After Jiang Li left, in Wangxian Tower, Jin Mantang's party had not yet finished. Amid the humming of opera, Ji Heng sat down lazily and asked, "How is it?"
"Miss Jiang Er is very smart." Lu Ji smiled slightly: "She has been asked for so long, and her answer is flawless. She is a very perceptive girl."
"What did you ask?" Kong Liu looked at him suspiciously.
"After all, she is Jiang Yuanbo's daughter." Ji Heng answered indifferently.
On the other side, the guard who came to report also said: "It has been checked. Ye Shijie and Miss Jiang Er did not make an appointment in advance. They must have met by chance on the street. But Ye family's second young master Ye Mingxuan arrived in Yanjing yesterday."
"Ye Mingxuan is here?" Kong Liu frowned, "Their Ye family's business is not in Yanjing. Why did he come to Yanjing to do something? Congratulate his nephew and congratulate his nephew on his promotion? He came in person, he really doesn't mind the effort."
"There is a problem with the Ye family's business," Lu Ji said: "Ye Mingxuan came this time, probably to find some ways in Yanjing to see if he can help."
Ji Heng laughed: "People leave and tea is cold, it is impossible for anyone to help."
"Then why doesn't he ask Ye Shijie for help? Now that Ye Shijie is an official, there are many people who want to please Ye Shijie. It's easy to find a breakthrough here!" Kong Liu said as a matter of course.
Lu Ji shook his head: "The Ye family has been a merchant family for generations. Ye Shijie is the first person in the Ye family to enter the government. Now that they have finally made progress, the Ye family is not brave enough to use Ye Shijie's career as a bargaining chip to help with business matters."
Kong Liu glanced at Ji Heng who was playing with a fan and muttered: "They are all the same people, why are they so different." He thought of something else and said: "Then why doesn't he go to the Jiang family? The two were once in-laws. Although the grandmother of the Ye family is dead, there is still the connection of Miss Jiang Er. Ye Mingxuan went to the Jiang family. Jiang Yuanbai is so face-conscious that he naturally felt embarrassed not to help him."
Lu Ji sighed: "You should also listen to the latest news in the capital city on weekdays. Miss Jiang Er and the Jiang family have no contact with the Ye family ten years ago. How could Ye Mingxuan go to the Jiang family?"
The few people were silent for a while.
Ji Heng said: "Ye Mingxuan may also go to the Jiang family."
"Sir?" Lu Ji was puzzled.
"Because of Miss Jiang Er." Ji Heng said.
...After meeting Jiang Jingrui, Jiang Li and the others quickly found Mrs. Lu's group. Mrs. Lu's group was also very carefree. After walking for such a long time, they watched their son and niece disappear without panicking. When she asked, Mrs. Lu said, "Rui'er is always wandering around the streets, how can he get lost? Li'er is very relieved to follow Rui'er and the other two."
After hearing this, Jiang Li was expressionless. She really didn't know how Jiang Jingrui could be reassuring.
She thought of Ye Shijie before and couldn't help shaking her head. If Ji Heng's guards hadn't suddenly appeared and took her to see the useless party, she should have said a few words to Ye Shijie. Because of the relationship with Li Lian, the youngest son of the right prime minister, Jiang Li always felt that Ye Shijie's official career would not be too smooth. Even what Li Lian was planning was still unknown, but it seemed that she had smelled the signs of conspiracy.
