Jiang Ling confidently handed this random task to Zhou Jing'an in disguise. She believed that he would definitely give her a good answer.
She felt relieved, and even her steps became lighter.
But just as she was about to step onto the stone steps in front of Prince Jingnan's Mansion, she was stopped by someone behind her.
She turned around and saw Zhou Jing'an looking at her with his lips pursed.
"What's wrong?"
Why do you look so aggrieved?
After saying this, Zhou Jing'an felt even more aggrieved.
"Don't you notice how different I am today?"
He felt that Jiang Ling must still be angry with him, which was why she turned a blind eye to his changes.
Jiang Ling really didn't notice it, and only after looking carefully did she realize the difference.
She smiled and said, "You are wearing the clothes I gave you."
It was the one she gave him when she came back from the palace banquet on New Year's Eve.
The flat green base is embroidered with a few orchids with silver thread, and when he wears it, he looks tall and straight and has an outstanding temperament.
Jiang Ling took two more glances and nodded with satisfaction.
It was indeed her taste, Zhou Jingan's clothes fit him well.
After hearing what she said, Zhou Jing'an's previous grievances disappeared and turned into a smile.
He wore it specially today and even swung it in front of Wanran several times.
After all, he still felt a little jealous.
The vinegar is so mellow that the aroma still lingers even after so many days.
Jiang Ling couldn't help laughing when she saw the cloudy sky suddenly turn sunny.
"Why are you like a little puppy, needing someone to coax you?" she muttered softly.
Zhou Jing'an only heard the three words "puppy" and thought she wanted to raise one for fun, so he immediately said that he could ask someone to find a good-looking one for her.
Jiang Ling smiled and shook her head, staring at him: "One is enough, two won't do."
Zhou Jing'an didn't understand what she said. He wanted to ask her when she got one and why he had never seen one before, but he was attracted by Jiang Ling's praise the next second.
"It does fit you well, do you like it?"
Zhou Jing'an was naturally very pleased, but he was still not satisfied after hearing her praise. He said to her with a veiled intention: "The clothes Ling'er picked are very beautiful, much better than the ones I had before."
He stared at her intently, his eyes shining, making Jiang Ling look more and more like a dog wagging its tail.
She didn't expose him, and just followed his words: "Ah~Is that so? Then it seems I have to pick a few more for you."
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Jing'an's mouth corners curled up. If it really had a tail, it would have probably turned into a propeller.
Jiang Ling rubbed her fingers slightly, feeling a little itchy.
As soon as she raised her hand, Zhou Jing'an leaned down and put his cheek close to her hand.
Jiang Ling was startled, her eyebrows curved into a smile, and she reached out and pinched his cheek without any hesitation.
"Ling'er!"
A call from afar interrupted her movements. She quickly withdrew her hand, turned around, smiled at the person who came, and called out sweetly, "Brother."
Jiang Yi finished his shift and rode back home on horseback. When he saw his sister, the corners of his mouth just about to rise but suddenly fell.
This brat! He's not even married yet, and he's already arguing with his sister in front of their house! How disgraceful!
Jiang Yi responded coldly, jumped off his horse swiftly, and strode to Jiang Ling's side like a mountain.
"Brother, you're back. Are you tired from being on duty today?" Jiang Ling smiled and acted like a caring sister.
Jiang Yi raised his hand to block Zhou Jing'an's greeting, indicating that he didn't need to be polite. His hard face softened when facing Jiang Ling.
"Not tired. What's tiring about this?" He led her towards the mansion, and asked about her recent health while walking, but he seemed to have completely forgotten about his future brother-in-law behind him.
When he was about to enter the house, he turned back and politely said to send him away: "It's cold, Jing'an should go back home quickly."
Zhou Jing'an heard him call himself Jing'an, but he always felt that it was even colder than calling him Master Zhou. He glanced at Jiang Ling and bowed to him, "I will go back first. Ling'er, make sure you rest well."
Jiang Ling nodded, gave him a few instructions, and followed Jiang Yi into the mansion.
The whole family naturally gathered around her happily, asking her questions and preparing a table full of her favorite dishes. They all had dinner happily together.
Jiang Ling was not allowed to bring guards with her when she lived in the palace, so Xiaojia and the others were all left in the mansion, giving her a few days of leisure.
When the random task came out, she sent a message to Xiaojia, asking them to inquire from various sources. Today she came to ask about it.
"The people I sent out first investigated around the capital, but found no clues. Yesterday, Xiao Bing came back and said that he found some clues in Suzhou." Xiao Jia said with his head down.
Jiang Ling propped up her head and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Suzhou?"
"Yes, a few years ago in Suzhou there was indeed a doctor named Fang who was very good at treating difficult and complicated diseases. He came from a poor family, had no parents, and only a younger brother, and they depended on each other for survival."
Xiaojia continued, "But later he and his brother moved away from Suzhou, and no one knew where his neighbors went."
Jiang Ling nodded. "Well, you did a good job. Go tell Ye Song what you have found out now, and then continue to investigate around Suzhou."
Xiaojia took the order and left. Jiang Ling looked at the moon peeking out from the clouds and couldn't help but wonder how capable this Fang Juexia was. Not only did he ask Feng Yu in the book to search all the states, but even the tasks assigned by the system were related to him.
At this time, the protagonist that made Jiang Ling so curious was in Suzhou City.

Pei Yu lazily leaned on the soft couch, propped up his head and closed his eyes for a nap.
