Marriage of the Di Daughter

Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 123 Part 1: Grievance Hello! My apology for missing a few updates, life has been extremely hectic as I am on a trip until the end of the month. On another note, this chapter only has 3 parts ^^

Twenty days later, Ye Ming Yu’s group of carriage and horses arrived at the capital’s gate.

Although Ye Ming Yu boasted of his extensive traveling, it had been many years since the last time he came to Yanjing. When he just arrived, the feeling of both familiarity and unfamiliarity rushed at him. It actually made this tall man show an ill at ease expression.

The people from Tongxiang had never seen this kind of situation, and everyone pointed at the bright city gate of the capital. Ping An, whose hand was pulled by Dai Yun, stared blankly at the city gate. In Tongxiang, the people guarding the city gate did not wear such formidable armors

“So this is the capital.” Butcher Zhang said cheerfully. He seemed to suddenly think of something, “That time, Master Xue’s daughter went to marry here.”

Inside the carriage, Jiang Li glanced at the already asleep Xue Huai Yuan and felt a layer of sadness.

When she got married, Xue Huai Yuan had carefully warned her repeatedly. As long as there’s a chance, Xue Zhao and him would visit her in the capital. However, Jiang Li understood, Xue Huai Yuan was busy with work. Although Tongxiang was just a small county, many small and big things popped out. It’s not so easy for Xue Zhao to look for a suitable time.

Sure enough, before Xue Huai Yuan could go to Yanjing, she and Xue Zhao had met their demise. When Xue Huai Yuan could really arrive in Yanjing, she was no longer Xue Fang Fei and Xue Huai Yuan had also lost his mind, meeting yet not knowing each other.

“Ah Li, let’s go in.” said Ye Ming Yu.

Jiang Li came out of her daze, “Okay.”

There were at least 100 people in this group of people. The young officers, upon seeing such a group of people suddenly arriving, thought that they were refugees. At once, the few guards encircled the group with a severe look and blocked the city gate while they interrogated them carefully.

Jiang Li lifted the carriage curtain and went down the carriage supported by Tong’er. She immediately walked towards the few guards and handed the Jiang family’s token. Smiling, she said, “Older brothers, I am the Jiang family’s second miss. These are all the people from Tongxiang going to Yanjing to complain and file a lawsuit.” From her sleeve, Jiang Li took out a piece of paper and handed it over. She said, “This is a transcription of the complaint. Each and everyone here has their name written in it. I will make a copy for you, so when the lawsuit is over and when everyone is going out of the city, everyone can be compared one by one, is it okay?”

The few young officers were stunned, Second miss of the Jiang family?

Isn’t this what’s rumored inside the city a few days ago? Saying the second miss of the Jiang family brought the common people from Xiangyang’s rural area to reverse the verdict of a guilty official? What? They have arrived?

Looking at the token in his hand, it was undoubtedly the Jiang family member. The young officer guarding the city restrained his curiosity and returned the token to Jiang Li and took the paper with the densely written names of the people inside. He moved his body to the side and assured the other people to open the gate. He said, “Miss Jiang second, please pass through.”

Since it was the Jiang family’s daughter, whatever happened, the Jiang family would take responsibility, so they were not afraid and respectfully withdrew to the side.

The city gate opened wide. The people saw the situation and looked at Jiang Li more reverently. A place such as Yanjing city, they were simply just country folks. Without mentioning the officers guarding the city gate, it’s normal for commoners not to pay them any attention. In a few words, Jiang Li managed to let these young officers guarding the city gate treat her this respectfully, moreover, they still let them pass through. It could be seen the power of the Jiang family in Yanjing.

Ye Ming Yu was also astonished, “Don’t say, your father’s token was still useful. I remember the time when we came to Yanjing, we still needed to be inspected quite a few times. You are actually good, such a large number of people, but were passed through.” He also did not know whether he was blabbing or sneering at the Yanjing officials who knew how to act pragmatically.

Jiang Li laughed, “Human nature.”

The group entered through the city gate like torrents.

Behind, the few young officers guarding the city gate discussed in a low voice, “They’ve entered the capital, they’ve entered the capital. The storyteller in the restaurant can have new stories. Don’t know what kind of storms Miss Jiang second will trigger this time.”

“It doesn’t seem right,” another person touched his chin, “Isn’t Miss Jiang second bringing all these people to reverse a verdict? Why is there a prison carriage at the back? Who’s sitting in that prison carriage? Did they do personal punishment?”

“Hey, don’t care so much. Official’s matter is not something that we can care about. Miss Jiang second can be said to have made an insignificant jab in a basket. The person’s father is the chief assistant, yet also does not obstruct, so we just enjoy watching the scene.”

“What you said makes sense. Looking at her situation, this time around, Yanjing really will not be calm.”

……

It was even more bustling after entering the city.

Yanjing’s streets were much wider than the ones in Tongxiang. The people and the horses filled the streets, the restaurants were magnificently decorated, performers could be seen all over the place, and there were peddlers selling tanghulu. The residents of Tongxiang’s eyes who came to Yanjing for the first time were dazzled. The older ones were slightly better; although they felt novel, they were still able to restrain themselves. However, the younger ones could not help it, they walked with amazement, nearly stumbling in their steps.

As the Tongxiang residents looked at the novelty, the people of Yanjing were also looking strangely at this group of people. Such a big group of people who clearly were not natives, but people from outside who appeared in Yanjing. No matter how they saw it, they were too conspicuous. However, the clothes of the people accompanying this group were very ordinary, it could even be said to be somewhat plain. Therefore, they were not people with powerful connections who went on a journey.

Someone recognized the bodyguards accompanying the carriage and said furtively to the person next to him, “Hey, isn’t that the bodyguard from the chief assistant’s residence?”

“Chief assistant’s residence? No one from the chief assistant’s residence has left the capital. Could it be Miss Jiang second? Wasn’t it said that she is bringing a group of villagers into the capital to reverse a verdict for a guilty official? If you think about it, this is about the time for her to arrive in Yanjing.”

“Miss Jiang second returned with residents from Tongxiang county”, this news quickly swept across the entire Yanjing. Through wide streets and small alleys, everyone learned of this news and the people who enjoyed watching the bustling scene went out of their houses.

Someone asked, “Miss Jiang second, are you going to bring this group of people to the Jiang mansion?Although the chief assistant’s mansion is huge, with so many people, afraid it won’t be enough. Moreover, will Master Chief Assistant let these people in? Even if he was benevolent, it’s possible to incur trouble ah!”

“I don’t know, in any case, if it were me, I definitely won’t do it.

“Hey, this Jiang family’s young lady is really taking things too far. Giving birth to this kind of daughter, the house is not peaceful, the house is not peaceful ah!”

In the chief assistant’s residence, Jiang Yuan Bai had just returned from court and took off his outer gown in the study. He was drinking the warm tea sent by Ji Shuran when someone informed from outside, “Master, second miss has returned!”

“What?” Jiang Yuan Bai paused in the middle of his movement to drink tea, “When?”

“Just now, the person bringing the news is now at Wan Feng Hall, telling the old madam about this matter. He said that the second miss brought hundreds of people and the streets in Yanjing were half drowned. The people watching the bustle were on the streets, all looking at the second miss.”

Jiang Yuan Bai’s face turned from red to white. He was always smooth and slick, as both an official and a person. Though he was vain, he was not fond of being in the limelight at all. It should be known that in the court, there were many staring eyes, the more they seeked fame, the more they would provoke people’s mouths. Jiang Li was so good, once she returned to the capital, she immediately made such a big wave, now afraid the entire Yanjing had paid attention to their Jiang family. If Jiang Li did something that overstep the boundary, outsiders would be able to talk about him, Jiang Yuan Bai, for a lifetime!

“I’ll go to Wan Feng Hall to take a look.” After saying this, Jiang Yuan Bai took his outer gown and walked out. Ji Shuran, who was at the side, responded, “I’ll go too.” A trace of a smile flashed on her face.

Before she made her move, Jiang Li had made her way into her own dead end. She knew as a woman that females must not get involved in court affairs. Jiang Li was just 15 years old, but managed to turn things upside down. Without talking about other things, which good family would want such a restless person to manage the household. Jiang Li had step by step shattered her possibly good marriage.

Of course, Ji Shuran was looking forward to Jiang Li making things noisier. The bigger and noisier things were, the harder and impossible it was to repair them. The best would be for Jiang Li to have to compensate for things herself.

An effortless victory, that’s the best.
