Eagle-eyed and wolf-watching

Chapter 1639 Go to Yijing!
July 29th, Yujing, Royal Palace
Early in the morning, Jiang Yuyan woke up from her sleep. Jiang Dongjia, who opened his eyes and gradually woke up from his sleep, did not get up immediately, but lay quietly in bed for a while before slowly sitting up.

Seeing Jiang Yuyan got up, several maids walked into the room and began to help her wash and dress up.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Jiang Yuyan suddenly felt an inexplicable irritation in her heart!

After her husband Wang Yingjie passed away, Jiang Yuyan inherited all the Wang family's property with her stepson Wang Pingan. Although she was heartbroken, Jiang Yuyan at that time felt that there was nothing wrong with being single for the rest of her life without a man!
Because Wang Ping'an, the son, was not Jiang Yuyan's biological son, but was born to Wang Yingjie's concubine Cao, so Wang Ping'an was Jiang Yuyan's son according to etiquette. However, Jiang Yuyan did not attach much importance to this child, and focused all her life and work on developing the Wang family's Yuchuntang business!
After successfully betting on the Fengwu Army and taking advantage of the Fengwu Army's popularity, the Wang family's business entered the fast lane under the leadership of Jiang Yuyan. Especially after obtaining the banknote exchange license and establishing the Rishengchang Banknote Exchange, they became one of the largest businessmen in Hebei and Henan!

At this time, Jiang Yuyan also met Ye Mingsheng. Although there were some minor episodes, Jiang Yuyan eventually hooked up with Marshal Ye and the later Emperor Daqian.

Relying on her special relationship with Ye Mingsheng, Jiang Yuyan was able to develop the business of Rishengchang and Yuchuntang beyond Hebei and Henan as she wished, and expanded the business of Wang's Yuchuntang to many other fields such as grain, cloth, porcelain, etc.

Just when Jiang Yuyan was ambitiously wanting to expand Yuchuntang's business to the whole world, her relationship with Ye Mingsheng also faced a major challenge!

As the Fengwu Army defeated the Luoan court and became the actual controller of the northern part of Daqian, how to deal with the Jiang royal family was the problem that Ye Mingsheng had to face!
At that time, people said that Ye Mingsheng's intentions were known to everyone, and it was obvious that Ye Mingsheng did not want to be a loyal minister and general of the Great Zhou for his whole life as he had promised!
For Ye Mingsheng, there is no psychological pressure in seizing the Great Zhou Dynasty!

Jiang Yuyan, who came from a royal family, had always wanted to avoid this issue, but she had mixed feelings as she watched her lover take away her kingdom!
Jiang Yuyan finally succumbed to reality and accepted the fact that Ye Mingsheng was about to take over her family's empire, but she hoped that Ye Mingsheng would treat the Jiang family well.

At that time, the Fengwu Army already had the momentum to swallow up the world, and Ye Mingsheng didn't need the tiger skin of the Great Zhou so much. At that time, there were already many people in the Fengwu Army who wanted to persuade him to join!

However, considering the ZZ influence and his own personal reputation among the people, Ye Mingsheng agreed to Jiang Yuyan and asked Jiang Yuyan to go to Luoan first to talk to some people from the Jiang royal family. On the one hand, to dispel their unrealistic ideas, and on the other hand to select a puppet that Ye Mingsheng could control!
In the end, Ye Mingsheng chose Jiang Cong from the three possible candidates given by Jiang Yuyan, making him the last king of the Great Zhou!

When choosing Jiang Cong, Ye Mingsheng never thought of hurting him. In Ye Mingsheng's eyes, Jiang Cong was always a child. But fate played tricks on him. Although Jiang Cong was a child, he still had the blood of the Jiang family in his body. So in the end, Ye Mingsheng acquiesced to An Miaoyi's poisoning of Jiang Cong...
In addition to poisoning Jiang Cong, Ye Mingsheng did not kill the other members of the Jiang royal family, but he transferred them to Liaoyang. Although Jiang Yuyan did not dare to say anything about this on the surface, she still felt that Ye Mingsheng had broken his promise and violated his original promise to treat the Jiang royal family well!

Although Jiang Yuyan never dared to express such thoughts, even if she didn't say it, Ye Mingsheng understood what was in Jiang Yuyan's mind, and this matter was more or less a breach of trust on his part, Ye Mingsheng. At the beginning, he had indeed promised Jiang Yuyan to treat Jiang Cong and the entire Jiang royal family well!
But in the end this was the result, so Ye Mingsheng still felt a little guilty. For this reason, Ye Mingsheng rejected An Miaoyi's idea of ​​killing one person is killing, killing a thousand people is killing, including Jiang Yuyan, and killing all the Jiang royal family members.

The death of Jiang Cong and the treatment of the Jiang royal family also became a knot between Ye Mingsheng and Jiang Yuyan.

Although Ye Mingsheng did not agree with An Miaoyi's idea of ​​killing Jiang Yuyan and all the Jiang royal family members, but considering the safety factors and the fact that Ye Mingsheng was not short of women, Ye Mingsheng had no contact with Jiang Yuyan since then...
Although Ye Mingsheng had forgotten Jiang Yuyan, it was difficult for Jiang Yuyan to forget Ye Mingsheng. After all, Ye Mingsheng was her second man after her husband Wang Yingjie. At the same time, under the supervision of the guards around her, it was impossible for her to have other men!
Therefore, with her husband Wang Yingjie dead, Ye Mingsheng was her only thought!

Jiang Yuyan has very complicated feelings towards Ye Mingsheng. From the perspective of career development, Ye Mingsheng is a noble man in her life. Without Ye Mingsheng's help and permission, Yuchuntang Company and Rishengchang Bank would not be as prosperous as they are now, and she, Jiang Yuyan, would not have the power she has today!

From the perspective of love between men and women, although Ye Mingsheng looks rather ordinary and not very outstanding in appearance, Ye Mingsheng's identity and power completely make up for his mediocre appearance and fully satisfy Jiang Yuyan's inner vanity as a woman!

In addition, during their interactions, Ye Mingsheng did not act in a domineering or disrespectful manner towards Jiang Yuyan just because of the difference in status!

If it weren’t for the Jiang family’s affairs, Jiang Yuyan really liked Ye Mingsheng in her heart!
But with the Jiang family, Jiang Yuyan's feelings towards Ye Mingsheng were very complicated. Whenever it was late at night, Jiang Yuyan would think of Jiang Cong's tragic death, and the experiences of the Jiang family members in the bitter cold of Liaoyang.

Whenever she thought of this, Jiang Yuyan felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. She even had the idea that if Ye Mingsheng came to find her again, she would take advantage of Ye Mingsheng's let down of his guard and stab him in the back!
But after careful consideration, and the reality that Ye Mingsheng did not come to see her again, Jiang Yuyan finally gave up this idea...
Now Jiang Yuyan has completely faced the reality. She knows that Ye Mingsheng, as the emperor, is already surrounded by all kinds of beautiful women. Even though she is only in her early thirties, in Ye Mingsheng's eyes, she is probably already a middle-aged woman!

Whenever she thought of this, Jiang Yuyan wanted to numb herself with more work and make herself forget about Ye Mingsheng, the man who cheated on her and then abandoned her. However, those G employees and businessmen who socialized with her on weekdays always mentioned Ye Mingsheng intentionally or unintentionally, and wanted Jiang Yuyan to help introduce them to Ye Mingsheng!

Whenever encountering such a situation, Jiang Yuyan really wanted to tell the other party that Ye Mingsheng had not come to see her for a long time, that Ye Mingsheng had abandoned her, and asked the other party not to mention Ye Mingsheng again!

However, the rational mind stopped Jiang Yuyan from thinking like this. Jiang Yuyan knew very well that the success of Yuchuntang and Rishengchang was largely due to the support of the local government. Why did the local government support them?
In addition to the fact that Rishengchang Bank can provide some help to the government, to a greater extent the relationship between Jiang Yuyan and Ye Mingsheng!
In a sense, Jiang Yuyan is using Ye Mingsheng's skin to do business, but if she loses this skin, will the business still be so smooth?
Jiang Yuyan knew the answer to this question very well. So even though she had not had any contact with Ye Mingsheng for a long time, in front of others, Jiang Yuyan still had to show that she and Ye Mingsheng had a close relationship. In order to pretend to be more like her, she still spent a lot of money to buy bonds from Dadongsheng Bank, in order to create the illusion that she and Ye Mingsheng were very close...
All these things made Jiang Yuyan very tired both physically and mentally, and also made her feelings towards Ye Mingsheng even more complicated!

Jiang Yuyan, who was sitting in front of the dressing mirror at this time, saw the maid trying to put on makeup for her. She was annoyed and said directly:

"No need to put makeup on me!"

"Madam?"

"Women dress up to please themselves. Who would I show my makeup to? Forget it, all of you, leave now!"

"Yes!"

Just when all the maids left and Jiang Yuyan was feeling sad alone, footsteps were heard behind her.

Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Yuyan frowned and rebuked:

"I told you all to back off!"

"Madam! It's me, Qiao'er!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuyan turned to look at her trusted maid and asked:

"Qiao'er, what's the matter?"

"Madam! Wang Li said he has something to report to you!" Jiang Yuyan was stunned at first, then asked again to confirm:
"Wang Li wants to report something to me?"

"Madam, that's it!"

"What does he want to report?"

"I don't know about this, but I heard that Wang Li received instructions from Yi Jing last night!"

After hearing Yi Jing's instructions, a possibility suddenly emerged in Jiang Yuyan's mind, and her eyes became expectant. She immediately spoke:

"Then let him come over!"

"Yes!"

A moment later, a burly man came to Jiang Yuyan. After bowing to her, he began to speak:
"Boss Jiang, I received an order last night, requiring us to withdraw to Yijing immediately. In addition, His Majesty also has a message for you! His Majesty wants you to do business well, and he wishes you all the best in your future life..."

Hearing what Wang Li said, Jiang Yuyan felt as if she was struck by lightning!
This Wang Li is from the Coordination Office. The Coordination Office sent him here, ostensibly to protect Jiang Yuyan's safety, but Jiang Yuyan knew very well that this Wang Li was the person responsible for monitoring her!

Although she is not Ye Mingsheng's concubine, but only Ye Mingsheng's mistress, she is also Ye Mingsheng's woman, so in order to prevent her from cheating on Ye Mingsheng, some necessary measures must be taken!

At first, Jiang Yuyan was not used to the surveillance of Wang Li and others, and even felt very disgusted with their presence. But now, when she heard that Wang Li was leaving, Jiang Yuyan felt a little flustered. She understood what Wang Li's withdrawal and Ye Mingsheng's words meant!
If Ye Mingsheng's failure to come to see her before was a de facto abandonment of her, then what Ye Mingsheng did now was to completely cut off ties with her, indicating that he had nothing to do with her anymore!
To be honest, before today, Jiang Yuyan had thought that Ye Mingsheng would completely abandon her one day. Jiang Yuyan even expected such a situation in her heart. After all, if Ye Mingsheng didn't want her, she could secretly find a few lovers!
She is also a woman, and in her lonely times, she also hopes to get emotional comfort!

However, when Jiang Yuyan heard this from Wang Li, she did not feel any joy in her heart. On the contrary, she felt wronged, sad, and helpless and panicked after being abandoned..."

Wang Li looked at Jiang Yuyan, and seeing that Jiang Yuyan didn't seem to have anything to say, he bowed to her again and wanted to leave.

But just after Wang Li turned around and walked out two steps, Jiang Yuyan suddenly spoke;

"Wait a minute! Wang Li, please stay!"

"Ma'am, do you have anything else to do for me?"

"Did it say when you were to leave?"

"They didn't say that, they just asked me to go back!"

"Then don't worry! You have been protecting me for such a long time. Now that you are leaving, I have to arrange a farewell party for you! Thank you very much, you and your brothers can leave tomorrow!"

Wang Li hesitated for a moment before nodding and said:

"Thank you very much, ma'am!"

After Wang Li left, Jiang Yuyan finally couldn't hold back any more. Two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks. She cried and said to Qiao'er:
"That heartless person! Why did you treat me like this? What did I do wrong?"

Looking at the crying master, Qiao'er said with some distress:
"Ma'am, you did nothing wrong, it's him who doesn't deserve it!"

"My queen, this is a good thing for you. Now that Wang Li is gone, you can think about your own affairs. You have wasted your time for the Wang family's business over the years!"

Jiang Yuyan couldn't help crying after hearing that, and the past scenes with Ye Mingsheng flashed through her mind like a passing scene.

Under Qiao'er's persuasion, Jiang Yuyan gradually stopped crying, and her mind gradually regained its rationality. She immediately began to preach:
"I want to write him a letter!"

"Madam, what letter are you writing?"

"love letter!"

"Ah? He doesn't want you anymore!"

Jiang Yuyan shook her head and said:
"Things are different! I shouldn't have written a letter, I should have gone to Yijing in person!"

"What are you doing in Yijing, madam?"

Jiang Yuyan didn't answer, but she had a plan in her mind...
