Chapter 1
Chapter 1 — The King Saved His Sister, And I Walked Straight To The Royal Palace
He is approving the chapter. He raised his head and looked at me. His eyes were gentle. He does not have the stubbornness and arrogance of Bui Huyen. There is also no sinister and gloomy look of Second Prince Bui Duc.
“Giang Tai Nhan excuses himself.”
“No need to be polite.”
I perform the ceremony.
“Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
I said respectfully.
“Yesterday, I received the book of poetry given to me by His Highness.”
“Really gained a lot.”
I present a picture of apricot bamboo painted by myself.
“This painting is just a little bit of my concubine's sincerity.”
Bui Triet received the scroll. He opened it. He saw bamboo branches and apricot blossoms in the painting. He also saw the question:
“The wind is gone, the water is not rising.”
There was a flash of surprise in his eyes.
“Giang Tai Nhan has very sophisticated painting skills.”
“The meaning of this painting is also extremely profound.”
He understood what I meant. I look at you.
“His Royal Highness is Lord Tru.”
"Carrying the burden on the shoulders of the people."
"The situation is complicated, there are dangers on all sides."
"I hope that your highness can maintain an attitude like a cool breeze, calming all storms."
I directly express my stance. I didn't come here to compete for favor. I'm here to help you. Bui Triet put down the painting scroll. He looked at me attentively.
“Giang Tai Nhan, what do you mean by this?”
Low voice. He is testing us.
"The day before, on the big wedding day, the Bui Vuong family broke off the engagement."
“I ask myself to enter the palace.”
“Not because of temporary anger.”
"And because I know clearly that Bui Vuong is a passionate person."
“He is not a worthy spouse.”
“Even more so, he is not a suitable person for the position of Commander.”
Bui Triet's face became serious. He does not interrupt me. He quietly listened to me continue speaking.
“The Bui Vuong family is secretly colluding with the Second Prince.”
“There is an attempt to usurp the Crown Prince position.”
"My concubine entered the palace, hoping to be able to devote a little effort for His Highness."
I brought up the stories of my previous life, like how Bui Huyen colluded with Bui Duc. Step by step how to control the dynasty. In the end, how did the bow turn out? All cleverly revealed to him in a flexible way. I cannot say the words "rebirth". We can only use "hunches" or "things we've heard" to cover up. Bui Triet looked at me in surprise.
“Do you know what you're saying?”
“Scheming to usurp the throne is a serious crime!”
“I know.”
“But every word I said is true.”
“Your Highness can secretly investigate and verify.”
Bui Triet was silent. He walked back and forth. Seems to be thinking about something.
“What evidence do you have?”
His eyes were extremely sharp.
“Currently I have no evidence.”
“But your highness can start the investigation from the recent movements of the Bui Vuong family.”
“He secretly contacted the generals guarding the border.”
“Promises to give them great benefits.”
Bui Triet suddenly stopped walking. He looked towards us.
“Is this true?”
Border generals. That is Bui Huyen's core military force. If this is true. It also means that his treason plot has been confirmed. I nodded.
“It's absolutely true.”
An extremely solemn look appeared on Bui Triet's face. In his eyes was contemplation.
“Giang Tai Nhan.”
Bui Triet said.
“If what you say not wrong.”
“So she saved this palace.”
“Why do you want to help this palace?”
I perform the ceremony again.
“Your Highness is kind.”
“This is the hope of Dai Viem country.”
“My concubine vows to be faithful.”
I do not mention the grudges of my previous life. I'm just talking about society. I'm just talking about great causes. Bui Triet reached out to help me up.
"Jiang Tai, today's words must not be spread out."
“This palace will immediately send someone to investigate.”
"If it is verified that it is true, this palace will definitely not disappoint you."
I leave the Eastern Palace. We understand very clearly in our hearts. Bui Triet has begun to trust me. This is just the first step. My goal. Is to thoroughly defeat Bui Huyen. Leaving him forever unable to raise his head again. We walked out of the main gate of the Eastern Palace. I just walked out. Immediately I saw Bui Huyen aggressively walking towards me. Behind him is a close guard. Obviously he was waiting here.
“Jiang Van Tinh, you actually dare to seduce the Crown Prince!”
Bui Huyen roared. His shout echoed throughout the palace. Anger burned in his eyes. I stopped.
