Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 131 Part 1: Aunt

Jiang Li’s heart eased, probably from having guessed Ji Shuran’s plan.

The worst thing was to be in a passive position, not knowing what one was going to face and had no preparation. However, with knowledge, no matter what predicament had to be confronted, a chance could still be found by following the trails, there would still be a way.

Jiang Li knew Princess Yongning had already stared at her after Xue’s case. Moreover, no need to say what Shen Yurong was thinking on that side. The domineering Princess Yongning would definitely look for a reason to trouble her in the future. Before this, if the mother and daughter stayed peaceful, Jiang Li also would not spend much time on this. However, Ji-shi was stubborn and never changed her nature, therefore, Jiang Li felt that leaving Ji-shi in the Jiang residence was not a good idea.

She had to get rid of these idlers.

Zhou Ke had left, Jiang Li sat on the couch and a question floated in her heart. Why did Ji-shi want to pursue her relentlessly? Even if Ye Zhen Zhen left a child behind, when she reached the age, she could be sent out to marry, there really was no need to kill her. Even if she wanted to grab the marriage with Zhou Yan Bang, there was no need to put Jiang Li to death. Back then, it was known to everyone that Jiang Li harmed the mother and killed her younger brother, there was no room for rebuttal as everyone had seen it. However, prior to this, it was said that Jiang Li and Ji Shuran got along harmoniously.

There was no uncalled hatred, though afterwards the rumors said that Jiang Li was deliberately calculating, pretending to be amicable with her stepmother. Up to the point when the stepmother was pregnant then she pushed Ji Shuran to miscarry. However, Jiang Li felt that she was too young at that time, and with the environment surrounding her, there was no one who could instruct her to scheme like this. How did she reach this stage, even Ji Shuran could be schemed by her.

Jiang Li felt there was something amiss in this matter, but since it had occurred a long time ago, many events and situations were no longer good to investigate. Nowadays, Ji Shuran pressed hard step by step, which actually made Jiang Li determined to investigate this matter carefully. Supposed there was still a secret hidden in this matter, it would be a tool to deal with Ji Shuran.

Regardless, she would go to Zhao Ke to ask him tomorrow.

Soon, Jiang Li fell asleep while thinking of this.

In Bright Jade residence, Jiang You Yao was also unable to sleep.

Her servant girl, Jin Hua, was walking along the corridor following Jiang Li’s servant girl, Tong’er, closely today. Tong’er dropped a post and did not realize it. Jin Hua picked up the post and opened it to take a look. Unexpectedly, it was a post for Jiang Li from the Ningyuan Marquis Residence. Without delay, she gave this post to Jiang You Yao.

Jiang You Yao could not sleep and caressed the post repeatedly. The post was actually not written by Zhou Yan Bang, rather, it was Jiang Yu’e. Thinking of Jiang Yu’e, Jiang You Yao hated so much she was fuming with anger. Zhou Yan Bang originally should be Jiang Yu’e’s brother in law, but now he became her husband. Her sweetheart was now hugging Jiang Yu’e to sleep peacefully every night. Although Jiang Yu’e was just a concubine and Zhou Yan Bang’s main wife was Shen Ruyun, thinking that Jiang Yu’e, the disdainful daughter of the third branch who she had never put in her eyes in the past, actually snatched her husband, Jiang You Yao could not help wanting to tear Jiang Yu’e to pieces.

However, right now, Jiang Yu’e was already brought into the Ningyuan Marquis’s residence. Soon, Shen Ruyun and Zhou Yan Bang’s marriage would also happen. Jiang You Yao had no way at all. She wanted to look for Zhou Yan Bang, but she did not know how she should clearly explain to Zhou Yan Bang. She did not believe Zhou Yan Bang did not have even a slight affection for her. If it weren’t for being calculated, they should have been good together.

“Jiang Li…..” Jiang You Yao looked at the post in front of her. Jiang Yu’e and Jiang Li never dealt with each other, and she always stood by her side. Why did she invite Jiang Li to gather after she married into the Zhou family’s house? No need to mention her, after all Jiang You Yao injured Jiang Yu’e and caused a scar to be left on her forehead. The two sisters were not even willing to maintain a peaceful surface. However, Jiang Yu’e did not even want to meet with her blood related sister, Jiang Yuyan, let alone invite Jiang Li. This was worth thinking over.

At the palace feast, Ji Shuran once said that originally the ones calculated were Jiang Li and Ye Shijie. But somehow, the ones that met with mishap were Zhou Yan Bang and Jiang Yu’e. Jiang Li must have done something in the middle and Jiang Li probably reached some kind of an agreement with Jiang Yu’e. Only in this way would Jiang Yu’e be willing. The appearance of this post now proved that Ji Shuran’s conjecture was right.

Only if Jiang Li and Jiang Yu’e had friendship in secret would the current noisy situation be possible.

Jiang You Yao did not tell Ji Shuran about the post. She received the post and had no intention to return it to Jiang Li. She decided to reply to the post to Jiang Yu’e using Jiang Li’s name, changing the time and meeting place to see what Jiang Yu’e and Jiang Li were planning in the end.

She must expose them.

……

The residents of a few courtyards in the Jiang residence passed through this night in contemplation. When Jiang Li woke up, it was a rare day when the sun came out during Yanjing’s winter.

The snow in the courtyard had not melted, when one lay their eyes on the snow, tiny warm lusters appeared, warming people’s hearts. As usual, Jiang Li planned to go to Xue Huaiyuan after eating. Emperor Hong Xiao already said that he would recruit divine doctors from all over the world to treat Xue Huaiyuan to see if there was any opportunity to awaken Xue Huaiyuan’s sanity.

These days, there was an endless stream of doctors who came to Ye residence, and there were even palace doctors sent by Emperor Hong Xiao, but after coming to see Xue Huaiyuan, they shook their heads one after another, saying that he could not be treated.

Jiang Li was very disappointed at the beginning, but Ye Mingyu comforted her, no matter what, it was a good thing that Xue Huaiyuan was still alive, and there was hope if he was still alive. Moreover, the current Xue Huaiyuan did not have to remember those dreadful things during his imprisonment, nor did he have to know the bad news of the tragic death of his children, so he might be happier. When he regained his senses and accepted the great blow that fate had brought him, he might feel the preciousness of those days when he could not remember anything.

Listening to Ye Ming Yu saying so, Jiang Li felt complicated. On one hand, she wished her father could recover, so in this life and at this age, they could still recognize each other. On the other hand, she felt it was too cruel to let her father recall all those unjust things. She could not treat a pitiful, old man like this.
