Chapter 129: Prince Song's greed is still alive
Although she knew that her brother's official rank was nothing in the huge city of Xijing.

But when you really see this scene, you will understand what royal relatives, powerful ministers and princes are. They are really far from people like them who have climbed up on their own.

If it weren't for the support of my eldest sister-in-law's family, the Wenyuan Marquis Mansion, I'm afraid that their Jiang family would not have the opportunity to see such a market. Thinking of this, I feel that I must have a better relationship with my nephews and nieces in the future, so that I can live a peaceful and stable life.

Today, the Empress Dowager’s birthday celebration is being held in Wanxi Tower.

Dasui has always admired gold, so many places here are painted with gold and colors. It is extremely luxurious, but it does not make people feel vulgar, but rather grand and vigorous.

Perhaps it is the addition of mountains, rivers and rocks that makes it more beautiful.

There are three pavilions arranged in a way that each one is better than the other. Therefore, when everyone reaches the top floor, the scenery of the entire Xijing City is in front of them. The splendor makes people feel envious, and at the same time, it also makes people understand what it means to be majestic and look down on all the other mountains.

Jiang Shiyuan had been to this place several times, so he was familiar with it.

With her leading the way, everyone did not encounter any trouble. Not long after entering, they saw everyone from Marquis Wenyuan's Mansion. They all came today. Old Madam Wang, Marquis Wenyuan and his wife, and eldest cousin Wang Su were all standing there.

As soon as he saw the Jiang family coming, he sent someone to invite them.

"I meet my mother-in-law, my uncle, and my sister-in-law."

Jiang Huaishan stepped forward, saluted and spoke, and his aunt Jiang Huaiyi and her family, who followed behind him, also saluted.

"I have met the old lady, Marquis Wenyuan, and the Marquis's wife."

"We are all family, so we don't need to follow these formalities. I've heard Ah Nian talk about the He family. It's a blessing for you to have the opportunity to enter the palace today."

"Thank you for the compliment, old lady."

He Dafu had to be more calm in such occasions, so he stepped forward and replied to Old Lady Wang and the others with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant. Seeing him like this, he seemed to be less scheming than many businessmen.

Everyone in the Wenyuan Marquis's mansion was satisfied, especially the Marquis's wife, Mrs. Pei.

She had a task her daughter-in-law had specifically asked her to do today, so after glancing at He Yuankang, she stared at him for a while. Perhaps he knew that he had to put on a good show before he could see anyone today, so he dressed himself up neatly before going out.

At this moment, I am not afraid of being seen by others.

Pei had already had some good feelings towards their family from what Jiang Shiyuan had said, and now she felt good about them after meeting them. After looking at Jiang Shiyuan, she nodded slightly.

Jiang Shiyuan was delighted. It seemed that his aunt would not be able to leave in the short term. He did not expect that his cousin Yuankang was so lucky that he had somehow secured such a good marriage. One could not help but admire his luck, which was so incredibly good.

However, given the circumstances, many things cannot be said face to face.

Therefore, the two of them just looked at each other and smiled, and nothing else happened. Soon, the Wanxi Building was crowded with people, and almost everyone who was supposed to arrive had arrived.

The same was true for Prince Chun's mansion, except that the Prince Chun and his wife and the Crown Prince Song came today, and the Crown Prince's concubine Zhao Yuyan, who was in the limelight, was by his side. Perhaps because she lived a comfortable life as a wife, she looked even more charming than when she was a girl, and her whole person was like a pool of water, making people feel pity and love.

They saw everyone in the Jiang family, and naturally everyone in the Jiang family saw them as well.

It's just that there are so many things between the two families, so even the greetings at this moment seemed particularly stiff, and they simply turned their heads away and didn't say anything. Such behavior made people who were interested know that there might be a rift in the marriage between the two families.

Therefore, everyone is waiting to see the good show.

Prince Song didn't care what other people thought. Since he entered Wanxi Tower, his eyes had been scanning everywhere. When he saw Jiang Shiyuan, he felt as if he had been nourished and relaxed a lot.

These days, he stayed in Zhao Yuyan's room day and night. Every time they had sex, all he could think of was Jiang Shiyuan's face. No matter how tactful and accommodating Zhao Yuyan was, he seemed not to be interested. The only thing was that when he imagined it was her, he became extra courageous.

Zhao Yuyan had no idea what Prince Song was thinking. She thought she had an amazing husband, so she was extremely proud. But when she saw her husband's eyes looking at the Jiang family, she thought he owed the Jiang family something.

After thinking about it, he stepped forward and said it generously.

"Prince, the Jiang family is the Crown Princess's family after all. Since you've seen them, you should say hello. What do you think?"

These words were exactly what Prince Song wanted. When he heard them, he immediately nodded and replied.

"What Concubine said is true. The Jiang family is a prominent family in the court after all. It's not good to completely cut off ties with them. You stay here with mother. I'll be back soon."

"Yes."

He walked away in a hurry, but Princess Chun who was standing behind him did not seem to agree.

"Why should we let him go? You know the situation of the Jiang family!"

"Don't worry, mother-in-law. Even if the prince goes to say a few words to the Jiang family, it won't cause any big waves. The prince's wife is now helpless. If we beat him too hard, it will inevitably make the prince feel disheartened. So, we should relax a little to show our magnanimity."

After hearing what Zhao Yuyan had planned, Princess Chun felt relieved yet conflicted.

Shu Chang was naturally happy because he had finally found a smart and useful daughter-in-law. As long as she was pregnant, the position of the Crown Prince's Consort would be hers next year, and he would be able to live a comfortable life for a few years.

But the dilemma was that she knew her son wanted to go over and say hello, not because the Jiang family was Jiang Shijin's maternal family, but because Jiang Shiyuan was there, and the two of them were not destined to be together, and it would not do if they were entangled together now, so she was in a dilemma.

However, Zhao Yuyan did not understand the meaning of this. She just folded her hands in front of her belly, hoping to have a son soon. So she was very happy to be able to act more virtuous and generous in front of the prince.

Everyone had different thoughts, and when the Jiang family and Wenyuan Marquis's mansion saw Prince Song approaching, their faces were not very happy, especially the Marquis's wife, Mrs. Pei. She pulled Jiang Shiyuan to the side to block Prince Song's overly hot eyes, which then projected endless coldness and warnings.

"My little prince has met my great uncle, my old lady, and my Lord and Lady Marquis."

He knew how to save face. Even though he could sense that people were not welcoming him, he still spoke with a smile, causing those who were watching the fun to look over and wonder how the Jiang family would respond!
