Half in the river wind, half in the clouds

Chapter 152: Chase whoever comes

Li Longye and Jiang Feng chatted and laughed all the way until they arrived at the palace banquet.

Li Dan's banquet this time was a purely family banquet.

The so-called pure family banquet was attended only by Li Dan and his concubines, five princes, four princesses and their families.

Even Princess Taiping was not among them.

No matter how Jiang Feng calculated, it didn't fit in.

She sat next to Concubine Xian, quietly acting like a transparent person.

Royal banquets are not always restrictive.

The Crown Prince and several princes have gathered together, chatting about the past.

When they recall those thrilling years when they are full of ambition and pride, they don't seem to have difficulty at all.

It only highlights today’s greater glory.

The host of Ji'an County opened the wine cup and came to Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng's feelings towards her were complicated. He had envied her and hated her.

Now, I just think that she is a pitiful person.

This "poor man" doesn't feel sorry for himself at all.

She is proud. Of course, she has reason to be proud.

She was of noble status, beautiful, and well-educated. Among all the women in Chang'an City, there were those who were more noble than her, but they were definitely not as pretty as her. There were those who were prettier than her, but they were definitely not as noble as her.

Prince Ning Li Chengqi was extremely fertile. His wives and concubines gave birth to more than a dozen sons for him, but he only had this one daughter, who was spoiled since childhood.

However, Jian was not raised to be arrogant and domineering like other princesses and county ladies. Instead, she was well-educated, beautiful and intelligent, and a role model for women.

She had a smooth journey and was invincible until she was defeated by Jiang Feng.

The voice of the Princess of Ji'an was very light and soft, but very recognizable. Not only Jiang Feng could hear every word clearly, but even Wei Huazhuang, who was chatting with Concubine Xian nearby, heard every word.

The Princess of Ji'an said sincerely: "Congratulations, you have achieved what you wished for."

Jiang Feng's heart was filled with alarm. She didn't care what Ji An wanted to say, she just changed the subject and said with a smile: "My Lady County Master, you are joking. Are you feeling better now?"

Ji An's complexion was rosy and she looked pretty and lovely. I guess she had recovered and got over the pain of the miscarriage.

But when Ji An heard this, she felt that Jiang Feng was deliberately touching her sore spot.

She said with a little pride: "I was also bothered at first. But Yiye persuaded me that we are still young and we should take good care of ourselves. We can have children again."

Ji An is very good at understanding Jiang Feng's psychology.

Her heart stagnated, and she blurted out, "Then I wish you all get what you want!"

Well, after going around in circles, I was finally brought back.

Ji An smiled and said, "Having children depends on fate. I'm not like Afeng, who can get everything I want. I remember that on the Lantern Festival this year, Afeng said that if you marry your fifth uncle, it will be a piece of cake, without any trouble. Now it seems that it's true!"

Princess Xue immediately glanced over.

Jiang Feng felt ridiculous for describing the Princess of Ji'an as a pitiful person.

This gentle sword, this fighting power, she felt ashamed of herself.

Although Jiang Feng saw through Ji An's tricks, she felt that it was better to resolve a feud than to create one, and she hoped that everyone would let go of their grudges and live their own lives well.

Jiang Feng pretended to be sad and said, "My Lady, if you live in different places, after you and Master Shen get married, you will have to live in Chang'an and Luoyang separately, and you can only see each other once a year. Do you think you can live like this?"

The Princess of Ji'an was speechless.

Jiang Feng continued, "I know there are many rumors about the prince and me. They all think that I have deceived the prince! But in this world, things are not judged by words, but by actions."

Jiang Feng pretended to be sad and continued to play pitiful: "No matter how much the prince loves me, this is all he can give me. It is impossible to have one more. Is this what the county lady meant by getting what she wanted?"

The Princess of Ji'an refused to accept this and said, "But I heard that it was you who took the initiative to live in Luoyang."

Li Chengqi knew about it, so he naturally couldn't hide it from his daughter.

Jiang Feng also thought of this and was prepared, saying, "Because I have no choice. If I take the initiative to choose, maybe I will feel more comfortable than if someone else gives it to me."

The Princess of Ji'an remained silent.

Jiang Feng knew that all her hostility was because of Shen Guxing.

She had married such a good man, so naturally she couldn't tolerate his mind on other women.

In order to dispel her suspicions, make his life easier, and not put Shen Guxing in a dilemma, Jiang Feng took a step closer and whispered, "I know that the county lady is still brooding over Mr. Shen's past. The county lady is a wise person. The past cannot be changed, but the future can be pursued. The past has already happened, and thinking too much will only add to the trouble. But Mr. Shen's future is real and is firmly tied to you."

Jian was startled, as if he was enlightened.

But I was worried: If I forget the past, can I focus on the future? How will the karma be repaid?

Seeing Jiang Feng's act of pity, Ji An tried to dispel Wei Huazhuang's hostility and stopped dwelling on the issue.

She thought for a moment and then said, "You and I are destined to be together. We look alike, and it's not a big deal. We were both raised by Princess Taiping for a period of time."

Jiang Feng didn't know why she mentioned Princess Taiping again, so he said, "How can Jiang Feng compare to the friendship between you and the queen?"

The Princess of Ji'an said, "Although my great-aunt has raised me for many years, I cannot agree with her behavior!"

Jiang Feng was surprised. She saw how much Princess Taiping favored Princess Ji'an.

Although she had thought about making Jiang Feng Shen Guxing's co-wife, after Ji An's miscarriage, she immediately told Jiang Feng clearly that the idea of ​​making him Shen Guxing's co-wife was over.

Seeing that Ji'an had some complaints about Princess Taiping and was even disrespectful, Jiang Feng did not say anything. He just wanted to hear how Ji'an disagreed.

Ji Anman said logically, "No younger generation should talk about their parents. But my great aunt was favored by Empress Wu Zetian, so she acted recklessly and had bad morals... Today, she has even begun to interfere in state affairs and is at odds with my third uncle. She told everyone that my third uncle could not be the crown prince because he was not the eldest son. Your Majesty was angry with her because of this. Although he revoked the order for my great aunt to move to Luoyang, he still distanced himself from her and did not even invite her to a family dinner like this."

What a wolf cub that can never be tamed!

Jiang Feng was shaking all over, emotionally agitated, not caring about Ji An's identity, and retorted: "Since the county lady knows that you shouldn't criticize your parents, you should be careful with your words! You have been with the queen for more than ten years, and you have a deep affection for her, and you have received a lot of favors from her! It's really wrong to belittle her like this now!"

Ji An didn't expect her to turn her face away directly. She paused for a moment, then asked, "Don't you think that it's right for my great-aunt to be on equal terms with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

Jiang Feng said: "I have no right to comment on right or wrong. But there must be a reason for the situation today."

Ji'an lured the enemy deeper step by step, but Jiang Feng was unaware of it.
