"Okay, if I have a chance to see His Majesty then, I will definitely tell His Majesty."

Jiang Rui was secretly happy in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface, "Then I will immediately arrange for the second sister to meet with His Majesty."

Jiang Ruanxi nodded and said, "But Third Brother, before that I want to trouble you to help me with something."

Jiang Rui frowned, "Second sister, nothing is as important as the safety of my second brother. Why don't we wait until the second brother comes out?"

I'm afraid that when Jiang Changjun comes out, he will kill the donkey.

Jiang Ruanxi had a smile on his face.

"Third brother doesn't know. My family's matter is quite urgent. If it's not resolved soon, I'm afraid I won't be in the mood to see His Majesty then."

This was a threat, and Jiang Rui was very unhappy.

But for the sake of the overall situation, Jiang Rui did not show it. Instead, he smiled and said, "Second sister, tell me."

Jiang Ruanxi stopped talking to him and said directly, "I want the Yongning Marquis Mansion to come to the Lin family to propose marriage to Lin Tingting."

"Second sister, are you crazy?" Jiang Rui's eyelids froze, naturally he didn't want to agree to this hot potato.

"The Yongning Marquis Mansion is also a Marquis Mansion after all. If the Lin family has not been deprived of their titles, they can give it a try. But now that the Lin family has been deprived of their titles, it is far from the status of the Yongning Marquis Mansion. This marriage is not appropriate at all."

There were so many embarrassing things happening to the Lin family, and he didn't want to help them bring up Lao Shizi's marriage. He wanted to avoid it when he saw it.

Jiang Ruan Xi didn't miss the disgust in his eyes, and the smile on his face became brighter.

"Since Third Brother is unwilling, just pretend that I didn't say anything about it. As for the matter of meeting with His Majesty, let me go back and think about it."

The meaning is obvious, if you don't agree to this, she will not agree to see His Majesty.

After repeated threats, even the usually smiling Hu Jiangrui could no longer maintain a smile on his face and suddenly sank.

He stared at Jiang Ruan Xi like a poisonous snake, as if if Jiang Ruan Xi made any move, he would step forward and bite her to death.

Jiang Ruan Xi was shocked by what he saw, but she still pretended to be calm.

After a while, Jiang Rui slowly spoke.

"Okay, I promise you. I will definitely give the second sister an answer within three days. I just ask the second sister to remember what I said."

"Of course!"

After Jiang Ruanxi left, Jiang Leilin came in with an angry face to remind him.

"Third brother, Jiang Ruanxi is cunning and scheming. We were fooled because we underestimated her before. Don't believe her so easily."

He had heard Jiang Ruan Xi's words from behind the screen just now. He had not thought that Jiang Ruan Xi had changed now. He had underestimated her before.

"No matter how powerful she is, she is just a mere woman. Now that the Lin family has been destroyed, the only one she can rely on is the Lin family. Don't worry, she doesn't dare to jump around."

Jiang Rui sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip, looking unconcerned.

Thinking of something, Jiang Rui looked at Jiang Leilin and told her, "Go and comfort your mother. When the second brother is rescued, I will ask Jiang Ruanxi to go down and apologize to Xueer."

Speaking of the latter part, his face was filled with murderous intent.

The cup in his hand was placed heavily on the table, and a lot of the tea in the cup spilled out.

Jiang Leilin knew that Jiang Rui, like him, had no intention of letting Jiang Ruan Xi go, so he also sat next to him.

"The third brother still has a way, but Jiang Ruanxi seems to be different from before, so I'm afraid that something will happen to her along the way."

Although Jiang Leilin is a second-rank official, he still respects Jiang Rui very much in the Jiang family.

Jiang Rui disagreed, "Don't worry, I will make her pay the price."

She is just the daughter of a businessman. In front of him, an imperial businessman with great wealth, all this is not enough.

He wanted Jiang Ruan Xi to see how powerful he was, how he dared to kill the gentle and kind-hearted Xue'er, and even put Jiang Changjun in jail.

Jiang Rui's eyes exuded a strong murderous aura.

Jiang Ruan Xi, who had no idea about all this, returned directly to the Lin Mansion.

Jiang Ruanxi returned home and quietly waited for information from the unknown Taoist, but Lin Tingting was anxious.

I came to my door several times and wanted to speak but didn’t know how.

Jiang Ruanxi saw it in his eyes and took a sip of tea calmly, "Third sister, you came to see me early in the morning, but you have something?"

Lin Tingting's face tightened. Although she was so brave and dared to meet men privately at night, she still had a sense of courtesy and shame, and she didn't say anything after lingering for a long time.

"Third sister, I'm still busy today. If you have nothing to do, please come back."

Lin Tingting's hands clenched tightly into a fist. In the end, vanity defeated her reason.

"It's been a day, why is there still no movement in Yongninghou Mansion?"

Jiang Ruanxi looked at her fierce but weak expression, and a hint of ridicule appeared in the corner of her mouth, "Does the third sister hate getting married so much?"

Lin Tingting's face turned pale. She had known that she would use this matter to humiliate herself, but she couldn't care so much anymore.

"I'm just afraid that you won't keep your promise and force me to sign those boxes, but nothing will be done."

"If Third Sister is in a hurry, you can find someone else. Then I can ask someone to tear up the signed treaty for you."

"Who says I can't wait? I'm just afraid that you will fool me." Lin Tingting defended forcefully.

"If Third Sister doesn't want to delay things, she'd better go back and wait. I can't eat hot tofu if I'm anxious about the wedding."

Lin Tingting was naturally dissatisfied, but now she still needed to rely on Jiang Ruan Xi, and she didn't dare to get angry, so she could only leave in anger.

Hongye said, "Madam, why don't you tell Miss Third that you have someone come to talk about this matter?"

"The matter hasn't been finalized yet, so there's nothing wrong with making her anxious."

Lin Tingting was originally a straightforward person. She was worried about this matter and wished that there would be an immediate result.

But Jiang Ruan Xi chose not to say anything at this juncture.

Thinking of Lin Tingting's anxious look, Hongye felt quite relieved.

"Madam, I don't understand. You obviously hate the third young lady, but why did the eldest lady not help the third young lady this time, but you did?"

"Who said I was helping her?"

Hongye didn't understand even more, "Madam, why are you so busy running around?"

Jiang Ruanxi smiled faintly, "Only a fool like Lin Tingting would think that Sun Chengye of Yongning Houfu is a good marriage. She is going to jump into the fire pit, why should I stop her?"

Hongye was still confused and didn't understand, and Jiang Ruanxi didn't explain, but sooner or later she would understand.

"By the way, is there any news from the unknown Taoist?"

"Madam, if you didn't tell me, I almost forgot about this. News came from Shugen, saying that Master Biandu wants to see you."

Master Biandu?

Not an unknown Taoist?
