Shao He suddenly thought of something and asked, "Does this mean Jiang Zhou has always been by Xia Zhaoshun's side?"
Pei Huaian flicked her forehead gently, "Smart. Although the Jiang Family claimed that Jiang Zhou was at the hometown taking care of the elders, she's actually always been by Xia Chaosun's side, deeply in love with him, and willingly serving as a nameless, statusless maid until Xia Zhaoshun returned to the Capital City. Only then did she go back to the Jiang Family."
After hearing this, Shao He was secretly shocked. The Jiang Family's calculations were very precise!
"Why would The Emperor favor Jiang Zhou to be the Second Prince's Consort?"
"Jiang Zhou is older and sensible. The Jiang Family has a good reputation, so it's not a disgrace to the Second Prince's status. Plus, the Jiang Family is weak and isolated, unlike the interconnected Zheng Family," Pei Huaian explained patiently.
