Chapter 1777: Secret Guard, do you want a wife or not?

The emperor, who had just ascended the throne for a year, passed away!

This Majesty was not even thirty years old and did not even have a son. It was unimaginable that he would suddenly die.

Let alone appointing a crown prince, there isn't even a decent candidate for the heir apparent. One can imagine what a mess the capital is in now.

"Fortunately, I left early." Shi Li realized it later and felt a little scared when she thought about Jiang Yu's identity.

No matter what, the military power in the hands of her cheap father is real, and he must be the object of the powerful people's scramble to curry favor with him.

Fortunately, she is already in Jiangnan, so no matter what happens in the capital, it will only worry Xu.

Shi Li had a very comfortable time staying in Jiangnan.

Old Madam Sun truly loved her and poured all her thoughts for her daughter over the years into her alone.

During this period of time, all kinds of clothes and jewelry were sent to her in large quantities, and she even opened a private warehouse to give away a lot of her dowry.

Madam Sun, her aunt, was also sensible and virtuous, and took care of Shi Li in every detail. Worried that Shi Li would miss her hometown after arriving in Jiangnan, she hired two cooks from the capital and set up a small kitchen for her.

Shi Li's life was simply like a fairy tale.

Back in the capital, several of the late emperor’s brothers were fighting to the death for the throne, but this did not concern the distant Jiangnan area, and only some news could be heard occasionally.

Madam Sun was in charge of the household affairs and was also worried about her son who stayed in the capital. She fell ill due to worry.

The old lady felt sorry for her, so she let her have a good rest and temporarily took over the management of the household for her.

This is understandable, but unexpectedly, the old lady called Shi Li to her side again.

"I was originally thinking about how to teach you, and now I have this opportunity. You can follow me and learn from me in the next few days."

Shi Li, who was confused, heard Old Madam Sun say this as soon as she entered the room.

Shi Li: ...

In fact, she didn’t really want to learn, she just wanted to be a salted fish.

"If you don't learn now, how will you gain a foothold in the Jiang family when you return?" The old lady saw through her thoughts and glared at her. "If you really don't want to, I can also find a husband for you here. Are you willing?"

Learning to be the head of the family or marrying out casually, Shi Li still knew which one to choose, and immediately came to the old lady and raised her hand to promise, "I will definitely study hard."

In the following days, Shi Li followed Madam Sun from morning till night. Madam Sun taught her everything bit by bit, using the current situation of the Sun family.

"It's not an exaggeration to say that your family is a den of dragons and tigers."

Madam Sun commented on the Jiang family without any hesitation, and then looked at her only granddaughter with pity, "But you are getting older, and I can't keep you for too long. In the future, your marriage will have to be decided by the Jiang family."

She felt sorry for Shi Li, and seeing that she had been studying hard these days, she made an excuse to let her pick out some cloth and sent Shi Li out to relax.

Shi Li did not let the old lady down and took two maids out.

The water town in the south of the Yangtze River has pleasant scenery.

Even though it is not as prosperous as the capital, it has its own unique gentleness.

Shi Li first selected the cloth and had it sent back to Sun's house, then walked back home leisurely.

When passing through a busy city, a man and a horse suddenly rushed out from the crowd and rushed straight towards her.

Shi Li felt something was wrong and quickly hid in the alley next to her.

The man on the horse was prepared and steered the horse to change direction and continue chasing into the alley.

The two maids were frightened by this sudden change and collapsed on the spot, not knowing what to do. They only saw a black shadow following them into the alley.

Shi Li was determined to save herself, but it was inevitable that a man could not outrun a horse. Seeing the man chasing into the alley, she helplessly and subconsciously shouted, "Eighteen."

The moment she finished speaking, she was lifted up by the waist and landed directly on the roof of the theater.

"Miss, I'm here."

Eighteen put her down gently and replied with these words.

The man on the horse suddenly reined in his horse, looked up and saw the two men, then he also flew into the air and drew his swords from his waist at the same time.

This is for Shi Li's life!

"be careful."

Shi Li tactfully took a step back, determined not to be a burden.

Eighteen had no time to say anything else and went forward with his bare hands.

In broad daylight, the man was not stupid enough to wear a black nightgown. He was dressed in a very ordinary outfit, but his face was covered with a layer of cloth, revealing only a pair of fierce eyes.

He had weapons in hand, and he fought Eighteen closely for a short time. But Shi Li could also see that if given more time, Eighteen would definitely be able to defeat him.

Shi Li analyzed the situation calmly and stood quietly by the side, not wanting to cause any more trouble.

But I felt something was wrong, a bad feeling.

As I frowned in confusion, I suddenly felt a gust of wind behind me.
