Chapter 219

After returning to Jiang Fu from the Ye family, Jiang Li was smiling all the time.

Tong'er and Bai Xue are puzzled. They don't know how Jiang Li is in such a good mood today. They think it may be the reason why they haven't seen Ye Mingyu and ye Shijie for a long time. Jiang Li has always had a good relationship with this uncle.

After returning to Jiang's house and meeting old lady Jiang, Jiang Li returned to Fangfei garden. When she got back, she closed the door and sat at her desk.

On the wall in front of the desk, there was a picture that Xue Huaiyuan gave her on her birthday before. At that time, Xue Huaiyuan didn't know that she was Ali. But looking at this painting now, it's like my father is looking at me, which makes me feel extra reassured. Speaking of it, the last birthday, everyone else gave gifts, but Ji Heng didn't. Jiang Li thought about it, and about Ji Heng also knew that it was not her real birthday, so she didn't give it.

She unconsciously excused Ji Heng and was soon discovered by herself. Jiang Li shook her head. Today she was really happy. Her father and a Zhao were beside her, and they met each other. This is a blessing in misfortune. Since knowing that Xue Zhao is still alive, Jiang Li has pinched herself more than once, for fear that all this is just a dream. Now, it seems that God is still treating her well.

Zhao's words also made her no longer have any concerns. The Jiang family hoped that she could marry Yin Zhili, but they thought Ji Heng was not a good candidate. It seems that when the whole world denies Ji Heng, at least ah Zhao is still on her side. Zhao encouraged her and agreed with her. It seemed that she didn't have any bad views on Ji Heng, and Jiang Li's heart was relieved.

Encouragement from family is always the most precious.

She seemed to take off all her troubles before, and then it was a good time that had been waiting for a long time. She even slept with a smile.

Just like this, more than ten days passed.

Another thing happened in Yanjing city. Li Zhongnan, the right minister, was found to be colluding with King Cheng. Li Zhongnan fled overnight with his two sons and was caught by the city garrison. He was killed by the sword when he fought tenaciously. Emperor Hong Xiaodi issued a death order, thoroughly investigated and severely punished the people related to the Li family. As for the Li family, hundreds of people were pulled out and beheaded.

So far, Youxiang, who was once famous and almost rivaled the yuan family, disappeared in the history of Beiyan. As the right-hand man of Cheng Wang, the ending of the Li family is also expected. Unexpectedly, Emperor Hong Xiaodi showed his determination and indifference. People realize that the humble little emperor has now become a truly unfathomable emperor.

Jiang Li was reading a book in the house when she learned the news. She has nothing to do these days. In addition to occasionally visiting relatives in the Ye family, she looks at writing in the Jiang family. Now reading and writing are different from the original, and her mood is really relaxed.

When the Li family was beheaded, tong'er and the servants of the Jiang family went to have a look together. When they came back, they said to Jiang Li, "ah, those people's blood dyed the ground red. It's really terrible."

Snow White heard the words, disapproved and said, "who told them to hide evil intentions, this is their own fault."

Jiang Li smiled. This time, Jiang Yuanbai removed a serious problem. However, it is not easy to relax. At the beginning, the Jiang family, Cheng Wang and Hong Xiaodi had a three-way situation. Now the Cheng Wang faction has completely collapsed and the balance of the situation has been broken. How do you know whether Hong Xiaodi will turn around to deal with the Jiang family? Although in the event of becoming king this time, Emperor Hong Xiaodi can probably see that Jiang Yuanbai has the heart but not the courage to rebel, but the emperor's heart is unpredictable. What if he wants to doubt Jiang Yuanbai?

In addition, Jiang Yuanbai also had the idea of marrying the Yin family.

Thinking of the Yin family, Jiang Li stopped turning the book in her hand and sighed. If the Yan family didn't contribute to the trouble about Youxiang, Jiang Li wouldn't believe it. On the one hand, Yin Zhan had to deal with the Chengwang faction, on the other hand, it was to clean up and right phase. The yuan family could also make friends with the Yin family from now on, and their marriage would be more guaranteed.

But Jiang Li didn't worry much about the marriage. Because Ji Chen said that day, he only let her take care of it in the house, and left the rest to him. Jiang Li believed that he could really deal with this matter, at least not let her and Yin Zhili really get married.

In midsummer, it is extremely hot. Except at night, I almost dare not go out in the daytime. The sun seems to take people's lives, and people are dazzled. Snow said, reheat for more than ten days for a while, that is, the beginning of autumn, the weather will gradually turn cool, this year's summer, even if it is really over.

That night, old lady Jiang suddenly asked pearl to come to Fangfei garden and teach Jiang Li to go to Wanfeng hall. Jiang Li took her servant girl to Wanfeng hall. As soon as she got inside, she saw that everyone had arrived.

"Second girl," Mrs. Jiang pointed to the position beside her and said, "come on, sit down."

Jiang Li Yiyan sat down beside old lady Jiang.

Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanping sat on the right side of Jiang Li. Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and seemed to want to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. Since the last time she broke up with Jiang Yuanbai because of the Yin family, Jiang Li hasn't gotten along with Jiang Yuanbai much. On weekdays, she only met and said a few words. Jiang Li thought that Jiang Yuanbai could probably feel her alienation.

"Second girl," Mrs. Jiang said, "tomorrow night we are going to enter the palace. Your majesty celebrates for general Zhaode. The family received a post. Your third sister can't go now. You are the only one in the Miss Jiang family."

"Yes," Lu said warmly, "dress up better during the introduction."

As soon as they said this, Jiang Li suddenly realized. In particular, Jiang Jingrui also secretly winked at her. Jiang Li thought of the conversation between Jiang Yuanbai and old lady Jiang, which tong'er eavesdropped in the late Phoenix hall before - when Emperor Hong Xiaodi rewarded him for his merits, Yin Zhan would put forward the matter of marriage.

Jiang Li knew that day would come sooner or later, and the peace of these days was only temporary. Tonight's talk means that this calm is over.

"OK." Jiang Li answered simply and comprehensively.

Seeing her so cheerful, the yuan family hesitated. Jiang Yuanbai stared at Jiang Li even more. He knew that Jiang Li was unwilling to do this. However, in his opinion, Yin Zhili was a good choice. Jiang Yuanbai was also worried before. Jiang Li seemed to be a little close to Ji Hong. However, he later sent someone to investigate secretly and found that Jiang Li had nothing to do with Ji Hong.

Jiang Yuanbai doesn't understand what the girl's family is thinking. Jiang Li is very thoughtful, and his ideas can't shake Jiang Li at all. But now, only marriage with the Yin family is a better choice for Jiang Li and the yuan family.

"Xiao Li," Lu Shi said, "have you seen the prince's son these days?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "second aunt is joking. I've been staying in the house these days. How can I see the prince's son?"

When she spoke, everyone in the room felt the change of Jiang Li. In the past, although Jiang Li also acted with a smile, even if she had any ideas, she was gentle and docile, at least pretending to be gentle and docile, not to mention that she had just returned to Jiang mansion from Qingcheng Mountain, which was also the case when her position in the mansion was rising.

However, today's Jiang Li, although also smiling, is no longer gentle and docile. It is more stubborn, as if there is no need to compromise and endure something. It also seems that with a guard of honor, even speaking becomes more direct and confident.

Why is this?

Jiang Li took a panoramic view of all the people in the room, and smiled in her heart. Naturally, with the support of ah Zhao and her father, she didn't have to be as careful and cautious as before.

The atmosphere in the room became awkward and stiff for no reason. Lu Shi hurriedly cut off the conversation and talked about other things, but everyone who listened to it had their own concerns and lacked interest.

Jiang Li stayed with them until late at night.

When going out, Jiang Yuanbai suddenly called Jiang Li. They walked behind. Jiang Yuanbai walked very slowly. He said, "ah Li, do you... Hate me?"

When he asked this, he hesitated, and Jiang Li turned to look at him. Jiang Li still remembers that when she first arrived at the Jiang family, Jiang Yuanbai looked energetic and elegant, but later, Ji shuran, ye Zhenzhen and Jiang Youyao passed one by one. Jiang Li found that this man was only deeply tired in his eyes, and his face even added a few wrinkles.

Jiang Li said, "I don't hate my father."

But I don't love either.

Jiang Yuanbai seemed to be moved by this sentence. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I won't hurt you, Xiao Li."

Jiang Li smiled and walked forward without answering Jiang Yuanbai's words.

Human feelings are very complex. Even Jiang Li can't judge Jiang Yuanbai's sincerity at this moment. She thought that Jiang Yuanbai might really have a father daughter relationship with Miss Jiang Er, but he could arrange the marriage without hesitation in the case of Miss Jiang er's resistance. If Miss Jiang ER was really here, could she understand Jiang Yuanbai's painstaking efforts?

Jiang Liqing is lucky that she is not Miss Jiang Er, because if Xue Huaiyuan treats her like this, she will be very sad.

Tong'er walked beside Jiang Li, and the shadow of Jiang Yuanbai was getting farther and farther away. After returning to Fangfei garden, tong'er looked at Bai Xue, lit the light, closed the door, and looked at Jiang Li with anxiety.

"What's the matter, tong'er?" Jiang Li looked at her look and said something strange.

"Girl, if the old lady wants you to enter the Palace tomorrow, it probably means giving marriage. What can I do?" Tonger road. It was she who told Jiang Li when she heard the plans of old lady Jiang and Jiang Yuanbai.

"Didn't the girl say that the LORD would deal with it?" Asked Snow White.

"The slaves thought that the LORD would make the Yan family change their minds, but now it seems that the celebration banquet is still as usual, and it is not possible that the Lord failed to persuade the Yan family." Tong'er was so anxious, "it's too late to leave now. What can I do, girl?"

Snow White also worried.

Jiang Li looked at the two servant girls and shook her head and laughed for some reason. Others said Yin Zhili was good, but two servant girls and a Zhao didn't think so. In this way, at least she wasn't standing opposite the world.

"It doesn't matter." Jiang Li comforted, "tomorrow will be fine."

"Tomorrow?" The two servant girls looked at each other, unable to understand the meaning of Jiang Li.

"In short, don't worry." Jiang Li said with a smile, "when it comes to tomorrow, naturally there is a way for tomorrow."

She said firmly, tong'er and Bai Xue gradually calmed down. They believed in Jiang Li, so they didn't go on. When Jiang Li collapsed at night, thinking about tomorrow, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

She pretends to be calm, but what if tomorrow Ji Chen really asks for marriage in front of all officials... What should she do? This step was really dangerous, but she may have some adventurous people in her heart, and she didn't resist at all.

Jiang Li looked out of the window again. It was quiet outside. There was only a deep shadow of the tree. She had not seen Ji Heng for a long time. To be exact, it should be after seeing ah Zhao that day. Jiang Li knew that Ji Heng was very busy these days, so she didn't feel anything, but tomorrow... Tomorrow Palace Banquet, about to see him.

Let's talk about tomorrow. Jiang Li covered her quilt and closed her eyes.

……

On the summer night of Yanjing City, cicadas were heard, everything was quiet, and someone came out from the end of the street.

The young man dressed in red robes walked slowly and walked at night in royal robes. If anyone saw it at the moment, he would doubt that he had seen the legendary goblin and be surprised at his gorgeous appearance.

The man walked directly to the government.

In the Imperial Palace, someone in the yard lit lanterns. When Ji Heng's footsteps came in, the two stood up at the same time. One is a scholar in green shirt, the other is a handsome young master. It is Lu Ji and Wen Renyao.

Wen Renyao said, "ah Heng, you are back."

Lu Ji said, "adults, come in and say."

The three entered the study.

General Ji had gone to bed, but situ did not sleep in September, but he was busy in the pharmacy. Since Xue Zhao went to Ye's house, situ didn't have to give Xue Zhao a needle in September. For a while, he was even free. She is also a little strange these days. She is always absent-minded. After being asked several times by someone, I was bored. I plunged into the refining pharmacy every day, leaving early and returning late. I didn't see anyone, and I was only refining poison.

Wen Renyao certainly didn't dare to provoke her. If he provoked situ Jiujiu and poisoned him, although so many years of friendship would not kill him, it was still possible to make him suffer severely. Hearing that people are far away, they learn from Xiao Hong. Far away from situ September, they can't afford to provoke or hide.

In the study, Ji Hong sat down on a chair. He leaned back and pressed his forehead.

"Your Excellency... Have you met the emperor?" Lu Ji asked.

"Not bad."

"What did the emperor say?"

"Yes, of course." Ji Heng smiled.

Lu Ji couldn't laugh. He said, "my Lord, now I make this decision, I'm afraid it will lead to the suspicion of Xia Jun Wang... I'm looking at you too early."

"Even if I don't do this, he will always stare at me." Ji hunhun didn't care and said, "if he wants to get what he wants, I'm the obstacle. Sooner or later, he will kill me, either he dies or I die. I can't give up my things because of a moment of stability."

Lu Ji was speechless. Ji Chen, who had been with Ji Chen for so long, could not be said to understand, but he understood one thing. No one could rob things from Ji Chen.

Ji Heng's Thoughts on Miss Jiang Er, these people, including silly big Kong Liu, saw the clue. Yan Zhili was undoubtedly looking for death when he wanted to marry at this time. However, Lu Ji still believes that this game of chess has reached the end, which is also the most exciting time. Don't lose too much for small things and mess up yourself.

Ji Heng doesn't like playing chess, not because he plays chess badly. Lu Ji once had a game of chess with Ji Heng. Ji Heng's chess skills are really exquisite. The reason why he doesn't want to play chess with others is that judging people by chess will reveal some of the players' ideas, and Ji Heng doesn't like to be speculated.

"That adult, we should consider our countermeasures if the Yan Family starts against us now." Knowing that Ji Heng couldn't be persuaded, Lu Ji changed his words.

"Yin Zhan had no ability but to garrison troops." Ji Heng's contempt flashed in his eyes, "there is no other countermeasure, and in the end, they will all come to the same end."

Wen Renyao didn't speak. He just listened to the discussion between Ji Heng and Lu Ji. He suddenly interrupted, "ah Heng, I suddenly felt that Miss Jiang ER was probably the woman in the divination sign."

Ji Xuan paused, glanced at him, and ignored him.

Lu Ji talked with Ji Heng for a while before leaving Ji Heng's study with Wen Ren. After going out, he didn't go back to the house with Wen Renyao, but stood in front of the house. Lu Ji asked Wen Renyao, "what do you mean by saying that Miss Jiang Er is the woman in the divination sign?"

Wen Renyao said, "our shaman sect only supports shamans for one person in his life. You know, when ah Chen came to help shamans calculate divination for him, he was very successful, only once."

Lu Ji frowned, "when?"

"When ah Chen was 14 years old, I helped him to practice divination. That divination sign was very different."

Inexplicably, Lu Ji was a little nervous, probably because the joke color on Wen Renyao's face also disappeared, and it could even be called dignified.

Wen Renyao also remembered that year.

At that time, Ji Heng was a beautiful boy. He sat opposite, the smoke curling in the incense burner. He was dressed in red, and his eyebrows and eyes were gorgeous and incredible, as if he were not a mortal. Wen Renyao said, "ah Heng, you look like this. It's really frightening to have a red face and lose your life."

Xiaoji ignored him.

Then, divinatory symbols gradually appeared on the tortoise shell.

Ji Heng asked impatiently, "what is it?"

Lu Ji in front of him also asked, "what is it?"

The two words overlapped again after ten years, making Wen Renyao seem to return to that year. He looked at the red clad boy through the smoke, and interpreted the divination word by word.

"Born in the winter moon, the king and Marquis are. Ten years later, they were robbed because of the female disaster, and their bodies were exposed to the wilderness, which was pecked by hawks and dogs."

……

The next day, old lady Jiang unexpectedly sent a box of jewelry to let Jiang Li choose a few things and dress better in a few days.

Jiang Li asked tong'er to put away the previous boxes of jewelry, but he didn't use it very much. When this box of jewelry came, tong'er also made trouble, saying, "girl, the boxes are full, which one do you want to wear?"

Jiang Li had to choose a few of them that didn't look so exaggerated and said, "that's all."

Tong'er received the remaining boxes into the box and said, "the old lady is really generous to the girl."

Jiang Li smiled. Now Jiang Youyao has become like this. She gave her a box of jewelry. I'm afraid she doesn't know how to be happy. There are no other girls in the Jiang family. Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou haven't got a wife yet. If they don't give Jiang pear, old lady Jiang really doesn't know who she can give it to.

But since the old man's kindness, Jiang Li certainly accepted it. After tidying up a little, Jiang Li saw that it was not early, and estimated that the time should have been bad, so she let tong'er and Bai Xue start together.

When she arrived in the yard outside the evening Phoenix hall, old lady Jiang was really waiting for Jiang Li. Lu Shi laughed and said, "I was just about to call pearl to call you, but I don't want you to come by chance."

Old lady Jiang looked at Jiang Li, and her eyes showed satisfaction.

Jiang Li looks more and more beautiful. Her appearance is like Jiang Yuanbai, and her temperament is not at all like it. It's a little romantic and gentle, but it's a little more clever and cunning than ye Zhenzhen. She stood with the yuan family, but it was not like a family at all.

Jiang Yuanbai was startled by the sudden idea in his heart, and hurriedly drove away the absurd idea in his mind. He only said, "since it's all here, let's go."

Jiang Li and Jiang Jingrui were sitting in a carriage. Jiang Jingyou didn't say anything, but Jiang Jingrui kept looking at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li said inexplicably, "what do you think I'm doing?"

"Do you know what grandma asked you to go to the palace today?" Jiang Jingrui asked.

Jiang Li paused in her heart. Lu Shi didn't know what was going on. Even Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou knew the Yin family's plan. She smiled and said, "what else can I do for the celebration banquet?"

"Why are you not curious at all?"

Jiang Li asked, "what are you curious about? Do you know anything?"

Jiang Jingyou pulled Jiang Jingrui, obviously to remind Jiang Jingrui not to talk nonsense. Before this matter is settled, if it is known by others, Jiang Li's reputation will be harmed in vain. Jiang Jingrui also knew the stakes, so he didn't go on, but he was still a little unwilling. He probably didn't take this matter to heart when he saw Jiang Li.

"Now Chengwang and Youxiang have fallen down. I don't know how about the fourth sister and the fifth sister." Jiang Li suddenly said.

She just casually mentioned that she didn't hear about Sanfang these days. Jiang Jingrui said, "well, why do you mention this family? Do you still sympathize with them? You know that you were kidnapped to Huangzhou at the beginning, but you were the cruel hand under San Fang."

"It's not sympathy, it's just a little strange." Jiang Li Dao.

"I've heard a little about Sanfang." It was Jiang Jingyou who spoke. He coughed softly and said, "third aunt... I heard that he accidentally fell into the water and died. The third uncle entrusted the fourth sister to the relatives of the Yang family, and now he disappeared. As for the news of the fifth sister, I'm not very clear, but Ningyuan Marquis house is negotiating with the Gao family in the city recently, and I heard that Miss Gao family is going to marry Ningyuan Marquis house."

Jiang Li didn't feel too surprised when she heard the speech. Sanfang was able to stand on the side of Cheng Wang and bet on a future. Naturally, it should also be prepared to lose the bet. Yang's falling into the water and Jiang Yuanxing's missing are all intentional. Jiang yu'e also has nothing to sympathize with. The family in Ningyuan Marquis house is not a good match. She was thinking about marrying in those days, and she tried her best to suppress Shen Ruyun after the accident. Naturally, she should also think that she might end up in Shen Ruyun one day. Unfortunately, Jiang Yuyan, born in Sanfang, is not her master. In fact, she didn't do anything harmful, but she was a little cowardly. But she has to pay for these things that she didn't do. Perhaps the evil fruit of Sanfang's greed is now borne by Jiang Yuyan.

"Their family had evil intentions and deserved to die." Jiang Jingrui disgusted.

Jiang Jingyou shook his head, said nothing, and Jiang Li was silent.

In any case, with the collapse of his last running dog, Youxiang, it seems that the curtain is completely over. Those bureaucrats who were openly and secretly related to King Cheng also ended in this war. Everything seemed to calm down.

But Jiang Li was vaguely uneasy.

Like this summer's weather, it is clear that the sun is still sunny and the sun is warm, but Jiang Li always feels that it won't be long before there will be overcast clouds and rain.

Only play it by ear.

……

The carriage stopped at the gate of the palace. Jiang Li and Jiang Jingrui got out of the carriage, stood outside the palace and looked into the palace. Jiang Li was filled with emotion for a moment.

She has been to the palace for several times, and many things have been done one by one in the ceremony after the school examination, the Palace Banquet, and the final discussion. Now come here again, originally tit for tat, Ji shuran is dead, and Jiang Youyao is crazy. Princess Yongning and shenyurong, who originally wanted revenge, had already paid the price for their sins.

In fact, it took only one year to unify the Communist Party. However, in a short year, she almost completed all her dreams since her rebirth. All this went well, like God deliberately to compensate for the pain she suffered in her previous life, or like God maliciously dug a trap, and now she just tasted the honey paved on the trap.

There are also some colleagues around who have already arrived, warmly greeting Jiang Yuanbai. Now the right Prime Minister completely collapsed, and all the people of the right Prime Minister faction were unlucky. The head of Wen Chen returned to Jiang Yuanbai with no mercy, and the people who followed Jiang Yuanping were also proud. It seems that at present, the position of the chief assistant is still very stable. In officialdom, the most people are at the helm, and there are not a few people who are busy paying compliments.

There are also many unmarried wives in their families, and the wives of their colleagues at the right age set their eyes on Jiang Li.

It can be said that Jiang Li is now the real apple of the eyes of the Jiang family. Whoever wants to marry Jiang Li can take advantage of the momentum of the Jiang family and prosper day by day.

In addition, Jiang Li was born well. She was admitted to the six arts school before. She is talented, beautiful and cute. She will not be too rich and colorful to cause disasters. It seems that she has a mild temperament. Although it was a little out of line to take the people of Tongxiang county to fight against stone lions and drum grievances before, it is precisely because of this that it is well-known among the people, but it is not a bad thing. In a word, flaws do not hide their shortcomings. Among the expensive women in Yanjing City, they are also among the top.

Jiang Li noticed that the official ladies looked at her eyes, warm, like looking at an object. She frowned slightly and stood behind Jiang Jingrui, isolating those eyes.
