She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

Given Jinrong’s status and that of Duke An, naturally, they would not escort Xing Bin and the others out. Xing Bin and his group also did not have the audacity to ask the two to stand up and see them off.

The group repeatedly bowed and politely excused themselves from Duke An’s reception hall. Once they stood in the courtyard, they felt as if they had been granted amnesty, and almost flew on the heels of Lian Gui out of Duke An’s Mansion’s gates, boarding their carriages and leaving.

Well, what situation is this? The Ye Family’s granddaughter had caused such a scandal two years ago, and then she fled to escape the consequences. Only two years had passed, and the aftereffects of that incident were still warm, yet Miss Ye not only returned but did so with such strength.

Today’s incident was not caused by her directly, but merely being associated with her made it so troublesome. It seems that one’s fate really follows who they are, whether willing or not, one must accept their lot in life, especially when someone has a grandfather with such a distinguished military record.

It’s better to head back quickly and report this matter to the family elders. It seems that one must be more cautious in their actions in the future, not to merely consider power and face. Associating with a prince with real power certainly brings prestige, but life is not necessarily easy, and a slight misstep can lead to big trouble.

Ji Chengxian sat in the carriage, deeply regretting his visit. Knowing that Guangwen was beaten by a rural child living in Duke An’s Mansion, his whole family was furious. The Ji Family had a bona fide marriage connection with Duke An’s Mansion. After the incident, Duke An’s Mansion didn’t show any concern—not even sending someone to give notice, which would have been something, but there was nothing.

The disgraceful granddaughter of Duke An’s Mansion was given such attention, yet his youngest brother, who married the concubine-born daughter of that household, deserved to be slighted? Were even the Ji Family’s descendants considered inferior to the rural lad brought back by Ye Xinyan?

Driven by the family’s indignation, he had made this trip. Who would have thought that those two lads would be favored by His Highness Prince Yu, resulting in the current debacle?
