"Moreover, grandma also heard that your father was imprisoned in the capital again." The old woman continued.

Ji Xiang couldn't help but be silent for a moment. Yes, she had already received the news that her father was imprisoned in Dali Temple again.

Although some of his subordinates would visit him from time to time, and Dali Temple Qing Yan Henian and Shaoqing Fu Shoutang also took care of him, the hard days in prison were still worrying.

"Grandma, father will definitely come out again." Jixiang said.

"Yes, it will definitely happen. Your father is a good man, and good people don't just endure hardship."

The old lady said, holding Jixiang's hand,

"People are thousands of miles away, and we are always beyond our reach. Let God bless them. However, Jixiang yourself makes grandma worried."

"Your three uncles wanted to go to Beijing to help you a while ago, but your grandfather finally stopped them, so they didn't go. I didn't want to, but in the end..."

She didn't continue, she just sighed softly.

"Aren't my three uncles at home?"

I didn't see the three uncles at the door. Ji Xiang was still a little confused, so I took this opportunity to ask.

The old lady opened her mouth to say something, but when she looked at Ji Xiang, she sighed softly.

Jiang Peipei wanted to say something, but was killed by the old lady's look. She had no choice but to lower her head and sit down next to Ji Xiang silently.

"Ignore them, tell your grandmother, what have you experienced during these days?"

Although the old lady had already known most of Jixiang's things from the news sent back by Jiang Renhe, she was still so angry that she clenched her fists tightly after hearing Jixiang personally describe the accident she encountered at sea.

"How can these people who deserve to be killed have the heart to deal with you so harshly?"

With tears in her eyes, she looked at her niece, who had grown up beside her, and her heart ached with pain.

"Since ancient times, there have been many battles in the royal family. I didn't agree with this marriage at the beginning. It was your father who promised not to go back on it, so I had to let you go to Beijing..."

The old lady lamented again, "Hey——"

"Grandma, isn't my cousin back already? Let's be happy, be happy!"

Jiang Peipei couldn't hear the old lady's lament anymore and quickly stopped her.

"My cousin is not an outsider. You should tell my cousin about my father and his family."

"Otherwise, are you going to let your cousin go to the prison to see them with her big belly?"

It was too late for the old lady to stop her, so she was so angry that she gave Jiang Peipei a slap in the face.

"Since when have you lost control of your mouth? Your cousin has just walked in, can't you let her take a breath first?!"

But Jixiang heard that his three uncles had not yet expressed their feelings.

So he asked, "Grandma, why doesn't the Suzhou governor let uncle and the others go?"

The old lady sighed, "What else can we do? Just be hostages. Since the prince has come forward, they can't lock us all. However, the two sons of the Qi family are still locked up."

Ji Xiang frowned, "Why didn't the prince tell me this?"

"She must be afraid that you will worry. Jixiang, you don't have to worry about this. Your grandpa and the others will find a way."

"What solution have you come up with?" Jixiang asked.

The old lady shook her head.

"Cousin, the government did not let him go. He was deliberately dragged away on the pretext that the governor had beaten his body. My brother and I went to look for him twice and we didn't see him at all."

"If he doesn't let him go, we might as well go to the prison and snatch him back!"

"Pepe, don't be reckless!" the old lady stopped her.

But Jiang Peipei was not convinced, "Anyway, he dared to attack our Jiang family and Qi family. He is definitely the one who belongs to the king."

"Since he is a member of King Duan, he will not be kind to us in the future."

Jixiang thought for a while, "The prince didn't mention this to me when we were in Shiheng's outer courtyard just now. He must have other plans. I'll ask the prince later."

He stood up and said, "Pepe, where is the prince?"

"I should be having tea with my grandfather in the front hall."

"Grandma, I want to go over and ask the prince first. If the prince has plans, we will listen to the prince. What do you think?"

The old lady nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, we all listen to the prince."

"This whole family was rescued by the prince. The prince will not ignore the three of them before they come out."

As he said this, he didn't forget to give Jiang Peipei another slap in the face, because he thought she couldn't keep her temper.

The three of them hurried towards the front hall.

In the front hall, Tian Muyu was actually talking to Mr. Jiang about this matter.

Seeing Mrs. Jiang, Jixiang, and Jiang Peipei coming over in a hurry, Tian Muyu hurriedly stood up and helped Jixiang.

"Why, don't you want to have a nice talk with grandma?"

"What happened to my uncle and the others? Why didn't Shi Hong let them go?" Ji Xiang asked urgently.

Tian Muyu said with relief, "Don't worry, I will handle this matter. Previously, Shi Hong was afraid that you would not treat him. Now that you have treated him, uncle and the others will surely release him soon."

"I was talking to my grandfather just now. Let's give him half a day. If he doesn't let him go in this half day, I will go to the government office to find him."

Ji Xiang was relieved and looked at Mrs. Jiang, "Grandma, uncle, they will be back."

Mrs. Jiang was relieved and bent down to salute Tian Muyu, "Thank you so much, Your Majesty."

Tian Muyu quickly stopped her, "Grandma, please don't do this. Jixiang is my princess, and I am your nephew and son-in-law. You can just treat me as your own nephew. Don't do such a big courtesy to me again."

Jixiang also said, "That's right, grandma, don't worry about those kings and ministers. He is your nephew and son-in-law at home. If you don't do well, you can just beat or scold him."

Jixiang's words can scare Mrs. Jiang to death, "Jixiang, you can't imitate those shrews..."

Seeing that the old woman was afraid that she would say the wrong thing again, Mr. Jiang hurried forward.

"Pepe, go to the kitchen and take a look at the food. Tell your mother to cook more of what your cousin likes to eat."

Jiang Peipei agreed to leave.

Mr. Jiang then pulled the old woman, "Your Majesty just told me, you don't have to worry too much about them tomorrow, just stay with Ji Xiang."

"Yes, yes, I just want to stay with my niece."

Mrs. Jiang took Ji Xiang's hand and said, "Come on, Xiang'er, grandma will take you to see your yard. Since you left, grandma has been cleaning it, waiting for you to come back to live there one day." "

Watching his grandfather and grandson leave, Mr. Jiang looked at Tian Muyu, "My lord, did you just say that the person behind letting Shi Hong control the Jiang and Qi families was Cao Yu?"
