The birthday banquet at Prince Qing’s mansion did not end until 2:15 pm.
Taking advantage of the good opportunity when the Baling Prince's wife was talking to someone, Jiang came close to Jiang Changning again and said, "My wife and I hit it off right away. Do you have a chance to visit my wife?"
"No chance." Jiang Changning replied coldly.
Jiang was surprised by the refusal so decisively.
While she was stunned, Jiang Changning supported the concubine and took Princess Kang Ren out.
When they arrived at the ceremonial gate, Prince Jin was already waiting beside the carriage.
Prince Jin noticed that Jiang Changning's skirt was stained with tea and frowned slightly, but did not ask. Instead, he stepped forward to help the concubine, "Mother."
The Concubine Dowager still took Princess Kang Ren in the first carriage, while Prince Jin and Jiang Changning got on the second carriage.
After settling into the carriage, Jiang Changning took the initiative to say, "Xu spilled a cup of tea on me."
"What is she going to do?" asked King Jin in a deep voice.
"Kidnap me out to meet someone." Jiang Changning said truthfully.
"Who?"
"Xu said it was the emperor, but I didn't go there, so I don't know whether it's true or not."
"She has no reason to lie." When Prince Jin went to the palace to express his gratitude after his marriage to Jiang Changning, he had already sensed that the emperor had coveted Jiang Changning.
However, Prince Jin did not expect that the emperor would really disregard the dignity of a monarch and do such a shameless thing.
King Jin stretched out his arms and pulled Jiang Changning into his arms, "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."
Jiang Changning was stunned. She thought Prince Jin would blame her for attracting so many men.
Jiang Changning was quite satisfied with the King of Jin's reaction. He snuggled in his arms obediently, with the corners of his lips raised, "I stuffed the branch into Xu's mouth. She was the one who was wronged."
"She is the daughter of a nobleman and the daughter-in-law of a royal family, yet she did something so shameful. Even if you beat her to death, it would not be unfair to her." There was an undercurrent in the deep eyes of Prince Jin.
The Prince Qing’s Mansion really thought he was a vegetarian. They even dared to help the Emperor plot against his princess. Everyone in the Prince Qing’s Mansion deserves to die!
After returning to Prince Jin's Mansion, the couple sent the concubine to Liuxuanyuan.
"You've been busy all day. Go back to the yard and rest. You don't have to come over later." The concubine was sympathetic to her son.
"My son, I'm leaving." Prince Jin came out of the house, told the servants to serve him well, and then returned to Rujing Courtyard with Jiang Changning.
On the way, he met Zhou who was walking on the corridor with her maid.
When Zhou saw the two, she bowed and said, "I greet the prince and princess. I pay my respects to the prince and princess. Long live the prince and long live the princess."
Jiang Changning raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the first one who couldn't help herself would be Zhou. She thought it would be Park.
When the King of Jin walked past Zhou, Jiang Changning stopped and said, "It's cold and windy here, so you'd better wear more clothes to avoid getting sick."
"Thank you for your concern, Princess. I will go back to the yard now." Zhou said.
Prince Jin looked back and saw that there was no mockery on Jiang Changning's face, and his eyes flickered slightly.
After walking for a while, King Jin said, "She won't thank you."
Jiang Changning chuckled and said nonchalantly, "I do what I want to do. Whether she appreciates it or not is her business."
Returning to Rujing Courtyard, Prince Jin took a step with his long legs and entered the warm room in the second courtyard.
Jiang Changning stood in the corridor and told the maid, "Ask the kitchen to prepare a lighter dinner, just rice."
Then he said, "Bring in two cups of tea to relieve the greasiness." I didn't feel any discomfort when I ate the pork elbow at noon, but now I feel a little nauseous because it's so greasy.
Fang Ju just brought hot water. Jiang Changning entered the warm room and soaked the towel. "Yong Zhou, wipe your face with hot water first. It will make you feel more relaxed. After dinner, take a good bath."
Prince Jin has been very busy these days, and fatigue is obvious on his face.
But Jiang Changning had always turned a blind eye to it. But today, Prince Jin believed her without hesitation, which made her soften her heart and show some concern for her.
"Help me." Prince Jin lay on his side on the kang, supporting his head with one hand.
Prince Jin naturally reached out his other hand and hugged her waist.
Jiang Changning's hand trembled slightly, and he placed the handkerchief on Prince Jin's forehead.
The forehead of Prince Jin, in the words of a fortune teller, is "full and round".
"Yong Zhou, close your eyes and I will wipe your face." Jiang Changning said.
Prince Jin obediently closed his eyes and slowly stroked Jiang Changning's slender waist with his hands.
The man was very handsome, with thick black eyelashes, a high nose bridge, clear lip lines, and perfect jaw lines.
Jiang Changning evaluated in her heart while wiping. When she was done, she wanted to leave, but Prince Jin pressed her down on the kang.
He should have felt better after wiping his face with hot water, but Prince Jin was irritated by Jiang Changning.
Seeing this, Fangju hurriedly led the maid out.
"Yong Zhou, stop it." Jiang Changning turned her head away, refusing to accept his kiss.
"Ningning." Since Prince Jin couldn't kiss her red lips, he licked her earlobe and bit it gently, "Ningning, Ningning."
Fortunately, he acted quickly, otherwise the person he loved so much would have been taken away by that beast in the palace.
Jiang Changning felt very uncomfortable with his calls. In order to get rid of him, he said, "Yong Zhou, let go. I... I have a cramp in my leg."
"Why is your leg cramped?" Even if the King of Jin wanted to be intimate, he would not ignore her body. He let go of her and sat up. "Which leg?"
"Left leg." Jiang Changning said casually.
Prince Jin helped her take off her shoes and massaged her left leg. "Please ask the imperial physician to come and take a look."
Jiang Changning's mouth twitched, "No need."
Not to mention, her legs didn't cramp. Even if they did, it wouldn't be a disease and it wouldn't be worth calling a doctor.
"I just twisted my arm and it's cramped. No need to call a doctor." Jiang Changning pushed his arm and said, "It's okay, Yong Zhou."
Prince Jin withdrew his hand, watched Jiang Changning get off the kang, and went out of the warm room to call the maid to come in and clean up.
After a long time, Jiang Changning did not come in again, so the Prince of Jin got up and went out to look for her, "Where is the princess?"
"Your Highness." Jiang Changning came out from the corner of the corridor.
She had changed into casual clothes and had her hair recombed, into a gentle low bun with a green magnolia flower-shaped hairpin and a mutton-fat white jade ruyi hairpin inserted in it. She looked simple and refreshing.
"I can accompany you back to your room to change clothes." There was a hint of resentment in Prince Jin's tone.
"Have you had the tea to relieve your greasy feeling?" Jiang Changning stepped forward and took his hand.
She couldn't let him see that she didn't want to pay attention to him and wanted to avoid him.
"Drink it." Prince Jin didn't like to drink something bitter, but since Jiang Changning had someone prepare it, he didn't refuse.
That night, they were naturally enjoying themselves again. When the couple were supposed to sleep in each other's arms, the King of Jin suddenly dropped a bombshell, "Mrs. Zhou should have been sent to me by the King of Qing."
Jiang Changning, who was being summoned by Zhou Gong, suddenly woke up, turned over, and looked at the King of Jin, "What should I do?"
The King of Jin smiled. He knew his little princess was very smart. "She is already abandoned and useless, but she is an eyesore if she stays in the palace."
"I will find an excuse to send her to a farm outside the city." Jiang Changning said.
Less than a month after she entered the palace, she was demoted to a concubine. She was not a virtuous wife, but a jealous woman.
The Prince of Jin's eyebrows twitched slightly. His little princess was too kind-hearted, but if she wanted to deal with it this way, he would not object to her opinion. "Okay."
