Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 112 Part 3: Dongshan

Jiang Li pondered for a long time before saying, Uncle Ming Yu does not have to worry where to hide the people away. I have a way. Although Tongxiang was small, it wasnt a place that can be entirely seen with just a glance. Xue Zhao and she grew up in Tongxiang and had gone through every nook and corner. No one knew those abandoned secret chambers that Xue Zhao shared with her as interesting things. Now it turned into hidden treasures.

Even though Ye Ming Yu was baffled as to how Jiang Li was going to solve this problem, he would not ask things that should not be asked. He had a simple brain and was not willing to think of complicated problems. Thus he said, Okay then, dont mention this thing for the time being. Now, how are we going to bring those people over? You want them to be witnesses, that means bringing them out of Dongshan. If Feng Yu Tang knows that you have this plan or even guesses, he will immediately kill them to shut their mouths. By that time, we will have many things in our hands.

Uncle Ming Yu, the reason why you felt that its inconvenient was not because of the guards keeping watch outside, but rather because you are not familiar with Dongshan and afraid of getting lost in the numerous paths inside the mine. Jiang Li said, Hand this matter over to me.

Ye Ming Yu asked, What do you mean? Ah Li, what method do you have?

Ill go to Dongshan, Jiang Li said, enter the mine and bring those officers out.

When these words came out, Ye Ming Yu nearly jumped out. He said, Dont joke, Ah Li, how can you go in?

Yes, Tonger, who had been listening, also could not help opening her mouth at this moment. Miss, this is also your first time coming to Tongxiang, Master uncle could not walk because he does not know how dangerous the roads in the mine are. How can you take this risk?

Im not taking risks. Jiang Li said, I know how to walk inside the mine.

No, Ye Ming Yu said, its too dangerous. Moreover, how do you know how to walk inside the mine?

Uncle Ming Yu, Jiang Li looked into Ye Ming Yus eyes and spoke earnestly, I said, I know how to walk inside the mine.

Ye Ming Yu was stunned.

Jiang Lis eyes were clear like river water. But the resoluteness in them turned the water into rocks. She did not tell lies, she really knew the way inside the mine.

Ye Ming Yu suddenly did not know what to say. The appearance of this niece of his was sincere, gentle and good. However, there seemed to be countless riddles in her body which made people sometimes think that they would forever be unable to enter her heart.

Okay. After a long time, Ye Ming Yu finally spoke. But I cant let you go in alone. Ah Li, Ill go in together with you.

Jiang Li still wanted to say something but Ye Ming Yu waved his hand, Ah Li, I know you have your own ideas with your work, I will not ask why or what. But I am your relative, I cannot just look on as you take risks. If it was me today thats going to enter the mine, I believe you also will not watch with ease.

Ye Ming Yus attitude was insistent.

Tonger and Bai Xue looked at this for a while, then looked at that for a while, each of them not daring to say a word.

After a while, Jiang Li said, Okay.

Ye Ming Yu heard this and the solemnity just now cleared away. He said, Okay! Ah Li, say, when do you want to leave?

Jiang Li, Now.

Now?

Yes, right now. At this moment, Feng Yu Tang has not yet thought of those officers, but soon he will remember them. Just in case he planned to clear up any and all probable evidence, that would include those officers. So we should not waste any time and must bring those officers out in haste.

But miss, you just woke up.. Tonger reminded her.

It doesnt matter, uncle Ming Yu, lets work hard first. As long as they are brought out and hidden away, the days will temporarily be a bit more relaxed.

Ye Ming Yu replied refreshingly, Its fine, Ah Li, if you have anything, just need to tell uncle. Uncle absolutely has no objection, go then go!

Bai Xue and Tonger looked at each other helplessly. This pair of uncle and niece were both reckless, handling matters without any fear.

Then lets set off.

It didnt take the time of half a stick of incense from the decision to departure.

Although Ye Ming Yu handled matters boorishly regardless of consequences, his temper of promptly doing right after thinking about it would not waste time. In this way, his swift reaction fitted well with Jiang Lis way of thinking. The group took advantage of the early morning to avoid pedestrians and secretly set off to Dongshan.

Ye Ming Yu did not bring all his men and horses. He left a few people behind and one disguised as him to deceive the people Feng Yu Tang dispatched to monitor them.

There were altogether seven people in the group excluding Jiang Li. After Jiang Li and Ye Ming Yus discussion, the other six people would wait at the mouth of the mine as support while Ye Ming Yu and Jiang Li would enter the mine to look for those officers. Before reaching this stage, they must knock the guards down. To prepare against any eventualities, afraid that they had a special way of transmitting messages, its best for them to only spend one stick of incense from the moment they searched for the officers to bringing them out.

Actually, it wasnt hard to rescue people, the hard part would be to find those officers in the interconnected mines. After all, there were many mines and its unknown which path they took. The people of Tongxiang did not know the routes in Dongshan mine. Even if they knew, who dared to show them the way as they all knew that its Feng Yu Tangs domain.

So the heavy burden fell on Jiang Li.

Due to the danger this time round, they did not bring Tonger and Bai Xue along. Jiang Li was also dressed as a male with a short linen top, black pants and deerskin boots. Her long hair was tied up and bundled inside a hat, looking like a pretty young master. Part of the gentle beauty was concealed and instead, she had a somewhat sharp heroic spirit.

Ye Ming Yu asked Jiang Li, Ah Li, no need to worry so much. If they cant be found, we will go back. After several tries, we will be familiar with the road. You dont have to carry everything on your body. Ye Ming Yu felt that Jiang Li was too careful with the Xue familys case. Even though he did not know the reason, Ye Ming Yu did not wish for Ah Li to blame herself in the end.
