Ye Wanxue's heart was shocked. She finally understood why Jiang Jilian wanted to conceal the death of Madam Cao.

She took a deep breath and said to Lu Yundi, "Madam, we can't let the truth be buried any longer. I am willing to help you solve this mystery."

A hint of determination flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes, and she nodded: "Okay, we will work together. But this matter involves great importance, so we must act with caution."

……

Lu Yundi stared at Jiang Lili with a sincere and deep look in his eyes, and said gently: "Lili, your ancestors, grandfather and great-grandfather, were all famous marquises; and your father also integrated the firmness and passion of the generals into his blood. He will definitely clear this injustice for you and seek justice for you. Right, husband?"

Jiang Jilian met Lu Yundi's expectant gaze. Although his heart was filled with helplessness and regret, he could only nod silently.

Jiang Jilian's throat rolled, and he responded in a deep voice: "Madam is right. My Jiang family is a loyal family. How can we let Li Li suffer such an unjust accusation? I will do my best to wash away the shame for her."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, and the expectation in her eyes became stronger. She turned her head and looked at Jiang Lili, only to see her biting her lips tightly, with a determined light flashing in her eyes.

"Li Li, you must remember that no matter how dangerous the road ahead is, you are not alone." Lu Yundi said softly, "Your father, mother, and everyone in your family will stand behind you and support you."

Jiang Lili's eyes welled up with tears. She held Lu Yundi's hand tightly, her voice trembling, "Mother, I know, I won't let you down."

At this time, a maid hurried in, holding a letter in her hand, and handed it to Jiang Jilian: "My Lord, this is an urgent report from the border."

Jiang Jilian took the letter, glanced at it, and his face suddenly changed. He opened the envelope, read it quickly with a sharp gaze, and then handed the letter to Lu Yundi.

Lu Yundi took the letter and read it, with a flash of shock in her eyes. She looked up at Jiang Jilian and said in a serious tone, "Husband, what's going on?"

Jiang Jilian took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The war at the border is tense. The court has mobilized elite troops from all over the country, including our Zhenxing Marquis Mansion. I'm afraid I have to set off for the border immediately."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Jiang Lili's eyes widened, tears welled up again: "Father, you can't go! Now is the time when I need you."

Lu Yundi was also worried. She held Jiang Jilian's hand and said softly, "My husband, as the Marquis of Zhenxing, you have a heavy responsibility. You can't just stand by and watch when the Western Wei border is in trouble. But, Li Li's matter..."

Jiang Jilian's eyes flashed with a trace of struggle, but he soon became firm: "Madam, don't worry, I will make proper arrangements. I will let my eldest brother take charge of the household affairs temporarily, and he will take good care of Li Li."

Jiang Lili said anxiously: "Father, I don't want anyone else to take care of me. I want you to clear my name personally."

Jiang Jilian sighed and gently stroked Jiang Lili's hair: "Lili, you have to understand that as the Marquis of Zhenxing, I must put the Western Wei first. But I will settle the war as soon as possible and come back to clear your grievances."

A trace of determination flashed across Lu Yundi's eyes. She stood up and said to Jiang Jilian, "My husband, don't worry. I will take care of Li Li myself, and wait for you to return triumphantly so that our family can be reunited."

Jiang Jilian looked at Lu Yundi affectionately, nodded, and turned to leave. Only Lu Yundi and Jiang Lili were left in the room.

Lu Yundi gently patted Jiang Lili's shoulder and said, "Lili, you have to be strong. No matter what happens, you must believe in yourself and your father."

Jiang Lili nodded, tears falling, and she hugged Lu Yundi tightly: "Mother, I will."

One day, Jiang Lili was walking in the yard when a maid came hurriedly with a letter in her hand: "Miss, this is a letter from the Marquis from the front line."

Jiang Lili took the letter and opened it impatiently. It said: "The war has been decided. I will return victorious soon. Don't worry."

Tears of joy flashed in Jiang Lili's eyes. She held the letter tightly, her heart full of anticipation.

Not long after, Jiang Jilian finally returned triumphantly. The Zhenxing Marquis's mansion was decorated with lights and filled with laughter. Jiang Lili stood at the door, watching her father approaching from a distance, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Jiang Jilian came over, hugged Jiang Lili, and said in a choked voice: "Lili, father is back."

Jiang Lili hugged Jiang Jilian tightly, tears streaming down her face: "Father, you are finally back."

At the banquet at the Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion, Jiang Lili tightly held her mother Lu Yundi's hand, her eyes revealing determination and gratitude. She looked at her father Jiang Jilian, her heart filled with joy for family reunion and expectations for the future.

"Mother, now that father is back, our family can finally be reunited." Jiang Lili's voice was firm and gentle.

Lu Yundi responded softly: "My Lord, you have worked hard."

Jiang Jilian let go of Jiang Lili, turned around and walked towards Lu Yundi, bowed deeply and respectfully. "Madam, thanks to your management at home, I can have no worries."

Lu Yundi smiled and helped Jiang Jilian up: "You are too polite, my Lord. This is my duty. However, everyone in the mansion is very happy that you are back this time."

At the banquet, Jiang Jilian sat in the main seat, while Lu Yundi and Jiang Lili sat side by side. The lights were bright, and the family members gathered together, warm and happy. Jiang Jilian's voice echoed in the hall: "Although we won this war, many warriors were sacrificed. Everyone present should cherish the peace in front of you and do your part for the prosperity of the Western Wei Dynasty."

Lu Yundi patted Jiang Jilian's hand gently and said, "My Lord, you are absolutely right. We should all do our part for the future of the Western Wei Dynasty."

In the warm atmosphere, Jiang Lili looked at her father, and beautiful memories of her childhood with him flashed in her eyes.

"Father, I remember when I was a child you taught me to ride a horse and I fell down." Jiang Lili's voice was full of nostalgia.

There was a hint of doting in Jiang Jilian's eyes, and he patted Jiang Lili's head gently.

"You were so brave and careful back then. In the blink of an eye, you have grown into a big girl."

Lu Yundi's eyes were gentle: "Yes, Li Li has been smart since she was a child, and she is the pride of our Zhenxing Marquisate."

Halfway through the banquet, Jiang Jilian suddenly mentioned a piece of news that shocked everyone.

"In this war, I learned an important piece of intelligence about the enemy. They are planning a large-scale attack, and we must prepare in advance." Jiang Jilian said in a serious tone.

Everyone's face changed and the atmosphere suddenly became solemn.

Lu Yundi said with a firm look: "My Lord, don't worry, we will do our best to defend Western Wei."

Jiang Lili's eyes flashed with worry: "Dad, you also have to pay attention to safety."

Jiang Jilian nodded, his eyes full of confidence.

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you while protecting Xi Wei."

As the banquet ended, Jiang Lili and her mother Lu Yundi returned to their room and sat in front of the window, gazing at the night sky.

"Mother, do you think we can really live a peaceful life now that father is back this time?" Jiang Lili asked softly.
