Jiang Yuqi looked at Jiang Jilian, with a determined light in her eyes: "Brother, I want you to help me find Song Mingxuan to ask for an explanation."

Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Yuqi, Song Mingxuan is not someone you can easily mess with. If he knew that it was you who asked me to find him, he might do something bad to you."

Jiang Yuqi bit her lip, took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Brother, I know it's dangerous to do this, but I can't stand that kind of life anymore. I would rather take the risk and seek justice for myself."

Jiang Jilian looked at Jiang Yuqi's eyes and felt distressed. Then he said slowly: "Yuqi, don't worry, I will help you find Song Mingxuan to ask for an explanation. But before that, you must first tell me what happened to you in Ningguo Mansion."

Jiang Yuqi said, "Brother, my life in the Ningguo Mansion was simply not a human life. Song Mingxuan...he was not good to me. He always stayed out all night. The servants in the mansion also looked down on me, thinking that I was an outsider and not worthy of respect. I had to endure their sarcasm every day and pretend that nothing happened, so as not to worry mother and sister."

Jiang Jilian's eyes were filled with anger, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if he was going to rush out and teach Song Mingxuan a lesson. He took a deep breath, and then slowly said: "Yuqi, don't worry, I will help you get justice. But before that, you must rest and recover your strength."

Jiang Yuqi nodded, a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes: "Brother, thank you."

Jiang Jilian patted Jiang Yuqi's shoulder gently and said firmly: "Yuqi, don't worry, I will protect you."

Jiang Yuqi looked at Jiang Jilian with eyes filled with gratitude and hope.

Jiang Jilian was also filled with emotion. He remembered that when he was a child, Jiang Yuqi always followed him and sweetly called him "big brother". At that time, Yuqi was innocent and carefree. But now, she has to face such a predicament, which makes him feel distressed.

"Yuqi, I know you are in pain now, but you have to believe that everything will be fine." Jiang Jilian said softly.

Jiang Yuqi looked at Jiang Jilian, tears in her eyes: "Brother, thank you."

Jiang Jilian patted Jiang Yuqi's shoulder gently, then turned and left.

After the funeral, Jiang Jilian found Song Mingxuan. He couldn't let Jiang Yuqi get hurt again.

"Song Mingxuan, I want to talk to you about something." Jiang Jilian's voice was calm, but his eyes were full of anger.

Song Mingxuan looked at Jiang Jilian, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "My Lord, what can I do for you?"

Jiang Jilian took a deep breath and said slowly: "Song Mingxuan, I know you treated Yuqi badly in Ningguo Mansion. As her brother, I have the responsibility to protect her."

Song Mingxuan sneered: "Are you threatening me, Lord?"

Jiang Jilian's eyes were firm: "Song Mingxuan, I don't mean to threaten you. I just want you to know that Yuqi is my sister and I won't let her get hurt."

Song Mingxuan's expression suddenly turned ugly. He stared at Jiang Jilian and said in a cold tone, "My Lord, are you interfering in the private affairs between me and my wife?"

Jiang Jilian's eyes became more determined. He looked at Song Mingxuan and said calmly, "Song Mingxuan, Yuqi is my sister and I have the responsibility to protect her. I heard that you treated her badly in Ningguo Mansion. I want to know what happened."

Song Mingxuan sneered. He looked at Jiang Jilian and said sarcastically, "My Lord, are you concerned about your sister, or do you want to use this opportunity to threaten me?"

Jiang Jilian's eyes flashed with anger, but he quickly suppressed his emotions and responded calmly: "Song Mingxuan, I don't want to threaten you, I just want to know the truth. Yuqi is my sister, and she marries you, so I naturally hope she can live a happy life."

Song Mingxuan's eyes flashed with disdain. He looked at Jiang Jilian and said sarcastically, "My Lord, who do you think you are? What do you think you can change? Yuqi is mine. Whether she lives a good life or a bad life has nothing to do with you."

Jiang Jilian's face suddenly turned livid, and he clenched his fists tightly, as if he was going to rush out and teach Song Mingxuan a lesson. He took a deep breath, and then slowly said, "Song Mingxuan, you've gone too far. Yuqi is my sister, and I naturally hope that she can live a happy life when she marries you. But you treat her badly in Ningguo Mansion, which I cannot tolerate."

Song Mingxuan sneered, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he responded slowly: "Jiang Jilian, are you teaching me a lesson? Don't forget, this is the Ningguo Mansion, not your Zhenxing Marquis Mansion. In this mansion, I have the final say."

Jiang Jilian frowned. He knew Song Mingxuan's arrogance and self-conceit, but he couldn't just sit there and watch his sister get wronged. He said in a deep voice, "Song Mingxuan, aren't you afraid of arousing public anger by doing this? Yuqi is your wife, you should treat her well instead of letting her be bullied in the mansion."

Song Mingxuan smiled contemptuously, his eyes swept over the fist in Jiang Jilian's hand, and his tone became even more harsh: "Public outrage? Ha, who among the people here is not a villain who currys favor with the powerful? They can only gossip behind my back, but dare not really do anything to me. As for Yuqi, she is just an insignificant woman. What does her life and death have to do with me?"

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall of the Ningguo Mansion became increasingly tense. The servants and guards around were staring with bated breath, not daring to make a sound.

Jiang Jilian's face became increasingly gloomy. He clenched his teeth, trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Song Mingxuan, what you did is not only unfair to Yuqi, but also to the reputation of the Ningguo Mansion. I advise you to restrain yourself and not make things worse."

Song Mingxuan's eyes widened, staring at Jiang Jilian angrily: "Jiang Jilian, who do you think you are? You are just a Zhenxing Marquis, what qualifications do you have to teach me? I tell you, this Ningguo Mansion is my world, whoever dares to go against me, I will make him pay!"

Lady Ningguo glanced at Jiang Jilian, a hint of dissatisfaction flashed in her eyes, then turned to Song Mingxuan and said in a serious tone: "Mingxuan, what are you doing? This is Ningguo Mansion, not your world. Jiang Jilian is your wife's brother, how can you talk to him like this?"

Song Mingxuan glared at Jiang Jilian, then turned to his mother with an impatient tone: "Mother, Jiang Jilian is here to accuse me of treating Yuqi badly, so of course I have to refute it. Am I going to let him accuse me and not dare to talk back?"

Lady Ningguo frowned, sighed, and said to Jiang Jilian, "Jilian, I know you care about Yuqi, but you should also understand that this is Ningguo Mansion, not your Zhenxing Marquis Mansion. You are only making things worse by blaming Mingxuan here."

Jiang Jilian lowered his head and thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Madam, I didn't mean to offend you, but I'm really worried about Yuqi. I'm willing to take a step back, but please promise Mingxuan that you won't treat Yuqi badly again."

Song Mingxuan glared at Jiang Jilian, his tone still harsh: "Okay, I can promise you, but the premise is that you can't interfere in the affairs of our Ningguo Mansion again."

Lady Ningguo nodded slightly and said to Jiang Jilian, "Jilian, since you have agreed, please go back. I believe Mingxuan will keep his promise."
