Part 1: A Dream Within A Dream / Rebirth of Ill Fated Concubine

Chapter 085 Prophecy

She smiled and said, "It was clearly the second sister who spoke rudely to me just now, and the second brother wanted to slap me. The eldest brother tried to stop him in a hurry, but he didn't expect that the second brother, as a man was so weak that he flew out all of a sudden." 

She said lightly and happily, "I know that the second sister is possessed by a demon, and she spoke rudely to me because of the demon, so I ignored it. After all, although Jiang Ruan is bold, I am also afraid of being contaminated by filth." 

Jiang Susu's body stiffened, and Jiang Ruan looked at Jiang Chao again: "The second brother is the same. You must exercise well in the future. After all, you are the future of the Jiang family. It is really worrying that you fly away at the touch. However, it is fortunate that your little finger is not injured."

She stood beside her tall and heroic brother with a gentle smile, which made the three people opposite angry and pale.

After an incense stick of time, Jiang Xinzhi brought Jiang Ruan back unscathed, leaving Jiang Quan in a state of rage. However, Jiang Xinzhi had made military achievements, and his temperament had changed greatly, so he was not as easy to control as before. 

Jiang Susu wanted to add fuel to the fire: "Dad, look at my elder sister..."

"Shut up!" Jiang Quan was angry, and seeing Jiang Susu's frail appearance made him even more upset. He said, "Don't walk around with the filthy air on you, go back to your own yard!" After that, he glared at Jiang Chao fiercely and left.

Jiang Susu looked at Jiang Quan in amazement as he left, but a trace of hatred flashed in Jiang Chao's eyes. The two siblings were silent, and at this moment, they hated Jiang Xinzhi and Jiang Ruan at the same time.

After a peaceful night, she woke up early the next morning. Lu Zhu came out with rose cakes and said, "The rain is getting lighter. It looks like it's going to stop."

She looked a little worried. She knew a little about what Jiang Ruan was going to do. Now that the rain had stopped, what would happen?

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly and looked out the window. The rain was fine and dense, and the water drops on the eaves were also much slower. The air became softer, sweeping away the dark clouds of the past few days. It seemed that it would be sunny soon.

Lian Qiao handed the cooked red dates and longan honey to Jiang Ruan: "It's not time yet, wait a little longer."

Jiang Ruan took a sip of the honey water and tapped the table unconsciously with her fingers.

Well, it looks like it's going to clear up soon, but in fact... the storm is coming.
…

Beside the dam of Bochang Reservoir, the reservoir manager wiped his sweat, ran around diligently, and kept flattering the precious person in front of him: "The water level has been controlled, the dam is also very stable, and the rain will stop in the next few days. It will be sunny soon. This flood control is all the credit of the Eighth Prince and Young Master Li."

Ye Li smiled gently: "It's just what I should do."

The manager's face, which was as smiling as a chrysanthemum, was even brighter when he heard this: "Your Highness is modest. The lives of the people around the reservoir are in your hands. It is a blessing for the people to have such a person like your Highness who is dedicated to the people in the Great Jin Dynasty. After this matter is over, I will report your achievements to the court without missing a word." He was quick-witted. 

Everyone knew that the current crown prince was not favoured. Now the most powerful people in the palace competing for that position were only the Eighth Prince and the Fifth Prince. Although the Fifth Prince was good, he was not as powerful as the Eighth Prince's biological mother in front of His Majesty.
