Chapter 5

Second Miss Jiang had been having headaches lately. First, Jin Zixuan actually thought that the Jiang Family was rushing to marry off their daughter in Jinlintai. He rolled his eyes at Jiang Er, making her want to forget about her plan and just kill this idiot. Second, Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng, the two little rascals, started complaining when they got home. They said that their second sister was quite interested in Nie Zongzhu, causing their parents to constantly interrogate her, as if she, Jiang Er, couldn't get married.

Wake up, with your behavior, it'd be strange if you could get married.

Jiang Xuan couldn't do anything about her parents, so she vented her anger on the two little rascals.

She first opened fire on Wei Wuxian. "Look at how improper you are. You don't even know how to sit or stand properly. How could the Lan Family associate with someone like you!

Why are you always looking forward to letters from the Lan Family?

Why don't you just live in the Lan Family?

But with someone like you, even the Lan Family might not want you as a son-in-law! "

Although Wei Wuxian knew that his sister was just angry, he didn't know why he felt a little uncomfortable, as if he had a guilty conscience after being exposed.

After scolding Wei Wuxian, he went to scold Jiang Cheng. "Did you memorize the book?

Did you use the array?

Did you practice the sword?

You didn't!

Then what are you doing all day!

Why are you looking at Wei Wuxian?

He can get first place even if he plays all day, what about you?

You can't even play as well as him. What's the use of you!

You even secretly went to catch ghosts. Even ghosts are more serious than you! "

After being scolded, her mood improved a little. She waved her hand and let the two brothers go.

Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian walked out with their heads down. As soon as they walked out of the door, they cheered and continued to play together.

Jiang Xuan knew what they were like, so she didn't care anymore.

However, when her father talked to her, he revealed that he wanted to marry Jiang Cheng to a girl from the Lan Family. She flatly refused.

This was also her negligence. She had always thought that her younger brother was still young. She didn't expect that it was time for him to be betrothed.

Although it wasn't appropriate for the second sister to interfere with Shaozong's marriage because both her parents were still alive, she was in a chaotic world now. Every step had to be carefully considered. Jiang Zongzhu didn't feel that his daughter was meddling too much.

Jiang Xuan didn't think that a girl from the Lan Clan was a good match. Firstly, Wei Wuxian liked a girl from the Lan Clan, and her eldest sister was married to Kim Se-ja. If she married into the Lan Clan, the Jiang Family would be too powerful.

Secondly, Jiang Cheng was honest and dutiful. His martial arts and stratagems were not outstanding. He needed a strong wife to intimidate the side branches of the Jiang Family. The daughter of the Lan Clan was too upright, so she might not be able to hold the fort.

However, the scheming and scheming women were all born in aristocratic families, and they might not be wholeheartedly planning for the Jiang Family.

Jiang Cheng's marriage was really difficult.

Unless a girl from an aristocratic family no longer existed — the Wen Clan!

Jiang Xuan's head didn't hurt anymore. She stood up abruptly, paced back and forth in the room, and then sat down again. She drank a mouthful of tea and calmed down before she began to think carefully.

This matter was too complicated. She had to figure it out from the beginning.

Jiang Xuan never thought of hiding the identity of the mistress. After all, people with intentions could always find out. Once it was revealed, even if there wasn't a conspiracy, it would be labeled as a conspiracy. It was better to openly admit it and give people the impression that she loved beauty more than the country.

First of all, if the young master of the Jiang Family married a daughter of the Wen Clan after the war with the Wen Clan, the Jiang Family would have to give up some benefits on the surface. The Jiang clan would definitely be dissatisfied if they didn't get any benefits after putting in effort. However, if the young master married a daughter of the Wen Clan, he would get some benefits from the Wen Clan secretly. It wouldn't be obvious, but it would shut the side branches up.

Secondly, other families would definitely be wary of the Jiang Family. It would be a good opportunity for the Jiang Family to restrain themselves. After all, based on the current strength of the families, the Jiang Family was the main force in the war with the Jiang Family. However, a tall tree attracts the wind. It was inevitable that people would think that the Jiang clan would be the next Wen Clan.

At the same time, it would prevent the Jiang Family from being pushed out to take charge after the war.

Thirdly, there would be no one in the Wen Clan. The daughter of the Wen Clan could only wholeheartedly serve the Jiang Family. When the time came, Jiang Cheng would be able to win the beauty's heart by being a hero and saving the beauty.

However, it was hard to guarantee that the old relatives of the Wen Clan would cause trouble again. Therefore, she had to find a girl who already had complaints against the Wen Clan.

After thinking about it, Jiang Xuan suddenly thought of the girl she had. She was bold, careful, intelligent, and courageous. She was also dissatisfied with the Wen Clan. Moreover, her identity was easy to get. When the time came, she could just say that she was a spy.

Moreover, she had promised to protect Tenderness and Wen Ning. This was killing two birds with one stone.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was a good match. Jiang Xuan immediately went to discuss it with her father.

Jiang Zongzhu was not good at these twists and turns. After listening to his daughter's analysis, he also felt that it was a good idea. The matter was settled just like that.

From the beginning to the end, the two of them had never thought of informing Jiang Cheng. Therefore, the poor little boy, who was still running around and having fun, had no idea that his sister had found a wife for him.

— — —

Jiang Er thought about it and felt that her brother's marriage was much more important than the Wen Family. Therefore, she was more active in stirring up trouble. The sooner she killed the Wen Family, the sooner her brother could find a wife.

She sent a message to the person she had planted beside Wen Ruohan's second son, Wen Chao. She was ready to take it no more.

Wen Chao was a complete idiot. She didn't even need to think to use him. Therefore, Jiang Er quickly got what she wanted. Wen Chao suggested to Wen Ruohan that they imitated the Lan Clan's teachings and let each family send their heirs to learn.

Wen Ruohan had been dissatisfied with the Lan family ever since he heard the rumors that the Lan family was disloyal. In addition, according to the rumors, the Kim family carefully flattered the Wen Clan. In comparison, the Lan family felt that the Lan family was not suitable.

Now that there was a plan that could let each family send their heirs over and also cause trouble for the Lan family, Wen Ruohan thought about it and agreed.

At the same time, he praised the second son who came up with this plan and let him be in charge of the Wen Clan's teachings.

Before sending Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng to the Wen Family, Jiang Xuan held Jiang Cheng's hand and carefully instructed, "The Wen Clan is being led by Wen Chao this time. This person is narrow-minded and envious of talents. He doesn't have any ability, so he will definitely cause trouble.

The two of you are the pride of our Jiang Family. This time, when you go to Qishan, you have to be open-minded and act the same as when you were studying in the Lan family. Let others see the magnanimity of our Jiang Family. At the same time, you have to take good care of your classmates. Don't ruin the reputation of the Jiang Family. "

Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian translated: Wen Chao, who is in charge this time, is a narrow-minded idiot. He will definitely cause trouble. Don't be afraid and face him head-on.

If Wen Chao is afraid of the Jiang Family and doesn't dare to cause trouble for you, you have to meddle in other people's affairs, especially Wei Wuxian. You have to do what you did in the Lan family. In short, you have to fight. "

Wei Wuxian said in his heart, "Isn't this simple? Who can compare to him when it comes to causing trouble? Even Lan Chi-jen, a person with good self-restraint, can be angered to the point of roaring, let alone Wen Chao."

Jiang Xuan also trusted Wei Wuxian's ability to cause trouble very much. After a few days, he brought them back.

According to Jiang Cheng, they first stopped Wen Chao from using live people as bait. Then, together with Lan Wangji and Jin Zixuan, they confronted Wen Chao. In the end, Wen Chao's prey was killed by Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji. They were in the limelight.

Jiang Xuan was very satisfied and gave them a few days off to encourage them. At the same time, he announced to the public that the two children were seriously injured and couldn't see guests. He wanted to ask the Wen Family for an explanation.

Wen Ruohan was furious when he saw that the Jiang Family didn't give him any face. However, he didn't dare to really be ruthless.

At this time, Tenderness came over to offer him a plan.

Tenderness was originally a member of the Wen Family, and Wen Ruohan naturally trusted her. In addition, Tenderness was impartial in handling matters, and he liked her very much. Thus, she gradually became his trusted aide.

This time, Tenderness's plan also made Wen Ruohan very satisfied.

What a beast!

This was the first thought that came to Tenderness's mind when she received Jiang Er's message.

Although the Lan family couldn't be said to be indebted to Jiang Er, Lan Chi-jen was half a teacher to him, and the Lan family was also his classmate. However, Jiang Er actually wanted to burn down the Lan family's library. This was equivalent to wanting the Lan family's life.

Although Tenderness had long sided with Jiang Xuan, Jiang Xuan didn't allow her to do anything. This was the first time that Jiang Xuan gave her an order, and if she did it well, she wouldn't expose herself.

However, Tenderness still didn't understand what the purpose of Jiang Xuan's series of actions was. Even she couldn't figure it out, let alone the other members of the Wen Family who didn't know about it.

This is the reason why Jiang Xuan can sit behind the scenes and devise strategies, while I can only be a spy here, Tenderness thought gloomily.

However, this matter still had to be done. Tenderness also knew that this matter didn't necessarily have to be done by her, it was just that she was the fastest to do it.

She still had her younger brother. In order to prove her loyalty and ability to Jiang Er, she had to do it beautifully.

Tenderness coldly watched as Wen Ruohan scolded the group of servants. She calmly walked forward and said, "Clan Head, Tenderness has searched through the Wen Clan's library these past few days and found the prescription that Clan Head mentioned. However, it's only an incomplete copy. Clan Head, please take a look."

As she spoke, she handed over a copy of the prescription.

Wen Ruohan had been looking for this prescription for a long time. He had practiced bitterly for many years, but he hadn't been able to achieve great success. Later, Tenderness suggested that there might be a supplementary medicine that could be useful. Now that he found it, he was naturally satisfied.

Actually, the prescription was complete. The other half had been torn out by Tenderness and sprayed with red tea, as if it had been half a long time ago.

Tenderness continued, "Clan Head, I've heard that the Gusu Lam clan's library has a rich collection of books. Perhaps we can find all of it."

Wen Ruohan had been obsessed with the magical skills. As soon as he heard that there was a way out for the Lan family, he didn't even think twice before asking Tenderness to go get it.

Tenderness seemed to be in a difficult position. "Tenderness's martial arts are low, so only medical skills can be used. If the Lan family doesn't allow it, Tenderness …"

All of a sudden, Wen Ruohan was dissatisfied with the Lan family. Thus, he said to Tenderness, "You'd better concentrate on studying the prescription in the Wen Clan. I'll ask someone else to get it."

After saying that, he seemed to realize something and glanced suspiciously at Tenderness.

Tenderness pretended that she didn't see it and continued to say hesitantly, "I've heard that the Jiang Family gave the Kim family a Green Lotus. This thing can increase the success rate of refining spiritual medicine. I was thinking …"

Wen Ruohan finally let go of his suspicions and said gently, "If the Jiang Family can give this thing, it means that they must have something even better. I'll ask someone to go get it.

You're very good. You're loyal, devoted, and thoughtful. When the spiritual medicine is refined, you'll definitely have a share. Your martial arts are too low. You need to practice hard. "
