After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

The carriage stopped at the gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Jiang Ruoli was helped out of the carriage by Xiao Yujing.

When I looked up, I saw the Jiang family was already waiting outside the door.

When Mrs. Jiang saw her, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

"Li'er, you scared your mother to death!"

Jiang Ruoli quickly let go of Xiao Yujing's hand and threw herself into Madam Jiang's arms.

"Mom, I'm fine..."

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay..."

Mrs. Jiang hugged her daughter tightly in her arms, feeling a wave of fear in her heart.

Jiang Ruoli returned home safely, and everyone in the Jiang family was very excited and happy, except Duke Jiang.

Duke Jiang had a sour face and looked at Xiao Yujing with suspicion.

"Humph."

Xiao Yujing was stunned and felt a little embarrassed.

Jiang Ruoli looked at Duke Jiang inexplicably, "Daddy, what happened?"

Jiang Ci Yan coughed lightly, signaling Duke Jiang to restrain himself.

Duke Jiang reluctantly withdrew his gaze and looked at Jiang Ruoli, his face falling.

"Li'er, you really worried daddy to death!"

As he spoke, a few tears fell from his eyes.

Jiang Ruoli hurriedly wiped his tears.

"No, Daddy, why are you crying? I'm back safe and sound, right?"

The three Jiang brothers stood aside and could not bear to watch.

Jiang Ciyan took a few steps forward, came to Xiao Yujing's side, and said with a bow, "Thank you, Your Highness, for sending me back."

Before Xiao Yujing could speak, Duke Jiang raised his head and spoke angrily:

"Thank you for everything!"

"Our Li'er saved him, so shouldn't he send Li'er back?!"

Jiang Ciyan's face froze and he looked at Xiao Yujing awkwardly.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yujing was not angry. He bowed solemnly to the Jiang family.

"Xiao Yujing will always remember the great kindness of the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion."

"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Jiang Ci Yan hurriedly supported him.

No matter how much the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has done, it cannot deserve such a great gift from him!

Madam Jiang gave Duke Jiang a dissatisfied look, meaning that that was enough.

Duke Jiang coughed awkwardly, looked away and said nothing more.

Madam Jiang quickly said, "Your Highness, please come in and sit down."

"Thank you for your kindness, Madam Jiang. However, there are still many things to deal with in the palace, so I will not bother you at your house." Xiao Yujing said politely.

With so many things happening in the palace today, it would probably be busy for a while, so the Jiang family didn't stay any longer.

Xiao Yujing looked at Jiang Ruoli deeply, then turned around and got on the carriage.

After watching Xiao Yujing leave, the family surrounded Jiang Ruoli and returned to the front hall.

"Little sister, you really scared me to death!" Jiang Ci'an couldn't help but say.

Jiang Ruoli's ruthlessness in killing He Mingrong at that time frightened even him.

Jiang Ruoli smiled embarrassedly, and turned around to see Duke Jiang with a sullen face.

"Dad, what happened to you today?"

Madam Jiang sneered, "It's because he couldn't accept it when he knew you were with His Highness."

"Ah?" Jiang Ruoli was a little confused.

Duke Jiang couldn't help but accuse:

"Dad, it's not that I can't accept it. What makes me angry is... why am I the last one to know?!"

At that time in the Xuan Zheng Hall, he felt something was wrong when he saw his daughter so excited.

In a trance, he realized that his daughter might have feelings for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After returning, he told Mrs. Jiang about the matter as if he had known something huge.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Jiang said lightly:

"You just realized it? We knew it a long time ago."

Duke Jiang didn't believe it and hurried to ask other members of the Jiang family. The news he got was that everyone had known about the relationship between the two for a long time, even Fu Guo knew it.

Duke Jiang's world collapsed.

He felt extremely aggrieved and felt that his family members were hiding something from him.

"Who is hiding this from you..." Madam Jiang rolled her eyes helplessly, "Do you think you can only react after the imperial decree granting marriage is delivered to your home?"

Who can you blame for your own lack of brains?

"Madam..." Duke Jiang spoke aggrievedly.

Seeing this, the Jiang family's children quickly found excuses to leave.

"Well, Yun'er is about to wake up, I'll go back to the yard first..." Jiang Ci Yan walked out quickly.

"Brother, wait for me, I'm afraid of the dark!" Jiang Ci'an hurriedly followed.

Jiang Ci Jin took Song A Yao away in silence.

"Hey, Daddy, Mommy, I'm still a little sleepy, I'm leaving now."

Jiang Ruoli left a word and hurried out.

When he returned to his own courtyard, Fuguo rushed up to him with tears and snot.

"Miss, you are really going to scare me to death..."

Jiang Ruoli quickly comforted her.

After finally coaxing the girl into calmness, Fuguo fetched some water and helped Jiang Ruoli wash up.

Lying on the familiar bed, Jiang Ruoli felt like she had finally come back to her senses.

She stared at the bed curtains above her head in a daze.

The Jiang family, Xiao Yujing, and Xiao Yuyao all survived.

It should be successful now, right?

I just don't know when she will come back...

Thinking of this, Jiang Ruoli felt a dull pain in her heart.

She really couldn't bear to leave.

Tears welled up in her eyes and Jiang Ruoli fell asleep crying.

Five days later.

When the Dacheng army returned to the capital, the emperor was very pleased and rewarded the soldiers generously.

After this battle, Jiang Ci'an had become a mighty general of Dacheng.

Yuan Guang was promoted to a higher position and became a true general.

Because of the previous incident in Xuanzheng Hall, Jiang Ruoli had made great contributions in saving the emperor and was named the Honored Princess by the emperor.

When the imperial edict arrived at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, Jiang Ruoli was playing chess with Madam Jiang.

The Jiang family happily accepted the imperial edict and were filled with joy.

Only Jiang Ruoli's smile seemed forced.

The Jiang family has noticed these days that Jiang Ruoli is always absent-minded no matter what she does.

They really wanted to know what Li'er was thinking, but just as Jiang Ci Jin guessed, they never heard her voice again.

Seeing that she was distracted again, Madam Jiang couldn't help but speak:

"Li'er, what's wrong with you?"

Jiang Ruoli was stunned and looked at Madam Jiang.

"Mom, I'm fine."

Mrs. Jiang looked at him worriedly.

Jiang Cijin quickly came out to smooth things over, "Mom, our family has had so many happy events these days. When can you put my and Ayao's wedding on the agenda?"

Song Ayao punched him shyly.

Madam Jiang smiled again, "Why rush? Now that your second brother has made another military achievement, it's time for him and Yi Lan to settle their relationship."

"Once their marriage is completed, it will be your turn."

What Mrs. Jiang said makes sense.

According to Dacheng’s custom, it is not allowed for a younger brother to get married before his older brother. Although the Jiang family does not care about this, they still have to consider the reputation of their children.

"Yes, yes, mother is right." Jiang Ci Jin flattered.

Mrs. Jiang pretended to sigh, "Alas... you three siblings are getting married, and Yun'er is about to give birth. I will be very busy from now on..."

Jiang Ci Jin and Song A Yao were coaxing Mrs. Jiang, and Jiang Ruoli also joined in with a smile.

But my heart is extremely bitter.

Get married...?
