Xia Cheng glanced at Li An, who was on the other side with a calm demeanor. His heart was broken, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I beg Your Highness to save Xia Manor's life. If His Highness can help you with this matter, Your Highness will be the savior of the entire Xia Mansion. If there is anything in the future Where the Xia Mansion is needed, I, Xia, swear here that I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate to do so."

For a long time, the Xia family and the eighth prince's house have always supported each other. Although the eighth prince is extremely capable, they all do it secretly. The Xia family is now firmly established, and Ye Li needs money and power. But because of this, the Xia family is not easy to control. Ye Li and the Xia family use each other. Xia Cheng's stance at this moment is to show his position and completely surrender.

Ye Li sighed softly: "I'm very pleased that Master Hou said so, but there is no guarantee that Master Hou will have a rift with me in the future and have other thoughts, so what should I do?"

Xia Cheng saw that Ye Li was a little loose, and said: "The old man will definitely prove the sincerity of the Xia family with practical actions. I just ask His Highness to find a way to save Xia's life."

Ye Liwen said: "Your Majesty is worrying too much. The Xia Mansion and I are in a relationship of both prosperity and loss. How could I stand idly by? Leave this matter to me. I will definitely give Hou Ye a satisfactory answer. Lord Hou, don't disappoint me."

Xia Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes."

Ye Li smiled with satisfaction: "So, if there's nothing else to do, go back first, Mr. Li and I still have something to talk about."

Xia Chengxin glanced at Li An reluctantly, and then said goodbye.

After Xia Cheng left, Li An cupped his hands at Ye Li and said, "Your Highness."

"You don't need to say, the Xia family has helped, and I will not sit idly by the Li family." Ye Liwen said: "Besides, you and I have a very close relationship, and I will not stand by."

Li An nodded, but sneered disdainfully in his heart, what kind of friendship is just a use of value. The use value of the Li family is greater than that of the Xia family, so Ye Li's posture is just lower. Everyone has a price, and it all depends on whether the price is reasonable or not. The price of the Xia family is that much, but the prime minister's mansion is more than that.

Ye Li took in all the disdain in Li An's eyes, his smile remained unchanged, but a hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes. There are certainly a lot of money and power in the prime minister's mansion, but others can also give it to him. If it is said that the most worth buying, it is undoubtedly the person in front of him. Li An is different from Li Yang. Li Yang is just an ignorant waste, but Li An has given him a lot of ideas over the years. He regards Li An as his right-hand man and needs his intelligence. Also tolerable.

"But why did the Li family want to kill Jiang Xinzhi?" Ye Li asked. Xia Cheng is because of the relationship between Xia Yan and Jiang Chao, which is understandable, but the Li family and the Jiang family are in dire straits now. He knew that Jiang Susu had hurt Li Yang's descendants. It stands to reason that Jiang Susu's mother and daughter benefited from Li An's intervention in killing Jiang Xinzhi.

Li An didn't hide anything, and said: "Jiang Ruan hurt my elder brother, and I have a vengeance with the prime minister's house. I planned to kill Jiang Xinzhi, and then slowly torture Jiang Ruan, but I didn't expect something to happen midway." To torture a person, the body is the worst form of torture, and only mental torture can make people feel endless pain. If Jiang Ruan knew that Jiang Xinzhi died because of her, she would definitely be in unbearable pain.

"Jiang Ruan?" Ye Li was taken aback: "How could it be Jiang Ruan?"

"Second Miss Jiang is just a scapegoat. It is true that Jiang Ruan hurt my elder brother and blamed it on Jiang Susu."

Ye Li never doubted Li An's words, but was surprised in his heart, but when he thought of Jiang Ruan's calm response to the matter in the Xiafu ancestral hall, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. How can a woman in a boudoir have such deep scheming? If she wants to frame Jiang Susu and join the Li family, would it be too risky? Isn't she afraid?

"However, I also discovered an interesting thing." Li An suddenly showed a smile: "The Zhao family got involved, which made me think that Jiang Ruan might have hooked up with the Zhao family. The situation on the side will also change. Excuse me, but by then, His Highness may also be in trouble."

"You mean Jiang Ruan and the Zhao family?" Ye Li frowned: "What's going on?"

"I don't know either, but the young lady of the Jiang family is not that simple." Li An said. But this is the best way, it's fun to play this way, she gave him a little surprise, and blocked his plan, but next time, I don't know if there will be such luck.

Ye Li frowned tightly, for some reason, a feeling of uneasiness arose in his heart.

...

Jiang Xinzhi left the mansion early in the morning to meet Guan Lianghan. What happened yesterday was very strange, and there are still many details to be discussed.

In Jing Zhao Yin's residence, Dong Ying'er twirled a piece of candied golden date and put it into her mouth, and said with a smile: "Sister Ruan, you are very powerful now, everyone in the capital knows that you have a young and handsome brother, who is tall and handsome Hey, he is different from those rude soldiers, he is really a white-faced Confucian general, and I heard that his demeanor on the battlefield is even more heroic."

"Look at what you said, people who don't know think it's your brother." Wen Feifei joked.

"That's right. Could it be that our Miss Dong has started to miss spring?" Zhao Jin smiled.

Dong Yinger blushed when she heard this, and made a gesture to hit her: "You bastard is talking nonsense, see if I don't tear your mouth apart!"

Zhao Jin hurriedly hid and smiled: "Forgive me, I was wrong, I was joking with you."

Lin Zixiang looked at Jiang Ruan with relief: "Well, although you are not very capable, but fortunately you have a powerful brother, your stepmother and younger sister will not dare to bully you casually in the future."

"That's right, that's right," Zhao Jin slapped her hands, "Hurry up and take back all the things they bullied you in the past. If you don't like it, tell your elder brother to break their legs."

"How can you be like this?" Dong Yinger pouted dissatisfiedly: "I don't think Brother Jiang will hit people casually. Do you think everyone is as rude as you?"

Zhao Jin stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.

Jiang Ruan smiled and said: "The left and right are going back to the house, and I will let you meet him when I have a chance in the future. But it is not early today, so I should go back."

Dong Yinger invited them to the house as guests. The young ladies chatted and drank tea. In a blink of an eye, most of the day passed. Seeing that the sky was getting dark and the road was slippery when it rained, Dong Yinger couldn't stay for a long time, so she said: "Okay, let's change Let’s meet again, Yu’er, go and bring a portion of the snacks I made.” She smiled and said, “Be careful on the road.”

After saying goodbye, everyone went back to their homes. When passing through the city, Jiang Ruan ordered the coachman to drive the carriage into a narrow alley. The carriage stopped at the door. Jiang Ruan asked Zisu and Luzhu to follow and walked to a house in the alley. in front of others.

Lianqiao went forward to knock on the door, and soon a boy came to open the door, seeing Jiang Ruan, she was taken aback for a moment, and greeted the three of them randomly and respectfully. As soon as he walked to the main hall, he heard Huijue's voice: "Miss Jiang."
