Ji Chen smiled, "A happy event collides with a sad one, this is unlucky!"

"You did it." Li Cheng said directly. The "you" he mentioned naturally referred to the Su family and him.

"No matter which way Jiang Jinyan takes today, he will not have a smooth journey." Ji Chen's eyes flashed with gloom, "I'm afraid Miss Zhang will not be able to wait for Jiang Jinyan to pick her up."

"What do you mean?" Li Cheng was interested in his words.

"Lord Li, you will know if you go to the Zhang family in person. Zhang Yumo is indeed beautiful. If her body is defiled by someone, can she still marry Jiang Jinyan? If Jiang Jinyan marries a woman who has lost her virginity, the Zhang family will be in trouble."

Li Cheng seemed to sober up. He stood up from his seat and asked, "Are you looking for someone to sleep with Zhang Yumo?"

"It's not me, and it has nothing to do with me. It's because they have offended too many people." He wouldn't be so stupid as to do it himself, but he could help plan it. "Lord Li cares about her so much, could it be that Lord Li really likes her? If so, why doesn't Lord Li just go and grab the bride and leave the opportunity to himself."

Li Cheng grabbed Ji Chen's collar, his eyes flashing fiercely, "You want to use me to deal with Jiang Jinyan, who do you think you are?"

"I've said before, I can cooperate with Lord Li to help you win the beauty. The only person I want to deal with is Jiang Fenghua. Although she is Prince Heng's woman, sooner or later she will fall into my hands." He was full of confidence.

"You want to compete with His Royal Highness Prince Heng for a woman? You think too highly of yourself." Li Cheng mocked, "It turns out that Master Ji was also bewitched by the beauty of Princess Heng. How can you, a mere scholar,…"

"With General Su's Mansion, Prince Heng's Concubine Su is my adopted sister. The Su family and I are of one mind. Soon Concubine Su will be back. Lord Li, believe it or not, no matter what, Prince Heng will never give up the daughter of the Su family."

Li Cheng's heart trembled. The emperor had to rely on the Su family to guard the border. If Prince Heng was smart, he would not give up the daughter of the Su family. Winning over the Su family would be a great help to him. No matter how beautiful Prince Heng's wife was, she was only the daughter of a small tutor. She could not rely on civil servants to consolidate her position.

Li Cheng suddenly asked, "Brother Ji, did you also plant an insider in the Zhang Mansion?" He was a little tempted. Thinking of Zhang Yumo's face and figure, it would be better to give him a good advantage than to let others get it, and strike a blow to Jiang Jinyan at the same time.

But the Zhang family is holding a wedding banquet today, so it’s not so easy to go to the backyard.

Ji Chen nodded, "Even if the truth comes out, it has nothing to do with us, Lord Li, don't worry! Everything has been arranged. If you don't go, someone else will go naturally." Those people were found by Yun Fang, some desperate criminals who were paid to do things. If Li Cheng didn't want to get involved, the people Yun Fang found would sneak into the Zhang Mansion.

Li Cheng has done this kind of thing many times, and he has managed to get away with it every time. This time, he also felt lucky.

Now the Jiang family's wedding procession has been intercepted, unable to move forward or backward. The Jiang family's wedding procession is stuck halfway.

Li Cheng just said, "Take me to see it." Of course he would not take the risk alone, he would definitely bring Ji Chen along. If he dared to plot against him, he would not let him off.

At the same time, Zhang Mansion.

Zhang Yumo got up before dawn as she had not slept the night before. She was now dressed in a bright red wedding gown and dressed exquisitely in the room. Old Madam Zhang personally dressed her up. Both the grandmother and granddaughter were very happy on this happy day.

At this time, Jiang Fenghua and Aoxue walked in. Zhang Yumo said happily, "Princess, why are you here so early?"

Jiang Fenghua looked around. Only Madam Zhang and Zhang Yumo were in the room. The maids were not in the room. She smiled and said calmly, "Come and see the beautiful bride in advance. After you leave here, you will be my sister-in-law."

Zhang Yumo's face was full of shyness. "Can I also call you Third Sister?"

"Of course, we are a family. When my eldest brother comes to pick up the bride, I will go back to the Jiang Mansion with you. I will stay here with you."

Madam Zhang said happily, "The guests have arrived one after another. I will go out to entertain them. I am just waiting for the groom to come and pick them up. Princess, please sit with Moer for a while."

After Madam Zhang left, Jiang Fenghua signaled Aoxue to go outside to check. She knew that Madam Zhang II and Ji Chen had met a few days ago, but she didn't know what they discussed. After waiting for so many days, she didn't see any action from them.

Until Ji Chen met Li Cheng again, she always had a bad feeling in her heart, what if they joined forces to harm Zhang Yumo.

Today is eldest brother's big day, and there must not be any mistakes.

It's always better to be cautious.

If Ji Chen dared to do something bad, she would use the same trick against him and catch him in the trap.

She also did not dare to alarm Old Madam Zhang and other members of the Zhang family, fearing that they would reveal their flaws and alert Ji Chen, which would prevent the fish from taking the bait.

Aoxue deliberately walked outside and took a walk, and sure enough, she caught a sneaky maid under the back window in the corner. She brought the maid to Jiang Fenghua.

Zhang Yumo looked at her, "Qiuju, what are you doing outside the window?"

Qiu Ju dodged her gaze and said, "I didn't do anything. I just saw that the weather was getting colder, so I had to move the bonsai outside into the greenhouse to prevent it from freezing to death in the snow."

Jiang Fenghua's eyes were sharp and cold, and he said in a gentle voice, "The maid in my sister-in-law's room is really diligent. She has made preparations in advance before the snow even fell. It seems that I will also ask the maid in the palace to move all the flowers in my yard to the flower room."

Zhang Yumo didn't say anything. The flowers in Jiang Fenghua's yard had been moved away long ago at this time of year.

Qiuju was timid. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Jiang Fenghua. She was relieved when she heard this. It seemed that she had thought too much.

Jiang Fenghua had already noticed something strange in her eyes. "Your daughter is getting married soon and won't be able to take care of these flowers and plants anymore. Please leave first!"

"Yes." Qiu Ju said respectfully.

As soon as Qiuju walked to the door, Jiang Fenghua looked at Zhang Yumo deeply and said softly, "I want to go out and see if the wedding party has arrived. Sister-in-law, just cover your veil and wait patiently. Brother should be here soon." She was not sure whether everyone in Zhang Yumo's courtyard was trustworthy.

Zhang Yumo thought she was a little weird. Didn't she say she would accompany me? Why did she leave?

Qiu Ju was originally one of her dowry maids. The day before yesterday, she suddenly said that she wanted to redeem herself and return to her hometown to get married. For this purpose, she was given a dowry. As soon as she got married, Qiu Ju left the Zhang Mansion.

Today she ran to the window again to fiddle with the potted plants, but Qiu Ju was not responsible for the potted plants in her yard.

Zhang Yumo quietly walked to the window and looked out. There was no potted plant outside the window that needed care. Qiuju was clearly lying, and Fenghua also knew she was lying.

"Miss." The maid Tong'er came in, "I don't know why, the wedding procession hasn't arrived yet, and it's almost the auspicious time."

Zhang Yumo pulled Tong'er aside and whispered, "Is there anything unusual outside?"

"No, I just met Princess Heng, and she asked me to take good care of the young lady." Tong'er said, "But I just met the second lady on the road, and she walked towards the backyard."

"Second Aunt?" Zhang Yumo recalled the look Jiang Fenghua gave her when he left.
