Duke Jing's younger sister

Chapter 204 He is back

Jiang Minzhi looked at her twice, wanting to say something but stopping himself, and finally remained silent.

The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more.

She could have become a noble and respected Crown Princess, but now she can only humble herself and become the concubine of the infamous Third Prince.

The third prince has always been a playboy who indulges in sensual pleasures. If you marry him, your future life will be difficult.

Jiang Minzhi sighed heavily and waved his hand.

"Forget it. You chose your own path. This life is your own. Although I gave birth to you and raised you, I cannot control your life. Whether it will be a blessing or a curse in the future depends on your own fate."

"It's my daughter's fault..."

Jiang Li bowed deeply, and spoke with a heavy nasal tone.

"I'm sorry to have made you worry. Your daughter won't be able to be with you all the time in the future. I hope you can take care of yourself."

Jiang Cheng helped her up, "Ah Man, do you remember what I said when you came to pick me up after leaving the examination hall that day?"

Jiang Li naturally remembered.

The brother said that he would try his best to be her support.

It can make her feel free and have a strong support.

"Remember." She nodded.

"Okay!" Jiang Cheng said, "Remember, there will definitely be such a day!"

Jiang Li smiled at him and answered the same as that day, "Okay, I believe brother can do it."

After bidding farewell to his father and brother, Jiang Li boarded the sedan chair waiting outside the door and walked towards the Third Prince's residence.

Outside the Third Prince's Mansion, there were many people waiting to watch the fun.

In recent days, the affair between the Third Prince and the daughter of the Jiang family has spread all over the city.

They all wanted to see what this legendary girl from the Jiang family who looked like Xi Shi looked like.

Look at what kind of charm she has that can play three men at her will.

Fortunately, Xiao Wencong's wedding dress came with a veil when it was delivered.

When Xingping saw those malicious looks at the door, she glared back fiercely.

Then he moved closer to the window and angrily said to Jiang Li through the curtain,

"Girl, please cover yourself with your wedding veil when you get off the sedan chair, so you don't have to see those annoying people. It's really an eyesore!"

Through the window curtains, Jiang Li glanced at the crowd outside, nodded, and covered her head with the veil.

As soon as the sedan chair landed, Luo Zhi carefully helped Jiang Li out of the sedan chair, led her through the gap in the crowd, and slowly walked towards the gate of the palace.

There was a noisy discussion all around, like a swarm of bees buzzing in my ears.

"Oh, she's just a concubine, but she has to put on such a show and wear wedding clothes?"

"A concubine is just a concubine. Even if she wears wedding clothes, it's just like putting white ash on a crow - it can't be whitened!"

"Why are you afraid to see people?"

"That's right, after doing something like that, are you still afraid of being seen?"

Everyone was talking at once, not hiding the contempt and ridicule in their words.

Every word was like an invisible stone thrown at the woman in her wedding dress.

But her steps were not at all hurried, and with Luo Zhi's guidance, she climbed the stairs steadily.

A burst of hurried horse hoof sounds came.

The sound came from far away and gradually approached, and everyone thought it was an urgent message sent back from the northern border over 800 miles away.

However, the person sitting on the white horse was clearly a tall man wearing a dark blue brocade robe and with a graceful figure like jade.

Rather than a messenger in a soldier's uniform.

A cry of surprise came from the crowd: "Look, isn't that Duke Jingguo?"

"Isn't he in the North? Why is he back?"

"Isn't he coming back to grab the bride?"

Everyone was very excited and looked forward to a good show.

Jiang Li had just stepped over the threshold when she heard a sound outside the door and her body suddenly stiffened.

She stopped and the red veil blocked her vision, so she could only see a small area under her feet.

As the horse neighed, she heard someone jump off the horse's back and fall to the ground.

Then, there were steady and powerful footsteps on the stairs, approaching her step by step.

My heart was pounding in my chest.

She felt extremely nervous and subconsciously bit her lower lip, and was at a loss for a moment.

is it him?

Is it really him who is back?

At this moment, she expected it to be him, but she was also extremely afraid that it was him.

The tips of a pair of black boots stopped in front of her, followed by a piece of dark blue robe.

The owner of the green robe seemed to have traveled all the way here.

The corners of the robe were slightly wrinkled and stained with dust, not as spotless as before.

"Close the door!"

Through the dazzling red mandarin duck veil, he could clearly see her thin shoulders tremble slightly.

She seemed shocked that he came back.

Jiang Li was indeed shocked.

It's his voice!

He is really back...

The joy of reunion after a long separation had not yet surged into my heart before it was extinguished by this inappropriate reunion scene.

Why did he come back suddenly?

If she had known that he would come back today, she could have waited...

If we had waited just one more day, perhaps the situation wouldn't be like this now.

Just one day, just one step away...

She clenched her fists tightly, and waves of pain emanated from her fingers that had not yet healed, but she was completely unaware of it.

I just felt a sharp pain in my chest, as if my heart had been dug out by someone, leaving only a bloody hole.

The servant guarding the palace gate was stunned when he heard this.

I secretly wondered in my heart, could it be that Duke Jingguo treated this as his own home and dared to issue orders in the palace?

However, when he saw the cold and gloomy face of Duke Jingguo, he quickly did as he was told and closed the door, blocking out the noise outside.

Jiang Li only felt someone holding her wrist tightly, and then she was pulled forward.

Although her head was still covered with a veil, she could feel his anger from the slightly forceful palm of his hand.

The skirt of this wedding dress was not wide and was rather long, making it impossible to take big steps forward.

He moved quickly and immediately realized that there was something wrong with her skirt, so he just picked her up sideways.

Jiang Li felt dizzy and her veil slipped off her bun.

Thousands of rays of sunlight poured down, dazzling her so that she couldn't open her eyes. After adjusting for a moment, she quietly opened her eyes a crack.

Beams of light like broken gold scattered across the garden, and mottled shadows of the trees passed quickly between his eyebrows.

He looked tired.

The brocade robe on his body was slightly wrinkled, and even a few stubbles had grown on his chin.

Even so, it still cannot conceal his handsome face, which is unique and there is no one like him in the world.

But where should he take her now?

"Put me down. This is... not appropriate." Jiang Li said.
