"The most important thing is that Princess Yongning probably dug out the eyes of the third miss of the Jiang family and put her in a private prison, which offended Shoufu. Only then was she jailed."

Situ Jiujiu didn't mention the Xue family. In her opinion, if Xue Huaiyuan only came out to complain, it might not be able to bring down Princess Yongning and shenyurong. The reason why Princess Yongning stumbled this time was entirely because she had set up a private prison in the princess's house and violated the emperor's taboo. And he acted too recklessly, even Jiang Yuanbai's own daughter dared to move. If it is a small family in Pengmen, such as a Zhao, who seems to have little background, even if he has been destroyed by Princess Yongning all his life, he can only admit his bad luck and can't turn out anything. But Jiang Yuanbai is different. Jiang Yuanbai is not a person who will suffer in vain. He hurt his daughter. Jiang Yuanbai must find a way to revenge.

This time, the reason why the matter of Princess Yongning was handled neatly was that Jiang Yuanbai also contributed to the trouble and played a big role.

"The chief assistant?" Zhao obviously heard the name of Jiang Yuanbai. He murmured, "unexpectedly, it was he who avenged our family in the end."

Situ Jiujiu said, "anyway, now your enemy is gone, and you don't have to take revenge. But you can't do anything like this, just do whatever you want."

This can be said to be very hurtful, but situ jiulai is such a temperament. She doesn't care what others think. Even if the truth is bloody, she is too lazy to say a white lie.

A Zhao smiled, and when he smiled, he looked extraordinarily bright and brilliant. He said, "once upon a time, I hoped to travel all over the world, visit famous mountains and rivers, uphold justice and be happy with gratitude and hatred. Now I still think so. But before that, I still have some things to do."

Situ Jiujiu drugged him, Side road: "Now you can't visit all the famous mountains and rivers. You may have to rely on people to walk in your life. I've lived for so many years and haven't seen such a great Xia, so you don't have to think about it. As for what you said, there are still some things to do, don't you still want revenge? Princess Yongning is dead, do you want to not let go of even King Cheng and Princess Liu? Then I can tell you, King Cheng is now leading a rebellion, and Princess Liu is already there In the palace, he was killed by the emperor. "

The boy was stunned for a moment. Obviously, he didn't expect situ September to suddenly say so many things, which he hadn't heard before. He couldn't even get out of bed these days when he was in the government. Those boys didn't talk to him. Only situ Jiujiu was a little closer.

Situ Jiujiu saw that he stared at himself and didn't speak, so he asked, "you haven't told me what you said you want to do? You can't make trouble here. Although I saved you, I'm not a good man of Bodhisattva's heart. If you implicate the people here, you can only leave now."

Zhao suddenly laughed, He said: "Please don't worry, doctor situ, I won't take revenge. Since the enemy is gone, it's useless to investigate again. But I still have my father, who is still in my hometown. I was imprisoned in a private prison by Princess Yongning for nearly a year. This year, I think my father thought I was already dead. When I get better, I'll find a way to go home to see my father. The dead can't live, but at least the living will continue."

He was unaffected at all, and situ Jiujiu couldn't help glancing at his magnanimous calm. Many people in the world who used to be beautiful experience great changes overnight. Their lives fall to the bottom of the valley and become miserable. They often have a great change of temperament, or are sad and angry, or never recover. After all, they will not come out soon.

Zhao's life, presumably, has experienced ups and downs, but such ups and downs, situ September could not find a trace of haze. He quickly accepted the past and came out as if he had never experienced anything painful.

Situ septembersuddenly understood something about what Zhao Ke said. Ji Heng saved this man alone in Princess Yongning's private prison. She didn't believe how Ji Heng would take the initiative to save people, but the teenager was young, but his mood was more firm and open-minded than most people.

He looked at situ Jiujiu and said with a smile, "Dr. situ always said he was a poison doctor, and he practiced poison instead of medicine. But in the world, the person who took the medicine box may not be able to kill, and the person who took the knife may not be able to save people. Although Dr. situ practiced poison, he saved me. For me, he is a kind-hearted good man."

His eyes were bright and frank, and his smile was sincere, almost shaking situ September's eyes. Situ September didn't open his eyes, thinking that this boy was really simple, and he didn't know whether it was stupid or valuable.

"Who else is there in your family? You can't go too far now. If you can, you should let your family pick you up."

The young man's voice was a little lower, and he paused for a while before saying, "there are only my father and sister at home. After my sister died, I didn't see him. I don't know what happened to my father later, and whether he went to Yanjing. I don't know, so I want to go back and have a look."

"Where is your hometown?" Situ Jiujiu asked.

"Tongxiang, Xiangyang."

"Tongxiang?" Situ was stunned in September.

"What?" Zhao looked at her.

"Nothing, just a little familiar." Situ Jiujiu shook his head, but thought in his heart, isn't that where Jiang Li examined the case before, that is, the case from Tongxiang, which involved Princess Yongning, and then there was the person behind.

Maybe the next time you see Jiang Li, you can ask Jiang Li to ask the boy's family. And Xue Huaiyuan, the county magistrate of Tongxiang, who has recovered his mind and has been a county magistrate for so many years, naturally knows Tongxiang people. Xue Huaiyuan now lives with Ye Mingyu. You can let Xue Huaiyuan come to the government house to have a look at the young man. It's impossible that they used to be old friends.

Thinking about these things in his heart, situ Jiujiu didn't pay attention to ah Zhao. Until she was awakened by a Zhao's voice, she looked back, a Zhao looked at her and asked, "Dr. situ, what's the matter with you?"

Situ September was surprised that she had really spent too much time on this strange boy.

Maybe it's just because he laughs too simple and warm, and even some rare childishness. Even if she was hurt, she was still open-minded and warm, which reminded her of the sun in Mulan.

The short and happy years she had forgotten.

Situ Jiujiu stood up and said, "nothing." Carrying the medicine box, she hurried out regardless of giving ah Zhao half of the wound medicine that hadn't been finished.

It seems to be avoiding something.

……

On the fifth day after Jiang Li returned to Yanjing City, she heard that King Cheng's soldiers and horses had arrived in the wilderness hundreds of miles away from Yanjing city.

People who came out of the city saw it and told it. For a time, people in Yanjing city were panicked. King Cheng came in a menacing manner. His troops were overwhelming. It was said that once he attacked the city, he would be unstoppable.

Jiang Li still couldn't leave the house, and Jiang Yuanbai was really too tight. Even old lady Jiang was free, so she asked Jiang Li to go to Wanfeng hall. It was said that Yanjing city was in chaos recently, so Jiang Li didn't run around. With the gatekeeper guarding so tightly, Jiang Li can't go to Ye's house. Zhao Ke can't. If Zhao Ke is there, Jiang Li can also make Zhao Ke think of a way to leave the house quietly at night. Anyway, Zhao Ke has many ways.

When I think of Zhao Ke, I can't help thinking of Ji Heng. Jiang Li, the porcelain whistle, has been found. She tied the whistle with the sachet around her waist and hid it in it, so that she can whistle anytime, anywhere. But she didn't blow it once. Zhao Ke had left Jiang's house, and Jiang Li knew. Zhao Ke has long been absent from the gardeners of the Jiang family.

Ji Heng is no longer in touch with her. Jiang Li's heart can't tell what she feels. She knew it was a good thing for her. A cup of poisoned wine was placed in front of her, and she couldn't resist the temptation to drink it, which was the price of her life. If you are far away from yourself, it is naturally safer. But reason is one thing, and what you think in your heart is another.

She wanted to do something else to divert her attention, but she couldn't go to the Ye family, and ye Mingyu couldn't take the initiative to visit him in the Jiang family these days - Ye Mingyu didn't like Jiang Yuanbai, and of course she didn't want to take the initiative to step into the door of the Jiang family. King Cheng's actions forced emperor Hong Xiao and his courtiers to be serious. Ye Shijie was also busy with these things every day.

Unable to go to Ye's house or the government house, Jiang Li found that her friends in Yanjing city were very few. At first, because of the reputation of killing mothers and enemies, everyone kept away from them. Later, the Jiang family had frequent accidents, and there were discussions everywhere. Jiang Li was too lazy to deal with being nice, so after a year and a half, although her position in the Jiang family had changed. But as at the beginning, Jiang Li is still out of tune with the expensive female circle in Yanjing city.

The only friend she has is LiuXu, the daughter of Chengde Lang Liu Yuanfeng. Even willow catkins, I heard that these days, she was also busy being dragged around by her mother to dinner, looking at people for her. After all, Liu Xu is one year older than Jiang Li, and Mrs. Liu wants to worry about Liu Xu's life.

Jiang Li was a little happy at this time. Jiang Yuanbai was busy and couldn't think of her marriage for a while. The big house is not the housewife again. Old lady Jiang is old. When this happened to Jiang Youyao, old lady Jiang seems to have been hit by it. She only cares about Jiang Yuanbai and trivia every day. Lu Shi will not take the initiative to intervene in the affairs of the big house. As for the three rooms, they have already separated, so they are not a family. Why should they intervene in this matter. So Jiang Li doesn't have to worry about who she will marry for the time being.

Thinking that King Cheng's rebellion is imminent, the yuan family is not in the mood to organize a wedding.

But even if we don't talk about it now, we will talk about it one day. The Jiang family only has two daughters in the big room. Jiang Youyao is now the swallow again. The Jiang family has already made plans to raise Jiang Youyao for a lifetime. In this way, only Jiang Li has a legitimate daughter. Although Jiang Yuanbai is his own daughter, his official career also needs in laws to maintain. Just like the original Ji family and Jiang family, how do you know that Jiang Li will not be the next Ji shuran?

It's all right. We'll talk about it someday. If that person is really unbearable and annoying, it's a big deal that she also learns from the stories Xue Zhao told her in those days. Xue Zhao sat on the wall and told her with high eyebrows. Which Miss escaped marriage again and flew away with her sweetheart. Although hiring is a wife and running is a concubine, it is impossible for Jiang Li to elope with anyone today. But she thought that after fleeing marriage, taking Xue Huaiyuan around all her life was not necessarily worse than getting married.

Thinking about the future, until tong'er's voice woke Jiang Li up, tong'er said, "girl, it's said outside that general Zhaode has returned to Beijing today."

"General Zhaode?" Jiang Li stood up in surprise, "what you said is true?"

"It's absolutely true," tong'er said, "the servant girls who followed the shopping in the yard outside have seen it with their own eyes. General Zhaode was sitting on a big horse, and he was extremely powerful. Today, the servant learned that there was another general Zhaode. I heard that general Zhaode was famous in those years. Why haven't I heard his legend for so many years?"

That's because general Zhaode left Yanjing many years ago. Later, there was no military incident in Beiyan. Naturally, this general Zhaode was also forgotten. Jiang Li heard the rumors of this general Zhaode when she was young, but it was not he who went to the battle to kill the enemy, but that he was extremely handsome, which could be compared with general Jin Wu at that time.

With general Jin Wu... Jiang Li thought, it was Ji Ming Han, Ji Heng's father. It was said that Ji Ming Han and Yin Zhan sympathized with each other, quite a little brotherly loyalty, but this rumor didn't know whether it was true or not. After all, one person has been in the clouds in the Northwest for many years, and one person simply hasn't heard from him for many years, and he doesn't know his life or death.

"Did he just return to Yanjing today?" Jiang Li asked.

Tong'er replied, "yes. People outside say so. The people are still very happy. They say that now they don't have to worry about King Cheng's troops coming in. There is another general. It must be your majesty who sent the general back to protect Yanjing."

As soon as king Cheng's troops arrived outside Yanjing, general Zhaode came back at the right time. Of course, it can greatly appease the people. If it's a coincidence, it's all right. If it's true, general Zhaode, I'm afraid the purpose of coming is not simple.

I haven't heard of this name for many years. Now, because of the right time, it suddenly became famous among the people. I don't know whether those outside about his military achievements were deliberately spread by intentional people. It could have been a good opportunity to elevate the monarchy of emperor Hongxiao, but it was invisible to marry clothes for others.

Maybe it was because he knew in advance that Ji Heng was going for Yin Zhan, and Jiang Li was the first to enter, so he was full of vigilance for Yin Zhan. Even if yu tonger said it was lively and yearning, Jiang Li's heart was full of doubts.

Yin Zhan was so blatant, and regardless of the views of King Cheng and Emperor Hong Xiao, Ji he always knew. For this game he has arranged for so long, I don't know what Ji Heng will do in the final game.

Jiang Li doesn't know, nor does she know.

Yin Zhan's waves in Yanjing city were bigger than Jiang Li had imagined. Not to mention how it was outside, one day today, Jiang Li walked in the house, and he could hear the young men talking about how handsome and majestic the general was.

When Pearl arrived at the gate of Fangfei garden, Bai Xue came to report. Jiang Li saw her, and Pearl laughed and said, "second miss, the old lady asked you to go to Wanfeng hall."

Jiang Li answered, but she was a little strange in her heart. She had gone to Wanfeng hall in the daytime and wanted to go to Wanfeng hall in the evening. Naturally, it was not a whim. I'm afraid she had something to say. It's just so late. What else can I do.

When Jiang Li arrived at Wanfeng hall, she found that Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou were not there. Old lady Jiang was sitting in the room, and Jiang Yuanbai, Jiang Yuanping and Lu were all there.

Jiang Li entered the door.

"Second girl," old lady Jiang saw that she was coming. First, she let Jiang Li sit down. Then she didn't say anything superfluous, and went straight to the point: "three days later, the prince and the Pingyang County Chief came to the house for a dinner. You remember to dress up well these days."

"Prince's son, Lord of Pingyang County?" Jiang Li was stunned, and an idea suddenly flashed in her brain, saying, "it's the king of Xia County..."

"Yes," said Jiang Yuanbai, who answered Jiang Li. "You may also know that the king of Xia Jun has returned to Beijing today."

Jiang Liqi said, "father, did the king of Xia County have any contacts with our Jiang family in the past?"

"There was no contact in the past." Jiang Yuanping smiled, "but there may be contacts in the future."

What he said meant something, and Jiang Li didn't understand it for a while. She thought for a moment and thought of the pair of beautiful men and women she met on the street with Ji Heng in Yanjing city that day. It happened to be Yin. According to Jiang Yuanbai, the king of Xia County happened to have a son and a daughter, and she couldn't let her think much. Jiang Li asked, "is the name of father, son and county Lord Yin Zhili and Yan Zhiqing?"

This time, Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanping were stunned. Jiang Yuanbai stared at Jiang Li and asked, "how do you know?"

Is this it? Jiang Li was a little distracted for a moment, but she didn't expect that the men and women she saw in the street that day were Yin Zhan's children. How many days earlier did Yin Zhan's children arrive in Yanjing city? Why.

Thinking that three days later, when the couple came to the house, they would also recognize Jiang Li, so Jiang Li didn't hide it, and told Jiang Yuanbai frankly: "the day I returned to the house, the carriage hit another carriage in the street, and a man and a woman came down from the carriage, claiming to be Yan Zhili and Yan Zhiqing."

Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuan stared at each other. Lu Shi, who had been listening, seemed to understand and said in surprise, "ah, you've already seen it. What a coincidence!"

In her tone, in addition to joy, there was also some happiness, which made Jiang Li more confused. What good is it for her to bump into the brother and sister earlier? Is it worth Lu's pleasure? As far as Jiang Li knows, there is no contact between the yuan family and the Yin family.

Jiang Yuanbai was not as surprised as Lu, but asked Jiang Li, "I hit a carriage... How did I know their names?"

Jiang Li stopped talking. At that time, Yin Zhiqing took the initiative to tell her name in public, not for anything else, but for Ji Heng. But ask Jiang Li to tell others that the Pingyang County Lord has a crush on Ji Heng and takes the initiative to tell her name. Jiang Li feels a little awkward again. Ji Heng may not be happy, and the Pingyang County Lord will also think that she is talkative.

Jiang Li said, "it's just a little accident. There's no conflict. Father doesn't have to worry. We don't have a dispute."

She avoided Jiang Li's question. This made Jiang Yuanbai more confused. He was about to ask, but was blocked by Jiang Yuanping. Jiang Yuanping said, "since Xiao Li, you have already known their brother and sister, it will be a good thing in three days, which is also fate."

Jiang Li was silent for a moment, and then said, "is the Jiang family going to make friends with general Zhaode?"

Jiang Yuanbai said, "why do you ask?"

"Father, I'm just saying that it's a time of trouble now. King Cheng rebelled, the Korean situation was chaotic, and the right prime minister is now acting in secret. At this time, it's even more impossible to make a mistake. The general Zhaode suddenly came, and he doesn't know the details. At this time, it's better to be careful. Father should think twice before making any decision."

Lu Shi looked at Jiang Li and Jiang Yuanbai. She didn't understand these things, and her face was blank. Mrs. Jiang's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't speak.

Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li, and Jiang Li calmly looked at him. After a while, Jiang Yuanbai said, "there are some things I can't do. Lord, you are a girl, so don't care so much."

He understood what Jiang Li said. Maybe Jiang Yuanbai had already understood what Jiang Li said, but he still wanted to do so.

Jiang Li stopped talking.

Lu Shi saw that everyone around him was silent and said, "Xiao Li, I took some new materials a few days ago and made some clothes for you when making clothes. Later, I'll ask the girl to send them to you. There are also some jewelry. You are so beautiful. It's a pity if you don't dress well."

Later, the two brothers Jiang Yuanbai went out. Lu took Jiang Li and talked for a while before Jiang Li returned to Fangfei garden. As soon as she returned to the room, she sat down and pressed her forehead.

If Jiang Yuanbai wants to make friends with the Yin family, Jiang Li just feels bad. Looking at Ji Chen's appearance, it was clear that he had to deal with Yin Zhan. If the yuan family and the Yin family stood on the same line, the yuan family would become Ji Chen's enemy.

Jiang Li didn't want the Jiang family and Ji Chen to stand on the opposite side, not only because of her mind, but also because she thought it would be terrible if the enemy of the Jiang family was Ji Chen. Although Ji Heng is good to himself, his means to the enemy are still heinous. When Jiang Li lent her life to Ji Heng, she once said to Ji Heng that she would not be an enemy of Ji Heng. If she could, she hoped to help Ji Heng.

If you break your promise and bite the hand that feeds you, Jiang Li will look down on you. She also didn't want the past friendship between her and Ji Heng, which was sincere, complex and weak, to be dissipated in these gratitude and resentment.

That's a pity.

"Girl," in the silence, tong'er suddenly said, "do you know why the old lady and the second lady want you to dress up that day?"

Jiang Li said, "every time I go to a dinner party, they want me to dress up well. Besides, now the young lady in the house, Jiang Youyao can't see people anymore. If I don't dress up, it's inevitable that I'll cheat." Jiang Li didn't care.

"No." Tong'er walked around the back of the table, looked at Jiang Li, and said seriously, "the maid thought that the old lady was looking at someone for you. Maybe she wanted to see who the prince of the county was, and whether the girl liked it or not, so she specifically asked."

Bai Xue stopped the action in her hand, and Jiang Li was also stunned. Then she shook her head and said with a smile, "it's impossible."

The Yin family and the yuan family married? What is this like. She had never even heard of such a person before. And at this time, Jiang Yuanbai can't care about her life.

"How impossible?" Tong ER was anxious, "girl, you believe in slaves. Not to mention the old lady, the second lady's eyes, slaves will not be wrong. Obviously, I hope you can succeed."

Jiang Li's fingertips moved slightly.

Tong'er didn't say that she didn't feel it. Now think about it, Lu's attitude was really warm and too obvious. Although Lu Shi was willing to make friends with her in the past, his enthusiasm just now seemed strange. She also specially told herself what to wear, for fear that Jiang Li forgot.

Prince's son

Jiang Li's mind floated up the handsome man he met in the street that day. He seems to have a mild temperament and some integrity. He doesn't look like a bad person. The real Miss Jiang ER may like it. After all, this man looks much better than Zhou Yanbang.

But she is not Miss Jiang Er after all. Even if her life is good, Jiang Li didn't want to know at the beginning. She felt a burst of resistance in her heart.

"Isn't the girl happy to hear about the prince's son?" Bai Xue suddenly opened his mouth and startled tong'er.

"Nonsense," tong'er said, "I heard that the prince's son was very good-looking, gentle and polite, and even the servants were kind to him. It was said that he was kind-hearted. How could the girl be unhappy?"

Snow White lowered her head and silently wiped the table. After a while, she said, "I still think it's good to respect the Lord."

Jiang Li was stunned.

Tong'er hurriedly mouthed Bai Xue, but it was a pity that Bai Xue just wiped the table and polished it shiny, as if she didn't want to see anything else, and also ignored tong'er's eyes.

"No matter how good the prince is, he has never helped the girl." Snow White muttered.

Jiang Li suddenly smiled.

Even the servant girl can see it.

……

In the government house, at night, in the study, the young man leaned back on the chair and looked at the letter in his hand.

His expression was lazy, with a smile on his lips. In the flickering lights, he looked cold and beautiful, especially perplexing.

Someone came in from outside, the bodyguard in black. He put down the letter and picked up the fan at hand. After the guard entered the door, he first said something about the middle of the court. Ji Heng listened carelessly, and others looked at it. I'm afraid he didn't really listen to these things. However, when he looked carefully, his eyes were not half drunk, and he was very sober.

"My subordinates just got the news," Wen Ji hesitated, and then continued, "Yin Zhili and Yin Zhiqing are going to the yuan family for a dinner in three days."

After playing with the folding fan, Ji Heng asked, "Jiang family?"

"Yes." Wen Ji said, "before that, Yin Zhili had met with Jiang Yuanbai many times, and it seemed that he had always wanted to visit. Somehow, Jiang Yuanbai didn't post to him until now. His subordinates speculated that it might be for Miss Jiang Er, who was not in Yanjing before, so Jiang Yuanbai didn't let Yin Zhili visit. After Miss Jiang Er returned to the house, Jiang Yuanbai posted to Yin Zhili."

Ji Xuan raised his eyebrows. He was still smiling at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes became sharp.

He said, "Yin Zhili."
