"Come here! Take the young lady away and keep her under strict guard! As for this traitorous servant, beat him to death!"

The last two words were almost shouted out by Madam Wang with trembling lips.

No one knows who spread this matter, and now they can only push Lixia out and identify her as the murderer. Otherwise, Jiang Wei's reputation will be affected, and the Wang family will also be criticized.

Someone came forward soon, and before Lixia could struggle and beg for mercy, she was gagged and taken away.

Jiang Wei stared in a daze as Lixia was dragged away. She let go of Madam Wang's skirt and collapsed to the ground.

She was placed under house arrest.

"Jiang Wanyue, I must kill you!"

Jiang Wei was sent to her room. She swept away the things on the table. There was a sound of broken porcelain in the room. She clenched her fists with red eyes.

The newly assigned maid knelt at the door, trembling, and did not dare to come in.

The shadows of the trees were swaying outside the window. After witnessing all this, Yan Si left the Wang family quietly.

"Jiang Wei is quite arrogant," Jiang Wanyue sneered, trimming the branches with scissors in her hand, "If she really had the ability, she wouldn't have been in trouble every time."

Yan Si stood aside silently without saying anything.

"Miss, Miss!" Chunhe rushed in, and said breathlessly: "For some reason, those rumors outside were suppressed, and instead it was said that Lixia took the initiative to attack Miss."

Jiang Wanyue had guessed this result a long time ago, so she was not surprised at this moment.

One glory and one glory.

Jiang Wei was married to the Wang family by imperial decree. The other party was a member of the Wang family. In order to become an official in the court, the Wang family would not allow any stains. After all, Jiang Wei was still a lady of the Jiang family, so they could only find a scapegoat.

"It doesn't matter. Jiang Wei is also under house arrest. She won't cause any trouble in the short term."

Jiang Wanyue lowered her head and cut off a branch of flowers.

Chun He was still a little angry, stamping his feet and said, "Miss, you can't be so soft-hearted, what if you accidentally eat the cake?"

A flower bud was accidentally cut off, and Jiang Wanyue's hand holding the scissors paused. Yes, if Jiang Wei's plan had succeeded, she would be a cold corpse now.

However, she still couldn't let Jiang Wei die so easily. There were still many things that had not been investigated clearly, and the bullying that her original body had suffered must also be repaid first.

Jiang Wanyue's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and she murmured, "You're right, it seems that the mansion is too peaceful, we have to let them mess up themselves."

Chunhe didn’t understand what the young lady said, but fortunately the young lady listened to what she said, which was already good.

In the afternoon, Jiang Wanyue went to Jiang Cheng's study, and when she came out, she asked someone to lift the house arrest on Chen.

Chen thought that Jiang Cheng had softened his heart towards her, so she started to hang around in front of Jiang Wanyue that night, but Jiang Wanyue just smiled coldly.

The next day.

Jiang Wanyue suddenly received a letter from Xie Jingce, saying that he would take her to a place. She instinctively wanted to refuse because she didn't understand Xie Jingce's intention.

But thinking about the fact that Xie Jingce always appeared in the Ye Mansion before, he must know some truth about the extermination of the Ye Mansion. If he gets in touch with him more, maybe he can get something out of him.

In the end, she dressed up, took Yan Si and two maids out of the house, and took a carriage to the Regent's Palace.

"Where are you taking me?" Jiang Wanyue went straight to the point without beating around the bush.

Xie Jingce touched his nose and chuckled unhappily: "Miss Jiang is so straightforward, aren't you afraid of offending me?"

Jiang Wanyue wanted to roll her eyes at him, but the difference in status was too great, so she could only perfunctorily say, "Your Highness, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Xie Jingce took Jiang Wanyue's expression into his eyes and almost couldn't hold back his laughter: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'll take you somewhere."

He glanced at the two women and one man following Jiang Wanyue and said, "They don't have to follow. I'm here and I won't let you get into any danger."

Jiang Wanyue glanced at Xie Jingce suspiciously. A single man and a single woman?

Why does this sentence sound so... ambiguous?

Xie Jingce's ears turned red when Jiang Wanyue looked at him. He covered his lips and pretended to cough: "This king..."

"Okay, let's go."

At this moment, Jiang Wanyue withdrew her gaze, turned around and waved her hand, gracefully and neatly.

Xie Jingce had no choice but to hide his embarrassment again and followed.

Yan Si and the other two naturally stayed in the Regent's Palace.

Xie Jingce and Jiang Wanyue changed their clothes and left the city through the back door in a carriage.

In the carriage, Xie Jingce glanced at Jiang Wanyue, and seeing that she did not look surprised, he said, "I heard about what happened in the Su Mansion. If you want, just let Feiqin kill her."

Jiang Wanyue shook her head, seemingly not disliking the topic, and said, "There are still some things that have not been investigated clearly, so keeping her is still useful."

Moreover, if Jiang Wei was killed at this time, those people outside would definitely say that she killed Jiang Wei out of hatred because she poisoned her.

It's not worth it to bring disaster upon yourself for no reason.

Xie Jingce raised his eyebrows and said, "I also have a way to prevent people from finding out about you."

"No, I want to do it myself and let her die of despair little by little."

There was a flash of murderous intent in Jiang Wanyue's eyes.

"Jiang Wanyue" was her best friend in her previous life, but she was bullied by concubines during the years when she entered the palace. Jiang Ye used to be a bright and gentle elder brother, but he was poisoned by Chen's mother and daughter and became disabled.

In addition, in this life, Jiang Wei challenged her again and again, and she settled accounts with all the past and present lives.

Xie Jingce was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "If you need my help, just ask Feiqin to pass on the message."

As the two were talking, the carriage jolted and the driver's voice came from outside: "Sir, Miss, we've arrived."

Xie Jingce was the first to lift the curtain and walk down, then reached out his hand into the carriage.

Jiang Wanyue did not refuse, and she took Xie Jingce's hand and got off the carriage.

Anyway, they are already an engaged couple, so they should pretend to be nice in daily life and should not be vague, so as not to give people a handle to find fault with them.

What comes into view is a turquoise lake with ripples on the water caused by the breeze. Although it is autumn or winter, there are unknown small flowers blooming here, dotted on the ground, which is very beautiful.

Jiang Wanyue looked towards Xie Jingce, and coincidentally, Xie Jingce was also looking at her. Their eyes met, and Jiang Wanyue looked away unnaturally.

Xie Jingce raised his lips and smiled, and asked, "Does it look good? I finally found it."

As if asking for credit, Xie Jingce added the last sentence, and then stared at Jiang Wanyue with burning eyes, wanting to get a positive answer.

A breeze blew, which was not as cold as the bitter cold winds of autumn and winter. It made people feel very comfortable. Jiang Wanyue felt that the gloom of the past few days was swept away.
