All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth
Chapter 129 Provocation
Jiang Yinli snatched the letter handed to him by Lu Yundi, and after reading the contents of the letter, he looked a little depressed.
He held the letter in his hand, his fists clenched so tightly that veins bulged.
Seeing this, Lu Yundi's eyes were full of worry and helplessness. She sighed softly and spoke slowly.
"Yinli, why are you so depressed?" Lu Yundi tried to comfort his son, with a hint of tenderness in his tone, "Doctor Feng has done his best. This medicine is rare, so it is understandable that it cannot be found for a while. Why do you have to torture yourself like this?"
Jiang Yinli lowered his head and clenched his hand holding the letter into a fist. He was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Mother, I... I am no longer the person I used to be. My leg injury prevents me from wielding the sword like before. How can I not be depressed?"
Lu Yundi looked at her son distressedly. She walked to Jiang Yinli, patted his shoulder gently, and said softly, "I know this is a heavy blow to you. But mother will always be with you."
Jiang Yinli raised his head, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes: "Mother, there is always a knot in my heart that I can't untie. I once dreamed of becoming a military general and serving the country, but now..."
There was a deep sense of helplessness and loss in Jiang Yinli's words. In his eyes, besides confusion, there was more struggle and resistance against his own fate.
Lu Yundi also felt heavy in her heart, but she knew better that what Jiang Yinli needed at this moment was not just comfort, but encouragement and strength.
"Yinli," Lu Yundi said softly, "There are always disappointments in life, but that doesn't mean you have to give up. You see, many heroes in history have experienced setbacks, but they never gave up."
Jiang Yinli shook his head slightly, seemingly unmoved: "Mother, I know the stories of those heroes, but they are about others, not me."
Lu Yundi took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Yinli firmly: "But, Yinli, you are your own hero. Your bravery, your tenacity, your determination, these are your weapons. Even if your legs can't wield the sword like before, your heart still can."
Jiang Yinli's eyes flashed with doubt, and he looked at his mother, as if looking for an answer. Although Lu Yundi's tone was gentle, the firmness in it was unquestionable.
"Mother, you are right, but my heart... my heart is in turmoil." Jiang Yinli lowered his head, his voice trembling slightly.
Lu Yundi sighed softly. The pain in her son's heart would not be relieved overnight. She sat down next to Jiang Yinli and placed her hand on the back of his hand, holding it warmly and firmly.
"Yinli, do you know? When your father was injured on the battlefield, he was once in despair. But he told me, 'Even if I can't go to the battlefield again, my heart and soul still belong to my country.'" There was a gleam in Lu Yundi's eyes, as if he was recalling the past.
Jiang Yinli raised his head, a strange light flashed in his eyes: "Father..."
"Yes, your father," Lu Yundi continued, "He told me with his actions that a person's value lies not only in his body, but also in his heart. You have the same blood as your father, and you have the same courage in your heart as your father."
Jiang Yinli was silent for a moment. He looked at his mother, and his eyes gradually became shiny. But he was still a little confused: "Mom, I understand what you mean, but my heart... my heart really hurts."
Lu Yundi gently patted his son's hand: "I know, Yinli. But you have to remember that pain is a catalyst for growth. It will make you stronger, as long as you are willing to face it."

"Sister-in-law, I think there is something wrong with Master Ji." Jiang Jixin had a serious face and spoke directly when he saw Lu Yundi.
Lu Yundi's heart sank. Could it be that Jiang Jixin discovered that Master Ji was a fake?
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, trying to make herself look calm. She gently patted Jiang Jixin's hand and slowly said, "Jixin, I know you care about the safety of the family, but this matter is very serious. We can't conclude that Master Ji has a problem based on speculation. Don't worry, I will investigate this matter myself."
Jiang Jixin looked at Lu Yundi with a hint of doubt in his eyes, but it was soon replaced by trust. He nodded: "Sister-in-law, I believe you. But you have to promise me that you will get to the bottom of this matter."
"Of course." Lu Yundi nodded slightly, secretly thinking about how to make up a reasonable reason. After a little thought, she came up with an idea.
Jiang Jixin's brows relaxed slightly, and his trust in Lu Yundi was obvious. Lu Yundi was secretly happy, but still kept a faint smile on her face.
"Jixin, as you know, the government has been busy lately, and I really can't spare time." Lu Yundi sighed softly, frowning slightly, looking somewhat helpless, "But since I promised you to investigate, I will definitely give you an explanation. However, this matter involves a lot of things, and I need time."
Jiang Jixin heard this, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes. He pondered for a moment, and then said: "Sister-in-law, I know your difficulties. How about this, I am willing to assist you in the investigation, so that the matter may be resolved faster."
Lu Yundi was shocked. She didn't expect Jiang Jixin to make such a request. After a little thought, she knew that she couldn't let him get involved. Otherwise, once he knew the truth, things would get out of control.
"Jixin, I appreciate your kindness, but this matter involves the family. If too many people know about it, it may cause unnecessary turmoil." Lu Yundi said slowly, with an unquestionable firmness in his tone, "I need someone to complete this task independently. Don't worry, I won't let you down."
Jiang Jixin's eyes flashed with a trace of struggle, but he finally nodded: "Sister-in-law, I understand. Then I'll trouble you."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The most important thing now is to make up a reasonable reason so that Jiang Jixin will no longer interfere in this matter.
"Jixin, Master Ji has been helping me deal with some matters recently, and his performance has always been outstanding." Lu Yundi deliberately emphasized the word "always" to make Jiang Jixin believe that Master Ji was fine. "I guess someone may have deliberately spread rumors to sow discord within our family. I will investigate secretly and find out who is behind it."
After hearing this, Jiang Jixin's expression eased a little: "Sister-in-law, what you said makes sense. Then I feel relieved. However, you must be careful not to let those people with ulterior motives succeed."
"Don't worry, Jixin." Lu Yundi patted Jiang Jixin's shoulder gently, his eyes revealing firm confidence, "I will find out the truth of this matter in the shortest possible time and clear Master Ji's name."
Jiang Jixin looked at Lu Yundi, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes.
"Sister-in-law, you've worked so hard." Jiang Jixin's tone was full of concern. He suddenly stood up, walked to Lu Yundi, and bowed deeply. "I understand. I won't let you worry anymore. In the future, I will be more careful and won't easily believe other people's rumors."
