Jiang Wanwan lowered her eyes and avoided Rong Muhan's gaze.

She was worried that her murderous intentions would be revealed and Rong Muhan would become suspicious.

There was a hint of coldness between Rong Xi's brows and eyes, and he said leisurely:

"Second Prince, food and wages at the border are tight. Can you think of a countermeasure?"

Rong Muhan's hair stood on end, and a chill hit his face.

Emperor Rongxi was blaming him for not taking care of the country's important affairs, but instead meddling in other people's family affairs!

"Uncle Huang taught you the right lesson!"

When everyone heard Rong Xi's words, they were stunned. The prince actually held the second prince accountable on such an occasion.

A smile appeared on Jiang Wanwan's lips, Rong Xi was supporting her!

Rong Muhan had doubts in his heart, why did Rong Xi say something to help the sixth lady of the Jiang family!

Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, Cao Yujiang said nothing.

Mrs. Jiang glanced at where Rong Xi was sitting and decided to compromise.

"Let's stop the marriage issue today and discuss it later!"

The corners of Jiang Wanwan's lips curled up: "Since we are not equal wives, then we are concubines. Aunt Cao, did you hear what my grandmother said clearly!?"

Mrs. Jiang's eyes widened. When did she say that she would demote Cao to a concubine?

She wanted to correct Jiang Wanwan's words, but when she thought of the prince's presence, she could only keep silent.

Cao Yufeng was ashamed, ashamed and angry, and closed her eyes as if she was about to faint.

Jiang Wanwan's lips curved into a hint of sarcasm.

Jiang Bonian's career is more important to Mrs. Jiang than anything else.

Whether Cao Yufeng is his wife or concubine is not that important to Mrs. Jiang.

Both mother and son are unsentimental people, and their face and future are more important than anything else.

Jiang Yun gritted her silver teeth and trembled all over. She turned from a legitimate daughter into a concubine!

In front of the dignitaries, it was certain that my mother would become a concubine!

She was so furious that she wanted to crush the Liu family and her daughter into pieces and send them to the eighteenth level of hell!

Jiang Wanwan felt happy when she saw Jiang Yun's unwilling and humiliated expression.

"Seventh sister, Aunt Cao is not feeling well. Please help her go back to her room to rest!"

The resentment in Jiang Yun's eyes surged, and she wanted to tear Jiang Wanwan apart!

"Yun'er, take your mother down to rest!"

Mrs. Cao and Mrs. Chang persuaded Jiang Yun that staying here would be a joke!

The Cao family originally came to support the Cao family, but they didn't expect that the Cao family had no hope of finding a wife and became a concubine. It was really embarrassing!

Jiang Yun felt indignant, supported Cao, and prepared to leave.

Jiang Jinning also came to help Mrs. Cao at this time. Jiang Yun looked aggrieved and cried: "Fifth brother, sixth sister is so cruel, my mother was so angry that she fainted!"

Jiang Jinning turned back to look at Liu and Jiang Wanwan fiercely, why didn't they die earlier, so that what happened today wouldn't have happened.

Before Cao Yufeng and the others left the birthday banquet, a group of imperial guards rushed in and surrounded the entire birthday banquet.

Everyone was shocked and didn't know what happened.

Hou Jie, the commander of the Royal Forest Army, walked in boldly, with a serious face and looked around for a week.

Seeing Rong Xi and Rong Muhan present, Hou Jie quickly walked up to them, bowed his head and saluted.

"The last general Hou Jie has met the prince and the second prince!"

A smile appeared on Rong Muhan's lips: "No courtesy."

Rong Xi didn't even raise his eyes and drank tea by himself.

"Your Majesty, Second Prince, please forgive me if I have offended you in any way!"

Hou Jie did not expect that the prince and the second prince would be in Jiang Mansion.

The ladies and ladies were in a panic.

Jiang Wanwan supported Liu Su and stood in an inconspicuous place.

Mrs. Jiang was supported by someone and stood in the middle of the crowd.

Jiang Yun and Jiang Jinning protected Cao Yufeng on the left and right.

Jiang Bonian scolded: "Commander Hou, you broke into Jiang Mansion for no reason and searched in the west. What's the point of this!?"

After all, he, Jiang Bonian, is also a third-rank official in the court. Today, his mansion was forcibly searched. Where is his face?

"Master Jiang, please be quiet, I am arresting spies from the enemy country!"

Hou Jie had a low status in front of the prince and the second prince.

But Jiang Bonian and Hou Jie didn't take him seriously.

What! Enemy spy! Hou Jie's excuses for finding trouble became more and more exaggerated, and Jiang Bonian was extremely angry!

What a Hou Jie, who is usually very arrogant and arrogant because of the prince's power!

There was a wedding banquet in Jiang Mansion today, and he led troops to break in. He clearly didn't take him seriously!

"Commander Hou, if you can't find the spies today, the Japanese officials will meet with His Majesty tomorrow to ask for an explanation!"

Hou Jie looked at Jiang Bonian coldly: "Lord Jiang, the Imperial Guard saw the spy escaping into the Jiang Mansion with his own eyes. Could it be that the spy's accomplice is Lord Jiang!?"

Jiang Bonian's heart skipped a beat, but his face remained calm.

"There is no proof, don't talk nonsense!"

"Whether this is nonsense or not, you will find out later! Come, search!"

Hou Jie held the handle of the knife with his right hand and raised his left hand.

"Yes."

The Royal Forest Army quickly ran towards the Jiang Mansion's inner residence and searched in the west.

Rong Muhan had doubts. He didn't believe that Jiang Bonian was colluding with spies.

He had already found out all eight generations of Jiang Bonian's ancestors. It was impossible for Jiang Bonian to collude with spies.

Looking at Jiang Bonian, Jiang Bonian shook his head slightly, indicating that the matter had nothing to do with him.

Rong Xi pursed his thin lips with a hint of coolness, and his eyes fell on Jiang Wanwan. He wondered if what happened today had anything to do with her.

Jiang Wanwan saw Rong Xi looking at her with a probing light in his eyes.

She was a little overwhelmed and blinked innocently.

The Royal Forest Army searched Jiang Mansion from top to bottom, but could not find any spies.

Jiang Bonian put his hands behind his back and snorted coldly: "Commander Hou, where are the enemy's spies!?"

Jiang Mansion has been surrounded by him, and it is impossible for the spy to escape. Hou Jie firmly believes that the spy is in Jiang Mansion.

"Report to the commander, there are suspicious blood stains near Jiang Mansion's ancestral hall!"

Hou Jie glanced at Jiang Bonian and said mockingly: "Look carefully, don't let Mr. Jiang down!"

Jiang Bonian's eyelids twitched and he began to feel uneasy.

After burning a stick of incense, the Royal Forest Army caught a man covered in blood.

Mrs. Jiang's mouth was wide open, but she couldn't say a word. She looked at Jiang Bonian anxiously.

Jiang Bonian felt weak all over. There was really an enemy spy. Now he couldn't explain clearly.

Hou Jie grabbed the spy's hair and pulled it back, revealing the spy's face.

The spy had multiple wounds on his body and his mouth was bloody.

Losing too much blood, the spy fell into a coma.

"Master Jiang, what else do you have to say?"

Jiang Bonian said solemnly: "I don't know this person!"

"Don't you know? Why did the spy come to Jiang Mansion?"

Hou Jie sneered and asked Jiang Bonian.

Jiang Bonian frowned: "Today's Jiang Mansion's birthday party, the spies must have taken this opportunity to sneak in!"

"Report to the commander, a package was found in Chunyuan, the back house!"

Jiang Wanwan lowered her eyes, hoping that Cao Yufeng would like this gift prepared for her.

Cao Yufeng frowned. This package was not the one she placed in Meiyuan. How could it be found in her yard?

Hou Jie opened the package, and a booklet fell to the ground, showing the Dongling Kingdom's military deployment plan!
