Jiang Xuening took people to live in a big house, and the maid Yunni Queling Caiyue who stayed behind at that time was now able to stand alone.

Together with Qing He, the four big maids she should have around her are finally here.

Jiang Xuening said with satisfaction, "Master Caiyue Qinghe, Master Yunni Queling is here, the four of you will discuss the specific matters."

With the maid taking care of things around her, Jiang Xuening focused on the political situation in Jiangnan.

Jiangnan is rich and has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, and it is also a place valued by the emperor. Those who serve as officials here are basically the emperor's confidants.

Jiangzhou's term here is about to end and he will return to Beijing to report on his duties in three months. She guessed that this was the reason why Jiangzhou urgently summoned her back.

To be able to stay in the heart of the emperor and to end his term safely in such a position, Jiangzhou has never been a bad person.

Jiang Xuening waited for her nominal father to take the initiative.

Every day, she took people and account books with her, and began to check out the dowry and shop left by her mother in a swaggering manner, with strong plans to take everything back by force.

The ladies in the back house were almost all gossiping about this matter.

Qin Weiyun was so angry that her chest hurt and there was nothing she could do. She was the princess and the legitimate daughter, so her status put her down.

All kinds of invitations flew into her place like snowflakes, all of them inviting her to the banquet.

Jiang Xuening didn't look or go. The situation in Jiangnan was too complicated, and she had no intention of ending.

After she had almost finished checking her accounts, there was finally news from Jiangzhou.

Caiyue reported back, "The chief steward of the Jiang Mansion was ordered to take the young lady back to the house. He said that the master is waiting for the young lady at home."

Jiang Xuening had been waiting for this moment, and she said calmly, "Let's clean up and go back."

She changed her clothes, took Caiyue and Yun Ni with her, and boarded the carriage sent by the Shen Mansion.

The butler did not dare to raise his head and look directly at her, and was very respectful the whole time.

After arriving at Shen's Mansion, the carriage went directly into the backyard.

The maid in Jiangzhou's study said loudly, "I have met the princess."

Jiang Xuening got off the carriage and said, "Lead the way."

Jiang Xuening looked at the scenery in the house as she walked, feeling strange and familiar at the same time, a very subtle feeling.

When she arrived at the door of the study, the maid stopped and opened the door for her, "Princess, please."

Jiang Xuening paused and walked in. Jiang Zhou was sitting behind the desk. He was still a handsome uncle, but his official power was getting heavier.

Jiangzhou couldn't take his eyes away from her face, and even became distracted.

She is his legitimate daughter, she has been tall and cute since she was a child. I have also been held in his hands, loved and pampered by him.

He would cruelly leave her in the countryside just because of her face.

Jiangzhou sighed, but he still didn't escape after all.

When Jiang Xuening grew up, she really looked like that person. Although their temperaments are one cool and one majestic, upon closer inspection they are very similar, especially those eyes.

Jiang Xuening touched her face, "Father, doesn't he recognize me?"

Jiangzhou asked with a sharp look, "Isn't it because of this face that you rely on me so much in Qingzhou?"

The most favored concubines in the emperor's harem all looked similar to that one, which was a tacit secret among everyone.

Jiangzhou could already predict that if she returned to Beijing staring at this face, she would cause a bloody storm.

Jiang Xuening smiled, "I am indeed very satisfied with this face."

She believed that as long as she showed up in Shengjing, some people would have nightmares.

The malice on her face was so obvious that Jiangzhou's temples twitched, "Jiang Xuening, I hope you understand one thing. You are not only the granddaughter of the Gu family, but also the daughter of the Jiang family."

Jiang Xuening sat down casually and said casually, "So?"

Jiangzhou warned her, "Can you think about the Jiang family before you do anything? Do you want the Jiang family to follow in the footsteps of the Gu family?"

These words were extremely serious, and the smile on Jiang Xuening's face disappeared instantly, and her expression became cold.

Why did Jiangzhou look at her face and think it was a disaster. But it is impossible for her not to go back.

The father and daughter faced off silently, neither of them looking away.

Jiangzhou softened his tone, "In the past few years, you have been exercising power in Qingzhou to expand your power. What exactly do you want to do?"

Jiangzhou couldn't understand her brain circuit and wanted to open her head to see.

The good daughter-in-law of the Jiang family is not good enough and must fight for power and gain. Just like the next "Gu Mingyue" style, this set off alarm bells in Jiangzhou.

Jiang Xuening looked directly into his eyes, "My mother didn't die of illness back then, right?"

Jiangzhou's expression remained unchanged, "She was too sad. The entire Gu family was wiped out, which was a huge blow to her. It would be better to die of illness than to be executed."

Jiangzhou cleverly avoided her question and did not answer directly.

"Don't be deceived and feel unwilling to give in. The Gu family is just unlucky. The change of imperial power has always been bloody."

Jiang Zhou calmly reasoned with her, hoping that she would listen.

Jiang Xuening lowered her eyes and raised her lips, "Father said it lightly. If it was the Jiang family that was wiped out, would you still be so calm and calm? Would you still think it's normal?"

Jiangzhou looked at her, "You are the daughter of the Jiang family."

"But those who died are also my relatives."

Jiangzhou really regretted it, "I shouldn't have softened my heart and allowed you to leave three years ago."

Now that her wings have matured, it is no longer difficult to control.

Jiang Xuening curled her lips sarcastically, "Don't worry, as long as the Jiang family pays off what they owe me, I will not bring trouble to the Jiang family."

How could Jiangzhou feel relieved? He didn't dare to gamble. You can only nip everything in the cradle.

He said, "I asked you to come back this time because I have something to tell you."

Jiang Xuening listened quietly, she really couldn't imagine what was going on.

Jiang Zhou said in a shocking voice, "When your mother was still alive, she made a marriage arrangement for you. You are already fifteen, so it's time to put this matter on the agenda."

Jiang Xuening looked at him suspiciously, "You're not trying to tie me up with a marriage out of thin air, are you?"

There was nothing wrong with this in my memory, so how could a marriage suddenly appear?

Jiangzhou took out a jade pendant that was worth a lot at first glance, "This is the token exchanged back then. You were still in your infancy when this marriage was arranged, so it's normal that you don't remember it."

Jiang Xuening still found it unbelievable that a fiancé suddenly showed up to her.

Jiangzhou didn't care what she thought and said directly, "The other party is not an ordinary person. He is the third son of Duke Xuan. It is impossible for such a marriage to be fake."

It is true that the more prominent a family is, the more cautious it is in matters of marriage.

No matter how good Jiangzhou is, it can't lie about this matter, which means that this marriage does exist.

Jiang Xuening stared at the jade pendant with a twinkle in her eye, "Are you sure she still recognizes it?"

Now and then, her current identity is very sensitive and will make many people avoid her.
