Chapter 158 The Scar Healed and the Pain Was Forgotten

The carriage was going farther and farther away.

Yan Li could no longer hear the chaos in the teahouse.

Ming Qi sat in front of the carriage and said, "The Ninth Prince of Mu State has a strong deterrent power. Telling his name can save a lot of trouble."

Yan Li was originally leaning against the carriage in deep thought. Hearing this, he raised his eyes and took a look.

Separated by a layer of curtains, naturally nothing can be seen.

But Yan Li still nodded: "Mu Cang's name is indeed useful."

Ming Qi was a little melancholy: "If your majesty recovers his status, the name will be a hundred times more useful than the Ninth Prince of Mu State."

His majesty was the radiant empress of the Southern Kingdom. Before ascending the throne, she was a princess who was both civil and military. She swept away bandits and pacified wars.

She was proficient in almost everything, including music, chess, calligraphy, and Qimen Dunjia.

Which of her companions who grew up with her did not admire her?

The nobles and ladies of the noble families all targeted her. They felt it was a great honor to have a chance to talk to the princess.

Unexpectedly...

Such a gorgeous empress was plotted by the people she trusted, and she capsized in the gutter and fell into the hands of an orphan girl from the Mu Kingdom, who was suppressed and targeted by some unsophisticated women from noble families.

Fortunately, the Emperor of the Mu Kingdom and the Ninth Prince protected him, and His Majesty was not harmed, otherwise the Southern Kingdom's cavalry would have trampled through the territory of the Mu Kingdom and destroyed those noble families without any education and virtue.

The carriage was not moving fast, and the two chatted as they walked. Mingqi spoke in a low voice, so only Yan Li in the carriage could hear it.

"Although what you said is true, the incident did happen, and we have to accept it all." Yan Li said in a leisurely tone, and he did not seem dissatisfied with his current helpless situation. "If I speak in my previous identity, I am afraid I will be burned to death as an evil spirit."

Even if I am not burned to death, it will trigger some speculations that confuse the public. Not only will rumors spread in the Mu Kingdom, but other countries will also look at it sideways.

Of course, the troubles that follow are doomed to be unavoidable.

So for the time being, she can only and must live as Yan Li, patiently waiting for the day when the opportunity comes.

Mingqi hummed: "I understand."

Today's conversation was interrupted in the middle, and it is obviously inappropriate to find another place to continue.

Mingqi said: "I will send His Majesty back first, and then find a place to stay, and we will talk about other things tomorrow."

"No need, just follow me to the Jiang family." Yan Li leaned against the carriage and said casually, "You don't have to worry about my marriage with Mu Cang, but the poison in his body is a bit special, you go to check his pulse."

Mingqi frowned: "Actually, I'm quite surprised. It seems that no one in the territory of Mu State raises poisonous things like poison. How could he be poisoned by poison?"

Yan Li nodded silently, she also felt strange.

A proud and strong man like Mu Cang should be invincible and remain noble and calm at all times.

Even if there is no private affair between his daughter, Yan Li privately does not want to see him suffer from poison.

Especially the heart-eating poison.

The carriage arrived outside the gate of the Jiang family.

Mingqi jumped off the carriage and lifted the curtain for Yan Li.

A servant came out of the Jiang family gate and drove the carriage down.

Recently, it has become common for Yan Li to go in and out of the Jiang family every day. No one interrogates or stops him. Even the masters of the Jiang family dare not go up to cause trouble after suffering a few big losses.

Yan Li's life is getting more and more comfortable.

After Tianshu and the other four came, she felt even more comfortable. She was so comfortable that when she had nothing to do, in addition to exercising as usual, she could also let Tianshu and the other four find out the news outside at any time.

In just a few days, she had a lot of intelligence in hand, most of which came from the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This is also the reason why she did not stop Mingqi from poisoning Gu Heyu today. After all, if Prime Minister Gu really dared to cause trouble for her, she had plenty of ways to deal with him.

Entering the gate of Jiang's house, the servants who were cleaning the front yard greeted him one after another. Some of them looked at Mingqi curiously and said, "Who is this young man..."

"He is the subordinate of the Ninth Prince." Yan Li said calmly, "The Ninth Prince is taking a rest in the Liuli Courtyard. He has something to report."

"Yes."

Walking through the middle courtyard, Jiang Yunming and Luo's couple came together. Seeing Yan Li, Luo walked faster: "Yan Li!"

Yan Li stopped: "What can I do for you, aunt?"

"Who is he?" Luo pointed at Mingqi, her eyes arrogant and a little scrutinizing, "Where did you get this wild man back from?"

Yan Li's eyes were cold and hard: "Aunt, have you forgotten the pain after the wound healed?"

Luo's momentum weakened, and she subconsciously retracted her hand, but she still refused to admit defeat: "You and The Ninth Prince's marriage is no longer possible. What do you plan to do with the dowry given by the Emperor? "

"Who said that my marriage with the Ninth Prince can't be successful?"

"This is the news that just came out of the palace. Don't say you don't know it yet." Luo smiled coldly, "As a princess who is about to marry into the Kingdom of Jin, you should put your family and country first. Your marriage with the Ninth Prince is naturally no longer valid."

"The Ninth Prince is resting in my yard now. Auntie, why don't you ask him whether it is valid or not?"

Luo's face changed: "You haven't married yet, how can you do this-"

"Whether I will go to marry or not is not yet determined, but it is a fact that Jiang Jingyue has become the Princess of Xian. Auntie should pay more attention to her daughter."

After saying this, Yan Li walked away, too lazy to pay attention to her.

Mingqi's eyes were slightly cold, and he followed Yan Li without saying a word.

"Stop!" Luo reached out to pull Mingqi, "Who are you? What does it have to do with Yan Li-ah!"

A parabola passed by quickly in front of him, and with a loud "bang", Luo's round body was thrown out and hit the ground.

Mingqi slowly took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands: "You don't deserve to know my identity."

After saying this, he followed Yan Li.

The servants who were busy around were shocked and almost stunned by this scene.

Jiang Yunming came back to his senses and roared: "What are you all standing there for? Why don't you come and help the lady up? Come on, call the doctor immediately!"

"Call all the guards and block the Liuli Courtyard!"

"I want to know who the man who dared to hurt people at will is! He is so bold to do it in the house of an official appointed by the court!"
