It's just as Jiang said, no matter how many children they have, they still have to live their lives depending on their mistress's face.
Moreover, there are few examples of concubines being rehabilitated in this era. Merchants who do not pay attention to rules would not do this, let alone raise a wealthy family to a noble house.
There was a villain in Wei Hanzhang's mind scratching his head. He didn't understand why. In the original plot, the Jiang family would be abandoned and the concubine Shen Yue would be rehabilitated.
Not wanting to disturb her parents' rare tenderness, she quietly retreated out.
…………
Returning to his own courtyard, Wei Hanzhang pushed open the door of the courtyard wall and stepped into the annex of Prince Yan's Mansion.
The two maidservants stayed at their posts as usual. Seeing her coming, they were deeply blessed: "Miss Wei, hello."
Wei Hanzhang nodded casually, said no courtesy, and walked straight towards the main hall.
Halfway through, I saw Prince Xiao, dressed in a blue robe, standing under a rose tree. His figure was as tall and straight as a green bamboo. The morning light of early summer shone on his face, and the smile on his lips was clearly visible. Facing this way... seems to be waiting for her?
This thought made Wei Hanzhang pause and slow down involuntarily.
She walked slowly, but Xiao Junzhan couldn't wait any longer and walked over on his own initiative.
"Look up," Xiao Junzhan said warmly as he walked a few steps in front of the girl who had been waiting for a long time: "Let me see if the injury on my face is better."
"..." Thinking of his previous record of taking action himself if he disagreed, Wei Hanzhang pursed his lips and raised his head slightly: "It's already healed."
As if being blinded by the sunlight, Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes and inadvertently moved closer. He looked at the girl in front of him without blinking an eye. His fingers in his sleeves slowly tightened. He smiled and said, "It's good to have a look." A little more."
The man's voice was low and hoarse, unusually soft and pleasant. Wei Hanzhang suddenly raised his eyes and realized that he was too close. He hurriedly took two steps back and said cautiously: "Xiao Boqian, don't always think about it. Is it okay for Fa'er to take advantage of the girl's family?"
Her voice was loud, and the surrounding attendants, including Ning Hai, could hear it clearly. Although they all bowed slightly and couldn't see their faces, the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Perhaps this was the first time someone said that he was taking advantage. Xiao Junzhan was slightly startled, and then he couldn't help but laugh. He pinched his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Ran Ran is right to remind you. I seem to behave in front of you." He is indeed becoming less of a gentleman."
Compared to the first time when he looked at the girl he liked more and was embarrassed, Xiao Junzhan has made great progress in getting along with him these days.
Not only did he express his feelings frankly, but he also went a step further. He held the girl's shoulders, patted her slightly, and said softly: "How about you nod now, and I will choose a good and auspicious day to marry Ran Ran home and get close to her in an open and honest way?"
"Not at all." Wei Hanzhang took two steps back and pursed his lips slightly, "What we said at the beginning did not include asking me to marry you."
Another clean rejection made Xiao Junzhan's smile gradually fade, and he looked at the girl in front of him quietly.
This is the only girl he has lived and waited for 25 years to meet, who makes his heart happy just by seeing her.
But that was not the case for her. She had a young boy who grew up with her early on. They were childhood sweethearts and promised each other a lifetime.
From the day Xiao Junzhan learned that Wei Hanzhang was discussing marriage with the Gu family boy who grew up with him, he knew that the girl he admired might already have someone else in his heart.
At that moment, the murderous intention that arose in anger almost broke through the top of his head, and was finally suppressed by him.
Killing someone was easy, but he knew he couldn't.
Let the boy from the Gu family die during the most sincere period of their relationship so that she can spend the rest of her life remembering it?
He's not that stupid, and he's not that generous.
Xiao Junzhan's eyes moved downward from Wei Hanzhang's face inch by inch until her heart stopped.
His purpose was to expel the shadows of other men from her.
She couldn't have any place in her heart for anyone else, not even the slightest can only be one him.
Xiao Junzhan's emotions were ups and downs. Only Ning Hai, who was a close servant, felt the ups and downs of Xiao Junzhan's emotions in the courtyard. His shoulders shook slightly, and he bowed his shoulders even lower.
Wei Hanzhang didn't realize it at all. She was very grateful to Prince Xiao for his willingness to save the Jiang family, but she wasn't so grateful that she planned to marry her to the second-married man.
Even if she becomes a princess in the future...
its not right! Wei Hanzhang was stunned, and suddenly thought that if she really married the Crown Prince of Yan in front of her, she would become the Princess of Yan in the future.
In an era when imperial power reigns supreme, the status of a princess is extremely noble. In addition to being lower than the high-ranking ladies in the harem, it is already the pinnacle of a woman's future.
Once she becomes the eldest concubine of Prince Yan's palace, isn't it just a matter of words to keep her own mother from being abandoned?
Even if you want to get Wei Hanyue out of the family temple, it won't be difficult, right?
The worst case scenario is telling the outside world that the person is dead and quietly changing his identity to start over. Maybe he won't be able to return to his old life of servants and ladies, but it will be more comfortable than spending the rest of his life living in a temple.
If she really wants to marry into Prince Yan's palace, her right to speak in the Wei family will definitely be different from what it used to be... She will become the biggest supporter of Jiang's mother and daughter in the original work, and her grandfather Wei Ping will probably be willing to give her this face.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang was really moved... but quickly suppressed it.
No, no.
Wei Hanzhang shook his head violently in his heart. The Jiang family's status was still stable, but she was not so selfless when she married a second-married man just to get her sister to become a monk.
Her life is also very important. Unless she has to, she should not violate her own views on marriage and love and marry such a man with many wives and concubines.
Xiao Junzhanrao had no idea what to do, and he had no idea what was going on in the girl in front of him.
Even when he was overwhelmed by the fierce love, he didn't realize how miserable he was being disliked now that he was the crown prince of Prince Yan.
His vision was above the court. He really didn't know which family had a difficult childbirth for a woman in the backyard, or how many wives and concubines there were. He only knew that Xiao Wen'an didn't have a wife, so that was it.
Although he was rejected cleanly again, Xiao Junzhan still fulfilled his promise and took Wei Hanzhang to the Dali Temple Prison to visit the Jiang family.
When the carriage stopped, he handed over a curtain hat and said with a gentle expression: "There are many people here with mixed eyes, Ran Ran, do you want to cover up?"
This is a question, he is respecting her choice.
In other words, he was reminding her.
Wei Hanzhang's heart felt hot and he was a little moved.
It was clear that if an acquaintance found out that she was walking alone with him, because of his status as the crown prince of Prince Yan, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion would be happy to marry her, but he still reminded her.
