The Double / Marriage of the Di Daughter Part 2

☆ Chapter 169 Miscarriage

"I promise you."

Jiang Li blinked her eyes. He always agreed quickly. From being unfriendly at the beginning to helping almost every time now, Jiang Li didn't know what Ji Heng was thinking.

After thinking about it, she said, "Once this matter is over, will King Cheng start a rebellion immediately?"

"If Yongning and the Li family's reputation is ruined and their vitality is seriously damaged in this matter, it will speed up his actions."

Jiang Li asked again, "If it is advanced, will it affect your plan?"

Ji Heng looked at her, "Do you know my plan?"

Jiang Li shook her head frankly, "I don't know. But you are in this position, and King Cheng's every move should have an impact on you."

"Not much."

Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'm relieved."

"Little guy," Ji Heng raised his eyebrows, "You seem to be worried about me."

It was originally an ordinary sentence, but it was said in a low voice, as if it was a little teasing. 

Jiang Li felt her face getting hot, and she just said, "Of course, the Duke is still related to my life and worth, and I will have to rely on you a lot in the future."

Ji Heng chuckled, "Do you know how the emperor will send troops after King Cheng started the rebellion?"

"There are General Wuwei and General Pingrong in the current court." Jiang Li said, "Aren't they these two?"

"They are from the military and are a little younger. Compared with King Cheng's power, they may not have much advantage." Ji Heng said indifferently.

Jiang Li said, "But when the late emperor was alive, he valued civil officials over military officials, so there were not many military generals in the court. These two are already the best...ah, I remember, there are also General Zhaode and Prince Xia!"

Prince Xia is the late emperor's half-brother. Although they are not born from the same mother, the late emperor and Prince Xia were brothers. But later, for some reason, the late emperor sent Prince Xia to the cold northwest to guard the border, and he could not return to Capital all year round. Now the son of Prince Xia is probably about the same age as Emperor Hong Xiao.

This Prince Xia is also a very famous General Zhaode, and his soldiers are brave in battle. Others speculate that perhaps it was because of this that the late emperor sent General Zhaode to the northwest instead of demoting him. His soldiers are brave in battle, but also wild and difficult to tame. Only General Zhaode can control them.

"You still know Prince Xia?" Ji Heng was a little surprised and said, "You know a lot."

After all, when General Zhaode went to the northwest, Jiang Li was not born yet. For a girl of Jiang Li's age, she should have rarely heard of this name. Maybe many people in Yanjing City have long forgotten such a person.

"Is he the one the Duke wants to talk about?"

Ji Heng's eyes dimmed slightly, and he didn't answer. After a while, he slowly raised the corners of his lips and said, "Who knows?"

Jiang Li looked at him, and Ji Heng didn't know what he was thinking, which made his amber eyes seem much darker. She couldn't guess what Ji Heng was thinking, but she was sensitive enough to realize that this Xia Jun Wang, General Zhaode, might have a profound impact on Ji Heng.

She suddenly thought of another brave and combative general in Beiyan, Ji Heng's biological father, General Jinwu Ji Minghan. Back then, there was Bei Jinwu and Nan Zhaode called himself.
