Real Empress from a Noble Family

Chapter 110 - I will be at daggers drawn with you all my life!

Chapter 110 I will be at daggers drawn with you all my life!

“Cousin, listen to me, that Jiang Yadan is absolutely talking nonsense! You know that he is not a good man. How could you believe what he said?” A tearful Qiu Yelan lifted Ruan Qingyan from the grass. Jiang Yadan’s voice shouted the already fierce battle directly into the end. If Jiang Yashuang, who also wore a silk armor, had not stopped at the crucial moment, the two would both have died tonight!

Even though, each of them had suffered a ruthless blow from the other. Now they were either vomiting blood or in a coma, losing their combat power for the while.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yelan skipped towards Ruan Qingyan on one foot without hesitation. Ruan Qingyan would not go into a coma even after spitting a few mouthfuls of blood. He felt her pulse to see if she was pregnant. He took a long breath and wanted to say something. However, he just moved his thin lips stained with blood and tilted his head!

“Cousin?!” Qiu Yelan’s voice changed into a terrified tone. Then she found that he had just fainted and felt at ease again.

On the other side, Jiang Yadan, worriedly, also woke up Jiang Yashuang, “How are you doing now? Does it matter?”

Jiang Yashuang gasped for a while and said weakly, “Ruan Qingyan’s internal strength is extremely powerful... The silk armor seems to be ruined. I am in an awful state now, and I am afraid I will have to rest for a few days.”

“You ain’t die?” Jiang Yadan immediately stretched his eyebrows and said in a low voice, “Then I’ll tell you something important....”

Jiang Yashuang asked weakly, “What?”

“Just now you and Ruan Qingyan almost died together. But Commandery Princess Ningyi ran to see her cousin, not you!” Jiang Yadan obviously clenched his teeth, “It’s just too much!”

“After all, they are blood relatives.” Jiang Yashuang sighed softly. He was disappointed in the heart, but thinking that he had no official relationship with Qiu Yelan and their emotions towards each other were still vague, he could find no reason to blame Qiu Yelan.

Jiang Yadan said angrily, “Blood relatives? If they were blood relatives, why should Ruan fight with us so desperately? Wasn’t he forcing us to give his cousin an identity?! I think they want to marry each other!”

Jiang Yashuang was weak and uncomfortable all over now. He knew that his brother was not very reliable and ignored his remark, saying, “I’m not feeling well. Would you go and find two men to help me...” He paused, “And send Ruan Qingyan away and get a tight-lipped maid to send Commandery Princess Ningyi back to her room. Don’t let anyone know what happened here tonight.”

“You allow the woman you like to value someone else more than you?” said Jiang Yadan sullenly, “You don’t see it as a shame but I do!”

Jiang Yashuang said sulkily, “If you talked nonsense again, I would probably have to die!”

“Even though the silk armor was destroyed, it protected you. You ain’t die now!” Jiang Yadan snorted. “You were beaten by the rival and were willing to watch the little Commandery Princess taking care of him.... Never have we had such a big shame! If you are still my brother, you should save the face!”

“I....” Jiang Yashuang was helpless to this brother who was full of jealousy. He was about to continue to urge him to go back and get help when Jiang Yandan, who had hoped that his brother would become a qualified man of the Jiang’s family, displayed his fairness to the younger brother and the would-be sister-in-law. Following his trap to cripple the would-be sister-in-law, he kicked Jiang Yashuang so heavily that he lost consciousness instantly.

Then, the unscrupulous brother who was skilled at performance “panicked” and shouted to Qiu Yelan, “Your Grace! Come over and have a look! My brother is dying!”

I don’t believe that you won’t come over... If so, there’s no need for such a younger sister-in-law!

Sure enough, Qiu Yelan was shocked, “What?! How could it be?!” The Jiangs will definitely take revenge on us....

So she limped to Jiang Yashuang’s side and looked. His face was pale and the blood stains on his lips were obvious, but it was clear that he was breathing smoothly. He was badly wounded but would never die.

Jiang Yadan calmly met her angry eyes and admitted frankly that he had lied to her, “My brother fainted first. Why should you see Ruan first?”

“I beg you to go to hell!” Qiu Yelan broke out completely, “Here are the four of us now. You would definitely take care of your younger brother. Why shouldn’t I see my cousin first?!”

There was simply something wrong with the guy! No need for identification, sure!

He’s always so jealous. No wonder Marquess Qin was strict with Jiang Yashuang, otherwise, the fourth branch of the Jiangs would have no hope for the future with such an eldest son.

However, Jiang Yadan said eloquently, “If you were willing to take care of my brother, I would care for Ruan on your behalf!”

“You would take care of my cousin?!” Qiu Yelan sneered, “It would be good if you didn’t take the opportunity to trample him! I know you are narrow-minded and wouldn’t let anyone go!”

“I would also trample my brother!” Jiang Yadan said proudly, “He woke up just now and now he passed out because I trampled him!”

Qiu Yelan felt for the first time in her life that she was so full of mercy. She looked at Jiang Yadan in disbelief, “He can’t be your brother! He must have been picked up from somewhere!”

“I helped him because he’s my brother!” Jiang Yadan sneered. “How did he attend to you just now when you hurt your ankle? Do you know that the only elders he has served in our family are our grandfather and grandmother? Now, he is injured. You didn’t even look at him with the corner of your eyes but ran to take care of the culprit Ruan Qingyan! Do you have conscience?”

Qiu Yelan was about to speak, but Jiang Yadan wouldn’t give her a chance. He raised his voice, “Even if you have no conscience, don’t you know that you should save face for your man in front of others?! Ruan Qingyan is not good a cousin-in-law, and you are not a good woman! My brother would have been ruined by the two of you if there had been others here. Fortunately, you can’t move over now. I think I’ll have to find time to tell Shao Yuemei to be strict with you! Otherwise...”

“Now that your brother and my cousin have stopped fighting, do you think it’s not lively enough?” Qiu Yelan now really wanted to tear him into pieces! She got hold of Jiang Yashuang’s flexible sword, pointed at Jiang Yadan and shouted, “If you dared talk nonsense again, I would kill you immediately!”

Jiang Yadan said loudly, “Dare you fight with a warrior?” I advise you to put down your sword. You are my brother’s sweetheart and I don’t wanna touch you. Naturally, I won’t indulge you. If we really fight... Haha!”

“I’m going to kill him! I’m going to kill him !” A moment later, Jiang Yadan finally got his men for the aftermath, Qiu Yelan was also sent back to her room. She climbed onto the bed and bit at the quilt fiercely. Filled with grief and indignation, she cried, “Jiang Yadan you bastard! I will be at daggers drawn with you all my life!”

In fact, it wasn’t just Qiu Yelan who was devastated by Jiang Yadan that night. The most tragic one was Jiang Yashuang, who was sending Qiu Yelan back to her room, but was stopped and beaten by Ruan Qingyan, who was eager to protect his cousin. In order to save the so-call face, he was kicked unconscious by his elder brother on the spot and was finally sent back to the yard for treatment. Waking up, he saw that the room was brightly lit and Jiang Yadan was sitting upright by the bed!

Jiang Yashuang had already calmed down. But when he saw him, he felt the urge to vomit blood again, “It’s almost dawn. It is time you went back.”

“No need to hurry. Anyway, I can take a nap tomorrow in the palace when I am on duty.” Jiang Yadan snorted. “I’m here to tell you something when you wake up....”

“Wait!” Jiang Yashuang suddenly thought, “Was grandmother startled tonight?!”

“Of course not!” Jiang Yadan, who had been influenced by Uncle Jiang Tianao and Aunt Yang and always had opinions on Madame Tao, would never go to see her except when necessary. He frowned, “Your face is completely lost tonight! How could I let others tell grandmother? I have given instructions to the guards that whoever dares to disclose a single word will get his family implicated.”

Jiang Yashuang was relieved. Jiang Yadan’s threat had always worked well because anyone who knew a bit about Jiang Yadan knew that when this dude said that he was going to kill your whole family, it was possible that even your neighbors would be slaughtered. He would never show any mercy at the last moment.

“If other family members knew that Commandery Princess Ningyi came over at night, there could be gossip around. It’s best to cover up the matter.” Jiang Yashuang thought for a second and said, “My injury was due to my carelessness in practicing! And I beg you to tell the doctor for me. Fortunately, grandfather is not living here. And grandmother, sister-in-laws and sisters do not know about martial arts and they won’t find anything unusual.”

Jiang Yadan sneered coldly, “You are still thinking about the little Commandery Princess. I want to ask you, what are you going to do with Ruan Qingyan?”

“Where is he” Jiang Yashuang frowned and asked.

“For your sake, I had him carried to the guest room.” Jiang Yadan narrowed his eyes. “In my opinion, his relationship with the little Commandery Princess is not simple. Why not take this opportunity to...” He raised his hand and made a sharp gesture in the throat!

“Why?” Jiang Yashuang sighed, “You know I am going to marry Commandery Princes Ningyi because our family owes her so much. I must be responsible for her. If she really loved Ruan Qingyan, even if I married her by force, her heart would still belong to somebody else.”

Jiang Yadan sneered, “According to what you said, you have no affection for that little Commandery Princess? Then I ask you, cousin Tao only showed admiration for you and you sent her back home. Why would you allow the little Commandery Princess to slip into your room in the middle of the night?!”

“I...” Jiang Yashuang was embarrassed and was about to explain when Jiang Yadan said again, “When the little Commandery Princess was injured, how gently did you take care of her? I saw everything behind the rockwork. If you are not fond of her, why should you do that?! Have you ever been so hospitable to any of those rich ladies?!”

Seeing Jiang Yashuang looked at him tongue-tied and didn’t know what to say, Jiang Yadan smiled conceitedly, “I’m not as good as you at learning and martial arts. But you are no match for me in love affairs! How can you hide from me?”

“Don’t you touch Ruan Qingyan! He is famous for his care for Commandery Princess Ningyi. Anyone who saw the scene tonight would have done the same. It’s just that Ruan Qingyan’s might is beyond our expectation, so we met with a big loss.” Jiang Yashuang sighed, “What’s more, he has entered Hanlin Academy at such a young age, which shows that he is a genius. The loss of such a person is also a loss to the state.”

Jiang Yadan glared at him, “You are worried that the little Commandery Princess hates you for this? Wouldn’t everything be okay if you had done that to her? All was ruined by Ruan Qingyan. But if you had been a bit sensible that time at Yunyi Restaurant, I promise she would have checked you first tonight! Don’t care who’s in her heart now. As long as she is yours, she will be on your side.”

“Is it sensible to take advantage of others’ unfavorable situation?” Jiang Yashuang said angrily, “Don’t you take such messy stuff home, OK?”

“Am I not for you?” Jiang Yadan said hatefully, “You are old enough to know about affairs between men and women! I don’t hope you will be tricked by the little Commandery Princess!”

Jiang Yashuang endured the urge to vomit blood, “I wouldn’t have been wounded tonight if you hadn’t set the trap to injure Commandery Princess Ningyi! So please, go back to Mistress Lu’s room, to your wife and your mistresses... Just don’t interfere with my affairs anymore, OK?”

“Why are you blaming me?” Jiang Yadan was very unhappy, “But how can other family members possibly help you in this kind matter? They are just having fun. Who else would help you if you don’t learn from me?!”

Jiang Yashuang was dumbfounded, “You mean all the sisters and...?!”

Realizing that the whole family were hiding from him alone, even though he had always had a good temper, he couldn’t help but get angry, “It’s my private business. What fun is there for the whole family?”
