After rebirth, the regent princess wanted to rebel every day
Chapter 14 Resentment
"Shaoguang Temple?" Jiang Wanyue was puzzled.
"Yes, Miss. I was afraid that my identity would be exposed, so I followed her to Shaoguang Temple and came back to report. But that woman was really strange. She actually went out through the back door of the temple." Bu surprised.
At this moment, the person Chunhe sent out also came back to report. After listening to what that person said, Chunhe walked up to Jiang Wanyue and whispered, "Miss, the second young lady went to see Madam Wang this morning."
Jiang Wanyue no longer wanted to say anything. She looked towards the direction of the palace and murmured, "Just wait and see."
After a brief silence, Jiang Cheng sent someone to inform Jiang Wanyue to attend the banquet.
Jiang Wanyue didn't think about it anymore. She just took things one step at a time.
Jiang Wanyue immediately changed her clothes and went out of the yard. When she reached the door, she found three carriages parked there. Jiang Wanyue was stunned for a moment, but she reacted quickly.
Jiang Cheng knew what Jiang Wei was thinking and separated the two on purpose, but this was exactly what Jiang Wanyue wanted.
Jiang Ye didn't have to attend the banquet due to health reasons.
After Jiang Wanyue greeted Jiang Cheng, she got on the carriage without even looking at Jiang Wei behind her.
Jiang Wei was behind him. She originally wanted to go up and say something to him, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know how to say them. She couldn't swallow them down either, but in the end she swallowed her anger.
Fortunately, the Shixin Earl's Mansion was at the foot of the imperial city, not too far from the palace, and could be reached in just a cup of tea.
Along the way, Jiang Cheng walked in front, as serious as ever.
Jiang Wei, on the other hand, wanted to talk to Jiang Wanyue all the time, but was given the cold shoulder by Jiang Wanyue several times. When she reached the gate of Chongde Hall, Jiang Wei finally couldn't help it anymore. She stopped and sneered at Jiang Wanyue's back, "Just wait, I will make you lose your reputation!"
Jiang Wanyue followed Jiang Cheng like a well-behaved little rabbit. After they sat down, Jiang Wanyue noticed that the Wang family had also come with people.
And Wang Hongyi obviously noticed Jiang Wanyue as well, and there was a fierce look in his eyes as if he wanted to skin Jiang Wanyue alive.
Whatever, I just beat him up this morning, so it's only natural for him to bear a grudge. Jiang Wanyue didn't seem annoyed, she sighed casually and sat on the right side of Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Wei had taken her seat without her knowing when, and as she sat down she looked calmly at Madam Wang across from her.
Many officials had already arrived, and they were all talking to their colleagues. Jiang Wanyue felt bored, so she simply thought about why the Wang family came.
According to the laws of the Linyuan Dynasty, the status of merchants was equal to that of commoners, but not lower.
The Wang family has been doing business for generations, and it is said that they have also expanded their business overseas. Since then, they have accumulated wealth for several generations, and there are rumors that they are rich enough to rival a country. The current emperor Xie Jinghong has only been on the throne for about three years, and it is time to stabilize the government, so it is inevitable to win over major families and capable people.
Money is the direct way.
In her previous life, when she became queen, she heard her father sigh that the national treasury was empty, while the Wang family happened to have plenty of money.
After thinking about it this way, Jiang Wanyue finally understood.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has arrived—"
When Jiang Wanyue heard the voice, she paused and clenched her hands into fists under the table.
Sure enough, two figures appeared outside the palace. The emperor and the empress came hand in hand in gorgeous palace costumes. In the eyes of everyone, it was a symbol of love between the emperor and the empress.
Everyone was attracted by this scene, but no one noticed Jiang Wanyue's surging emotions at the moment.
She didn't dare to look up, and could only pretend that she couldn't bear to look at the holy face and lowered her head. Her nails were almost digging into her flesh, and only she knew the intensity of the hatred in her eyes.
Xie Jinghong, Yao Yu'an, we finally meet again.
In my last life, I lost miserably, but in this life, I will make you pay a heavy price for your previous actions!
In a trance, she remembered the oath she made before her death in her previous life, and Jiang Wanyue sneered.
There was another round of compliments, and Jiang Wanyue knelt down and stood up like a machine, always keeping her head down.
Mixed in the crowd, she is just a small character.
But it is often the insignificant little people who end up causing huge storms, isn't it?
"The Regent has arrived—"
Eunuch Gao's voice sounded outside the palace again.
Jiang Wanyue had calmed down a lot at this moment. He was just a traitor and not worth her attention.
She looked outside the palace.
The young man was still dressed in black, with a faint smile on his lips, but it seemed to be full of contempt, as if he disdained to come to such an occasion.
Today's protagonists have all arrived. After a round of formalities, Xie Jinghong ordered the people to enter the banquet.
Jiang Wanyue felt an inquiring gaze on her. She raised her head to look in the direction of Xie Jingce, but Xie Jingce had lowered his eyes, as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Wanyue secretly looked up at the emperor and empress at the top. It was really ironic that her body was still warm and a new queen was appointed, while the court officials still praised the harmony between the emperor and empress.
Xie Jinghong, who was sitting at the top, glanced around the hall, then looked at Xie Jingce and said with a smile: "Royal brother, you have repelled the barbarians for our dynasty this time, which can be said to be a great achievement!"
Xie Jingce gave Xie Jinghong a cold look.
Before Xie Jingce could speak, Xie Jinghong picked up his wine glass and toasted everyone, "Today's banquet is to celebrate the regent's triumphant return! You don't have to be so formal!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Although this was said, no one dared to be truly informal and all bowed in fear and trepidation.
Jiang Wanyue sneered in her heart. Xie Jinghong was good at doing these superficial things. She looked at Xie Jingce again, and seeing that he had no expression on his face, she felt slightly relieved.
But when he looked at Xie Jingce this moment, there was still some inquiry in his eyes.
Talk about resentment?
How could there not be?
Without knowing Xie Jingce's identity, the Ye family raised him as their own son until he was eighteen years old. Then he rose to a high position overnight, second only to the emperor, and yet he did not save the Ye family from the dire straits!
However, he went to the border on the eve of the Ye family's extermination. Did Xie Jingce deliberately avoid the matter because he knew about it, or did he know nothing about it?
What role did Xie Jingce play in this? Who was the man in black last night? Was it him or his men?
All kinds of mysteries lingered in Jiang Wanyue's mind, and she felt like she was trapped in a fog and couldn't find her direction.
However, Xie Jingce could still enjoy these great achievements so calmly. Should he laugh at his parents' kindness or the fact that the royal family has been ruthless since ancient times?
Jiang Wanyue played with the wine glass and smiled at herself.
At this moment, Jiang Wanyue was still immersed in her own thoughts and didn't even notice that the maid came to bring her a fruit plate.
"Bang!"
The wine jug on the table was accidentally knocked over, and the wine flowed out, flowing along the corner of the table to Jiang Wanyue's knees, wetting a spot of her clothes there.
"Miss, please forgive me!" The maid knelt down instantly, her body trembling.
Jiang Wanyue also woke up at this time, and most of the alcohol she had just drunk was sober. Seeing this scene in front of her, what happened today flashed quickly through her mind.
Jiang Wanyue didn't know whether to laugh or not. It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
