ARDA - Chapter 180 - The Crown Prince's Person

 Jin Jingxiu was stunned. He didn't know why Yue'er hated him. He didn't know what he had done wrong.

Jiang Mengyue's cold and disgusted eyes broke his heart, and he froze in place, forgetting to speak for a moment.

He thought Yue'er also liked him...

Otherwise, why would she treat him tenderly during this period?

He thought Yue'er would be happy if he proposed to get married, but now...

Jiang Mengyue looked at him coldly as if facing a formidable enemy, fearing that he would take a step closer and get involved.

Lord Jiang came to his senses with a gloomy expression on his face. He had to take this rebellious girl back quickly, otherwise he would be humiliated. She had the reputation of being the daughter of the Marquis's family, and it was Marquis who would be humiliated if word spread about the secret exchange. 

"Take her back quickly!"

Lord Jiang ordered in a cold voice.

"Yes." The steward quickly called people, preparing to take Jiang Mengyue away by force.

Jin Jingxiu was still in the shock and could not come back to his senses. Jiang Mengyue's words gradually made his heart cool down. His years of love and passion seemed to have become a joke.

The person in charge walked over and was about to catch Jiang Mengyue.

At this moment, a black figure suddenly appeared and walked to Lord Jiang.

"Master Jiang, my lord has invited you."

Lord Jiang looked at the man in front of him with a cold breath. This man appeared out of nowhere and silently. He couldn't help but shuddered and asked, "Who is your master?"

The man did not speak, but took out a token and approached Lord Jiang.

Lord Jiang retreated cautiously, and just as he was about to call someone, he saw the token out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but be stunned.

That's...

The wooden sign is engraved with a four-clawed golden dragon! 

Lord Jiang was shaken all over and sweat ran down his back.

The Crown prince wants to see him?

Why did the high-ranking person in the palace come to him...

"Marquis Jiang, please." The man put away the token and said the word "please" lightly.

Lord Jiang was stunned and didn't know how to react for a moment. The prince would never come to him for no reason. Could it be... Lord Jiang looked at Jiang Mengyue out of nowhere.

The corners of Jiang Mengyue's lips were slightly raised, and she raised her chin high, showing a proud look.

She knew that His Highness the Crown Prince would definitely protect her.

The Marquis will definitely regret it so much that his intestines will turn green because the abandoned daughter actually got involved with the crown prince.

What a wonderful expression...

Lord Jiang's face turned pale. Seeing Jiang Mengyue's arrogant expression, he couldn't help but think that this rebellious girl might have developed a relationship with the crown prince...

"Master Jiang?" the man reminded impatiently.

Only then did Lord Jiang react and responded quickly.

The crown prince has summoned, how can he not go? If the crown prince is offended, the entire Marquis family will suffer.

The man said calmly, "Please."

Marquis Jiang did not dare to delay. He could not take care of Jiang Mengyue at this time. Besides, if Jiang Mengyue was the person the crown prince wanted to protect, he would be making trouble on Tai Sui's head!

Lord Jiang quickly waved his hand and told the steward and others to leave.

"Everyone go back!"

The steward was puzzled, "Sir, do you still want to take the second lady back?"

Marquis Jiang glared at him, and the steward immediately understood the look, stopped talking, and immediately evacuated.

Lord Jiang said to the man in black, "Please lead the way."

The people brought by Lord Jiang quickly dispersed, and silence returned to the door.

Jiang Mengyue sneered, turned around and prepared to step into the house. From the corner of her eye, she saw Jin Jingxiu still standing blankly at the door. She realized that she was a little excited. Jin Jingxiu was still of some use, and the Jin family's financial resources were of great value to her. 

She calmed down and walked over, "Jing Xiu..."

Jin Jingxiu suddenly took a step back, as if he was frightened.

Yue'er's disgusted face seemed to be still in front of him, and his passionate blood had already cooled down.

Jiang Mengyue wanted to turn around and leave, but she had to coax this fool. She stood there looking pitiful and said, "Jing Xiu, are you scared... My intention was not like that, I..."

Jin Jingxiu is still in the midst of the impact. He is a human being and he will be injured.

Jiang Mengyue's disgusting words were like a knife inserted into his heart, causing a bloody wound.

Seeing Jin Jingxiu's lack of response, Jiang Mengyue frowned and bit her lower lip.

She forced tears out of her eyes, her eyes were red, and she looked up at him, "Jing Xiu, it's not that I don't want to marry you..."

"Why is that?" Jin Jingxiu saw Jiang Mengyue crying. For the first time, he didn't feel distressed, but looked at her quietly.

Jiang Mengyue's tears fell like broken beads, and she cried pitifully, "I am not the real daughter of the Marquis family, and I was kicked out by the Marquis family... If I marry into the Jin family like this, what will Madam Jin think of me?"

"Will Madam Jin really agree to this marriage?"

"Of course Mom will agree..." Jin Jingxiu said matter-of-factly. He likes Yue'er and wants to marry Yue'er, and Mom will definitely agree.

"No, Madam Jin will not agree."

Jiang Mengyue shook her head, "Otherwise, why didn't Madam Jin let you go to the Marquis Mansion to argue...and didn't let you help me?"

Jin Jingxiu was stunned in place, remembering his mother's cold words not to mention Jiang Mengyue, and not allowing him to see Yue'er, so she locked him in the room and thought about his mistakes behind closed doors.

"This……"

He was speechless for a moment.

Jiang Mengyue turned around and wiped her tears sadly, "Jing Xiu, I'm sorry, it was me who dragged you down."

"Yue'er..." Jin Jingxiu's heart was shaken. There was a reason why Yue'er treated him coldly just now, and the reason was his mother.

"Yue'er, it was my fault, I didn't worry about this."

Jiang Mengyue didn't reply, walked into the house, and said without looking back, "Jing Xiu, don't say anything about marrying me again, go back!"

The door is closed.

Jin Jingxiu immediately went to knock on the door, "Yue'er, don't worry, I will go and persuade my mother, she will definitely be willing to accept you..."

There was no response from inside.

Little did they know that the moment the door closed, Jiang Mengyue changed her expression to a cold expression and wiped away the tears on her face with a handkerchief.

Jin Jingxiu stood for a while and returned to Jin's house in despair.

..........

On the other side, Lord Jiang followed the man in black to a teahouse.

The teahouse is heavily guarded and no outsiders are allowed to enter.

Lord Jiang raised his face, glanced at the teahouse, and walked in.

In the darkness, a gaze stared at Lord Jiang's back, turned around resolutely, and immediately went back to report.

Ning'an Courtyard.

Shuangyue got the secret guard's information and immediately reported it to Jiang Ning.

"Miss, we found out that the guards guarding Jiang Mengyue are from the Crown prince!"

Jiang Ning's hand holding the medical book froze and she raised her face, "Crown Prince?"

"Not the Fourth Prince?"

"It's the Crown prince's guard." Shuangyue confirmed. A secret guard saw Lord Jiang going to see the crown prince.

Jiang Ning was surprised. She didn't expect that the person Jiang Mengyue was clinging to was actually the crown prince... She thought it was the fourth prince. After all, Jiang Mengyue became the fourth princess in her previous life.

It was so unexpected.
