Chapter 107 It's Your Own Fault

Finally, no one disturbed her peace.

Yan Li stared at the book in her hand, thinking that living in the Jiang family was not a long-term solution. Even though she had complete freedom in Liuliyuan, the Jiang family could still disturb her from time to time and ask her to do something she could never agree to.

Yan Li felt unhappy and got up to go to the compartment.

A piece of rice paper was spread on the desk, and water was added to grind ink. Yan Li took a brush from the pen holder, dipped it in ink, took a horse stance, squatted in a standard posture, and began to practice calligraphy.

Cultivate your body and mind, and put aside your restlessness.

Time passed little by little.

"Princess." Near noon, Qinglian came in with a note, "The girl of the Ling family invites you to go shopping together. I wonder if the princess is free?"

Yan Li glanced at the note: "Ling Ning, the daughter of the Ling family?"

"Yes."

Yan Li thought of the woman he met in Prince Yu's Mansion last time, and nodded slowly: "I'm free."

"Yes."

Qinglian then went out to reply to the person who sent the note.

Yan Li doesn't like dealing with people with bad intentions, and although Ling Ning doesn't have much contact with her, she can be seen as an upright girl, not so scheming, and willing to fight for justice when encountering something she doesn't like.

Getting along with such a woman will make people feel relaxed and happy.

After lunch, Yan Li changed her clothes and went out. When she was about to walk out of the door, she met Jiang Tingyi who came back from outside. The other party looked gloomy and looked anxious. I don't know where he was frustrated. Tianlai Novel Network

When he saw Yan Li, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of anger flashed across his eyes: "The Jiang family has fallen into this situation at this time, are you happy?"

Yan Li originally wanted to pretend that she didn't see him, but when she was about to step out of the door, she heard his words, and couldn't help but stop and look at him: "Did you take the wrong medicine again?"

Jiang Tingyi's face became particularly ugly when he heard this.

"The Jiang family is in such a predicament because of your own fault. What does it have to do with me?" Yan Li sneered, "If you are incompetent, you should reflect on yourself. Don't complain all day and put the blame on others. This will only make people look down on you."

After a pause, "Especially as the eldest grandson of the family, you actually put the responsibility for the rise and fall of the family on an orphan girl. Don't you feel ashamed?"

After saying this, Yan Li stepped out of the door, not caring about Jiang Tingyi's reaction after hearing this.

Jiang Tingyi's face turned pale and he was blocked by her and couldn't say a word.

Turning his head to look at Yan Li's back, his expression was cold and stiff. Although he didn't like her, he had to admit that she was right in his heart.

He was the eldest grandson of the Jiang family. It can't be said that Yan Li had nothing to do with the Jiang family's current situation, but Yan Li did not take the initiative to provoke anyone.

The marriage was canceled by the prince, and the so-called Yan Li's indecent behavior was also a crime that the prince forced on her.

Jiang Jingyue got the position of Crown Princess, seemingly winning by doing nothing, but the emperor favored Yan Li, which directly led to the Crown Prince and Jingyue suffering in the palace for more than ten days. So far, they have not even received the wedding ceremony, and have become an embarrassing Crown Princess without a name or status.

The Seventh Princess came to the mansion and was rude to Yan Li. Not only did the Jiang family not stop her, but they also looked at her jokes with a gloating attitude, expecting her to suffer in front of the Seventh Princess and the Queen.

But in the end, the Queen was deposed and the Crown Prince was confined.

Jiang Tingyi turned around and entered the mansion, his steps were slow and sluggish, and he was exhausted physically and mentally.

He was not unaware of his father and mother's attitude towards Yan Li, but he never paid attention to it. Now the situation of the Crown Prince and the Jiang family is getting worse and worse. What position does he have to accuse Yan Li of being indifferent to the situation of the Jiang family?

Ask him if he regrets it now?

Jiang Tingyi actually regrets it, but he knows in his heart that if time goes back and everything starts over again, they will still not change their attitude towards Yan Li.

Jiang Tingyi arrived at Songheyuan and learned from the servants that his grandfather was in the study, so he turned around and went straight to his grandfather's study.

At this time, Jiang Taifu stood in front of the bookshelf, with his hands behind his back, staring at the row of books on the bookshelf as if in a daze. His always calm and elegant figure seemed to have a bit more of an old and hunched appearance.

When Jiang Tingyi knocked on the door and came in, he came back to his senses and turned his head to look at this eldest grandson who once made him proud.

"Grandfather." Jiang Tingyi bowed respectfully to him, and then said, "Prince Jing wants to marry the daughter of the Duke of Huguo's mansion."

Teacher Jiang's expression changed slightly, and he frowned subconsciously: "Where did you hear this news?"

"Someone outside has already started discussing it." Jiang Tingyi frowned, his expression was not very good, "I heard that Prince Jing went to the Duke of Huguo's mansion."

Teacher Jiang's expression changed, but he did not speak for a while, and said after a long time: "The emperor should not agree."

"If the emperor does not agree, Prince Jing will not blatantly go to the Duke of Huguo's mansion to propose marriage." Jiang Tingyi shook his head, "I think His Royal Highness Prince Jing has mentioned this matter to the emperor, and has obtained the emperor's tacit consent."

This is not a good news.

Teacher Jiang's expression was slightly gloomy, and he paced in the study without saying a word, his brows were furrowed, and his face was visibly more solemn.

"Grandfather, I'm afraid that the Crown Prince..." Jiang Tingyi gritted his teeth, as if he had finally made a decision after struggling, "Does Jingyue and the Crown Prince want to continue their marriage?"

Teacher Jiang heard what he meant, paused, slowly turned his head to look at him, his eyes darkened: "Do you want to cancel Jingyue and the Crown Prince's engagement?"

Jiang Tingyi looked anxious: "Today I learned some things outside, the Crown Prince's situation is not good, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to turn things around."

He also knew that breaking off the engagement was not a wise decision, but...

"Don't say that the prince has not been deposed, even if he has been demoted to a commoner, this marriage cannot be cancelled." Jiang Taifu said coldly, "Do you think royal marriages are child's play? The marriage granted by the emperor allows you to do whatever you want. How about that?”

The prince canceled Yan Li's marriage. Although the emperor was angry, he would not do anything to him. At most, he would give him a punishment because he was his son. But if the Jiang family canceled the prince's marriage, the nature would be completely different.

If the king wants his minister to die, he must die.

What is the difference between daring to cancel the marriage granted by the emperor and resisting the decree?

Jiang Tingyi's expression froze: "If the prince is really deposed -"

"I accept it even if I am deposed." Taifu Jiang interrupted him, his tone a little more stern, "Don't even think about breaking off the engagement!"

Jiang Tingyi pursed his lips, his face full of worry.

Taifu Jiang was silent for a moment and sighed deeply: "I will contact some ministers in the court to see if I can save the prince. Please don't act rashly for the time being."

"Yes." Jiang Tingyi nodded, feeling confused and not knowing what to do.

Ever since Yan Li's engagement was broken off by the prince, the Jiang family has never stopped. Whether it is the queen, mother and son in the palace, or the Jiang family outside the palace, their status in front of the emperor is getting worse day by day, until it has fallen to the current situation.

The speed is so fast that people don’t even have time to respond.
