This celebration banquet was originally prepared for Yan Zhan, the king of Xia County, but in the end, Yan Zhan lost face and failed to get what he wanted. Although emperor Hongxiao gave many gold, silver and jewelry, on second thought, many years ago, the gold and silver rewards general Zhaode received by virtue of his illustrious military achievements had long been piled up in the warehouse.
At the banquet, the marriage between Jiang Li and Ji Heng was still talked about. In fact, Yin Zhili and Ji Heng seem to be good choices. At the same age, Yin Zhili was as gentle as jade, and Ji he was handsome and gorgeous. One was the prince's son, and the other was the Duke of the country. But compared with Ji Chen, Yin Zhili seems to be much easier to get along with, and his temperament is also mild. And the Duke Su was used to being moody and killing people without blinking an eye. Miss Jiang Er seemed to be married brightly, but she was not necessarily comparable to marrying the Yan family. On this thought, the women's jealousy and envy of Jiang Li dissipated, but there was more sympathy. Of course, there were also many schadenfreudes. These ginger pears looked in the eyes, but they didn't say anything. Today, from the beginning to the end, she was very calm. Even if emperor Hong Xiaodi gave her marriage, she didn't lose her temper.
That's it until the celebration is over.
At the end, everyone should leave the palace. Many colleagues congratulated Jiang Yuanbai. Jiang Yuanbai was bitter in heart and had to accept with a smile on his face. Jiang Li stood aside and her eyes fell on Ji Heng. He stood up very slowly, as if he didn't feel that he had provoked a big thing today. His eyes met Jiang Li from afar. Seeing Jiang Li looking at him, he raised his lips and smiled, which was dazzling.
At this time, it was so obvious that she dared to do it, and she was not afraid that people would see the clue. Jiang Li secretly lowered her head, avoided Ji Heng's eyes, and pretended to be nothing. But I didn't know all this, but I was seen by two people.
One is the Li of Yin, the other is the love of Yin. Their brother and sister were originally a fan of Jiang Li and a fan of Ji Hu, naturally paying attention to each other's every move. At this moment, looking at the eye contact between Jiang Li and Ji Chen, it was clear that it didn't look like "unfamiliar", and Yan Zhiqing stood stunned, almost couldn't help his tears. Yan Zhili was not so impolite as Yan Zhiqing, but his eyes still flashed a trace of gloom.
As expected, she had known for a long time. Ji Heng's proposal for marriage was probably accepted with joy. Yin Zhili felt a dull pain in his heart, which was not sharp, but it was extremely uncomfortable. He remembered that every time he went to the Jiang family to find Jiang Li, Jiang Li also smiled at him. At that time, he thought that at least Jiang Li didn't hate him. But when he saw Jiang Li's eyes at Ji Heng, he understood what Jiang Li really liked about a person.
It's not the time for her to face herself.
Yan Zhan passed by their brother and sister, still with a bright smile on his face, and said, "let's go!"
Yan Zhili then reacted. He adjusted his mood and pretended that nothing happened. Mrs. Yin also took Yan Zhiqing's hand and whispered, "Zhiqing, let's go."
The family just left.
At the other end, Jiang Yuanbai easily perfunctory the blessings of a bunch of colleagues. When Jiang Li left, Ji Heng had disappeared. She didn't take this matter to heart, and went back to the house with Jiang Yuanbai and his party.
On the way back to the house, Jiang Li still shared a carriage with Jiang Jingrui and his brother. Jiang Jingrui looked at Jiang Li's expression. It seemed that he had a full stomach to ask. He tried to bear it, but finally he didn't. He said to Jiang Li, "you're married, why don't you care at all?"
"What should I do?" Jiang Liqi said.
"At least... You should show a little surprise." Jiang Jingrui muttered, "and how come you're not afraid from the prince of the county to the Duke of the kingdom of Su?"
"Why be afraid?"
Jiang Jingrui seemed to be so naturally surprised by Jiang Li's question. He asked, "haven't you heard the rumors of Duke Su?"
"Yes." Jiang Li said, "maybe it's all hearsay. Man Yanjing people didn't say that I killed my mother and enemy before, but no one knows what the truth is. Maybe Duke Su's experience is the same as mine, but it's an error spread by outsiders."
Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou were stunned at the same time. Jiang Li saw that they looked different and asked, "what's the matter?"
"You're so strange. I don't see you defending others like this on weekdays." Jiang Jingrui said, "when your grandmother asked you to get along with the prince's son more, you didn't like it. Now someone suddenly married a stranger, but he didn't resist at all, and also helped him speak. Jiang Li," Jiang Jingrui said: "you don't see Duke Su looking good, so you treat him better than the prince's son? But the prince's son is not bad."
Jiang Li said unhappily, "nonsense."
"Hey," Jiang Jingrui suddenly sighed again, "it's too late to say anything now. The imperial edict has been issued. Even if he knows that Duke Su has a bad temper, he can't repent now. He originally thought it was the prince's son..." he looked regretful.
The Jiang family seems to generally believe that Yin Zhili is a better choice than Ji Heng. Just after the action of emperor Hong Xiao tonight, Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanping are afraid that they won't think as before. Jiang Jingrui doesn't understand the complex situation in the DPRK, but the rest of the Jiang family is not stupid.
Jiang Li guessed that after returning to Jiang's house later, Jiang Yuanbai should talk to him.
Sure enough, the carriage arrived at the gate of Jiang mansion. Jiang Li wanted to go back to the yard. After a few steps, he was stopped by Jiang Yuanbai. He said, "Xiao Li, come with me."
Bai Xue and tong'er looked at Jiang Li anxiously. Jiang Li gave them a reassuring look, and they went to the study with Jiang Yuanbai.
As soon as the door was closed, Jiang Yuanbai turned and said, "did you know about Duke Su's proposal tonight?"
Jiang Li said, "No."
She had to lie about this matter. If she admitted it, Jiang Yuanbai would only think that he had reminded him that there was a problem in the Yan family, which was selfish.
Jiang Yuanbai looked at her suspiciously.
"I really don't know this marriage, and even I don't know that Xia Jun Wang will ask the emperor for this marriage, but there is one thing I know, the yuan family and the Yin family must not go too close. As long as there is this sign, someone will jump out and stop it. I didn't expect this person to be Duke su."
Jiang Yuanbai was half convinced. He said, "what you said is true?"
"My father doesn't believe me, so I don't have to go on." Jiang Li's magnanimous attitude made Jiang Yuanbai feel that he was too fussy. Looking at his daughter in front of him, he had some feelings in his heart. Jiang Li was a young girl. Which young girl's family worried about these court situations all day long? There are girls who sacrifice to become chips for the family, but the girls of the Shoufu family should be spoiled and should not worry about these trivial things.
"Why did Duke Su ask to marry you?" Jiang Yuanbai said, "before that, Huangzhou was the same. He saved you... Have you... Been in contact for a long time?"
"What happened in Huangzhou was an accident, and the relationship between me and Duke Su was not what my father thought. As for why Duke Su asked to marry me, I guess he knew the news that the king of Xia County was going to marry the yuan family, but it was better to start first."
"That means he values you, so he will rob Yan family." Jiang Yuanbai road.
"My father looked at me too high," Jiang Li smiled, "No matter the Yan family or the government, I don't want to overturn the overall situation for a daughter. I think the reason why Duke Su asked to marry me was not because he valued me, but because he didn't want the yuan family to marry. Father, don't forget that Duke Su was loyal to his majesty. His Majesty's attitude in this marriage was also intriguing. It seems that his Majesty would rather let me marry to the government than the Yan family. What does this mean?"
Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said what he thought in his heart. In fact, he had guessed the possibility, but he was unwilling to believe it. If he said it, it would prove that he had made a wrong choice before, and he might have to pay a price for his previous choice in the future.
"Your Majesty suspects Xia Jun Wang and distrusts Xia Jun Wang. Xia Jun Wang holds the military power, and his father is the first of the literary ministers. How do you know that Xia Jun Wang is not the next Cheng Wang? Cheng Wang has not been able to win over the Jiang family, and if Xia Jun Wang succeeds, how can you make your majesty feel at ease? In contrast, Duke Su has no military power, and secondly has loyalty, of course, Duke Su is the best. I guess it's impossible to say that even the marriage was not proposed by Duke Su himself, is it Your Majesty's idea is just that Duke Su did it. "
Jiang Li's words are half true and half false, but it sounds easier to be believed than all true and all false. Jiang Yuanbai was the same. He recalled the reaction of emperor Hong Xiaodi at the banquet. Although the little emperor grew up day by day and became more and more strange, he could still feel that emperor Hong Xiaodi was observing at that moment.
Emperor Hong Xiaodi did not trust Yin Zhan, for which Jiang Li did not lie.
"What did the king of Xiajun do..." Jiang Yuanbai murmured, "if your majesty didn't trust him, he wouldn't have been called back to Beijing."
"King Cheng's action is imminent. Of course, the king of Xia Jun will come out and perform meritorious deeds." Jiang Li replied, "did my father ever think that even if he didn't become king this time, the king of Xia Jun would return to Beijing one day. His Majesty was just playing tricks. He thought it was to close the door and beat the dog. He put the king of Xia Jun under his nose first, and he would see more clearly what he wanted to do."
Jiang Yuanbai frowned and stared at Jiang Li. He thought Jiang Li might know more than that. Her attitude towards the Yin family was evasive at the beginning, as if she had known that the Yin family was a trouble. But Jiang Li is a boudoir daughter. How does she know so much? In the whole Yanjing City, except for the Jiang family, ye Shijie is one of the official families she knows. But ye Shijie is even less likely to know what he doesn't even know. Is it... Ji Heng?
Jiang Yuanbai felt headache again. Jiang Li kept saying that it had nothing to do with Ji Heng, but Jiang Yuanbai's intuition told him that it was not the case. But the daughter's mouth is very tight, and he can't force Jiang Li to tell the truth, so he can only do it in a helpless hurry.
"Father," Jiang Li asked, "why did the former Emperor transfer the king of Xia Jun to the northwest cloud?"
Jiang Li couldn't find out anything about this. She asked Ji Heng and old general Ji, and asked her not to participate. Jiang Li thought, maybe Jiang Yuanbai can know some clues.
Jiang Yuanbai shook his head: "when the emperor made the decision, I was not the chief bachelor and didn't know the inside story. But after all these years, there has never been any gossip. It can be seen that few people knew this matter, and the Emperor didn't tell others."
He said so, Jiang Li was more suspicious. For no reason, how could the former Emperor suddenly order? Before that, I heard that the former Emperor and the king of Xia Jun had a good relationship. Although he was half father, he was closer than his biological brother. Something must have led to their estrangement, but it was probably not serious enough for the former Emperor to directly kill the king of Xia Jun, so it left a glimmer of life, but led to the chaos of the current situation.
Jiang Li's words seemed to remind Jiang Yuanbai that he no longer asked about other things, but thought about it.
Jiang Li waited for a long time, and Jiang Yuanbai didn't say anything else. After a while, Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said, "forget it, go back first. I'll find out these things slowly."
Jiang Li nodded and was about to leave when Jiang Yuanbai suddenly stopped her.
He said, "Xiao Li... Your Majesty's marriage can't be changed. You marry Duke su... Ji Heng, who is rumored to be bad and moody outside, may not be as beautiful as the surface when you marry him... Would you like to?"
"Father, the most important thing is not whether I am willing or not, but that there is no room for turning things around." Jiang Li looked back and said faintly, "when my father wanted me to marry Yin Zhili, he didn't care whether I was willing or not, even if I expressed resistance."
Jiang Yuanbai moved his lips, and Jiang Li said nothing.
"The Duke of the state of Su, Ji He, is just a bit bad. Everyone in the Yan family likes it, but only being guarded by his majesty will involve the yuan family to the abyss of doom. Since I am already the yuan family, I can't get rid of my destiny in it. In that case, I'd better find a team that seems to win the most. From the matter of King Cheng, my father may be able to see that his majesty is not an idle person. I think his majesty is the biggest, better than The king of Xia County. "
With these words, she saluted Jiang Yuanbai and left the study without looking back.
……
In Ye's mansion, Xue Huaiyuan was discussing books with Ye Shijie when he learned the news. They are old and young, and get along more harmoniously than their father and son. Ye Shijie is intelligent and studious, and admires Xue Huaiyuan's insight and breadth of mind. When they encounter difficult problems on weekdays, they all ask Xue Huaiyuan. Xue Huaiyuan never hid himself, and he also appreciated the integrity of Ye Shijie, so he taught him what he knew.
In contrast, Xue Zhao is not as interested in those books as ye Shijie. Although he is not as flexible as before, his jumping temperament is still the same as before. His favorite thing is to stay with Ye Mingyu. When ye Mingyu was practicing martial arts in the yard, Xue Zhao looked at it with envy. Ye Mingyu also knew that Xue Zhao was a material for practicing martial arts, but it was a pity that he was abandoned by Princess Yongning. He gave Xue Zhao all the weapons he could use in a wheelchair a try, and also tried to make Xue Zhao learn to use whips in a wheelchair. He learned whips well and would not be completely passive.
The people in Ye's mansion felt very strange. My uncle and nephew didn't see such intimacy, and my father and son didn't see such intimacy. I didn't expect to change a companion, but it was a perfect fit.
It was the same day. Late at night, Xue Zhao pushed his wheelchair and walked around Ye Mingyu's room. Ye Mingyu had several big boxes of treasures. He bought them when he used to travel and do business with the caravan. It's not particularly valuable, but they are all very strange. He was very generous to let Xue Zhao choose what he liked to go back. Xue Zhao looked left and right. While amazed, he was full of longing for ye Mingyu's natural and unrestrained life.
While they were talking, a Shun came in from the outside and said, "master... Master..."
"What's the matter? Running so heavily," Ye Mingyu glanced at him, "is the sky falling?"
"It's not the sky falling," Ah Shun stamped his feet anxiously. He knew how precious his nephew was, and said, "it's Miss Biao, Miss Biao!"
"Ah Li?" Ye Mingyu stared, "what's wrong with ah Li?"
Xue Zhao sat aside. At first, he didn't react when he heard "Miss Biao". After all, he didn't adapt to Jiang Li becoming Miss Biao of the Ye family, but when he heard Ye Mingyu call "a Li", he knew that Jiang Li had an accident. At that time, he was also anxious, and almost wanted to stand up. However, his legs were weak, so he had to watch Ah Shun closely.
Ye Mingyu was also startled by Xue Zhao's reaction, and thought to himself, is it possible that Xue Zhao also likes ginger pears? Although Xue Zhaoren is very good, it's a pity that he can't stand up. But ye Mingyu quickly slapped himself in the heart. Even if Xue Zhao likes Jiang Li, Jiang Li doesn't necessarily like Xue Zhao. Jiang Li's eyes are so high that it's difficult to get into her eyes.
Ah Shun stammered, "it's all spreading outside. Today, general Zhaode is celebrating in the palace. His majesty married Miss Biao and promised Miss Biao to Duke Su!"
"What?" Ye Mingyu pulled out his ears and almost thought he had heard wrong. He said, "ah Li was betrothed to Duke Su?"
How is it that the emperor was confused or couldn't tell who was who and how to order the mandarin duck spectrum?
Xue Zhao was stunned and quickly thought of Ji Heng. At that time, he asked Ji Hong what the relationship was between Jiang Li and Ji Hong. Ji Hong also said that he would soon be his brother-in-law. Xue Zhao also thought that this adult was too arrogant to speak. I didn't expect it to become a reality today. He really became his brother-in-law and was married by the emperor. I'm afraid it's not accidental!
Ah Shun also said, "I heard that general Zhaode used his war merit to ask his majesty to marry Miss Biao and the prince's son, but his majesty said that general Zhaode came a little late, and someone had asked for marriage. The emperor's edict had been drawn up, and that person was Duke su."
"I..." Ye Mingyu's cheeks flushed, and he said, "his uncle's! How can it be Duke Su?!"
How could it be Duke Su?
He had known that Jiang Li and Ji Xuan, the Duke of the state of Su, did not seem to have an ordinary relationship, but it was not ye Mingyu's thoughtfulness. It was really because Ji Xuan helped Jiang Li several times, and even ye Mingyu knew it. For no reason, why did Ji Heng help Jiang Li? I'm afraid it's a plot. And Ji Heng was born too beautiful. The young girl's family was easily confused by the skin bag. Ye Mingyu was most worried that Jiang Li was fascinated by Ji Heng. The reputation of Su Guogong, he knows, is by no means a good person to control. No matter how powerful Jiang Li is, he is only sixteen years old now. How to hold such a man is not as good as Yan Zhili. At least he looks like an honest man and won't do anything ridiculous.
But the edict has been made, and now it's too late to say anything. Ye Mingyu also looked helpless and didn't know what to do. Instead, Xue Zhao, who was on one side, sat in a daze for a moment, suddenly remembered something, pushed the wheelchair and was about to go out, saying, "I'll go to see my father!"
"Look at Dad?" Ye Mingyu was suspicious, and Xue Zhao had already pushed the wheelchair and ran out of sight before the sentence "what father do you see at this time" was exported.
Ye Mingyu chased out and saw Ye Shijie coming out of Xue Huaiyuan's room next door. When he saw Ye Mingyu, he stepped forward quickly and said, "uncle, what they said is true..."
"It's true." Ye Mingyu looked at him, and ye Shijie frowned, moved his lips, and said nothing. Ye Mingyu clearly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Shijie... Your cousin... You still forget."
At the other end, Xue Zhao pushed a wheelchair and entered the room. Xue Huaiyuan also looked like he couldn't return to God. Xue Zhao knew that Xue Huaiyuan also knew about it when he looked at him like this. He closed the door, pushed the wheelchair to Xue Huaiyuan and said tentatively, "Dad?"
Xue Huaiyuan's eyes slowly moved to him.
"Did you know that your sister was married?" Xue Zhao asked.
Xue Huaiyuan was silent. His performance was not as stunned as ye Mingyu, but it did not mean that there was no waves in his heart. After a while, he said, "I've been worried about one thing since Ali became a miss of the Jiang family. I'm afraid that her marriage will no longer be dominated by me or her, and finally she will marry a non-human in the club. But I also want to think well, if that day comes, I'll take your sister and brother to leave Yanjing. It's vast, there is always a hiding place, and it's a big deal that I can live a comfortable life in anonymity."
Xue Zhao listened quietly and Xue Huaiyuan continued.
"But I didn't expect that in this matter, I was more useless than I thought. Your sister received the imperial edict. Is it a royal land in the world? If you really want to investigate it, it's useless even if we escape to the ends of the earth. Zhao," Xue Huaiyuan asked, "what can I do?"
This old man, a year ago, was a middle-aged man who was resolute and impartial. Xue Zhao has never seen him weak, but after so many things and great twists and turns in the world, although he still smiles, he can't stand the torture in the end.
He cherishes his daughter, does not want her to suffer, and there is no other way. Is there anything more helpless in the world?
"Dad, you think too much." Xue Zhao's heart was also sour. He said, "you forget what kind of person your sister is. If she doesn't want to marry, she won't marry anyway. In addition, after Shen Yurong's affair, she will only be more cautious in this matter."
Xue Huaiyuan frowned, "what do you mean?"
"Dad knows who my sister is going to marry?"
"It's Duke su. I've heard his rumors, but I didn't have him when I left Yanjing city. General Jin Wu is a rare hero, but it's a pity. I heard that Ji Heng is moody, murderous, and everything depends on his preferences. How dare I give Ali to him." Xue Huaiyuan sighed long.
"Dad, in those days, our family all thought Shen Yurong was very good. Even I thought he had no strength to bind chickens, and certainly couldn't do anything extraordinary. But what happened in the end? How did this person treat his sister and our Xue family? There are so few people who are the same in appearance and in appearance, Dad."
Xue Huaiyuan is not a fool. When Xue Zhao said this, he immediately realized something. Looking at Xue Zhao, he said, "what? Do you know what happened to Ji Xuan?"
"Do you still remember that 'friend' of my sister? The one who saved me from the private prison of Princess Yongning's house, is Suguo Gongji."
Xue Huaiyuan was surprised and said, "how could it?"
"Not only that, as far as I know, when my sister came back to Tongxiang, Xiangyang and intervened in Feng Yutang's case, Ji Heng was also helping. Dr. situ also asked her to treat her father. Before King Cheng kidnapped her sister to Huangzhou, she was also rescued by Ji Heng. The most important thing is, how did I recognize my sister? It was because my sister went to the government house one day and saw me in the government house that we were able to recognize each other. But Dad, you Think about it, why did my sister go to the government? It can be seen that he is not a nodding acquaintance with Duke Su, but a very friendly one. "
Xue Huaiyuan was surprised when he heard this for the first time. Xue Zhao also suggested before that Jiang Li had a "friend". Although Xue Huaiyuan was strange in his heart, Jiang Li didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask. Now it seems that the "friend" who has a deep relationship with Jiang Li was originally Suguo Gongji.
"Why did he... Do these things?" Xue Huaiyuan asked.
"Dad, no matter what his purpose is, but if someone helps us, we can't be ungrateful and turn around and scold him for being a demon. Outsiders say he's ruthless, but in my opinion, he's a lifesaver."
Xue Huaiyuan was silent. He hadn't seen Ji Heng and couldn't tell whether Xue Zhao's words were true or not.
"That day I saw my sister in the government house. When my sister met me, she didn't avoid Duke su." Xue Zhao said, "this also shows that my sister trusts Ji Heng so much that she dares to entrust her identity. I think after Shen Yurong's affair, my sister will not easily trust people, so Ji Heng must have been tested and considered by my sister to be a trustworthy person."
"Did Ali really not avoid Ji Heng?"
"It's true. So I think, although this gift of marriage is not necessarily a good thing in the eyes of the world. But it's not necessarily a bad thing for my sister. Even when I look at Duke Su, the ruthless people in others' mouths are not afraid of trouble, and have done a lot of things for my sister. Is it not intentional? I'm not sure..." Xue Zhao paused for a moment, and then said, "when Duke Su proposed this gift of marriage, my sister also knew it."

The family just left.
At the other end, Jiang Yuanbai easily perfunctory the blessings of a bunch of colleagues. When Jiang Li left, Ji Heng had disappeared. She didn't take this matter to heart, and went back to the house with Jiang Yuanbai and his party.
On the way back to the house, Jiang Li still shared a carriage with Jiang Jingrui and his brother. Jiang Jingrui looked at Jiang Li's expression. It seemed that he had a full stomach to ask. He tried to bear it, but finally he didn't. He said to Jiang Li, "you're married, why don't you care at all?"
"What should I do?" Jiang Liqi said.
"At least... You should show a little surprise." Jiang Jingrui muttered, "and how come you're not afraid from the prince of the county to the Duke of the kingdom of Su?"
"Why be afraid?"
Jiang Jingrui seemed to be so naturally surprised by Jiang Li's question. He asked, "haven't you heard the rumors of Duke Su?"
"Yes." Jiang Li said, "maybe it's all hearsay. Man Yanjing people didn't say that I killed my mother and enemy before, but no one knows what the truth is. Maybe Duke Su's experience is the same as mine, but it's an error spread by outsiders."
Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou were stunned at the same time. Jiang Li saw that they looked different and asked, "what's the matter?"

Bai Xue and tong'er looked at Jiang Li anxiously. Jiang Li gave them a reassuring look, and they went to the study with Jiang Yuanbai.
As soon as the door was closed, Jiang Yuanbai turned and said, "did you know about Duke Su's proposal tonight?"

Jiang Yuanbai was half convinced. He said, "what you said is true?"
"My father doesn't believe me, so I don't have to go on." Jiang Li's magnanimous attitude made Jiang Yuanbai feel that he was too fussy.

"That means he values you, so he will rob Yan family." Jiang Yuanbai road.
"My father looked at me too high," Jiang Li smiled, "No matter the Yan family or the government, I don't want to overturn the overall situation for a daughter. I think the reason why Duke Su asked to marry me was not because he valued me, but because he didn't want the yuan family to marry. Father, don't forget that Duke Su was loyal to his majesty. His Majesty's attitude in this marriage was also intriguing. It seems that his Majesty would rather let me marry to the government than the Yan family. What does this mean?"
Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said what he thought in his heart. In fact, he had guessed the possibility, but he was unwilling to believe it. If he said it, it would prove that he had made a wrong choice before, and he might have to pay a price for his previous choice in the future.
"Your Majesty suspects Xia Jun Wang and distrusts Xia Jun Wang. Xia Jun Wang holds the military power, and his father is the first of the literary ministers. How do you know that Xia Jun Wang is not the next Cheng Wang? Cheng Wang has not been able to win over the Jiang family, and if Xia Jun Wang succeeds, how can you make your majesty feel at ease? In contrast, Duke Su has no military power, and secondly has loyalty, of course, Duke Su is the best. I guess it's impossible to say that even the marriage was not proposed by Duke Su himself, is it Your Majesty's idea is just that Duke Su did it. "
Jiang Li's words are half true and half false, but it sounds easier to be believed than all true and all false. Jiang Yuanbai was the same. He recalled the reaction of emperor Hong Xiaodi at the banquet. Although the little emperor grew up day by day and became more and more strange, he could still feel that emperor Hong Xiaodi was observing at that moment.
Emperor Hong Xiaodi did not trust Yin Zhan, for which Jiang Li did not lie.
"What did the king of Xiajun do..." Jiang Yuanbai murmured, "if your majesty didn't trust him, he wouldn't have been called back to Beijing."
"King Cheng's action is imminent. Of course, the king of Xia Jun will come out and perform meritorious deeds." Jiang Li replied, "did my father ever think that even if he didn't become king this time, the king of Xia Jun would return to Beijing one day. His Majesty was just playing tricks. He thought it was to close the door and beat the dog. He put the king of Xia Jun under his nose first, and he would see more clearly what he wanted to do."
Jiang Yuanbai frowned and stared at Jiang Li. He thought Jiang Li might know more than that. Her attitude towards the Yin family was evasive at the beginning, as if she had known that the Yin family was a trouble. But Jiang Li is a boudoir daughter. How does she know so much? In the whole Yanjing City, except for the Jiang family, ye Shijie is one of the official families she knows. But ye Shijie is even less likely to know what he doesn't even know. Is it... Ji Heng?
Jiang Yuanbai felt headache again. Jiang Li kept saying that it had nothing to do with Ji Heng, but Jiang Yuanbai's intuition told him that it was not the case. But the daughter's mouth is very tight, and he can't force Jiang Li to tell the truth, so he can only do it in a helpless hurry.
"Father," Jiang Li asked, "why did the former Emperor transfer the king of Xia Jun to the northwest cloud?"
Jiang Li couldn't find out anything about this. She asked Ji Heng and old general Ji, and asked her not to participate. Jiang Li thought, maybe Jiang Yuanbai can know some clues.
Jiang Yuanbai shook his head: "when the emperor made the decision, I was not the chief bachelor and didn't know the inside story. But after all these years, there has never been any gossip. It can be seen that few people knew this matter, and the Emperor didn't tell others."
He said so, Jiang Li was more suspicious. For no reason, how could the former Emperor suddenly order? Before that, I heard that the former Emperor and the king of Xia Jun had a good relationship. Although he was half father, he was closer than his biological brother. Something must have led to their estrangement, but it was probably not serious enough for the former Emperor to directly kill the king of Xia Jun, so it left a glimmer of life, but led to the chaos of the current situation.
Jiang Li's words seemed to remind Jiang Yuanbai that he no longer asked about other things, but thought about it.
Jiang Li waited for a long time, and Jiang Yuanbai didn't say anything else. After a while, Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said, "forget it, go back first. I'll find out these things slowly."
Jiang Li nodded and was about to leave when Jiang Yuanbai suddenly stopped her.
He said, "Xiao Li... Your Majesty's marriage can't be changed. You marry Duke su... Ji Heng, who is rumored to be bad and moody outside, may not be as beautiful as the surface when you marry him... Would you like to?"
"Father, the most important thing is not whether I am willing or not, but that there is no room for turning things around." Jiang Li looked back and said faintly, "when my father wanted me to marry Yin Zhili, he didn't care whether I was willing or not, even if I expressed resistance."
Jiang Yuanbai moved his lips, and Jiang Li said nothing.
"The Duke of the state of Su, Ji He, is just a bit bad. Everyone in the Yan family likes it, but only being guarded by his majesty will involve the yuan family to the abyss of doom. Since I am already the yuan family, I can't get rid of my destiny in it. In that case, I'd better find a team that seems to win the most. From the matter of King Cheng, my father may be able to see that his majesty is not an idle person. I think his majesty is the biggest, better than The king of Xia County. "
With these words, she saluted Jiang Yuanbai and left the study without looking back.
……
In Ye's mansion, Xue Huaiyuan was discussing books with Ye Shijie when he learned the news. They are old and young, and get along more harmoniously than their father and son. Ye Shijie is intelligent and studious, and admires Xue Huaiyuan's insight and breadth of mind. When they encounter difficult problems on weekdays, they all ask Xue Huaiyuan. Xue Huaiyuan never hid himself, and he also appreciated the integrity of Ye Shijie, so he taught him what he knew.
In contrast, Xue Zhao is not as interested in those books as ye Shijie. Although he is not as flexible as before, his jumping temperament is still the same as before. His favorite thing is to stay with Ye Mingyu. When ye Mingyu was practicing martial arts in the yard, Xue Zhao looked at it with envy. Ye Mingyu also knew that Xue Zhao was a material for practicing martial arts, but it was a pity that he was abandoned by Princess Yongning. He gave Xue Zhao all the weapons he could use in a wheelchair a try, and also tried to make Xue Zhao learn to use whips in a wheelchair. He learned whips well and would not be completely passive.
The people in Ye's mansion felt very strange. My uncle and nephew didn't see such intimacy, and my father and son didn't see such intimacy. I didn't expect to change a companion, but it was a perfect fit.
It was the same day. Late at night, Xue Zhao pushed his wheelchair and walked around Ye Mingyu's room. Ye Mingyu had several big boxes of treasures. He bought them when he used to travel and do business with the caravan. It's not particularly valuable, but they are all very strange. He was very generous to let Xue Zhao choose what he liked to go back. Xue Zhao looked left and right. While amazed, he was full of longing for ye Mingyu's natural and unrestrained life.
While they were talking, a Shun came in from the outside and said, "master... Master..."
"What's the matter? Running so heavily," Ye Mingyu glanced at him, "is the sky falling?"
"It's not the sky falling," Ah Shun stamped his feet anxiously. He knew how precious his nephew was, and said, "it's Miss Biao, Miss Biao!"
"Ah Li?" Ye Mingyu stared, "what's wrong with ah Li?"
Xue Zhao sat aside. At first, he didn't react when he heard "Miss Biao". After all, he didn't adapt to Jiang Li becoming Miss Biao of the Ye family, but when he heard Ye Mingyu call "a Li", he knew that Jiang Li had an accident. At that time, he was also anxious, and almost wanted to stand up. However, his legs were weak, so he had to watch Ah Shun closely.
Ye Mingyu was also startled by Xue Zhao's reaction, and thought to himself, is it possible that Xue Zhao also likes ginger pears? Although Xue Zhaoren is very good, it's a pity that he can't stand up. But ye Mingyu quickly slapped himself in the heart. Even if Xue Zhao likes Jiang Li, Jiang Li doesn't necessarily like Xue Zhao. Jiang Li's eyes are so high that it's difficult to get into her eyes.
Ah Shun stammered, "it's all spreading outside. Today, general Zhaode is celebrating in the palace. His majesty married Miss Biao and promised Miss Biao to Duke Su!"
"What?" Ye Mingyu pulled out his ears and almost thought he had heard wrong. He said, "ah Li was betrothed to Duke Su?"
How is it that the emperor was confused or couldn't tell who was who and how to order the mandarin duck spectrum?
Xue Zhao was stunned and quickly thought of Ji Heng. At that time, he asked Ji Hong what the relationship was between Jiang Li and Ji Hong. Ji Hong also said that he would soon be his brother-in-law. Xue Zhao also thought that this adult was too arrogant to speak. I didn't expect it to become a reality today. He really became his brother-in-law and was married by the emperor. I'm afraid it's not accidental!
Ah Shun also said, "I heard that general Zhaode used his war merit to ask his majesty to marry Miss Biao and the prince's son, but his majesty said that general Zhaode came a little late, and someone had asked for marriage. The emperor's edict had been drawn up, and that person was Duke su."
"I..." Ye Mingyu's cheeks flushed, and he said, "his uncle's! How can it be Duke Su?!"
How could it be Duke Su?
He had known that Jiang Li and Ji Xuan, the Duke of the state of Su, did not seem to have an ordinary relationship, but it was not ye Mingyu's thoughtfulness. It was really because Ji Xuan helped Jiang Li several times, and even ye Mingyu knew it. For no reason, why did Ji Heng help Jiang Li? I'm afraid it's a plot. And Ji Heng was born too beautiful. The young girl's family was easily confused by the skin bag. Ye Mingyu was most worried that Jiang Li was fascinated by Ji Heng. The reputation of Su Guogong, he knows, is by no means a good person to control. No matter how powerful Jiang Li is, he is only sixteen years old now. How to hold such a man is not as good as Yan Zhili. At least he looks like an honest man and won't do anything ridiculous.
But the edict has been made, and now it's too late to say anything. Ye Mingyu also looked helpless and didn't know what to do. Instead, Xue Zhao, who was on one side, sat in a daze for a moment, suddenly remembered something, pushed the wheelchair and was about to go out, saying, "I'll go to see my father!"
"Look at Dad?" Ye Mingyu was suspicious, and Xue Zhao had already pushed the wheelchair and ran out of sight before the sentence "what father do you see at this time" was exported.
Ye Mingyu chased out and saw Ye Shijie coming out of Xue Huaiyuan's room next door. When he saw Ye Mingyu, he stepped forward quickly and said, "uncle, what they said is true..."
"It's true." Ye Mingyu looked at him, and ye Shijie frowned, moved his lips, and said nothing. Ye Mingyu clearly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Shijie... Your cousin... You still forget."
At the other end, Xue Zhao pushed a wheelchair and entered the room. Xue Huaiyuan also looked like he couldn't return to God. Xue Zhao knew that Xue Huaiyuan also knew about it when he looked at him like this. He closed the door, pushed the wheelchair to Xue Huaiyuan and said tentatively, "Dad?"
Xue Huaiyuan's eyes slowly moved to him.
"Did you know that your sister was married?" Xue Zhao asked.
Xue Huaiyuan was silent. His performance was not as stunned as ye Mingyu, but it did not mean that there was no waves in his heart. After a while, he said, "I've been worried about one thing since Ali became a miss of the Jiang family. I'm afraid that her marriage will no longer be dominated by me or her, and finally she will marry a non-human in the club. But I also want to think well, if that day comes, I'll take your sister and brother to leave Yanjing. It's vast, there is always a hiding place, and it's a big deal that I can live a comfortable life in anonymity."
Xue Zhao listened quietly and Xue Huaiyuan continued.
"But I didn't expect that in this matter, I was more useless than I thought. Your sister received the imperial edict. Is it a royal land in the world? If you really want to investigate it, it's useless even if we escape to the ends of the earth. Zhao," Xue Huaiyuan asked, "what can I do?"
This old man, a year ago, was a middle-aged man who was resolute and impartial. Xue Zhao has never seen him weak, but after so many things and great twists and turns in the world, although he still smiles, he can't stand the torture in the end.
He cherishes his daughter, does not want her to suffer, and there is no other way. Is there anything more helpless in the world?
"Dad, you think too much." Xue Zhao's heart was also sour. He said, "you forget what kind of person your sister is. If she doesn't want to marry, she won't marry anyway. In addition, after Shen Yurong's affair, she will only be more cautious in this matter."
Xue Huaiyuan frowned, "what do you mean?"
"Dad knows who my sister is going to marry?"
"It's Duke su. I've heard his rumors, but I didn't have him when I left Yanjing city. General Jin Wu is a rare hero, but it's a pity. I heard that Ji Heng is moody, murderous, and everything depends on his preferences. How dare I give Ali to him." Xue Huaiyuan sighed long.
"Dad, in those days, our family all thought Shen Yurong was very good. Even I thought he had no strength to bind chickens, and certainly couldn't do anything extraordinary. But what happened in the end? How did this person treat his sister and our Xue family? There are so few people who are the same in appearance and in appearance, Dad."
Xue Huaiyuan is not a fool. When Xue Zhao said this, he immediately realized something. Looking at Xue Zhao, he said, "what? Do you know what happened to Ji Xuan?"
"Do you still remember that 'friend' of my sister? The one who saved me from the private prison of Princess Yongning's house, is Suguo Gongji."
Xue Huaiyuan was surprised and said, "how could it?"
"Not only that, as far as I know, when my sister came back to Tongxiang, Xiangyang and intervened in Feng Yutang's case, Ji Heng was also helping. Dr. situ also asked her to treat her father. Before King Cheng kidnapped her sister to Huangzhou, she was also rescued by Ji Heng. The most important thing is, how did I recognize my sister? It was because my sister went to the government house one day and saw me in the government house that we were able to recognize each other. But Dad, you Think about it, why did my sister go to the government? It can be seen that he is not a nodding acquaintance with Duke Su, but a very friendly one. "
Xue Huaiyuan was surprised when he heard this for the first time. Xue Zhao also suggested before that Jiang Li had a "friend". Although Xue Huaiyuan was strange in his heart, Jiang Li didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask. Now it seems that the "friend" who has a deep relationship with Jiang Li was originally Suguo Gongji.
"Why did he... Do these things?" Xue Huaiyuan asked.
"Dad, no matter what his purpose is, but if someone helps us, we can't be ungrateful and turn around and scold him for being a demon. Outsiders say he's ruthless, but in my opinion, he's a lifesaver."
Xue Huaiyuan was silent. He hadn't seen Ji Heng and couldn't tell whether Xue Zhao's words were true or not.
"That day I saw my sister in the government house. When my sister met me, she didn't avoid Duke su." Xue Zhao said, "this also shows that my sister trusts Ji Heng so much that she dares to entrust her identity. I think after Shen Yurong's affair, my sister will not easily trust people, so Ji Heng must have been tested and considered by my sister to be a trustworthy person."
"Did Ali really not avoid Ji Heng?"
"It's true. So I think, although this gift of marriage is not necessarily a good thing in the eyes of the world. But it's not necessarily a bad thing for my sister. Even when I look at Duke Su, the ruthless people in others' mouths are not afraid of trouble, and have done a lot of things for my sister. Is it not intentional? I'm not sure..." Xue Zhao paused for a moment, and then said, "when Duke Su proposed this gift of marriage, my sister also knew it."

Guard husband crazy demon Ali~
This celebration banquet was originally prepared for Yan Zhan, the king of Xia County, but in the end, Yan Zhan lost face and failed to get what he wanted. Although emperor Hongxiao gave many gold, silver and jewelry, on second thought, many years ago, the gold and silver rewards general Zhaode received by virtue of his illustrious military achievements had long been piled up in the warehouse.At the banquet, the marriage between Jiang Li and Ji Heng was still talked about. In fact, Yin Zhili and Ji Heng seem to be good choices. At the same age, Yin Zhili was as gentle as jade, and Ji he was handsome and gorgeous. One was the prince's son, and the other was the Duke of the country. But compared with Ji Chen, Yin Zhili seems to be much easier to get along with, and his temperament is also mild. And the Duke Su was used to being moody and killing people without blinking an eye. Miss Jiang Er seemed to be married brightly, but she was not necessarily comparable to marrying the Yan family. On this thought, the women's jealousy and envy of Jiang Li dissipated, but there was more sympathy. Of course, there were also many schadenfreudes. These ginger pears looked in the eyes, but they didn't say anything. Today, from the beginning to the end, she was very calm. Even if emperor Hong Xiaodi gave her marriage, she didn't lose her temper.That's it until the celebration is over.At the end, everyone should leave the palace. Many colleagues congratulated Jiang Yuanbai. Jiang Yuanbai was bitter in heart and had to accept with a smile on his face. Jiang Li stood aside and her eyes fell on Ji Heng. He stood up very slowly, as if he didn't feel that he had provoked a big thing today. His eyes met Jiang Li from afar. Seeing Jiang Li looking at him, he raised his lips and smiled, which was dazzling.At this time, it was so obvious that she dared to do it, and she was not afraid that people would see the clue. Jiang Li secretly lowered her head, avoided Ji Heng's eyes, and pretended to be nothing. But I didn't know all this, but I was seen by two people.One is the Li of Yin, the other is the love of Yin. Their brother and sister were originally a fan of Jiang Li and a fan of Ji Hu, naturally paying attention to each other's every move. At this moment, looking at the eye contact between Jiang Li and Ji Chen, it was clear that it didn't look like "unfamiliar", and Yan Zhiqing stood stunned, almost couldn't help his tears. Yan Zhili was not so impolite as Yan Zhiqing, but his eyes still flashed a trace of gloom.As expected, she had known for a long time. Ji Heng's proposal for marriage was probably accepted with joy. Yin Zhili felt a dull pain in his heart, which was not sharp, but it was extremely uncomfortable. He remembered that every time he went to the Jiang family to find Jiang Li, Jiang Li also smiled at him. At that time, he thought that at least Jiang Li didn't hate him. But when he saw Jiang Li's eyes at Ji Heng, he understood what Jiang Li really liked about a person.It's not the time for her to face herself.Yan Zhan passed by their brother and sister, still with a bright smile on his face, and said, "let's go!"Yan Zhili then reacted. He adjusted his mood and pretended that nothing happened. Mrs. Yin also took Yan Zhiqing's hand and whispered, "Zhiqing, let's go."The family just left.At the other end, Jiang Yuanbai easily perfunctory the blessings of a bunch of colleagues. When Jiang Li left, Ji Heng had disappeared. She didn't take this matter to heart, and went back to the house with Jiang Yuanbai and his party.On the way back to the house, Jiang Li still shared a carriage with Jiang Jingrui and his brother. Jiang Jingrui looked at Jiang Li's expression. It seemed that he had a full stomach to ask. He tried to bear it, but finally he didn't. He said to Jiang Li, "you're married, why don't you care at all?""What should I do?" Jiang Liqi said."At least... You should show a little surprise." Jiang Jingrui muttered, "and how come you're not afraid from the prince of the county to the Duke of the kingdom of Su?""Why be afraid?"Jiang Jingrui seemed to be so naturally surprised by Jiang Li's question. He asked, "haven't you heard the rumors of Duke Su?""Yes." Jiang Li said, "maybe it's all hearsay. Man Yanjing people didn't say that I killed my mother and enemy before, but no one knows what the truth is. Maybe Duke Su's experience is the same as mine, but it's an error spread by outsiders."Jiang Jingrui and Jiang Jingyou were stunned at the same time. Jiang Li saw that they looked different and asked, "what's the matter?""You're so strange. I don't see you defending others like this on weekdays." Jiang Jingrui said, "when your grandmother asked you to get along with the prince's son more, you didn't like it. Now someone suddenly married a stranger, but he didn't resist at all, and also helped him speak. Jiang Li," Jiang Jingrui said: "you don't see Duke Su looking good, so you treat him better than the prince's son? But the prince's son is not bad."Jiang Li said unhappily, "nonsense.""Hey," Jiang Jingrui suddenly sighed again, "it's too late to say anything now. The imperial edict has been issued. Even if he knows that Duke Su has a bad temper, he can't repent now. He originally thought it was the prince's son..." he looked regretful.The Jiang family seems to generally believe that Yin Zhili is a better choice than Ji Heng. Just after the action of emperor Hong Xiao tonight, Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanping are afraid that they won't think as before. Jiang Jingrui doesn't understand the complex situation in the DPRK, but the rest of the Jiang family is not stupid.Jiang Li guessed that after returning to Jiang's house later, Jiang Yuanbai should talk to him.Sure enough, the carriage arrived at the gate of Jiang mansion. Jiang Li wanted to go back to the yard. After a few steps, he was stopped by Jiang Yuanbai. He said, "Xiao Li, come with me."Bai Xue and tong'er looked at Jiang Li anxiously. Jiang Li gave them a reassuring look, and they went to the study with Jiang Yuanbai.As soon as the door was closed, Jiang Yuanbai turned and said, "did you know about Duke Su's proposal tonight?"Jiang Li said, "No."She had to lie about this matter. If she admitted it, Jiang Yuanbai would only think that he had reminded him that there was a problem in the Yan family, which was selfish.Jiang Yuanbai looked at her suspiciously."I really don't know this marriage, and even I don't know that Xia Jun Wang will ask the emperor for this marriage, but there is one thing I know, the yuan family and the Yin family must not go too close. As long as there is this sign, someone will jump out and stop it. I didn't expect this person to be Duke su."Jiang Yuanbai was half convinced. He said, "what you said is true?""My father doesn't believe me, so I don't have to go on." Jiang Li's magnanimous attitude made Jiang Yuanbai feel that he was too fussy. Looking at his daughter in front of him, he had some feelings in his heart. Jiang Li was a young girl. Which young girl's family worried about these court situations all day long? There are girls who sacrifice to become chips for the family, but the girls of the Shoufu family should be spoiled and should not worry about these trivial things."Why did Duke Su ask to marry you?" Jiang Yuanbai said, "before that, Huangzhou was the same. He saved you... Have you... Been in contact for a long time?""What happened in Huangzhou was an accident, and the relationship between me and Duke Su was not what my father thought. As for why Duke Su asked to marry me, I guess he knew the news that the king of Xia County was going to marry the yuan family, but it was better to start first.""That means he values you, so he will rob Yan family." Jiang Yuanbai road."My father looked at me too high," Jiang Li smiled, "No matter the Yan family or the government, I don't want to overturn the overall situation for a daughter. I think the reason why Duke Su asked to marry me was not because he valued me, but because he didn't want the yuan family to marry. Father, don't forget that Duke Su was loyal to his majesty. His Majesty's attitude in this marriage was also intriguing. It seems that his Majesty would rather let me marry to the government than the Yan family. What does this mean?"Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said what he thought in his heart. In fact, he had guessed the possibility, but he was unwilling to believe it. If he said it, it would prove that he had made a wrong choice before, and he might have to pay a price for his previous choice in the future."Your Majesty suspects Xia Jun Wang and distrusts Xia Jun Wang. Xia Jun Wang holds the military power, and his father is the first of the literary ministers. How do you know that Xia Jun Wang is not the next Cheng Wang? Cheng Wang has not been able to win over the Jiang family, and if Xia Jun Wang succeeds, how can you make your majesty feel at ease? In contrast, Duke Su has no military power, and secondly has loyalty, of course, Duke Su is the best. I guess it's impossible to say that even the marriage was not proposed by Duke Su himself, is it Your Majesty's idea is just that Duke Su did it.

Running so heavily," Ye Mingyu glanced at him, "is the sky falling?""It's not the sky falling," Ah Shun stamped his feet anxiously. He knew how precious his nephew was, and said, "it's Miss Biao, Miss Biao!""Ah Li?" Ye Mingyu stared, "what's wrong with ah Li?"Xue Zhao sat aside. At first, he didn't react when he heard "Miss Biao". After all, he didn't adapt to Jiang Li becoming Miss Biao of the Ye family, but when he heard Ye Mingyu call "a Li", he knew that Jiang Li had an accident. At that time, he was also anxious, and almost wanted to stand up. However, his legs were weak, so he had to watch Ah Shun closely.Ye Mingyu was also startled by Xue Zhao's reaction, and thought to himself, is it possible that Xue Zhao also likes ginger pears? Although Xue Zhaoren is very good, it's a pity that he can't stand up. But ye Mingyu quickly slapped himself in the heart. Even if Xue Zhao likes Jiang Li, Jiang Li doesn't necessarily like Xue Zhao. Jiang Li's eyes are so high that it's difficult to get into her eyes.Ah Shun stammered, "it's all spreading outside. Today, general Zhaode is celebrating in the palace. His majesty married Miss Biao and promised Miss Biao to Duke Su!""What?" Ye Mingyu pulled out his ears and almost thought he had heard wrong. He said, "ah Li was betrothed to Duke Su?"How is it that the emperor was confused or couldn't tell who was who and how to order the mandarin duck spectrum?Xue Zhao was stunned and quickly thought of Ji Heng. At that time, he asked Ji Hong what the relationship was between Jiang Li and Ji Hong. Ji Hong also said that he would soon be his brother-in-law. Xue Zhao also thought that this adult was too arrogant to speak. I didn't expect it to become a reality today. He really became his brother-in-law and was married by the emperor. I'm afraid it's not accidental!Ah Shun also said, "I heard that general Zhaode used his war merit to ask his majesty to marry Miss Biao and the prince's son, but his majesty said that general Zhaode came a little late, and someone had asked for marriage. The emperor's edict had been drawn up, and that person was Duke su.""I..." Ye Mingyu's cheeks flushed, and he said, "his uncle's! How can it be Duke Su?!"How could it be Duke Su?He had known that Jiang Li and Ji Xuan, the Duke of the state of Su, did not seem to have an ordinary relationship, but it was not ye Mingyu's thoughtfulness. It was really because Ji Xuan helped Jiang Li several times, and even ye Mingyu knew it. For no reason, why did Ji Heng help Jiang Li? I'm afraid it's a plot. And Ji Heng was born too beautiful. The young girl's family was easily confused by the skin bag. Ye Mingyu was most worried that Jiang Li was fascinated by Ji Heng. The reputation of Su Guogong, he knows, is by no means a good person to control. No matter how powerful Jiang Li is, he is only sixteen years old now. How to hold such a man is not as good as Yan Zhili. At least he looks like an honest man and won't do anything ridiculous.But the edict has been made, and now it's too late to say anything. Ye Mingyu also looked helpless and didn't know what to do. Instead, Xue Zhao, who was on one side, sat in a daze for a moment, suddenly remembered something, pushed the wheelchair and was about to go out, saying, "I'll go to see my father!""Look at Dad?" Ye Mingyu was suspicious, and Xue Zhao had already pushed the wheelchair and ran out of sight before the sentence "what father do you see at this time" was exported.Ye Mingyu chased out and saw Ye Shijie coming out of Xue Huaiyuan's room next door. When he saw Ye Mingyu, he stepped forward quickly and said, "uncle, what they said is true...""It's true." Ye Mingyu looked at him, and ye Shijie frowned, moved his lips, and said nothing. Ye Mingyu clearly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Shijie... Your cousin... You still forget."At the other end, Xue Zhao pushed a wheelchair and entered the room. Xue Huaiyuan also looked like he couldn't return to God. Xue Zhao knew that Xue Huaiyuan also knew about it when he looked at him like this. He closed the door, pushed the wheelchair to Xue Huaiyuan and said tentatively, "Dad?"Xue Huaiyuan's eyes slowly moved to him."Did you know that your sister was married?" Xue Zhao asked.Xue Huaiyuan was silent. His performance was not as stunned as ye Mingyu, but it did not mean that there was no waves in his heart. After a while, he said, "I've been worried about one thing since Ali became a miss of the Jiang family. I'm afraid that her marriage will no longer be dominated by me or her, and finally she will marry a non-human in the club. But I also want to think well, if that day comes, I'll take your sister and brother to leave Yanjing. It's vast, there is always a hiding place, and it's a big deal that I can live a comfortable life in anonymity."Xue Zhao listened quietly and Xue Huaiyuan continued."But I didn't expect that in this matter, I was more useless than I thought. Your sister received the imperial edict. Is it a royal land in the world? If you really want to investigate it, it's useless even if we escape to the ends of the earth. Zhao," Xue Huaiyuan asked, "what can I do?"This old man, a year ago, was a middle-aged man who was resolute and impartial. Xue Zhao has never seen him weak, but after so many things and great twists and turns in the world, although he still smiles, he can't stand the torture in the end.He cherishes his daughter, does not want her to suffer, and there is no other way. Is there anything more helpless in the world?"Dad, you think too much." Xue Zhao's heart was also sour. He said, "you forget what kind of person your sister is. If she doesn't want to marry, she won't marry anyway. In addition, after Shen Yurong's affair, she will only be more cautious in this matter."Xue Huaiyuan frowned, "what do you mean?""Dad knows who my sister is going to marry?""It's Duke su. I've heard his rumors, but I didn't have him when I left Yanjing city. General Jin Wu is a rare hero, but it's a pity. I heard that Ji Heng is moody, murderous, and everything depends on his preferences. How dare I give Ali to him." Xue Huaiyuan sighed long."Dad, in those days, our family all thought Shen Yurong was very good. Even I thought he had no strength to bind chickens, and certainly couldn't do anything extraordinary. But what happened in the end? How did this person treat his sister and our Xue family? There are so few people who are the same in appearance and in appearance, Dad."Xue Huaiyuan is not a fool. When Xue Zhao said this, he immediately realized something. Looking at Xue Zhao, he said, "what? Do you know what happened to Ji Xuan?""Do you still remember that 'friend' of my sister? The one who saved me from the private prison of Princess Yongning's house, is Suguo Gongji."Xue Huaiyuan was surprised and said, "how could it?""Not only that, as far as I know, when my sister came back to Tongxiang, Xiangyang and intervened in Feng Yutang's case, Ji Heng was also helping. Dr. situ also asked her to treat her father. Before King Cheng kidnapped her sister to Huangzhou, she was also rescued by Ji Heng. The most important thing is, how did I recognize my sister? It was because my sister went to the government house one day and saw me in the government house that we were able to recognize each other. But Dad, you Think about it, why did my sister go to the government? It can be seen that he is not a nodding acquaintance with Duke Su, but a very friendly one. "Xue Huaiyuan was surprised when he heard this for the first time. Xue Zhao also suggested before that Jiang Li had a "friend". Although Xue Huaiyuan was strange in his heart, Jiang Li didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask. Now it seems that the "friend" who has a deep relationship with Jiang Li was originally Suguo Gongji."Why did he... Do these things?" Xue Huaiyuan asked."Dad, no matter what his purpose is, but if someone helps us, we can't be ungrateful and turn around and scold him for being a demon. Outsiders say he's ruthless, but in my opinion, he's a lifesaver."Xue Huaiyuan was silent. He hadn't seen Ji Heng and couldn't tell whether Xue Zhao's words were true or not."That day I saw my sister in the government house. When my sister met me, she didn't avoid Duke su." Xue Zhao said, "this also shows that my sister trusts Ji Heng so much that she dares to entrust her identity. I think after Shen Yurong's affair, my sister will not easily trust people, so Ji Heng must have been tested and considered by my sister to be a trustworthy person.""Did Ali really not avoid Ji Heng?""It's true. So I think, although this gift of marriage is not necessarily a good thing in the eyes of the world. But it's not necessarily a bad thing for my sister. Even when I look at Duke Su, the ruthless people in others' mouths are not afraid of trouble, and have done a lot of things for my sister. Is it not intentional? I'm not sure..." Xue Zhao paused for a moment, and then said, "when Duke Su proposed this gift of marriage, my sister also knew it."Guard husband crazy demon Ali~
