Jiang Yin was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "If I am lucky enough to avenge Mr. Li, I will naturally do my best to help him."

Now those people are also considered Li Ji's enemies. Revenge for their own parents is the same as revenge for Li Ji.

Li Ji chuckled and said, "Miss Jiang is really kind. I can only say that those people are from Tokyo, and they are people you can't afford to offend."

As a mere businessman, who can I afford to offend?

Jiang Yin choked. Although she felt uncomfortable listening to it, she knew her own limitations.

Apart from the aristocratic families who were also merchants, she really couldn't afford to offend anyone.

She leaned forward and said seriously, "So, who is it, Mr. Li, can you tell me?"

Regardless of whether she has the ability to take revenge or not, she must know who her enemy is. Who knows, maybe one day she will be able to take revenge.

Li Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "Really want to know?"

Jiang Yin nodded vigorously: "I want to!"

"Then come closer." Li Ji hooked his finger at her, but when he raised his hand, he tore the wound, and blood seeped out of his clothes.

But he acted as if nothing had happened and didn't even make a sound.

Jiang Yin had a complicated expression, but he still stood up, squatted down in front of Li Ji, and listened to his whispers.

A light breeze blew by, and the hair by Jiang Yin's ears fluttered in the wind until it touched Li Ji's cheek, making him feel a little itchy.

He lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Yin, who was different from before. He suddenly felt that she was just a soft and sweet little girl, who could never bear the hatred of killing her husband and mother.

He calmed down and couldn't help but put his hair next to Jiang Yin's ear. Then he said softly, "She is from the royal family. Don't touch her."

He had a mocking smile on his face. Even when he was in Beijing, there were many people who wanted him dead, not to mention that he was away from home now.

"Really?" Jiang Yin raised his head suddenly, and said in disbelief, "Is the government also like this?"

She tried to keep her voice down and not let her fear spill out.

Even Li Ji's inappropriate behavior just now was ignored by her.

If the emperor really instructed the royal family to do this, then the Jiang family is really finished.

"Come back to your senses." Li Ji raised his hand and knocked on her head, saying calmly, "They even killed me, not to mention your parents."

"So, it couldn't be the government's order." Jiang Yin's eyes lit up, and then he asked in surprise, "How do you know that they are the ones who killed my parents?"

As long as it wasn't instructed by the government, the Jiang family can still be saved.

It makes sense. The emperor trusted Li Ji very much, so why would he send someone to assassinate him?

However, she had never told anyone the clues of her parents’ murder. How did Li Ji know about it?

Li Ji smiled and said, "As long as I want to know, there is nothing I don't know."

"Who is behind this?" Jiang Yin continued, "Don't worry, I'm just asking."

She certainly wouldn't risk revenge until she was absolutely sure.

However, it is okay to add trouble secretly.

She looked up at Li Ji, perhaps she could still kill someone with a borrowed knife.

However, Li Ji shook his head and said, "Now is not the time."

Telling this to Jiang Yin now would only cause him more trouble.

Jiang Yin wanted to ask something else but was interrupted by Li Ji.

"I heard that you want to go to Huangshan to buy tea?" Li Ji glanced at the person approaching and continued, "You can set off as soon as possible while they are focusing on the new tea."

Once all the Mengshan tea is produced, people's attention will be focused on these major families.

"I am worried about the tea farm." Jiang Yin pursed her lips and then looked up and said, "Mr. Li, are you willing to protect the Jiang family this time and ensure that the Jiang family's Mengshan tea can be delivered to the Tea and Horse Bureau smoothly?"

If she could, then she could set off for Huangshan with peace of mind.

"Oh my, you think I'm dead?" Xie Daoyun pulled Jiang Erniang over and said in a sly tone, "So in A Yin's heart, all of us are dead?"

He glared at Li Ji, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. This was the child of their Jiang family, how could he be kidnapped by Li Ji?

Jiang Erniang pulled Jiang Yin up, patted her hands and said, "Yes, Yin, don't worry, we are here at the tea plantation, no problem."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Ji with some displeasure. Don't think she didn't see anything, this man was interested in her own Ah Yin.

It was just that Ayin was slow and didn't react.

Li Ji retracted his hand that was about to pat Jiang Yin's hair, and touched his nose instead. He pretended to be calm and said to Jiang Yin: "Look, even without me, your Jiang family will not be in trouble."

No way, Jiang Yin thought to himself.

Didn't the Jiang family suffer the same misfortune in the previous life? It made a huge difference whether Li Ji was there or not, even though many things have changed in this life.

But that doesn't mean she doesn't trust Er Niang and Xie Daoyun. On the contrary, she trusts them and doesn't want them to get involved in this mess.

Li Ji: So?

Jiang Yin patted Jiang Erniang's hand to comfort her, then she shook her head at Li Ji and said, "This is different. As an inspector, Mr. Li is better than us merchants.

Besides, it must be Mr. Li's duty to bring the Mengshan tea into the Tea and Horse Department as promised. If you help Jiang, Jiang will owe you a favor, isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

"Wrong." Li Ji shook his finger and said, "I'm helping you. You owe me a favor."

He doesn’t want Jiang’s favor, but he wants Jiang Yin’s favor.

"Okay, I owe you a favor," Jiang Yin said without hesitation, "So, Mr. Li, are you willing to help me protect Jiang?"

It's enough for her to help. After all, she has to repay the favor owed to the Jiang family.

Li Ji nodded nonchalantly, "Yes, before you come back."

The two of them talked back and forth and made the deal right away.

After the story was told, Jiang Yin endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but pull the person aside and said, "Do you recognize Aunt Feng? She came out to look for you. I followed her here. Did you see her?"

Originally, she didn't want to say this in front of Li Ji, but she had just observed that Aunt Feng was not here.

"Looking for me?" Li Ji avoided the question of whether he knew Aunt Feng. He hesitated for a moment and said, "You can go to the prefectural governor of Chengdu to see her. She knows the prefect's father and is also an old friend of the prefect."

If she came here to save him, she would definitely look for help. The prefect was the most likely person she would look for.

"You're not going?" Jiang Yin glanced at him, looking somewhat dissatisfied, "Auntie came here for you, and you don't want to go find her?"

It was not surprising that Aunt Feng and the prefect knew her. After all, Aunt Feng was also familiar with Li Ji, the kind of familiarity that would risk their lives to save each other.

The current prefect of Fucheng is named Fan Chunren, the son of the late important official of the Song Dynasty, Fan Zhongyan.

A good father will have a good son. Fan Chunren is now also an important official in the court and is highly valued by the government.

After the uprising in Chengdu, the government temporarily transferred him here.

Jiang Yin also admired both the father and son, but unfortunately he had no chance to meet them.
