PREGNANT BEFORE THE ROYAL MARRIAGE

Chapter 883: Chapter 883 Some Broken Stones_1

“Shut up, shut up!” Jiang Ruobai, having his insecurities poked, couldn’t help but get furious, “Do you feel uncomfortable if you don’t dig into people’s scars? Would she have been lured away by a pig’s trotter seller if it hadn’t been for you always buying her street food?”

“You blame me because you couldn’t take good care of the child?”

“Yes, I blame you, it’s all your fault!”

Those two big shots, who could sway the winds of the Imperial Court, were both red-faced and neck-thick at this moment, as if they would love to strangle each other and have a fight.

It wasn’t until Madam Ge appeared that this fierce argument was stopped.

Under her gentle persuasion, both big shots sat down in the study, talked calmly about the affairs of the Imperial Court, and discussed the war between Silla and Rouran.

In the end, Jiang Ruobai asked about Gucheng, and Jiang Mubai wondered, “What, even you have started to worry about Gucheng?”

“I don’t care about your people. It’s the Seventh Miss who is concerned for Gucheng, worried that he will not adapt if he stays in the palace for too long.”

“That isn’t necessary.” Jiang Mubai thought for a while, then ordered someone to call Gucheng over, “Gucheng, the army is going to set off in five days. You go to the palace in these few days to see the Princess Consort and teach her some self-defense. This way, you can leave with ease, and I can be assured.”

Gucheng silently nodded his head, then turned around and left.

After all said and done, the General and his Shadow Guard leader didn’t have much faith in the ability of the tearful Gufeng.

Especially holding the military book personally written by his little niece in his hands, Jiang Mubai felt incredibly guilty. His kind niece had entrusted her protection to the least capable person among his Shadow Guards.

Madam Ge said with a gleeful smile, “Five years ago, when our Shan’er got married and left home, I asked the General for a Shadow Guard to protect Shan’er, but the General wasn’t even willing to give Gufeng.”

The General snorted coldly, “She married a poor scholar, why would she need protection? How can the dangers of the Harem compare to the Seventh Miss’s situation? I think you’re just confused!”

Ms. Ge spat, “Stop your nonsense, don’t I know you? You’re just feeling guilty because you think it’s your fault that the Seventh Miss got lost. If the Seventh Miss were to ask, I’m afraid you’d give her the entire Shadow Guard.”

“Once I retire, I’ll give my entire property to the Seventh Miss. What can you do about it?”

“Fine, fine, I don’t care about your broken properties! My things are more valuable, and the Seventh Miss will definitely like them more.”

Madam Ge rolled her eyes and walked away with a twist of her body.

Jiang Mubai said behind her, “What kind of property do you have? Aren’t they just some broken stones?”

Jiang Ruobai, who had been listening to the quarrel between his brother and sister-in-law for a long time, didn’t dare to interrupt. Not until his sister-in-law had left would he timidly ask, “Aren’t those broken stones of my sister-in-law’s gold and silver jewels?”

“Aren’t they stones?”

“But they are valuable stones.”

Madam Ge came from a family of wealthy merchants who loved her dearly. They gave her a big dowry when she got married, and over the years, because they felt the General was poor, they continued to subsidise the Jiang Family.

The properties left by Madam Ge were enough to make many people green with envy.

In the eyes of the General, however, they were nothing more than a pile of rubbish stones.

No wonder Madam Ge rolled her eyes at him.

…

Jiang Ning was rebuffed in the East Palace.

The Crown Prince and the young Princess, the father-daughter duo, both ignored her.

Even if she personally went to the kitchen to prepare their favourite dishes and eagerly presented them, they remained indifferent. The little one sat in the lap of the Crown Prince, holding a vermilion pen, and randomly doodling on a pile of papers.

Jiang Ning watched with a heart full of anxiety, and whenever she tried to intervene, she was blocked by the cold eyes of the Crown Prince.
