The Crown Princess is reborn, and the three treasures compete to burn the family tree

"Yes, His Majesty took the county lady into the palace a few days ago."

The person from the Imperial Observatory spoke quickly, and couldn't help but feel pity when he looked at Jiang Li.

It has been several days since the Five Poisons Banquet, and almost everyone in Kyoto, young or old, male or female, knows about the scandal at the Yongning Marquis' Mansion.

Xie Jun had an affair with his adopted sister who he had raised in his mansion for more than 20 years. Although the marriage was granted by the emperor, it could not cover up the nature of incest.

The most innocent among them are the Crown Prince's Consort Jiang Li and her child Xie Yulang.

The sister-in-law became Jiang Li's sister who shared a husband, and the aunt became Xie Yulang's mother.

Especially I heard that Jiang Li had a very good relationship with Xiao Yan, and Xie Yulang also liked Xiao Yan very much.

This is a double betrayal.

Unfortunately, under pressure from the emperor, Jiang Li had to agree to personally preside over the wedding of Xie Jun and Xiao Yan that day.

Therefore, she had to be present to receive the imperial decree granting marriage and to select a date and an auspicious ceremony, which had nothing to do with Jiang Li and were things she could have completely avoided.

Moreover, given the emperor's favor for Xiao Yan, Jiang Li and Xie Yulang's life would probably be even more difficult.

"Princess, please accept the order."

The eunuch delivering the imperial edict also said, "After His Majesty took the county lady into the palace, he gave her the imperial surname and allowed her to live in Yimei Palace. Although His Majesty still cannot canonize County Lady Xiao Yan as a princess, he treats her no differently than a princess."

Yimei Palace was the residence of Concubine Mei in the past, and the name was changed to commemorate Concubine Mei.

The current emperor has not changed this name since he ascended the throne.

Moreover, several favorite concubines once lived in this palace.

Including the abandoned Jiang Tan.

Yimei Palace is almost a symbol of the emperor's favor.

Although Xiao Yan is the emperor's sister, the fact that she can live in Yimei Palace proves how much the emperor loves her.

If Jiang Li couldn't bear the anger for a while, Xiao Yan just needed to say a few words to the emperor.

Then Jiang Li is in big trouble.

"can."

Jiang Li's eyes showed strange color. Xiao Yan was resurrected only five days after leaving the capital.

This was within her expectations, but she did not expect that the emperor would favor Xie Yan so much.

This time, these should be all Xiao Yan's trump cards, with no other backup plans.

This way, it would be much safer for her to take action now.

She smiled and said, "Just that the eunuch and the others must inform His Majesty and the county lady when you report back that the prince is unable to receive the imperial edict himself due to a broken leg."

Xiao Yan is in love with Xie Jun and dreams of marrying him.

Now we know that Xie Jun’s leg was broken, and it was at the hands of bandits.

With new and old grudges piling up, once the news that the Anguo Mansion was raising bandits came, she didn't even need to do anything, Xie Yan, this mad dog, could tear the Anguo Mansion apart.

Although Jiang Tan was deposed from her position as imperial concubine, she still remained in the palace.

When Jiang Tan learned that Yimei Palace was given to Xie Xiaoyan, perhaps he could still bear it, but what if the Anguo Mansion was destroyed in Xiao Yan's hands.

Then Jiang Tan would definitely burn his boats and drag Xiao Yan into the water.

By then, even if the emperor protected Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan would not be able to get away with it. By the time she married into the marquis's mansion, she would already be on the verge of death.

Driving out the wolf and swallowing the tiger, you kill two birds with one stone.

"It's natural!"

"Don't worry, Princess!"

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict and several people from the Imperial Observatory all agreed, as this task was originally a thankless task.

Jiang Li's willingness to take over was already a big help, and after reporting the truth, any subsequent problems would have nothing to do with their errand boy.

However, Xie Jun's leg was broken by the bandits...

This news is really explosive.

No one in Kyoto knows about it until now.

It was also the first time they heard of a noble lord breaking his leg.

Especially when they were attacked by bandits...

It seems that I heard a few days ago that the troops under the command of Prince Yong, who had been silent for a long time, went out to encircle and suppress the bandits around Kyoto.

Could this be a coincidence or were these really the bandits?

After receiving the imperial edict, Jiang Li put away the auspicious gifts for the selection of the date. However, the eunuch who delivered the edict and the people from the Imperial Observatory were not in a hurry to leave.

The person from the Imperial Observatory asked in a low voice, "Crown Princess, is the Crown Prince's leg really broken?"

"Really? It's broken."

Jiang Li nodded, "I went to Yufeng a few days ago and accidentally encountered bandits. Unfortunately, the prince..."

She covered her lips, but the corners of her lips, hidden by the embroidered handkerchief, were raised and could not be suppressed at all.

"Do you want to confirm it with your own eyes? Although you can't enter through the main door, you can see it from the window."

"That's not necessary!"

Several people hurriedly shook their heads, appearing to be very suspicious. If they looked at it, they would offend Jiang Li.

Then they quickly said goodbye and left the mansion.

Not long after, I returned to the Mei Palace.

Xiao Yan, wearing a medical veil, quickly stood up from the throne.

"What! The bandit broke his leg?!"

When she first heard the bad news, she couldn't bear it for a while.

My body was swaying and I almost fainted.

"County Lady, be careful!"

The palace maid hurried forward to support her. Xiao Yan slowed down her breathing and pinched the arm of the palace maid who was supporting her.

He said sternly: "When will my face be healed?"

The palace maid's face was pale, and the arm that was pinched by Xiao Yan was already soaked with blood.

But she didn't dare to dodge, because if she dodged she would be beaten even worse.

She endured the pain and said tremblingly: "County Lady, please calm down. The imperial physician said it will take at least two months."

Xiao Yan's scarred face had become famous throughout the capital, especially since she was going to marry her adoptive brother Xie Jun, who had been her biological brother for more than 20 years.

Xiao Yan's reputation in Kyoto is now in ruins. The new plays in the opera troupe and the new stories told by the storytellers in the teahouse are all stories that denounce incest between brother and sister.

There is a traditional story that incestuous brothers and sisters were beaten to death with sticks.

There are also newly written ones, which are almost exactly based on the stories written by Xie Jun and Xie Yan.

Even young children can sing their songs.

It would be the same even if Xiao Yan was of royal blood. She just changed her name on the surface, but in reality she was trying to cover up the truth. Everyone knew they were the ones being talked about.

"waste!"

Xiao Yan let go of the palace maid's arm and slapped her in the face.

"County Lord, calm down!"

Apart from kneeling down, the palace maid didn't dare to say anything else. If she opened her mouth at this time, she would be beaten and scolded even more by Xiao Yan.

After Xiao Yan was brought to the palace by the emperor, the emperor ordered the imperial hospital to do its best to remove Xiao Yan's scar.

Ordinary scars are difficult to remove, let alone the scar on Xiao Yan's face that almost disfigured her.

Even if the Imperial Physician personally took action, he could only guarantee a 70% to 80% improvement.

Moreover, it will take a long time, probably several years.

But Xiao Yan couldn't wait that long, and forced the imperial physician to cure her before her wedding.

That’s not all. Whenever he was unhappy, he would use this as an excuse to insult and abuse the palace maids at will.

"How could it take so long! You are all useless! Jiang Li's face was completely healed in just a short time!"

Xiao Yan was still not satisfied after beating him and continued to curse him.

"How can I leave the palace if my face doesn't get better? How can I see my brother?"

Nanny Qian's face was gloomy. She waited for Xiao Yan to scold her for a long time. When she stopped to drink tea, she stood up.

"County Lady, calm down."
