"So, Ah Li, are you planning to use this thing to force Wu Youjin to show his face?"
After reading it repeatedly, Gu Qingchen finally understood the magic of the so-called "newspaper".
Jiang Li nodded and said, "When the government posts notices, they can only use the form of wanted posters with the person's name written on them, or draw a picture of Wu Youjin's appearance from twenty years ago. But if we use newspapers, we can play a clue-collecting game with everyone."
"Collecting clues?" Gu Qingchen's eyes lit up after hearing this.
"Yes, it's about collecting clues." Jiang Li elaborated on her opinion. "Many times, unsolved cases remain unsolved because time has passed and people's memories become distorted."
"Plus, Wu Youjin has been able to hide so well over the years. I suspect he may have used a disguise. Therefore, we need more people's help. We can list and analyze the clues provided one by one. In this way, we will definitely be able to find the flaws."
Jiang Li remembered that in that world, when she was a child, she liked to read the newspapers and magazines bought by her master in her spare time. There were often quizzes with prizes for solving puzzles in those magazines.
If that method is used here, perhaps more clues can be obtained.
She wanted to see how Wu Youjin could avoid the eyes of so many people in Daning.
Hearing this, Mo Qi raised his head from the newspaper and said in a daze, "Princess, what you mean is that guy might be hiding among us?"
"Yes, maybe it's hidden in our palace!"
"What?" Mo Qi was startled and drew his sword.
Jiang Li pursed her lips and laughed, "Don't be so nervous, I was just joking."
"Idiot, if Wu Youjin was hidden in the palace, you would have lost your head long ago." Mo Jiu walked into the main hall with the letter and happened to see this scene. He looked at Mo Qi sarcastically.
"You!" Mo Qi glared at him, "How dare you call me a defeated general."
Mo Jiu: “…” You can’t take a joke anymore, you even make personal attacks, what a lack of martial ethics!
Too lazy to pay attention to Mo Qi anymore, Mo Jiu stepped forward and saluted respectfully towards Gu Qingchen and Jiang Li before presenting the item in his hand, "Your Highness, this is a letter from the city camp."
Seeing Mo Jiu, Jiang Li suddenly remembered something, "Oh, Mo Jiu, the weather is getting colder. I made some Gu Yuan Yang Dan, which is very effective in treating old ailments. I'll ask Mo Qi to send some to the brothers in Mo Yun Pavilion later. You can also take some to the barracks to distribute to the brothers."
"Yes." Mo Jiu answered respectfully, then thought of the argument he had with Mo Qi a few days ago, took a half step back, knelt on one knee and bowed deeply to Jiang Li.
"What are you doing?"
Jiang Li was surprised by Mo Jiu's reaction for a moment, "We are all family, it's just some pills, no need to be so polite."
Mo Jiu said with a guilty look on his face, "I was foolish before. Please forgive me, Princess."
"Punish? How can you say that?" Jiang Li laughed, looked at Mo Qi, and asked him to help the man up.
"Okay, I know you're most protective of your prince. At first, you thought it was a loss of face for the prince to marry me, right?"
"Also, do you think your good brother Mo Qi, who is clearly one of the best talents in Mo Yun Pavilion, has no future and now follows me around all day?"
The more Jiang Li spoke, the redder Mo Jiu's face became. However, his skin color was dark, so his blushing didn't show, and his face looked dark instead. "It was my ignorance, please forgive me, Princess."
"Hmph, what did I say? The princess is a goddess from the Ninth Heaven who has come down to earth. Sooner or later you will know how powerful she is." Mo Qi pulled Mo Jiu up, then stood aside with a sword in his arms, looking proud.
You know, the person that everyone in Moyun Pavilion envies the most now is him.
He followed the princess around all day, seeing all kinds of new and interesting things. Every time he went back and told those people about his experiences, they were extremely jealous.
Thinking of this, Mo Jiu carefully folded the newspaper and stuffed it into his arms.
Tonight, he will let those boys open their eyes again. If they don't prepare good food and wine, he will not take out the newspaper!
Jiang Li was amused by Mo Qi and Mo Jiu's reactions. He felt more and more that he was leading this group of serious guards in the palace further and further astray.
"Princess, where are we going?"
After reading the letter, Gu Qingchen left the house and went to the military camp. Jiang Li also asked Bai Zhi to pack up for her and prepare to leave the house.
After picking up the newspaper and writing the visiting card by hand, Jiang Li said, "Let's go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion."
Although she has now been recognized as a member of the Jiang family, she has yet to meet with Grand Tutor Xue alone.
Firstly, she was constantly troubled by some unexpected events, and secondly, her grandfather had taken his students and disciples on a study tour some time ago, so there was no chance for them to meet alone.
Only after the carriage stopped in front of the Grand Tutor's Mansion did Jiang Li ask Bai Zhi to deliver the visiting card to the gatehouse.
Unexpectedly, after a while, Jiang Li heard the voice of Grand Tutor Xue. When she got off the carriage, the old man was already at the door.
"Greetings, Princess."
As soon as Grand Tutor Xue bent slightly, Jiang Li quickly dodged to the side and immediately helped the old Grand Tutor up, pretending to be angry and said, "Grandfather, what are you doing?"
"Oh, you little girl, you're still angry, aren't you? Grandfather has been waiting for you for a long time. You finally come to see an old man like me."
Grand Tutor Xue never cared about these nonsense and looked at Jiang Li with a big laugh.
"Grandfather, please don't blame me for sending you a visiting card at the last minute."
As he spoke, Jiang Li also took a half step back and carefully bowed to the Grand Tutor as a junior, but was stopped by Grand Tutor Xue, "Alright, alright, Grandfather was just joking with you. Come on, it's cold, go in quickly."
The Grand Tutor's mansion is not small, but Grand Tutor Xue has always been upright, so there are mostly pavilions and towers in the mansion for leisurely conversation. As for the flower ponds and waterside pavilions, they are rare, so there is a hint of loneliness in the atmosphere.
Worried that Jiang Li might be cold, Grand Tutor Xue didn't say much along the way and led her straight to the main hall. The servants quickly brought her hot tea and fruits.
After they were seated, Grand Tutor Xue finally said, "A-Li, what's the important matter that brought you here today?"
Jiang Li nodded and pulled out a porcelain bottle from her sleeve. "When I was giving Grandfather acupuncture at the Imperial Hospital, I noticed he had some spleen deficiency. Mother told me that you've been working at your desk commenting on scriptures for years, and your days and nights are reversed. So, I made some Qi-nourishing Pills for you. Just take one pill daily with water."
Even though the students often came to visit him on weekdays, the care they showed him was completely different from that from his granddaughter.
Holding the porcelain bottle, Master Xue was filled with emotion.
"When you were born, your father was fighting outside the Great Wall and never returned. It was your grandmother who stayed in the General's Mansion and accompanied your mother until she gave birth to you."
"Whether it's our Xue or Jiang family, there are more boys than girls, so your mother was spoiled by us growing up. After much difficulty, your mother gave birth to a girl, which made your grandmother so happy that she wanted to take you back to the Xue Mansion to raise you."
"So, after you disappeared that year, your grandmother couldn't bear the shock and fell ill. She kept thinking about you until she passed away. Even your mother didn't know about this." Grand Tutor Xue sighed. "If your grandmother could see you now, I wonder how happy she would be."
