GTB Chapter 217

Chapter 219: Definitely Won’t Disturb Your Residence

Jiang Jiuchu raised her hand to cover her faintly aching chest. The past half-year of companionship felt like a dream of fleeting glory, short and insubstantial.

She slowly picked up the divorce papers on the desk, got up, and walked towards the outside of the house.

The greenery of the Chlorophytum under the eaves of the main house saw Jiang Jiuchu walk out of the study. Her eyes were red and she looked lost. Green Lo immediately greeted her, “Miss, what’s wrong?”

Jiang Jiuchu’s wandering gaze focused on the two of them, and she said calmly, “Pack up, call a carriage, we’re going back to the Jiang residence.”

After she finished speaking, she brushed past the two of them and walked towards the main house.

Green Lo and Green Intent looked at each other in surprise, and quickly followed into the room to ask, “Miss, do you mean going back to the Jiang residence? It’s almost the New Year, are we still going back?”

Jiang Jiuchu raised her hand and held up the divorce papers in her hand, “Yes, this is not our home after all.”

She walked towards the dressing mirror, put down the divorce papers in her hand, and opened the drawer, only to find that the things in front of her seemed to have no need to be packed.

Green Lo and Green Intent were stunned for a moment, then quickly walked to the dressing mirror, staring in disbelief at the divorce papers on the table.

“Why? Why does His Royal Highness want to divorce Miss? How could he divorce Miss?”

“He is the Crown Prince, he has plenty of reasons. Hurry up and pack your things, I can take care of this myself.”

Jiang Jiuchu got up and walked to the wardrobe, taking out all of her clothes from inside.

Green Lo and Green Intent hurried forward, “Miss, this servant doesn’t have anything valuable to pack, let me help Miss pack first.”

Green Lo and Green Intent suppressed the shock in their hearts, helped Jiang Jiuchu move the box in the corner, and folded the clothes one by one into it.

Seeing that Green Intent had finished folding the clothes, she went to the dressing mirror again, intending to pack jewelry and ornaments, and said:

“Just simply pack the jewelry and ornaments that came from the Jiang residence. Don’t bring any of the ones we bought later, and don’t bring any rouge or powder.”

As she spoke, she seemed to remember something, and took off the jade bracelet on her wrist and placed it on the table.

Then, her gaze fell on the pink gemstone ring on her hand. After hesitating for a while, she didn’t take it off after all. After all, this was his dowry to her, not a gift from him.

She looked at the clothes piled up in front of the box, thinking that if they weren’t all her personal belongings that she had worn, she wouldn’t want to take a single item.

The mistress and servants were very fast, and in less than half an hour, they had packed everything up.

Green Lo, who ran out to call a carriage, stepped into the house, followed by two young and strong servants, “Miss, the carriage is ready.”

“Okay.” Jiang Jiuchu nodded, got up from the round table, and stepped out of the threshold. Just as the group walked into the courtyard, they ran into Mu Qing, who was coming in from outside the courtyard.

Mu Qing looked at Green Lo and Green Intent carrying large and small bags, as well as the servants carrying boxes behind them, and stepped forward in confusion to ask, “Crown Princess, what is this…?”

“I have divorced His Royal Highness, don’t call me Crown Princess anymore.”

After Jiang Jiuchu finished speaking, she walked straight forward.

Mu Qing’s expression shook, and after a moment of Stupid, she quickly raised her foot and followed behind Jiang Jiuchu.

Jiang Jiuchu stopped, “Mu Qing, what are you doing?”

Hearing this, Mu Qing immediately walked to Jiang Jiuchu’s side, knelt down on one knee and cupped her hands, “Miss, since this servant has followed you, then I am your person. Wherever you go, this servant will go.”

“Once our Shadow Guards have served another master, there is no possibility of returning.”

Jiang Jiuchu was stunned for a moment, then said, “You are His Royal Highness’s person. Even if you can’t be a Shadow Guard, there are other things for you to do, such as… protecting His Royal Highness’s future Crown Princess.”

As she spoke, she was about to raise her foot and walk forward, but was stopped by Mu Qing, who opened her arms.

Mu Qing retracted her outstretched arms, changed from kneeling on one knee to kneeling on both knees, and begged with her head bowed:

“Please take this servant with you. A servant does not serve two masters. Moreover, since this servant has followed Miss, others will definitely be wary and afraid that they will not treat this servant sincerely.”

Jiang Jiuchu lowered her eyes and looked at Mu Qing kneeling in the snow, “But you are ultimately the Crown Prince’s person. I can’t take you away, and I’m not qualified to take you away.”

“No, when His Royal Highness gave this servant to you, he said that from now on, no matter what the situation, this servant’s master is you.”

As Mu Qing spoke, she quickly knocked her forehead on the snow, “If Miss doesn’t take this servant away, this servant will only have two paths: either death or being sold off. Please take this servant with you.”

“Don’t knock yourself.” Jiang Jiuchu bent down to help Mu Qing up, and said seriously:

“Since that’s the case, then you can go back to the Jiang residence with me, but you must remember your words, your master is me, not the Crown Prince.”

Hearing this, Mu Qing happily assured, “This servant swears that this servant’s master is only Miss. If there is any disloyalty, may I be struck by lightning.”

“Alright, alright, let’s go!” Jiang Jiuchu’s tone softened a bit, and she raised her foot and continued forward.

“Green Intent, Green Lo, I’ll help you carry them. I’m strong.” Mu Qing had a good eye and took all the remaining packages in Green Lo and Green Intent’s hands into her own hands.

“Okay, thank you.” Green Lo and Green Intent didn’t refuse either. Although Mu Qing didn’t talk much, she had a good relationship with them.

“Miss Jiang~”

Just as the group was about to step out of the Prince’s mansion gate, they were stopped by Mu Feng behind them.

“Miss Jiang, this is what the master asked this subordinate to give you.”

Mu Feng walked forward and handed a stack of silver notes in his hand to Jiang Jiuchu.

“The master said that the cash value of Miss Jiang’s dowry is about this much. He told you to take it, so you don’t have to send someone to the residence to carry the dowry. The master doesn’t like trouble.”

Jiang Jiuchu looked at the stack of silver notes in front of her, paused for a moment, then slowly reached out to take it, and said in a calm tone:

“Tell your master to rest assured that not a single member of my Jiang family will disturb your residence.”

After she finished speaking, she turned around and quickly left the mansion gate.

As she stepped out of the mansion gate, the vermilion gate behind her closed as well, looking so resolute in Jiang Jiuchu’s eyes.

Was she kicked out of the house? It was really ridiculous.

She pulled out a bitter smile from the corner of her mouth, and tears once again uncontrollably rolled down from the bottom of her eyes.

Seeing this, Green Lo and Green Intent wanted to comfort her, but didn’t know how to open their mouths for a while.

This was too sudden for them. If they hadn’t seen the divorce papers with their own eyes, and what Mu Feng had just said, they would never have believed it.

The carriage drove away from the gate of the Seventh Prince’s mansion, getting farther and farther away in the heavy snow, until it could no longer be seen clearly.

Mu Feng looked up at Shí Yan, who stood tall on the high wall, and persuaded, “Master, let’s go back!”

In the carriage, Jiang Jiuchu couldn’t suppress the sadness in her heart, and tears kept rolling down.

Green Lo on the side took out a new handkerchief and handed it to Jiang Jiuchu, her voice choked, “Miss, don’t cry.”

Green Intent and Mu Qing couldn’t help but redden their eyes when they saw this.

Jiang Jiuchu took the handkerchief handed over by Green Lo, wiped away her tears, and then pushed open the car window to look outside, as if she wanted the cold wind to resist the sadness in her heart.

Looking at the heavy snow, her thoughts returned to the day she got married. Although one was the warm spring sun, and the other was the winter snow.

But she seemed to be coming and going while crying. Sure enough, it was unlucky to shed tears when she got married.
