Part 1 - The Double / Marriage of the Di Daughter

☆ Chapter 078 Entering the Palace

"Girl Li, you have to go to the palace with us tomorrow." Old Madam Jiang said, "If you need anything, just tell your mother, and your mother will prepare it for you."

Jiang Li nodded in agreement.

"This is your first time in the palace after returning to Yanjing City. Don't break the rules. If you don't understand, just ask. If you don't know what to do, just follow the girl Youyao." Old Madam Jiang carefully instructed, "Clothes and jewellery are all prepared for you. Tomorrow you represent the face of the Jiang family. I believe you can do well."

Old Madam Jiang actually praised her for the first time. Jiang Li smiled and nodded, not showing any excitement.

She was like this, and Jiang Yu'e, who was left aside, felt very uncomfortable. Jiang Yu'e saw that Jiang Li's status improved little by little after returning home. She always hated others for having more and laughed at others for having less. Jiang Li's good life was very dazzling in Jiang Yu'e's eyes. She wished that Jiang Li would fall into hell overnight and live a more miserable life than herself. 

"Li girl is really amazing. This time, His Majesty will personally present the gift. Among the young people in our mansion, Li girl is the only one who has done it." Mrs. Lu said with a smile: "I heard that the champion of the Imperial College this year is Ye Shijie. Ye Shijie is from the Ye family in Xiangyang. To be honest, he is also related to our Jiang family. He is also Jiang Li's cousin."

Ye Zhenzhen has been dead for many years, and the Jiang family has no contact with Ye Zhenzhen's family. At this time, Mrs. Lu mentioned Ye Shijie, naturally to stop Ji Shuran's heart. You know, Ji Shuran's nephew from her family didn't even make the list of the Imperial College, let alone the champion.

When Jiang Li heard Mrs. Lu mention Ye Shijie, she sighed slightly in her heart. She didn't want to involve the Ye family in the Jiang family's mess. The Ye family is in Xiangyang. In the future, she will have to rely on the Ye family when she returns to Xiangyang to worship Xue Huaiyuan. Involving the Ye family and the Jiang family together may not be a good thing for the Ye family.

She hopes that the Ye family will be clean.

Ji Shuran smiled and looked at Jiang Li: "Yes, I also think that Li'er should get along more with the young master of the Ye family. Although Sister Zhenzhen has gone, the two families are in-laws after all. If the young master of the Ye family enters the official career, our master can also help him in the future. We are all family members, and it is better to help our own family than to help outsiders."

Jiang Li heard this and her eyes moved slightly.

Ji Shuran's words were very sincere. But would Ji Shuran really be so kind that she would even let Jiang Yuanbai help Ye Shijie? This is absolutely impossible. Ji Shuran would only let people suppress Ye Shijie secretly. It's not that Jiang Li deliberately thought of people's hearts in a dark way, but after staying in the Jiang Mansion for so many days, she knew what kind of person Ji Shuran was.

This time, Zhou Yanbang even proposed to cancel the engagement with Jiang Youyao and be with her. For all these things, it would be strange if Ji Shuran and her daughter didn't hate her.

However, up to now, Ji Shuran and her daughter have been very quiet and have not made any trouble.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li looked at Ji Shuran.

Ji Shuran smiled virtuously, as if she was really a loving mother, but Jiang Li felt that her gaze was more like a poisonous python hovering on a branch, squinting her eyes, slowly looking at her prey, giving a sinister smile, and her fangs were still quenched with poison.

What is she planning?

Jiang Li's gaze fell on Jiang Youyao again.

Jiang Youyao was younger after all, and was not as perfect as Ji Shuran in expression. She also tried her best to show a smile that was indifferent to others, but she could not hide her hatred for Jiang Li in her eyes, and there was a trace of excitement for some unknown reason.
