Chapter 931: A Bit Difficult
ù scratched his head, "Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean""You don't need to understand, just do what I say."During their conversation, An Xue Tang turned to Mo Yun Jing. "A-Jing, I'm goi...Xiao Qin never expected An Xue Tang would see through her greed.
To be honest, she did come to meet Jiang Qingyang today with a little bit of hope in her heart.
She really hoped there was still room to maneuver, and she also eagerly anticipated that Jiang Qingyang had truly come up with a feasible solution that would allow her not to marry into the Ye family and not be wed to that foolish and speechless Ye Er.
Upon seeing Jiang Qingyang, she realized how naive and foolish her thoughts had been.
But think about it, this kind of thing can't be solved so easily, right If it could really be solved, it wouldn't have dragged on for so many years.
Thinking of this, Xiaoqin's tears flowed uncontrollably again.
An Xuetang didn't interrupt her, letting her calm down for a bit before speaking, "Xiaoqin, do you know who Jiang Qingyang belongs to"
"... " Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
Xiao Qin was stunned for a moment, but soon she reacted to what the Princess of Beijang meant. She pursed her lips but did not answer An Xue Tang's question.
An Xue Tang saw this and knew that Xiao Qin was aware of everything. She knew that Jiang Qing Yang was doing things for Mo Yun Chen.
By now, An Xuetang was too lazy to play riddles with her. She went straight to the point, "Mo Yunchen has gone to Beijiang. He's been making waves lately. This princess believes that Princess Xiaoshu should already know Mo Yunchen's ambition. Though Jiang Qingyang remains in the capital, what he will do next, Princess Xiaoshu, being so intelligent, should be able to guess."
Xiaoqin couldn't fathom the meaning behind An Xuetang's words. She lowered her head slightly, pursed her lips, and hesitated to speak.
An Xuetang saw her so cautious, she couldn't help but smile. Ning'er had already poured An Xuetang a cup of water at this time. At this moment, An Xuetang casually swirled the cup in her hand, not in a hurry at all, just calmly waiting.
There was a moment of silence in the room before Xiao Qin spoke, "Is there something the Princess wants to tell me"
An Xuetang smiled, her eyes, which seemed to see through everything, were fixed on Xiaoqin. She asked casually, "Xiaoqin, do you think everything Mo Yunchen has planned will succeed"
Xiao Qin's heart skipped a beat. She cautiously stared at An Xue Tang, wondering what the Northern Border Princess wanted to say
Such an outrageous topic, An Xuetang hadn't expected Xiaoqin to answer. Her sharp eyes fixed on Xiaoqin, she calmly asked and answered herself:
"I needn't state the obvious, I know very well why you and Jiang Qingyang are hoping for Mo Yunchen's success. Jiang Qingyang belongs to Mo Yunchen. Once Mo Yunchen's plan succeeds, he can ask the new emperor to arrange a marriage between you two. Then there will be no more obstacle from the Ye family."
An Xuetang used affirmative sentences throughout, and Xiao Qin had nothing to refute even if she wanted to.
Xiao Qin fell silent for a moment, and finally said only one sentence, "A woman like me doesn't want to interfere with others' affairs, nor can she. But this woman just wants to ask for a lifetime of peace and stability with the person she loves."
An Xuetang smiled, her lips curling up. In this turbulent world, peace was the hardest thing to find, yet Xiaoqin sought nothing else but that very elusive thing.
Seeing that An Xuetang remained silent, Xiao Qin quickly came to her senses and let out a wry smile:
"Your Grace's kindness today, Xiao Qin will remember it in her heart. In the future, if Your Grace needs anything from Xiao Qin, Xiao Qin will definitely do her best. Moreover, Your Grace need not worry, this servant cares more than anyone else about the lives of all the people in Anle Hou Mansion, so she will not act rashly."
As she spoke, Xiaoqin's mind drifted back to Jiang Qingyang's face, and a pang of bittersweetness filled her heart.
As for Jiang Qingyang, that man, she'd just consider them as fated not to be together.
His flirtation, her toasting, both were masters of performance, but she was a notch below, falling for his act.
An Xuetang observed her expression and knew she was telling the truth. She couldn't help but sigh softly:
"Go back first. I will find a way to cancel the marriage between Ye family and your family, as a return for the favors Anle Houfu has shown Beijiang King over the years."
"!"
Xiaoqin was shocked, she... Could this be wrong Wasn't the Princess of Beijang saying that she would help her and the Ye family cancel their marriage
Seeing Xiaoqin staring blankly at An Xue Tang, Ning'er cleared her throat.
Xiao Qin immediately came to her senses. She suddenly stood up, wanting to kneel before An Xue Tang. Fortunately, An Xue Tang had anticipated her actions long ago and had Ning'er keep an eye on her. Naturally, Ning'er did not give her the chance to kneel down.
"My Queen, I... I..."
An Xuetang waved her hand. "There's no need to say more. For the safety of dozens of people in Anle Houfu, you don't need to do anything these days, and you don't need to deal with Jiang Qingyang either. As for how you get along with him, wait until your marriage to the Ye family is canceled before we talk."
Xiaoqin was overwhelmed with gratitude. She didn't know how to thank An Xuetang enough.
An Xue Tang wasn't doing these things to make her grateful; this was the time for Ning'er to send Xiao Qin out.
After returning, Ning'er frowned slightly. "Your Highness, this matter is likely difficult to resolve. The Ye family is a renowned medical clan, and their member is the current emperor's most prized Imperial Physician. As long as the Ye family refuses to agree to the cancellation of the marriage, the emperor probably won't easily issue an edict to annul the engagement between the Ye family and the Anle Marquis' Mansion."
In Nier's opinion, their princess didn't need to take on this matter at all. After all, Jiang Qingyang was still Mo Yunchen's person, and helping Jiang Qingyang meant no benefit to the Beijang Royal Family.
An Xuetang knew what Ninger was thinking. She shook her head slightly, "I met the mistress of Anlehou Mansion before. Although she is strict with Xiaoqin, she truly loves her. I'm sure she would worry day and night if her daughter married a mute person."
"In that case, I'll step in and sabotage the two marriages. A-Jing has always felt indebted to Anle Houfu, so I'll take this opportunity to repay his favor."
Ninger pursed her lips. It wasn't that she disapproved of repaying the favor, but it was highly unlikely for the emperor to favor the Anle Houfu and cancel the marriage between the two families.
Seeing Ning'er's rarely furrowed brows, An Xuetang raised an eyebrow, "Ning'er, do you know something"
"Your Highness, according to Ning'er's investigation, Dean Ye was involved in the Emperor's usurpation of power back then. The late Emperor's illness back then might have something to do with Dean Ye. And for so many years, the Emperor hasn't removed Dean Ye's family from power. There must be some unknown reason behind this."
"..." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
An Xuetang wasn't usually concerned with royal affairs, but Ning'er's reminder made it clear to her.
Given the current emperor's temperament, that he hasn't completely eradicated the Ye Dean family over these years, is probably because the Ye Dean holds a trump card over him.
If the Ye family truly held the emperor's handle, it would be quite difficult for her to make him take back his decree and cancel the marriage between the Ye family and the Anle Houfu.moment, watching the twitching beneath Bai Feng's skin. His expression changed.He immediately rushed over, just then, Bai Feng suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were blood red, seeing someone approac...
