Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Bring People to Kill Back _1
In an unnoticed corner, a trace of oddity flashed in the eyes of the old monk, looking down.
Jiang Ning’s beauty was inherited from Lin Zizi, who was the most beautiful woman in Chang’an City twenty years ago. Was her beauty nothing out of ordinary?
Jiang Ning’s temperant was not as elegant and dignified as Lin Zizi’s, but her light and mischievous posture had its own unique allure.
Jieming quickly concealed the unusual glint in his eyes, lowered his eyelids, and said in a flat voice, “So it’s Third Young Master Jiang, what brings you here?”
Jiang Yi smiled and said, “Nothing urgent. My mother’s birthday is in a few days, so I ca to pray for my parents.”
He didn’t introduce Jiang Ning’s identity.
After all, Jiang Ning was the Princess Consort, she shouldn’t be here.
If the old monk found out, it would inevitably raise suspicion.
In this mont, Jiang Ning has already let down her veil, covering her face.
Jieming asked, “If you ca to pray, why are you here in the backyard?”
“After praying, there was still plenty of ti. I was thinking about a cluster of callias here, specifically ca to have a look, but I couldn’t find it. Perhaps I rembered the place wrongly.”
Jieming smiled and said, “It’s rare to see that Third Young Master Jiang also appreciate flowers. If that’s the case, Kong Shi, bring the pot of ‘Scratched Beauty’ over to Third Young Master Jiang.”
A young monk complied and, after a mont, brought over a pot of callias. The blossoms were pure white, with a faint pink trace streaked across the petals, a unique feature not found in ordinary blooms.
“The na of the flower is quite fitting,” Jiang Yi laughed.
“I cultivated this flower myself. If Third Young Master Jiang likes it, then feel free to take it.”
“Oh, I don’t know how to thank you enough,” said Jiang Yi, chuckling. “I will definitely donate more incense money next ti, thank you, thank you.”
“I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t keep you any longer, Third Young Master Jiang. Feel free to stay.”
“Master, at your leisure.”
Jieming nodded slightly and left with his disciples.
Jiang Yi eased a sigh of relief, whispered, “Seventh Sister, let’s get out of here first. I have a feeling he’s sure of sothing. If he decides to keep his secret by killing us, we’ll be in trouble.”
However, Jiang Ning seed very calm, “Brother, a leopard never changes its spots. Even if he kills soone today, isn’t he going to continue doing this in the future? Don’t worry, he will make the sa mistake again. All we have to do is catch him red-handed.”
Jiang Yi gave a soft sigh, “Even so, allowing this damned old monk to continue his misdeeds, who knows how many innocent won will be hard. And those two today….”
“Brother, don’t you see they’re already ruined?”
Jiang Ning said, “To bring down the Empress, we have to trip Jieming first. To trip Jieming, we need to catch him red-handed in front of the Emperor. Our goal is clear, let’s not beat around the bush, let’s go.”
The two siblings left the monastery, and after settling into the carriage to return ho, Jiang Yi said, “No wonder father loves you the most.”
“Because I’m as ruthless and harsh as father?”
“Because you both are cold-blooded and rational.” Jiang Yi frowned, “But, for our purpose, sacrificing other innocent people, whenever I think about it, I feel uncomfortable.”
“You’re too soft-hearted, just like mother.”
Jiang Ning shook her head, “If, like you said, the old monk has seen sothing unusual, those two won would be… You better not think about it.”
Jiang Yi sighed.
But Jiang Ning laughed again, “Actually, your assumption that the old monk is suspicious, is just a guess. What if he isn’t suspicious after all? We can still capture him red-handed if we go back now with backup. What do you say, would you like to take a bet on this?”
