Jiang Li felt relieved after roughly guessing Ji Shuran's next plan.
The worst thing is to be in a passive situation, not knowing what you are going to face, and thus being unprepared. But when you know, even if you know you are facing a dilemma, you can always find a way out by following the clues, so you are not helpless.
Jiang Li knew that after the Xue family case, Princess Yongning had already set her sights on herself. Not to mention how excited Shen Yurong would be, the domineering Princess Yongning would definitely find reasons to trouble herself next.
Before that, if Ji Shi's mother and daughter were quiet, Jiang Li would not have the time to spend too much time on it. But Ji had been stubborn and refused to change. Jiang Li felt that it was not a good idea to keep Ji in the Jiang family.
She had to clear out the outsiders.
Zhao Ke had already left. Jiang Li sat on the couch, and a question came to her mind. Why did Ji Shi pursue her so relentlessly? Even if Ye Zhenzhen left a child behind, she should have married off when she was old enough, so there was no need to kill her.
Even if she wanted to snatch Zhou Yanbang's marriage, she didn't have to kill Jiang Li. Everyone knew that Jiang Li killed her stepbrother, and it was undeniable that she was in the public eye, but before that, it was heard that Jiang Li and Ji Shuran got along well.
There was no hatred without reason, although it was later rumoured that Jiang Li was quite scheming, pretending to be friendly with her stepmother, and only pushed Ji Shuran to miscarry when her stepmother was pregnant.
But Jiang Li thought that real Jiang Li was too young at the time, and she had been in such an environment since she was a child. No one taught her means and scheming. How could she reach this point, even Ji Shuran could be calculated.
Jiang Li felt that this matter was a bit strange, but because the time interval was too long, many things were difficult to investigate. Now that Ji Shuran was pressing forward step by step, Jiang Li was determined to investigate this matter thoroughly. If there was any hidden secret in it, it could probably be used as a tool to deal with Ji Shuran.
No matter what, she will go to Zhao Ke to ask about it tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Jiang Li went to bed.
In Yaoguang Building, Jiang Youyao was also sleepless tonight.
Today, her maid Jinhua was in the corridor of Jiang Mansion, following Jiang Li's maid Tong'er, and Tong'er dropped a post without noticing it. Jinhua picked up the post, opened it, and found that it was a letter from Ningyuan Marquis Mansion to Jiang Li. She didn't dare to delay and gave the post to Jiang Youyao.
Jiang Youyao couldn't sleep and stroked the post repeatedly. The post was not from Zhou Yanbang, but from Jiang Yu'e. Thinking of Jiang Yu'e, Jiang Youyao gnashed her teeth in hatred. Zhou Yanbang was supposed to be Jiang Yu'e's brother-in-law, but now he has become Jiang Yu'e's husband.
Her lover now sleeps peacefully with Jiang Yu'e in his arms every night. Although Jiang Yu'e is just a concubine and Shen Ruyun is Zhou Yanbang's legal wife, Jiang Youyao wanted to tear Jiang Yu'e apart when she thought that the fourth daughter, whom she had never taken seriously and despised, had actually snatched her husband.
But now, Jiang Yu'e has been taken into the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion. It won't be long before Shen Ruyun and Zhou Yanbang's marriage is coming soon, and Jiang Youyao has no way out. She wants to find Zhou Yanbang, but she doesn't know how to make it clear to Zhou Yanbang.
She doesn't believe that Zhou Yanbang has no feelings for her at all. If it weren't for people's calculations, they should have been a good couple.
"Jiang Li..." Jiang Youyao looked at the post in front of her. Jiang Yu'e and Jiang Li had never gotten along, and they had always stood by her side in the past. Why did she invite Jiang Li to a small gathering after marrying into the Zhou family?
