When Qiao Lijie was making trouble, the servant in Xiniang's shop tactfully asked for the patrol team.

The capital city is directly governed by the emperor, so security under his rule is naturally more cautious.

These days, Lu Qingxiao was ordered to completely take over the responsibility of defending the capital, and was given the additional official position of commander of the capital garrison.

After receiving the news that the servant of Zhongzi Silver Tower had come to report the case, Lu Qingxiao personally led a team to Zhongzi Silver Tower.

However, Jiang Zhiyue handled the situation quickly. By the time Lu Qingxiao led his team over, the troublemakers had already been sent away.

Lu Qingxiao rode his horse closer to the carriage, "Have you been wronged?"

Jiang Zhiyue heard Lu Qingxiao's voice, lifted the curtain of the carriage, and it was indeed him.

"How can I bear such injustice? I asked Xin Jiu and Shi Qi to take him to his house."

Lu Qingxiao sent two secret guards to her, and the matter was made clear to the Princess and the Duke of England.

Lu Qingxiao was worried that Shen Mo was the only one by her side, and if Shen Mo was not around, she would have no one to protect her.

Jiang Zhiyue knew that Lu Qingxiao was worried about her because of the last incident at Shuhe Tower, so she accepted his kindness.

Lu Qingxiao chuckled when he heard this: "Very good, I'll let Zhang He take you back home."

Jiang Zhiyue was stunned. "No need. General Zhang has official business. Shen Mo is here."

The little girl's eyes were bright, and Lu Qingxiao's heart softened: "Okay."

Jiang Zhiyue let down the curtain, and his smiling face suddenly turned cold.

It is not difficult to hear from Qiao Lijie's words that the Qiao family must have some restless plans.

Jiang Zhiyue's eyes were as dark as the abyss, and she always protected her own people.

If the Qiao family dares to do anything improper, don't blame her for being ruthless.

After returning to the Duke's Mansion, Jiang Zhiyue went straight to Chunhui Hall.

Her second uncle was right. She was still young and had to learn to complain to her elders when something happened!

After hearing what happened, Old Lady Yan's face did not look very good.

The old lady has seen so many people and experienced so many storms.

There was something else behind Qiao Lijie's words. It was obvious that he was treating the Jiang family's daughter as a talent show!

The old lady looked furious and called Cheng Ma: "You go to the gatehouse and wait in person. When the second son comes back, ask him to come see me immediately."

Nanny Cheng took the order and left.

Jiang Zhiyue lay on the old lady's lap, her little face expressionless.

The old lady touched her and asked, "What? Are you scared?"

Jiang Zhiyue was listless and inexplicably upset: "My granddaughter is not afraid. I am not the one who should be afraid."

The old lady laughed and said, "Don't fool me, I'm talking about your fourth sister."

Jiang Zhiyue was exposed by the old lady at once. She felt it was boring and curled her lips: "Fourth sister is very happy now. If I beat her cousin, wouldn't it just spoil her fun?"

The old lady smiled when she heard this, "Do you regret it?"

"I don't regret it. Whoever speaks so slickly will be beaten."

Jiang Zhiyue pouted, her eyes full of anger: "I don't regret it!"

The old lady was calm and composed. "Since you have no regrets, there is nothing to worry about."

Jiang Zhiyue was stumped by the old lady's question and was unable to answer for a moment.

The old lady smiled and said, "It's nothing. Even sisters will have frictions and disagreements."

"All you have to do is know that you don't regret it."

After hearing the old lady's words, Jiang Zhiyue fell silent.

She understood what her grandmother meant.

Even sisters have their own personalities and temperaments. It is a blessing that they don't have any conflicts.

It is normal if there are quarrels.

It’s like how people should go in the future. Maybe there’s just a fork in the road and they will get lost.

But there is no regret in making a move.

Seeing her granddaughter so worried, the old lady couldn't help but laugh: "It's just that things may not be as bad as you think."

The old lady also discovered that Ah Chan had been thinking very pessimistically lately and always prepared for the worst.

Such a move seems to be well-thought-out, but in fact it is still full of anxiety.

Otherwise, why would we always think of a pessimistic consequence for everything?

Based on the old lady's understanding of the children, this incident might not be as Ah Chan thought, angering Wan Bai, and the two sisters would have a grudge against each other from then on.

After all, they are sisters who grew up together, and Wanbai is a child who speaks tough words but is soft-hearted.

Of course she would understand Achan's intentions.

As for Qiao Lijie, this uneducated man, even if Wan Bai called him cousin, he had to have such admirable character.

Our fourth young lady is a proud person.

After being reminded by the old lady, Jiang Zhiyue realized that he had fallen into a vicious circle again and fell silent.

The old lady was not in a hurry about Jiang Zhiyue's attitude.

She thought that Achan was still young and there was still time to teach her.

After finishing his shift, Mr. Jiang went to Shuhe Tower to pack some snacks.

When he returned to the Duke's Mansion, Nanny Cheng came to greet him and said, "Second Master, the old lady wants you to talk in Chunhui Hall."

Although Nanny Cheng's words were tactful, Master Jiang still keenly sensed that things might be a little tense.

Otherwise, Nanny Cheng wouldn't be waiting for him at the door.

The last time, that was many years ago.

When Mr. Jiang arrived at Chunhui Hall, Jiang Zhiyue had already returned to Yansi Courtyard.

The old lady told Mr. Jiang about the matter. After listening, Mr. Jiang nodded calmly and said, "Son, I understand. Don't worry, mother."

The old lady was indeed relieved. The second son didn't even raise his eyebrows after hearing this, and it was obvious that he understood.

She thought of her granddaughter's sad face and said with a smile, "Achan is worried for once."

Master Jiang also laughed and said, "She is young and has rarely seen such things. It is inevitable that she will be worried."

The old lady glanced at Mr. Jiang Er and said, "That's not what she's worried about."

Mr. Jiang was stunned. It's not this? What is it?

"Achan broke off the engagement with Guangchang Marquis's Mansion. Afterwards, she didn't say a word about it and just pretended that it never happened."

"What did she worry about?"

Master Jiang smiled and said, "Achan looks like a little adult on weekdays, but she is still a child."

The old lady said to Mr. Jiang very seriously: "Don't expose her, let her feel it for once."

Mr. Jiang nodded and agreed.

He left a few portions of the snacks he brought back from Shuhe Tower to the old lady, and asked Nanny Cheng to give them to the children in the eldest house.

After coming out of Chunhui Hall, Mr. Jiang walked slowly towards the second room.

He is actually a very good talker.

Is he too easy to talk to? It seems that anyone can climb over his head and step on him to climb up?

Master Jiang sneered, it would be fine if the Qiao family could live peacefully.

If you dare to cause any trouble in the Duke's Mansion, you'll have to go back to where you came from.

How dare you covet his daughter?

It’s simply wishful thinking!

The cold face of Master Jiang scared the servants of the second house. In all these years, who had ever seen the cold face of Master Jiang in the mansion?

Mr. Jiang returned to the main courtyard of the second house. When Mrs. Qiao saw Mr. Jiang returning home, she said goodbye in advance.

Mrs. Qiao sent her sister-in-law out. When she came back, she saw her husband's cold eyes and shuddered subconsciously: "Husband...what's wrong?"

Master Jiang asked quietly, "Madam, which one is more important to you, Wanbai or the Qiao family?"

Qiao's face suddenly turned pale.
