This is the first time Jiang Li has punished Lan Yin, and he must be punished.

Lan Yin, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. If she did something wrong, she should be punished. If Jiang Li didn't blame her, she would feel very uncomfortable.

After agreeing, Lan Yin turned and left.

Although she left this time, she did not forget to ask Ling Lan, who was waiting in front of Qin Jue, to come and guard the door.

Linglan was brought here from the Jiang family. No matter how much she respects Qin Jue, it is the Jiang family who is the most loyal to Jiang Li after all.

This way, you won't make the same mistakes again.

Jiang Li naturally heard the movement outside in the room. Lu Zhan glanced at her and said, "You are a good maid."

Jiang Li turned to look at him, "You're not bad either. After watching my joke for so long, you don't feel guilty at all?"

Lu Zhan: "..."

He coughed lightly and touched his nose in embarrassment, "I won't tell anyone."

"I know. After all, if you tell me, I will send your father a beauty the next day, so that you can have more wives to support."

Lu Zhan: "..."

He immediately thought of the miserable fate of the two people who had been gifted beauty by Jiang Li. He shuddered involuntarily, and then replied loudly, "Absolutely not!"

Jiang Li twitched his lips and sat back on the chair, "Okay, it's time to get back to business."

She raised her eyes and looked at Lu Zhan, "Can you give me a clear answer to the question you just asked?"

"If you are determined to be this coward, I will just pretend that you have not been here today."

Lu Zhan looked at her deeply, and then suddenly knelt down, "I am willing to join hands with the princess to prevent future troubles for you and me."

"But... I only represent myself. Everything has nothing to do with my father or the rest of the Lu family."

Although Jiang Li didn't explicitly state her plans, judging from Lu Zhan's understanding of her after contacting her several times, she was not the kind of person who would only suffer.

What's more, since you asked him like this, it must have been something you had planned, and you just asked him to find yourself an ally.

Since Lu Zhan has decided not to sit still and wait for death, cooperating with Jiang Li is indeed the best choice.

She was indeed smart, smarter than any woman he had ever seen...even men.

He has earned it by being able to cooperate with such a person.

Seeing Lu Zhan being so polite, Jiang Li couldn't help but smile softly.

"readily."

"Then Mr. Lu, please wish us happy cooperation in advance."

It's really good. Trade first, owe favors later, and then cooperate... Is this still far away from completely taking Lu Zhan into your pocket?

She has to thank the queen for this wave of assists.

"Then...princess, can you tell me your next plan?"

It was already late at night when Lu Zhan left quietly.

Jiang Li had been busy all day and was tired and sleepy.

However, the wound was still aching, which dissipated the sleepiness a lot.

After sitting alone for a while, she couldn't help but think of Qin Jue's words before.

Hmm... Regardless of whether it's true or not, but thinking about it carefully, she might have been a little too cruel to him.

A stick education is necessary, but occasionally... maybe a little gentleness should be given?

After all, you have to personally train yourself to create a man that you like, and you can't give up any emotion, otherwise he will be in danger of retaliating at any time.

Well, even if it is hypocritical, you still have to care when you should.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li finally made up his mind to stand up.

She wanted to go out directly, but when she reached the door, she suddenly remembered something, so she turned back to the cabinet and took out a bag of candy.

She bought the candy when she went shopping last time. She took a bite today and found it to be quite sweet, but that was all.

She felt tired of it all together, and she definitely wouldn't eat the rest, so she just used it to coax Qin Jue.

Qin Jue's room is next to Jiang Li's, but after what happened at night, he seemed to have gone out, and he didn't know if he came back.

Now she went over to knock on the door, but there was no sound for a long time. Just when she was thinking about opening the door and going in to take a look, she heard a cautious voice coming from behind her.

"Princess, the prince has rested in the guest room."

When Jiang Li turned around, there was Linglan standing behind him.

She said "Oh" and said, "Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Suzuran nodded, "It's inconvenient for Sister Lan Yin to receive the board, so I'll keep vigil for the princess for her."

Speaking of Lan Yin, Jiang Li asked, "Is she still seriously injured?"

After hesitating for a moment, Linglan said truthfully, "Sister Lan Yin asked not to be soft during the execution, so although no bones were hurt, the skin and flesh were inevitably torn."

"But Sister Lan Yin has a foundation in martial arts, so the princess doesn't have to worry too much."

Jiang Li lowered his eyes and looked at the candy in his hand, sighed and said, "Then take me to see her first."

When Jiang Li arrived, Lan Yin was already asleep, and there was another maid Shuixian from Jiang's family taking care of Qin Jue in the room.

Seeing Lan Yin sleeping, Jiang Li didn't wake her up. He only gave out more than half of the candy in his hand and left it with Lan Yin.

Hmm... She was injured and needed medicine. Chinese medicine was very bitter, so she needed sugar even more.

Qin Jue, a grown man, probably has no interest in sugar, so just leave some for him.

When leaving, Jiang Li told Narcissus, "Take good care of her and use the best medicine. Don't let the girl leave any scars."

Narcissus responded one by one and said with a smile, "Princess is so kind to Sister Lan Yin."

Jiang Li smiled, raised his hand and touched Narcissus' head, "They are all from the Jiang family, and I am just as good to you, but don't pick fights here."

Narcissus and Lily-of-the-Valley were so happy with just a few words that they almost shed tears when they saw Jiang Li's eyes sparkling.

"Linglan, take me to find Qin Jue."

Qin Jie stayed in the guest room, but when Jiang Li arrived, the lights in his room were still on and he had not fallen asleep.

Jiang Li thought for a moment, then waved his hand to signal Ling Lan to step back, and then he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Qin Jue's slightly alert voice came from the room, and Jiang Li said calmly, "It's me."

After she finished speaking, she heard no movement in the room. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and said, "Open the door for me, or I will tear it down."

After a pause, she raised her hand and pressed it on the door panel, "If you don't open it, I will really open it..."

Before he finished speaking, the door opened.

Qin Jue glanced at Jiang Li's hand in mid-air, "I've been coming to open the door for you since you said it was you."

"But it always takes time for me to get up and walk over. You're not so impatient, right?"

Jiang Li: "..."

Well, okay, she automatically assumed that Qin Jue was sulking and refused to open the door for her, so she seemed a little anxious.

She calmly put down her hands, crossed Qin Jue and walked into the house.

"What are you doing if you don't sleep so late?"

"Practice calligraphy."

Qin Jue said, "I've almost learned what you taught me last time, but my previous writing wasn't good enough. Recently, I got some copybooks from famous writers and I'm learning from them."

Jiang Li walked into the room, and sure enough he saw many pieces of paper messy on the table, with many words written densely on them.

She couldn't help but look back at Qin Jue, "I thought you were miserable alone even if you weren't crying in the room at this time. I didn't expect that your mentality adjusted quickly. Are you still in the mood to practice calligraphy?"
