Chapter 225 Retreating to Advance
The nanny breathed a sigh of relief. "Miss, it's good that you understand this. Love is fleeting. There is no way a family with many children and grandchildren can last forever."
She hadn't said anything more. No matter what kind of man he is, he is unreliable in the end. If you give your heart and soul to him, you will end up with scars all over.
Grasping what is in front of you and holding it in your hands is what you need to survive.
There is a difference between master and servant, so she did not excessively dissuade them from doing these things.
"Don't worry, I won't make the same mistake again. I just hate Jiang Ye for using me and my Nalan family as stepping stones. The Hua family also fell into decline, but Hua Guiqing was held in his hands."
Princess Yan mentioned Hua Guiqing with disgust.
"I don't know how these two got together, alas." The wet nurse could do nothing but sigh. After all, she was a servant and could only remind them from the side.
"When Jiang Ye was trying to please me, he and Hua Guiqing were already secretly pregnant."
Princess Yan's eyes flashed with ferocity, "When I was in the capital, these two people treated me like a fool."
She recalled the whole thing from beginning to end, and without the love to blind her eyes, she naturally discovered that something was wrong.
Jiang Ye had flaws from the beginning to the end, but she just didn't want to explore them.
For example, on her birthday, this man came hurriedly in the evening, with a hint of osmanthus fragrance on his body.
That time he made an excuse to get away with it, and that excuse was also ridiculous. Jiang Ye said at the time that he wanted to make a box of osmanthus-scented spices for her.
She didn't care about it that time and was even very touched.
A day later, he went to Prince Zhao's mansion to attend a birthday banquet, and also met Hua Guiqing there.
Hua Guiqing had been at the border for many years, and that time he returned to the capital was just to visit the family.
She was born into a family of military generals but she doesn't know how to fight. She looks so delicate and fragile that she can be blown down by a gust of wind.
With a newcomer appearing in front of these young ladies from aristocratic families, Hua Guiqing naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Thinking back to the day when they met each other, Hua Guiqing deliberately swung her sleeves in front of her, and the smell on her was exactly the same as Jiang Ye's.
I think the two of them had been hooking up before that.
She still remembered clearly the smile Hua Guiqing gave her when she turned around when they parted.
At this point, she also understood the meaning of Hua Guiqing's look, which was a provocation and even more of a mockery.
But she didn't understand at first and just thought Hua Guiqing was showing goodwill to her.
This little episode was soon forgotten by her.
The next time the two met was at the racecourse.
They, the noble women, also had their own pastimes. That year, polo was popular in the capital, and they would often play a game.
This time they were from different teams. When they met on horseback and passed each other, Hua Guiqing suddenly fell off her horse.
People always believe in the weak. As soon as Hua Guiqing shed tears, others naturally favor her.
Nalan Huixin is the second legitimate daughter of the Nalan family, and no one dares to mess with her.
The onlookers naturally believed that it was Nalan Huixin who pushed the man off the horse. If there had not been another girl beside her, she would have been unable to explain herself.
The next day, Jiang Ye came to Nalan's house and told her in both explicit and implicit ways not to bother with the weak woman.
The scent of osmanthus on Jiang Ye’s shoulder was stronger, probably because he had just met Hua Guiqing before coming here.
If her father hadn't appeared, Jiang Ye wouldn't know what to say.
That time, her father had a serious talk with her and wanted to refuse the marriage and defy the order, saying that the Nalan family could afford it.
And then she foolishly refused.
When Nalan Huixin thought of this, she wished she could beat herself to death.
If you don’t listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer for a hundred years.
The room was quiet, and the wet nurse had gone to prepare dinner.
Nalan Huixin sat alone in the room, her thoughts already set free.
She continued to recall the past, trying to wake up her silly self from those sweet memories.
The last time I heard news about Hua Guiqing was before I got married, and that was also news that caused a sensation in the capital.
Hua Guiqing died early, and because she was an unmarried girl, she could not be buried in the Hua family's ancestral tomb.
The Hua family carried the coffin for dozens of miles and found a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to bury the body.
Princess Yan opened her eyes, her eyes sharp, "I see! You deceived me so badly. Why did you do this to escape?"
She couldn't figure it out.
At that time, the Hua family was almost the top among military generals, just like the Nalan family in the literary world, both of them were a family that could command the respect of hundreds of people.
Hua Guiqing is qualified to marry Prince Yan. If she cannot become the princess consort, she can be a concubine.
Why go to that step?
"Could it be that the two of them were secretly pregnant and were afraid of being exposed?"
Princess Yan murmured to herself, somewhat confused.
The Prince of Yan swore in front of my father that there would not be a second person. Could this be related to it?
"Yes, it must be because of this. Hua Guiqing mentioned the Nalan family in my dream."
Princess Yan didn't know how Prince Yan and Hua Guiqing met, so she had to rely on guesswork.
Hua Gui Qingjing didn't die at all at first, but her belly was too big to be seen.
Prince Yan coveted the power of the Nalan family, and also coveted the military strength of the Hua family, so he tried to play two games between the two of them.
If the elders of the Hua family were in the capital, Hua Guiqing might not have fallen into such a situation.
No wonder Hua Guiqing gritted her teeth when she mentioned her father.
When Princess Yan thought of this, she felt uneasy.
"Hua Guiqing retreated to advance, and finally won over the King of Yan."
Hua Guiqing felt wronged, and it was no wonder that Jiang Ye acted like this.
Hua Guiqing must have been involved in the affairs of the Nalan family.
When the Hua family fell into decline, this man became jealous and instigated Jiang Ye to put the blame on the Nalan family.
This person just wanted to watch her fall into the mire.
If the Nalan family did not have so many disciples, she, the Princess of Yan, would naturally have been deposed.
"Miss, please eat something quickly. Go to bed early tonight as you need to be alert tomorrow." The wet nurse waved away the others and served Princess Yan alone.
Princess Yan was preoccupied and didn't eat fast. She chewed each mouthful of food more than ten times and was obviously absent-minded.
The wet nurse didn't say much. One person served the food while the other ate.
At the end, when Princess Yan was about 80% full, the wet nurse spoke.
"Miss, the prince did go there and called a doctor. Someone else came to pick up the doctor, and they have already set out from the corner gate."
"Not bad." Princess Yan's mood suddenly improved, with a smile on her face, "It seems that the injury is serious, and they even called the miracle doctor."
"I heard that your body and face were covered with sawdust, and you were almost like a hedgehog." The nurse's tone was not excited, but a little worried, "Miss, you were alone at the time, would you~"
"Let him doubt me, I will never admit it. The fact that I know martial arts is kept a secret by the entire Nalan family, so there is no way he would know about it."
Princess Yan was in a good mood. "Although I am not as good as Azhu, my internal strength is enough to hurt a woman."
The Prince of Yan's Mansion was peaceful overnight, and in the afternoon of the next day, Jiang Zhu returned from the border.
The three of them gathered in the study.
