Xiao Jingxi did not argue with Ren Yaoqi. The Second Young Master Xiao understood the truth deeply: no matter how smart a woman was, she could not be reasoned with in many cases. So he asked, "So what are you going to do next?"
Ren Yaoqi pursed his lips and smiled: "Guess?"
Seeing Ren Yaoqi's charming look, Xiao Jingxi couldn't help but reach out and pinch her face. Before Ren Yaoqi could react and resist, he said to divert her attention: "If I were you, I would just wait for the Han family to come knocking on my door. Anyway, the real purpose is not the wine. The Jiang family is just a guide stone. Since you are so sensible this time, they will naturally benefit in the future."
Ren Yaoqi and Xiao Jingxi were being affectionate with each other, while Jiang Qianniang and Jiang Shi and others had a conversation after the carriage left the Yanbei Palace.
As soon as the carriage turned into the street, Jiang Qianniang breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed.
Jiang was a little surprised and said, "Were you nervous just now? I saw you were very calm, so I thought..."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Qianniang smiled bitterly and shook her head without saying anything. She just stretched out her hand and shook Jiang's.
Jiang felt the palm she was holding was damp and covered with sweat. She couldn't help but smile and took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Jiang Qianniang's hand: "Do you think this can work out?"
Jiang Qianniang wiped her hands and said with a smile, "Before I came here, I was 40% sure. Now... I'm at least 70% sure."
Jiang couldn't help but asked in surprise, "So it's done?"
Jiang Qianniang thought about it, but shook her head: "There is still a 30% variable."
"Where does the variable come from?" asked Jiang.
Jiang Qianniang glanced at Jiang Shi and said slowly, "It's the Han family."
Jiang was stunned.
Jiang Qianniang sighed and smiled bitterly, "Although we came here today to ask for the young lady's help, it's really just a formality. I think the Jiang family encountered this situation because they were simply caught in the crossfire. As long as that person achieves his goal, the Jiang family's problems will naturally be solved."
Jiang recalled what Jiang Qianniang had said to her before. After a moment of silence, she said, "If that person's target is really the Han family, then wouldn't the Han family be in great danger?"
Jiang had only been married into the Han family for a short time, and her relationship with Mr. Han was not very deep. However, she was still the daughter-in-law of the Han family, and the life and death of the Han family was related to her own destiny.
Jiang Qianniang thought for a moment and comforted Jiang, "That's not necessarily true. Otherwise, we wouldn't have gone through so much trouble. I think as long as the Han family understands their position, nothing should happen. Besides, you went with me to the Yanbei Palace today, which was a statement of your own. Even if anything happens to the Han family in the future, it won't be your fault."
Jiang sighed. "I hope so. But how do you know this?"
Jiang Qianniang paused before sighing, "Actually, after my father's unsuccessful last meeting with the Gao family's patriarch, my mother and I ran into Mrs. Gao while burning incense at the temple. I approached her and chatted with her for a few words. She said something incomprehensible, and I didn't understand it at the time. Later, after returning home, I thought about it for a long time before I finally figured it out." This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
