Tea Merchants of the Song Dynasty

Ever since her parents died, Jiang Yin knew that her future would be filled with dangers and that casualties would be normal.

But when she thought about the life that was still alive the moment before and dead the next moment, her heart still ached.

But no matter what, she was just a small businessman and could not fight against the imperial power. She could only try her best to protect her family and the people around her.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, wishing that the dead could be reborn in a peaceful and prosperous world in the next life, without having to fight and kill like in this life.

Mianzhou is not far from Chengdu, and it can be reached in six hours if you ride fast. But if the road conditions are bad, it may take ten hours.

After packing up, the group continued on their journey.

Fortunately, there were no more assassinations on the rest of the journey, and the weather was surprisingly good, not only bright but also a little hot.

When they arrived at Chengdu Prefecture in one go, it was just getting dark.

Outside the Chengdu Palace, the carriage slowly stopped. Jiang Yin lifted the curtain and said to Li Ji, "I plan to go back to Chengdu Palace to stay overnight before leaving. Where is Mr. Li?"

After all, they are companions who have been through life and death together. It is reasonable for her to ask Li Ji.

Li Ji rode forward, raised his lips and said, "Me too, I plan to stay in Chengdu for one night, and we can go back to Yazhou City together tomorrow."

Jiang Yin's eyelids twitched slightly, and then he curved his eyebrows and said, "Mr. Li, just go and do your thing, don't worry about me. At least we're home now, there shouldn't be any danger."

Besides, how could she ask Li Ji to protect her at any time when Li Ji didn't owe her anything?

If there is any danger, she can only rely on herself. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth is determined by God. If she really encounters danger at home, she can only say that it is her fate.

"Just going with the flow." Li Ji said indifferently, "Besides, I can't let my aunt down."

In short, he still has a long way to go if he wants to win the beauty, and he can't take it lightly.

Jiang Yin shrugged and said, "Then we'll talk about it tomorrow."

After saying that, she said goodbye to Li Ji and went straight back to Jiang Mansion.

As for her aunt, she would go there tomorrow to talk to her about it.

As early as when he arrived at the city gate, Wang Heng went back to the mansion to inform everyone there that Jiang Yin had returned.

So, when Jiang Yin arrived, Uncle Wang was already waiting at the door to pick her up.

"Uncle Wang." Jiang Yin got off the carriage and smiled at Uncle Wang who was walking towards her. "It's been a long time since we last met. Uncle Wang, how are you?"

Looking at the familiar home and familiar relatives, she couldn't help but sigh that she felt more comfortable at home.

"Okay, everything is fine." Uncle Wang bowed and said with a smile, "My dear lady, you have worked hard on the journey. Have a good rest tonight. I will talk to you in detail tomorrow."

Wang Heng, who had returned earlier, had already roughly described what happened on the road. With assassinations and wind and rain, it was probably not a good journey.

"Okay, thank you Uncle Wang." Jiang Yin nodded, and after relaxing, the fatigue on his face was clearly visible.

Traveling long distances is hard enough, not to mention having to worry about being ambushed at any time.

It was only when she reached the door of her home that the tension in her mind finally eased.

Jiang Yin tidied up and fell asleep, while Li Ji also came to Madam Feng's residence.

"Aunt." Li Ji bowed respectfully to Mrs. Feng.

Mrs. Feng smiled and helped him up. "Good boy, you've worked hard. Come and sit down. Did you have a smooth journey?"

She looked Li Ji up and down, and seeing that Li Ji was not injured, she felt relieved.

Li Ji's lips curled slightly and said, "It went well, don't worry, aunt."

He paused and said, "It was Miss Jiang who guessed our relationship. I didn't hide it from her, but I didn't tell her in detail. I was afraid she would come to my aunt to verify it."

Anyone who suddenly knows such news would probably want to verify it.

He told his aunt about it in advance, so as not to be too passive when Jiang Yin came to find him.

"She knows?" Madam Feng was surprised for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, she knows it, and I can't hide it from her forever."

If it was Jiang Yin who had not changed his personality, then she really didn't intend to explain anything.

But Jiang Yin is obviously very different now, and she will still explain to her what needs to be explained.

Li Ji nodded, then pursed his lips, seeming to want to say something but stopped himself.

Madam Feng raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "Why, when did you become so fussy? Just say what you want to say."

She rarely saw Li Ji like this. If someone didn't know him, they would think he was some girl.

However, after a while, Li Ji said, "Aunt, I like Jiang Yin and want to marry her."

Aunt is not only his aunt, but also Jiang Yin's aunt. Although they are not blood relatives, they are very similar.

Therefore, if he wanted to marry Jiang Yin, he had to get past his aunt, and he didn't intend to hide it from her.

"What?" Madam Feng tilted her head, looking surprised. "What did you say? Say it again!"

She suspected there was something wrong with her ears as she actually heard Li Ji say that he was in love with Jiang Yin.

These two people have nothing to do with each other. If she hadn't asked Li Ji to take good care of Jiang Yin, there would be no connection between them.

Besides, the affairs of the royal family cannot be settled with a simple word of pleasure. The family background and status of the two people are several chasms apart.

Li Ji stood up and bowed respectfully to Madam Feng, and said firmly: "Aunt, I like Jiang Yin and want to marry her."

Madam Feng frowned slightly, her face looked a little unhappy: "Do you want to marry A Yin as the Crown Prince's consort? Or as a concubine?"

The Jiang family does not have the habit of polygamy. What's more, the Jiang family is headed by women, and they would not be willing for their husbands to take concubines.

She looked a little unhappy. Even if it was Li Ji, she didn't want Jiang Yin to be someone else's concubine.

Li Ji quickly explained: "Of course it's the Crown Prince's Consort, aunt, I want to marry her as my Crown Prince's Consort, my legal wife."

Even the other person might not agree, let alone a concubine. He didn't dare to even think about it.

Mrs. Feng's expression eased a little, but she still asked coldly, "Did Yin agree?"

Li Ji looked a little embarrassed, and helplessly spread his hands and said, "No, she doesn't seem to want to get too close to me. But I like her, so I have to make it clear to my aunt first."

He would be very happy if his aunt could help him.

Hearing this, Madam Feng laughed and couldn't help but teasing, "Is there anyone who is not willing to marry you? There are so many women in Tokyo who are willing to marry you, and you don't want them?"

She was not exaggerating. With Li Ji's family background, appearance and talent, he had charmed many rich girls in Tokyo.

If Li Ji had not had the intention of getting married, there would have been many more people throwing themselves at him.

It has to be her A Yin, who can't be deceived by just anyone.

Li Ji:? ? ?

Whose aunt is she?

Li Ji blinked and said innocently, "So, auntie agreed to my pursuit of Jiang Yin?"

What does the woman from Tokyo have to do with him? She is not the one he likes.

The topic came back and Mrs. Feng's face turned cold again.

After a long while, she sighed and said, "Forget it, you young people should solve your own problems. I won't interfere."

As for whether he can win the beauty, it depends on Li Ji himself.

Of course, she would also explain the pros and cons to Jiang Yin.
