Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 41 Part 2: Convince
Tong’er agreed: “Precisely, precisely!”
Jiang Li broke into laughter. Indeed she could be counted as a good person, at least in her past life she was. In this life, she didn’t intend to turn into a bad person. It’s just that she probably wouldn’t be able to be like her previous self and return good for evil.
She said: “I also believe I am not a person with a ruined moral character. Therefore I plan to look for my father and chat with him.”
Tong’er was stunned and hesitated for a while before asking: “Can the young lady persuade master?”
“What do you think?” Jiang Li asked her in return.
Before Tong’er could speak, Bai Xue rushed to open her mouth and said: “This servant feels it’s possible. As long as young lady speaks nicely with master, master will definitely listen.”
Bai Xue treated people sincerely. Probably it was because all the people in Zao Hua Village had good relations with her family, thus she never knew there were many matters where one didn’t have the freedom to act in a deep residence courtyard.
“Okay.” Jiang Li laughed: “I’ll go there now.”
……
Recently, Jiang Yuan Bai’s affairs had been somewhat unfavorable.
Ever since Jiang You Yao’s birthday celebration, many things had changed. As the imperial chief assistant, there were many people staring behind him just to get a handle. Because of this, Jiang Yuan Bai had always behaved cautiously. But due to the matter happening during Jiang You Yao’s birthday rite, it made people in the end see the gap in the backyard of his Jiang family’s main branch. Similar as having a shortfall, it would often made people fix their attention on it.
Emperor Hong Xiao kept growing day by day. It was different from the baby who had formerly depended and trusted him and called him “imperial tutor”. The current monarch had become increasingly mysterious. Being close to the sovereign could be as perilous as lying with a tiger, Jiang Yuan Bai was even more restrained. In addition, recently his political enemies, the Right Minister, had repeatedly targeted him during court, causing him to be endlessly annoyed.
At this time, Jiang Li abruptly came looking for him which made Jiang Yuan Bai somewhat surprised.
When Jiang Li arrived at the study, Xiao Si at the gate was still hesitating. Only when Jiang Yuan Bai issued a word from inside the study did Xiao Si let her pass. Jiang Li nodded at Xiao Si and directly entered the door. She knew in her heart that shortly after, this Xiao Si would quickly inform those in Warm and Graceful Courtyard that she was looking for Jiang Yuan Bai.
As soon as she entered, she could smell a distinctive ink fragrance permeating the air in the study. Jiang Yuan Bai was right in the middle of practicing writing characters. On top of the white paper, half the characters of “quiet”, this letter had been written. Jiang Li also didn’t say a word and stood quietly behind Jiang Yuan Bai. She even helped Jiang Yuan Bai to grind the ink.
Jiang Yuan Bai’s movement paused slightly when he saw Jiang Li grinding the ink but his movement very quickly flowed smoothly again. His pen brushed on the paper vigorously, his stroke appeared sharp and clear, falling on the paper smoothly and sleekly, hiding a mystery.
Seeing the written character was as if seeing the person. Jiang Li saw Jiang Yuan Bai’s written character and right away knew that Jiang Yuan Bai really wasn’t what the court said as having an ordinary ability, entirely leaning on a stroke of luck to succeed as the imperial chief assistant. This person’s mind was extremely fine, he was well aware that he was first, yet he would forever name himself as second.
While letting the first person be the target, he himself would support till the end.
Jiang Yuan Bai finally brushed his last stroke and put his brush aside. Looking at the paper, a “quiet” character flowed smoothly, extremely beautiful.
A compliment was in order, yet Jiang Li didn’t say a word. Also didn’t know whether it was because she didn’t understand. Jiang Yuan Bai turned around and looked at Jiang Li. Not waiting for his inquiry, Jiang Li immediately took the initiative to speak.
Jiang Li spoke: “Father, I do not wish to invite a teacher to teach me at home. I want to attend Ming Yi Hall.”
Jiang Yuan Bai frowned: “What did you say?”
“I want to attend Ming Yi Hall.” Jiang Li’s tone was constant as she repeated her sentence.
