Chapter 1218 - 1218: Brainwashing Yuwen Ling
In Consort Liu De’s bed-chamber, Granny Liu frowned and said to Consort Liu De,” Your Highness, the wife of the Zhengguo Duke has gone to the Rain
Spirit Palace to look for the princess!”
Consort Liu frowned and asked in confusion,” Why did she suddenly find Ling’er”
Granny Liu thought for a moment and guessed,” Your Highness, could it be that the wife of the Zhengguo Duke heard about the news and specially came to test the Princess? Empress, should we get someone to call the wife of the Duke over and ask?”
Consort Liu De thought for a moment and said,” No need! Wen Yujing and Jiang Zhennan’s relationship is like fire and water. I believe that Wen Yujing must have come to dissuade Ling ‘er!’
After all, if a noble princess married Jiang Zhennan, it would be equivalent to giving Jiang Zhennan wings. Wen Yujing would not be so stupid.
Therefore, she would only think of ways to make Ling ‘er give up the idea of marrying Jiang Zhennan.
However, at this moment, Consort Liu De had never thought that Yuwen Ling would commit a heinous crime because of her carelessness.
Granny Liu thought about it and agreed that it should be so, so she did not persuade Consort Liu to call Wen Yujing over for questioning.
The Rain Spirit Palace
“What did you say?” Yuwen Ling said in surprise,” The general doesn’t understand your good intentions and even used that kind of method to take revenge on you. Is it all because of that woman?”
Wen Yujing wiped her tears again and nodded gently.” Yes, Princess! However, at that time, we didn’t even know when he had a woman he loved.
“Otherwise, no matter what, we wouldn’t have suggested to His Majesty that the eldest daughter of the Zeng family marry Nan ‘er! Nan ‘er blames us for making our own decisions, Zeng Yanli blames us for not keeping our word, and now my Ye ‘Er also hates me for marrying such a wife for him. Princess, what do you think I should do?”
When Yuwen Ling heard this, she patted Wen Yujings shoulder even more sympathetically and said, “Zhengguo Duke’s wife, it has been really hard on you!”
Wen Yujing shook her head and said,” It’s fine. I’m already used to it! However,” she said with a tone of blame and resentment,” if you want to blame someone, blame that woman who appeared out of nowhere! If it weren’t for her, perhaps Nan ‘er wouldn’t have rejected Miss Zeng, and Niiss Zeng wouldn’t have hated us. Our relationship with Nan’ er wouldn’t have been so bad.’
Wen Yujing quietly shifted the topic to Jiang Zhennan’s so-called fiancée.
“Moreover, Princess, you might not know this, but when we were helpless against His Majesty’s decree and allowed Ye ‘er to marry the eldest daughter of the Zeng family, Nan ‘Er actually appeared in the Duke’s estate with that woman and caused a ruckus at the wedding. He even slapped me and beat my children! l, Wen Yujing, really don’t know what kind of sin I’ve committed to actually get into such a situation for no reason.”
When Yuwen Ling heard this, she immediately became angry.” Hmph, I think that woman is a jinx. She hasn’t even appeared yet, yet she’s already sowing discord between the Great General and his family. One of you is her future mother-in-law, and the other is her sister-in-law. How could she do that? How despicable! ”
Wen Yujing looked at Yuwen’s indignant expression. She lowered her head slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. Then, she raised her head and continued,” Yes, Princess, that woman is a jinx. She caused our relationship with Nan ‘er to worsen. How can the Duke’s Estate allow such a woman who destroys the harmony of the family to marry into the family? As the saying goes, marrying a wicked woman will bring disaster to three generations!”
Yu Wenling nodded.” You’re right!” However, she immediately reacted and asked in confusion, “Zhengguo Duke’s wife, who is that woman? And what right did she have to be the General’s fiancée?”
The last sentence exposed Yuwen Lings anxiety.
But unexpectedly, Wen Yujing shook her head and said, “Princess, we don’t know the identity of that woman. We only knew that she first appeared at the Nanyuan Manor and then at Ye ‘Er r s wedding. However,”
“However, what?” Yu Wenling was curious about the woman who had always been Jiang Zhennan!s fiancée.
“Back at the Nanyuan Manor, that woman claimed to be the younger sister of the richest man in the country, Liu Yichen!’! Wen Yujing said thoughtfully. Liu Yichen was the one who said that to protect Lin Yuelan.
“Liu Yichen’s sister?” Yuwen Ling asked in shock,” Does Liu Yichen have a younger sister?”
Of course, Yuwen Ling knew Liu Yichen.
Every year, Liu Yichen would attend the royal banquet as a Great Royal Merchant.
Although Liu Yichen was extremely handsome and elegant, Yuwen Ling was a noble princess of the royal family and the Emperor’s favorite princess. Her status in the palace was self-evident.
Therefore, Yuwen Ling had very high standards when it came to choosing people. She looked down on the merchant Liu Yichen, who reeked of money. Even though he was conferred the title of ” Great Royal Merchant ” by the Emperor, it could not change Liu Yichen’s lowly merchant status.
However, he was rich. Thirty percent of the silver in the national treasury was contributed by the Willow Leaf Manor. Therefore, even the Emperor had to be polite to the head of the Willow Leaf Manor, Liu Yichen.
Therefore, although Yuwen Ling didn’t like Liu Yichen, she wouldn’t show it.
However, when she heard that Jiang Zhennan’s fiancée was actually Liu
Yichen’s sister, she was still shocked, but then she felt a little disdainful.
She said angrily,” Hmph, even if she’s Liu Yichen’s sister, she’s just a daughter of a merchant family. Her status is low. How can she treat you like this?”
Wen Yujing said helplessly,” Princess, there’s something you don’t know. That woman is really willful, arrogant, and despotic. She scolds and hits us at will, but Nan ‘er has always protected her!”
This was telling Yuwen Ling that apart from Liu Yichen, Jiang Zhennan was the only one supporting that woman. That was why they were helpless!
Yuwen Ling immediately said angrily,” Hmph, that woman is really too despicable! ”
Wen Yujing didn’t agree with Yuwen Lings words. Instead, she said to her sincerely, “Sigh, Princess, I’ve always liked you. I’ve always hoped that you could be my daughter-in-law. It’s just that my Ye ‘Er doesn’t have the fortune to marry you. Moreover, Ye’ Er isn’t worthy of you. Originally, Nan ‘er…
However, he chose a fiancée himself. Sigh… It seems that it is not fated!”
Yuwen Ling rolled her eyes and said very seriously,” Niarried people can still divorce! The Great General and that woman are only engaged in the name. It is only a simple matter to break off the engagement!”
Wen Yujing, who had achieved her goal, pretended to be very surprised and shouted,” Princess, you…”
