Marriage of the Di Daughter


Ye Ming Yu dismounted and immediately saw Jiang Li and a beautiful man standing together. This man was dressed in red from head to toe, overly gorgeous, yet did not have a feminine air. Though he had a smile on his face, there’s a feeling that his pair of phoenix eyes was not smiling. He had gone through many days of dagger licking blood, Ye Ming Yu’s instinct sensed danger and unconsciously wanted to pull Jiang Li behind him, away from this man.

“Uncle Ming Yu.” Jiang Li called out.


“Ah Li, this is…..” Ye Ming Yu looked at Ji Heng. He couldn’t remember when such a person arrived at Xiangyang city.


Jiang Li hesitated for a moment before saying: “This is the son who lives in the house next door, we’ve met several times.”


In the end, she did not say Ji Heng’s ident.i.ty.


Ji Heng laughed and said to Jiang Li with a somewhat meaningful look: “The secret is back, quickly go inside, second miss.”


Because Ye Ming Yu was present, it’s not convenient for Jiang Li to say more. She nodded at Ji Heng and followed Ye Ming Yu to enter the Ye residence.


Wen Ji saw that the two people had left and asked: “Master, do you need me…..”


Ji Heng held the fan and said: “No need.” Glancing at the Ye residence’s tightly closed gate, he laughed. “Without seeing, I know what she’s going to do. Xiangyang is going to be turned upside down.”


……


Ye Ming Yu and Jiang Li returned to Jiang Li’s courtyard.


Tong’er and Bai Xue brewed tea for Ye Ming Yu. Upon seeing that there’s no one else, he quickly asked: “Ah Li, who’s the man just now? Though you did not say clearly, I can tell that he’s not mediocre. The two of you also seem to have a close relationship.”


Jiang Li saw that she couldn’t keep it from him and said: “He is the current Duke Su, Ji Heng.”


“Duke Su?” Ye Ming Yu gasped. He had heard of Duke Su’s name, however, Duke Su, this person, was too far away for them, the common people in Xiangyang, just like a legend. To personally see the legend, there’s always a feeling that it’s unreal.


“Why is Duke Su here?” Ye Ming Yu asked.


Jiang Li shook her head and said: “I don’t know. I met him when I followed my father to the palace’s feast and spoke a few words. It can be considered as having a bit of fate. This time meeting in Xiangyang was by chance, truly unexpected, so we exchanged a few more words. However,” she paused before continuing: “I still have to ask uncle Ming Yu not to tell other people. Duke Su has an unusual ident.i.ty, it’s not known what business brought him to Xiangyang. It’s better not to speak of it to prevent any trouble.”


“I know.” Ye Ming Yu patted his chest. Although he didn’t understand the matters in the officialdom, he knew that the movements of these high officials and n.o.ble persons were not few. Must not be drawn into other people’s disputes, becoming the scapegoat without a good cause.


He took out a letter from his chest and said: “This is the reply letter found in the He residence.” Then he praised Jiang Li: “You are amazing, knowing that Tong Zhi Yang fears his tigress wife and asked him to put the reply letter in the He residence. Sure enough, Tong Zhi Yang did not dare to let others follow. This letter was taken very easily, just don’t know whether what Tong Zhi Yang wrote was true or false.”


Jiang Li spoke while tearing the letter open: “It’s true, Tong Zhi Yang will not take any chances with his son’s life.”


She unfolded the letter and looked through it carefully. After a short time, she handed the letter to Ye Ming Yu then signaled him to also read the letter.


Ye Ming Yu held the letter and read while Jiang Li sank into contemplation.


Tong Zhi Yang must have been very worried about Tong Yu’s life as there was lots of information transmitted in the letter. Tong Zhi Yang was not very clear who specifically planned the Ye family’s ancient fragrant satin trouble. However, his brother-in-law, the Zhong Guan Ling, wrote a letter and instructed him to make the Ye family suffer through the ancient fragrant satin. When the Ye family was in a tight spot, Tong Zhi Yang should give the Ye family a way to survive. For the Ye family to get out of it, they have to pay a price and Tong Zhi Yang would be the Ye family’s only hope at that time.


As such, it would seem that someone made use of the ancient fragrant satin matter to force the Ye family to desperation, make a deal, and turn them into a blade for the other party. But who the other party was, Tong Zhi Yang was unclear. Even though this matter used his brother-in-law to pa.s.s through, his brother-in-law was also just a messenger. Because his brother-in-law promised if this matter could succeed, Tong Zhi Yang’s official career would certainly go up a layer.


And that Zhong Guan Ling also faintly exposed the idea that there’s a person with enormous power behind this matter, involving a quite influential n.o.ble and that they were all working for this person.


It was originally a surefire thing, who would have thought a Jiang Li would suddenly appear. Moreover, when Jiang Li first arrived in Xiangyang and knew of the ancient fragrant satin matter, she immediately wrote a letter to Yanjing to ask the Weaving Unit to send people over, messing up Tong Zhi Yang’s plan. He had no choice but to write a letter to his brother-in-law. However, the people from the Weaving Unit came too fast, before he received the letter instructing him on his next steps, the affair had gone out of Tong Zhi Yang’s control. Not only was the Ye family not forced into a dead end, on the contrary, they pa.s.sed through the danger.


These were all the facts that Tong Zhi Yang knew and he did not know anymore. Jiang Li believed that Tong Zhi Yang did not say everything and still concealed a part. For example, the extermination of the entire family of Da Feng Medicine Shop. But anyway, this was not the most important thing. The most important was in the part that Tong Zhi Yang said, that powerful and influential n.o.ble, if she guessed correctly, that should undoubtedly be the Right Prime Minister, Li Zhong Nan.


From the beginning when Li Lian glanced at Ye Shijie, to Li Jing and Ji Heng’s conversation afterwards, to the present conspiracy on the Ye family, the entire thing was confusing, as if there’s no end.


“Ah Li,” Ye Ming Yu read through the letter and said: “I know all the words in the letter, but when joined together, I can’t understand what it means?”


“Uncle Ming Yu, simply said, there’s a n.o.ble in Yanjing that takes a fancy to the Ye family’s property and also Ye older cousin’s official position. So that person deliberately made a play to invite the Ye family into the boiling pot. But then,” she laughed, “the singing1 was too much and turned to paste.”
