Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 106 Part 3: In Prison
Qiong Zhi said: No need to worry, the people I asked are all trustworthy. In addition, they are not people who actively look for their own troubles. She did not anticipate Jiang Li to still remind her at this time and the way she looked at Jiang Li softened a bit. She couldnt help asking: Miss Jiang second, since youve made up your mind to manage the things in Tongxiang.. What do you plan to do next?
Theres no way to truly find out the facts in Xiangyang. Jiang Li said coldly: I want to take a trip to Tongxiang.
Qiong Zhi opened her mouth.
No matter how powerful the person behind is, Jiang Li lowered her eyes, even if I have to stake my life, I will pull them down together.
Her cold words made Qiong Zhi feel that the girl who was initially warm as spring seemed to have turned into a malicious spirit crawling out from the nether world, carrying a body of blood debt, and fiercely taking revenge on people.
Qiong Zhi was taken aback by her momentary anger and did not dare to speak.
When she came out from Xi Hua Lou, both Tonger and Bai Xue were able to see that something was wrong with Jiang Li.
She used to like to laugh, even when meeting a stranger, she would carry a three point smile. It was a spring breeze, making people feel especially comfortable. Today was the same, however, after staying at Xi Hua Lou for a brief moment, when she came out, she was like a different person.
There wasnt any smile on her face, seemingly worried by a grave matter in her mind. Her lips were tightly closed, her brows deeply locked, and her sight was somewhat flickering.
Tonger was scared and thought that she was being bullied inside. She immediately said: Miss.. Miss, whats the matter with you?
This call seemed to call Jiang Lis spirit back. Jiang Li looked at her and stared blankly for a while before speaking: Nothing, lets go back home. She took the veiled hat from Bai Xue, put it on, and walked forward by herself.
Bai Xue and Tonger were anxious, but they were now outside and its not very good to ask too much. Thus they could only follow after Jiang Li and hurriedly return to the Ye residence. Though they did not know what Jiang Li encountered in Xi Hua Lou, its obvious that Jiang Li had suffered a huge blow, and was out of her mind.
In a residence nearby the Ye residence, Lu Ji was sitting on a long rattan chair inside a room. On the opposite couch, Ji Heng was holding a book, flipping absent-mindedly.
Wen Ji came from outside and spoke: Master.
Ji Heng: Speak.
Jiang second miss just went to Xi Hua Lou again. said Wen Ji.
Lu Ji looked at Wen Ji, but Ji Heng did not take his eyes off from the page of the book at all. Without thinking, he asked: She once again went to see Miss Qiong Zhi?
Right. Wen Ji hesitated for a while before saying: Theres a very strange matter. The subordinate noticed that after Miss Jiang second met with Qiong Zhi and came out from Xi Hua Lou, something might have happened, she was somewhat in a daze.
Ji Hengs reading movement paused, and theres a flash of surprise on Lu Jis face.
In a daze? Ji Heng asked.
Correct. After she came out of Xi Hua Lou, Miss Jiang second immediately brought the two servant girls to return to the Ye residence. She took many wrong paths along the way, clearly her mind was not here. Afterwards, the two servant girls looked very anxious, perhaps its because Miss Jiang seconds expression was unusual. Wen Ji replied carefully.
Lu Ji couldnt help inquiring: What did she and Qiong Zhi actually talk about, is there no way to find out?
No way. Wen Ji said helplessly, Miss Qiong Zhi is very defensive and very intelligent. The people dispatched to pry for information could not open her mouth at all. Master did not let us use strong means, until now we dont know what Miss Jiang second and Miss Qing Zhi talk about.
Wen Ji was at his wits end. If he was to say that Miss Jiang second looked innocent and unaffected, often, her ways of handling things were thorough. Whoever discussed things with her was not good. As it happened, it was Xi Hua Lous most difficult person to deal with, Qiong Zhi. Qiong Zhi had mixed in the romantic place since young, not seeking for someone to redeem her, with almost no weak points. Theres a sentence saying, one can be strong if he has no desire. Qiong Zhi had no desire, therefore, nothing could move her. Under Ji Hengs premise of not using any tough method on Qiong Zhi, they totally could not find any way to pry open Qiong Zhis mouth.
Miss Jiang second clearly looked for such a hard rock on purpose.
No need to know what they talk about, Ji Heng said: just watch what shes doing.
Master, do you know what Miss Jiang second is going to do? Lu Ji asked.
Lu Ji could also be considered as one of the top intellect, very proficient in court arrangement and experienced in the ways of the world. However, towards this Jiang second miss, sometimes Lu Ji felt incomprehensible. To him, the way Jiang Li handled things did not seem to follow the set of rules. For example, the sudden goodwill she showed the Ye family and her assistance of the Ye family, both seemed to be spontaneous behavior. Looking at it, it did not seem to be a conspiracy, but after a long period of time, the reason for every single thing she did would appear.
Yet at the beginning, nobody could make out what she was actually going to do.
Lu Ji could perceive that Jiang Li meeting Qiong Zhi must be to do something that she deemed very important. Moreover, this thing that could make the usually calm Jiang Li be in a daze, certainly would not be a trivial matter. The problem was, in the end, they still did not know what Jiang Li was going to do. Even if they knew, theres a possibility that they were not able to find out Jiang Lis purpose. Shes really strange, all the things in the past seemed simple and straightforward. Just a little bit of investigation, they were all open to scrutiny. But even though all her past deeds were investigated, theres still the feeling that up and down her body was full of riddles.
Lu Ji couldnt help glancing at Ji Heng. With regards to mystery that could not be untied, this point, Jiang Li and Duke Su, Ji Heng were actually rather alike.
Dont know. Ji Heng said, but soon will know.
I think the real purpose of Jiang Li coming to Xiangyang is about to come out. In fact, I am also very curious, Ji Heng smiled and said, what does she actually want to do.
