Chapter 283 Heart Knot (1)
Mrs. Dong'er voice was filled with fatigue and worry. Dong Ying'er looked up. She was locked in the house these days, and she also neglected Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Dong a lot, and did not pay attention to the affairs in the mansion. Why, when she didn't know, the mansion was so embarrassed?
She looked at Mrs. Dong in a blink of an eye. When she saw this, she had not noticed it on weekdays. She had lost a lot of weight when she was originally round and smooth. Her eyebrows were full of sorrow and her expression was very haggard. Dong Ying'er paused in her heart and asked, "Mom, what happened?"
"It has nothing to do with you." Mrs. Dong smiled and touched her head: "As long as you are well, your mother will be happier than anything else."
Dong Ying'er didn't think so. Mrs. Dong's words just now had deeply penetrated into her heart. She had originally loved Jiang Xinzhi, but now whether Jiang Xinzhi was captured or killed in battle, it would be impossible to get along with her in this life. Now she has also retired from the Chang family and has no way out in the future. She has no chance of falling out anyway. She had already thought about it, but seeing Mrs. Jiang like this, she changed her mind.
The only one who can be with her forever is her relatives who are as good as ever in the world. She disobeyed her relatives for Jiang Xinzhi. Since she had no other wishes in her life, why not fulfill it?
She looked at Mrs. Dong: "Mom, I'll enter the palace."
"You..." Mrs. Dong was stunned and forced a smile: "You should rest now. If these things happen, it is important to take a good rest. Don't think about the rest."
"Mom," Dong Ying'er chuckled softly. For a moment, something seemed to disappear in her playful eyes. Instead, it was a faint coldness: "Since the mansion is so difficult, my brother and father still have to gain a foothold in the court, and accidentally made a raft for others. When I entered the palace, I could at least ask for His Majesty's protection, or at least change the rest of His Majesty's peace of mind for the Dong family." She suddenly stood up, knelt down at Mrs. Dong, and kowtowed respectfully three times: "My daughter was unfilial. Before, my daughter had made mistakes. She abandoned the Dong family for her own selfishness. She also asked her mother to give her daughter a chance to make compensation and let her enter the palace."
Her tone persisted, as if she no longer had any attachment to Jiang Xinzhi, and even the pain of the star was gone for a moment, as if she had never loved a general named Jiang Xinzhi.
Mrs. Dong looked at her, not knowing whether it was joy or sorrow, but her emotions turned into a long sigh.
Jiang Xinzhi finally turned Dong Ying'er into a completely different person, and Dong Ying'er's life was rewritten. At this moment, the playful and unrestrained girlhood ended. From then on, Dong Ying'er will enter the palace and work step by step in the cage of conspiracy and power, seeking a temporary and prosperous glory for herself and her family.
Walking out of Dong Ying'er's house, Mr. Dong came forward and asked, "Madam, how are you?"
Mrs. Dong remained silent, but slowly closed her eyes and stood in front of the Guanyin statue in the hall. While her hands were folded, a drop of tears quickly splashed out and fell into the incense ash stove.
If you can't stand it, you can only use the rest of your life to atone for your sins. You only wish for peace and joy in this life, even if that's just... a luxury.
In the garden outside the Princess Hall, Jiang Ruan raised her eyes to look at the young man in front of her.
Gu Yi was wearing a long green sky brocade dress with a large auspicious cloud pattern embroidered on his chest, but his black eyes were staring at Jiang Ruan with a hint of nervousness in his eyes.
In a trance, it seemed that I would go back to the Linglong Boat I first met a few years ago. The young man was a pride of heaven from a wealthy family. He was like a big peony in this hall, and his life was full of flowers, and he was born to be admired.
At the beginning, just a simple use, but now things change, the young man grows into a young man, but his eyes seem to be more sincere than before. He retreats a little more frivolously, and he is a little calmer, but he is still the same person.
"Young Master Gu." Jiang Ruan nodded. She could smile gentlely at the cruel people in her heart, but she could only face this persistent admiration with coldness.
"Miss Jiang." Gu Yi did not call her Princess Hong'an. In Gu Yi's heart, Jiang Ruan was like Ruan's mother in the Jiang family when she first met. He was amazed by her beauty, a graceful lady, and a gentleman. Later, Jiang Ruan followed the Queen Mother to the imperial tomb and returned to glory three years later. Gu Yi was shocked to realize that it seemed as if a dusty jade had finally been discovered, and it had been carved a little, making people unable to take their eyes off.
However, although he is the prince of the General's Mansion, he must be cautious in his words and actions. Jiang Ruan is now the Princess Hong'an, and he rarely has any contact on weekdays. Moreover, Lord Gu also explicitly prohibited him from getting too close to Jiang Ruan.
Until the news of Jiang Xinzhi's defeat came, Gu Yi could no longer bear it. In his opinion, it is conceivable what ending a defeated deputy general ended in the court. Jiang Ruan was in the palace and was unintentionally pushed to the forefront. The longer he stayed in the palace, the more dangerous it was. It is inevitable that Jiang Xinzhi was implicated.
Gu Yi said, "Miss Jiang, I hope the lady will be more at ease about my brother's affairs."
"Thank you, Mr. Gu, for your consolation." Jiang Ruan said lightly.
Seeing Jiang Ruan's attitude, Gu Yi was a little nervous for a moment, but when he thought of what he wanted to say, he was immediately full of courage: "Ms. Jiang, now Vice General Jiang's life and death are uncertain. Miss Jiang is too dangerous in the palace. The situation in the court is now in chaos, and Miss Jiang is brother and sister with Deputy General Jiang. It is inevitable that someone will be involved in it because Vice General Jiang Jiang will involve Miss Jiang. Even the Empress Dowager has something to take into account. I... I have a solution."
Jiang Ruan raised her eyebrows and raised her lips: "Oh? What can I do with Mr. Gu?"
Gu Yi's heartbeat was a little quick by her eyes, and he paused and said, "As long as Miss Jiang gets engaged with someone quickly, it will have nothing to do with the Jiang family. If someone uses Deputy General Jiang as a raft in the future, Miss Jiang is not a member of the Jiang family, and she will not be able to rely on this person before she can escape unscathed."
"Young Master Gu is right." Jiang Ruan sighed and said with a smile: "But who is willing to get engaged to me at this time? It's too late to hide."
"I!" Gu Yi blurted out, and saw Jiang Ruan's expression hesitated for a moment, and he mustered up the courage to say, "I have been in love with Miss Mu for a long time, and the General's Mansion is not something that a slut can do. If Miss Jiang is willing to get engaged with him, she will definitely take good care of the lady and prevent her from being wronged. With the General's Mansion, Miss Jiang will never be framed and caused trouble."
Jiang Ruan looked at the young man in front of him with a smile. The man's eyes were full of hope, and even his feelings were passionate. She had received the name of a witch in her previous life, but she had never encountered such a passionate expression. Unfortunately, Gu Yi met her in this life, and even such a clean and passionate confession could not touch her at all.
She lowered her eyes: "I only ask Mr. Gu one thing, what does Mr. Gu say?"
