"what?"

Jiang Li asked indifferently.

"Mother will know tomorrow morning."

Xie Yulang smiled brightly and immediately asked, "After mother escapes from the Marquis' Mansion, where will she go and what will she do?"

"This has nothing to do with you."

Jiang Li's expression was as cold as ever. She looked at Xie Yulang and her words were cold and hurtful.

"Xie Yulang, you should know that I am not your biological mother."

Now she and Xie Jun have obtained the divorce papers, and she is just waiting for the position of Crown Prince's Consort to be removed, then she will have no connection with the Marquis' Mansion at all.

Xie Yulang's constant use of the word "mother" was an insult to her.

Xie Yulang's face stiffened slightly, and he obviously realized what Jiang Li meant.

According to how much he cared about Jiang Li in the past, he should be tactful now and not mention the word "mother" and should call her Jiang Li instead.

But Xie Yulang didn't.

He maintained an unpleasant expression and repeated what he had said before.

"No, in my heart, from beginning to end, you are the only mother."

Xie Yulang said bitterly: "Whether you like it or not, whether you admit it or not, I will always be your son."

Even so, he is the cuckoo that has taken over the magpie's nest.

Jiang Li's care for him over the past seven years was genuine.

They are not biological mother and son, but they are mother and son in name, and in reality.

"what!"

Jiang Li just felt it was ironic, but they were all decent people.

Considering that he had contributed to the fire in the ancestral hall, which allowed her plan to be implemented smoothly.

She suppressed her murderous intent and sneered, "Xie Yulang, do you think you are worthy?"

These words were very blunt and directly tore the relationship apart.

Without waiting for Xie Yulang's answer, Jiang Li spoke first.

"I have already made it very clear, don't try to be friendly with me anymore."

Xie Yulang was silent for a moment, his face turned terribly pale.

His eyes became red again, but he didn't make a fuss.

She just held back the tears that were about to overflow from her eyes and nodded.

"Yes, Miss Jiang... Miss Jiang."

After Jiang Li and Xie Jun divorced, Anguo Mansion ceased to exist and her identity became just Miss Jiang.

"But there is something else. If nothing else, please don't show up in front of me again."

Jiang Li was impatient to see Xie Yulang like this. She said coldly that she didn't want to see Xie Yulang again for a moment.

Xie Yulang hesitated for a long time, but finally said it.

"Ms. Jiang, have you found the person you were looking for?"

Since he was the child that was exchanged by Xie Jun and Xiao Yan for Jiang Li's name, Jiang Li was naturally also looking for the whereabouts of the three children that Jiang Li gave birth to.

I originally wanted Jiang Li to tell me so that he could help find it.

However, Jiang Li was unwilling to say it, so he had to speak up.

It was only after knowing his life experience that Xie Yulang understood why Jiang Li had left Beijing several times.

Although the three children were said to be dead, Jiang Li was worried about them, so they were probably still alive.

But Jiang Li hasn’t been found yet.

And, Jiang Li brought Jiang Yuanchen back from outside and took good care of him.

Maybe this is one of them.

He was jealous of Jiang Yuanchen, not only because Jiang Li treated Jiang Yuanchen specially, but also because Jiang Yuanchen and Jiang Li were similar.

They are like real mother and son.

Jiang Yuanchen left Kyoto because of Xie Jun and the Marquis' Mansion.

If Jiang Yuanchen is really Jiang Li's child, then...

"What if I find it? What if I don't find it?"

Jiang Li didn't expect Xie Yulang to be so stubborn. She said impatiently, "Xie Yulang, this has nothing to do with you."

"It's getting late. I need to rest."

There was no point in listening to Xie Yulang any further, so Jiang Li sent him away directly.

"I just want to make amends."

Xie Yulang's lips moved a few times and he whispered.

However, seeing the cold look on Jiang Li's brows, Xie Yulang also understood that what Jiang Li needed was not compensation, but revenge.

Xie Yulang was completely speechless. He bowed to Jiang Li and walked out of the room.

The next day, Jiang Li finally understood what the other great gift Xie Yulang was talking about.

"Miss, the Princess of Mingzhu County is dead!"

Early in the morning, Jiang Li had just gotten up and washed when Qingzhu came to report in a hurry.

Xiao Yan is dead!

"How did you die?"

Jiang Li's eyebrows did not move and his face was calm.

I already had a guess in my mind.

Xiao Yan had a miscarriage and was bedridden for at least ten days to half a month.

However, the fire last night burned the entire ancestral hall, including the west courtyard.

The maids and servants around Xiao Yan had all been tortured by her, and their hearts had long been on the edge of despair.

With the big fire last night, basically no one would go deep into the fire and sacrifice themselves to save her.

Sure enough, Qingzhu said excitedly: "It was the big fire last night!"

"It is said that the county lady had already drunk a tranquilizer, and she was sleeping soundly when the fire started. By the time the fire got bigger, it was too late to go in and save her."

In fact, the situation at that time was far more simple than Qingzhu described in a few words.

The fire in the west yard started gradually last night.

No one cared about Xie Jun holding the family tree in the ancestral hall, and no one paid attention to him in the west courtyard either.

They were all trying to save the main ancestral hall and the east courtyard.

Although Xiao Yan drank a sedative, she was choked awake by the thick smoke.

The cries of despair in the west courtyard were so shrill that they could be heard in the ancestral hall.

However, the elders and servants in the ancestral hall all acted as if they were deaf.

He waited until the fire in the ancestral hall was put out before going to put out the fire in the west courtyard.

However, it was too late by then.

In the west yard, Xiao Yan screamed miserably and was on the verge of death. In the end, all they managed to save was a charred corpse.

"It turned out to be a wildfire during hunting."

Jiang Li smiled and said casually.

This was originally a play that the emperor wanted to divert attention from his own immorality, but unexpectedly it became Xiao Yan's final fate due to a series of twists and turns.

Being burned to death by the raging fire can be considered a blessing that Xiao Yan had earned.

"That's right! God has eyes!"

Qingzhu didn't really believe that the forest fire that day was the wrath of God, but this was really a coincidence, so she is willing to believe it now.

Jiang Li smiled and asked, "What's Xie Jun's reaction?"

"No."

When Qingzhu received the news of Xiao Yan's death in the morning, he specifically inquired about Xie Jun's news.

But, unfortunately, Xie Jun didn't have any special reaction when he found out Xiao Yan was dead.

She pursed her lips, "Miss, Xie Jun is a heartless man. After all, Xiao Yan is his wife, but he..."

Qingzhu thought about the news he had heard and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.

"He seems happy."

It's really disgusting.

"Of course he will be happy."

Jiang Li laughed. Xie Jun was a selfish person. All his plans were just for himself.

Xiao Yan is just his stepping stone.

In this life, Xiao Yan ruined his reputation, and he wished Jiang Li would die sooner.

Jiang Li didn't say anything more. After breakfast, Xie Jun's carriage came to the inn, urging Jiang Li to return to Kyoto.

The dead Xiao Yan had long been forgotten by Xie Jun.

Jiang Li and his party naturally did not refuse and immediately set off for Beijing.

They had just arrived in Kyoto and had not yet returned to the Marquis' Mansion when carriages from Prince Yong's Mansion blocked their way.
