Chapter 226 - 139: To Seek and Not Get, To Get and Not Want
Due to some considerations, Jiang Shouzhong had not informed Ran Qingchen about Yelü Miaomiao, and when he came to this small courtyard, Jiang Shouzhong had warned Xia He and the others to keep Yelü Miaomiao’s identity a secret.
So even though Jinxiu knew there was a woman in the house, he didn’t know her specific identity.
It wasn’t that Jiang Shouzhong didn’t trust Ran Qingchen, but after all, she was a court official, and now her husband was planning to send the enemy country’s princess back, which would undoubtedly be difficult for her.
Not knowing was actually better.
On the contrary, Jiang Shouzhong did not hide it from Jiang Yi.
Firstly, Xia He and Qiuye were utterly loyal to Jiang Yi and would have spoken sooner or later. Secondly, it was necessary to get Jiang Yi to arrange a pass and a false identity; otherwise, it wouldn’t be easy to get Miaomiao out of Dazhou.
Furthermore, Jiang Shouzhong also found a suitable disguise for Yelü Miaomiao through Jiang Yi to avoid trouble.
What surprised Jiang Shouzhong was that before leaving, Ran Qingchen had a secretive talk with Jiang Yi, and he didn’t know what Jiang Yi had said. Ran Qingchen first showed an annoyed expression, argued for a few sentences. Then Ran Qingchen seemed contemplative, and surprisingly, she took Jinxiu away when she left.
This made Jinxiu, who was wholeheartedly hoping to become a concubine, very sad, looking back three steps at a time as she left.
Er Liang was also tearful looking at her.
