Chapter 508: Prince, You Don’t Have to Wait for Me
Jiang Dichen paused for a moment and said to Shen Ruolan with reluctance, "But I see that you don't seem to be that excited or happy about our wedding ceremony. If, if you really don't want to marry me, I won't force you."
When Jiang Dichen finished saying this, his heart couldn't help but ache.
He was really scared, afraid that Shen Ruolan really didn't want to marry him, but he didn't want to see her unhappy.
Therefore, if she really chose not to marry, he would have no choice but to give up and fulfill her wish.
Shen Ruolan looked at the uneasy man and knew that he was overthinking. She smiled at him and said, "Jiang Dichen, you think too much. I married you willingly. It's just my temper. Plus, you worry about everything, so I didn't care."
After Jiang Dichen heard Shen Ruolan's words, he excitedly held her hand and asked, "Ruolan, are you telling the truth?"
Shen Ruolan nodded to him with certainty, "It's more real than real gold."
After Jiang Dichen got Shen Ruolan's assurance, he suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms and said hoarsely in her ear: "Ruolan, do you know? I'm really afraid that you don't want me anymore."
Shen Ruolan looked up at him and said, "Don't worry, since I have already agreed to marry you, I will not abandon you."
"Okay." After Jiang Dichen finished speaking, he looked down at the woman in his arms and couldn't help but kiss her.
Shen Ruolan was stunned for a moment, but soon she came back to her senses and tried to respond to him slowly. Just when the two were reluctant to part, Xiao Anhe suddenly ran out from the corner, looked at the two of them with curiosity and asked, "Dad, Mom, what are you doing?"
When Shen Ruolan heard her daughter's voice, she quickly pushed Jiang Dichen away, got out of his arms, wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth, and said to her daughter with an unnatural look: "An He, we are fine, why are you here alone?"
Little An He pointed at Shen Zeyi who was standing in the corner of the doorway and said, "Mother, my brother and the Liu ladies are at the doorway."
Shen Ruolan looked in the direction her daughter pointed, and she realized that there were many people staring at them behind the door, which made her face flush instantly. She quickly took her daughter's hand and said, "An He, let's go. Mommy will take you to play."
After she finished speaking, she didn't even look at Jiang Dichen and ran away with her daughter.
When Shen Ze saw his mother leaving, he quickly followed and said, "Mom, wait for me."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Dichen picked him up, looked at him with resentment and said, "Stinky boy, why are you here making trouble instead of having fun over there?"
Shen Zeyi looked at his father and said innocently, "Dad, my sister and I are just passing by."
Shen Zeyi was telling the truth. It was time for him and his sister to study, so Aunt Liu took them to the study. But halfway through the trip, they ran into their father and mother.
Jiang Dichen didn't really want to blame his son. He put him down and said, "Okay, go find your mother."
Shen Zeyi looked at his father and asked, "Dad, aren't you going?"
Jiang Dichen said: "Dad has something else to do, I will come back to see you later."
"Okay." After hearing his father's words, Shen Zeyi hurriedly ran towards his mother.
Jiang Dichen looked at his son running away, smiled silently, and turned to walk out the door.
In a blink of an eye, a few days passed. After Jiang Qing dealt with his mother's affairs, he found Shen Ruolan and said, "Ruolan, I'm really sorry, my mother..."
Jiang Qing was a little at a loss for words when he got to this point, because no matter what his mother was like, he couldn't say anything bad about her.
Shen Ruolan looked at Jiang Qing, who was in a dilemma, and smiled at him, "Prince, let's not talk about the past. Besides, the Queen has paid a price for it, and I have settled my grievances with her."
Jiang Qing nodded to Shen Ruolan, then he took the small wooden box from his subordinate and handed it to Shen Ruolan, saying, "This is the extra box I prepared for you. I wanted to wait until the day you got married to give it to you, but now I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until that day."
Shen Ruolan looked at the small wooden box in front of her. She hesitated for a moment, but finally took the box and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
After she finished speaking, she paused for a moment and continued to ask him, "When is the eldest prince going to set off?"
Jiang Qing smiled bitterly and said to Shen Ruolan vaguely: "Probably in a few days."
Shen Ruolan heard that he would be leaving in a few days, so she looked at him and sincerely wished him well: "Ruolan wishes the eldest prince a safe journey."
Shen Ruolan also didn't expect that because of this incident, Jiang Qing's position as crown prince would be abolished.
But this matter has nothing to do with her. If anyone is to be blamed, blame the queen for being restless and ultimately hurting others and herself.
"Thank you," Jiang Qing said.
After that, the two chatted for a while, until they couldn't stay any longer, Jiang Qing mustered up the courage and said to Shen Ruolan seriously: "Ruolan, if Lao Wu treats you badly, you can come to Beijiang to find me anytime."
"I... will wait for you." Jiang Qing finished speaking and turned around and left quickly without waiting for Shen Ruolan to answer.
Shen Ruolan had no choice but to look at his back and said, "Prince, you don't have to wait for me. I, Shen Ruolan, will always see the end to the beginning no matter what the outcome is."
Shen Ruolan's words made Jiang Qing pause for a moment, and he left with a bad feeling in his heart.
After Ji Ning waited for the eldest prince to leave, she looked at the small wooden box in her master's arms and asked curiously, "Master, what kind of makeup did the eldest prince add to you?"
Shen Ruolan took a look at the small wooden box, handed it to Ji Ning and said, "If you want to know, go open it yourself."
Ji Ning held the small wooden box and asked his master with a smile: "Master, don't you want to take a look?"
Shen Ruolan shook her head and said, "Just look at it for me."
Don't employ a person you doubt, and don't doubt a person you employ. Ji Ning helped her manage all the finances, so when others gave her boxes of gifts, they just had to give them to her, and she rarely worried about it.
"Okay." After Ji Ning finished speaking, he left with the small wooden box.
Not long after, she ran over again with the small wooden box in her arms, and said to Shen Ruolan excitedly and incoherently: "Master, this small wooden box, this small wooden box..."
Shen Ruolan glanced at the small wooden box in Ji Ning's hand, raised her eyebrows and asked her, "What's wrong with the small wooden box?"
Ji Ning pointed at the small wooden box and said, "Master, this small wooden box contains a million taels of silver notes. Isn't this too much?"
When Shen Ruolan heard Jiang Qing give her so many banknotes, she quickly took the small wooden box and said to Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, quickly prepare the carriage. We are going to the Prince's Mansion."
Although Jiang Qing's title of crown prince was taken back, he still lived in the crown prince's mansion.
"Yes, master." Ji Ning also knew the seriousness of the matter and hurried to prepare the carriage.
But Shen Ruolan was still a step too late. When she brought Ji Ning to the Prince's Mansion, Jiang Qing had already left with his people.
