The guard dragged them all down, and the glamorous actors, stripped of their gorgeous costumes, could not move, collapsed to the ground and dragged them, really embarrassed. Jin Mantang, which was famous for a while, instantly became a prisoner.
What awaits them is a more tragic ending than this "Jiangge Wen Ling".
Jiang Li looked at Xiao Taohong's back.
Such a charming and charming Hua Dan, even a woman could not help but feel sorry for her, but Ji Heng was not moved at all.
Jiang Li looked back at Ji Heng again.
His red dress was especially gorgeous in the black and white courtyard, and there was no more tactful singing on the scattered stage. Only the blood and swords scattered on the ground reminded that a fight had just happened here. But the glamorous young man gently shook his folding fan, his brows and eyes were full of wind and snow, where he could see the coldness and ruthlessness just now.
The heart is like steel, but the face is tender and tender. Jiang Li has never seen such a person. Killing while talking and laughing, keep quiet.
"Why does Miss Jiang Er look at me like this?" he said with a smile.
"Fangcai's play is very exciting," Jiang Li said, "I admire Grandpa Guo very much."
Ji Heng closed the fan and said, "I don't do a show."
"Yes," Jiang Li said, "Duke Guo is not in the play, so he won."
Ji Heng was so sober, Jiang Li had seen it a long time ago, and he knew everything clearly in his heart. He was dressed in bright red clothes, but his heart was like a courtyard with black and white in front of him, and he could see everything clearly. Therefore, when the little Taohong on the stage flirted with him, when the drama touched the hearts of the viewers, he smiled at the corners of his mouth, but his heart was full of sarcasm.
Just as he had known that Jin Mantang followed to Xiangyang, on the surface to flatter him, but actually to assassinate him, he had already understood this drama. He could have made preparations early, but he had to wait until this moment to let Jin Mantang sing the show.
He just wants to watch the show.
Jiang Li thought, maybe she, the Jiang family and the Ye family, are just a play in Ji Heng's eyes. The reason why he pays attention is only because he is still a little interested. As for how much he will really invest, just watching a play, why bother to spend too much effort? Can't be true.
Ji Heng said: "Second Miss seems very touching?"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "I just feel that things are impermanent."
"Miss Jiang Er is still satisfied with this play?"
"I dare not be dissatisfied." Jiang Li smiled.
"Don't say it, I seem to be terrible," Ji Heng's lips curled up, and his voice was ambiguously lowered. "Just now, when the second lady was in danger, didn't you drill into my arms in fear?"
Jiang Li almost coughed out.
At that time, at the very close of the battle, if she didn't find a shield, in case she died under the sword of manslaughter, she would be really wronged. Naturally, Ji Heng should be kept in front. Ji Heng said these words at the moment, and he looked at her interestingly, which made her actions just now have a different meaning.
"I'm in a hurry," Jiang Lipi said without a smile: "I'm sorry to be abrupt with the Duke of the country."
She was a woman, but she wanted to say something "abrupt" to a man, and spread it to Yanjing City, fearing that she would laugh off the big teeth of others.
"Nothing." Ji Heng said, his eyes fell to the ground, and he suddenly bent down and picked up an object.
When Jiang Li saw it, it turned out to be the jade pendant that was redeemed before. Xue Huaiyuan personally carved the jade pendant with a knife when she was born.
She was shocked and hurriedly touched her neck, and saw that the rope on her neck was broken. She was struggling to break it when she thought it was just a moment of confusion.
Jiang Li said, "That is my jade pendant."
Ji Heng rubbed the jade pendant in his hand, his eyes wandered on the jade pendant, and saw the lifelike civet cat. Jiang Li was anxious, ignoring other things, and stretched out her hand to grab it. Ji Heng was not as good as she wished, so she leaned back slightly and raised her hand to lift Yu Pei.
Jiang Li couldn't get it, and said, "Master Guo, that is my jade pendant, please return it to me."
"I heard that Miss Jiang Er has a single name with a pear." He smiled.
Jiang Li was depressed. Everyone in Yanjing City knew her name was Jiang Li. Ji Heng said this clearly on purpose.
"The people of the Ye family call you Ali, I don't know which pear it is. The pear of Lihua or the raccoon dog?" He lowered his head, his mouth deepened with a smile, and his eyes contained a slight coldness, which seemed to be affectionate, which made people confused. clear.
For a moment, Jiang Li felt that all her blood seemed to be frozen.
She smiled reluctantly: "Of course it is Lihua's pear."
"Really?" Ji Heng stared at her for an instant, with a particularly soft voice, "I think it's a raccoon dog."
Jiang Li looked up at him.
The man is not so beautiful, the bright red tears under his eyes, the brighter and brighter his eyebrows become.
Jiang Li said, "Why do you say that?"
Ji Heng didn't speak, and after a while, he smiled: "Because you are not as cute as Lihua, and cunning like a civet cat. Are you, Ari?"
The lips and teeth of the phrase "Ari" were fragrant, but Jiang Li felt cold all over his body.
It is impossible for Ji Heng to know her life experience, but she should have discovered something wrong. He is a temptation, and whoever shakes will lose.
Jiang Li raised her head and showed a smile with no flaws. She said: "Lord of the country call it whatever you like. The left and right are just a name. Just being heard by others, it would have misunderstood our relationship."
Ji Heng smiled: "The second lady always speaks so sad and unexpected."
Jiang Li looked at him, and only heard Ji Heng say again: "But it's unexpected that there is more than one. For example, Miss Jiang Er could find Tong Zhiyang's outer room, which surprised me."
Jiang Li sighed in her heart.
Tong Zhiyang couldn't find out the whereabouts of Tong Zhiyang's mother and son in the outer room by Ye Mingyu's people, but Jiang Li knew that this must be hidden from Ji Heng. Even people who are daring to assassinate people in the palace, why wouldn't they be placed in Xiangyang
With Ji Heng's ability, it is not difficult to send someone to stare at him anytime, anywhere.
"I really want to know how Miss Jiang Er knows the whereabouts of Tong Zhiyang's outer chamber." He spoke gentle and considerate, but aggressive.
"There is no impermeable wall in the world." Jiang Li looked at him calmly, "Since Tong Zhiyang has done it, he will always show his feet. It is not difficult to find the truth along the feet of the horse. I was also surprised that the grandpa would treat others Family affairs, such trivial matters."
"It has nothing to do with you." Ji Heng said with a smile, "Ms. Jiang Er did all major things." After a pause, he said again, "There is indeed no impenetrable wall in the world. He will show his horse's feet, follow the horse's feet, and find out the truth sooner or later," he smiled and looked at Jiang Li: "Is it?"
Jiang Li nodded: "Yes."
She understood Ji Heng's implication, and there were many doubts in her body. No matter how well she concealed it, her feet would inevitably be revealed. As long as she grasped these feet, one day, her secrets would be revealed.
Maybe Ji Heng can really do it, but she is not afraid. She just wants to avenge the Xue family. Otherwise, she doesn't care about the future.
Ji Heng also seemed to see that she didn't care, and said casually: "Ms. Jiang Er is not afraid of anything, because she has no fear. She has a thorough plan for everything, and now Tong Zhiyang is staring at you, no one dares to move you."
Jiang Li looked at him suddenly.
This was also seen by Ji Heng.
Indeed, before coming to Xiangyang, Jiang Li thought that Ji Shuran's mother and daughter had suffered such a big loss in the palace banquet, and when they thought about it, they would always doubt themselves. Even if there was no palace banquet, the mother and daughter could not tolerate themselves. Returning to Xiangyang this time gave them an excellent opportunity to get rid of themselves.
Ji Shuran's mother and daughter must have invited someone to spy on them secretly, and if there is a problem, they will definitely kill them. Announcing his identity at the entrance of Lizheng Hall, in addition to making Tong Zhiyang fearful and being polite to the Ye family, he also gave himself a peace symbol.
With his special identity, Tong Zhiyang will make people stare at his actions secretly. And right now the people in Xiangyang knew that Tong Zhiyang had offended Jiang Li. If something happened to Jiang Li in Xiangyang, no matter what the truth was, Tong Zhiyang would have to carry the pot. Others will only be because Jiang Li and Tong Zhiyang are feuding, and Tong Zhiyang will kill him in secret. Jiang Yuanbo will not let Tong Zhiyang go. Therefore, in order to prevent himself from being infamous in vain, Tong Zhiyang's people must also protect Jiang Li.
This is also the use of Tong Zhiyang's men and horses to deal with Ji Shuran's manpower. At least in Xiangyang where Tong Zhiyang is located, Jiang Li is safe.
This was Jiang Li's secret plan, but he didn't expect Ji Heng to see it.
Jiang Li smiled and said, "In the world, what else does the grandfather of the country do not know?"
"Yes." Ji Heng looked at her with moving eyes, "That's you."
"I?"
"People I've seen in my life," Ji Heng said: "At your age, regardless of male or female, Bei Yan has this plan. You are the first one."
"Thank you for the compliment." Jiang Li said, "Jiang Li dare not be."
"You can afford it, I'm just wondering, if you are so smart, how could your stepmother drive to Mount Qingcheng eight years ago?" He asked with a smile.
"It's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to the sky. I'm just bad luck." Jiang Li smiled: "Besides, eight years ago, I was only seven years old. The grandfather of the country compared the seven-year-old me with the current me, which is really harsh. Some. God will not always look after someone. For eight years, I have bad luck. But there is a saying, Feng Shui turns around and comes to my house today." She smiled lightly.
"Then I will wait and see."
Jiang Li smiled and nodded at him. At this moment, Ji Heng finally returned her jade pendant to her. Jiang Li returned a salute to him again: "Today's drama is very exciting, I should also go back. I have just thanked Grandpa Guo for helping me. Jiang Li is very grateful."
"No thanks," Ji Heng smiled, "Actually, Miss Jiang Er could leave without me, right?"
Jiang Li stared, then smiled, and said, "I still have to thank you." She bid farewell to Ji Heng again, and then turned to leave without a haste.
After Jiang Li's figure disappeared outside the courtyard, Wen Ji appeared behind Ji Heng and said, "My lord, the man of Jin Mantang..."
"Don't let people die." Ji Heng shook the fan and said: "After the trial is over, send it to her master."
Wen Ji answered, and asked: "Ms. Jiang Er is over there..."
"Keep on staring." Ji Heng said: "The people from Zhishiling will be here soon. I want to see how she will finish this play next."
Wen Ji stopped speaking, and thought deeply in his heart, and he saw everything today in his eyes from beginning to end. Jiang Li, a fifteen-year-old girl, faced Jin Mantang's assassination. Although she was panicked for a moment, she calmed down in a moment, as if she was not afraid at all. Moreover, Wenji and the group also noticed that Jiang Li repeatedly stretched into her sleeves, even in the critical moment of life and death, she did not have the idea of being helpless and waiting to die. She is accustomed to hiding behind the move and making all-out preparations. Just as Ji Heng said, even if Ji Heng didn't make a move today, Jiang Li might not be able to retreat.
Wen Ji looked at Ji Heng, the smile on Ji Heng's face had already been put away, and when he put away his smile, there were few tenderness and pity, some of which were just indifferent and indifferent, which made people fearful.
Ms. Jiang Er is not afraid of him, and is still fighting with him step by step. It's really not easy...
…
When Jiang Li returned to the courtyard of the Ye family, Tong'er and Bai Xue were shocked. There was some fine blood on the corner of her skirt, which was probably splashed on the assassin's body.
"What's the matter with the girl? Where is the injury?" Tonger turned around anxiously, and was about to check Jiang Li's injury.
"It's not my blood." Jiang Li comforted her, "I'm going to change clothes, don't mention this to other people."
Tong'er and Bai Xue were worried, but seeing Jiang Li's serious expression, they had to nod their heads.
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief, changed clothes again, sat down on the chair, and Bai Xue offered her a cup of hot tea. The two maids didn't know what happened. They didn't talk to Ye Mingyu at the gate of the mansion, and it was only an hour's work. How could it seem that something extraordinary had happened
Jiang Li drank some hot tea, and her heart gradually calmed down.
Today I wanted to talk about Ji Heng's depth, who knew he would run into the scene of Jin Mantang assassinating Ji Heng. It seems that Xiangyang is not at peace either. Those people are clearly coming for Ji Heng. She and Ji Heng have nothing to do with him, but in the eyes of those people, it seems that they are very close to each other. If they turn their fingers at her, then It is a disaster without delusion. Right now the Ye family's affairs have not been resolved, she is still carrying the Xue family's blood debt, but she doesn't want to trouble herself anymore.
You have to stay away from him.
When the matter in Xiangyang is resolved, and when you return to Yanjing City, you should not have any contact with Ji Heng. This person's thoughts are too deep, and the secrets he carries seem to be not shallow, don't want to catch up with yourself.
"Today is the seventh day..." she murmured.
After speaking at the entrance of Lizhengtang, seven days have passed, and she had already written a letter to Ye Shijie before that, and counting, it was these two days that the people from Weaving Room Ling should have arrived.
Tong Zhiyang didn't dare to get in the way of the people from the weaving room, and the outside room was in the hands of others. At least the Ye family's affairs will not get worse, even if the right is behind the scenes, because of the Jiang family's relationship, the Ye family is safe for the time being.
Apart from the Ye family's affairs, she came to Xiangyang most importantly for Xue Huaiyuan. I don't know how Qiong Zhi of Xihualou is asking about it. Time is running out, so she has to find an opportunity to go back to Xiangyang in person.
…
Two days later, the people sent by the Weaving Room Order arrived in Xiangyang.
The people from Weaving Room Ling went directly to see Tong Zhiyang first. After Ye Shijie reported to Weaving Room Ling Xiangyang about the antique satin incident in the name of the Jiang family, Yanjing's Weaving Room Ling immediately realized that the matter was not trivial. Ye's family is not only the home of the newly appointed household member Wailang, but also the former in-laws of the current chief assistant Jiang Yuanbai. No matter how they can't be underestimated, they immediately sent people to rush to Xiangyang on the road day and night to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Tong Zhiyang didn't expect the arrival of Yanjing to come so quickly. These days, he was so concerned about the mother and son that he raised outside, and he almost searched the city of Xiangyang, but he couldn't find anyone. When people were distracted, they relaxed a little bit about the Ye family's affairs. They didn't think about it carefully. They just thought that they had already sent a letter to his brother-in-law about the change in the situation in Xiangyang City, to see how he could deal with it.
But before there was a letter from the brother-in-law, the people from the Zhi Shi Ling faction arrived first. Tong Zhiyang didn't know what to do with the matter, so he had to work hard to deal with it, thinking that it would be delayed for a few days, and if it was delayed by Yanjing's letter, he would know what to do next.
"Master Tang," Tong Zhiyang said with a smile on his face: "The Ye Family's antique satin is dead, and the people in charge of the Ye Family are still in our yamen. You should take care of the weaving, but you should do the dead. We have taken care of it. So the two masters of the Ye family cannot be released."
The person sent by the Order of the Weaving Chamber to investigate the case was called Tang Fan. Hearing what Tong Zhiyang said, he couldn't say anything. What Tong Zhiyang said is correct. Their weaving room orders only weaves, regardless of killing. Since the fabric of the Ye family is dead, it is indeed necessary to let the yamen look into it.
"It's okay." Jiang Li, who came to discuss with Ye Mingyu, smiled and said: "We did not ask Uncle Minghui and Uncle Mingxuan to come out now."
Tang Fan heaved a sigh of relief. Before he came, his boss had clearly told him that this case was related to the Shoufu Jiang's family and Ye's family, and the most important was the Shoufu Jiang's family. That was the head of the literati in Yanjing City, so don't be offended. In Yanjing City, Jiang Li's affairs have been raging in recent months. Everyone knows that the second lady of the Jiang family is a powerful master. If Miss Jiang Er wants to protect Ye's family, they have to follow along. If Miss Jiang Er insisted on letting the two masters of the Ye family come out now, their weaving room order would have to fight against the yamen.
Tong Zhiyang was taken aback for a moment.
At the entrance of Lizheng Hall, Miss Jiang Er said that she was really not polite. Tong Zhiyang knew in his heart that this first assistant daughter must be a domineering master. Since she wants to make an appearance for the Ye family, she will definitely protect Ye Minghui and Ye Mingxuan. If she uses it to refuse because of reason, she can get entangled with the people of the weaving room order, so the entanglement will not end soon, so she can buy some time for herself. , Waiting for the reply from Yanjing City.
Unexpectedly, Miss Jiang Er was so easy to talk, so she agreed with it succinctly.
Tong Zhiyang thought it was Jiang Li's trick, and couldn't help but look at Jiang Li suspiciously, but saw the girl's delicate eyebrows and gentle smile, but she was innocent, pure and clear.
Maybe it's just a bluff, but in fact it's just a little girl who doesn't know anything? Tong Zhiyang was puzzled, and then he thought, Jiang Li is fine to talk so well, although he can't buy time. But Ye Minghui and Ye Mingxuan, who are in charge of the Ye family, are locked up, and the Ye family has no masters. That Ye Mingyu didn't know anything about the Ye family's business, and he couldn't prove it. Ye Jia'er and Ye Rufeng were just two young children who were still young. The scattered sand of the Ye family was not enough. There was no result after a few days of study, and there should be a new order on the other side of Yanjing.
Thinking of this, Tong Zhiyang felt relieved, and smiled: "So, we won't bother with the old satin satin. Master Tang, please thoroughly investigate the case and give the people of Xiangyang an explanation."
Tang Fan said: "The responsibility lies."
Ye Mingyu also said, "Look to Master Tang for everything."
Tong Zhiyang realized that the Ye Family had invited the Weaving Room Order, and there was no way for the time being. When he was triumphant, he heard Jiang Li say: "Master Tang, the people who used to wear the rash-like antique satin garments have all It was put away by us. Now the servants in the mansion have packed the antique satin in a box and sent it to the weaving yard under the mountain."
Tong Zhiyang was taken aback, Tang Fan glanced at Jiang Li in surprise, and smiled: "Ms. Jiang Er thinks very well."
"Master Tang should ask people to check what is wrong with the antique satin. Besides, everything in the weaving yard of the Ye family has not been moved, so it is convenient for Master Tang to investigate." Jiang Li smiled. Said: "What the Ye Family needs to do, the Ye Family will do their best to help. Once Tang Master finds out something, he can report back to the Weaving Room Ling. Weaving Room Ling has received news in the city of Yanjing. If it is the Ye family’s cause, it will be closed. If the weaving industry of the Ye family was dropped, the matter would be complicated if it weren't the Ye family's cause. I am afraid that there are other conspiracies in the middle, so I have to leave it to Master Zhizhou to investigate."
She didn’t say anything too quickly. Ye Mingyu didn’t understand the affairs of the officialdom, so he was confused. Tong Zhiyang frowned and vaguely realized that Jiang Li was not the innocent and innocent Jiao in his imagination. The most surprised was Tang. Fan, everything Jiang Li said was indeed the process of Yanjing City official. Could it be that Jiang Yuanbai is still teaching his daughter about these official affairs in the mansion? Otherwise, why is she talking about these things so well, as if she had already kept it in her heart.
Of course they didn’t know that the girl in front of him had been familiar with the official process when she married Shen Yurong. At that time, Xue Fangfei didn’t know how to help Shen Yurong, but had the ability to remember, so he simply took possession of Yanjing City. I read all the official books, including the official procedures. She knew the weaving room order and what she would do when the weaving room order came. To tell Tang Fan it was nothing more than to make Tang Fan understand that at least in the Ye family matter, she was not easy to fool, so Tang Fan had to take it seriously. right.
If it was because of Jiang Yuanbo's sake before, Tang Fan had to be polite to the Ye family, but Jiang Li's words now made Tang Fan also feel a little admiration. When Miss Jiang Er, who killed her mother and brother, returned to Beijing, she was spurned by everyone, but she became famous in one fell swoop by relying on the school exam of Mingyitang. She also received a gift from His Majesty the Emperor. So, she is capable. People are not bad wherever they go, even if they are in trouble, they can make a way out on their own.
Tang Fan respectfully said: "Then, time should not be delayed, let's go to the weaving yard now."
Jiang Li's group and Tang Fan left, and Tong Zhiyang couldn't help but feel a trace of anxiety as he looked at the back of them leaving. He paused, and asked the people around him irritably, "Yen Jing hasn't answered the letter yet?"
"Back to master, no."
"It's really a bunch of trash!" Tong Zhiyang cursed, "Go and ask again, and," he lowered his voice, "If the lady and the young master haven't fallen there anymore, don't blame me for being polite!"
His outer chamber and his son have not been there yet. Tong Zhiyang suspects that they were taken abducted out of Xiangyang City, but the time interval is too long. It is very difficult to find out now.
Everything went wrong! He angrily threw the cup on the table.
…
Ye's weaving yard is located in a clearing at the bottom of a mountain in Xiangyang.
There is no one in the weaving yard. Since the accident of Guxiang Satin, the weaving yard of the Ye family has been suspended and no longer weaving fabrics. The original ancient fragrant satin has flowed into the entire Beiyan, and there is a lot of news about the Ye family in Xiangyang City, but I don't know how other places in Beiyan are.
The weaving machine was covered with a faint gray layer. Walking in from the door, Nuo Da's weaving field looked particularly deserted. Ye Jiaer and Ye Rufeng were waiting at the weaving yard, and when they saw Jiang Li and the others came, they hurriedly greeted them.
"Cousin, you finally came." Ye Jiaer said. Looking for the stars and looking for the moon, I finally brought the people from the Weaving Room Ling to come. You must know these days, the Ye family can't sleep well. The Ye Minghui brothers were still detained at the Yamen, and Lizhengtang was closed. The whole Xiangyang city was rumoring that their Ye family's antique satin killed people. If they changed other people, they would not be able to eat well and sleep well. Chengri was worried.
Now that the weaving room order comes, you can find out exactly where the problem is, if there is a real problem, and know where to correct it, instead of ramming like a headless fly, sitting helplessly and not knowing what to do. , And watched things get worse and worse.
"Cousin, where is the antique satin?" Jiang Li asked.
Ye Jiaer hurriedly said: "Here." She staggered her body and exposed a neat row of wooden boxes on the terrace behind her.
The passengers opened the wooden box, and Tang Fan led his men to the wooden box.
The pattern of antique satin is very simple and dark. What is rare is the faint fragrance that naturally emanates from the fabric. This is a fabric that only the Ye family can make. In the two years since the ancient fragrance satin came out, it was hard to find a horse. In order to get one, the nobles even had to argue with each other.
Today's antique satin has become a mouse crossing the street, and everyone shouts, Ye Jiaer and Ye Rufeng have a trace of sadness in their eyes.
"After these antique satin were taken off from the guests, we haven't moved." Jiang Li smiled, "If there is anything on the antique satin that can cause illness, it should still be on at this moment."
Tang Fan stretched out his hand to twist a piece of cloth and rubbed it a few times. He was about to recognize it. After a while, he approached and sniffed it lightly.
Ye Jiaer held Jiang Li's hand nervously, Jiang Li smiled comfortingly at her, and she was a little relieved.
Tang Fan pondered for a while, then brought his men closer, repeating what he had just done, as if confirming something.
Seeing that he seemed to see something, Jiang Li said, "Did Master Tang find out?"
Facing Jiang Li, Tang Fan didn't dare to neglect, and said hurriedly: "I found it hard to say, it's just a bit strange."
"Why is it strange?" Ye Jiaer asked anxiously.
"How can there be Paolo on this antique satin?"
