Marriage of the Di Daughter

"Ah... Zhao?" Jiang Li said.

Ji Heng's eyes moved slightly, and before she could speak, she saw Jiang Li walking towards that person quickly, she walked very fast, at the end, she almost started to trot, and she was in front of that person before Zhao Ke. Zhao Ke didn't expect Jiang Li to catch up suddenly, looked at Jiang Li in surprise, and didn't speak.

The boy on the chair turned his head and was startled when he saw Jiang Li. Under the moonlight, his shadow changed from blurred to gradually clear. It was still the familiar eyebrows and eyes, but it was a little less immature and more determined. There are still some faint scars on his face, but his eyes are still as clear as before. He just looked at Jiang Li with doubts, and he even wanted to smile at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li's brain buzzed, and she touched the boy's face with her hands uncontrollably, as if to distinguish whether it was a dream or reality, she murmured: "Azhao..."

The young man asked suspiciously, "This girl...does she know me?"

His voice was still as cool as before, and it rang in Jiang Li's ears, causing Jiang Li to shake her body, and she came back to her senses, and looked at him in a daze.

It's not fake, A Zhao is talking, it's A Zhao's voice, not a dream, Zhao Ke and Ji Heng are also here, and this is not A Zhao's ghost.

In an instant, her heart was filled with great joy and sorrow at the same time, she hugged Ah Zhao all at once, and burst into tears.

The girl was sobbing, her crying echoed very clearly in the yard, Zhao Ke opened his mouth wide, and subconsciously looked towards Ji Heng. The second miss of the Jiang family actually hugged this boy named Azhao, could it be that they have known each other for a long time? Second Miss Jiang and Ah Zhao are so close, could it be that they had an affair in the past? A good person can't compare to a boy of unknown origin. The second young lady of the Jiang family just held hands with an adult before, but now she has already hugged someone in front of an adult. This is really...

Being hugged by Jiang Li like this, Ah Zhao was at a loss for a while, the boy's face flushed red, suddenly being hugged by a strange girl like this, Ah Zhao instinctively wanted to push him away, but the girl was crying heartbreakingly, so sad , inexplicably made his nose sore, he couldn't bear to push her away for a moment, and let her fall on his shoulder, weeping uncontrollably.

Because it was night, Jiang Li's crying soon alarmed others. Xiaohong in the cage kept thumping, looking at Jiang Li and calling "Fang Fei", but was drowned in Jiang Li's crying. Old General Ji seemed to have been woken up too, and yelled angrily in the courtyard next door, telling Ji Heng to calm down.

Ji Heng came over, grabbed Jiang Li's arm, and pulled her up from Ah Zhao. Zhao Ke paid attention to his master's face, and found that Ji Heng didn't mean to be angry, and was even more surprised for a while. Miss Jiang Er did such a thing, and adults are so tolerant, no wonder people always say "a beauty is a disaster".

Ji Heng said, "Go into the room and tell."

Jiang Li wiped her tears, and pushed Ah Zhao's wheelchair into the house, Ji Heng also followed in, leaving Zhao Ke guarding outside the house.

A Zhao usually lives in the hut next to Situ Lian Pharmacy, the hut is quite simple, Ji Heng sat by the bed, La Jiang Li sat down, A Zhao lit the oil lamp, looked at Jiang Li, still a little uncomfortable , was about to speak, when I heard Jiang Li speak, Jiang Li asked: "What's wrong with your leg?"

Ah Zhao opened his mouth, such an inexplicable woman asked himself inexplicably and so familiarly, as if he should tell her everything about himself. But Azhao made a mistake, so he answered honestly: "Doctor Situ said that my legs are broken, and I will not be able to stand up in the future. I always wonder if I can try again, so I stand by myself on the window sill for a while at night." I can't hold on for long. I was afraid that Dr. Situ would be angry if he saw it, so I did it at night, but I didn't expect to be seen by adults and girls."

"Broken?" Jiang Li asked softly. After saying this, her tears flowed down again. She really couldn't imagine what would happen if, as a quack boy like Ah Zhao, he couldn't stand up again from now on. You must know that when he was young, his ambition was not to be an official, nor to make a fortune, but to travel around, punish evil and promote good. It is very similar to Ye Mingyu, the difference is that Ye Mingyu did it, but Ah Zhao will never be able to do it again in the future.

Her tears fell down big and big, as if she was extremely sad. Ji Heng watched from the side, sighed softly, took out a handkerchief, and wiped her tears. I used to think that no matter what kind of situation the little girl encountered, she was always calm, even if she met the worst people, she could still laugh. Now it seems that the only few times she cried were related to relatives. As long as she met her relatives, her tears could not be stopped, and the hearts of those who cried softened a little.

Ah Zhao also looked at Jiang Li in a daze. The girl cried like this when she heard that his leg was broken. He could also see that the girl was really sad for him. But because of this, Ah Zhao became even more puzzled. It is true that he had never seen this strange girl before, but why did she feel so sorry for herself? He had no choice but to comfort me in a hurry: "Girl, you don't have to feel sorry for me. Although I can't stand up, I'm still alive. I have a life left. I can do whatever I want in the future. There are countless people in the world who are more pitiful than me, and some of them are not even alive. To be alive, in comparison, I am already very good."

Hearing this, Jiang Li was stunned, she said: "Alive? By the way... why are you here... aren't you dead?"

A Zhao was taken aback, and looked at Ji Heng.

Ji Heng said softly: "You still remember that day you told me to go to Princess Yongning's private prison to find Jiang Youyao."

Jiang Li nodded.

"When I was in the private prison, I saw him, and he asked me for help, so I brought him back." Ji Heng replied.

Hearing this, the young man's face suddenly flashed a flash of astonishment, and said: "You are... Miss Jiang?"

Ah Zhao still remembered what Zhao Ke had said, that day Miss Jiang Er asked Ji Heng to find someone in the private cell, but accidentally bumped into him. After all, Ji Heng was his savior, and Jiang Li also saved his life. If Miss Jiang Er hadn't asked Ji Heng to go to the private prison of the princess mansion, he would not have been discovered.

He said: "It turns out that the girl is the second miss of the Jiang family."

Jiang Li looked at him, his eyes were full of gratitude to himself. For Xue Zhao, Jiang Li is just an accidental savior.

"I'm not Miss Jiang Er," she said, "I'm my elder sister, Ah Zhao."

Xue Zhao was stunned.

He didn't understand Jiang Li's words. Jiang Li looked obviously younger than himself, why did he say that he was a sister, and let him call her sister when he first met, which was too familiar.

Seeing his still puzzled look, Jiang Li knew that Xue Zhao didn't understand her words at all, so she said it again: "Azhao, I'm Xue Fangfei, your sister."

Her voice couldn't help trembling, Ji Heng reached out to hold his hand, and Jiang Li felt a little relieved. But Ah Zhao stared at Jiang Li as if struck by lightning, and said for a while, "You...what are you talking about..."

The girl in front of him was a stranger, Xue Zhao had never met this lady before, and his sister, as long as Xue Zhao thought about it, his heart ached. When he was in the private prison, Xue Zhao already knew about Xue Fangfei's death. He felt sorry for his sister, who was raped and murdered by the adulterers, and she had to bear unwarranted charges.

"You don't believe me, do you?" Jiang Li asked softly.

"I don't know you...my sister is dead." Xue Zhao looked at her and replied blankly.

"You have a round birthmark on your body." Jiang Li said.

Xue Zhao was stunned, he did have a birthmark, the birthmark was on the inner thigh of his, since he was a child, no one should know about it except his family. But that's okay, after he was sent to the Duke's mansion, people might see him while he was being treated.

"When you were five years old, you went to the woods with me and fell into a swamp. I rescued you. At that time, both of us thought we would die, but we managed to survive. My father didn't let us go into the woods. Play, so after we went back, none of us mentioned this matter to our father, this is a secret between you and me, no third person will know."

Xue Zhao slowly opened his eyes wide. He knew that what Jiang Li said was true, and there was indeed no third person who knew about that matter. But because of the matter of life and death, he remembered it very clearly in his mind, and he still can't forget it.

"You like to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, drink green bamboo wine, and go to Uncle Zhang's tavern in Tongxiang the most. You always carry a bunch of copper coins and a piece of silver when you go out on weekdays. The silver is the lottery you won from the gambling house, I never wanted to use it, and said that I had saved enough fifty taels of silver, so I went to buy a sword. You like the boots I made for you, but you don’t like the pens and inks that Dad bought, and you have kissed me since you were young..."

She spoke eloquently for a long period, without even stopping in the middle, those things seemed to be deeply engraved in her heart and never forgot. As she talked more, the eyes of several people in the room seemed to be able to see Xue Zhao's appearance from childhood to adulthood, from a child to a vigorous young man.

Ah Zhao's eye sockets were already red unconsciously, and his body also trembled, staring at Jiang Li, as if strongly restraining his excitement.

Until Jiang Li saw him shed a tear, she stopped talking and asked, "Do you believe it now? Ah Zhao?"

Ah Zhao looked at her with tears and smiles, and after a while, he suddenly said, "...Sister!"

letter! Why don't you believe it? The things she said had really happened to him. Including his habits, if others want to check him, they can't find out what is in his heart. The heart-to-heart conversations between his siblings in those years, but now Jiang Li can say it verbatim. He knew his sister, but he never forgot it!

And the way she spoke was really too similar to Xue Fangfei. If Jiang Li didn't say anything, Xue Zhao would only think it was a coincidence, but when Jiang Li explained her identity and looked at those clues, it became indisputable evidence. It was clearly a strange look, but Xue Zhao felt in a trance that his sister had come back to life, she gently tolerated his naughtiness, and told him how to be a man of indomitable spirit.

"Sister!" Xue Zhao shouted.

"Azhao..." Jiang Li cried.

"Sister! You are really a sister!" Xue Zhaodao: "People outside said you were dead, and I thought you were dead too. Why are you still alive, and why did you become like this?" He suddenly said: " Have you changed your appearance, but how did you become the second young lady of the Jiang family? How are you these days? Did Shen Yurong and Princess Yongning kill you? And daddy, did you go to see him? Does he know us? about?"

He had so many questions, it can be seen that there are really many puzzles and he wants to ask himself clearly. With tears in her smile, Jiang Li said, "It's nothing, I'll tell you one by one."

"Azhao, I am no longer Xue Fangfei. I am Jiang Yuanbai's daughter, Jiang Li. At that time, Shen Yurong and Princess Yongning plotted against me, causing me to lose my reputation, so I had to stay in the mansion. Princess Yongning wanted to drug me, which made me angry When the lights were exhausted, I found out that the clues were not working, so I strangled me to death."

It was the second time hearing this kind of thing, Ji Heng still couldn't help staring slightly, and slightly closed the hand holding Jiang Li. Xue Zhao was even more furious, gritted his teeth and said, "You bastard!"

"I don't know what happened. At that time, I thought I was dead. When I woke up, I had become the second miss of the Jiang family. At that time, the second miss Jiang lived in Qingcheng Mountain, so I tried to return to Beijing. The purpose is to return to Yanjing City and find a chance to take revenge."

Xue Zhao asked: "So, Princess Yongning and Shen Yurong are now being sued and executed, and you did it?"

"Yes. But I'm in the dark, and it's Dad who wrote the pleadings."

"Father?" Xue Zhao understood that Jiang Li was talking about Xue Huaiyuan, so he asked in surprise, "Father is also in Yanjing?"

Jiang Li sighed, Xue Zhao had been imprisoned by Princess Yongning for too long, he had no idea what was going on outside. Princess Yongning didn't tell him, so Xue Zhao didn't know how much Xue Huaiyuan had suffered in Tongxiang.

"After my death, Princess Yongning made people go to Tongxiang to slander my father and put him in prison. My father was tortured in prison and lost his mind. After I became Jiangli, because Jiangli's grandfather was in Xiangyang, I tried to find a way to go. After a trip to Xiangyang, I found out about my father’s situation, and in order to vindicate my father, I took the people of Tongxiang and my father to Yanjing City to file an imperial complaint. Afterwards, my father stayed in Yanjing City, and Miss Jiuyue also cured my father.”

Jiang Li told Xue Zhao how she took revenge with Princess Yongning and Shen Yurong step by step. After hearing this, Xue Zhao was surprised and angry, with mixed feelings. At the end, she said: "They are really vicious, sister You have suffered a lot in Jiang's house, right?"

Although Jiang Li said it lightly, Xue Zhao knew that it was not easy to gain a firm foothold in a strange place. Especially the big family has many rules. My sister has always been free-spirited. Now that she stepped into the high school, she naturally has to endure many rules. She is afraid that someone will plot to harm her halfway.

"I'm fine. The Jiang family is pretty good." Jiang Li didn't want Xue Zhao to know anything bad, so she just asked, "It's you. I only knew that you were killed by bandits that day, and you were buried in the Yanyu Tower. Until Before I died, Princess Yongning told me that it was Jing Zhaoyin who told her about your whereabouts, and she killed you."

Xue Zhao obviously knew this for the first time, he was taken aback, and immediately said: "That day I was indeed Xunjing Zhaoyin, and I never thought that he was with Princess Yongning, but I didn't die, I was killed I was knocked unconscious, and when I woke up, I was already in the private prison of the Princess Mansion. I later found out that it was Princess Yongning who did something good. I wished I could kill her to avenge you, but unfortunately I couldn’t do it. I think she might be doing it to anger You made my sister die with hatred and unwillingness, so you said that on purpose."

Jiang Li nodded, that corpse like Xue Zhao's seemed to be the active hand and foot of Duke Yongning.

She looked at Xue Zhao, and felt great sorrow in her heart, "If I had known that you were in the private prison of the Princess Mansion, I would have tried to rescue you. I wouldn't let you eat so much for nothing. Bitter, even..." She looked at Xue Zhao's legs, and couldn't even stand up.

But Xue Zhao smiled at her and said, "Sister, as I said before, I still have one life left. In my opinion, God has favored me very much. I thought I would die like this In the private prison of the Princess Mansion, like everyone else in the private prison, I never expected to be rescued by someone, let alone meet my sister now, and my father is also in Yanjing City. It still left a way out for our Xue family, and didn't kill them all. Everyone said that all hardships come with rewards, and after we have suffered, the days to come must be good days!"

He is used to being open-minded and unrestrained, and he can even say such things with a smile. The more he was like this, the sadder Jiang Li became.

"Sister, does dad know your identity?" Xue Zhao asked.

Jiang Li paused, then shook her head slightly: "I don't know how to tell him, but, in just a few days, I plan to be honest with Dad."

"Sister, Dad will definitely believe what you say. Although it is a bit difficult for you to become Miss Jiang's family now, at least our family is still in Yanjing. I also want to see Dad, can I go See dad?"

Seeing his appearance, Xue Huaiyuan would definitely feel sad, but compared to the news of Xue Zhao's death, Xue Huaiyuan knew that Xue Zhao was still alive, so he was more likely to be happy. Jiang Li looked at Ji Heng and asked, "Can you let Ah Zhao go to Ye Mansion?"

Ji Heng said: "Yes, I will let Wen Ji protect him."

Xue Zhao looked at Jiang Li, and then at Ji Heng. Just seeing Jiang Li, he knew that his sister was still alive, immersed in ecstasy and excitement, and ignored all the words just now. He said it to Heng's face and did not hide anything.

Xue Zhao asked, "Your Excellency already knew who your sister is?"

Jiang Li nodded: "He knows that he also helped a lot when he took revenge."

Just as Xue Zhao wanted to say something, his eyes fell on the hands held together by Jiang Li and Ji Heng. A trace of confusion flashed across his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He actually wanted to ask about the relationship between Jiang Li and Ji Heng. It seemed that the relationship between the two of them was very close. Xue Zhao has only met Ji Heng once after coming to the Duke's Mansion for so long, and the indifference that time was completely different from the gentleness this time.

Is it because of my sister?

What about my sister? How she thinks.

But with Ji Heng in front of him, it was impossible for Xue Zhao to ask. Jiang Li looked at Xue Zhao's legs and said, "Azhao...your legs..."

"It's nothing if I can't stand up," Xue Zhao said. "I always wanted to be able to stand up one day, and even practiced at night hiding from Doctor Situ, just because I thought that from now on, it would be only Dad and me. If I can't stand up , who will take care of my father, I can't let my father take care of me. But my sister is still alive, I suddenly feel that all this is not important. As long as our family is still alive, it will be fine. "

He sincerely showed a satisfied mood.

Jiang Li actually wanted to talk to Xue Zhaoduo for a while, she really had too much to say to this brother, but Ji Heng interrupted him, Ji Heng said: "It's getting late, you should go .”

Jiang Li looked at the sky. She stayed in the Duke's Mansion for a long time today. If she stays longer, when she returns to the mansion, it might be dawn. In summer, it gets white early. just bad.

Xue Zhao also understood, and said, "Sister, hurry up, you are the young lady of the Jiang family now, if the Jiang family knows that you go out at night, it will not be a trivial matter."

In fact, he was also confused. Although his sister was not the kind of well-behaved lady in the past, and occasionally messed around with him, she would not go to the house of a strange man to talk in the middle of the night. But even so, Xue Zhao still believed that Jiang Li and Ji Heng would not do anything out of line, not because he believed that Ji Heng was a gentleman, but because he believed that Xue Fangfei was not that kind of person.

"Okay." Knowing that what they said made sense, Jiang Li stood up and said, "Azhao, I will come to see you some other day. On the day you go to see your father, let someone tell me in advance, and I will go with you. You By my side, I can explain my identity to my father."

Xue Zhao smiled: "Don't worry, sister."

Jiang Li again told Xue Zhao what to pay attention to. When she told her, it was the same as Xue Fangfei in Xue Zhao's memory. Xue Zhao smiled and answered, Jiang Li and Ji Heng walked out of the room.

Zhao Ke squatted at the door for a long time, and when he saw Jiang and Li coming out, he hurriedly stepped aside. Jiang Li's eyes were slightly swollen, as if she had cried hard, but Ji Heng couldn't see any expression. Zhao Ke thought wildly in his mind, could it be that his own adults saw the close relationship between Second Miss Jiang and A Zhao, threatened Second Miss Jiang, or killed A Zhao. Adults are ruthless, this kind of thing can be done. It's just that it seems that Second Miss Jiang is soft and not hard. If it's so hard, I'm afraid Second Miss Jiang will be angry.

He followed Ji Heng and Jiang Li far away.

"Thank you, Ji Heng." Jiang Li's voice was muffled because of crying, and it was no longer clear as before, "You saved Ah Zhao."

"It's just a little effort." Ji Heng said: "Besides, I didn't know he was your younger brother at the time."

He really didn't expect that this person was Jiang Li's younger brother, even Xue Zhao stayed in the house for a long time, he didn't pay attention to Xue Zhao's name, if Zhao Ke hadn't called "A Zhao" tonight, such a I don't know when the misunderstanding will be resolved. But the two brothers and sisters of the Xue family seem to have a very good relationship, and he is also very grateful for his little effort at that time.

Although he is not used to watching dramas with happy endings, he always thinks it is too fake and ridiculous, but if it is Jiang Li, he feels that it is best for those tragedies to stay far away from her, and everything is happy.

"You and Dr. Situ are both benefactors of our Xue family." Jiang Li said softly: "You rescued them, and Miss Jiuyue cured them. Miss Jiuyue contributed to Ah Zhao's rapid recovery. .”

"I didn't ask her to treat a stranger so seriously, she did it herself." Ji Heng raised his eyebrows, "Your brother, it's not easy."

"Of course he is not simple." Jiang Li laughed when talking about Xue Zhao, "As you said, even in a private prison, he didn't give up, right? Ah Zhao is such a person. But now that I think about it, Still a little scared. If I hadn’t asked you to look for Jiang Youyao in the private prison that day, if you hadn’t seen Azhao, if you had seen Azhao and hadn’t rescued him...my brother, I don’t know that he is still alive , let him be tortured for life, as long as I think about it, I feel scared."

Even in the middle of the summer night, she would still feel cold. She hugged her shoulders and shivered, looking very pitiful. It seemed that he had thought of something terrible, and even his lips turned pale.

Ji Heng frowned and tapped her forehead.

Jiang Li covered her head and looked at him: "What are you doing?"

"There are no ifs." He said it as a matter of course, "There are no ifs, that's why I met him, rescued him, and he was alive. If there is a if, if I didn't meet you in the Qingcheng Mountain to make trouble in the first place, There's not so much going on."

Jiang Li froze for a moment, smiled, and said, "That's right."

After walking for a while, when he was about to reach the door, Jiang Li asked again: "But Jiheng, there is one thing I still don't understand. How could you save Ah Zhao at that time? Even if Ah Zhao asked for help with you, why did you do it so easily?" Just agree?"

Ji Heng had never been a kind-hearted guy, when others asked for help, he would just watch from the sidelines most of the time, but only this time, in the private prison, Azhao hugged his boots, and he agreed.

Ji Heng smiled.

Why? How can there be so many why in the world? People in the dark will always be attracted to the light unconsciously, just like he would like a woman like Jiangli strangely. Her extra tenderness and kindness were originally what he hated the most, but strangely, it was because of those qualities that he hated that he fell in love with her again.

The same is true for Xue Zhao. In the dark cage, he saw a dying boy. The boy was struggling to crawl on the ground, with long bloodstains on his legs. He was holding him as if he had caught a ray of skylight. The boy's eyes were clear. With hope, Ji Heng suddenly thought of himself.

He crawled in the dark, he sold his soul to evil spirits, he abandoned all soft emotions, no weakness. But when he saw this young man, he suddenly felt a tinge of pity.

So he pulled him out of the darkness with one hand.

There is no reason, he just doesn't want to see himself at the beginning and repeat the past process again.

But by mistake, Jiang Li's younger brother was saved.

Ji Heng stopped and looked down at Jiang Li.

Jiang Li looked up at him. The girl's eyes were exactly the same as her brother's, but there was a little more determination and magnanimity than the youth's recklessness and open-mindedness.

"I don't know," he said.

Why did you save him?

I have no idea.

"Maybe," he sighed with a smile, "this is the guidance of fate, and I can't refuse."
