Chapter 822 Queen Jiang’s Warning
Zhang Yumo was very nervous when Jiang Fenghua was staring at her. She always felt that Jiang Fenghua could see through her.
She said, "I'm leaving first. Mother will take Xiaochu with her..."
"Zhang Yumo." Jiang Fenghua said in a deep voice.
"Ah!" Zhang Yumo was stunned, "Why did the Queen suddenly call my name?"
She became more and more nervous, not understanding why the Queen looked at her like that.
"I hope you remember that you are now a member of the Jiang family and Jiang Jinyan's bedside. If you are willing to continue to stay in the Jiang family, I welcome you very much. You will always be my sister-in-law. If you don't want to, the Jiang family will not force you."
Jiang Fenghua didn't joke with her and went straight to the point. "I will abandon anyone who doesn't have the Jiang family in their heart. My heart is not as broad as you think. I am selfish and short-sighted. If you want to be a member of the Jiang family, you must never bend your elbows."
Zhang Yumo didn't expect the Queen to have such an attitude. Could it be because she spoke up for her cousin and made her angry?
Zhang Yumo did not dare to talk back to the Queen. Even though she was aloof, she could not go back given the current situation of the Zhang family. Besides, it was impossible for her to go back after she got married. It did not make sense!
She needs Jiang Jinyan's protection.
She said gently, "Yu Mo has remembered what the queen said. I will be a good wife to Jiang Jinyan in the future and will not contact anyone from the Zhang family anymore."
"Isn't your cousin very pitiful?"
"No matter how pitiful she is, she is still the fourth prince's consort, with luxurious clothes and delicious food. She is more noble than ordinary people. I have no father or mother, and the only grandparents in the Zhang family who loved me have also left me." She added: "Now my relatives are only Xiaochu and my husband."
Jiang Fenghua was amazed at Zhang Yumo's insight. She had learned to weigh the pros and cons. The Jiang family was indeed her safe haven.
Jiang Fenghua was also a person who would give a sweet gift after giving a slap. She held Zhang Yumo's hand and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law is the eldest lady of the Jiang family. You will be the head of the Jiang family in the future."
"I want you to remember that people only have one life. No matter how partial God is to us, we must cherish our own lives and protect our common family. As for other people, they are really irrelevant. You speak for her in front of everyone. Even if what you say makes sense, what does it matter? It was your husband that Zhang Yurou wanted to plot against!"
Zhang Yumo knew that Jiang Fenghua had no ill will towards her. She blushed when she said this, because it was indeed her cousin who instigated Shu Xue to spread rumors about Jiang Jinyan and Bai Yuhan.
"Thank you for your teachings, Queen. I will remember them. I was a little rash in speaking for the Fourth Princess today."
Jiang Fenghua said: "You should go find mother and Xiaochu first. Now that the Zhang family has fallen, my sister-in-law can live in the Jiang family with peace of mind. I believe that your relationship with my brother will get better and better."
It’s not that she doesn’t like Jiang Jinyan, but she has closed her heart. This is probably related to the fact that Jiang Jinyan had repeatedly rejected the Zhang family’s proposal of marriage in his previous life.
Zhang Yumo was aloof and good at studying. She lost her life because of being rejected many times. Now she has come to her senses.
Unexpectedly, it was too late when she came to her senses. With her intervention in this life, she not only married Jiang Jinyan, but also gave birth to a daughter.
Zhang Yumo said, "I'll take my leave first." Although the queen called her sister-in-law in private, the proper etiquette between the monarch and his subject was still required.
Jiang Fenghua did not expose her. She was not sure how much Zhang Yumo knew about her past life. Although they had no intersection, the prestige of Duke Zhang's Mansion in the Great Zhou was still there. The Zhang family would attend any banquets held in the palace, and Old Madam Zhang would also bring Zhang Yumo to participate.
In her previous life, she lived a very humble life. Empress Dowager Cheng ordered her around, sometimes belittling and insulting her, and sometimes even beating her. In the end, she felt that she was a soft egg that could be squeezed and twisted at will, and that she could not win the emperor's heart, so she chose to give up on her.
The rumors about her in the outside world were even more outrageous. In Zhang Yumo's heart, she had a miserable life in Prince Heng's Mansion.
Lu Xuefei picked some flowers and handed them to Jiang Fenghua, "Why did Sister Yumo leave? I picked a bouquet for her too!"
"She's going back to take care of Xiaochu!"
Lu Xuefei said, "Sister Yumo just stood up for the Fourth Princess. Your Majesty must be very disappointed!"
She also didn't expect that Zhang Yumo would suddenly help the Fourth Princess in such an occasion. Although her surname was Zhang, she was also the wife of Marquis Wu'an and a member of the Jiang family.
"Thank you Xue Fei for the flowers, and thank you for coming to my rescue today." Jiang Fenghua added: "I owe you a favor."
At this point, the smile on Lu Xuefei's face disappeared instantly. "I have read so many laws, and today I said so many things against my will. Your Majesty, if power stands in the way, is there really no fairness in this world? Is it really just a slogan that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people?"
Jiang Fenghua knew that Lu Xuefei was a straightforward person. "Only when power is in your own hands can there be fairness. Otherwise, the world will never be fair and just. Justice is only for those in power. Remember, there is no way out for ordinary people to fight against power."
Lu Xuefei stared at Jiang Fenghua, "Your Majesty, back then..."
"I was indeed interested in the law at first, but Xue Fei, you have to know that the rules and regulations of the law were also set by the emperor." Jiang Fenghua added: "You are so smart, you will figure it out. Besides, the person you are going to marry in the future is also a member of the royal family, and you will be at the center of power."
Lu Xuefei blushed slightly, "What are you talking about, Your Majesty? I will not enter the palace."
"Don't you like His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi?" Jiang Fenghua asked directly.
Lu Xuefei did not deny it. "I do like the King of Qi, but he has never come to the Lu Mansion to propose marriage. I really want to ask him what he is thinking."
"Maybe it's because of inferiority complex!" Jiang Fenghua knew Xie Qi quite well. "Although he is a prince of the royal family, his upbringing is very different from yours, and he doesn't have the support of his mother's family. You are sunny and cheerful, and you are free and unrestrained. When have you ever seen the Eighth Prince be like you?"
Lu Xuefei said: "I have never looked down on him. He is actually very smart. I don't know what he means. Sometimes he is far away, and sometimes he is close."
"Do you want me to help you?" Jiang Fenghua said.
Lu Xuefei can do other things well and can think things through, but she seems to have difficulties with her love life.
Her eyes lit up, "How can I help, Madam?"
Jiang Fenghua said: "This is easy. The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, and the eldest brother is like a father. I will ask the emperor to grant you a marriage. Isn't this matter solved?"
"Your Majesty, please don't do that. Xue Fei wants to solve it on her own. Once the Emperor's marriage decree comes down, he will have to marry. I just want to find someone who is devoted to me. I don't want my partner to have three wives and four concubines, even if it's the prince. This request may be excessive, but I really don't like him to have other women besides me."
