Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 104 Part 3:

This is asking Tong Zhi Yang to betray his brother-in-law!

Tong Zhi Yang was unwilling, but looking at Tong Yus longevity lock, he was not reconciled. If Tong Yu did not exist, no matter how powerful of an official position he held, or how ample his family properties were, he still would not have any successors. Could he just look on helplessly as his sole successor be cut off?

Thinking back and forth, Tong Zhi Yang clenched his teeth and finally made up his mind. People are selfish, moreover, he had done his brother-in-laws affair very meticulously. If they wanted to blame, just blame the Jiang familys second miss who suddenly appeared and reversed the matter.He however, must not disregard his own flesh and blood for other people.

Bring a pen and paper here! Tong Zhi Yang said.

The servant boy ran hastily to take the things. Tong Zhi Yang looked at the letter on the ground and grinded his teeth once again.

After the other party asked him to write a good letter, they also told him to send the letter to the back of the He residence. Originally, Tong Zhi Yang wanted to assign someone to watch and track, to find out who did this. However, the letter was sent to the back of the He residence. The He residence was He-shis natal familys home. No matter how daring he was, he did not dare to move right in front of the He family. He was more afraid that the He family members would discover the existence of Su Qin mother and son because of him.

The other party could be regarded as having planned extensively, its watertight, making people grind their teeth in hate..

Jiang Li stood at the gate of the Ye residence.

She was waiting for the news of Ye Ming Yus return. Ye Ming Yu went to take the letter written by Tong Zhi Yang. Although Jiang Li had roughly guessed, she still needed Tong Zhi Yang to confirm some things.

The sunlight sprinkled lazily, the winter days were approaching. The winter in Xiangyang was comfortably warm, different from Yanjing thats located in the north. Its not very cold even when its snowing, the snow floated in the wind like pear blossoms.

The neighboring residences gate opened. Jiang Li turned her head and glanced to see Ji Heng and the bodyguard called Wen Ji walked out from inside.

The two of them also saw Jiang Li. Ji Heng smiled when he saw her and walked unhurriedly to this end.

There were not many pedestrians in the Ye residences gate. The people living around here were all high officials and the nobles. However, Ji Hengs appearance was too magnificent, suddenly attracting many peoples attention. Jiang Li even saw a young girl leaning on the gate of a distant house, frequently looking at Ji Heng.

They did not know Ji Hengs identity, yet Ji Heng could still become the most attractive.

Duke Su. Jiang Li saluted Ji Heng.

Its rare to see Miss Jiang second out to bask in the sun. Ji Heng held his fan while smiling and spoke to her.

In the wintry twelfth, the folding fan had long lost its use. If it were other people, perhaps they would be said as a pretentious snob. But when he held it, it felt completely suitable. It was as if the golden thread fan should exist in the palm of this beautiful man. Of course, Jiang Li was very clear in her heart, the time when she saw the peony on the golden thread fan blocking the knife, she immediately knew that this was barely just a fan. Its also the most dangerous weapon and being concealed with such a careless manner.

Just like its owner.

Jiang Li smiled: The duke is also in a good mood.

From a bystanders view, they would think that these two people seemed to be very familiar with each other, like old friends who had not met for a long time. However, Jiang Li would not think that Ji Heng treated her as a friend. His gentle smile hid the most unfeeling heart. As for what he wanted to do, Jiang Li was not clear, she also did not wish to know.

What is Miss Jiang second waiting for? Ji Heng asked. Wait for the information from Tong Zhi Yang?

Jiang Li lifted her eyes to look at him. As expected, her movement, even though it was small, could not be concealed from Ji Heng.

She agreed calmly: Nothing can be hidden from your sight.

The city of Xiangyang is small after all. Ji Heng said modestly, no secrets can be hidden.

Thats a fact.

Wen Ji, who was standing at the side, saw the two people, one big one small, conversing as if theres no one around and it was hard to hide his surprise. Ji Heng appeared gentle and affectionate when actually, he was not a person easy to get along with, treating a stranger especially callously and arrogantly. Its very seldom that he could say so many words to someone. Jiang second miss had not yet left Mount Qingcheng more than half a year, but in this half a year, aside from making huge waves in Yanjing, she had also established many contacts with Ji Heng.

Wen Ji could not tell what was in his masters thoughts. If said that Jiang Li would sooner or later be a sacrifice chess piece, Ji Heng never moved her from the beginning. If said that Ji Heng planned to help Jiang Li, Ji Heng never lifted his hand to help when Jiang Li faced schemes and dangers.

He merely watched the play delightfully at the side, not planning to help nor intending to hit the person.

And Jiang second miss was also a wonderful person. She did not have any trace of fear when facing the moody Duke Su. Let alone saying that shes a young girl, even if she was older, its not possible to be this calm and composed when chatting with Ji Heng.

Second miss seems to have guessed who it is. Ji Heng spoke and glanced at her with a smile on his face.

Im guessing its the Li family. Jiang Li directly replied.

Probably he did not anticipate Jiang Li to just spit it out and did not even cover it. Ji Heng was slightly surprised and did not speak for a moment. He then heard Jiang Li say: The duke has long known about it, correct?

She flung the question back at him.

She wasnt afraid of him at all.

Ji Heng said: Why are you asking me?

Because Xiangyang is too small, whatever secrets cannot be concealed from the dukes eyes. Jiang Li answered righteously. She laughed until her eyes curved, looking adorable and innocent, yet her words were sharp like daggers.

Ji Heng also laughed and asked: You want to know?

Jiang Li just looked at him laughing. Ji Heng shook his fan and said: Must not say.

He said it must not be said when in fact, he said it already. Jiang Li nodded, actually, up till now, she still could not figure out which side Ji Heng was actually standing at. Not mentioning his relationship with Cheng Wang and Emperor Hong Xiao, just he and the Right Prime Ministers familys relationship was confusing. He seemed to be acquainted with the Right Prime Ministers eldest son, Li Jing, but in the matter pertaining to the Li family, he did not lend a hand upon seeing that the Li familys plan had failed. If he was an ally, he was truly an annoying ally.

As he spoke, from far away a jujube red horse rushed over. The person on the horse did not pull the reins, merely whistled and the horse abruptly stopped in front of the gate.

Its Ye Ming Yu who had returned.
