Chapter 12

  Flowers drift away, water flows, and Jiang Wan's mood was low, only wanting to borrow some warmth from the people around her, but forgetting that after the incident, there would be many unnecessary branches. After listening to Wang Fei's implicit explanation, she still looked at her with a calm expression, her calm demeanor making Wang Fei's eyes even more gloomy.

  Everyone in the room was holding their breath, waiting for Jiang Wan to speak. Jiang Wan stared at the maids wiping the floor clean before smiling slightly and nodding her head, saying: "The work of the maids in the Wang estate is done cleanly and meticulously, this floor is as clean as it was before." As soon as she spoke, everyone in the room fell silent, staring at her, with the princess's eyes widening even further.

  Jiang Wanmu raised her eyes to look at Jiyuan, who was about to walk forward, and said: "You can go down now, I won't have anything to do with you. You've always thought that the princess is a dignified, noble, and kind person, and it seems that today she will not disappoint you." After hearing Jiang Wanmu's words, Jiyuan rushed towards the princess and bowed silently before walking out of the room and gently closing the door. The princess looked at Jiyuan's retreating figure with a face full of kindness and said softly to Jiang Wanmu: "It's rare to have someone as loyal by your side, you should cherish her more."

  The princess heard her words, which seemed to be hinting at something, and clearly pointed to what she had just said. The princess could no longer maintain that loving posture, her face was filled with a look of unbearable anger as she stared at Jiang Wanru without letting go, her face full of anger and her voice low: "Miss Jiang, don't think that you can get back into my husband's bed again, he will soften his heart for you, and let you become someone who cannot be driven out of the palace. Do you think that sleeping with him once can change the decision of the palace to let you leave?

  Jiang Wanmu gazed at the queen's disdainful expression, hearing her crudely spoken words. After a slight pause, she thought of her own words. In the queen's disbelieving gaze, she lightly laughed and softly said: "Your Majesty, if my birth mother was truly skilled in entangling men, she wouldn't have ended up dying young. As for what happened last night, I naturally won't deny it. I also don't think that matters between husband and wife are anything to be ashamed of; they're just private affairs that can't be openly discussed in front of everyone."

  The princess did not expect Jiang Wanru's temper to be so uncompromising. Normally, she would not make a sound, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she spoke non-stop and every sentence was piercing. The princess's face turned red and white again, and in extreme anger, she stretched out her hand and slapped the table hard, causing concerned voices to come from outside: "Master, do you want us to send tea water in?" The princess took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "No need, all of you stand back a bit further, I have important things to discuss with the third madam." Jiang Wanru looked at the princess's flustered and impatient appearance, and her heart felt slightly relieved.

  Even before the princess married, no one in her family taught her these things. She has been sitting in the position of princess for many years and must not be unfamiliar with the childless flower. It is said that there have always been concubines and maids by the king's side, they do not appear in public, and they never have children related to them. Jiang Wanru had seen the king look at the princess with eyes that were too calm and respectful. They looked like a couple who respected each other as guests, and their relationship did not seem as romantic and deep as what was said outside.

  The princess laughed with relish, her gaze at Jiang Wanru had a hint of unquenchable hatred. Jiang Wanru had seen this kind of gaze in Madam Jiang's eyes many times before, and she looked thoughtful as she sized up the princess. The princess didn't like her, and she could understand that it was a mother's careful protection for her son. However, the hatred revealed by the princess seemed to be venting on her to calm down the deep-seated sense of injustice in her heart, which made Jiang Wanru somewhat puzzled. Before entering the palace, she had no chance to know the people in the palace, and it was impossible to form such a deep grudge.

  Jiang Wanting felt that after the truth came out, the queen who was no longer pretending to be calm seemed more like a real person. When facing her, she didn't feel that empty feeling anymore. The queen had been waiting for Jiang Wanting's angry reaction, but instead, she just stared at her thoughtfully. After a long time, there was a hint of understanding in her eyes and she smiled lightly, saying: "Queen, so you actually hate me. It seems that it's another trouble caused by Yu Niang during her youth. Did the king have feelings for her back then? It seems that the queen is mistaken, the king being such an overbearing man, he doesn't seem like someone who would be sincere with women."

  Jiang Wanting knew that today's confrontation with the princess would be a breaking point, and although it wouldn't be a life-or-death situation, they could never coexist peacefully again. Ripping off the facade had its advantages - at least she didn't have to pretend to get along with her opponent anymore. The princess was still lost in thought, but Jiang Wanting didn't want to waste any more time on her. She smiled lightly and said, "Princess, when it comes to relationships between men and women, there's always the saying that only women suffer, never men who regret their actions."

  "We each take a step back, and I absolutely will not drink the abortion medicine. I still want to have my own child in the future, children are much more reliable than men. And what you said to me today, and those hints, I pretend I didn't hear or see them. The Third Master and I are people with no fate, we're just passing through a period of time together, and being together is just to pass the lonely days." After saying this, Jiang Wanru stood up and glanced at the dazed Wang Fei sitting there, then walked into the side room door.
