When Jiang Li and Ji Heng returned to the outside of the woods, Ye Mingyu and his men had already found them. Two of his men were seriously injured, and the others were more or less slightly injured. Ye Mingyu had a cut on his arm, and the blood was dripping down, but he didn't care, he pulled a piece of cloth from his clothes and tied it at will.
They couldn't find Jiang Li's whereabouts everywhere. Just when Ye Mingyu was also desperate, they saw Jiang Li appearing on a horse at the end of Qingshi Alley, and beside her, there was a beautiful young man in red. Ye Mingyu recognized that this man had appeared in front of Ye's House in Xiangyang. Jiang Li said that this man was Lord Su Guo.
Although he didn't understand how the Lord Su had also come to Tongxiang, Ye Mingyu was overjoyed when he saw Jiang Li, and he hurried forward with someone to greet him and shouted, "Ali!"
"Uncle!" Jiang Li was also very surprised when he saw Ye Mingyu, and immediately took the reins off his horse. The two uncles and nephews reunited, and both were lucky to have escaped. Jiang Li looked behind Ye Mingyu and asked, "Is uncle okay? Where are the assassins?"
"It's all mobs, the three kung fu is the most powerful to chase you. When we solve the latter, there will be no shadow of you. We don't know the way of Tongxiang, scattered around to find you, we can't find you. I'm here, but my mother is in a hurry. Fortunately, you are okay." He looked at Jiang Li up and down, and saw that Jiang Li didn't hurt a little finger, so he was relieved.
Jiang Li was shocked when he saw the coarse cloth tied to his arm by Ye Mingyu, which was still oozing blood stains, and said, "Uncle, you are injured!"
"It's nothing," Ye Mingyu waved his hand nonchalantly, and said, "It's all minor injuries, not worth mentioning. A Li, let me tell you that this time I am at a loss. If you bring your own guard, you can't keep it. . But even so, those three good skills... I can’t deal with it. Speaking of it, how about those three? I was so anxious to death when I saw them chasing you, but I was entangled by other people and couldn’t take it off for a while. Open your body, how did you escape from their men?"
Jiang Li thought for a while, saying that he used the swamp in the woods to trap those killers, which was too scary for Ye Mingyu. Although he showed a lot of doubts, this uncle has always believed in himself wholeheartedly. It's better to keep him thinking simple, she didn't want Ye Mingyu to look at her like a monster.
She said: "I was riding a horse and hit a wood by mistake. Those people followed me into the woods. It was probably the first time they entered the woods and lost their way in it. I followed the guidance of the stars in the sky. They stepped out first."
She was so nonsense, Ye Mingyu didn't even doubt it, so he said: "It's a good risk, a good risk."
While Ji Heng kept silent, he glanced at Jiang Li, and the corner of her lips twitched, as if she was laughing at her lie.
Ye Mingyu also noticed Ji Heng's eyes, hesitated, and asked, "Ali, this..."
"I met Lord Guo when I came out," Jiang Li smiled and said, "If the Lord Guo hadn't helped me, I'm afraid I wouldn't come back so easily."
Since Ji Heng had decided to leave her life temporarily, naturally he would not turn back. Even in order to maintain his dignity of "not being taken away by others," he would help Jiang Li not to die by others. In this way, Ji Heng became a natural barrier instead. Jiang Li believed that as long as she was in danger, Ji Heng would not take the initiative to help, but as long as she asked Ji Heng for help, Ji Heng would take action.
It's hardly know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.
But whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, at least until Ji Heng didn't intend to take her life, they could be regarded as an alliance for the time being. So Jiang Li did not conceal Ye Mingyu.
Sure enough, when Ye Mingyu heard this, he immediately hugged Ji Heng and said in gratitude: "Really? Thank you, Grandpa Guo, for your help! Ye San is grateful, and if there is a need in the future, Ye San will surely repay me wholeheartedly!"
Ji Heng looked at Jiang Li and said with a smile: "Your family likes repaying kindness so much?"
Jiang Li's cheeks were reddened. When Ji Heng's fan was against her neck, in order to soften Ji Heng's heart, Jiang Li also said that "the next life will be the result of the grass and the ring." Although she knew that Ji Heng might not have seen her calculations, it was difficult to say whether Ji Heng let her go.
As long as it is human, there will be weaknesses. It's nothing more than the size. Ji Heng's weakness is still unclear for the time being, but Jiang Li knows that he will have it, as long as he still has emotions.
"It's not like repaying gratitude." Jiang Li smiled and said: "We are only clear about our grievances and grievances." There has been revenge for revenge, and gratitude for gratitude has been the same since ancient times. There is no such thing as ingratitude and ingratitude. If so, you must seek fairness and justice yourself.
"Okay, not much to say." Ji Heng said: "I'm going back. Within seven days, Feng Yutang's people can't touch you." He said, "I live in the tavern opposite the county government. What can I do to come to the tavern? Find me."
Ye Mingyu is a little flattered. In fact, people like him who walk in the rivers and lakes as adults do not have much idea about the official title and power of a person. Therefore, he would "hold a fist to thank Ji Heng", and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it. But in the bottom of Ye Mingyu's heart, he didn't think that Ji Heng would really help Jiang Li much. Because he saw this beautiful man with an intuition that the man's heart was as cold as steel, and no one could easily walk in. It was nonsense to say anything about love and kindness. Although I don't know why Jiang Li is entangled with him, but perhaps it is also every occasion.
But listening to Ji Heng's words at the moment, it is clear that he is willing to help Jiang Li. And what does it mean that Feng Yutang's people can't move them within seven days? This means that Ji Heng will clear all the obstacles brought by Feng Yutang and escort Jiang Li
Is this person so kind? Isn't he the Duke of the country? Can condescend to do these things? Could it be that Guo Gong is younger than the official of the first assistant, so he wants to please Jiang Yuanbai for promotion? Maybe he just wants to please Jiang Li? Jiang Li is now at an age to be able to see others, and will be able to marry in a few years. It's not that Ye Mingyu is boasting. Jiang Li's looks and temperament are top-notch, smart, brave, and visionary. There are very few people in the world who can be worthy of Jiang Li. Is this man a leper... The swan wants to eat swan meat? But then again, how big an official is Guo Gong
Jiang Li didn't know that his uncle's thoughts had gone so far at the moment. Ji Heng was able to say such a thing, no matter what the purpose was, at least she was very grateful now. She bowed to Ji Heng and said, "Great kindness, Lord Guo, Jiang Li has no intention of repaying him. With the future, he will definitely pay back."
When Ye Mingyu heard it, his hairs stood up all over, and he looked at Ji Heng vigilantly. As they walked through the rivers and lakes and passed by the tavern, I heard that the writer said the playbook, the line that the dude should say, "Then you can agree with your body"!
Never let this apprentice succeed! He wants to protect this simple niece!
Ye Mingyu was about to say something, Ji Heng had already spoken, and he said, "You don't need to thank you, since I'm in the show, I don't like watching idle people and so on."
For Ji Heng, the killers sent by Feng Yutang were indeed "free and miscellaneous" to him. These "miscellaneous and miscellaneous people" would really kill Jiang Li, and there would be no need to sing in the next play.
Jiang Li didn't quite understand why Ji Heng was so awkward to say good things, but when he said so, she wouldn't post it up to be boring, so he smiled at Ji Heng and said, "Anyway, thank you very much. Lord of the country."
Ji Heng glanced at her lazily, then walked slowly to the other side of the road without looking back. Under the moonlight, the road of Qingshi Lane is extremely long, his back is gorgeous and lonely, his robe corners fluttering, like a lonely and powerful demon, gracefully heading home.
Jiang Li felt that Ji Heng was a little different from before.
I don't know if it was because she had insight and told Ji Heng's secret, Ji Heng didn't need to pretend in front of her. That kind of smile that was always lingering, suddenly became a kind of carelessness. Lazy, boring, but sober, ready at any time.
He is a contradictory person, but he is not as "unlike a person" as before.
Ye Mingyu watched Jiang Li fixedly staring at Ji Heng's back, secretly crying out. Although his niece was wise and brave, she was a little younger after all. Faced with this enchanting man, the man teases a little, and it is inevitable that the little girl will not be tempted. At this moment, looking at the back of the family in a daze, is it already fallen? spit! The world is so unfair, a good-looking man just said a few words, just as if it were true.
He hurriedly pulled Jiangli, hoping that his niece would be able to get back when he was lost, and said, "Ali, how about it? Let's go back now?"
Jiang Li turned his head, looked at Ye Mingyu's arm, and said, "Okay, uncle, let's go home first and find a doctor to re-apply the medicine. It's no good to dress the wound like this. Everyone can sleep peacefully tonight." Since Ji Heng said Feng Yutang's people will not come to ask for trouble, which means that someone will protect Ye Mingyu and his party. At least within these seven days, Jiang Li in Tongxiang will not be suddenly assassinated by walking on the street.
Ye Mingyu didn’t care much about his injury at first, but when he saw Jiang Li caring about him, his heart moved, he immediately yelled "Ouch, oh," and said in exaggerated exaggeration, “I’m so in pain, I have to find someone. The doctor comes to bandage it up, go, Ali, let's go back first." He thought that Jiang Li would naturally not be concerned about the son of Rao Shi as long as he was distracted by himself. By the way, I have to ask tomorrow, how old is the official.
Jiang Li wondered why Ye Mingyu suddenly became squeamish, but thought he was really in pain, so he didn't say any more, and helped Ye Mingyu back to the yard of Qingshi Alley.
Bai Xue and Tong'er guarded the door, guarding so that their necks were broken. For a whole day, from day to night, Jiang Li and Ye Mingyu did not come back. The two maids were so worried that they couldn't eat and sleep. When they saw a group of people coming back safe and sound, they almost cried out of joy. Jiang Li ordered them to get hot water to prepare food, and asked a person who was not injured to ask the doctor to settle in for Ye Mingyu's staff first.
While Bai Xue was cleaning Ye Mingyu's wound, Ye Mingyu asked Jiang Li, "Ali, now Peng Xiao and the others have been rescued, and the files are in hand, what shall we do next? Do the households you mentioned go to the people of Tongxiang?"
"Yes." Jiang Li nodded, "Uncle take a good rest tonight. Tomorrow morning, we will conduct door-to-door inquiries. There are only five hundred and sixty-eight households. Although I don’t know if all the inquiries can be completed, but , Can ask one more household is one."
"Then do these things in these five days?" Ye Mingyu asked.
"As long as one family is willing to stand up, Dali Temple's name can be written, and Dali Temple will immediately terminate Xue Xiancheng's beheading order and arrest Feng Yutang to enter Beijing. No one can change, because Dali Temple's case must be After the emperor’s hand. As long as you add a sum of important officials in the middle of Beijing to this, your majesty will not despise it.” There is a saying that Jiang Li did not tell Ye Mingyu that she would not only write about the important officials in the middle of Beijing, she would directly write Princess Yongning. name.
In this way, it is to make enemies with Princess Yongning on the bright side. But there is nothing terrible about it, that is, on the surface, she and Princess Yongning are in peace, and Princess Yongning can send a killer to kill her in Tongxiang. As long as Emperor Hong Xiao sees the name of Princess Yongning, this Tongxiang case will inevitably become a major case, and Princess Yongning will inevitably not be involved in it.
This is what she wants. The files and officials have already arrived, and the only thing that is bad is the people of Tongxiang. As long as a part of the Tongxiang people can be persuaded to go to Beijing with them, this case will not be far away from the day when the world will come to light.
"Okay!" Ye Mingyu slapped his thigh, "We have done so many things, and the victory is in sight. As long as we tell the people of Tongxiang, the case of the Xue family can be reversed, and Feng Yutang's bastard can also be brought to justice. I have long seen him displeased. Just such a bastard, he can still be the county prime minister, go to his mother!"
Ye Mingyu was so angry that he even let out the vulgar words, but Jiang Li didn't care about it. She sighed lightly, her eyebrows were filled with worry: "In fact, the last step is the most difficult."
Since ancient times, kings have known the truth that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, no matter who they are, it is not easy to win the hearts of the people. Especially the people's hearts are still endangered by their lives.
She is actually not sure, she is the least sure of people's hearts.
But always give it a try.
… This night seems to be extremely long, in this small county of Tongxiang, how many people sleepless all night. The moon quietly disappeared in the middle of the night, the wind rolled up the leaves and rustled the streets, and the red lanterns under the eaves shook fiercely in the wind. The calmer the city, the more it seems that a storm that cannot be avoided is brewing.
In the early morning, Tongxiang, where it hadn't snowed for more than ten years, suddenly lighted up outside.
The snow is not as rough as Yanjing's, and the gentle little grains fall down, bringing out some crystal bright colors. Some hung on the branches and covered them layer by layer, forming a long crystal curtain. It seems that this small town is not prosperous, but also gentle and intoxicating.
Jiang Li was awakened by Tonger.
Tong'er's distressed voice is still in her ears: "How can a girl sleep on the table? I never went to bed last night?"
Jiang Li stretched her waist and said, "Nothing."
Last night, she withdrew Tonger Baixue and two others, but she wrote something overnight. There are five hundred and sixty-eight households in Tongxiang, each of whom has been blessed by Xue Huaiyuan. She had to go to more than 500 houses alone, but it was too late. Only let Ye Mingyu's people share part of it. With these "benefit pamphlets", Ye Mingyu will be more powerful and perhaps easier to persuade those people.
Just writing, she fell asleep on the table without knowing it. But the strange thing is that when I wake up like this, I don't feel too tired. Jiang Li stood up, opened the window, and a snowflake floated into the window. She stared blankly and said, "It's snowing."
"Yes, it's snowing." Tonger also looked outside.
She has lived in Tongxiang for more than ten years, and this is the first time she has seen snow in Tongxiang. I don't know what this means, but it may be a new beginning.
A smile slowly overflowed in Jiang Li's eyes, and she said, "It's good."
On the other end, Feng Yutang arrived at the county office in the morning and put on official clothes.
It was snowing for the first time in more than ten years in Tongxiang. It was also cold. He sneezed again and again, wiped his nose, and the young man brought a cup of hot tea. Feng Yutang lay down on the chair and complained: "It's really cold."
"Yes." Xiao Si said with a smile: "The lanterns at the door were blown down by the wind."
Feng Yutang looked outside and asked, "The person who went out last night hasn't come back yet?"
The little servant said: "No."
"There are no rules!" Feng Yutang said angrily. The three killers of Princess Yongning didn't even look at him, and sometimes Feng Yutang didn't dare to speak to those who called him. No way, who can make people belong to Princess Yongning? What's more, he has to rely on those people when he has some problems here. So even though he was dissatisfied, Feng Yutang only dared to mutter behind his back.
Last night I wanted to come and it was the three of them who finished their work again, and they didn't know why they went with him. Feng Yutang thought angrily. He had never thought that the assassination of Jiang Li could not be successful. In his opinion, the person of Princess Yongning is very good. Jiang Li, a young girl, and Ye Mingyu and the group, can fight Ye Mingyu, but after all, they are not the real killers. It is an undoubted fact that Jiang Li died in the hands of those people.
Thinking of Jiang Li's soft and beautiful face, Feng Yutang smacked his lips, feeling a little pity. If it weren't for Jiang Li's identity, he would never let such a little beauty die easily, at least until he had played. Speaking of it, Jiang Li was born well, and he was Jiang Yuanbo's daughter, so he died in Tongxiang like this, which is not lucky. But then again, if she didn't have to investigate Xue Huaiyuan's case by herself, then why did she end up here? So she deserved it when she died.
But Jiang Li, a little girl, should not have much contact with the Xue family. How could she investigate Xue Huaiyuan's case in a good manner? Could it be her father Jiang Yuanbai's gesture? Not only did he stop Jiang Li, but he also took Jiang Li's life. If Jiang Yuanbai knew this, wouldn't he be enemies with the Jiang family? Feng Yutang felt a little nervous again. He acted on behalf of others, and he was ruthless, but for Jiang Yuanbai, he was always afraid of three points. After all, he was not an ordinary courtier, but the head of the literati.
Thinking of this, I felt a little irritable. I was waiting for someone to report Jiang Li's death early in the morning, but now there is no movement. Feng Yutang felt faintly uneasy in his heart, but he tried his best to hold back, and only urged the young man next to him, and said: "Send someone to see if there are any of them in the Hualou Tavern?"
As he was talking, someone suddenly stumbled outside. When he came in, he fell over because of running too fast. The tip of his nose pointed at the soles of Feng Yutang's shoes, and he shouted: "My lord! My lord, something is wrong!"
Feng Yutang was just impatient, and he kicked it when he heard the words, and said, "Well, what? What's wrong?"
"My lord... You, you should go out and have a look at the backyard of the county office yourself!" There was panic under his hand.
Seeing this scene, Feng Yutang didn't know well in his heart. Not to say more, three steps and two steps to the backyard.
Before reaching the backyard, he smelled a strong blood. Feng Yutang resisted the feeling of nausea and walked inside. Before reaching the middle, he saw twenty dead bodies neatly arranged on the ground in the yard.
Feng Yutang didn't even see the corpse, but he didn't have to see it clearly. Because of the night's snow, the corpse was covered with a layer of snow particles. It was cold and hard, and it had no breath. The blood was solidified, Feng Yutang took a step backwards, holding the pillar in front of him dangerously, so that he could not fall.
He counted in his heart, three times in a row, it was exactly twenty people.
Twenty people, he sent a total of twenty of his own, and three of them from Princess Yongning. Now there are twenty people here, where did the other three go
Feng Yutang asked: "Where are the others?"
The subordinate who spoke first stepped forward, with uncontrollable panic in his tone, and said, "My lord, there are twenty people in total, and three of them are missing. They haven't been able to find them."
Didn't find out, maybe they are still alive. Yes, Princess Yongning is so skilled, she certainly won't die so easily. A glimmer of hope suddenly floated in Feng Yutang's heart, and asked, "Have you found any traces of them?"
His men shook their heads: "I didn't find their shadows, but they found their weapons in the swamps of the black forest... Your lord, most of them...
Feng Yutang's eyes were dark, and he almost fainted. After recovering his senses, he immediately yelled and said, "There are more than 20 of them, and they will besiege and kill seven people! They can be wiped out! Are they raised by a bitch? A bunch of rubbish! "Feng Yutang's chest rose and fell sharply, as if he was out of breath, but even his subordinates could hear the anger and panic in his voice.
Feng Yutang was scared.
Those twenty people are his subordinates. Now the best subordinates in martial arts have lost 20 of them all at once, and the remaining ones are out of the question. Without Princess Yongning's killer, he could do nothing. Don't talk about killing Jiang Li and the others, if Ye Mingyu were to come to assassinate him, his own men didn't know whether they could protect his life.
By the way, Jiang Li, Ye Mingyu, I don't know how they are now! Regardless of Ye Mingyu, what about Jiang Li? If their people had already taken Jiang Li's life before death, nothing would be bad. At least he didn't take care of Yongning's errand, Yongning would not blame him, and would help him escape. As long as Jiang Li is dead!
"Where is Jiang Li?" Feng Yutang grabbed the report and asked, "Where is Jiang Li? Is he dead? Is he dead?"
His eye sockets were bloodshot, describing it as a bit horrible and terrifying. He was forced to take a step back and slowly shook his head.
Feng Yutang's heart gradually sank.
"Ms. Jiang Er and the big man came out of the house in Qingshi Alley early in the morning and walked around, safe and sound."
Feng Yutang let go weakly.
The assassination failed. He lost 23 people, but Jiang Li was unscathed, and even dared to wander around the county town on the second day. This was a provocation, or there was no fear.
If you want to come, the twenty corpses in the county yahouyuan in front of you are Jiang Li's response. It seemed that she had known that Feng Yutang's people who came to assassinate her had harvested all of her men and horses, and then took the corpse back slowly and let him see clearly that this was the end.
She is really not afraid at all.
But he has no retreat. He clearly saw the danger of Jiang Li and his group, but at the same time he understood that Jiang Li could not stay. Not only because Princess Yongning’s order cannot be disobeyed, but Jiang Li knows that she will attack her. If you can’t kill her, wait for Jiang Li and Jiang Yuanbai to reconcile, and you don’t even have to wait until that day, you will also die at Jiang Li’s hands. , She will not let herself go.
This is a war between two groups of people. Either Jiang Li died or he died. He must do it to the end.
"Continue to send people to chase Jiang Li." Feng Yutang said bitterly.
"My lord..." The subordinate looked at him in surprise, as if puzzled by his decision, "I'm afraid..."
"I'm afraid it's a shit!" Feng Yutang scolded: "What do you know, don't hurry up, we are all dead if we are late!"
This road really has to get dark.
…
In the tavern opposite the county government office, Wen Ji said: "My lord, Feng Yutang has sent troops to chase and kill Jiang Er again."
Ji Heng sat in a chair and looked at the tea in the cup. He looked a lot more peaceful than usual. He looked out the window and didn't know what he was thinking. In the ice and snow, his red clothes are more vivid, and his lips are as attractive as petals.
After a while, he said: "You went to find someone to take it away."
Wen Ji took the order and left.
Lu Ji, who was sitting next to him, looked at Ji Heng thoughtfully, without speaking. Since knowing that Miss Jiang Er was chased by Ji Shuran and Feng Yutang's two groups last night, Lu Ji had a stone hanging in his heart. With such a combination of hands, even if Miss Jiang Er has great abilities, she can't escape her wings. But I didn't expect that it was Wen Ji who followed Ms. Jiang Er last night, but Ji Heng. Moreover, Ji Heng, who has never intervened in the family affairs of others, actually helped out, which is really surprising.
Ji Heng was never a soft-hearted person, let alone a kind-hearted person to draw a knife to help, but after all he did it, and after that, he showed a protective attitude towards Miss Jiang Er. Regardless of the purpose, use or other plans, Miss Jiang Er still succeeded.
She used an incredible method to pull the adults into this wonderful group drama, and the adults entered the game.
There was no way to guess what the adult was thinking, but Lu Ji thought that Miss Jiang Er was really amazing.

On the first day of June, everyone howl!
