Chapter 553: Master Has Many Thoughts
Jiang Ning was relieved.
With Gucheng’s ability, Mu Jian shouldn’t be able to deduce anything.
However, Huang Ying asked another soul-searching question: “Master, you said that Mu Jian would definitely reply to the letter. But since you didn’t sign it, he doesn’t know who wrote it. Who is he supposed to reply to?”
“Do you think I’m that stupid in your eyes?” Jiang Ningughed, “I left the location where the letter was ced.”
“This maid still feels it’s improper. Mu Jian seems to be a man with many thoughts. With an unsigned letter like this, you want him to take the bait, but I’m afraid it won’t be enough. Even if he really replies, he probably will observe secretly to see who picks up the letter.”
Jiang Ning couldn’t help but smile at Gucheng: “Look at our Sister Huang Ying, isn’t she smart? She can consider everything so thoroughly.”
Huang Yingined: “I’m actually worried, and you’re making fun of me.”
After all, it was she who brought up the suspicions about Mu Jian. If something goes wrong, she is the culprit.
Jiang Ningughed: “You worry too much, we have Gucheng. If he was able to quietly ce the letter on Mu Jian’s horse, isn’t he capable of taking it back without anyone noticing?”
Huang Yingughed: “Has the Master ever thought that doing so would make it even more suspicious? If it was just an ordinary pce maid who admired him, how could they have the ability to do such a thing?”<div>
“Let him suspect then. When he is suspicious, he will be curious and reply to the letter promptly.” Jiang Ningughed, “For someone like Mu Jian, strong curiosity and great self-confidence are worth exploiting.”
Huang Ying nodded: “Master really has more foresight than others and thinks everything through.”
“Are you saying that I’m cunning?”
“This maid is praising you.” Huang Ying held back a smile and left with the tea tray.
The next evening, Jiang Ningy in the lounge chair in the courtyard, reading and drinking tea, while two children yed nearby, apanied by a little eunuch, emitting noisy shouting.
A piercing scream from the children reached her ears, and Jiang Ning quickly covered them, mumbling, “Raising children is terrifying. I’m d, so d.”
“What are you d about, Master?” Huang Ying asked with a smile.
“I’m d I’m the Princess Consort, and I have plenty of people to help me take care of the children.”
“As the Master, you are highborn, unlike ordinary folk.”
“If I had discovered my pregnancy before reaching the Jiang Family, I would have definitely aborted the child.”
“Ah?” Huang Ying was shocked, “You can’t! After all, it’s your own child, no matter how hard it is, you shouldn’t abort it.”
Jiang Ning took a sip of tea: “Then I wouldn’t be willing to let myself endure that. If I hadn’t been taken in by the Jiang Family, with nothing to eat, and had two children, not to mention the gossips around, would I be able to raise them?”
“You have a point.”
Huang Ying knew about the situation of the two children at that time and sighed when she talked about it.
If it were anymoner, an unmarried pregnant woman would not know what to do.
Only because Jiang Ning was carrying the royal blood, she could rely on her children’s status and be treated like a great meritorious official.
Who would dare to say that the Emperor made Li Hongyuan the Crown Prince not because he had both a son and a daughter?
After all, the other sons of the Emperor had no male offspring.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and Gucheng, dressed in ck, slowly flew down from the tree,nding silently in front of Jiang Ning.<div>
Jiang Ning cast a nce at the two children in the distance, then lifted her chin towards Gucheng, signaling him to follow her to the study for a conversation.
