Chapter 304 Muddy the Water
Chapter 304 Muddy the Water
Jiang Tunan felt that he had slept for a long time, but Chunhua said that she had only slept for a cup of tea.
"Since Uncle Xiao asked me to go, let's go now."
Today is her last day of vacation. Her original plan was to visit the eldest princess in the morning and Yu Niang and her brother in the afternoon. Who knew that she would accomplish two things in one morning.
"Chunhua, please help me prepare the carriage after dinner. I have to go out again in the afternoon."
Chunhua responded softly, and Jiang Tunan also recalled in his mind what he had just seen in the dream, and he could get a lot of information.
First of all, the eldest princess will turn evil later, and my task should be to stop her from turning evil.
There are probably two reasons for her darkening: the first is her unstable relationship with Gu Wenfang; the second is the death of the fifth princess. So she must start from these two points. If she can stop the eldest princess from turning dark, it is equivalent to saving Xiao Mingxu from being killed.
Then there is some other information, such as Wen Yinzhi died at the hands of Hua Bei because he poisoned Su Xiaoxiao, but Jiang Tunan has not figured out the reason why he poisoned her.
And there’s that disciple named Guimu. Jiang Tunan had never heard of him. He might be a new character. Anyway, no one knew how he got into conflict with the Xiao family.
And it may be related to the Yun family. Gulang said before in Wushizhai that most of the Yun family members were dead. Then, could the Yun family members who appeared later be the ones who did not die that year?
So what is their purpose? Is it for revenge or to find out the truth?
Jiang Tunan's CPU was almost smoking from worrying about one question after another, and when she came to her senses, she had already arrived at the flower hall.
Xiao Mingxu and Xiao Mingrui are in the Imperial College today, so they are not here. Xiao Mingli just came back with Jiang Tunan and has changed into casual clothes.
"Nannan, come here quickly. I heard that you were wronged today. Come and tell me about it."
Jiang Tunan glanced at Xiao Mingli, only to see him turning his head away somewhat embarrassedly. It seemed that it was Xiao Mingli who told Xiao Huaimin what happened today.
"Uncle, I'm fine, it's all a misunderstanding."
Since having a heart-to-heart talk with Jiang Shouyan, Jiang Tunan's attitude towards people and things has changed a little.
Before, she just wanted to survive and turned a blind eye to the provocations and sarcasm from those around her, but all she got in return was their increasing arrogance.
After Zhang Qi's incident, Jiang Tunan found a new balance. In fact, sometimes an appropriate counterattack can slightly shock others and is also beneficial to the patency of one's own breasts.
However, it was fine for her to be more casual outside, but she didn't want to trouble Xiao Huaimin to worry about her.
"If you are wronged, tell your uncle. He can help you vent your anger. I just said it's polite. As your cousin, he didn't speak up for you. It's really wrong."
Xiao Huaimin glared at Xiao Mingli, then touched Jiang Tunan's head soothingly.
Jiang Tunan's heart suddenly turned cold. It turned out that Xiao Mingli was telling tales. He thought he was standing up for him.
But then again, why would the male protagonist help other opposite sexes besides the female protagonist? I guess even if the male protagonist's biological mother came, she would have to stand aside.
"Uncle, I did push Miss Su, but I refused to apologize because she slandered me first. I know it's wrong to do so, and it's okay for uncle to punish me."
Ji Xinhui found an opportunity and spoke.
"You were originally the one who was right, but things became different after you started to attack. Fortunately, the Second Prince made excuses for you, and the Princess was also here, otherwise it would have been reasonable for the First Prince to attack you."
"Hey, ma'am, what you said is wrong. Are we just going to let those people slander Nannan? Nannan is right. Since they are pestering her, why don't we just make it real? At least we can vent our anger."
Ji Xinhui glanced at Xiao Huaimin with dissatisfaction, but didn't say anything else.
Jiang Tunan actually wanted to tell Xiao Huaimin that great minds think alike, but after seeing Mrs. Xiao's attitude just now, he still maintained a self-reflective look on his face.
"Haha, it seems my cousin is also a sentimental person. I think that's great."
Since Xiao Mingyue joined the Imperial Guard, he was like a fish jumping into running water, with a smile on his face every day. Now that the atmosphere at the dinner table has cooled down, he came out to liven it up.
"Xiao Nan's personality is likable. It would be nice if I had a sister as lively as Xiao Nan."
Luo Yunqing followed her husband's lead and cast a gentle look towards Jiang Tunan while speaking.
"I'm sorry, cousin. I didn't mean to not help you. It's just that you..."
Xiao Mingli had a conflicted look on his face. At that time, he only saw Jiang Tunan suddenly push Su Xiaoxiao. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed that Jiang Tunan was the first to provoke him. He was afraid that the eldest prince would get angry and hurt Jiang Tunan, so he asked her to apologize first.
After hearing what my father said just now, I felt that Jiang Tunan was not completely wrong. When I first went there, I saw the eldest prince sending people to hold Jiang Tunan down. Maybe he was deliberately making things difficult for him.
It was all her fault that she had gotten so confused for some reason. No wonder Jiang Tunan suddenly became so unwilling to talk to her. She must have been angry.
"Although there are reasons for what happened, Mingli, you did nothing wrong. If you really sided with her, it might make the matter worse."
Ji Xinhui has always felt sorry for Xiao Mingli, so she naturally came out to speak for him at this time.
"Humph, if you want to blame someone, blame that Su Xiaoxiao. She always causes trouble for our Nan Nan. She's as annoying as her grandfather."
Jiang Tunan pursed his lips and said nothing, but he agreed deeply in his heart.
"I also heard that someone found the Nine Needles for Restoring Yang today?"
Xiao Huaimin sighed.
"It looks like the First Prince's faction and the Second Prince's faction will argue for a long time again during tomorrow's morning court session."
Xiao Mingyue asked in a rough voice,
"Dad, do you think the Nine Needles for Restoring Yang are really that magical? If I give Xiaobao a few injections..."
Xiaobao's epilepsy has stabilized a lot. Jiang Tunan also invited Wen Yinzhi to see him. Wen Yinzhi found many prescriptions for treating epilepsy from the medical books left by his master.
With Luo Yunqing's patient guidance, Xiaobao's psychological problems have improved a lot. Although he can't become a normal person again, he can sometimes talk to people.
"Don't even think about it. The Nine Needles for Rejuvenating Yang is not something we can afford to think about."
Xiao Huaimin's tone became more serious, and Ji Xinhui expressed the same idea.
"I'm not greedy for this, just have someone come over and give me a few injections."
Jiang Tunan listened to Xiao Mingyue's muttering and thought to himself that this was not a good idea. Once the nine needles were inserted, it didn't matter whether you were a healthy person or a half-dead person, you would be completely dead in three days.
Thinking about the situation of Yu Niang and Xiao Wu, Jiang Tunan couldn't help but worry again, and she was also hesitating whether to tell Xiao Huaimin about these things, but if Xiao Huaimin knew about it, it would mean that he would be dragged into this matter.
If only the younger generation were involved, it could be said that it was just children playing around, but once Xiao Huaimin got involved, the nature of the matter became different.
Jiang Tunan still wanted to wait until Xiao Mingrui and Xiao Mingxu came back before making any plans.
So everyone finished their lunch with their own thoughts, and Jiang Tunan prepared to go out as soon as he returned to the yard.
"Miss, where are we going?"
Jiang Tunan got on the carriage and said in a positive tone,
"Let's go to Prince Guangping's Palace."
