Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 130 Part 1: Master
“I think she is really possessed. Otherwise, mother, why did she become different after returning from Mount Qingcheng? Mount Qingcheng could turn a fool into a clever person, then those nuns and monks are immortals, right? Perhaps she was occupied by whatever fox spirits coming to our house to make trouble.”
Jiang You Yao’s unintentional words made Ji Shuran really ponder deeply.
In fact, her suspicion about Jiang Li was not just one or two days. When Ji Shuran entered the door in that year, she could see that Jiang Li was stupid. Ye Zhen Zhen pa.s.sed away early and no one guided her in anything. After Ji Shuran pa.s.sed the door she managed to coax Jiang Li into obedience.
Jiang Li was impetuous and did not use her brain. It’s actually fine to raise a person like this in the residence, but afterwards, Ji Shuran saw the marriage with Zhou Yan Bang. In order to clear the road for Jiang You Yao, at this time, Ji Shuran also looked for ways to break Jiang Li’s affair.
Who knew whether Jiang Li was aware of that secret or not, which made Ji Shuran anxious. She did not hesitate to use that lump of meat in her belly precisely to make Jiang Yuan Bai reject Jiang Li and not willing to listen to Jiang Li’s words.
Jiang Yuan Bai really spurned Jiang Li and sent her to Mount Qingcheng. In the past eight years, the entire Jiang family did not show any concern about Jiang Li, not paying attention to her life or death in Mount Qingcheng. Ji Shuran was astonished at Jiang Li’s tenacity to live, under that kind of situation, she had unexpectedly still lived on. However, as Jiang You Yao and Zhou Yan Bang’s marriage was approaching, she was afraid that Jiang Yuan Bai would remember this daughter. Therefore she dispatched someone to do something in secret.
The person who reported back told her that Jiang Li had jumped into the lake and that no one could see any clues of their movements. Jiang Li was dying at that time and would not be able to pa.s.s the summer. Ji Shuran was relieved, but this relief did not last long as Jiang Li walked out from the Gate of h.e.l.l and to her surprise, returned alive. Not only that, the love affair between He Lin temple’s Master and Jing An Master was exposed. Chengde Magistrate’s madam, Madam Liu, suddenly stepped out, Emperor Hong Xiao personally beat Jiang Yuan Bai….. One by one came, catching her off guard, messing up all her plans and Jiang Li safely returned to the capital like this.
From that moment on, everything started to get out of control. She stole Jiang You Yao’s limelight in the examination field, Zhou Yan Bang was suddenly found together with Jiang Yu’e, the Ye family’s young master inexplicably became an official, and now, the whole Yanjing sang her praises….. Jiang Li seemed to have changed into another person. In front of this 16 year old girl, Ji Shuran could not get any benefit at all and suffered losses again and again.
It really wasn’t because she turned stupid, rather, it was Jiang Li who had turned smarter. She became cunning and scheming, yet her face was still warm and kind. Every time Ji Shuran saw her eyes, she felt cold all over.
How could there be such a girl that is very good in her disguise?
Aside from protesting on behalf of Jiang You Yao, Ji Shuran also had her own considerations. After Jiang Li returned to Yanjing, she had never mentioned that thing. Ji Shuran thought, perhaps Jiang Li did not hear what she said that year. However….. She could not afford it, that secret was like a constant danger to her, she could not take any risk. Jiang Li was getting more and more difficult to deal with now, if she was not eliminated quickly, afraid it would be even more difficult when she wanted to make her move in the future.
Jiang You Yao’s words reminded Ji Shuran.
Jiang Li’s temperament had changed greatly since her return from Mount Qingcheng and was proficient in all subjects. She took care of that Tongxiang County Deputy, Xue Huaiyuan, very gently and carefully, there must be an inside story between the two of them. It did not matter if it could not be found out, as long as there was a doubtful point on her, Jiang Li must not think of coming out unscathed.
But how to point it out, how to reach the best goal, she still could not figure it out.
“I have to go to the palace for a visit.” Ji Shuran stood up.
“What are you doing entering the palace?” Jiang You Yao asked.
Ji Shuran smiled, “Of course it’s to see your aunt, Li-pin.”
In regards to killing people without seeing blood, Li-pin was an expert on it. Li-pin’s help.was needed to come up with a strategy.
……
In the palace, Li-pin was sitting in the hall watching someone playing the qin.
Sitting opposite her was Ming Yi Hall’s female teacher, Xiao De Yin, the current number one qin player in Yanjing.
Although Xiao Deyin refused to enter the palace, she was on good friendly terms with Li-pin, and occasionally came into the palace to chat with Li-pin. It was precisely for this reason that although Xiao Deyin was not a qin player in the palace, the people in the palace would be respectful to her when they saw her.
After the song was over, Li-pin stroked her palms, smiled and said: “You have the leisure to come to my place today, why didn’t you go to Her Royal Highness the Princess?”
Princess Yongning also liked the sound of Xiao De Yin’s qin, and invited Xiao De Yin to play in her mansion from time to time.
“Her Royal Highness the princess has been in a bad mood these days, so it’s better not to disturb.” Xiao De Yin said with a smile.
When Li-pin heard this, she asked, “Is it because of the Xue family’s case?”
Xiao De Yin nodded, “Correct.”
Li-pin sighed: “Yongning has also suffered an unjustified disaster. Out of the blue, how could the Xue family’s case involve her. Now there are rumors outside, and she has to pay attention.”
Xiao De Yin said, “Indeed, this time, Miss Jiang second really went too far. Xue’s case was originally complicated, without any evidence, yet it also pulled Princess Yongning into this muddy water. It was just a matter of one sentence for Miss Jiang second, but for Princess Yongning, she could not explain clearly.”
“Yes.” Li-pin sighed, “Heard that during the palace discussion, Miss Jiang second also mentioned Xue Huaiyuan’s relatives. When she brought up Xue Fang Fei’s name. Master Shen from the Secretariat was also present, he seemed to be extremely embarra.s.sed.
When the words “Xue Fang Fei” were spoken, Xiao Deyin’s expression was unnatural for a moment.
Fortunately, Li-pin did not continue this subject and said, “that Miss Jiang second is also awesome, without mentioning this palace discussion, she also took the limelight in the examination last time. You have also heard her playing the qin, it was said to be pretty good.”
This time, Xiao De Yin’s face became even more unsightly. It should be made aware that after the examination, many people compared Jiang Li’s “Hu Ji Eighteen Beats” to hers. If it weren’t for the fact that she and Jiang Li were not in the same stage, she was afraid that many people would ask her to compare with Jiang Li. Moreover, even if they didn’t say so, others also said that the future first qin master in Yanjing must be Jiang Li.
