Chapter 1141: Chapter 1138_1

At this point, Jiang Yuheng also spoke up: "The Fifth Princess is right! If those who do wrong are constantly protected and defended by others, then they will never realize their mistakes! If one wants to maintain a harmonious family, especially a large one, it must always be guided by reason! On this great day of joy, my stepmother deliberately brought in a person to cause trouble for the Fifth Princess and me! This is unjust, this is malicious intent! Punishment is inevitable!"

Fact has proven that she is unrepentant!

Then let her receive her lesson!

He wasn’t always this generous before, so now that he has the opportunity, of course, he must exact revenge!

Seize the opportunity to imprison her, and then the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion can finally find peace!

He too has completely avenged his parents, his own parents can finally rest in peace!

The guards of the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion rushed forward to drag the former Duchess down.

After listening to Jiang Yuheng’s words, the Duke remained silent!

Overindulgence, or being inherently wrong!

If it weren’t for his knowledge that his eldest son would inherit his title and his subsequent indulgence in his second son, or satisfying all his desires, then perhaps the situation of brotherly friction and family ruin wouldn’t have occurred today!

Jiang Weijia saw his mother being arrested and quickly said: "Brother, there may be some misunderstanding in all of this. How can you imprison our mother based on the words of a stranger! You can’t believe the words of a stranger over your flesh and blood!"

Flesh and blood?

With a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, Jiang Yuheng listened to his words. It was because their family had once trusted their relatives too much that it had led to their downfall!

Now, they’re not relatives, they’re enemies! Avowed enemies holding deep blood feuds!

"Take her away! Whether it’s a misunderstanding or not, the officials at Dali Temple and Shuntian Mansion will investigate this matter thoroughly! If it truly is a misunderstanding, I will personally go to the prison to apologize and bring my stepmother back home, does that sound acceptable?"

Jiang Weijia wanted to say more.

Jiang Yuheng looked at Jiang Weijia: "Do you know what day it is for the Fifth Princess and me? What importance it holds? We have been looking forward to and waiting for this day for countless years!

Are you sure you still want to hinder us? If the auspicious hour is delayed, don’t blame me for disregarding brotherly love!"

After hearing these words, Jiang Weijia dared not say anything more, he looked at his mother apologetically. He made a vow in his heart that he would find out the truth and rescue his mother as soon as possible.

Upon seeing herself being arrested, Liao Chunyu couldn’t help shouting: "Didn’t I already tell the truth? Why are you still arresting me?"

The people present laughed when they heard this: "Miss, do you think that if you tell the truth, that means you are innocent? If you’ve done something wrong, it’s wrong! If you did something wrong, you must be punished!"

"That’s right, her sin is unforgivable, but her penalty can be reduced! Take her away!" the Fifth Princess said faintly.

No matter what Liao Chunyu said afterwards, she was taken away, and the Fifth Princess’s wedding ceremony continued.

After completing the bowing ritual at the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion, Xiao’er helped the Fifth Princess with her makeup and informed her about Liao Chunyu’s situation.

After all, when she and Shangguan Xuanyi found Jiang Yuheng, they had also seen Liao Chunyu and knew that it was all one-sided feelings on the girl’s part.

The Fifth Princess laughed after hearing Xiao’er’s words: "Sixth Princess, I know, don’t worry, I won’t let others ruin my mood. Taken by surprise as I am, that this day has finally come is the greatest joy for me!

Even if my brother Jiang once had something with that Miss Liao, it would have occurred when he had lost his memory. Ignorance is innocence!

Now that he has come back alive, I’m already overjoyed, not to mention that he did nothing to betray me.

Today, my joy will not be diminished by anything or anyone! So, I didn’t take this matter to heart! Moreover..."

Upon saying this, the Fifth Princess gave Xiao’er a mischievous smile, and then whispered: "Upon entering the door, the thorn in one’s eye and flesh, is removed! Isn’t this double happiness? Why shouldn’t I be happy?"

She had been worried that the former Duchess would behave herself for the rest of her life, not revealing any flaws!

That way, Jiang Yuheng would have to watch his enemy swagger around in front of him, wouldn’t that be suffocating?

No matter what joyous event he encounters, seeing her would sour it!

Now they’ve seized the opportunity to get rid of her! It’s all as it should be!

After hearing this, Xiao’er knew that she had been worrying over nothing!

That’s right, who is the Fifth Princess? She had to endure tremendous pressure to become an "old spinster"!

How could such a woman of great perseverance, be upset over such a minor issue!

Seeing that the Fifth Princess was not saddened, Xiao’er felt relieved.

Indeed, there was no unhappiness in the heart of the Fifth Princess, she just felt sorry for brother Jiang! The calculations of the Duchess of Zhen, and the appearance of that Miss Liao, must have brought back his memories of losing his memory for ten years!

Ten years of life and death uncertainty! In this world, there’s nothing more helpless than being separated by life and death!

...

Xiao’er quickly helped the Fifth Princess with another set of makeup, combed another hairstyle, changed into a new evening dress, and her aura immediately transformed into a fresh and ethereal little princess.

This naturally won another round of praise from everyone!

Next, they sat in carriages and switched venues.

They arrived at the Four Seasons Restaurant, to attend the modern wedding ceremony.

The Fifth Princess likes peonies, so the entire wedding venue was mainly decorated with peonies, romantic and luxurious!

Of course, the banquet was also held to the highest standard.

Shangguan Ruixi looked at the table with dishes even better than his son’s full moon feast, he couldn’t help but quietly pull Jiang Yuheng over and ask: "Brother Jiang, do you know how much silver it costs for a table like this?"

Wait for the treasury of the Duke’s Mansion to be emptied! Probably without a million taels, the bill cannot be settled! Don’t forget that during the last Full Moon Feast, half the dishes were made with vegetarian food, and yet they were still so expensive!

Now this table is filled with genuine delicacies! Flying in the sky, walking on the ground, crawling underground, swimming in the water, four-legged, two-legged, legless! Everything you could think of!

How could the silver be less!

Jiang Yuheng nodded: "Yes, I know! A thousand taels!"

A thousand taels? A thousand taels of gold, right? That would be 10,000 taels! Shangguan Ruixi, with a sigh on his face said: "One table for 10,000 taels! Wow, Princess Rui really knows how to take advantage of the occasion to rob! This time, she must have earned back all the dowry given to the Fifth Princess! Brother Jiang, I didn’t expect you to be a rich man, able to afford a banquet table of 10,000 taels each!"

Jiang Yuheng was bewildered by these words: "What 10,000 taels, it’s 1,000 taels!"

"Right, 1,000 taels of gold! I know, you don’t need to repeat it!"

"No, not 1,000 taels of gold, but 1,000 taels of silver!" Jiang Yuheng explained.

The prince must be mad! A banquet table worth 1,000 taels of gold would mean that the entire banquet table was made of gold!

Besides, one table for 1,000 taels of gold! Where would he get so much gold to pay the bill! There’s no gold mine hidden in the mansion!
