My husband is cold and heartless, we are reborn and divorced

Jiang Wan turned her head to look outside the door, and the kingfisher-feathered pearl earrings hanging on her earlobes swayed gently.

The afterglow of the setting sun entered through the window, climbing onto the beautiful woman's golden and jade clothes, and her delicate face was also reflected in the golden light.

Tiny dust particles float in the air, interweaving into a thin veil in the soft light.

The familiar figure outside the door was wearing a scarlet robe covered with gold thread and decorated with a peacock. He stood on one foot on a cliff above the sea. Between the pavilions of the fairy mountain, pine and cypress stood tall, surrounded by auspicious clouds and a rising red sun.

Jiang Wan rarely saw him wearing official robes.

Now, when he looked at it, he actually felt that this official robe looked better than any other clothes he wore. It made him stand upright and dignified, like a painting.

Jiang Wan didn’t know Fu Yan would come here, otherwise she would have left early.

When Prince Wei saw Fu Yan standing outside the house, he suddenly remembered something.

He said to Xiao Yun in his arms, "I made an appointment with Xingzhou yesterday. Today, after he finishes his work, we will discuss how to deal with the recent incident at Ruyi Teahouse."

The Prince of Wei was the left prime minister of the second rank, in charge of six ministries and twenty-four departments. Fu Yan was the Minister of Punishments, and he supervised the Inspection Department, the Capital Official Department, the Bi Department, and the Sima Department.

Originally, it was thought that Ruyi Teahouse was only engaged in ordinary human trafficking, but after investigation, it was found that it was deeply involved.

Even the nobles were involved, and Fu Yan only investigated one or two of them, which made the emperor very angry, so he ordered the two of them to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Xiao He had never seen Fu Yan before, but she recognized him when the servant who led Fu Yan just now called him Master Fu.

Xiao Yun is not in a good condition to meet guests now.

Prince Wei went out first and wanted to invite Fu Yan to the study.

Prince Wei was also puzzled and wondered what was going on with Fu Yan today.

I have told the servants that there is no need to inform them when Master Fu comes today, and they can just go to the study.

But Fu Yan came to the inner house, which was against etiquette.

"Master Fu! Jiang Shi harmed me today! She has a vicious mind! She is not worthy of being a wife!"

Xiao He screamed, veins on her forehead bulged, and her eyes were bloodshot!

Fu Yan, however, passed her lightly, walked to the door, and said to the inside: "I originally wanted to come to discuss matters with the Left Prime Minister, but when I heard that my wife was here and that the Princess of the County was seriously ill, I came to see her. I did not mean to offend you."

Fu Yan's father unfortunately died while trying to save the current emperor. Fu Yan was just a little boy that year, but he found the water source alone when his father was injured and died and the emperor was unconscious.

This will allow His Majesty to hold on until the Jinwu Guards arrive.

Therefore, Fu Yan was granted the title of Duke before he reached adulthood, becoming the youngest duke. He was also granted the right not to perform formalities when meeting people with higher official positions than himself or the emperor himself.

However, Fu Yan, perhaps because he lost his parents at a young age, became the head of the household at the age of just a few years old and supported the huge Zhenguo Mansion. He was cautious and prudent in his conduct and was upright.

Whether meeting a common official or the emperor, he would never use his privileges.

"It's okay. There's no need for us to talk about this." Prince Wei walked out of the house and looked coldly at Xiao He who was still talking nonsense on the ground.

He coldly rebuked: "It's just that this wicked slave has bad conduct. Now that she is being reprimanded, she still slanders your wife. It's the fault of my Prince's Mansion. Come! Cut out her tongue!"

"No! Don't! I didn't slander you! She was the one who said she wanted to marry me to Master Fu as a concubine! I didn't slander you, every word she said is true!"

"Jiang Wan promised me personally!"

Fu Yan's expression fluctuated when he heard the word "take a concubine".

The string in Jiang Wan's heart finally broke.

She glanced at Fu Yan with a flickering look in her eyes, then lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze.

The matter of taking a concubine was just her rhetoric, but she didn't expect that Fu Yan overheard it.

Fortunately, Fu Yan was asked to leave by Prince Wei before he could pursue Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan was able to take a break, but when he returned tonight, he would definitely be questioned.

After the men left, Xiao Yun took Jiang Wan's hand and walked to the couch and sat down. "Thank you very much, Madam. If it weren't for you, I don't know how long I would have to endure the hardship."

"No need to thank me. I just gave you two a way out. What happens next is up to you guys."

Jiang Wan changed the subject, "But remember not to put all your hopes on a man. Maybe he likes you very much now, and in a year or two he will like someone else very much too."

Xiao Yun held Jiang Wan's hand tightly, pondering what Jiang Wan said.

Of course, she still had no love for the prince.

It was just a show just now.

But she didn't say this.

She is the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, but she is such a failure that she can't even protect her own personal maid.

People have to admit that sometimes, it is time to show weakness.

Xiao Yun's eyes were filled with gratitude. "Thank you for your help today, Madam. If you don't mind, we can be friends in the future. If you need anything, I will definitely help you."

"I'm so happy, how could I dislike it?" Jiang Wan said with a smile.

In his previous life, Jiang Wan was a flatterer and only made friends with people who could help him and the Fu family.

The only real friend he has is the one from the Mu family, but unfortunately he also...
