Rumors about Ji shuran spread in the streets, but the people sent by Jiang Yuanbai failed to find out who said it in the end. The matter seemed to be a pending case, but the outcome was real, and the reputation of the yuan family was affected in the eyes. At least in the court, there are countless cases of impeachment of Jiang Yuanbai for lax governance.

The people of the right prime minister took the opportunity to spread all kinds of rumors against Jiang Yuanbai. At this time, the more clarification, the more trapped in the center of rumors. Jiang Yuanbai simply said he was ill and did not go to court. He was silent a lot. Jiang Yuanping was also implicated a lot, and the atmosphere in Jiang's house was not very good.

In such a complex situation, the winter solstice of Yanjing city this winter came quietly.

It snows heavily on the winter solstice. Tong'er stood at the gate of the yard and said, "Qingcheng Mountain has never seen such heavy snow. It's really beautiful."

The common sight of people in the north is very novel to tong'er. After all, the two have lived in the temple for many years, and it is rare to see such a picture wrapped in silver. Tong'er asked Jiang Li, "girl, are you going to Ye Fu today?"

"Go." Jiang Li laughed, "but before that, go somewhere else."

"Somewhere else?" Tong'er was puzzled.

Jiang Li smiled and didn't answer.

It snowed heavily outside. Even the vendors who often set up stalls on weekdays did not set up stalls today. The streets are deserted, and even pedestrians are very rare. On the thick snow, only the carriage drove past, leaving two deep ruts and messy horseshoe shapes.

When Jiang Li left the house, the waiter of the concierge moved his lips, and finally did not dare to dissuade him. Everyone knows that now the second young lady in the big room has the final say. The old lady allows the second young lady to go in and out at will without reporting. Do they have to stop these servants?

Going out of the house was very smooth. Jiang Li went to the Yanyu Pavilion in egret Bay, where Xue Zhao slept for a long time.

Tong'er and Bai Xue still have an impression of this place. Jiang Li once came to Tongxiang before returning last time. I heard that Yanyu Pavilion is the best place to watch Yanyu. It rained last time. It doesn't rain now. Is it possible that the snow scenery of Yanyu Pavilion is good? So Jiang Li will go today while she is interested?

Jiang Li let the servant girls wait outside the yard. She went into the backyard of Yanyu Pavilion. Under the peach tree, Xue Zhao's grave was still lying quietly. It's almost covered with snow. Hurry up, if there's not half of the inscription exposed outside, I'm afraid there's no trace at all.

Since Jiang Li returned to Tongxiang, no one has worshipped in this place. Jiang Li stared helplessly and couldn't help feeling sad. Leaving Xue Zhao here alone made her very uncomfortable.

She bent down and found an old broom from the side to sweep away the snow in front of the tomb and sweep out a small open space. Take the rag in the basket and wipe the stone tablet carefully, then take out the incense for fruit and put it on the vacated space.

Even now she can leave the house at will, but she can't come to Yanyu Pavilion at will. The Ye family is at least her maternal ancestor's family, and Xue Zhaoke has nothing to do with Miss Jiang Er baganzi. If someone sees it, it's not good to have something wrong with the lawsuit for Xue Huaiyuan a few days ago.

But on the winter solstice, in the past, Xue Zhao, she and Xue Huaiyuan always lived in the house together. Xue Zhao will roast venison from hunting in the mountains, and Xue Huaiyuan will allow them to drink on that day. So a clear plum wine was simmering on the stove. Xue Zhao said his Jianghu dream with hands and feet, and she echoed a few words. Xue Huaiyuan laughed connivantly.

Things are different from people, it is still winter, but people die, scattered, crazy crazy. Jiang Li can't bring Xue Huaiyuan to Xue Zhao's tomb yet. She can only come alone.

She sat in front of the tomb, put the venison wrapped in oil paper, and poured a cup of plum wine for Xue Zhao, just like those years in the past.

After sitting for a while, she stood up, patted the snow particles on her clothes, and turned away.

Tong'er and Bai Xue were waiting outside, all cold. It was easy to see Jiang Li coming out, and they didn't ask where the bamboo basket Jiang Li picked up when she came, but said, "are you back?"

Jiang Li nodded.

"Then go. I can't stay outside for long." Tong'er stuffed the stove into Jiang Li's hand and helped Jiang Li onto the carriage.

Next, Jiang Li went to Ye Fu.

In Ye's mansion, ye Mingyu and his Jianghu brothers are eating meat and drinking. When the porter came to report that Jiang Li had come, ye Mingyu panicked for a moment. The room was full of chaos. How can he meet people? Seeing this, ye Shijie shook his head and got up to see Jiang Li first.

Jiang Li didn't see ye Mingyu in the room. Ye Shijie came alone and asked, "why isn't my uncle here?"

"After drinking, I knew you were coming and I was changing my clothes." Ye Shijie has a headache. Listening to the voice calling for wine orders in the room, and then looking at Ye Shijie's helpless look, Jiang Li knew it clearly in her heart. Ye Mingyu was originally rough, but ye Shijie was extremely restrained. Now ye Mingyu has moved the Jianghu to the mansion, which is naturally not a happy thing for ye Shijie.

Jiang Li looked behind and said with a smile, "uncle is open-minded, and you have to bear more."

"I know." YeShiJie replied, "uncle has always been like this." He looked at Jiang Li: "why did you come so early?"

"Today's winter solstice, come and see you." Jiang Li asked Bai Xue to take out the dessert made in advance, "by the way, I'll send you some cakes."

Ye Shijie took it over, and a strange feeling surged in his heart. Jiang Li's expression was very gentle and her attitude was very natural, as if she were treating her family. When the word "family" was reflected in his mind, ye Shijie was inspired, as if he had been hit by something.

Just when he was a little bleary, ye Mingyu changed his clothes and came out. I think he was drunk when he was with his brothers. Although he changed his clothes, he still smelled of alcohol. Fortunately, he was still sober. Seeing Jiang Li, he said, "ah Li, you're here! Go in and sit down?"

"My uncle has guests, so I won't stay much longer." Jiang Li also laughed. She was a girl. There were all strong men here. She didn't care. I'm afraid these men would be uncomfortable.

"I brought some things for you. By the way, I'll see Xue Xiancheng." Jiang Li said with a smile, "after reading it, go."

"How..." Ye Mingyu wanted to persuade, but was interrupted by Ye Shijie. Ye Shijie said, "well, it's really inconvenient for you to be here today. Come back when there are no outsiders in the house another day."

He bit the words "no outsiders" very hard and glanced at Ye Mingyu.

Ye Mingyu felt his nose and laughed, "what, then go to see Xue Xiancheng quickly? The little girl situ came to have a few injections these days. The old man is much better. He can eat a full bowl of rice every day. He is in good spirits!"

As he spoke, he took Jiang Li to Xue Huaiyuan's yard.

Xue Huaiyuan is concentrating on watching people doing shadow puppets. It is about a gadget that ye Mingyu specially found for him. He looks very energetic and laughs happily from time to time. Jiang Li couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

There is no sign of lucidity.

Ye Shijie seemed to see what she thought in her heart and said, "you don't have to be too anxious. Miss situ said that Xue Xiancheng's disease is not easy to cure, and he has to slowly figure it. And as uncle said, Xue Xiancheng's body has improved a lot these days. When he first came to Yanjing from Tongxiang, he was extremely weak. Now he has almost recovered."

Jiang Li slowly calmed down, shook her head and said, "I'm too anxious."

"I know." Ye Mingyu scratched his head, "you think old Xue is more important than your father, of course, you are interested in him. Don't wait until old Xue is well, you recognize him as an adoptive father. You pay so much for him, he won't refuse. As for your father, don't worry, I'll say!" After saying this, he hated and said, "I haven't settled with Ji shuran about that matter yet. In those years, the red mouth and white teeth were all up to Ji shuran alone. Where did you put my Ye family?"

Speaking of this, ye Mingyu is gnashing his teeth again.

After Ji shuran's story came out, ye Mingyu and ye Shijie naturally knew it for the first time. There is no doubt that Jiang Yuanbai was severely scolded. If Ji shuran hadn't died, he would have to go to the Ji family and ask for an explanation. Finally, Jiang Li came out and calmed Ye Mingyu down.

But knowing that Jiang Li had been wronged so much, ye Mingyu didn't want to see the Jiang family any more. He even had the idea of letting Jiang Li leave the Jiang family and return to the Ye family. Finally, he was stopped by the more rational Ye Shijie.

"Adoptive father?" Jiang Li's heart moved. She had never thought of this, but ye Mingyu was used to wandering in the Jianghu. It was common to worship a target and recognize a godfather on weekdays, so he was already used to it. The speaker had no intention of listening. Ye Mingyu also said casually, but Jiang Li secretly wrote it down. She is too obsessed with Xue Huaiyuan, which will inevitably lead to gossip in the future, but speaking of being her adoptive father, it seems that everything can be easily solved.

However, before that, unless Xue Huaiyuan is restored to his senses first, even if the yuan family feels guilty about themselves, they will not let Jiang Li recognize a man without a mind as an adoptive father.

Thinking of this, it seems that there is a new direction ahead, and Jiang Li's mood is also much easier. When talking with Ye Mingyu again, the smile was more real.

Ye Shijie was vaguely aware of the change in Jiang Li's attitude, but he didn't know why. Just looking at Jiang Li's dimple like a flower, it's rare that she didn't have a scheming relaxed appearance. After a pause, she still swallowed the question to her mouth.

Jiang Li was in a very good mood until she left Ye Fu.

Bai Xue asked, "girl, are you going back to the mansion now?"

"Go back." Jiang Li looked at the sky. In fact, it was still early. I should have stayed in Ye Fu for a long time, but because ye Mingyu's brothers and guests were there, Jiang Li left first because it was inconvenient. The snow hasn't stopped yet, and it's too cold to stay outside. Since there's nothing wrong, it's better to go back first.

Tong'er answered happily, thinking about going back to fangfeiyuan surrounded by a warm stove, which is much better than being frozen outside. Several people were about to get on the carriage when they heard an eager voice behind them: "Miss Jiang er?"

Jiang Li looked back and saw that they were Wen Renyao and situ Jiujiu, whom she had seen not long ago. It was Wen Renyao who stopped Jiang Li.

Seeing Jiang Li, Wen Renyao came up and said with a smile, "is this the second girl Jiang who just came out of Ye Fu?"

Jiang Li nodded and said to situ Jiujiu, "is Miss situ going to Ye Fu to treat Xue Xiancheng?"

"No." Situ Jiujiu replied, "acupuncture is not necessary for the past three days."

Jiang Li said with a smile, "I was wrong. Where are you going?" Meeting situ Jiujiu in front of Ye mansion, Jiang Li really thought that situ Jiujiu had come to treat Xue Huaiyuan, but she didn't expect it.

She just asked casually, and didn't really want to know the answer. After all, situ septemberwen Renyao and Ji Heng have a long relationship. Jiang Li doesn't care about what they are going to do, nor can he.

Who knows, Wen Renyao immediately replied, "we're going to the government."

Situ Jiujiu gave a white look, and he probably felt that his heartless attitude was really unpleasant. Jiang Li was also surprised for a moment, and then said, "so, it won't delay you." She stepped aside to let situ Jiujiu and Wen Renyao go first.

Who knows, Wen Renyao's handsome face, with a particularly warm smile, said: "don't delay, don't delay, we just go to the government house to visit the door. Today is not the winter solstice, and we just went to eat. Miss Jiang Er is going back? It's so early, why don't we go to the government house for dinner?"

Jiang Li: "...."

She was puzzled. How did Wen Renyao's brain grow? Did the relationship between her and Ji Heng look so familiar that she could walk around each other's house at will? Of course, Ji Heng can come to Jiang's house to walk around. That's because Ji Heng is willful, not because of their private friends.

Jiang Li politely refused, "no need."

"Why are you polite?" Wen Renyao continued to laugh and said, "let's go. It's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Since we meet on the road, it's fate. Everyone is friends, and eating together is not a big deal. I think Miss Jiang Er is also a happy person, so don't stick to these."

Jiang Li: "... I think the childe may have crossed the relationship between me and my grandfather. We are not friends."

I thought this sentence had clearly expressed my attitude, but Wen Renyao seemed to be used to it. "I understand his temper. No one in the world is willing to be friends with him. But just treat you as if you are not his friend, but my friend's head office! Don't be polite. Don't feel embarrassed to go if Ji Heng didn't invite you to your house. Ji Heng didn't invite me either! I still didn't go?"

Jiang Li: "...."

She really has nothing to say about this well-known childe.

Situ Jiujiu on one side really couldn't see it anymore, stared at Wen Renyao, looked at Jiang Li again, thought for a while, and said, "if you're OK, you can also go to the government house to have a look. I heard about your family a few days ago, and Ji Heng was also involved in this matter in private. Maybe you can talk about it."

Situ Septembers reminds Jiang Li of something. It's about why Li Bin is safe, and where Taoist Chongxu is now. Does emperor Hong Xiao know that Taoist Chongxu is a liar. She was going to ask Zhao Ke about this. Now think about it, it may be more convenient to ask Ji Heng. Zhao Ke was guarding Jiang's house day and night, but Ji Xuan could know the news in the palace.

At this moment, when Wen Renyao meets, she can take advantage of the opportunity to go to the government, that is... Come uninvited. She really can't be as indifferent as Wen Renyao.

"It's all right. You can say that Wen Renyao tied you up." Situ Jiujiu seemed to see what she was thinking and said faintly.

Hearing Renyao's spirit perked up, Wen Yan not only didn't refute, but laughed and said, "I'm glad to help."

So it was so inexplicably decided that Jiang Li had just left Ye's mansion and was turned on the road to the government.

In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Jiang Li didn't take the carriage of Jiang mansion, but took the carriage with situ and the two people. Along the way, Wen Renyao was very talkative and changed his way to talk to Jiang Li. By contrast, Jiang Li seemed much silent. It was not a long journey, and Jiang Li felt very tired. Even the most noisy Jiang Jingrui in the Jiang family is really "quiet" compared with Wen Renyao. I really don't know how this childe, who looks like a jade, is so warm-hearted. Jiang Li vowed that as long as Wen Renyao kept his mouth shut and stood on the street without saying anything, he would attract more eyes than he would talk to the girl himself.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of the government house, Wen Renyao jumped down, and tong'er and Bai Xue helped Jiang Li out of the carriage. Seeing that Ren Yao was already familiar, he asked the porter to open the door quickly.

You're welcome, just like at home.

The gate of the government opened.

Before and after two lifetimes, Jiang Li was the first time to enter the government. Rumors about the government, or gloomy fear, or fragrant romantic, a good mansion, but like a fairy holy land, or like the abyss of hell, is unbearable legend. When Jiang Li walked in, there was only one feeling, very beautiful.

Unlike the Ye family, which is rich and powerful, and the yuan family, which is elegant and elegant, the government is as gorgeous as its owner. In the cold winter, the garden of your house is still full of colorful flowers. The snow covered the branches, and about the residual snow that had been carefully brushed away and bent the petals. The more white the snow was, the more gorgeous the spring was tinged in a piece of silver. Early spring or severe winter makes people confused. Just like his master, it is always confusing whether he is affectionate or ruthless.

Wen Renyao had seen this for a long time. Seeing Jiang Li carefully staring at the flowers along the way, he said, "this house is full of Ji Hu's baby flowers up and down. Don't step on them. Oh, it's not because they are too precious and Ji Hu spent a lot of money transplanting them. If you step on them, you will make you into flower mud, because most of these flowers are poisonous. If you don't get them carefully, you'll be worried about your life."

"Toxic?" Jiang Li looked back in surprise.

"Yes." The answer was situ Jiujiu, "the more gorgeous things are, the more poisonous they are, and so are flowers."

Jiang Li stopped talking. On second thought, it seemed to be in line with Ji Heng's temperament. Ji Heng is not willing to spend a lot of money to support him just because he doesn't have it. Besides, he himself said that he only wanted something valuable. Toxicity is the value attached to these flowers.

Go through the corridor, flower beds, and bypass most of the walkways. Jiang Li even saw a martial arts training ground. It is very rare to open such a large martial arts training ground in the government. There are some weapons and arrow targets scattered around. Wen Renyao, like a master, said, "this is the territory of the old general. Ji Heng was afraid that the old general would hurt his flowers by playing with a knife at home, so he specially created a piece of land for the old general."

Jiang Li: "..." I owe the government enough.

There seems to be no female relatives in the house, but really, as rumored outside, all the young men who come and go are bright and handsome, and look very pleasing to the eye. However, these servants should have undergone rigorous training. When seeing and hearing people bring people here, they are not squinting. They do their own things without looking at them more.

Finally, we came to the main hall.

The mansion is also very large. Just after walking to the main hall, I heard a burst of laughter inside, like a flood of bells, which was exciting.

"Old man -" I heard people kissing and shouting.

Jiang Li stepped into the door and saw an old man in armor sitting in the middle, holding a spear with a red tassel and holding a flower. Hearing Wen Renyao talking, the old man turned around. The gun pole was too long and almost poked Wen Renyao in the face.

"Yao boy, when did you return to Yanjing?" The old man stared at situ Jiujiu again and said, "Oh, September is coming!"

Wen Renyao whispered to Jiang Li, "this is the old general, Ji Heng's grandfather."

Jiang Li suddenly realized that for the old general, she only heard his name but didn't see him. What she could know was the story of the old general's bravery and good fighting when she was young. At present, the rumors are true. At least at such an old age, they can be full of confidence. They should not be fake tough guys.

However... The old general and Wen Renyao and situ Jiujiu also seem to be familiar. Jiang Li has another understanding of their relationship with the Ji family.

Wen Renyao whispered with Jiang Li, but all of them fell into the old general's hand. He saw that there was someone around Wen Renyao. He walked a few steps closer, looked at Jiang Li, and suddenly said, "Yao boy, I haven't seen you for a few years, and your daughter-in-law has it? Which girl is this? It looks very smart, how can I take a fancy to you?"

Wen Renyao: "...."

Jiang Li: "...."

The old man is really rude.

Wen Renyao said, "what are you talking about? What's the meaning of taking a fancy to me? What's wrong with me? Don't put on this look. There are countless girls Beiyan wants to marry me. Why am I not decent in your old mouth?"

"But pull you down." The old general mercilessly pierced Wen Renyao's lie, "just you, don't say anything else. My grandson is better than you in everything. He doesn't have a daughter-in-law, so you have a daughter-in-law. Isn't this a girl blind? What is it?"

Seeing the conversation getting more and more crooked, no one actually explained his identity. Jiang Li only stood up by herself and said helplessly, "old general, I'm not Wenren's wife."

There was a moment of silence in the room. Suddenly, general Ji burst into a burst of laughter, which was loud across the room and could be heard by people in the yard. He said, "I'll tell you!"

Hearing that people are far away, their faces are red.

"Wench, who are you? How can you come to your house with Yao boy? Are you a friend of September?" Ji Laojun asked.

"Not my friend." Situ Jiujiu denied very simply, "it's someone Ji Heng knows."

"Ji Chen knew..." Ji Lao general's eyes lit up, looking at Jiang Li as if a poor man saw a pile of gold. He stepped closer and asked, "girl, what's the relationship between you and Ji Chen smelly boy?"

"Grandfather." Just when Jiang Li was confused by the eager attitude of old general Ji, an indifferent voice came to mind outside the door. Looking back, Ji Chen came in expressionless.

On weekdays, he either smiles like a smile, or simply smiles seductively. Even if it is fake, he has never put on such a cold posture. However, in such a posture, there is also a kind of ease that our talents have and take off our guard.

"Oh, why is Miss Jiang Er here?" A voice came out from behind Ji Heng. This person Jiang Li knew. It was Kong Liu. He held a plate of snacks in his hand, and Lu Ji was immediately behind him.

Why is everyone here? Jiang Li only felt headache. Did she go out today without looking at the almanac? If she really wanted to talk to Ji Heng, it was in private and she didn't want others to know. But what's going on? The government is setting up a family dinner, so now everyone knows that she came to Ji Heng uninvited.

"Girl, what do you want from our ah Hong?" General Ji will not let go.

Ji Heng threw the dish in his hand on the table and said, "I asked her to come." Without waiting for general Ji to say more, he said coldly, "ask more, you can't eat."

General Ji stopped talking at once.

Jiang Li glanced at Ji Peng, and felt that he was very strange today, as if he was in a bad mood. Kong Liu looked at Jiang Li staring at Ji Peng, and then came close to her and said, "what's the matter with Miss Jiang er?"

"Nothing," said Jiang Li. "I just feel that the Lord is very unhappy today. Is it... Because I'm here?"

"No." Kong Liu obviously knew the reason, and enthusiastically solved Jiang Li's doubts: "when he cooked, he was always in a bad mood."

"Does he cook?" Jiang Li was shocked.

"Yes." Kong Liu took it for granted, as if it was a matter of course. It was only natural. He pointed to the table: "he did it all. The old man ordered it. You have to do it if you don't like it."

Jiang Li noticed that the long table in the middle of the main hall was full of all kinds of dishes, which looked good in color, smell and taste. It was about time for dinner, and Kong Liu motioned to Jiang Li for the plate in his hand, "the Duke of the country made the dessert himself, try one?"

Jiang Li couldn't help looking into the plate along Kong Liu's action, but she saw that the dim sum in the plate was beautifully made, with lovely color and attractive aroma, which was even more beautiful than that made by the most popular pastry shop in Yanjing city.

She felt that all this was ridiculous, and even gave rise to the illusion that everything was not true.

She looked at Ji Heng again. Ji Heng noticed her eyes and glanced at Jiang Li faintly.

At that glance, there was no smile used to disguise. It could even be called a light cloud, but it cooled Jiang Li's heart.

Er, she seems to know another secret of Ji Heng. Will she be silenced?

---------------

yes! You are not mistaken! Guogongye's skill points cover cooking! Sao Langjian's heart is a good man at home. Is there any!

I suddenly found that general Ji = faggot general
