Lan Yu was a little unwilling. She failed to help Qin Chu last time, but Qin Chu suffered a loss. The queen was very dissatisfied with her.

She also wanted to listen to the conversation between Jiang Li and Yang Jin so that she could atone for her sins in front of the queen, but she didn't expect Jiang Li to kick her out directly.

Biting her lip slightly, she wanted to fight for herself, but she was really afraid of Jiang Li.

She hesitated for a long time, and finally said, "I'll go and make tea."

Well, I can’t stay here forever. It’s okay to come over and eavesdrop on me in the name of making tea.

Jiang Li ignored her and waved her hand to let her go down.

Only Jiang Li, Yang Jin, and Lan Yin were left in the room. Yang Jin immediately put aside his previous politeness and said, "Ali, how have you been doing in the past three years in the palace?"

Yang Jin's expression was full of care. It was a complete love from an elder to a younger generation, without any trade-off between interests.

...This is something Jiang Li has never received since he was born.

She suddenly fell silent, and the countermeasure she had planned in her heart was quietly overturned after Yang Jin's first words.

Although she disdained the pursuit of family affection, when such a person really appeared in front of her, she also felt that it would be a kind of blasphemy to deal with it with tactics.

While she was silent, Yang Jin misunderstood, "Why didn't you say anything? But what kind of injustice did you suffer?"

Jiang Li came back to his senses, then smiled softly and shook his head, "No, Uncle Yang doesn't have to worry about me."

Yang Jin frowned, "You still said no. If not, why do you need to pass the news to me through someone else if you want to see me?"

Jiang Li coughed slightly, feeling that it was not kind to show off in front of him, so he decisively changed the subject and said, "By the way, who are the people who went to deliver the news to you?"

Yang Jin thought this question was a bit strange, but he still answered her, "One is named Lin Qiyuan, and the other is named Jun Song... Didn't you ask them to come? Why do you have to ask me the other way around?"

Jiang Li nodded, "I asked them to help, but because I wasn't sure who would agree, I asked a few more people. Now I have to know whose favor I owe."

Yang Jin suddenly realized, "So that's it."

He recalled for a moment and then said, "The first one to come was the man named Jun Song, the new Prime Minister of Dali Temple."

"He only conveyed that you wanted to see me. He didn't seem to know anything else. He looked a little confused."

"The Minister of Rites, Lin Qiyuan, came later. He knows more about it in detail. He also gave me a rough summary of your situation in the palace during this period."

At this point, Yang Jin smiled and said, "It seems that Juniper is a little reckless, but Lin Qiyuan is more prudent in comparison."

Jiang Li nodded and did not make any comments about the two of them. He just smiled and said, "I understand. I will definitely ask someone to send a thank you gift later."

Yang Jin was not very interested in these two people. After saying this, he couldn't help but care about Jiang Li again.

"I heard that you were beaten by the queen a few days ago. Does your face feel better?"

Jiang Li blinked, "Who said that?"

Yang Jin snorted coldly, "You can find out if you ask anyone in the palace. Do you still want to hide it from me?"

"Your Majesty, this is because I seldom come back to Beijing and bully me because there is no one in the palace. You think that as long as you coax you, I won't know anything else, right?"

Jiang Li coughed lightly, "...it makes Uncle Yang worried."

"You don't need to be so polite with me." Yang Jin sighed, "Your parents and brothers died in the battle, so I should take more care of you."

"It's a pity...the emperor left you in the palace. I have only seen you in the past three years. I am already ashamed of the general's spirit in heaven!"

As he spoke, Yang Jin's eyes became moist.

Jiang Li looked at it, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart, because she was the only one who knew that the real Jiang Li was dead.

All Yang Jin's love was actually not for her.

The two talked for a while, and inevitably the topic of her marriage came up.

"I heard that the Emperor and Queen are looking for a consort for you, you..."

Halfway through the words, Lan Yu opened the door and came in with tea.

Yang Jin swallowed his words and thought about waiting for her to leave before talking.

But Jiang Li didn't seem to have any scruples, and only said a little embarrassedly: "I don't have any high requirements, as long as the two of them like each other and can grow old together in peace."

Yang Jin nodded gently, "Yes, it's better if you like it."

"When the general was still alive, he often said that if he wanted to find a husband for Ali in the future, he must find someone he likes. As long as Ali likes him, nothing else matters."

Lan Yu poured two cups of tea slowly, but there was really no reason to stay any longer, so she had no choice but to leave.

So I came in for the last time and listened to Jiang Li's "view on mate selection."

But when the queen asked about it later, she finally got an explanation.

After Lan Yu left, Yang Jin finally asked hesitantly, "I heard that you and the fifth prince Qin Jue..."

Jiang Li didn't hide anything, he nodded openly and said, "Yes, I have a crush on him."

Such a straightforward answer made Yang Jin choke for a moment, and then he couldn't help but said helplessly, "I'm afraid there's a lot of wrongdoing in that person."

Although he is not in the capital all year round, since Jiang Li is here, he still has to pay more attention, so he is fairly clear about these things.

Jiang Li continued to nod, "It's a bit troublesome, but..."

She smiled and said, "Uncle Yang, aren't you back now? As long as you support me, my father will agree."

Yang Jin was silent for a moment, as if he had made a decision, "Okay, as long as you like it, I have no objection."

"I will try my best to help you with this matter. It just so happens that there won't be any more wars in the near future. I will stay in the capital until the end of the year."

It is also a good thing for Jiang Li that Yang Jin can stay here. She naturally welcomes him.

The two chatted for a while, and then Yang Jin said goodbye and left.

Jiang Li didn't ask Yang Jin to do anything this time, because now he only needed to go to the palace and basically solve her current dilemma.

They had just met, so she couldn't ask for too much at once, otherwise no matter how many feelings she had, they would be wasted in her ignorance.

Anyway, he also said that he would stay in the capital for a while, and if there is any use for him, he would talk about it later.

Of course, she didn't tell Yang Jin her plans. After all, what she wanted to do was rebellion, and it would be foolish to tell anyone.

It's still too far away from being accomplished now. Only by resolving the current issues first can it be real.

It was already evening when Yang Jin was sent away. Lan Yin saw that Jiang Li had already begun to yawn, and she couldn't help but said, "Princess, please go back to your room and rest for a while. I will call you when dinner is ready."

Jiang Li shook his head and said with a smile on his lips, "No, let's go to Leng Palace first."

"I went late. I was afraid that the unfed wolf cub wouldn't be able to carry it properly and would get confused again."
