Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 113 Part 3: Dongshan

The Lord did not believe it either, but before they learned of the truth, the Lord was arrested and put in jail. They also became prisoners.

Lucky….. Peng Xiao looked at Jiang Li. Jiang Li was supporting Gu Da and Gu Er. While taking care of the two people’s steps, she firmly walked forward. The mine was pitch-black, but she seemed to know which direction had lights. As long as they persevered to continue, they seemed to be able to find an exit.

Lucky….. As long as you persist to go on, you could see hope. Peng Xiao thought like this in his heart and an unlimited force seemed to abruptly pour into him. His spirits rose and he walked following forward.

……

It only took them half a stick of incense to walk out of the mine, but both Jiang Li and Ye Ming Yu felt that the time was exceptionally long.

Ye Ming Yu’s subordinates were waiting outside. Seeing them coming out, they couldn’t wait to greet them. Jiang Li gave up the carriage to Black, Gu Da and Gu Er. Their bodies were too weak, unable to walk. At first, Ye Ming Yu was still thinking, how about Jiang Li? But then he saw Jiang Li get on a horse without hesitation in a beautiful motion which made his eyes shine.

“Let’s go, uncle.” Jiang Li said, “There’s no time to lose, we should hurry to hide them first.”

Feng Yu Tang’s people would soon discover that the people inside the mines had been taken away and would surely search for the whereabouts of these people everywhere. Taking advantage of the time to bring them to a secret place before Feng Yu Tang commanded his subordinates to start searching the whole city. It would be safer like this.

Ye Ming Yu thought so, rode a horse side by side with Jiang Li and set off together. He asked Jiang Li, “How are we going to invite a physician over to take a look at them? As long as Feng Yu Tang’s people follow the physician, won’t they find them quickly? Even if they don’t find them, those people are afraid of Feng Yu Tang’s official might, how would they dare to take the initiative to help?”

“Find a physician with wife and children, take his wife and children to the secret place together and prepare all medicinal ingredients well.” Jiang Li spoke in a low voice. “There’s no other way, the circumstance is unusual, so we can only use intimidation. At the time, promise enough silver and guarantee to send them out of Tongxiang, they would surely agree.” Jiang Li thought for a while and said, “Find physician Chung from Baohetang, he is very suitable.”

Again, Ye Ming Yu thought in his heart. Jiang Li is too familiar with the affairs in Tongxiang, as if knowing Tongxiang like the back of her hand without thinking. But how is this possible? Ye Ming Yu did not ask much though there were many things he could not understand in his heart. He respected Jiang Li’s secrets.

Tsk, they, the people of the rivers and lakes, never force people to do things.

……

The matter of Jiang Li taking robbing people out of Dongshan had not reached Feng Yu Tang for the time being.

Feng Yu tang was pacing back and forth in the study room of his official residence. His beautiful concubine was on the ground, softly beating his legs. Working for Princess Yongning gave him a lot of benefits. Not just able to build such a magnificent house in Tongxiang, he could still have a room full of beautiful concubines. His study was a display, with many precious antique books inside, but he only hung out in there.

Today was actually a rare time for him to be serious, even the dainty concubine did not arouse his interest.

Soon, the voice of a person was suddenly heard. A male servant ran hurriedly from outside. Feng Yu Tang immediately sent the concubine out and let the servant in. The servant closed the door, took out a letter and sent it to Feng Yu Tang. Feng Yu Tang took the handed letter, hastily tore the letter open, read rapidly and sat paralyzed on the chair.

“Master?” The male servant asked when he saw the ugly expression of Feng Yu Tang’s face.

Feng Yu Tang was silent, but the hand holding the letter was trembling slightly. In his daze, the letter fell onto the ground. A quick glance couldn’t tell what’s inside, but one word was especially eye-catching and shocking, “kill”.

Feng Yu Tang’s heart beat very fast.

The homing pigeon carrying letters had a special path, thus Princess Yongning’s reply letter came especially fast. Feng Yu Tang knew Princess Yongning was arrogant, domineering and disregarded the law. This could be seen from this time using him to handle the Xue family’s matters. However, in the end, Xue Huai Yuan was a minor government official, in Princess Yongning’s eyes, a minor government official that could not enter her eyes was not a big thing that was worth mentioning.

Feng Yu Tang absolutely never imagined that Princess Yongning’s arrogance was not restrained even when facing the chief assistant’s family. Without hesitation, in the letter she wrote, in the event that Jiang Li investigated the Xue family’s case and was thinking of ways to reverse the verdict on Xue Huai Yuan, Feng Yu Tang must thoroughly kill her in Tongxiang and let Jiang Li die under the yellow spring!

Feng Yu Tang could not believe his eyes.

He wrote to Princess Yongning in the hope that Princess Yongning could instruct him on what to do next. However, Feng Yu Tang never thought that Princess Yongning would give this kind of solution. Killing the chief assistant’s daughter, thinking of this, Feng Yu Tang felt fear and trepidation. He did not dare!

This is no ordinary daughter, this is the Emperor’s teacher, the chief scholar, the imperial court’s chief assistant’s daughter! Jiang Yuan Bai’s disciples are all over the country. His killing his daughter was an extraordinary thing, people would be dispatched to investigate. Once they found out that it was his doing, he would not be able to protect his life!

If knowing this was the outcome, he would not have hastily written a letter to Princess Yongning. What should he do now? In the letter, Princess Yongning had directly commanded him to kill Jiang Li. After handling so many affairs for Princess Yongning, Feng Yu Tang could understand Princess Yongning’s temperament to some extent. Those who obeyed prospered while those who opposed perished. Yongning’s orders must be followed. Otherwise, he only had a dead end!

What should he do?

Feng Yu Tang that his forehead was full of sweat, flowing down drop by drop. He did not dare to even take another look at the letter on the ground, as if the black letters had turned into red talisman pressing him to death.

Moving forward is death, moving back is also death, what should he do?
