Chapter 158 This pregnancy is a fraud
The next morning, Jiang Yuan had a patrol shift. He got up early, packed up, and went to the Flying Tiger Battalion patrol shift change place.
Patrolling the entire camp, there are fixed routes and areas, and it takes more than an hour to complete a full circle.
After the shift change, those who participated in the hunting had already set off. Jiang Yuan strolled to the square, holding two blades of grass in one hand and three round stones in the other.
He greeted Qu Ying while holding up a piece of grass. From a distance, he saw Qu Ying talking to the princess for a few words. After paying respect to the emperor, he stepped down from the platform and ran towards Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan held three stones in one hand, swung them around, threw them up and caught them, like juggling.
Out of the corner of her eye she saw Lord Xie, staring at her with a sullen face.
Jiang Yuan caught the stone, smiled at Xie Hou, and threw the stone in his hand up again. The three stones formed a closed loop and kept rotating in his hand.
Lord Xie's face darkened. He glared at Jiang Yuan and turned his head away.
The emperor saw the whole scene and exchanged glances with the eldest princess, who glared at Marquis Xie.
The victory of Jiang Yuan and Qu Jin yesterday was so inspiring that King Anyang could not hold back and followed the young men into the mountains to hunt today, saying that he wanted to have a good fight.
"Where is Qu Jin?" Jiang Yuan asked.
Taking the two blades of grass from Jiang Yuan and playing with them in his hands, Qu Ying replied, "I went to the outer area for inspection with my elder brother."
"Hey, I saw Jiang Wan and Qin Yunzheng this morning." Qu Ying said.
Jiang Yuan nodded. "I saw them from a distance when I was patrolling this morning. They seemed to be arguing."
"Yes, Princess Jin is not giving up and has been looking for a wife for Qin Yunzheng. I heard from my mother that the princess has been asking Jiang Wan to behave herself recently and she gets angry when she returns to the courtyard.
Qin Yunzheng was also unhappy and went out to spend his days drinking and partying.
Lord Jiang came to the prince and told him that he hoped to make Jiang Wan his legitimate wife, and I heard that he promised her a lot of benefits.
But the princess has been looking for a wife, and it is obvious that she does not want to make her the first wife. Qin Yunzheng did not want to invite her to the hunting trip this time, but she insisted on going along.
Oh, by the way, I heard she is pregnant."
"Jiang Wan is pregnant?" This news surprised Jiang Yuan a little. Some memories suddenly flashed through his mind, memories of his previous life.
In the previous life, Jiang Wan and Qin Yunzheng were secretly having an affair and had been together since before entering the palace.
Later, in order to torture Jiang Yuan more conveniently, Qin Yunzheng asked to marry Jiang Wan as a concubine on the grounds that Jiang Yuan was weak and the imperial physician diagnosed that she could not get pregnant.
Jiang Zhou disagreed, as he couldn't have both daughters marry into Prince Jin's Mansion. However, Jiang Wan persuaded Jiang Zhou, probably saying that Jiang Yuan wouldn't live long, and then she would be the principal wife.
The real torture for Jiang Yuan began after Jiang Wan entered the mansion. Every once in a while, she would chop off a part of Jiang Yuan's finger. One hand had to suffer the pain of having fingers cut off fourteen times.
Until Jiang Yuan committed suicide with a hairpin, Jiang Wan had been married into Prince Jin's Mansion for half a year, but there was no news of her pregnancy.
In her previous life, she and Qin Yunzheng were in cahoots with each other and had a very good relationship. They were very loving and affectionate, which was much better than the current chaotic situation.
How come she didn’t get pregnant in her previous life, but got pregnant so easily in this life? No, there must be something fishy going on.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan grabbed Qu Ying's wrist and said, "From now on, stay away from Jiang Wan and don't be alone with her."
"Why?" Qu Ying had just asked when Jiang Wan and another girl came towards them.
Jiang Yuan pulled Qu Ying back a step and saw clearly that the other girl next to Jiang Wan was the second daughter of another vice minister of the Ministry of Rites, Vice Minister Zhao.
Seeing Jiang Yuan and Qu Ying, Jiang Wan's eyes lit up. Supported by Miss Zhao, she quickened her pace and walked towards them.
Jiang Yuan pulled Qu Ying back away. Fortunately, they had just reached the tent area, and a few steps back was a wide square. There were people coming and going on the square, and there were guards guarding it.
They retreated to the edge of the tent area and stood still.
Jiang Wan saw the two of them retreating one step or two, and she didn't know what they meant, but she felt furious. Thinking of the last time Jiang Yuan came back to the Jiang Mansion to laugh at her, she became even more furious.
When he was a few steps away from the two of them, Jiang Yuan took out a short arrow from his waist, pointed it at Jiang Wan, and warned her, "Don't go any further, otherwise, I will kill you."
Jiang Wan paused, very surprised.
Miss Zhao beside him had a hot temper. She yelled, "How dare you, in the royal hunting grounds, you dare to threaten the prince's concubine with a short arrow? You're asking for your life."
Jiang Yuan pulled Qu Ying and took another step back, saying in a cold tone, "I was wrong. I distanced myself from you because I wanted to save my life."
Jiang Wan's eyes flashed with viciousness, and she was not afraid of Jiang Yuan's threat. She walked forward slowly and said to Jiang Yuan proudly, "Kill me if you have the guts. Come on."
Qu Ying also sensed something was wrong and wanted to step forward to stand in front of Jiang Yuan, but was stopped by Jiang Yuan.
Just then, a patrol team came running over, "Master Jiang, what happened?"
When a group of soldiers arrived, Jiang Wan's mouth twitched and she stopped moving forward.
At a glance, this team of soldiers were wearing the clothes of the Flying Tiger Battalion. They put down their hands holding the short arrows and put the short arrows back into their waists.
Now it was Jiang Yuan's turn to take charge. He crossed his arms and said jokingly, "Nothing has happened yet. Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise someone would have died."
The leader of the patrol team who was talking to Jiang Yuan became nervous when he heard this and looked in the direction of Jiang Wan, "Is there an assassin?"
Miss Zhao shouted, "Don't talk nonsense, my father is the Minister of Rites, this is the concubine of the Prince of Jin, what assassin, don't talk nonsense."
Jiang Wan also said, "Yes, second sister, even if you don't like me, you can't say such vicious things to slander your own sister in front of so many people."
The patrolling soldiers looked at each other in bewilderment. Is this General Xiao Jiang’s biological sister?
Jiang Yuan sneered, "If someone dies, there may not be an assassin. These two are certainly not assassins, but it is hard to say whether anyone will die.
After all, there is a little life in the big sister's belly. I am a hot-tempered person, so I have to stay away from the big sister. I am afraid that you will try to scam me."
"You...you are talking nonsense. You are cursing my child. I will tell the prince and report to the emperor to punish you."
Jiang Yuan stretched out his arm and pointed to the platform, "Please, and by the way, ask the imperial physician to come and see if Big Sister's pregnancy is stable."
Miss Zhao was fearless and held her head high, "Okay, if Sister Jiang's pregnancy becomes unstable because of you, the prince will definitely ask the emperor to punish you.
Don't be afraid, Sister Jiang. I will accompany you to find the emperor. I can testify for you that she was pointing a short arrow at you just now."
Miss Zhao was so focused on helping Jiang Wan that she didn't notice the slight change in Jiang Wan's expression.
Jiang Wan held Miss Zhao and pretended to be tolerant and generous, "Forget it, today is the day of hunting, the emperor and the prince are very happy.
My second sister is immature, and as her elder sister, I can’t follow suit.
Let's go, I'm a little tired, come back with me and rest for a while."
Miss Zhao supported Jiang Wan, and after turning around, she turned back and glared at Jiang Yuan fiercely.
Watching the two of them walk away, Jiang Yuan looked at the somewhat confused patrolling soldiers and Qu Ying who seemed to be thinking about something.
