Before Jiang Yan could finish speaking, Jiang Peihuan interrupted her directly.

Meeting her puzzled gaze, Jiang Peihuan continued to speak, “Miss Jiang, I know you want to establish your own connections in the capital, but you shouldn’t have come to me.”

“Miss Jiang, please leave.”

Yue Er was waiting at the door. Hearing Jiang Peihuan’s voice, she immediately walked in.

Jiang Yan still wanted to say something, but when she saw Jiang Peihuan’s cold expression, she eventually turned around and left.

When she walked out of the door, Jiang Yan saw a familiar figure.

It was Xiao Nanye.

Jiang Yan’s gaze was firmly fixed on Xiao Nanye, but the man seemed to not see her, smiling warmly as he walked towards the Plum Garden.

“Huan Er?”

As he approached the entrance, Xiao Nanye softly called.

His voice was very gentle. Hearing this, a complex look appeared in Jiang Yan’s eyes. She paused for a moment, but eventually left directly.

Upon hearing Xiao Nanye’s voice, some of the indifference in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes dissipated.

Although she appeared normal, Xiao Nanye clearly sensed a change in her demeanor.

Looking at Jiang Peihuan, who was sitting in the chair, the man softly asked, “What’s the matter? Are you in a bad mood?”

Jiang Peihuan did not expect Xiao Nanye to be so sensitive. She thought about it and said softly,” Miss Jiang just came.”

Hearing this, Xiao Nanye frowned.

He sat down opposite Jiang Peihuan. As Yue Er was about to pour water for him, she saw the man pick up Jiang Peihuan’s teacup and drain it in one gulp.

Afterward, he poured himself a cup of tea.

Seeing this, Yue Er walked away with a smile.

“She has already been granted to Prince Qing as the main consort by Imperial brother,” Xiao Nanye said.

“I know, Miss Jiang just told me.”

“Oh right, this is a reward from my Imperial brother.”

As he spoke, Xiao Nanye glanced at Han Feng. The latter quickly stepped forward and placed a box in front of Jiang Peihuan.

“Open it and see.”

Upon hearing Xiao Nanye’s words, Jiang Peihuan gently opened the box before her.

There were all kinds of jewelry inside, and every one of them was extraordinary.

Seeing these items, a slight smile appeared in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes. “Why would His Majesty bestow so many rewards to me?”

“It’s what you deserve.”

“By the way, Meng Yi has already been imprisoned by the Emperor.”

Upon hearing Meng Yi’s name, a cold look appeared in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

After thinking for a moment, she looked at Xiao Nanye and said, “Didn’t His Majesty interrogate Meng Yi?”

“He has indeed been interrogated, but no matter what, Meng Yi refuses to speak, so…”

Seeing Jiang Peihuan’s expression turning grim, Xiao Nanye softly said, “Don’t worry, we will eventually find out everything Meng Yi has done.”

“I’m not worried. At this moment, the ones who should be anxious aren’t us,” Jiang Peihuan replied softly.

Hearing her words, Xiao Nanye was slightly taken aback, but then he laughed and said, “Huan Er is right. The ones who should be anxious at this moment are not us.”

A faint, inexplicable mockery appeared in the man’s smiling eyes.

Prince Qing’s Mansion.

Finally managing to calm Lin Mengyao, Xiao Junhao’s eyes were filled with exhaustion after she left.

At this moment, Pei Wu stepped forward and said, “Your Highness, Meng Yi is still in prison. What should we do?”

Pei Wu made a gesture of slitting his throat, but Xiao Junhao shook his head, “Imperial Father is already suspicious of me. At this time, if we kill Meng Yi, it will surely bring disaster upon us.”

“Then, Your Highness, do we still have to save Meng Yi?”

“In this world, only the dead can keep secrets. We definitely can’t let him out.”

A shadow crossed Xiao Junhao’s eyes as he looked directly at Pei Wu, “You go to the prison personally and tell Meng Yi that the Prince Qing Mansion will take care of his family.”

Hearing Xiao Junhao’s words, a complex look appeared in Pei Wu’s eyes, but he still nodded, “1 understand.”

After bowing to Xiao Junhao, Pei Wu went straight to the prison.

Being a guard close to Prince Qing, he entered the prison directly.

“General Meng?”

Inside the prison,

Meng Yi, disheveled, lay on the straw, but he was still conscious. Hearing the voice, he quickly approached the cell door.

Seeing Pei Wu, his eyes lit up, “Guard Pei, did His Highness send you to save me?”

“Go back and tell His Highness that no matter how they interrogate me, I will not betray him.”

“The loyalty of General Meng is well known to His Highness.”

“Then…”

“General Meng, His Highness has a message for you.”

Before Meng Yi could finish speaking, Pei Wu interrupted him in a soft voice.

Hearing Pei Wu’s voice, a complex look crossed Meng Yi’s eyes, but he still whispered, “What is it?”

“His Highness said that he will take good care of your family.”

“What…what did you say?”

Meng Yi looked at Pei Wu, and his expression instantly changed.

Seeming to realize something, he suddenly laughed, “Don’t worry, I understand what His Highness means.”

Pei Wu didn’t say anything more, but saluted Meng Yi.

With a bitter and mocking smile on his face,

Meng Yi watched Pei Wu’s figure disappear around the corner before pulling a dagger from his sleeve.

He aimed the dagger at his own heart and stabbed it directly.

In his daze, Meng Yi seemed to see Jiang Hong.

“Do you regret it?”

When he heard the voice near his ear, Meng Yi realized that he was not dreaming. He turned his head and saw Jiang Hong, whose eyes were filled with complexity.

Jiang Hong had intended to visit Meng Yi, but he did not expect to witness his suicide.

Jiang Hong stepped forward and checked Meng Yi’s wound, then waved to the people behind him.

“Never…expected…to see you…before dying.”

Looking at Jiang Hong standing beside him, Meng Yi spoke mockingly.

“Do you have any last wishes?”

Jiang Hong remained silent until he saw that Meng Yi was barely breathing, then finally spoke.

Upon hearing this, Meng Yi’s eyes opened slightly but quickly dimmed.

He shook his head weakly and whispered, “I’m sorry.”

Meng Yi’s voice was very faint, but it still reached Jiang Hong’s ears.

After saying this, Meng Yi closed his eyes.

A jailer nearby stepped forward, checked, and then said to Jiang Hong, “Great General, this man is dead.”

Jiang Hong glanced at Meng Yi on the ground, and finally looked at the jailer and said, “Report to the Emperor.”

“Yes.”

News of Meng Yi’s suicide in prison spread quickly.

When the news reached Jiang Peihuan’s ears, her eyes flickered.

“Yue Er, come with me to Yanlin.”

“Eldest Miss, are you planning to return the command seal to the First Madam?”

Looking at the commander’s seal on the table, Yue Er asked softly.

Jiang Peihuan didn’t say anything but nodded.

Holding the commander’s seal, Jiang Peihuan took Yue Er and headed straight for Yanlin. But as soon as they arrived at the entrance, they heard the quarreling voices of Jiang Hong and his wife.

“I absolutely disagree with keeping them in the mansion,” a voice insisted fiercely..
