The Crown Princess is reborn, and the three treasures compete to burn the family tree

"General Chu?"

Jiang Li was surprised that the person who stopped their carriage was Chu Zhengyu.

The general of the Changsheng Army and Chu Ninghan's right-hand man.

"Princess, the prince wants to see you."

Chu Zhengyu rode a tall horse and bowed to Jiang Li, suppressing the anxiety in his eyes.

Fortunately, Jiang Li returned to the capital today. If they couldn’t wait for her, they would have to go to Pingsheng to find her in person.

"May I ask why the prince invited me to his house?"

Jiang Li's eyelashes drooped and his expression became gloomy.

Since the hunt, Chu Ninghan would not look for her for no reason.

Moreover, what on earth was going on that Chu Ninghan actually dared to use his own name to invite her?

Last time, he still used the name of Chu Mingzhao.

"Princess, this is a confidential matter and cannot be discussed here."

Chu Zhengyu shook his head, but kept his mouth shut.

Fortunately, there was no one else on the road, and the staff of Prince Yong's Mansion had cleared a space in advance.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.

He turned to Qingzhu and said, "Qingzhu, you send Master Xie back home. Everything will remain the same. We will discuss this again when I return home."

Since Chu Ninghan invited her, she had to go.

"Yes, miss!"

Qingzhu has known for so long that he also knows that Jiang Li has a deep connection with Prince Yong's Mansion.

Jiang Li just went ahead. With her watching over the Marquis' Mansion, Xie Jun wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

Although Jiang Li had already written the divorce letter, the transfer of power in the Marquis' Mansion would not be a matter of one or two days, not to mention that Jiang Li still had the imperial edict and the title of Crown Prince's Consort.

Assisting in the management of Yongning Marquis' Mansion is a perfectly normal thing.

Xie Jun, who was in the last carriage, had no idea about this. He was worried all the way, fearing that Jiang Li would kill him on the way if he was unhappy.

Fortunately, he has arrived in Kyoto now. With the divorce letter in his arms, he is only looking forward to meeting the emperor as soon as possible.

As for Xie Yulang, he discovered it directly, but he just watched in silence as Jiang Li arranged the carriages and horses for the Marquis' Mansion.

I saw with my own eyes Jiang Li's carriage heading straight to Prince Yong's Palace, escorted by the palace's men.

It is already the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, and there has been some snow in Kyoto. The air is dry and cold.

Normally, Jiang Li's carriage should have stopped outside Prince Yong's Mansion, but Chu Zhengyu and others took Jiang Li directly into the palace.

The reason for doing this is that Jiang Li can save time and enter the inner courtyard faster.

After getting off the carriage, familiar-looking guards came to greet him, and the road he was walking on was also a shortcut often taken by the masters of the palace.

The two previous times I came to the palace, I was a guest and walked in the outer courtyard.

This time, he led Jiang Li directly to the inner courtyard.

Everything I see on the road is unfamiliar.

Jiang Li slightly pursed the corners of his lips, having a bad feeling in his heart.

Prince Yong's Mansion is on such high alert, could it be that something happened to Chu Ninghan or Chu Mingzhao?

When Chu Ninghan first met Yufeng, he asked her to save someone. Is this the time to save someone?

Jiang Li's mind was full of thoughts along the way, but finally, when he saw the courtyard in front of him, all thoughts disappeared.

"East Warm Pavilion."

Under the snow, the courtyard is full of greenery, exotic flowers and rare herbs, and is full of vitality.

In addition, all the pavilions and towers in the courtyard are exquisite and eye-catching, which shows that the person who arranged this place was very attentive.

The guard leading the way also stopped and said, "Miss Jiang, the East Warm Pavilion is where the princess lives. Please come in."

I don’t know if it’s because of Qingzhu’s way of addressing her, but since she arrived at Prince Yong’s Mansion, everyone who saw her in Prince Yong’s Mansion called her Miss Jiang.

Jiang Li nodded and walked into the east warm room.

The East Warm Pavilion is called a pavilion, but it actually has many buildings, large and small palaces and pavilions.

Jiang Li walked straight ahead and did not meet anyone else on the road.

It was not until I reached the main hall that I saw many figures.

Jiang Li frowned. There were more than ten doctors and guards guarding in the courtyard at the entrance.

However, Chu Ninghan and Chu Mingzhao were nowhere to be seen.

Instead, there was a smell of blood spreading in the air, and the closer you got, the stronger the smell became.

"Miss Jiang, you are here!"

As soon as Jiang Li appeared, everyone at the door saw her.

The first to be hit was the guard who had followed Chu Ninghan before, and he hurried over to greet him.

"Please come in, the prince and the monarch are waiting for you in the room."

The door opened and the smell of blood became stronger.

The scene inside the room also came into Jiang Li's eyes.

Chu Ninghan sat on a chair in front of a lotus screen. He was wearing black clothes and had his eyes covered with a white scarf. He was dressed the same as usual, but his expression was very ugly.

Jiang Li's heart sank, it seemed that it was Chu Mingzhao who was in trouble.

She walked in quickly and the door closed immediately.

Before he could open his mouth, Chu Ninghan spoke first.

"Jiang Li, today is the day when you need to fulfill your promise."

This is the contract they signed on Yufeng Mountain.

He helped her to overthrow the Anguo Mansion and told her about her younger brother, and Jiang Li wanted to help him save people.

"it is good."

It has been more than a month since the Autumn Hunt. Jiang Li has become very calm when facing Chu Ninghan and has been able to suppress his original emotions.

"Who does Prince Yong want me to save?"

"Don't you want to know about your little brother first?"

Chu Ninghan stared at Jiang Li steadily, feeling empty and inexplicably frightened.

Given Jiang Li's obsession with him, it is impossible for him to ask to save people before knowing any news about him.

This is not in line with Jiang Li's personality.

The last time at the waterside pavilion, Jiang Li was still trying to confirm whether he was the little brother from that year.

It’s impossible that Jiang Li could just go to Pingsheng and let it go.

"Ah."

Jiang Li's laughter was too short and too light.

It was almost misunderstood as just a big gasp, not a laugh.

"Yes, I had forgotten about this. Prince Yong, you promised me to tell me his news, although only half of it, but please keep your promise and tell me first."

Jiang Li looked at Chu Ninghan who still had a calm expression. He didn't know now that she had confirmed that he was once her little brother.

If Chu Ninghan wanted her not to know, then she should pretend not to know.

After all, this was the agreement between her and Chu Ninghan.

However, she did want to know what information Chu Ninghan would reveal about her little brother to deceive her.

"The little brother you are looking for is still alive, but..."

Chu Ninghan was suspicious of Jiang Li's short laugh before, and the words he had prepared were stuck in his throat.

"But what? Prince Yong, just tell me directly. I am all ears."

Chu Ninghan slightly pursed the corners of his lips, Jiang Li's reaction was not right.

How much Jiang Li was obsessed with him as her little brother in the past could be seen from the fact that she had done business with him several times.

She cares about him even more than her three children.

But now Jiang Li’s attitude seems more like giving up.

She no longer cared about the news about her little brother and let him tell her or not.

Chu Ninghan's heart skipped a beat.

Jiang Li...

Could it be that he has confirmed his identity?

Chu Ninghan suddenly remembered that when they were at the water pavilion, Jiang Li had used his hand to confirm the scar on his forehead.

At that time, Jiang Li did not confirm his identity.

She herself said that she was wrong.

But what if Jiang Li lied to him!
