Chapter 147 Isolation
Leaving the Qingwang Mansion, Jiang Ting and Sun Yun came out of the Qingwang Mansion and took the same carriage to walk along the road.
Since Jiang Ting confirmed that her guess is true, she has been in a very bad mood. But in front of people, she has to look calm no matter what. After enduring the grievance and annoy in her heart for a whole day, she felt that she was going crazy.
Originally, she thought that after more than two years of training, she could calm down no matter what happened. But now she understands that when she really encounters something extremely disgusting in her heart, that resentment can't calm people down at all.
There were only Sun Yun and Jiang Ting in the carriage, so Jiang Ting simply took off the mask on her face and relaxed herself for the time being. She leaned against the wall of the car, closed her eyes, and her face was full of undisguised resentment and anger. The anger emanating from all over her body made Sun Yun very worried.
She couldn't help asking, "Tingting, what are you going to do?"
Jiang Ting paused and replied, "I didn't expect it. Although there was a vague such speculation before, it has always been said that the prince and the crown princess were singing, so I didn't think much about it. Ha ha, sometimes, I suspect that I think too much. The Empress Dowager really likes me... I'm so stupid. I knew this, when I was in the palace..."
Sun Yun knew what she was talking about, but she still took her hand and shook her head and said, "Tingting, listen to me, I know you are angry. However, in any case, you can't destroy yourself in front of the Empress Dowager. Otherwise, even if you avoid the pain of entering the East Palace, you won't want to marry again in the future. If our woman's reputation is destroyed, everything will be destroyed.
Jiang Ting sighed deeply and sighed, "Sister Yun, don't worry, I understand what you said. However, I think that I have been calculated like a chess piece from the beginning..."
When Sun Yun heard this, she gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice: "Yes, it's so hateful! There is nothing good among the royals! There are so many women who want to climb high branches. Why do they have to force you? Tingting, don't give up. When I go back, I will talk to my mother and ask her to help you figure it out..."
"Sister Yun, you must not." Jiang Ting quickly stopped Sun Yun's words and said, "Don't interfere in this matter, let alone let your aunt intervene, understand?"
"Why?" Sun Yun opened her eyes and asked, "Aren't we good sisters? I should help you."
Jiang Ting sighed and shook her head and said, "It's not that you don't want help, but that you really can't help with this matter. Sister Yun, you can't help me with this matter.
Sun Yun was stunned and said angrily, "What should I do? Tingting, don't you have to wait to be carried into the East Palace? What's that?"
Jiang Ting smiled bitterly and said, "At present, we can only see how tough the royal attitude is. Maybe things are not as bad as I thought. As long as the royal attitude is not so resolute, I don't have time to take advantage of it.
Sun Yun looked at Jiang Ting with heartache and sighed, "If I had known, I wouldn't have let my mother marry my second brother. If the second brother hasn't been married yet, I will ask my mother to send a post to your house when I go back. I used to want you to be my second sister-in-law..."
Jiang Ting listened to Sun Yun's incompetent words, but she didn't know how to give her a reaction for a moment.

Back to Jiang's house, Jiang Ting thought about it again and again, but still failed to make up her mind to tell her father about it.
In the past two years, my father has become more and more busy, and he is no longer paying as much attention to her as before. Nowadays, even if she has changed to go to the courtyard every day, sometimes she can't see her father for several days.
However, Jiang Ting has no complaints about this. She is not a real child. She can clearly see how much pressure Jiang Yong bears. It turned out that she had thought about helping him share his worries. But later I found out how naive my idea was.
If you don't do anything in politics, you won't do it. Even if she is mature, even if she reads many history books and studies those mansion newspapers every month, she can only understand a general idea, but can't keep up with her father's ideas. If you can't keep up with his thoughts, how can you help him share his worries?
Dad seems to like to study these things and will talk to her about some political and state affairs in his spare time. For Jiang Ting, it was like going back to the time when only two people depended on each other. She has always cherished and studied very hard. But talent is not good. With only two or three years of hard work, it is impossible to achieve it.
And now, Jiang Yong is receiving more and more attention in the government, which means that he is getting busier and busier. Jiang Ting looked at the deeper wrinkles between his eyebrows and couldn't bear to disturb his rest in his spare time. Therefore, they even gradually disappear from the only habit of being able to communicate closely.
What's more, Jiang Yong now has a son. His attention is no longer on her as much as before.
Wen's first child gave birth to a boy. This is Jiang Yong's first son and eldest son, so he was really excited that day. For Jiang Yong, with his son, the Jiang family has a real bloodline. Although he loves Jiang Ting, his daughter and son are born with different missions. Son is the foundation for the Jiang family to prosper in the future.
With his son, Jiang Yong seems to have more motivation to struggle. Jiang Yong named his first son Jiang Cheng. The name contains his expectations for his son. He hopes that little Jiang Cheng can inherit the glory of the ancestors of the Jiang family in the future. And what he wants to do now is to restore the previous glory of the Jiang family.
Jiang Ting can see that her father really loves little Jiang Cheng. Many times, when she went to the main courtyard to greet him in the evening, she saw her father hugging him and teasing him, and Wen smiled quietly. Such a scene is so warm that people can't bear to disturb it. Similarly, after watching such a scene, it makes her feel like an outsider who broke into someone else's family...
Jiang Ting did not complain about Jiang Yong's change. But inevitably, she is very lost in her heart.
In fact, as early as after Jiang Yong agreed to let Wen's housekeeper at the beginning, Jiang Ting understood in her heart when Wen asked Jiang Yong to rebuild a large yard for her on the grounds that she lived in was too small and simple. Now, she is no longer the most important child in Jiang Yong's heart.
Jiang Ting has not been treated harshly by Wen, but she has not really been accepted by Wen.
When little Jiang Cheng was born, she was really happy. She is happy that she finally has a younger brother, and she is happy that she will never be alone again. Although she was not born of compatriots, she and Jiang Cheng have the blood of the Jiang family. They are blood relatives.
Jiang Ting is happy, excited and happy. She goes to the main courtyard every day to pay attention to the growth of the little doll. She hopes that she can do something for this little brother; she hopes to release her love for him; she hopes to grow up with him and become a good sister in his heart...
However, she was rejected.
Although Wen never said anything to keep her away from little Jiang Cheng. But when her initial excitement faded; when her mind began to clear up and began to calm down; she found Wen's defense against her. Wen never let Xiao Jiang use the things she gave. She sent Wen's tonics to mend her body, and gave Xiao Jiang Cheng's milk tonics, and Wen's all had them thrown into the inner library...
Jiang Ting's heart was cold. She began to stay away from little Jiang Cheng, so that Wen, who had just given birth, could relax and recover as soon as possible.
Then, I don't know when she began to find herself more and more like an outsider in this family. Their happiness, she wants to participate, but she can't get involved.
So now, for the first time after crossing, Jiang Ting feels so powerless and frustrated, so isolated and helpless. It's like she has changed back to the poor orphan.
