Chapter 400: It’s okay with him, but not with me?
She resisted, resisted with all her heart and soul.
Qin Chengqian could clearly sense it, and his anger grew even stronger. He grabbed her wrist and demanded, "You can be with him in the garden, but not with me?"
Jiang Xiru's mind suddenly buzzed, and she felt extremely humiliated, her eyes red.
"Your Highness, do you still remember the day you sent me to Xie Yongan's residence? I pulled your sleeve and begged you not to leave."
Isn’t this all caused by Qin Chengqian!
Why blame her?
Qin Chengqian was furious when he heard this and slapped her in the face, "Shut up!"
Jiang Xiru suppressed her anger and closed her eyes, tears flowing freely.
Qin Chengqian leaned over and stripped off her clothes, venting his anger. Every movement was very rough, without any regard for her feelings.
Just venting.
……
It was dawn the next day.
Xie Yongan left the palace, saying that he was going back to Dayan.
After he left, Jiang Ningwan felt much more at ease. At least she no longer had to be on guard against that secret technique.
Although Xiangsui is still there, she probably doesn't have that much ability. She can't easily give up the position of noble lady Ni that she worked so hard to obtain.
After lunch, the queen took some medicine and felt better.
The third daughter of the Fan family, Fan Ruoshuang, also arrived at the palace today.
After paying her respects to the Queen, the Queen took her for a walk in the garden.
After being tired from walking, they rested in the pavilion, and Jinkui brought the eldest prince over.
Fan Ruoshuang stood up and saluted, "Grand Prince."
Qin Chengqian nodded slightly and sat down slowly.
The Queen looked at Fan Ruoshuang's words and actions and was very satisfied. This was how a lady from a noble family should behave.
"Cheng Qian, Ruoshuang is the one I've chosen for you as your principal wife. I've asked your father about this, and he agrees."
"Just wait until we get back to Beijing to get married."
Hearing this, Qin Chengqian was slightly startled and turned to look at Fan Ruoshuang.
Fan Ruoshuang lowered her head in shame.
The Queen smiled and said, "Ruoshuang just arrived at the palace today and is not familiar with it yet. Please take care of her for your mother."
Fan Ruoshuang was specially called over because he wanted them to develop a good relationship during their time in the palace.
"Yes." Qin Chengqian agreed, "I respectfully send my mother off."
After the Queen left, Qin Chengqian looked at Fan Ruoshuang and asked, "Shall I take you for a walk?"
"Thank you, Your Highness." Fan Ruoshuang was calm and gentle.
This marriage was arranged by my father, and the queen specially sent someone to propose marriage. The whole family had no reason to refuse.
Although she was caught off guard, she had no choice but to say yes or no as it was her parents' order and the matchmaker's words.
Since I am going to get married, I should know the eldest prince's preferences in advance to avoid being caught making mistakes in the future.
Qin Chengqian took Fan Ruoshuang walking around in the palace, and many people saw them.
And Jiang Xiru also saw it.
After seeing him, I subconsciously turned around to hide.
But Qin Chengqian stopped him: "Stop! Why are you running?"
Jiang Xiru turned around and stepped forward to salute, "I didn't realize it was Your Highness."
Qin Chengqian looked at her cold attitude and felt inexplicably angry. He inexplicably thought of her and Xie Yongan lying in bed and laughing.
"This is the third daughter of the Fan family, Fan Ruoshuang. She will be the principal consort in the future. Although they haven't married yet, since we live together in the palace, you should get acquainted with each other in advance. You must be polite when you meet her, understand?"
Qin Chengqian gave the order in a cold tone.
Hearing this, Fan Ruoshuang was slightly startled and quickly said, "Your Highness, we haven't gotten married yet, so there's no need to do this."
"That's not quite right."
But Qin Chengqian was firm, "What I said is the rules!"
Then he looked at Jiang Xiru and asked, "Did you hear that?"
Jiang Xiru suppressed all his dissatisfaction and nodded calmly, "I understand."
Then she bowed to Fan Ruoshuang and said, "Xiru greets sister."
Fan Ruoshuang was startled and quickly reached out to support him and returned the greeting.
"I haven't married yet, so I should be the one to pay my respects to Xiru."
Qin Chengqian glanced at Jiang Xiru coldly and said, "This is what she should do!"
After that, he instructed Jiang Xiru: "Ruoshuang has just arrived at the palace and has no one to take care of her. You will stay in her courtyard for the time being and serve her personally."
"do you understand?"
"After you get married, you will have to serve the principal wife in this way anyway. Get used to it in advance so that you don't make mistakes when you return and forget your status."
Every word Qin Chengqian spoke was filled with anger.
Fan Ruoshuang was terrified when she heard this, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Jiang Xiru didn't dare to say anything, and could only lower her head and agree: "Yes."
But even though Jiang Xiru was so compromising, Qin Chengqian still felt unsatisfied.
But he couldn't find any other way to vent his anger, so he could only leave in anger.
"Farewell, Your Highness." Jiang Xiru bowed respectfully.
After Qin Chengqian left, Fan Ruoshuang hurriedly helped Jiang Xiru up and said, "According to our age and the order in which we married, I should also call you sister."
"You don't have to take what Your Highness says seriously. We are sisters from now on, so there is no need to be so formal. I can take care of myself and don't need anyone to wait on me."
Fan Ruoshuang tried her best to make Jiang Xiru feel her kindness.
Jiang Xiru just nodded.
That day, Fan Ruoshuang stayed in the palace, and Jiang Xiru also stayed in the room next to her.
Jiang Xiru did as Qin Chengqian instructed, but Fan Ruoshuang didn't let her do any work. She made the bed, folded the quilt, made tea and served snacks to Jiang Xiru.
"Sister Xiru, this is what my mother made before we came here. Try it."
Jiang Xiru was a little wary, afraid of being tricked, and didn't dare to eat.
"No need, you can leave these to His Highness."
Fan Ruoshuang smiled and said, "Your Highness, I've kept some. It's okay. You can try it."
But Jiang Xiru just shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry."
Fan Ruoshuang saw her defensiveness and did not force her.
The two had dinner together at night.
Just after dinner, Qin Chengqian arrived.
Seeing the food on the table that had not been cleared away and there were two sets of bowls and chopsticks, Qin Chengqian immediately felt dissatisfied and looked at Jiang Xiru.
"I asked you to stay here so that you could serve Ruoshuang, and you dare to eat at the table?"
"Are there any more rules?"
To put it nicely, she was a concubine, but in fact she was just a concubine, and she had no right to dine at the table with the main wife.
Jiang Xiru was about to explain when Fan Ruoshuang stepped forward and bowed, explaining, "Your Highness, I insisted on having her accompany me for dinner. I'm not used to eating alone."
Hearing this, Qin Chengqian didn't say anything more.
He glanced around the room and asked, "Are you comfortable in this room? How is Jiang Xiru serving you?"
Fan Ruoshuang smiled and said, "Xiru is very good. She made the bed."
"That's good." Qin Chengqian couldn't find any fault with it. He glanced at Jiang Xiru with a sharp gaze, "I have something to ask you. Come with me."
Jiang Xiru lowered her head and followed silently. She thought they were going outside to have a private talk, but unexpectedly they were returning to Qin Chengqian's room.
As soon as the door was closed, Qin Chengqian went crazy, holding the back of her head and kissing her hard.
Jiang Xiru clenched her palms tightly, not pushing away, but resisting with all her heart and soul.
She resisted Qin Chengqian's touch and his breath, but she couldn't refuse and could only endure it.
She thought, just wait until Qin Chengqian calmed down.
Otherwise, how would she survive the next year?
However, the more she did this, the angrier Qin Chengqian became.
With a ripping sound, her clothes were torn apart with great force, and a strong hand pushed over her shoulders and pressed her onto the table.
An angry voice came from behind: "Weren't you happy when you were with Xie Yongan? Why do you have such a deadpan face when you're with me?"
