With the full moon in the sky, Jiang You, Sang Rou and Jing Yu stood on the arch bridge across the moat, looking at the hundreds of river lanterns drifting in the moat.
"This is my first time running out to put out river lanterns during the Ghost Festival." Sang Rou turned around, leaned against the guardrail of the arch bridge, and looked at Jiang You with a smile.
Jiang You held on to the guardrail and turned around to lean on it, saying: "The river lanterns on the Chinese Valentine's Day are for blessing, and the river lanterns on the Zhongyuan Festival are for salvation. In fact, I never believed in ghosts and gods before, I only believed in myself."
"Do you believe it now?" Sang Rou asked.
"I believe it, but I don't entirely believe it." Jiang You turned to the lanterns in the moat, smiled, and said in a soft voice, "Although I believe it, I still believe in myself more. Whether it's praying for blessings or salvation, it doesn't matter.
I’m just asking for a thought. In this life, you don’t have time to worry about whether ghosts and gods exist, so you might as well do something that makes you happy.”
"What I'm saying is, do something that makes you happy." Sang Rou nodded in agreement.
"When will your case be tried?" Jiang You asked about Sang Rou's case.
Sang Rou sighed: "As soon as the end of the month! Mr. Xu has tried his best, but there is no way to find evidence related to Si Zun. This case... may only go so far."
All the truth that can be found is here, but Si Zun... even if he knows that Si Zun harmed the Liu family, without evidence, there is no way to bring down Si Zun.
"Let's go to trial first. No matter what, let's clear your family's name first. As for Si Zun... God is watching, and he won't have the last laugh." Jiang You said softly.
Si Zun is now a princeling and a thorn in Murong Xiu's side. Most of the time, they don't have to deal with Si Zun personally, just let them fight each other. Interests come first, and no one will make it easy for anyone.
"That's all we can do now." Sang Rou nodded in agreement. She didn't want to spend too much effort on dealing with Si Zun. In the past, she might have been like this, but now she won't. She still wants to live well.
, and her life really should not only be about revenge.
While they were talking, Luo Jibei came over.
"Zhongyuan, why don't you go home so late today?" Luo Jibei arrived at the bridge and saw Jiang You, and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
In his eyes, Jiang You is just a child. As a child, it is best to stay behind closed doors for seven and a half months.
"Dad? Why are you here?" Jiang You hurriedly walked towards Luo Jibei.
Luo Jibei stopped and asked Jiang You to come to him, and then said, "Why are you here? I'm looking for you! It's already late, let's go home."
"Okay!" Jiang You was quite helpless.
Today, my biological father went to the palace early in the morning. I guess the emperor has been talking about a lot of things. Maybe my biological father will leave for Tianluo in the next two days.
Jing Yu stepped forward and saluted Luo Jibei, but Luo Jibei just nodded, then turned to Jiang You: "Let's go home."
Jiang You waved to Sang Rou and then followed Luo Jibei.
On the way back, Luo Jibei said as expected: "I will leave for Tianluo in three days."
"Then be careful." Jiang You reminded.
"Don't worry!" Luo Jibei paused and then said, "If you are fine, will you go to Tianluo with me?"
"Ah? I don't want it." Jiang You refused without thinking.
"..." Luo Jibei suddenly felt heartbroken, without even thinking, it must be for Su Yan.
"I want to stay in the capital. Su Yan is fighting on the front line. I want to keep an eye on other people to prevent others from harming him." Jiang You explained.
Luo Jibei felt that there was no need to explain this. The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. This precious girl was not worried that he would be in danger if he went to Tianluo. Instead, she was worried that someone would trick Su Yan. Su Yan was in the northwest, and the capital was far from the northwest.
Now, even if someone in the capital really wants to harm Su Yan, they are too far away to be realistic!
"It's up to you..." Luo Jibei accepted his fate.
Anyway, he should have accepted his fate long ago. In the eyes of his daughter, Su Yan is much more important than him!
After knowing that Luo Jibei was leaving in the next two days, Jiang You didn't go out anymore. Instead, she helped Luo Jibei pack her things. She was extremely well-behaved.
On the early morning of July 18th, Jiang You kept escorting Luo Jibei out of the city. When she could no longer see anyone, she turned back to the city.
Of course, what Luo Jibei said to her was mainly to tell her to keep a low profile and try not to conflict with others, especially to stay away from the prince and those princes, so as not to cause any trouble. Jiang You kept nodding and agreed obediently.
, she just feels a little bad, she has such a hateful physique, even if she doesn't provoke others, what if others always come to bother her?
Jiang You returned to the city, and there was nothing important to do today. Students would only start classes tomorrow.
She thought about it and went to the study room, intending to buy some pens, ink, paper, inkstones and books, so that she could reward students with better performance.
The owner of the study was already very familiar with Jiang You. When he saw Jiang You coming, he took the initiative to bring out all the good things for Jiang You to choose from.
"What kind of books does Miss Lin like? Xun often comes here to buy books."
"Really? No wonder Mr. Xun is so familiar with this place."
"Miss Lin, please come this way."
When Jiang You was comparing several kinds of rice paper, she suddenly heard the voices of a man and a woman. It happened that the man's voice was somewhat familiar. She raised her head and glanced towards the door, and sure enough, she saw Xun Zheng.
Xun Zheng accompanied a girl into the study. He behaved like a humble gentleman as always. The girl was pretty and cute, and there were two shallow pear dimples on her face when she smiled.
Jiang You knew that this was Lin Guogong's granddaughter, Lin Qier, the direct daughter of the Lin family, and Xun Zheng's fiancée.
In his previous life, Xun Zheng married Lin Qier, and his identity immediately changed. Even Murong Xiu looked at him with admiration.
In this life, Xun Zheng will probably still follow the same path as before, and will still be the Lin family's son-in-law.
Jiang You quickly looked away, but she had no intention of saying hello to Xun Zheng. Xun Zheng saw her and stopped.
"What's wrong?" Lin Qier asked suspiciously when she saw Xun Zheng suddenly stopped leaving.
Xun Zheng calmed down and smiled and said: "Miss Lin, Xun saw Miss Luo... No, now it's time to call her 'Princess Luoshen'."
"Really? Where is it?" Lin Qier seemed very interested.
Xun Zheng smiled slightly and pointed to where Jiang You was.
Jiang You ignored them, but she could still feel the strange eyes falling on her. That feeling was really unpleasant.
Lin Qier didn't seem to realize it at all. Instead, she took the initiative to walk up to Jiang You and greeted Jiang You fearlessly: "Is this Princess Luoshen? I've heard her name for so long, it's really like thunder."
Jiang You then calmly looked up, twitching the corners of her lips, and said, "Are you okay?"
