Ji Heng’s carriage went directly to the Guogong Mansion. After arriving at the Guogong Mansion, Ji Heng, Lu Ji, and Wen Renyao got out of the carriage. Lin Yao was also taken away by Wen Renyao. Wen Ji and Zhao Ke continued to drive. The carriage went to Jiang Mansion.
This made Jiang Li breathe a sigh of relief, at least when facing Jiang Yuanbo, it was easier to deal with.
When the carriage arrived at the gate of Jiang's mansion, Jiang Li got out of the carriage. The porter was still a little confused at first, but when he saw Jiang Li's face clearly, he stammered in surprise: "Second, second lady!"
Jiang Li smiled and nodded at him: "Yes, I'm back."
The news of Jiang Li's return immediately spread to Jiang's mansion. In the night phoenix hall, Mrs. Jiang and the people in the second room have all arrived. As soon as Lu saw Jiang Li, he took Jiang Li's hand and said, "Xiao Li, you can count back. These days, my second aunt can't sleep well every night. I'm really worried!"
What she said was really exaggerated, but she was really sincere. Jiang Li smiled and patted her hand: "I'm fine, second aunt."
Jiang Jingrui asked: "I heard that you went to Huangzhou, how did you get to Huangzhou? Who saved you? I asked my father and uncle, they refused to tell me, Jiang Li, what is going on?"
Jiang Li knew it well, and Jiang Yuanbo and Jiang Yuanping did not tell others about it. But Mrs. Jiang probably knows the inside story, because she didn't have the same doubts as Jiang Jingrui. She just asked: "The war in Huangzhou, Er girl, are you injured? Are those thieves hurting you?"
"No." Jiang Li said, "Huangzhou's garrison has been facing off with King Cheng's soldiers and horses. Those soldiers and horses failed to enter the city, but they are very safe."
"But I heard," Jiang Jingyou was talking this time, he looked at Jiang Li, "The man who became the king was burned and looted in Huangzhou City, and many people died."
There is no way to hide this, Jiang Li said: "There is such a person, but I was probably lucky, so I didn't meet it, and escaped safely."
"Who is protecting you?" Jiang Jingrui approached: "So you are safe, who is that person? You can be rescued from the man who becomes the king, so it can be seen that you have the patience. You tell him what he is. Name, the uncle would like to thank others for visiting."
Jiang Li burst into laughter. Jiang Yuanbai knew that Ji Heng had saved him, but he was afraid that his first reaction was not to be grateful, but to doubt Ji Heng's attempt. The Guogong’s Mansion and Jiang’s family had no contact. It can even be said that Ji Heng replaced Jiang Yuanbai and Emperor Hong Xiao to get closer and closer. Jiang Yuanbai was afraid that he would still suspect that Ji Heng was instigating something in it.
While speaking, there was a sudden sound outside: "Ali."
Looking back, it was Jiang Yuanbai who hurried back. He didn't show up just now in the night phoenix hall. He should have been outside. He hurried to get news of Jiang Li's return to the house. Jiang Li called out "Father", he looked at Jiang Li, then looked around, and said, "You come to the study with me."
Mrs. Jiang nodded to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li followed Jiang Yuanbai to the study. As soon as he arrived in the study and the door was closed, Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li and said, "How are you, are you injured?"
Jiang Li shook his head.
Jiang Yuanbai confirmed for a while, it seemed that Jiang Li did not show any signs of injury, and he was slightly relieved. Immediately afterwards, he asked: "What the hell is going on? How did those people take you out of Yanjing and then to Huangzhou? How did Su Guoguo know that you were taken captive to Huangzhou and saved you ?"
When Wen Renyao wrote to Jiang Yuanbai and Ye's family about it, he said very vaguely. Regarding the specific situation of Jiang Li, he did not write very carefully. Looking at Jiang Yuanbai's confused appearance, it is obvious that it is not clear at all. What's the matter. Jiang Li sat down, and after she had separated from Bai Xue on the street that day, how was she disguised by those people and mixed up with Yanjing.
"They were clearly prepared. They planned to take me to Huangzhou from the beginning. They will do it methodically and unpreparedly. When people find that I am missing, I have been taken out of the city. It's too late to chase."
She also talked about those people who took her all the way to Huangzhou. Jiang Li omitted the statement that she saw Ji Heng's sedan chair outside the tavern and asked Ji Heng for help. This will certainly arouse Jiang Yuanbai’s suspicion. Firstly, how Jiang Li is so familiar with Ji Heng and can recognize his sedan chair at a glance. Secondly, it is because the world knows that Ji Heng is the least meddling person. Even more would not pity Xiangxiyu, Jiang Li asked for help, how could Ji Heng take the initiative to respond.
"Later, when I was at the inn, the woman wanted to be rough at me. I struggled desperately. It might be seen by the guards of Lord Su Guo. When I was at the palace banquet before, the two guards had seen me and knew I wanted to tell Duke Su about my identity, and Duke Su saved me." She smiled and looked at Jiang Yuanbai: "Father, Duke Su is a good person. He saved my life. We should thank him. ."
"Good guy?" Jiang Yuanbai laughed and looked at Jiang Li: "You are young and knows nothing, Ji Heng is not a kind person. I'm afraid he has other bargaining chips, but he is using you as a pretense."
Jiang Li listened quietly. Jiang Yuanbai had such a reaction, which she expected. If it was her herself, if Ji Heng didn't help herself again and again, if he didn't get along with him often, in Jiang Li's eyes, Ji Heng was also such a treacherous, cruel and ruthless person.
"However," Jiang Yuanbai said, "He saved your life in the end. Thank you, but you should not go, just thank you for your father."
He was still afraid of unnecessary contact between Jiang Li and Ji Heng. This may be due to Jiang Yuanbo's protection of the Jiang family's interests and Jiang Yuanbo's concern for his daughter. Although he is not a good father to the real Miss Jiang Er, he is not completely indifferent and ruthless.
Jiang Li nodded.
Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li. The girl's appearance was clear and lovely, and she became more and more refined and beautiful. Soon, she will celebrate her sixteen-year-old birthday, which is the best time for a girl. Too many things have happened in the past six months, but Jiang Li's position in Jiang's family is completely different. Of course it was because they discovered the truth, but it was also because this daughter didn't want to be herself or like Ye Zhenzhen. She was smart and knew how to advance and retreat. She didn't have the slightest arrogance in her body.
He thought of some of his colleagues before, asking about this daughter, although he stopped temporarily because of Ji Shuran and Jiang Youyao. But a gentle lady and gentleman are so charming, if this gentle lady is also a lady of the Shoufu family, naturally more people will love it.
He thought of the gentle and handsome man he had seen a few days ago. He had a good conversation and a righteousness between his brows. He was extremely comfortable with him. In fact, he should be a good match. Jiang Yuanbai himself liked it very much. It was just in the eventful autumn and King Cheng was in the midst of it. The Jiang family was too busy to take care of themselves, and was not clear about the changes that followed, and Jiang Yuanbai did not dare to make a decision lightly.
But that person... is always better than the moody and unpredictable Su Guo Gong.
"Ali..." Jiang Yuanbai couldn't help but said, "Duke Su is gorgeous and has power in the hands, but he is not a good match... You... Don't think about him."
He was reminding that these words were told by his father to his daughter. Jiang Yuanbai himself was moved and uncomfortable, but now there is no master mistress in the Jiang Mansion's big room, and no one has come to say these words to Jiang Li. There was no one on Lu's mouth, and Mrs. Jiang was getting older, Jiang Yuanbo could only speak for himself.
Jiang Li's heart shuddered, but a faint smile appeared on her face. She said, "I don't need my father to say that I know it."
Jiang Yuanbai looked at Jiang Li's expression, and when he saw her saying this, his eyes were calm, not like a lie, and he was relieved.
Jiang Li asked: "Father, why didn't you see the third uncle and the aunt, and the fourth sister in Wanfengtang today?"
Almost all the people in the night phoenix hall were there, but there was no one in the third room. This is strange, even though the relationship between Sanfang and Dafang Erfang on weekdays is not close, but for such things, Sanfang always has to be present. But no one was seen, and the appearances that Lu and Mrs. Jiang were accustomed to, made Jiang Li puzzled.
Jiang Yuanbo paused before saying, "We are separated."
"Separated?" Jiang Li was surprised, "How come you suddenly separated?"
Jiang Yuanbai sneered: "This time you were suddenly taken away, I'm afraid it was the ghost of the Sanfang people. They will tell Chengwang your whereabouts and find a way to tell Chengwang that Chengwang can design on your only way to the Ye family. Take you away. The people in their three rooms have a ghost in their hearts, and keeping them is also a scourge. Your grandmother will split the family."
"In such a short period of time, is it divided?" Jiang Li asked.
"It's just a concubine, so why bother to split the family? You don't need to ask the clan to host it. For so many years, without the Jiang family, they can't do anything, and naturally they can't take anything with them."
Jiang Yuanbai’s attitude is never before. Jiang Li remembers that when he first entered Jiang’s house, he was not as close to Jiang Yuanping as Jiang Yuanping, but he was also polite. Now that he looks like this, he is clearly an enemy. . It can be seen how irritated by Jiang Yuanxing's actions.
Jiang Li thought for a while, and then said, "It's okay. Sanshu and the others are connected with Cheng Wang. It can be said that they have taken refuge in Cheng Wang. Now is the critical time. We also have to suffer. The separation of the family is clean, and it also shows to the emperor that the Jiang family has no two minds on the emperor, and it is even more impossible to get along with the emperor."
Jiang Yuanbai sighed, "I think so too."
"Speaking of it," Jiang Li thought of something, and said: "My uncle doesn't know the news of my return to the mansion. I want to go to Yefu to see my uncle and cousin later, and tell them I'm back."
"no."
