She wanted to choose a good family for her daughter, and the people she chose were all well-matched sons from well-connected families. She would not suffer any loss no matter which family she married into.

The maid presented the portraits to Jiang Xiyuan, but she only glanced through them, and no one liked them.

"You, you, may not be too picky, but you can't keep your temper. What should we do in the future?" The eldest lady said in a helpless tone.

Jiang Xiyuan felt aggrieved: "But those silks, satins and jewelry, which Mother asked you to give to me, are now given to that girl Jiang Wenyue."

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

The eldest lady sat down next to her and patted her hand: "What's so annoying about this? I'm doing this just to kill your temper. Don't be too impatient. You are a legitimate daughter, so you don't need to be with a concubine.

Calculate."

Having said that, how could Jiang Xiyuan not be angry when she saw Jiang Wenyue wearing jewelry that originally belonged to her?

Having said that, it was also because of the second prince that she looked down on those young men from aristocratic families.

She couldn't wait to see him, and as soon as she got back to her house, she sent someone to find out the news.

When she finally met the second prince as she wished, she found that his attitude had changed and he seemed more indifferent than before.

"I sent so many letters to His Highness, but Your Highness didn't reply to any of them."

She acted like a little daughter in front of the second prince, her voice was a little choked, and she sounded very aggrieved.

The second prince was stunned for a moment and pulled away slightly.

In his opinion, Jiang Xiyuan is just a chess piece in his hand. Now that this chess piece has lost its use value, it has no meaning to him and is equivalent to waste.

"I have a lot of things to do and I'm so busy that I don't have time to reply to you."

Jiang Xiyuan was still a little resentful at first, but when she heard what he said, the resentment in her heart immediately disappeared.

She made a cup of tea herself: "You have a sip of hot tea first, and we will talk in detail slowly."

"No, I just came over to see you."

The second prince was a little perfunctory. He didn't want to see her, but he was afraid that she would notice something and cause complications.

When Jiang Wenyue heard this, her eyes couldn't help but turn red: "It turns out that Your Highness is thinking of me. Your Highness hasn't replied to your letters in the past few days. I just don't think about food and tea. My mother said that I have lost weight."

She really misses him and wants to see him every day, but she is a daughter-in-law and cannot go out easily. It is not easy to see him.

The second prince didn't take it seriously at all. These so-called thoughts were a burden to him.

She is just a chess piece. If he develops feelings for her, it will ruin his big deal.

He took two sips of hot tea and said quietly: "It's not that I won't come, I also have my own reasons."

He said he had hard feelings, but in his heart he was thinking about how to get rid of her.

Of course, he would never admit that he had a change of heart. If he did, he would be in a lot of trouble.

"What is the difficulty? Your Highness, tell me. I am willing to share it with Your Highness."

Jiang Wenyue grabbed his arm excitedly, wondering what was stopping him from coming to see her.

Seeing her look like this, the second prince knew that she might not be so easy to get rid of.

He closed his eyes, showed a bit of fatigue, and whispered: "I also want to marry you and be with you, so that we can see each other every day, but my mother-in-law doesn't agree."

What, the princess doesn’t agree?

Jiang Xiyuan's heart felt cold, but she still had a glimmer of hope: "Then your Highness, please persuade your empress, or go to the Emperor. I believe the Emperor will agree to our marriage."

If she could marry the second prince, what would those princes mean? No matter how talented Jiang Wenyue was in the future, she would never be able to compare with her.

She had planned all this well and didn't want anything to change.

However, the next moment the second prince poured cold water on him: "Father, he didn't agree either, so I still sneaked over to see you and wanted to explain the matter to you clearly."

"This is impossible, Your Highness, are you lying to me..."

Jiang Xiyuan's voice was trembling, and her eyes were full of disbelief.

If even the emperor interfered, then their marriage would have no chance of success, and she would never want to be with the second prince.

When she thought of this, her face turned pale and her eyes turned horribly red.

"How many times have I lied to you? If I wanted to lie to you, I would not come here today."

The second prince sighed, and deliberately said in a helpless tone: "I am also helpless. I said a lot of good things about you in front of my father and mother, but they still didn't agree. In this case, I can't delay you anymore. From now on

From now on, let’s make a clean break.”

"..."

Jiang Xiyuan opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word. She felt like something had hit her hard on the back of her head, and her brain was dizzy.

How is this possible? She was still looking forward to getting married to him, but in the blink of an eye she became a phantom.
