“Since that’s the case, let’s sign a contract.”

Upon hearing Zhao Yong’s words, Jiang Peihuan immediately nodded.

Moments later, the servants in the house prepared the paper, and Jiang Peihuan, holding a pen in one hand, quickly drafted the contract on it.

Jiang Peihuan handed the written note to Zhao Yong and said lightly,” If you think there’s no problem, write your name on it.”

Zhao Yong did not even look at it and directly signed his name.

Seeing his actions, a bit of surprise appeared in the eyes of Jiang Peihuan, but she did not say anything.

“Prepare a room.”

Shortly, the three of them entered a room.

Jiang Peihuan lit an alcohol lamp, then readied a dagger and bandages. After making these preparations, she looked at Zhao Yong, who was sitting across from her, “Remove your top and lie down.”

Zhao Yong did as instructed.

Looking at the man lying on the bed, Jiang Peihuan turned to Xiao Nanye, who was seated nearby. “Xiao Nanye, help hold down his shoulders.”

Observing Zhao Yong on the bed, a rare look of admiration appeared in Xiao Nanye’s eyes.

Xiao Nanye reached out and directly pressed on Zhao Yong’s acupoint.

Jiang Peihuan was momentarily stunned but realized this method was more effective than merely holding down Zhao Yong’s shoulders.

“I’m going to begin.” 142.93.60.102

Jiang Peihuan addressed the man on the bed, “If you have regrets, now’s the time. If you change your mind later, it’ll be too late.”

“Just do it.”

Hearing this, Jiang Peihuan did not say anything else and directly stabbed Zhao Yong’s abdomen with the dagger.

Blood gushed out immediately, staining Jiang Peihuan’s hands red. Yet, she continued her task as if she didn’t notice.

Zhao Yong’s body was immobilized, but cold sweat formed on his forehead. His face turned pale in an instant, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Half an hour later, Jiang Peihuan finished suturing Zhao Yong’s wound.

After that, she washed the blood off her hands.

Just as she raised her hand, Xiao Nanye grabbed her hand. The man held Jiang Peihuan’s wrist in one hand and a handkerchief in the other.

He carefully wiped the water off Jiang Peihuan’s hands.

Xiao Nanye didn’t speak but merely nodded.

Then, Xiao Nanye disembarked from the carriage.

Holding onto Xiao Nanye’s hand, she stepped down.

Upon entering the general’s residence, Jiang Peihuan saw Deputy General Liu at the entrance. He quickly approached, “Your Highness, Miss Jiang?”

“Deputy General Liu, why are you here? What happened?”

“Miss, there’s been an incident at madam’s courtyard.

Jiang Peihuan nodded. However, she turned to look at Xiao Nanye.

” His Highness is not an outsider, pleases request him to join.”

“Then let’s go to my mother’s courtyard.”

“Alright.”

Xiao Nanye and Jiang Peihuan headed towards Yanlin. Jiang Peihuan heard shouting from inside. It was the voice of the Old Madam Xue.

A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Peihuan’s eyes.

They quickly speed up to enter together.

“grandmother, mother, aunt.”

Besides Xue Yan and Old Madam Xue, Wang Fengyi and Xu Yunniang were seated.

Seeing Xiao Nanye following Jiang Peihuan, several instinctively started to bow, but Xiao Nanye was quick to assist the Old Madam Xue, “Old Madam, please, there’s no need for such formalities. We’re all family here.”

“Huan Er, you and His Highness please take a seat.”

“Yes.”

With Xue Yan’s command, Jiang Peihuan and Xiao Nanye seats nearby of her.

At this moment, Jiang Peihuan noticed that Xue Ru was kneeling on the ground.

Upon closer observation, Jiang Peihuan realized that Xue Ru was adorned with silk and jewelry. While the Xue family had such items, these particular styles were all the rage in the capital.

“Grandmother, if Huan Er can marry to King Cheng, why can’t I marry Prince Qing?”

“Huan Er’s marriage to King Cheng was an official and honorable one. She is the primary wife of King Cheng. What are you? Not to mention that the Emperor has already bestowed a main wife and side consort to Prince Qing. Even if you were to marry him, you’d be nothing more than a concubine.”

“What’s this about being a concubine? A royal concubine still holds a higher status than an ordinary citizen’s primary wife. Moreover, Prince Qing truly cherishes me.”

More importantly, she and Prince Qing had already consummated their relationship. Apart from Prince Qing, she could not marry any other man.

“Silence!”
