Jiang Li walked out of the wine shop.

Ye Ming Yu squatted at the side of the road for a long time. Seeing Jiang Li walking over, he spat the grass he was chewing and asked, "How? Done talking?" He did not ask who Jiang Li was meeting and what she did. If it was Ye Jia Er, he definitely had to ask. But with Jiang Li, there were times that he felt that as a young generation, Jiang Li displayed more ideas than her peers and there's no need to worry. The more important thing was, Ye Ming Yu believed even if he asked Jiang Li, Jiang Li would not say.

Please, read this at BloomingTranslation blog. We spend a lot of time and effort to bring you the best quality translations we can provide, so please show us respect by reading from our site instead of aggregators that steal our work.

Why waste the effort? Then no need to ask.

Jiang Li nodded, "Done talking. Uncle, let's go back."

Jiang Li didn't take both the matter of meeting Ji Heng and their conversation too seriously. Although the rumor said that Ji Heng was a moody person, Jiang Li thought that it was just his outlook. His behavior had his own purpose. After their several confrontations, in addition to her seriously mulling over afterwards, the possibility of Ji Heng breaking up her plan was indeed very small. Even if she had truly delayed Ji Heng's matter, for Ji Heng, it was just an insignificant matter. It's not worth it for him to personally dispose of her. Therefore, coming to Tongxiang from Xiangyang was because her action was too strange and he wanted to be an audience.

That's fine, watch a play then go watch a play. She never feared becoming an actress, but this play's beginning to end must be grasped by her only.

Ji Heng was not important, the more important matter was her father's sentencing seven days later. She could not find the evidence to reverse the verdict on her father, so she had to prepare for the worst and plan to rob the execution ground well. However, whether the robbing was successful, it could be considered a success if it would not implicate too widely in the future, which was something that had to be considered seriously. Therefore, the most comprehensive method was still finding evidence.

Ye Ming Yu heard Jiang Li said to go back and agreed cheerfully. They temporarily lived in a family's guesthouse located in Qingshi Lane, not far from the bestowed Xue family's house. Presumably, Feng Yu Tang's people would pay attention to where they were staying; choosing Qingshi Lane was indeed too eye-catching. But Jiang Li precisely wanted to strike a drum, she wanted to let Feng Yu Tang know that she had come to settle the account after autumn.

When they returned to the guesthouse, Ye Ming Yu sent people to the alley to get something to eat and conveniently asked about the security in this area. Jiang Li stayed inside the room, Ye Ming Yu held the Xue family's file and gave it to Jiang Li, not daring to disturb her. He only let Tong'er and Bai Xue wait in the door to serve. They could help if Jiang Li wanted to drink tea or eat something.

Jiang Li was looking at the files seriously.

If it's possible, she must find a doubtful point and a loophole in the Xue family's case. Grab this doubtful point and loophole tight, not let go, and investigate step by step. If it did not work, she could also deliberately magnify it, obscure the facts and fight for time for Xue Huai Yuan.

Feng Yu Tang should have made this file, perhaps based on Princess Yongning's instruction. This Xue family files made by Feng Yu Tang's unexpectedly hid everything flawlessly, and described Xue Huai Yuan as a greedy official who committed all kinds of evil deeds, too many crimes to count. Jiang Li read through and wanted to laugh sarcastically.

Not one of the things written inside had been done by Xue Huai Yuan. On the contrary, each deed was inseparable from the current county deputy of Tongxiang, Feng Yu Tang. Unfortunately, Xue Huai Yuan pleaded guilty. Jiang Li could imagine what they did in order to make Xue Huai Yuan admit the crimes. Perhaps this was the reason why Xue Huai Yuan was tortured until he lost his mind.
