Chapter 126

The time was fast, and it soon came three days later.

These three days, Jiang Li didn't do anything in the mansion, but just looked after Xue Huaiyuan with Ye Mingyu as before in Tongxiang. Every day, people have to go to the inn where the people of Tongxiang live to see whether the people are well.

As an important witness, Feng Yutang has been put in prison by the Ministry of punishment, and the people have to be well protected. Jiang Yuanbai did not come back to Jiang Li as usual, and he was probably distressed. If the Xue family case really involves the right Xiang Li family, Jiang Yuanbai will naturally be in a dilemma.

Jiang Li doesn't care if Jiang Yuanbai doesn't help him. As long as Jiang Yuanbai doesn't listen to Ji shuran's pillow talk, it's good to have trouble in this joint to obstruct him. Of course, Emperor Hong Xiaodi promised to personally supervise this matter. Even if Jiang Yuanbai really wanted to stop it, there was nothing he could do.

We can only wait quietly for the day of trial.

On that day, Jiang Li got up early in the morning. Emperor Hong Xiaodi said that Jiang Li must enter the palace to handle the case before the emperor. This is different from the last time when the Palace Banquet was held in the palace. This time, it must have received the attention of King Cheng and Princess Yongning, as well as Shen Yurong. Princess Yongning is crazy. She may not dare to attack her in the palace, but she cannot carry weapons when entering the palace. It's the dagger sent by Jiang Jingrui. It's not easy to bring it into the Palace this time.

At this time, Jiang Li envied Ji Peng's fan instead. You know, Ji Heng can take his fan into the palace with a swagger. The fan is gorgeous and exquisite. Who knows it is a sharp weapon that can kill people between opening and closing.

The more beautiful things are, the more dangerous they are, just like the owner of a fan.

Just thinking about it, tong'er smiled behind him and said, "girl, comb your hair and see how it is?"

Jiang Li looked at herself in the mirror. Tong'er was dexterous, but Jiang Li only let her comb a simple black bun, which was covered with black yarn, without any accessories. But it made her face white, her eyebrows beautiful, and more refined.

Tong'er, who originally thought Jiang Li was wearing too much, looked at her and was satisfied. "The girl is really beautiful. She looks good with any hair."

Snow White came with his cloak, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "girl, is it too plain to wear like this? Will the master be angry?"

Jiang Li took the snow-white cloak and put it on her body, saying, "nothing. Only in this way can I show my attention to the Xue family case."

She turned around, white and black, beautiful and inexplicable, and said, "let's go."

Jiang Yuanbai's carriage has been waiting outside. As a courtier, Jiang Yuanbai also watched the trial of this case together. But the family members don't have to enter the palace together. As soon as Jiang Li came out of the yard, he saw Ji shuran and Jiang Youyao.

Ji shuran paused, smiled and said to Jiang Li, "pear, have you entered the palace so early?"

"It seems that the second sister can't wait to go to the palace to rehabilitate the Xue family," Jiang Youyao sneered. "I don't know. There is a female gentleman who wants to be the master of Qingtian in our family? Don't you want to bring disaster to the family?"

"Young Yao!" Ji shuran stopped Jiang Youyao's words and apologized to Jiang Li, "you Yao is joking. Don't take pear to heart."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "nothing." She leaned over and passed their mother and daughter and walked away without saying a word. However, the more she is like this, Jiang Youyao looks more angry. I feel more and more that Jiang Li doesn't pay attention to her. He stamped his feet secretly and said, "Mom, look at her!"

"It doesn't matter." Ji shuran's smile also faded. Looking at Jiang Li's back, she said faintly, "let's see how arrogant she can be?"

Jiang Li and tong'er continued to walk forward. After a period of time without seeing Jiang Youyao, Jiang Youyao became more and more stupid. I don't know if it's because the marriage with Zhou Yanbang turned yellow, Jiang Youyao's impatience will show on her face. Ji shuran sent someone to attack him in Tongxiang, but Jiang Li didn't forget it. Originally, she thought it was best to be safe, but now it's impossible.

After finishing the Xue family case in front of her, she must finish it with Ji shuran.

Only by cleaning up these troublesome imps can she really give a go at Princess Yongning, Shen Yurong and Cheng Wang.

At the gate of the mansion, Jiang Yuanbai's carriage had stopped.

In the carriage behind, ye Mingyu leaned out of it and whispered to Jiang Li, "ah Li!"

Jiang Li replied with a smile, "uncle."

Ye Mingyu and Xue Huaiyuan are in a carriage. Today, Xue Huaiyuan also has to go to the temple. Jiang Li was afraid of any mistakes in the middle, so she wanted Xue Huaiyuan to appear under the eyes of Yongning, the murderer. Jiang Li was afraid of what means Yongning would use. Now knowing that Princess Yongning is the mastermind behind it, ye Mingyu also believes that this matter is of great importance, and agrees to stay with Xue Huaiyuan and will not give Princess Yongning any chance to start.

Jiang Li got on the carriage.

Tong'er lifted the carriage and was almost blinded by the wind and snow outside, saying, "girl, the snow outside is so heavy."

Jiang Li glanced out, but it was the same. Beiyan has been snowy in winter. Today is also very big. The goose feather and snow are blowing obliquely, and the sky and the earth must be connected.

"Just wait for the wind to come." Jiang Li laughed.

When the wind comes and blows away chaos, all the truth will come out.

……

In fact, the road to the palace is not far, but Jiang Li feels that today has been a long time.

She waited for this moment for too long. When she was xuefangfei, she waited until she died. Now the grievances of the Xue family are finally fished out of the bottomless water. If you see a little sky light, you will tear open a false corner and reveal the truth. Jiang Li felt that even in the cold winter, her blood became hot.

After some time, the carriage stopped.

There was a voice outside: "Sir, here we are."

Jiang Li got out of the carriage. Jiang Yuanbai was already standing outside the carriage. He looked at the daughter with a complex expression. Sometimes he felt guilty and sometimes angry about the daughter, but now he was more confused and strange, and there was a kind of powerlessness. He can't control Jiang Li's thoughts, and even her actions many times - Jiang Li can always find other ways to achieve her own goals.

"I'm going to see the emperor first." Jiang Yuanbai said to her, "you and your third uncle have to see the adult of the Ministry of punishment. The servant will take you." After a pause, he added, "you... Be careful."

Jiang Yuanbai also realized that the complexity behind the Xue family case would put Jiang Li in danger. As Jiang Li said, the person behind this matter was really Li Zhongnan, the right prime minister. Li Zhongnan must take this evil spirit out of Jiang Li. How many wronged souls in the palace, Jiang Li is his flesh and blood after all.

"I know, thank you, Dad." Jiang Li said with a smile, "don't worry, Dad. With Uncle Mingyu with me, nothing will happen."

She trusted the Ye family very much. Jiang Yuanbai felt a little uncomfortable in his Inexplicable heart. He left first without saying more.

Ye Mingyu helped Xue Huaiyuan out of the carriage and said, "what did your father say?" Jiang Yuanbai doesn't like Ye Mingyu, and ye Mingyu also doesn't like Jiang Yuanbai, so he tries to avoid talking to Jiang Yuanbai. If he doesn't have to do so, ye Mingyu doesn't even want to fight Jiang Yuanbai face to face on weekdays.

"Nothing, just let us be careful."

"Is there anyone else in the palace attacking us?" Ye Mingyu followed nervously, "isn't it? Who dares to be so bold at the foot of the emperor?"

"It is necessary to guard against people." Jiang Li said, "but there should be no danger. Let's go first." In fact, she was not careless, but on second thought, there should also be Ji Heng's people in the palace. Since Ji Heng promised his life that he would take it himself, he would not let others kill him. In a way, he was the most reliable bodyguard.

Even if there is really any danger, Ji Hong will also appear.

Ye Mingyu didn't say anything when he heard the speech, and walked in with Jiang Li and the palace man who led the way.

Xue Huaiyuan's mind today, that is, a five - or six-year-old child, looks left and right from time to time on the way to the palace, and is very novel to the surrounding environment. With Jiang Li, he was not very afraid. It was the first time for ye Mingyu to enter the palace, but he tried to show that he didn't care and was very stable.

Zhou Dezhao of the Ministry of punishment, Lord Zhou, is in charge of the case. Jiang Li will serve as a witness to meet with Lord Zhou together with Ye Mingyu.

The palace man who led the way was very tight lipped. Ye Mingyu wanted to find out some news from his mouth, and he was helpless after half a day. Wait until a line outside the palace, the palace man stopped. From inside came a bodyguard like man, looked at Jiang Li, and said, "Miss Jiang, Lord Zhou is waiting in the room."

Jiang Li and ye Mingyu looked at each other and entered the room.

Zhou Dezhao is similar to Jiang Yuanbai in age. He is thin, with a Chinese face and a square chin. At first glance, he looks resolute. He looked at Jiang Li and ye Mingyu, and glanced at Xue Huaiyuan, who was playing with the rattle in his hand. Without saying a word of nonsense, he opened the door and said, "Miss Jiang, the emperor has shown me the folder of the Xue family case. Do you know who is involved in this case?"

"Princess Yongning." Jiang Li's calm way.

Zhou Dezhao was stunned. He didn't seem to expect Jiang Li to say so calmly, as if he was not a princess of a country, but a small people on the street. When Emperor Hong Xiaodi said this to him personally, Zhou Dezhao was also surprised. You know, in the court, he has seen many dirty and strange things, as well as many pending cases of people suing officials, but this is the first time that the first daughter suing the current princess.

"The evidence in the hands of Miss Jiang Er is conclusive," Zhou Dezhao said. "The emperor also wants to rehabilitate the people of Tongxiang, but the case is complicated because it involves the princess. Miss Jiang Er should think clearly."

"There is no turning back," Jiang Li smiled. "The emperor personally supervised the case, and Jiang Li was too grateful. She will certainly do her best to let the truth of the case come out."

The four words "the truth comes out of the water" made Jiang Li bite especially hard.

"But this case is not impeccable," Zhou Dezhao said. "If the person behind the scenes is really related to the princess, this case alone cannot really solve the source. On the contrary, it will put Miss Jiang ER in danger. Even so, Miss Jiang Er will not change her mind?"

"Lord Zhou doesn't have to test me." Jiang Li said with a smile, "if I have the intention of retreating, I don't have to do these things. Besides, the emperor personally supervised it, and I still have something to keep. Isn't it a crime of bullying the king?"

Zhou Dezhao is an honest and upright official, but he is not a person who does not know how to adapt to this position. Remind Jiang Li that this case will not bring down Princess Yongning, but will make Princess Yongning hate her. I don't know whether it's because of temptation or kindness, so remind. But Jiang Li thought that it was useless to say these things.

Seeing Jiang Li's determination, Zhou Dezhao was not able to say anything more. Jiang Li is also Jiang Yuanbai's daughter at least. He also sells Jiang Yuanbai's three thin noodles. This case must offend Princess Yongning, no doubt, but the Emperor himself said that he had no second choice. In a way, he was the same as Jiang Li.

"All right." Zhou Dezhao nodded and said, "Miss Jiang, tidy up. We'll go to the hall later." After a pause, he added, "Princess Yongning will not go to the temple today, but his highness King Cheng will be there."

Cheng Wang is Yongning's brother. It is possible for Jiang Li to be made difficult by Cheng Wang.

"No matter who he is," Ye Mingyu couldn't listen anymore. "He wouldn't do too much in front of the emperor."

Jiang Li and Zhou Dezhao didn't speak, and ye Mingyu naturally didn't know that he was far away from the temple, but the power and arrogance of becoming king didn't happen overnight. To hide his strength and bide his time, Emperor Hong Xiao had to avoid his sharp edge. He pretended to be brother and brother, but in fact, the undercurrent surged.

Jiang Li sighed gently, and she didn't know whether she should sympathize with the current emperor of Beiyan, not to mention that there were many people eyeing his throne. His most trusted minister, Ji Heng, also had his own plan.

"Lord Zhou, let's go." Jiang Li put away her thoughts and said.

Zhou Dezhao nodded.

Xue Huaiyuan couldn't immediately follow Jiang Li to the temple, for fear that his unconsciousness would disturb Shengjia, so he had to be watched by someone, and he couldn't face the saint until the time was ripe. So only Jiang Li Ye Mingyu followed Zhou Dezhao to the Jinluan hall. Estimating the time, it is time for all the ministers who came to watch the trial today to arrive one after another.

When approaching the Jinluan hall, some ministers saw them, and they all cast their eyes on Jiang Li.

Now Jiang Li is also a popular person in Yanjing city. No one who is an official at home doesn't know Jiang Li's name. Jiang Li's behavior is the first among the noble women in Yanjing. It happened that everyone still couldn't guess her mind. Miss Hao didn't do it, but was involved in this storm. She threw her head and showed her face outside just for an irrelevant person, and I didn't know what it was for.

Walking, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Lord Zhou."

Zhou Dezhao and Jiang Li turned around and saw a young man walking slowly from the back of the garden.

This man is dressed in luxurious brocade clothes, with extraordinary bearing. His entourage doesn't look like ordinary people, but his appearance is handsome, but his eyes are deep and smart. When looking at people, people feel a bit gloomy.

Although he called Zhou Dezhao in his mouth, he stared at Jiang Li directly and looked at her without scruple. Ye Mingyu on one side was a little angry. How could he stare at a little girl like this.

Zhou Dezhao bowed and said, "Your Highness Cheng has been seen by your highness."

Jiang Li also bowed to salute.

What Zhou Dezhao said is now a prophecy, and it has come true so soon. Jiang Li didn't want to meet King Cheng here, but she didn't expect to meet King Cheng here before entering the Jinluan hall.

Cheng Wang said, "this is Miss Jiang er." He smiled, "I saw Miss Jiang er's demeanor on the calibration field a few days ago, but it was charming. I never thought I hadn't seen her for many days. Miss Jiang er's ability grew stronger and stronger, which really surprised me every day."

What he said is really a little frivolous. Ye Mingyu's eyes showed anger. Jiang Li, fearing that he might cause trouble here, said to Zhou Dezhao, "Lord Zhou, you go into the temple with my uncle first. I'll say a few words to his highness King Cheng and come soon."

"How can this work?" Before Zhou Dezhao spoke, ye Mingyu objected first. He said, "we should go together." Cheng Wang is not a good man at first sight. Ye Mingyu also heard that this time it is Princess Yongning. Cheng Wang is Yongning's brother. Can you vent your anger for Yongning. And what Cheng Wang said just now is completely arrogant. He was really worried that Jiang Li and Cheng Wang would stay alone.

Zhou Dezhao was also a little surprised. At this time, Jiang Li didn't hurry to find a way to avoid King Cheng, but even took the initiative to welcome him. Isn't she afraid of King Cheng?

Jiang Li was indeed not afraid. She looked calm and calmly explained to Ye Mingyu: "nothing is wrong, uncle. His highness Cheng and I are just a few steps away from the Jinluan hall. There are people coming and going here, and his highness Cheng and I will not be in danger. Just have something to say, come in soon. Uncle, you are here, but you will delay the affairs of the Lord of the same week, don't you?"

What else did ye Mingyu want to say? Zhou Dezhao had already bowed his hands and said, "in this case, the officer will leave first." He motioned with Ye Mingyu, who hesitated a little. Seeing Jiang Li winking at him, he paused, unwilling to enter the hall with Zhou Dezhao.

Jiang Li always has her own ideas when doing things. Ye Mingyu is also afraid of being rash, but disrupted Jiang Li's plan.

After the two of Ye Mingyu left, Cheng Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at Jiang Li with deep eyes.

What Jiang Li said to Ye Mingyu to reassure him was actually said to him. Here is a few steps away from the Jinluan hall. There are people coming and going. I'm bound to be unable to fight Jiang Li. It was precisely at this point that she had the courage to speak alone with herself here.

"Miss Jiang Er is brave," said King Cheng. "Jiang Shoufu is steady. I didn't expect his daughter to be quite brave. I admire him."

Jiang Li smiled, "Your Highness, it's ridiculous."

Unexpectedly, I received it in a big way.

Cheng Wang was stunned, suddenly burst out laughing and said, "Miss Jiang Er is always surprising. I don't know why she is always so ready. Is it true that today's matter will inevitably involve Yongning, so she is so confident?"

Jiang Li suddenly looked up and stared at Cheng Wang, with a heart sinking slightly.

King Cheng has his own power in the palace, and Jiang Li has long known it. After all, people who aim at that position, how can they not place chess pieces everywhere, but the folds they write should be very hidden. King Cheng knows it now. It can be seen that emperor Hong Xiaodi has king Cheng's Eyeliner around him. And to be able to contact such a hidden thing, the eyeliner should be the people close to Emperor Hong Xiao.

"What is Miss Jiang Er thinking? How does Wang know?" Cheng Wang went further, suddenly lowered his voice and said viciously, "there's nothing in the world that I don't know. It's naive for the two girls to try to hide things from me under my eyes. Your father didn't dare to do so. You're a yellow haired girl, and you're not timid."

When he doesn't laugh, the gloom on his face is not a disguise, which is really frightening. However, if Jiang Li is the real second Miss Jiang, or if another girl comes here, she will be really scared by King Cheng. But it happened to be Jiang Li. She even estimated in her heart that although Cheng Wang was quite powerful, he was similar in nature to his mother's concubine, Princess Liu. She really didn't know how to restrain, was too arrogant, and was arrogant, so it was inevitable that she would suffer in the future. From the perspective of mental planning alone, it is not as powerful as the weak emperor Hong Xiao.

Seeing that Jiang Li didn't like it, he showed a look of panic. Cheng Wang was even more unhappy. He said, "Miss Jiang Er is brave, but I don't know how long this courage can last? Do you know that even your father can't protect you if you offend the king!"

"Your Highness King Cheng." Just then, a voice suddenly came from a distance.

Jiang Li and King Cheng looked at the voice together, but not far away, a young man came quickly and saluted King Cheng respectfully again: "Your Majesty has seen his highness."

Jiang Li was stunned. This person was not someone else, but YeShiJie.

Now ye Shijie is the new minister of household affairs, wailang. Because he was appointed by the emperor, he seems to be related to the first auxiliary Jiang family by marriage. In addition, he himself is a capable person, but he did a good job. Among the rising stars in Chaozhong, everyone is willing to sell him a face, and Emperor Hong Xiaodi also appreciates him.

Jiang Li frowned slightly. She didn't expect Ye Shijie to stand up at this time. Ye Shijie has just entered the dynasty. It would be terrible if he was embarrassed by King Cheng because of this. She is a daughter's family in the end. If King Cheng wants to really catch her, he can only start from the inner house. Jiang Li can deal with it more carefully. But ye Shijie is still young as an official. How can he compare with those experienced and experienced people? As long as Cheng Wang's men make difficulties in official affairs, it is possible to make ye Shijie stumble inexplicably at that time.

This young man is very good, but he is not old. He is still a little ambitious, just like Xue Zhao in the past.

"Oh? Help is coming." King Cheng looked at Jiang Li and ye Shijie, and said, "the cousin of Miss Jiang ER and Miss Jiang Er seem to have a good relationship. Member ye," his eyes fixed firmly on Ye Shijie, "if you were smarter, you wouldn't jump out in such a hurry today. It's a pity," he seemed to regret, "I really can't bear to lose such a material as you."

As soon as this word came out, Jiang Li's heart tightened, and Cheng Wang clearly stared at Ye Shijie!

No matter what his heart was, ye Shijie still looked respectful on his face, saying, "Your Highness is joking. It is the blessing of your highness to be respected by your highness."

Although he is young, he is not the angry man who will argue with people about a painting in the street. In the face of provocation, he also knows to avoid his edge and pretend to be crazy.

King Cheng smiled without anger and said, "you two are not afraid of this king. This king will make you regret..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a chuckle. Someone's voice floated from behind the garden, with a casual laziness and a little smile, and said, "Hey, isn't this Cheng Wang?"

Someone is coming again.

Jiang Li heard the sound, but she was happy in her heart. She looked up. In the ice and snow, the man was red, and there was no dim brilliance in the deep palace with heavy walls.

His clothes are dazzling, and his appearance is Soul-catching. The guards around him hold an umbrella for him, so the snowflakes won't float on him. His voice was low and charming, but he had a kind of schadenfreude to watch the excitement, saying, "what's the noise in the morning?"

It's Suguo Gongji.

Cheng Wang was also stunned. After a long time, he said to Ji Heng, "Duke su."

According to the ceremony, Ji Hong should also salute with him. But Ji Heng never saluted him, and King Cheng did not dare to force him. In the heart of King Cheng, Ji Heng was more afraid than emperor Hong Xiao. He had tried desperately to pull Ji Heng to his camp, but he failed. However, Ji Heng did not participate in the camp of Hong Xiaodi and the Jiang family. It is precisely because he has always maintained a neutral attitude that King Cheng has been on guard against him and will not take the initiative to attack him.

He didn't want to cause himself unexpected trouble.

"I heard you say that you are dead and alive. Why, someone is going to be unlucky?" His hands were folded in his sleeves, and he didn't care between his eyebrows and eyes, and asked with a smile.

Jiang Li saluted him and said, "it was the minister's daughter and cousin who angered his highness Cheng. His highness Cheng was angry."

At this moment, both Cheng Wang and ye Shijie looked at Jiang Li.

What's going on? Jiang Li actually provoked discord in front of Cheng Wang? And who is the object of his estrangement, Ji Heng! Su Guogong, who only knew how to watch the play, unexpectedly contained a trace of imperceptible and soft complaints, as if Ji Heng was an elder who came to mediate and a lord Qingtian who could make decisions for Jiang Li.

Is she crazy?

Cheng Wang sneered, "Miss Jiang Er is quite able to shirk. I'm afraid you're not annoying me, but offending me. In the world, no one who offends me has a good end."

He also did not shy away from Ji Chen's presence. No matter how moody she was, she did not dare to treat a prince. He said this in front of Ji Heng's face, as if he wanted to test Ji Heng's reaction to see what the relationship between Ji Heng and Jiang Li was.

Ji Heng's beautiful Phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his lips evoked a shallow smile. He said lightly: "children are not sensible, why should Cheng Wang haggle over every ounce, forget it."

Did he... Persuade peace?

Ye Shijie and Cheng Wang stared at Ji Heng inconceivably. Ji Heng's apologetic apology really showed his attitude. He was defending Jiang Li!

Jiang Li also stared. She deliberately brought Ji Hong in, and also wanted to use Ji Hong to scare Cheng Wang, but she never thought that Ji Hong would speak for herself in front of Cheng Wang!

This person is used to acting on occasion, which is the occasional true feelings in dealing, and also a glance. The moon is over, and it is day again, so they take their own disguises.

But he actually did it at this time.
