"Now that the prince has spoken, Jiang Fu will speak out..."
"...His Royal Highness, actually, this old man Jiang Jie is not as simple as you think. At the beginning, he deliberately drove his adopted son Ye Changtian out of the Jiang family in order to protect Ye Changtian."
"Oh?" Yan Wulu pretended to be curious, "...How did you, the great butler, know that?"
"At that time, Jiang Jie was the one who asked me to frame Ye Changtian." Jiang Fu said. He seemed to be a little drunk and did not think carefully about what he said.
"...Furthermore, let me tell you, Crown Prince, this old man Jiang Jie escaped from the Northland overnight on the Crown Prince's wedding day. This was not an ordinary move at all. He was... worried that Jiang Yueling would assassinate you!"
Jiang Fu said that it was reasonable and well-founded.
Yan Wulu pretended to be drunk and did not comment.
"His Royal Highness, the Jiang family is unreliable!" Jiang Fu concluded after some heart-wrenching words.
"The Jiang family is unreliable? So, who should I rely on, the housekeeper?" Yan Wulu asked the other party with half-squinted eyes and a smile.
Jiang Fu paused and made sure that Yan Wulu was still conscious before continuing -
"If the prince does not give up, Jiang Fu is willing to fully support the prince!"
"...Jiang Fu has heard that in the Zhenbei Army, in addition to the prince's faction, there is also the 'general faction' that supports the unified army general Cheng Huanian."
"...The reason why the prince married Jiang Yueling was just for the sake of the Jiang family's century-old sword-making family business. That Jiang Jie and Jiang Yueling are both unreliable."
"...If the Crown Prince is willing to cooperate with Jiang Fu, then Jiang Jie will die suddenly and Jiang Yueling will become the Crown Prince's concubine. Will the Jiang family fall into the hands of the Crown Prince and me soon?"
"...At that time, Jiang Fu will definitely lead the Jiang family to fully support the crown prince and ensure that the crown prince takes over the Zhenbei army smoothly!"
Jiang Fu said it vividly and with good reason.
Yan Wulu still looked at it with half-squinted eyes.
It seems that Jiang Fu didn't know about Jiang Yueling's "Taiyin constitution" and only thought that he was interested in the Jiang family's apparent sword-making business.
It's true that a frog in a well doesn't know how deep the sky is.
Does the dignified Prince of Zhenbei still need those three melons and two dates from the Jiang family?
Even the Jinling aristocratic families in the Imperial Capital of Daqian were nothing more than gold powder and fat in Yan Wulu's eyes.
Although luxurious and beautiful, it is not necessary.
But after Jiang Fu tried his best to show his loyalty, Yan Wulu suddenly interrupted and asked——
"I already know the great steward's intentions. I just don't know. Has the great steward heard of Sword Tomb?"
"Jianzhong?" Jiang Fu was a little confused.
And Yan Wulu has already got his answer - the person in front of him is of no use value.
…
On the first day today, Jiang Jie actually discovered something was wrong with the Crown Prince's guard, Tiemian.
After dealing with the etiquette matters, Yan Wulu went back.
And Jiang Jie also took advantage of the interval between the Crown Prince's guard rounds in the evening to secretly follow Tiemian.
In private, Jiang Jie discovered that the other party was actually his adopted son Ye Changtian.
"Changtian, what's going on with your voice?"
Jiang Jie was surprised because the voice of the person in front of him was hoarse and mocking, which was completely different from the clear male voice in his impression.
"Don't worry, foster father, it's just a disguise." Ye Changtian cleared his throat slightly and was able to speak as clearly as before.
When Jiang Jie heard this, he nodded slightly and felt relieved.
Immediately afterwards, what surprised Jiang Jie even more was that Ye Changtian told Jiang Jie that it was the Crown Prince Yan Wulu who had been protecting him and asked him to change his appearance and become the Crown Prince's bodyguard.
Jiang Jie was stunned and speechless for a moment.
He was originally worried that Ye Changtian was acting on his own initiative, concealing his identity and lurking around the Prince of Zhenbei, waiting for an opportunity to take Jiang Yueling back.
The reason why Jiang Jie drove the other party out of the Jiang family in the first place was to prevent the other party from doing such stupid things, and also to protect the other party's safety.
However, Ye Changtian never held any grudge against the two elders of the Jiang family for being kicked out of the Jiang family.
What's more, after being reminded by Yan Wulu, he fully understood Jiang Jie's good intentions.
After some exchanges, Jiang Jie also understood Ye Changtian's experience during this period.
Although I can't bear the hardships Ye Changtian endured during this period, I also have a favorable impression of Yan Wulu, who saved people in danger and had a gentlemanly demeanor...
"His Royal Highness, is he really as good to Yue Ling... as he is now?"
Jiang Jie didn't know why, but because of his inherent impression of the deep and deep Yan Dong in the city, he was worried that this was also Yan Wulu's trick.
Ye Changtian was stunned for a while, he was struggling, but in the end, he decided to tell the truth——
"As far as Changtian has seen, the crown prince's affection for Yue Ling is not inferior to Changtian at all. He has given Yue Ling the greatest love he can give now."
"...Yue Ling is in the Zhenbei Palace. Although she is only known as the crown prince's concubine, she enjoys the treatment of the crown prince's main concubine."
Seeing the adopted son he valued most in the past speaking like this, Jiang Jie couldn't help but stroke his long beard with relief.
Jiang Jie knew Ye Changtian's feelings for his daughter.
To be honest, if it weren't for the pressure from Zhenbei Wang Yandong, Jiang Jie would actually like to see Ye Changtian and his daughter together.
However, in the eyes of Jiang Jie, who loves her daughter, the most important thing is Jiang Yueling's own choice.
Even Ye Changtian, who was deeply in love with Jiang Yueling, admitted that Yan Wulu was really good to Jiang Yueling.
Then, as an old father, Jiang Jie finally let go of his worries...
…
Another place.
After Jiang Yueling had a conversation with Jiang's mother, she actually did not live with Jiang's mother.
In her heart, she thought of Yan Wulu's appearance inexplicably. There seemed to be a voice telling her to go back, and she wanted to see him.
After saying goodbye to her mother, Jiang Yueling hurried back to her residence.
But Yan Wulu's whereabouts was not found...
While she was in a trance, Jiang Yueling seemed to hear something, as if someone was deliberately trying to attract her there.
Perhaps because she was in the Jiang family, in this extremely familiar environment, Jiang Yueling was much more courageous than usual.
She followed the voice.
After turning around a few corridors and walking a short distance, I saw... my husband, Yan Wulu, drinking and talking with the butler, Jiang Fu.
Curiosity drove Jiang Yueling forward.
The two of them have obviously been drinking here for a long time...
When Jiang Yueling came to the stone pillars in the corridor, she heard a conversation that she could never believe -
"His Royal Highness, as long as I have your support, this villain will dare to poison Jiang Jie's family to death at the Jiang family's banquet tomorrow night! Of course, Jiang Yueling's beautiful girl will still be left to your disposal, the Crown Prince."
"...When the time comes, Jiang Jie will have no heirs, and almost all of the Jiang family are villains. This century-old foundation of the Jiang family will naturally fall into the hands of the crown prince, you and me."
"...By then, if I help the prince take care of the Jiang family, the prince will definitely be able to overwhelm Cheng Huanian in the Zhenbei Army!"
Jiang Yueling took a breath of cold air.
The steps she originally wanted to take forward also stopped.
She never thought that Jiang Fu, whose family was so kind to him, would have such a wolfish heart!
At the same time, Jiang Yueling was also a little curious and scared...
She wanted to know what kind of answer Yan Wulu would give.
"Steward Jiang's plan... is very good!"
Yan Wulu's voice came, and he and Jiang Fu toasted again.
Jiang Yueling was numb for a moment, and she didn't know how to deal with it...
but……
She inexplicably believed in Yan Wulu.
This is not just because she likes the other person, but because of reason.
Jiang Fu did not understand Yan Wulu and the power of Zhenbei King behind him.
But Jiang Yueling knew...
If Yan Wulu really just wanted the Jiang family's fortune, there would be no need to rely on Jiang Fu. He alone would be enough.
Furthermore, after getting along with Yan Wulu, Jiang Yueling knew that he was a gentleman! He was also a good husband.
