Marriage of the Di Daughter

"Xiao Deyin, and everyone in the Shen family." Begonia Road.

The light was dim, and the wick was probably too long. There was a slight wind outside, blowing the flames, and it seemed to be going out in a moment. Jiang Li calmed down, picked up one side of the silver scissors, cut the wick shorter, and the flame then stabilized, and the figure in the room no longer shook.

"Why do you say that?" Jiang Li asked.

Haitang didn't answer, just looked at Jiang Li and asked, "can I trust you?"

Haitang is a calm, rational and decisive girl, otherwise she would not have been cruel to destroy her face to avoid the pursuit of officers and soldiers. But now that she can ask this sentence, it shows that heaven and earth are big. She doesn't know who she can trust anymore. She must find a reason to rely on and let her live.

Jiang Li's heart was sour. Seeing Begonia was like seeing herself once. She said gently, "you can trust me. Like you, I hope the truth will be revealed and Xue Fangfei will be cleared."

Haitang seemed to be deeply moved by the truth in her eyes. After a long time, she slowly said, "that day, at Mrs. Shen's birthday banquet, Xiao Deyin came. She and the young lady are good friends and often play piano together. That afternoon, Xiao Deyin has been drinking with her wife. Her wife is pregnant and is not good at drinking, so she only said to drink a little, but Xiao Deyin pretended to be angry and insisted on having a drink with her."

"I feel a little strange. Mr. Xiao has always been very gentle and considerate. He will never do things like this, especially to young ladies. But young ladies don't think there's anything. I'm a maid, and naturally I can't blame Xiao Deyin."

"Later, the young lady got drunk and I wanted to help her back to her room. Xiao Deyin's servant girl pestered me that I couldn't find the way to the kitchen and wanted to ask for some sobering soup. When I came back from the kitchen, the young lady had disappeared, saying that Mr. Xiao's young lady had returned to her room."

"Then, xiaodeyin came back alone. She said that the young lady was resting in the room. Before long, someone found that there was a man in the young lady's room and had an affair with others."

When Haitang said this, he hated and said, "we are with miss day and night. Naturally, we know that miss is innocent and can never have an affair with others. But the evidence is conclusive. Later, I thought about it for a while, and Xiao Deyin's action in this matter is really unnatural. I wanted to search for some more evidence to confirm that this matter was framed by Xiao Deyin. Before it was done, Miss drove me and Du Juan out." She smiled bitterly, "but even if I told the young lady about this, the young lady may not believe it. After all, Xiao Deyin really has no reason to harm the young lady. She doesn't admire fame and wealth, and has a gentle disposition. The young lady has always been friends with her, and there is no hatred. I can't find the reason to do so."

Jiang Li gently shook her head: "people are unpredictable, everything can become a reason."

"Do you believe me?" The Begonia shook.

"I believe." Jiang Li answered. Of course, she believed that in the days after she lay in the hospital bed and couldn't leave Shen Fu, she also recalled the details of that day countless times. The more you think, the more suspicious Xiao Deyin is. As for why Xiao Deyin did this, she couldn't find the answer in her previous life. After the verification of six skills in this life, she probably caught the hint.

It's nothing more than jealousy.

Jealousy is ugly, especially Xiao Deyin pretends to be aloof and does not eat human fireworks on the surface, but in fact, no one is allowed to surpass her. She pretends her ambition and selfishness under the appearance of generosity and gentleness, which is the most disgusting.

Jiang Li paused and continued, "then, what do you mean by everyone in the Shen family?"

Haitang turned his eyes and suddenly sneered, "don't you think it's strange? The young lady has been arguing about her affair with others, but no one in the Shen family is willing to listen to the young lady's words. Such a thing is not a good reputation for the Shen family, but the Shen family not only didn't make people thoroughly investigate it, but even seemed to be impatient to convict the young lady. Especially the uncle."

Jiang Li's heart jumped fiercely: "Shen Yurong? How is he?"

Hearing Jiang Li calling Shen Yurong by his name, Haitang was slightly stunned, but soon put this doubt behind him, She said, "before the marriage, my uncle took great care of the young lady. After the marriage, my young lady followed him to Yanjing city. She was not familiar with her. Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen were difficult to serve, and our young lady did everything herself. Secretly, I don't know how many wrongs she suffered. My uncle always said sorry, but he never changed anything. He would rather wronged the young lady than accuse Mrs. Shen and Miss Shen a little. That's all," she hated: "Something happened to the young lady. He is the husband of the young lady, so he should trust the young lady without reservation. But what did he do? He didn't say anything and accused the young lady. This is gouging out the young lady's flesh!"

"Others think that he didn't stop the young lady or punish the young lady, that is, his profound expression was ridiculous." Haitang's voice became faster and faster, as if he wanted to vent all his accumulated anger, She said, "it's not at all like this. Our young lady did nothing wrong and lost a child for nothing, but she never saw him do anything. She pretended to be affectionate, and who didn't know that he had already had a different heart!"

The last sentence came out, and Jiang Li's heart was severely shocked. She slowly asked, "what do you mean by your different heart?"

Haitang seemed to understand what he said. He closed his mouth and looked a moment of panic.

Jiang Li didn't give her a chance to be silent. She said, "did you find out that Shen Yurong had an affair with Princess Yongning?"

"How do you know?" Begonia "rubbed" and stood up, his voice could not hide surprise.

Jiang Li knew it clearly in her heart. She patted Haitang's hand, "sit down first and speak slowly."

Haitang sat down again and looked at Jiang Li with defensive and confused eyes. She asked again, "how do you know?"

"After Xue Fangfei's death, I was entrusted to investigate the matter thoroughly and found out that there was an unspeakable relationship between Shen Yurong and Princess Yongning. Even because of this, the Xue family would suddenly suffer a catastrophe, Xue Fangfei would die, and the crime of adultery would be added."

"You... You mean," Haitang was shocked, "did Princess Yongning do it? She wanted to enter the Shen family, so she hurt my miss and the whole Xue family!"

Jiang Li nodded.

"Poisonous woman!"

"Now can you tell me why you said that you knew Shen Yurong had a different heart long ago, maybe you found Shen Yurong and Princess Yongning together long ago?" Jiang Li asked. Jiang Li was already ill in bed and dying when she learned about their affair in her previous life. But I didn't know that the servant girl beside me had already known about it.

"I'm not sure," Haitang calmed down for a moment and slowly recalled, "At that time, my young lady just became pregnant, and my uncle also won the first prize. Everyone in the house was jubilant. I accompanied my young lady to raise the fetus every day. One day, I was shopping outside the house, and I saw a carriage parked in front of a teahouse. The carriage was used by my uncle on weekdays. I thought maybe my uncle was using tea inside, and I was about to leave, so I saw my uncle and a young woman walking out one after another."

"I once accompanied the young lady to a banquet. I met this woman and knew that it was Princess Yongning, the younger sister of King Cheng. My uncle didn't mention anything more, but Princess Yongning's eyes were not quite right. I know the woman's eyes of admiring a person, and Princess Yongning's eyes were clearly full of admiration for my uncle."

"But I don't dare to tell the young lady about it. First, the young lady is raising her fetus, so don't worry about these things. If she has fetal Qi, that's the top priority. Second, it's only my one-sided view. After all, what I saw at that time, my uncle didn't do anything special to Princess Yongning, but Princess Yongning seemed to have affection for her uncle unilaterally."

"I think it's a small matter. My uncle already has our lady as his wife, and the princess can't be a concubine with others. Princess Yongning can't do anything even if she has thoughts on my uncle. But somehow, I can't let it go in my heart. Later I found that there must be princess Yongning where my uncle is at some important banquet. I don't know whether I'm worried, but in fact, there are some people who complain about my uncle 。”

"If my uncle really doesn't want Princess Yongning to pester me, he can have a bad attitude or be colder and teach Princess Yongning to retreat from difficulties. But Princess Yongning is so indomitable, it must be that my uncle's attitude is not cruel enough." Haitang gently exhaled, as if she was still depressed when she thought of these things now. She said, "my miss is soft hearted and always considerate to my uncle. Even if she told her about it, she would probably pretend not to know. And with her body in her arms, she couldn't do anything."

"Who knows, this kind of thing happened..."

After hearing Haitang's words, Jiang Li didn't know how she felt for a moment. She didn't expect some things in her previous life to show up early. But because she showed too much love for Shen Yurong and too much compromise, Haitang dared not say it even if she was suspicious, for fear of hurting her and causing a big mistake.

"If I had known that Princess Yongning harbored evil intentions and my uncle led wolves into the house, I should have told the young lady about Princess Yongning earlier! Let the young lady be careful, so that the young lady won't be caught by Princess Yongning's words without any precaution!"

"You are wrong." Jiang Li said faintly, "even if you tell your young lady early that Princess Yongning loves Shen Yurong, she can't avoid this ending. Because she can be on guard against Princess Yongning, but she can't be on guard against the people beside her bed."

Begonia frowned, "what does this mean?"

"Xue Fangfei didn't die at the hands of Princess Yongning, she died at the hands of Princess Yongning and Shen Yurong. Shen Yurong knew that Princess Yongning would poison his wife, but he stood by, so Xue Fangfei couldn't live. When her husband and outsiders joined hands, she couldn't resist with her heart."

She knew that in her previous life, she was too soft hearted and believed too much in Shen Yurong, and did not understand the meanness and complexity of people's hearts. If she hadn't died once, how could she see thoroughly and how could she make Jiang Li alive soberly and coldly.

"I don't know... I don't know..." Begonia murmured: "After the miss's accident, I had a despicable thought that maybe my uncle would take this opportunity to divorce the miss and marry Princess Yongning. This is what they did in order to make Princess Yongning marry into the Shen family smoothly. But my uncle didn't want to divorce the miss, I thought it was because I thought too much. Although the miss was suffering day by day, I thought that my uncle would always be soft hearted after so many years of husband and wife relationship, as long as this knot was untied, Looking for an opportunity to find out this matter may not be a good one. "

"I didn't expect that he would kill the young lady instead of killing her." As soon as Haitang's voice fell, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Li. The tone was fierce, as if he had to ask an answer. She said, "why did he do this? Why did he have to be so cruel? If it's just for Princess Yongning to marry into the Shen family, it's OK to divorce the young lady. Why do you have to kill all the young ladies and kill the young lady!"

"Because Princess Yongning likes it." In contrast, Jiang Li's tone and expression are much calmer, She said, "if Xue Fangfei lives, she will become a thorn in the heart of Princess Yongning, reminding Shen Yurong that she once belonged to Xue Fangfei. For the possessive Princess Yongning, this is an unforgivable sin. Moreover, if Xue Fangfei lives, she will definitely keep tracking down her adulterer. If it is found out that this matter is framed, it will inevitably cause twists and turns. In order to get rid of all the thorns in her eyes, Xue Fangfei will certainly die."

"And shenyurong, it's even simpler. When he chose to stand by, he was bound to obey any decision made by Princess Yongning. He was not qualified to object, perhaps because he didn't want to object at all."

The truth is cruel, and husband and wife can even face each other like this. Haitang looked at Jiang Li. The strange girl's tone was mild and calm, and she was not as excited as herself, but somehow, in her expression, Haitang noticed a slight familiarity.

It seemed that she had seen it somewhere, which made it difficult for her to feel bad. Haitang found that in the face of this second Miss Jiang, she unconsciously said everything she knew. Her heart told her to be on guard, but when facing Jiang Li, she couldn't help trusting.

Maybe it's the rush and escape in the past year that has made her too hard. When a person is under such pressure, another person suddenly appears, gently holding her hand and telling her that she can share, and their purposes are the same, she will involuntarily want to rely on the past, want to trust, and want to seek an alliance. And refuse to believe whether there is a hidden purpose and utilization.

Jiang Li said, "I think at the beginning, you and Du Juan were suddenly wanted by the government, which was also the work of Princess Yongning. She made friends with Jing Zhaoyin, and it was easy to bribe the government to do these things. She could use the reputation of the government to convict you and kill you, but erase the traces. It can be seen that she was not doing things in a bright light."

"She is really... Too vicious!" Begonia bit her teeth.

"Your young lady let you two out at the beginning, just looking out for Shen's mother's attack, but she didn't expect Princess Yongning to lose her life in vain. It was her thoughtlessness." Jiang Li sighed. She really blamed herself. If she had thought more deeply at the beginning, maybe these two servant girls wouldn't have suffered this bad luck.

"Miss Jiang Er, that's wrong. My miss doesn't have anything wrong with us. Even when she is so dangerous and low skilled, she still wants to protect us. We are just slaves. We were born for the master. How can he de let the master protect us like this? Blame the adulterers and adulterers for doing such murderous activities. If heaven has eyes, they have to be taught to go to eighteen levels of hell!"

"Why pray to heaven?" Jiang Li said faintly, "If heaven had eyes, it wouldn't let such tragic things happen in the world. It's better to rely on yourself."

Haitang looked at her and asked suspiciously, "Miss Jiang Er, although I don't know who entrusted you, I want to ask you a game. Are you going to help our Miss redress?"

"Yes." Jiang Li replied.

Haitang looked at her for a while, suddenly got up and knelt down, kowtowed two heads to Jiang Li, and said, "Haitang is a servant, and has nothing to repay the girl. If the girl can help my miss seek justice, the girl can let Haitang pay any price!"

Xue Fangfei is dead. It is reasonable to say that Haitang is free. She is no longer anyone's servant and can live the life she wants. But she stayed for the Xue family.

Jiang Li picked her up and said, "I don't want you to pay any price. You just need to live well. As long as you live, you are the existence of criminal evidence of shenyurong and Princess Yongning. As long as you are there, the truth will be revealed that day, you are a witness." She said with a smile, "I will try my best to protect you from them finding you and let you live in peace. Only one day, when the Xue family's case returns to light, you can get what you want."

A word, said the Begonia tears. She lived in darkness for too long, so that she didn't expect the light to be like. Because she knew that she couldn't touch the light, she simply didn't want to. Now a person suddenly appeared and told her that the darkness was coming to an end. Walking, you could see the sky light.

Getting a glimmer of light in grief is like a drowning man grasping a straw and unwilling to let go.

Jiang Li spoke with Haitang for a while, and carefully asked what happened to her and Du Juan on the way to avoid the soldiers. Haitang also learned from Jiang Li that Xue Huaiyuan was imprisoned and rescued, and expressed great surprise. She dodged the soldiers in Zaohua village, but she didn't know that such a change had taken place in the Xue family. Jiang Li promised her to take her to Ye's house in a few days and meet Xue Huaiyuan in person.

Jiang Li didn't leave the room until the oil in the lamp was exhausted. The government sent several people to serve Haitang. She was always on guard against people and was easy to be nervous. It was easy for her to have a rest.

Beside the stone table in the yard, Ji Heng sat quietly, with Wen Ji holding an umbrella behind him to block the swirling snowflakes.

When Jiang Li came out, Ji Ji asked Wen Ji to hold an umbrella beside Jiang Li.

Snowflakes fell on his scarlet robe, decorated with colorful, and he said, "finished?"

"Finished."

Ji Xuan raised her eyebrows and said, "you don't look very interested."

Jiang Li reluctantly smiled. No one will be interested in knowing this. She moved her lips, hesitated, and didn't say it. Seeing this, Ji Xuan just smiled and said, "if you want something from me, you can say it directly without hesitation."

"September girl..." Jiang Li said, "can you invite September girl to look at the wound on Haitang's face? I know it's a little tough. The scar is very deep, but I still hope September girl can look at it for her, even if it's to make the scar fade a little."

In order to avoid being chased by the officers and soldiers, Haitang did not hesitate to destroy her appearance, but she was originally a beautiful and lovely girl. Now such a person is neither human nor ghost. Even if Haitang doesn't say it herself, Jiang Li can feel her inner loss. Situ Jiujiu is not only a miracle doctor, but also may have some ways of his own.

"Yes." Ji Heng said, "I'll let her come tomorrow."

"Thank you." Jiang Li stammered her lips, "these days, thanks to the care of the Lord, Jiang Li is very grateful. I don't know what I can do to repay your kindness, i... but I really thank the Lord, sincerely."

"Sincerity is the cheapest. I don't want it." Ji Xuan looked at her with a smile, "it's better for you to sing this play to perfection, and it's not worth my painstaking efforts in it."

Jiang Li smiled and said, "I'll try my best."

"What did you get from her?" Ji asked.

Jiang Li thought for a while and didn't hide it: "how did Yongning and shenyurong frame Xue Fangfei to have an affair with others?"

Ji Xuan's eyes flashed a trace of surprise. She didn't seem to expect such a straightforward answer. After thinking about it, she asked, "what are you going to do?"

"Follow the vine and feel the melon." Jiang Li said, "there is another character in this trap, which is Xiao Deyin, the zither master of Guangwen hall today. According to Haitang, Xiao Deyin may have been the person who drugged Xue Fangfei on Shen's mother's birthday. I think as long as we find Xiao Deyin and convict Xiao Deyin, we can either let Xiao Deyin bite Princess Yongning, or let Yongning mess up and go wrong."

Ji Hu nodded, "you think well. But Yongning is not so easy to deal with."

"I know, but dealing with Yongning is also a force for fighting against Cheng Wang. I can also be regarded as helping the Duke of the country." Jiang Li smiled.

"Help me?" Ji Heng seemed to hear something funny. He said, "why should I attack Cheng Wang?"

"Of course, you don't want to fight against King Cheng. You don't have to. The balance of power between the court and China you want has been achieved before. Now you want your majesty to break the situation. The final outcome is that King Cheng loses and your majesty wins, and King Cheng will naturally become a victim. As for the war that your majesty can win with less losses, your excellency is also willing to see." Jiang Li smiled: "as long as it's the goal you want to achieve, I'm willing to help whenever I can. It's a pity that people talk lightly, and what I can do is just a little." She sighed with regret.

Wen Ji and Zhao Ke pulled corners of their mouths at the same time.

There are few people in the world who can guess Ji Hu's thoughts. Even if they guess, they probably don't dare to say so clearly. How many people in the world can tolerate people who have guessed their thoughts to live in the world? So there are many people who pretend to be confused with understanding, but Jiang Li never hides her shrewdness. Is this fearless or naive.

Ji Xuan put away her smile and quietly looked at Jiang Li. He is the second most beautiful person in the world. When he looks at you deeply, he unconsciously grabs people's hearts and minds. However, his eyes were very cold, just like the snow night in winter, without any warmth.

After a while, he whispered, "you know everything."

Jiang Li doesn't speak.

"Ali, you are surrendering to me." He cocked up his lips and said in a lazy voice, "do you want to tell me all about yourself in order to reassure me?"

"It's true for true." Jiang Li corrected his statement. She had no choice. She had to rely on Ji Heng's strength, which was even more important than the strength of the yuan family. But she has nothing to repay Ji Heng, and Ji Heng doesn't need her to repay. She can only get a little information from the situation she sees now, and then say this information to Ji Heng intact.

Tell Ji Heng: look, I don't disagree. I'm looking for you, so we are allies.

Ji Heng said, "I'll take your sincerity. As for what you can repay me, finish what's in front of you first."

He didn't refuse.

Jiang Li said with a smile, "OK."

After Jiang Li left the government, Zhao Ke also left. Haitang stayed in the government. After all, Haitang's identity is too sensitive. Even now she destroys her appearance, in order to be safe from being discovered by Yongning people, it is still the safest for the government. After all, people in Yongning dare not come to the government house to spy on them.

Ji Heng didn't go back to the house, but still sat in the yard. The snow seemed to be much smaller, and Wen Ji didn't hold an umbrella anymore. In the vast white, only the bright color is compelling, and the red is abrupt.

He still sat, as if he didn't feel cold. Snowflakes kissed his eyelashes, leaving a little fluffy white, but it made him look more charming.

The cunning girl volunteered to surrender, but he also felt confused. Yes, Jiang Li can't repay him anything. If at first it was just to see the play and see what was left after putting this cannibal flower into the flower bed in Yanjing city. Up to now, what he has paid is far more than the attention he needs to put into watching a play.

Is he a person who pays without asking for return? No, he won't spend more energy on things that have no benefits.

Then why did he do this? This is not a particularly wonderful play that people have to watch and will regret for life if they miss it. Even in some ways, it has nothing to do with his life, but unconsciously, he has invested too much, so that many times, he will pay attention unconsciously.

Too much.

Ji Xuan frowned gently.

The beauty frowns, when it is a very beautiful thing, especially in the beauty's amber eyes, there is a little confused doubt, seductive and naive, looking for an unknown answer.

Is the reward for doing this kind of thing a verbal "sincere"?

Sincerity is just useless waste. It can only exist for a period of time, just like flowers in spring. It only opens for a short time and will not last forever. As time passes, the rapid decline becomes ugly and smelly. Rot into mud, and no trace of existence can be found.

He doesn't need sincerity or partners.

He has nothing to ask of the world.
