Chapter 84 Fiery Girl 2
It was quite a while after Gu Yuan left that Jiang Luan finally stood up from her seat.
She glanced at Old Madam Jiang and whispered, "Grandmother, the gardenias in the Princess's residence are in full bloom."
"I've listened to my granddaughter's opera and tea, and now I want to go admire the flowers."
Madam Jiang's gaze fell on her, and she said calmly, "Go, be careful."
Jiang Luan nodded quickly, "Yes, Grandmother."
As she left, Jiang Luan's gaze fell on Jiang Zhi, revealing a disdainful expression.
Jiang Zhicai didn't care and waited to watch the show.
She picked up a small ball and put it in her mouth. It was taro paste mixed with cheese filling, soft and delicious.
Seeing her granddaughter so calm, Madam Jiang said, "Zhi'er, the gardenias at Princess Zhaoyang's residence are in bloom. Why don't you and your cousin go and take a look?"
Jiang Zhi smiled and said, "Grandmother, what's so interesting about gardenias? The play is what's interesting."
Old Madam Jiang was still reeling from Jiang Zhi's words.
Many singing girls from the Western Regions came to the attic.
With her face veiled by a beaded curtain and her bare feet touching the ground, the delicate bells on her ankles jingled as she danced.
Jiang Zhi raised her eyes and her gaze fell on the Imperial Noble Consort who was chatting and laughing with Princess Zhaoyang.
She paused for a moment, thinking that she should change her clothes by noon.
Jiang Zhi lowered her eyes and heard hurried footsteps coming from downstairs.
Judging from the footsteps, it's noon.
as predicted.
Jiang Zhi looked up and saw a man dressed in hemp clothing hurriedly walk up to Princess Zhaoyang.
Her body was trembling, and she stammered, "Your Highness, Princess, something has happened."
Princess Zhaoyang immediately stood up and asked, "What happened?"
Wu Shi said, "When I went to deliver the delicacies to the gentlemen's private rooms just now, I heard... I heard a woman's voice coming from the men's private room, as if they were having an affair."
"What?!" Zhao Yang roared. "How dare you do such a thing in my residence! Don't you have a death wish?!"
She turned to the Imperial Noble Consort and said, "Your Majesty, I have some matters to attend to. Please rest here for now."
Jiang Zhi turned to look around. "Grandmother, why has Sister Luan been admiring the flowers for so long?"
"Has something happened?"
“Yes,” Lu Nianqiu said, “Could she be lost? It would be bad if she were lost. Why don’t we go look for her?”
Madam Jiang leaned on her cane, pondered for a moment, and said to Zhaoyang, "Princess, we don't know where in the manor our second daughter is admiring the flowers. Please allow us to look for her. Once we find her, we will leave the manor."
“It’s alright,” Zhaoyang said.
The Imperial Noble Consort smiled slightly. "Go."
Led by the midday guide, we headed to the private room.
At that moment, Wen Yanran, who was sitting in the chair, heard something and secretly followed Zhao Yang to catch them in the act of adultery.
Before long, they arrived at the northernmost private room.
The closer they got, the more offensive sounds came from inside the room.
"Brother Yuan, are you... the one who loves me the most...?"
"Listen to me, concentrate."
Then came intermittent moans and the man's lewd remarks.
The people at the door were stunned, while a smile lingered on Jiang Zhi's lips.
Although she hated such sounds, she found it quite satisfying.
Zhao Yang's expression changed drastically. He pushed open the door and entered, only to see a woman dressed in a Western Region dance costume, revealing her waist and abdomen, happily riding on a man's back.
The two people on the bed immediately panicked.
Because of the hasty arrival, Gu Yuan immediately shook off Jiang Luan and hurriedly put on his clothes.
Gu Yuan was handsome and a member of the royal family, so he always appeared as a refined gentleman in public.
At this moment, his blue robe hung loosely on his body, and his hair was disheveled; he no longer possessed the bearing of a royal prince.
"Brother Gu Yuan, what are you doing!" Zhao Yang shouted angrily.
Seeing the crowd watching, he immediately shifted all the blame onto Jiang Luan, "I was bewitched by this vixen!"
Jiang Luan struggled to stay upright, staring wide-eyed at Gu Yuan, "What?"
When Madam Jiang saw Jiang Luan dressed as a courtesan, she was immediately enraged.
"Jiang Luan, why are you dressed like this?"
Jiang Luan dared not speak, trembling as she looked at Old Madam Jiang. She crawled to Old Madam Jiang's side and choked out, "Grandmother, Grandmother, it wasn't me, it wasn't us..."
Madam Jiang was so angry that her face turned red, and she immediately gave instructions to the nanny beside her.
"Quickly grab some clothes and put them on her, you shameful thing!"
As she spoke, a nanny came over, took off her coat, draped it over Jiang Luan, and helped her up from the ground.
Wen Yanran, who suddenly appeared, exclaimed, "Oh, you're playing a game?"
Jiang Zhi pursed her lips and scratched her cheek.
Madam Jiang asked, "What exactly happened to you? Why are you with Prince Jing?"
Jiang Luan bit her lip and stammered, "Grandmother, I went to the wrong place. I don't know why?"
"I am a man of impeccable morals, and it was this vixen who bewitched me!" Gu Yuan added.
Jiang Luan's eyes widened in shock at Gu Yuan's words.
Before she could even speak, Old Madam Jiang flew into a rage, suddenly reaching out and slapping Jiang Luan hard across the face.
"Shameless bastard! How could you be so shameless!"
Jiang Luan was completely stunned by the slap. Her cheek stung, and tears streamed down her face instantly.
Old Madam Jiang leaned on her cane, her face extremely pale.
Jiang Zhi smiled slightly, "Grandmother, if that's the case, then we must go back and carefully examine whether Sister Luan is a virgin."
Jiang Zhi explained, "His Highness Prince Jing said that it was Sister Luan who bewitched him. If she is innocent, then it's just empty talk. If she isn't innocent..."
Jiang Zhi's voice wasn't loud, but each word reached the ears of everyone outside the door.
"Is this what catching someone in the act of adultery is like?" Wen Yanran asked curiously, sticking his head out.
“You…” Jiang Luan, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised her head after hearing this.
Jiang Zhi stood to the side, her expression calm.
Whispers could be heard again from the surrounding area.
Old Madam Jiang, leaning tightly on her cane, walked up to Jiang Luan, her eyes fierce. "Speak! What exactly happened? Weren't you going to admire the flowers? Why are you here?"
Jiang Luan shrank back in fright at the old lady's expression.
She shook her head repeatedly, "Grandmother... I don't know either, really, granddaughter... granddaughter"
"Snapped!"
Before he could finish speaking, another loud slap landed hard on his face.
"Are you trying to drive me crazy? Are you trying to disgrace the Jiang family?!"
Jiang Luan felt a stinging pain on her right cheek. She reached up to touch her face, lowered her head, and sobbed. Then she heard the angry voice of Old Madam Jiang.
"Guards, drag the Second Miss back to the manor!"
Ultimately, this concerns the reputation of the Zhenyuan Marquis's mansion, and Madam Jiang naturally hopes that this matter will end as soon as possible.
Two old women who were standing next to Madam Jiang went over and helped Jiang Luan out of the room.
When Jiang Luan left, she kept her head down and couldn't lift it at all.
After everyone left, Old Madam Jiang managed to force a smile onto her face.
Madam Jiang said to Zhaoyang, "Princess, today, it was the second maid of the manor who disturbed the princess's banquet."
"This old woman apologizes to the princess."
