Chapter 106 Are You Really Willing to Watch Someone Die without Helping?

What Yan Li didn't expect was that Jiang Jingyue knelt down with a thump as soon as she finished saying this.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Cousin Li." Jiang Jingyue hung her head, her face as pale as paper, "I beg you, the Jiang family treated you badly in the past, but your grandfather and father are your relatives after all, and I beg you to consider...consider your aunt's surname Jiang, put aside the past and consider the overall situation..."

Consider the overall situation?

Yan Li took a bite of the steamed dumpling without saying a word, chewing it elegantly, tasting the craftsmanship of the small kitchen, and after swallowing the food in her mouth, she smiled meaningfully: "Cousin, for the position of Crown Princess, you are really flexible."

Jiang Jingyue has been visibly tortured these days, and I don't know if she has lost her temper or her temper has been completely hidden.

Hearing Yan Li's ridicule, he didn't seem angry, and only said humbly: "As long as my cousin is willing to plead for the Queen and the Seventh Princess, I am willing to do anything for you."

Yan Li sneered: "Whatever you want?"

"Yes."

"Unfortunately, there is nothing I need you to do." Yan Li ruthlessly rejected her request, "You don't have to beg me humbly. With the current emperor's temper, even if the Queen is restored this time, no one dares to guarantee how long the position of the Crown Prince can last. It is only a matter of time before the Crown Prince is deposed."

Jiang Jingyue's expression suddenly changed: "Impossible."

"Why is it impossible?" Yan Li raised his eyebrows, "Do you really think that the status of the Queen and her son is as solid as a rock? Although the legitimate son has the most legitimate right of inheritance, once he loses the emperor's heart, it is just a matter of a word from the Emperor to depose the Queen and the Crown Prince?"

Jiang Jingyue clutched her clothes tightly. Although she refuted Yan Li and was unwilling to admit the facts she said, she knew in her heart that Yan Li was right.

Once the queen loses the emperor's favor, it will be difficult for her to be restored to the throne after being deposed. If she fails to be restored to the throne, Mu Xiuhan will no longer be the queen's legitimate son. In the future, if the emperor wants to depose the crown prince and establish another one, the ministers will not even have an excuse to dissuade him.

Besides, which minister in the court is not a shrewd person? Seeing that the queen has lost power, they will definitely have some calculations in their minds, and they may have started to plan to support other princes early.

This is also the reason why Jiang Jingyue is anxious. She has finally obtained the position of the crown princess, and she has suffered a lot for this position. Naturally, she is unwilling to lose it.

If the crown prince is deposed, she, the crown princess, is no longer the crown princess, then what is the point of her marrying Mu Xiuhan?

Once she loses the position of the crown prince, Mu Xiuhan's status and position will be far lower than that of the Ninth Prince. She will still be suppressed by Yan Li in this life, and even... What if the new emperor who ascends the throne in the future is a person who cannot tolerate others, then it is unknown whether Mu Xiuhan, who has been the crown prince, can still live well.

When Jiang Jingyue thought of this, she felt that being humble for a while was nothing. As long as there is a chance to turn things around in the future, the humiliation suffered today will be doubled in the future.

Unfortunately, no matter how beautiful her wishful thinking is, Yan Li is not a fool who allows others to calculate.

"You go back." Yan Li said in a light tone, "I don't like to provoke others, but if others provoke me, I am not so magnanimous that I have to beg for them like a bodhisattva."

Jiang Jingyue bit her lips lightly, her eyes misted, and her voice choked: "But... only my cousin can help the prince now..."

"You are the princess, aren't you?" Yan Li looked up at her, his eyes were a little cold, completely ignoring her pitiful posture, "The fate of the prince is involved with you. If you want to beg for mercy and help the queen, you can only find a way yourself."

Jiang Jingyue clenched her hands, her eyes were red, but she unconsciously gave birth to hatred in her heart.

She was so humble that she even gave up her self-esteem and knelt down to beg her, but she was indifferent...

"Jiang Jingyue, I am not jealous of you becoming the crown princess, nor do I envy you being liked by the crown prince, so please don't use the rise and fall of the family to pressure me." Yan Li finished the last bite of bird's nest and put down the spoon. "The rise and fall of the Jiang family is not something that a little girl like me can decide. On the contrary, you are now the key to the rise and fall of the entire family. The more difficult the time, the more precious the true love of mutual support."

With a faint smile, Yan Li continued: "As long as you can successfully help the crown prince through this difficult time, Mu Xiuhan will cherish you in the future, and the queen will look at you differently."

Jiang Jingyue stared at the floor tiles under her feet in a daze, and said with difficulty: "So...you really don't save her?"

Yan Li smiled slightly and looked at her expressionlessly.

She really wanted to know if Jiang Jingyue didn't understand what people said. She had said it so clearly, but she still stubbornly wanted to put the responsibility on her?

After a moment of silence, Yan Li nodded slowly and told her the answer clearly: "I don't have the ability to save people."

After the voice fell, Jiang Jingyue clenched the clothes in her hands tightly and did not respond for a long time.

Yan Li ignored her and got up and sat down in front of the window, flipping through a book in her hand.

She thought Jiang Jingyue would leave soon.

After all, Nanny Yan rarely had a day off, and she finally got a break from the hardships she had suffered these days. Jiang Jingyue should use today's free time to have a good sleep, eat something good to replenish her body, and make up for the lost spirit. ŴŴŴ.

Even if it's better than nothing, you shouldn't waste time here.

However, she underestimated the importance of the identity of the Crown Princess to Jiang Jingyue. In order to prevent the Crown Prince from being abolished and to successfully become the mother of a country in the future, Jiang Jingyue could kneel here for a long time after suffering more than ten days of torture day and night.

Such resilience did surprise Yan Li.

But being surprised did not mean she would be moved. Yan Li raised her head and looked at Jiang Jingyue: "If you had been like this before, at least your grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, and even your three brothers would have stood up for you and put some unfounded charges on me. Mu Xiuhan could also stand up for you and teach me, the ungrateful orphan of the Jiang family, a lesson. But now this trick is useless."

Jiang Jingyue was shocked.

"You can keep kneeling down until your legs are broken, and see if anyone in the Jiang family can stand up for you, and see if the prince can come to support you." Yan Li's mouth flashed a mocking arc, "Or do you think you have to continue to drag them down and pay a greater price?"

Jiang Jingyue's face turned pale, and she already understood what she meant.

This trick did work in the past. If she showed weakness pitifully, her father, mother, and brother who held her in their hands would support her regardless of right or wrong, and the prince would also stand up for her.

But now, the prince can't protect himself.

The three brothers have paid some price, even if they continue to support Jiang Jingyue, they will not pose any threat to Yan Li, and they may even pay a greater price.

Realizing this, Jiang Jingyue completely understood her situation, stood up stiffly, turned around and left without even looking at Yan Li.
