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

"Yes."

Qingzhu offered Jiang Li a cup of new tea and said as he stood beside the flower stand.

"Miss, the Yan family has few descendants, the main branch is weak, and the branches are eyeing them covetously. Yan Liuzhu is the daughter of the Yan family master in his old age, and also the only descendant, so she was established as the young master very early on."

In this respect, the Yan family and Prince Yong's Palace are very similar.

Although Chu Ninghan did not request to be named the Crown Prince, there was no doubt that Chu Mingzhao would be the future King of Yong.

Even though there are few female protagonists in the Great Zhou Dynasty, as long as you are determined, all difficulties and obstacles can be overcome.

"The head of the Yan family regards Yan Liuzhu as the apple of his eye. She is surrounded by many guards, so it is basically impossible to find out any information."

Therefore, even if there were only a few tutors, no one knew who they were.

It took them a lot of effort to find out that some of them were children who were rescued from the disaster.

Such people are most likely Yan Liuzhu's trusted confidants, loyal subordinates who are willing to die for her.

If number 124C is among them, I don’t know whether to say it is lucky or unlucky.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment, then asked, "Is there any banquet held by Yan family recently?"

It would not work just by eavesdropping secretly, she had to go there in person.

"some."

Yuzhi opened the beaded curtain and walked in quickly with an invitation.

She smiled and said, "Miss, Yan Liuzhu's birthday is coming this year. Nine days later, the Yan Mansion will invite guests to celebrate Yan Liuzhu's birthday at the Yan Manor."

"Here's an invitation."

Yuzhi placed the invitation next to Jiang Li's hand. One glance could tell how much importance Yan attached to the birthday party.

The invitation card with a golden and red background is embroidered with gold thread, and it is no exaggeration to say that every inch of paper is worth its weight in gold.

The merchants of the Great Zhou were wealthy but had a very low status, so they tried their best to establish relationships with the nobles. To this banquet, the Yan family invited all the famous and large nobles in Huainan City.

In the aristocratic era of the Great Zhou Dynasty, everyone was aristocrat and no one dared to pretend to be one, so even Jiang Li, a noble lady from Rongcheng, received an invitation.

Jiang Li’s identity could not be false, as it was personally given by the prefect of Rongcheng.

Last year, she sent a huge sum of money to help Rongcheng build water conservancy projects, and with Lu Lingyun taking care of the matter, she had already become famous in Rongcheng.

But she really didn't want this reputation to fall on the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, so she allowed Rongcheng to have a noble lady named Jiang.

The reason why Jiang Yuanchen was able to register for household registration without any hindrance at that time was because he had the same surname, Jiang.

They gave Jiang Yuanchen the status of a commoner out of Jiang Li's consideration.

Otherwise, Jiang Yuanchen, a child of unknown origin, would most likely become a government slave and be a slave for the rest of his life.

"Very good, carefully prepare a valuable gift for him, and make sure he can directly meet Yan Liuzhu and the head of the Yan family."

Jiang Li put down the invitation and knocked on the table.

After nine days, I will be able to see Yan Liuzhu with my own eyes.

At that time, you will also have the opportunity to meet the tutors in person.

Nine days passed in a flash, and the ground in Huainan in February was already covered with flowers.

The Yan family manor is extremely large, comparable to the size of an ordinary palace, but its white walls and green tiles make it look much more low-key.

It was a warm spring day with bright sunshine.

There was a lot of traffic outside Yan's manor, with many people coming and going.

However, upon closer inspection, most of them are merchants.

The frames of the carriages used by the nobles for travel were all engraved with family crests and patterns, but there were basically no carriages and horses from outside the Yan family manor that had family crests and patterns on them.

This also means that when the Yan family sent out invitations to host a banquet for all the nobles in Huainan City, even though the Yan family was the richest family in Huainan, those nobles were too proud to come.

Therefore, when Jiang Li's carriage appeared, it immediately attracted a lot of attention, and the guests who came were all cramming their necks to see the family emblem.

"It's the noble surnamed Jiang!"

"Using the hibiscus flower as the family emblem! Could it be the Jiang family of Rongcheng?"

The guests were in an uproar. Yan's old butler rubbed his eyes in disbelief and stared at the emblem on Jiang Li's carriage.

The nobles in the north might not be aware of this matter, but everyone in Huainan City knew about it.

Last year, a noble lady named Jiang from Rongcheng paid a large sum of money to build canals and improve the river channels inside and outside Rongcheng. Huainan City was within the scope of the water conservancy construction.

Therefore, during the flood in July, Huainan City was able to escape the flood safely.

The unbuilt areas, such as the rural areas of Lujia Village downstream, were all flooded.

Afterwards, nobles from Huainan to Rongcheng all wanted to visit Madam Jiang, but were all turned away. No one knew where Madam Jiang came from. They only knew that she was from Rongcheng and her family emblem was the hibiscus flower.

In the end, it was Lu Lingyun, the great scholar who lived in Cheng'an, Baidi City, who came forward, but this also made people more certain that Mrs. Jiang had an extraordinary origin.

Such a huge Buddha would actually come to Yan's Manor to attend a little girl's birthday party.

The housekeeper hurried forward to greet her, "Mrs. Jiang, your Excellency, please come in!"

The clever servant has already gone to ask the head of Yan family, no, more than that.

Mrs. Jiang from Rongcheng has arrived, and she wants to meet the birthday boy in person.

"Thank you."

Jiang Li got off the carriage and was respectfully led into the main hall by the butler.

Not long after they sat down, the head of the Yan family came quickly with Yan Liuzhu.

"Mrs. Jiang is so honored to be here. The Yan family is so ashamed for not welcoming you from afar!"

The head of the Yan family, Yan Yu, was about forty years old, dressed in luxurious attire. When he saw Jiang Li, he quickly bowed, feeling terrified but also excited.

Merchants are of low status, so it was unexpected that Jiang Li could come.

But since they are here now, as long as they can make friends with Madam Jiang, I'm sure the Yan family will be able to move to a higher level.

"Master Yan, you're welcome."

Jiang Li nodded slightly. Since she came here as Mrs. Jiang, she naturally expected that Yan would link her name with them in the future.

However, what the head of the Yan family did was a little too explicit, which was really unpleasant.

Jiang Li lowered his eyes and looked at the little girl following Yan Yu, who was about seven or eight years old.

The little girl was wearing a red and gold dress, made of precious material and well-cut, exuding luxury inside and out.

Fortunately, she was born cute and beautiful, so the overly heavy clothes did not drown her in the pile of gorgeous clothes.

"Is this Miss Yan?"

Jiang Li's expression softened a little. In her previous life, she had heard about Yan Liuzhu but had never seen her in person.

Who could have imagined that this little guy in front of him would single-handedly support the Yan family at the age of only ten and push the Yan family to the position of imperial merchants.

"My daughter Liuzhu is here to meet Madam Jiang."

Yan Liuzhu is now seven years old, eight years old in lunar age, and is as calm and steady as an adult.

She kowtowed to Jiang Li in a serious manner, and her behavior was much more standard than that of the daughters of ordinary noble families.

"Please stand up quickly. You are the birthday star today. No need to be polite."

The more Jiang Li looked at Yan Liuzhu, the more satisfied he was, so he said directly: "Qingzhu."

"A small token of my appreciation to wish Miss Liuzhu a happy new year."

Qingzhu immediately placed the gift in front of Yan Liuzhu. It was a red lacquered box with gold decoration.

When he opened it, he found that there was a piece of excellent jade inside the box.

Jade is a ceremonial object and is considered the most precious gift.

"Thank you ma'am!"

Yan Liuzhu and Yan Yu showed the same surprise on their faces, and for a moment the hall was filled with joy and laughter.

Yan Yu said, "Madam, you are kind and virtuous. I am honored to receive your gift today. If you need any help from the Yan family in the future, please let me know."

As long as I can get close to Jiang Li, everything is worth it.
