Chapter 245 Husband
Chapter 245 Husband
When Jiang Yuanfeng came out of the dark room, Ji Bozhou was admiring the flowers and trees in his house with great interest.
Today, his eyes were once again opened to these mysterious and wonderful methods.
I just made a rough suggestion, wanting to keep Yuanyuan's body and mind by my side, but I didn't expect that Lord Jiang really had a way.
Fortunately, I met Lord Jiang, otherwise I would not be able to fulfill this wish on my own.
"Nephew, everything you want is ready!"
Jiang Yuanfeng shook the sachet in his hand and walked towards Ji Bozhou with a smile from a distance.
Ji Bozhou's eyes lit up, and he hurried over with his robe in hand: "Sir, is this ready?"
Jiang Yuanfeng handed the sachet to Ji Bozhou, "Hang it on your body at any time. When your loved one sees you, it will have an unexpected effect!"
Seeing Jiang Yuanfeng so confident, Ji Bozhou was also overwhelmed with emotion and immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Jiang!"
Jiang Yuanfeng smiled and waved his hand, "Go back and try! I have other important matters to attend to today, so I won't keep Si Luan here for now. As long as I can fulfill your wish, I'll have done my best!"
When Ji Bozhou heard him say this, he felt extremely grateful. He quickly bowed again and then left with his men.
……
Lu Xuan has been in a bad mood ever since he came back from the Shen Mansion.
Even though he had explained everything clearly to Shen Yuanci, he no longer had any expectations.
But after all, I was the one who hurt him, and I don’t know how long it will take for him to forget this kind of hurt.
Jiang Xing walked towards her leisurely and couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face.
"Ah Xuan, if you keep looking so sad, your husband will get jealous."
"Mm, it's really soft and tender. I've wanted to try it out for a long time!"
Ever since Lu Xuan was sure that he was the destined one, this man changed from his previous calm and composed demeanor and became more and more unscrupulous and shameless.
Lu Xuan's cheeks puffed up and she pushed his hand away.
But unexpectedly, she was immediately greeted with a wanton and teasing hug.
"Your Highness, let me go..." Lu Xuan was strangled a little too tightly by him, panting slightly and scolding him.
"Don't call me Prince." He said with a bit of arbitrariness.
"If not Prince, what should I call you?"
"Call my name."
"Jiang Xing?"
Jiang Xing then let her go, but rolled his eyes at her and said, "No."
Lu Xuan blinked twice, "Okay?"
Jiang Xing was helpless and poked her forehead lightly with his index finger. "Call me Yun Ce."
Her heart felt like it was hit by something, and Lu Xuan felt that every beat of her heart made a deafening sound in her ears.
His name is usually only used by people who are very close to him.
Calling it means that the identities are inseparable.
"What? You don't want to be called that?" Jiang Xingqingjun's face was filled with a look of infatuation and jealousy, following her closely. "But I remember that some people used to call me Siluan, and it was very easy to call me that!"
Lu Xuan's gaze was forced by him and he had nowhere to escape. "Are you investigating me behind my back?"
Ever since she was reborn, she never called Si Luan again. She always called him Prince, or Young Master Ji, or Ji Bozhou.
It was so intimate that she couldn't even scream.
So what this person was asking about was her past!
Seeing her resentment, Jiang Xing laughed instead. He sat on the armchair beside him and pulled her to sit on his lap.
"These are the news reported by the subordinates when I first met the princess."
His hands tightly grasped her waist, but his eyes wandered over her thoughtfully, with an ambiguous smile on his face, "Forget it, don't call me Yun Ce anymore. From now on, just call me husband!"
"Well, my husband is the best fit!"
Lu Xuan interrupted him quickly, "No, let's go with Yun Ce!"
Jiang Xing's eyes flashed with cunning, "No, my husband is still the best."
Seeing that he was in high spirits, Lu Xuan quickly changed the subject, "Alright, alright, I'll stop thinking about Shen Yuanci, okay?"
As she spoke, she raised her eyebrows and looked at him: "Didn't you say before that Sister Siyu's matter has not been resolved? It just so happens that you can tell me about what happened back then?"
"Want to escape? Who was it that came to me to have a baby?" Jiang Xing saw through her shy thoughts of wanting to escape and rubbed his chin on her shoulder.
Lu Xuan looked at the maids around her who were trying to hold back their laughter, her face flushed as if she was drunk.
She hurriedly whispered, "I give up. I never want any other man besides my prince anymore. Okay? Let's get down to business!"
Hearing this, Jiang Xing looked around and smiled triumphantly.
Then he tapped her lazily and calmly, and stopped teasing her with satisfaction.
Perhaps it was because Jiang Xing had promised Duke Anguo that he would get to the bottom of the matter, so he had a strong sense of responsibility for the matter in his mind. Therefore, he quickly understood what Lu Xuan had just said.
"I still have a vague memory of what happened back then. My brother was still the crown prince at the time, and he wanted to marry his concubine, who is now Empress Ji, so he let down the emperor's sister-in-law."
Lu Xuan wanted to get up from Jiang Xing, but this man noticed and held him down.
Therefore, she could only lower her head and glance at him, pretending on the surface that nothing had happened.
"At the time, it was rumored that Sister Siyu had committed suicide, but later the old uncle's spirit said that she was murdered. Furthermore, the old uncle, under the Emperor's orders, had searched for the prince, only to discover that the Crown Princess had been murdered in a secret passageway within the Eastern Palace. I want to know why the Emperor, the Crown Prince at the time, would arrange for someone to search for you."
Jiang Xing tapped his right cheek with his finger, his thoughts unconsciously drawn away. "I'm also baffled by this matter. On the day of the wedding, first my cousin Siyu came to see me, and then Lord Song said that the Emperor had also sent someone to look for me..."
Suddenly, a light flashed in Jiang Xing's mind, and his eyes suddenly determined, "First, cousin Siyu asked me to take Yan'er back to the Duke's Mansion, and then the emperor sent someone to look for me. But I didn't take Yan'er away, he was left in the palace at that time. If that's the case, then the emperor sent Master Song to look for me not because of Yan'er, but for something else!"
Lu Xuan nodded in agreement. "And do you remember, Old Master Song said at the time that the Crown Princess, Sister Siyu, was killed in a secret passage by the Crown Prince, the current Emperor?"
"It's just that we all agree that since the Emperor was so fond of my sister before, he wouldn't do such a thing. Even you are worried that the Emperor will think of Sister Siyu after seeing me.
But these two things are inherently contradictory. So there must be some secret in this matter that we are unaware of!"
Jiang Xing nodded, his eyes deep, and continued to recall what happened in the past.
"After Cousin Siyu left, war broke out in Annan, and General Lu Xuan was dispatched. I later wrote to Brother Lu, and he mentioned this. He said he'd suspected there was something else behind Empress Jingyi's death fifteen years earlier, and he'd been trying to investigate thoroughly, but he'd been repeatedly blocked, so he couldn't make a scene!"
"After he caused trouble, he was sent to Annan. Later, news spread that he had died. It can be said that he barely escaped death. Including me. My father saw that my other brothers had died one after another in the struggle for the throne, so he issued an imperial decree to exile me to Longchuan. I had just left the capital when news of my father's death spread!"
Lu Xuan listened to all this, his eyes filled with hatred, his chest burning with fire, "In fact, we can already identify the mastermind behind this!"
Jiang Xing gently held her hand to comfort her, "Are you talking about the Ji family?"
Lu Xuan nodded. "They were the ones who sent people to kill you and my elder brother. At the wedding, it was clear that Sister Siyu was the Crown Princess before the Emperor, but later Empress Ji became his concubine. The biggest beneficiaries of this whole thing are Empress Ji and the Ji family. Other than that, I can't think of any other masterminds behind this!"
Jiang Xing's fingers tapped the table unconsciously. "But in my opinion, that may not be the case."
"The whole thing seems to point to the Ji family. But the old uncle said that it was the emperor who killed cousin Siyu. But at that time, the emperor and cousin Siyu were very close, and I witnessed their deep love with my own eyes. So I always feel that it is unlikely that the emperor would do such a thing as killing my cousin just to marry a concubine..."
Lu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly. "Could it be that Sister Siyu disagreed with the Emperor taking a concubine, so there was a rift between the two, and then the Emperor joined forces with the Ji family?"
"It's unlikely." Jiang Xing pondered for a moment. "If the emperor really wanted to kill cousin Siyu, he didn't have to do it himself. With his status at that time, if he wanted to do it, he could just snap his fingers and the Ji family would do it. Why should he bear this bad reputation himself? Whether it's from the perspective of his feelings for cousin Siyu or from the perspective of power, there are loopholes!"
