However, there were also people who pitied Princess Gu.
She had never entered the general’s estate, yet she actually let another woman cross the door first. This was simply slapping her in the face.
Perhaps she had jumped from a peasant girl to a princess of Guguo. However, she had no background or backing. She was bullied like this and could not fight back. She could only endure her grievances and secretly suffer this huge loss.
In three days, she would be marrying into the Defender General’s Estate.
Xiao Jingyu, who had returned to the posthouse, was in a state of confusion and loss. She was even constantly paranoid. She did not dare to eat casually or walk alone.
However, Xiao Jingrui also ordered the servants to pay attention to Xiao Jingyu’s own safety.
Ever since he heard Lin Yuelan!s words, he felt uneasy, as if Lin Yuelan was
He had to ensure that Xiao Jingyu would successfully marry into General Jiang Zhennan’s manor within these three days.
As long as Xiao Jingyu married Jiang Zhennan, regardless of whether Xiao
Jingyu had an accident or not, she would finally occupy a position on Jiang Zhennan’s side, separating Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan. As time passed, even if Xiao Jingyu was really killed by Jiang Zhennan, the relationship between Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan might not be separated but estranged. They would definitely gradually become suspicious of each other.
After all, the princess of Guguo was extremely narrow-minded. Moreover, Xiao Jingyu’s status as an equal wife was a slap to her face and also a stain on Jiang Zhennan’s relationship.
As long as Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan were separated, he would have a way to make Lin Yuelan work for him.
‘ Second Prince, Second Prince, it’s bad.” The servant girl who served Xiao Jingyu rushed over with a pale face and was about to throw herself into Xiao Jingrui’s arms.
“How dare you!” The guard standing next to Xiao Jingrui shouted.
The girl’s face flashed with fear. She looked at Xiao Jingrui and said in horror,”
Your Highness, something happened to the princess!”
Xiao Jingrui’s eyes flashed, and he asked sternly, “What happened?”
The little palace maid said,” The princess ate a small piece of watermelon and was… choked!” She was the princess’s personal palace lady, so she knew what had happened yesterday.
Therefore, when she saw her master choking on a seed, she was stunned!
“What?” Xiao Jingrui’s expression was full of shock!
Then, he asked,” What’s going on?”
The servant girl reported,” The princess doesn’t dare to eat. Since the princess returned to the posthouse from the palace yesterday, she hasn’t eaten anything for a day and a night. She just wanted to eat something soft to fill her stomach, so she thought of eating watermelon. Who would have thought…” Who would have thought that a small watermelon seed in a slice of watermelon could make the princess choke?
Xiao Jingrui immediately walked to Xiao Jingyu’s room.
Inside the room the imperial physician that they had brought was already in her room.
“Princess, please open your mouth!” A middle-aged imperial physician said.
Xiao Jingyu wanted to open her mouth wide, but the melon seed stuck in her throat seemed to have a life of its own. It grew bigger and bigger, almost bursting her throat. She could not open it, no matter how hard she tried.
Because her throat was blocked, Xiao Jingyu couldn’t breathe at all. Her face was green and purple as if she was going to burst at any moment.
Xiao Jingrui’s brows were tightly knitted. He then stepped forward and walked to Xiao Jingyu’s back. He reached out his palm and used some internal strength to pat her back.
Then, a small watermelon seed flew out of Xiao Jingyu’s mouth, along with some bright red liquid.
“Cough cough…” The watermelon seeds were gone, and Xiao Jingyu kept coughing. From time to time, there would be some blood at the corner of her mouth.
The imperial physician picked up the watermelon seed that was still stained with blood from the ground and said doubtfully,” Logically speaking, such a small thing shouldn’t have gotten stuck in the princess’ throat.” How strange.
The others looked at the watermelon seed that was only the size of a baby’s
fingernail and were equally puzzled.
It was impossible for such a small thing to get stuck in her throat, but this happened.
Xiao Jingrui looked at the bloody watermelon seeds in the hands of the imperial physician, his eyebrows tightly knitted, and he entered deep thought!
Xiao Jingyu came back to her senses and knelt down directly to Xiao Jingrui. She kowtowed and said tearfully,” Second Brother, I don’t want to marry Jiang
Zhennan. I don’t want to marry Second Brother. I beg you.”
Then, she looked at Xiao Jingrui and said with despair,” Second Brother, that
Jiang Zhennan is really a jinx. Yesterday, I was just ordered to marry Jiang Zhennan. Today, a watermelon seed almost killed me. If Second Brother had come a moment later, I would have died. I don’t want to be cursed to death by Jiang Zhennan. Second brother, I beg you. As long as I don’t marry Jiang Zhennan, 1 can marry anyone else in the Longyan Kingdom..”
