After rebirth, I rejected the Regent, but he pursued me instead

"By the way, big brother, is it possible that the third prince is not the emperor's biological son?"

After Jiang Wanyu and Jiang Xun entered the carriage together, Jiang Wanyu asked.

Hearing this, Jiang Xun frowned and immediately asked, "Wanwan, how did you hear about this?"

"Listen to what the Fifth Princess said."

"That's no wonder."

Jiang Xun pondered for a moment and said, "This is a rumor. It is said that Concubine Xian and a general secretly stayed together for life and gave birth to the third prince. But whether this is true or not, I have no way of knowing."

"What? Then the emperor won't clarify it?"

Jiang Wanyu was puzzled.

This shouldn't be the case. Whoever is cuckolded wouldn't want to take it off and let others say what they want, unless... it's true!

"I don't know about this, but Wanwan, don't delve into it. This is not something we should be involved in. Especially in this palace, we must follow the etiquette and rules. Only in this way can the Jiang family continue to exist."

"Ah."

Jiang Wanyu nodded.

Big brother is right. No matter how gossipy you are, you can't gossip about the royal family. You have to be sensible when eating melons.

But Jiang Wanyu thought of another thing, so she put it aside for the time being, "By the way, brother, Song Qiyan said that he saved me when I fell into the water that day. Is that true?"

"This……"

Jiang Xun clenched his palms, pondered for a moment, and decided to speak, even though what happened that day was indeed caused by Song Qi Yan.

But we should repay the favor, not step on it.

"It is true, but don't worry, Brother En will report it for you, so you don't have to have any disputes with him anymore."

"Ah."

Jiang Wanyu just nodded in response, but she knew in her heart that Song Qiyan was very cunning and might not even accept gifts. Whether she could repay the favor or not depended on his mood.

"There is one more thing Wanwan wants to ask Big Brother."

"What's the matter?"

"When the sun sets, will there be anyone around me?"

"Well..."

Jiang Xun thought for a moment and said, "You have a good relationship with Miss Wang, so I think you went with her."

"Miss Wang?"

Jiang Wanyu asked with a blank look in her eyes.

"Ningyuan Earl's daughter, Wang Xiangya, you were very close to her before..."

Jiang Xun stopped talking again and changed his words, "It's not that good."

"?"

What did Jiang Xun mean by this? He seemed to not want her to have any contact with Wang Xiangya, so he held back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

There must be something fishy going on here.

"Has Wanwan ever tried to commit suicide for Song Qiyan before?"

"This is not."

No matter how much Wanwan acted foolishly, she valued her life and was just pretending every time. When he knew that Jiang Wanyu really jumped into the water, he was extremely panicked.

"But Wanwan, please don't scare brother like this anymore. There are so many men in this world, and we don't need a Song Qiyan like him."

Jiang Xun touched Jiang Wanyu's head. He never wanted to lose his good sister because of a man again.

"Ah."

Jiang Wanyu nodded.

Having finally been reborn, she naturally didn't want to make the same mistake again.

Why would I have to chase after Song Qiyan if I didn't want to be a good young lady? I'm not as stupid as Jiang Wanyu.

Thinking about this, the two got off the carriage.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Jiang Sheng knelt on the ground, sticking his butt out and begging Jiang Xun for forgiveness, "Brother, Wanwan, I was wrong!"

Jiang Xun looked at him, his brows furrowed, and he said bluntly, "Jiang Sheng, Jiang Sheng, I turned a blind eye to your fun time, but now you are taking Wanwan to this dangerous place. If Song Qiyan hadn't arrived at the right time, who knows what would happen to Wanwan next!"

"Brother, I know I was wrong...but I didn't expect that male slave to be so bold as to touch Wanwan."

Jiang Sheng felt aggrieved.

"Still quibbling!"

Jiang Xun said to the servant beside him, "Come here, teach me the family rules! Now that my father is not here, I will teach you a lesson on his behalf."

"Master, do you really want to hit the Second Master?"

Chunniang asked.

I think no matter how mischievous the second young master is, the eldest young master is reluctant to use family rules.

"Now he has committed a crime and should be punished."

Hearing this, Chunniang didn't dare to persuade her anymore and hurriedly asked someone to go down and bring up the long and thick whip.

Jiang Wanyu was shocked when she saw this. If the fight continued, Jiang Sheng would not be able to get up for half a month.

Just as Jiang Xun was about to strike, Jiang Wanyu stepped in front of Jiang Sheng and said, "Brother, Second Brother didn't mean it. Besides, Wanwan is safe now, so please don't hit Second Brother. It will only hurt the relationship if you continue to hit him."

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng immediately hid behind Jiang Shengyu, "Wanwan is right, it hurts the harmony."

"You're not going to hurt our relationship at all. If I continue to indulge you, I'll be pissed off to death. Wanwan, get out of the way and let me punish you!"

But Jiang Wanyu insisted on standing in front of Jiang Sheng, and Jiang Xun had no choice but to let go.

It's really strange. Wanwan, who used to look down on her second brother for being shameful, is now protecting him.

Jiang Xun had no choice but to compromise.

"Forget it. For Wanwan's sake, I'll let you go today, but your salary this month will be halved."

"What?! Don't do that, big brother. I am now penniless. How can I live if you deduct my salary?"

Jiang Sheng cried bitterly. This hurt more than being beaten. It seemed that all the money was spent on finding a good pimp for Wanwan, and now his pockets were empty.

"How to live? I think you should just stay at home and avoid causing any more trouble."

Jiang Xun said to Jiang Sheng with a stern face, then walked to Jiang Wanyu and secretly stuffed a bag of silver into her.

"Brother has not been home often these days. If you need silver, you can ask Chunniang to send someone to the palace to tell me, and brother will give it to you."

After saying that, Jiang Xun rode the carriage back to the palace.

Jiang Wanyu stared blankly at the heavy silver in her hand, then looked at Jiang Sheng who was kneeling on the ground in grief, and couldn't help but smile.

This treatment is really a world of difference.

"Okay, second brother, don't cry. If you want the silver, Wanwan will give it to you."

Jiang Wanyu waved the silver in her hand in front of Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng stopped crying immediately, his eyes sparkling.

"My dear sister, are you really going to give it to your brother?"

"Of course I will give it to you, but I have to help my sister investigate something."

"Investigating what?"

Jiang Sheng got excited when he saw the silver, and patted his chest and said, "Sister, if you want to check, I will go through fire and water without hesitation. Even if it's about what underwear Song Qiyan wore today, I will check for you."

"........."

Jiang Wanyu paused as she swung the silver. Am I such a shameless person to Jiang Sheng?

Jiang Wanyu was a little tearful. It would take a lot of effort to change the image of her in her brothers' minds.

"That's not necessary."

As she spoke, Jiang Wanyu leaned close to Jiang Sheng's ear and whispered, "Investigate this matter thoroughly for me, and I'll give you some money after you're done."

"This is easy to handle, but why are you investigating this, Wanwan?"

Jiang Sheng frowned, looking at Jiang Wanyu, who had become cautious, with an indescribable sense of strangeness.

But she didn't think too much about it. After all, her good sister was reluctant to spend money on him before.

"Just do it. I have my reasons for doing it."

"Ok."

Hearing this, Jiang Sheng went down to tell others to do their job.
