Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 127 Part 2: Re-trial

Cheng Wang stood at one end, looking coldly at Jiang Li’s group. He looked very gloomy and vicious, making one terrified. Even if Jiang Yuan Bai and Ye Ming Yu were present, he was not willing to restrain himself.

There were still many acquaintances, such as Liu Xu’s father, Master Liu, Liu Yuan Feng, Ji Shuran’s father, Ji Yan Lin; and Jiang Li also saw Shen Yurong.

Shen Yurong came a bit later, but once he entered, many court councilors came and greeted him warmly in succession, with the flavor of currying favor with him. There’s a good-natured smile on Shen Yurong’s face. He was handsome, gentle and refined. In this court, he was like a clean flowing water, attracting attention.

Ye Ming Yu also looked straight at him and said, “Who is that youngster? So young, but I think his position is not small, right? He’s still very handsome. Ah Li, if you and he…..” Ye Ming Yu glimpsed Ye Shijie’s expression at the side and swallowed the words “are together” he was about to say.

Even so, Jiang Li could guess what Ye Ming Yu was about to say and could not help sneering inside.

Shen Yurong indeed was able to deceive people with just that skin. At that time, when he was just a scholar, many wealthy ladies wanted to marry him. Now that he was an official, wearing luxurious clothes, his disposition became more and more outstanding and he actually made people cherish him even more than before. No wonder Princess Yongning did not hesitate to conspire to murder his primary wife and marry into the Shen family. But for Jiang Li, this kind of Shen Yurong, was even more unfamiliar, even more disgusting, and she looked down on him even more.

Shen Yurong sensed someone looking at him and following the gaze, he saw a delicate girl standing beside a man with a scar on his face not far away.

The girl was graceful, with a slender figure, at a good age of 15 or 16 years old. Like a pear flower just blooming on a tree, fresh and lovely. Although she could not be regarded as an outstanding beauty, there was a calmness and a heroic air between her brows, for a moment, it made people unable to remove their sights. He also had a feeling of déjà vu from her sight, and he wondered where he had seen it from.

Shen Yurong was distracted while looking at Jiang Li. fгeewebnovёl.com

Ye Shijie frowned. He knew Shen Yurong who was positioned in the secretariat and had met him occasionally in the court. Shen Yurong treated him warmly and his temper was extremely good. He was willing to make friends with people in the court. However, he did not know why, Ye Shijied did not like this young Master Shen very much, always feeling that he handled things too accommodatingly. Within a short period, he was able to secure a position in the secretariat without any enemies, how was this possible?

After Ye Shijie became an official, he became aware of the darkness in the officialdom. A person like Shen Yurong who was like a fish back in water was naturally not so clean. He was obviously not clean, yet showed the appearance of a noble and benevolent character, really fishing for compliments.

Ye Shijie moved sideways to obstruct Jiang Li and cupped his hands in greeting, “Master Shen.”

Shen Yurong snapped out of his daze and returned Ye Shijie’s greeting. However, his eyes were fixed on Jiang Li.

He had seen Jiang Li as early as when Princess Yongning sustained injury during Ming Yi Hall’s examination. Vaguely remembering Jiang Li’s good qin, comparable to Fang Fei. She was Jiang Yuan Bai’s legitimate daughter. He knew one or two about Jiang Li’s past. Because of plotting against her stepmother, she was sent to the monastery. In the brief few months after coming back, she was able to stand firmly in the chief assistant’s residence. It could be seen that she was not someone without a brain.

As for the relationship with Jiang Li, Shen Ruyun was about to marry Zhou Yan Bang, so indirectly, it was originally Jiang Li’s marriage. Now Jiang Li was involved in Xue Huaiyuan’s case, Shen Yurong had a strange feeling. The connection between him and Jiang Li was very distant, but it seemed that there was a rope that mysteriously pulled them to be in the same place. As a result, everything had Jiang Li’s shadow.

He looked at Jiang Li, Jiang Li also looked at him. A female looking directly at an unfamiliar man like this could be said as brazen. But Shen Yurong could clearly feel that the way Jiang Li looked at him had not a trace of admiration. There was only the look of indifference towards a stranger, as if not hiding anything. He searched her gaze but could not find anything else.

As Shen Yurong was hesitating whether to greet Jiang Li or not, Jiang Li had already removed her sights, as if he was just an insignificant person, unworthy of her spending a bit of expression. Shen Yurong was stunned for a while before mockingly smiled at himself.

Yes, Jiang Li was not Fang Fei, also not Princess Yongning. For her, he was just an insignificant stranger, so this was the right reaction. But he did not know why, Shen Yurong couldn’t help glancing at Jiang Li who was talking to Ye Shijie. He always felt….. there’s something that was not quite right.

But he was unable to say what it was.

At that moment, the person serving in the inner chamber, eunuch Su, had already brought the retinue from behind, Emperor Hong Xiao had arrived.

The court law in the current dynasty was not rigorous, even the court practices were not as strict as in the previous emperor’s dynasty. Some people said this was due to Emperor’s Hong Xiao’s weak power, so others did not fear him. It was also unknown how long the emperor could sit in this position, so all of them feeling secure.

Before, Jiang Li also thought although Emperor Hong Xiao was not as mediocre as how he looked on the surface, he could not be called a wise ruler in history. However, ever since she knew of Ji Hen’s plan, Jiang Li understood that her judgment of emperor Hong Xiao was probably gravely mistaken. Ji Heng, even though he controlled the government and played with powers, he was very proud. It was probably impossible for him to bow before a person. Within the three powers, he chose Emperor Hong Xiao, naturally it was because Emperor Hong Xiao deserved his assistance. If Ji Heng was in the highest position, in the future, Emperor Hong Xiao would be his opponent. If Emperor Hong Xiao was useless, it was an insult to choose him as his rival.

If Ji Heng was not after the position of the emperor, and instead had other plans, then for him, whether he became the knife used by Emperor Hong Xiao or an ally standing on the same boat, either one would not be a person of no particular talent.

This emperor had always disguised himself as harmless to let others’ guards down, which might not be simple.

Emperor Hong Xiao sat at the highest seat, the other officials lined up in their positions, and the silence in the throne room was just an instant.
