After Li Shiyue saw Jiang Huijun enter the side hall, she quickly tore open the envelope in her hand. She took out only two sheets of letter paper and started reading.

Feeling anxious, she quickly read through both sheets of letter paper.

After having a general idea in his mind, Li Shiyue then read the two pages of paper carefully from beginning to end in his mind.

It was only two pages long, but from the handwriting we could tell that Yan Jiuniang must have been angry and anxious when she was writing the letter. The handwriting was a bit sloppy and the strokes were very forceful.

In fact, what was written in the letter could be summed up in just one sentence: Prince Zhenbei wants to choose a husband for Yan Jiuniang.

Moreover, the Zhenbei King already had a candidate. According to what Yan Jiuniang wrote in the letter, one of them was Gao Rong'an, the second son of the eldest branch of the Gao family, a wealthy family in Andong with foreign ancestry;

But Yan Jiuniang also wrote in the letter: "Gao Rongan is nine years older than me. If I marry him, I will be his second stepwife.

You don’t even have to give birth to a child, you can just go there and become a mother!”

The second candidate is said to be a descendant of the Sun family in Guanzhong, a family from Guanlong, but the specific candidate has not yet been decided.

But Guanzhong is so far away, how can it be separated from Anton by just the sea?

In addition to the sea, there is also thousands of miles of land between them.

To quote Yan Jiuniang's words in the letter: "You don't even need to wait for me to get married. You'll tire me to death on the way to the wedding!"

Moreover, the Sun family and Yan Jiuniang have not yet decided on their candidate for marriage. Who knows if the young man from the Sun family will be worse than the one from the Gao family?
In short, Yan Jiuniang did not agree at all with the marriage chosen for her by her father, the King of Zhenbei.

The King of Zhenbei was just treating Yan Jiuniang as an object, using her as collateral to pay for what he wanted.

But even though Yan Jiuniang's mother's family could protect Yan's mother in the past, the Yan family has declined a lot in the past ten years, while the King of Zhenbei is in his heyday. Now the Yan family can no longer protect Yan Jiuniang.

Otherwise, Yan Jiuniang's surname is Yan, and the King of Zhenbei's surname is Liu. How can a man surnamed Liu control the marriage of a man surnamed Yan?

Li Shiyue looked at the last sentence on the letter, Yan Jiuniang's: "I asked my sister-in-law's family, the Jiang family, to send you a letter on a small cargo ship. Now, I really don't know what to do.
I don't want to be bossed around by him!
He deceived my mother back then, and now he just wants to use me and others to exchange for what he wants.

Where is the slightest bit of father-daughter affection he has for me?
He didn't even let me go back to Andong to see my mother. Instead, he sent people to trap me and wanted me to wait for marriage in this mansion in Dongmu!
October, I hate him!

I hate him so much! "

Li Shiyue looked at the ink that had seeped a little at the end of the letter. She knew that Yan Jiuniang must have shed tears when she wrote this.

After refolding the letter and putting it back into the envelope, Li Shiyue stood up and walked into the side hall, where he made eye contact with Jiang Huijun who was sitting on the low couch.

"October, come, come and sit down."

After Li Shiyue came over, she also sat down on the low couch. She thanked Jiang Huijun for pushing the teacup over to her, took a sip, and it tasted good. It must be a good tea.

However, although Li Shiyue could tell that this was good tea, he could not explain why it was good tea.

She looked at the tea in the cup, thinking about Yan Jiuniang and what she said in the letter.

"October?"

Li Shiyue raised his head and looked at Jiang Huijun opposite him. Jiang Huijun put down the teacup and sighed first.

"Alas," Jiang Huijun smiled awkwardly at Li Shiyue, "Nineth Mother also wrote letters to me and her elder brother. These letters were delivered to me non-stop seven days ago when my mother's family's cargo ship arrived at Sanshan Port.

I took the letter and immediately sent someone to the garrison to look for the general, but the general was busy with military duties and did not return, but he did write me a message.

Having said that, Jiang Huijun picked up a note she had prepared in advance from the side of the couch and handed it to Li Shiyue.

“I am on military duty and cannot return home;
The matter of Jiu Niang can be dealt with secretly."

When Li Shiyue saw the words "secretly crossing Chencang", she had some guesses and ideas in her mind, considering that Jiang Huijun insisted on keeping her for dinner and told her these things today. When she looked up, Jiang Huijun only looked at the expression on her face and understood that Li Shiyue had guessed it.

"You and Jiu Niang have similar personalities and are close friends. Apart from writing letters to my wife and me, she only wrote to you at this time.

The general meant to secretly send someone to bring Jiu Niang out of Dongmu, but once she was brought out, it would be very difficult to completely avoid the search of the palace.

And Liujiatun, where you are in October, is not close to the provincial capital, but not too far away either. Moreover, it is located at the foot of the Dahei Mountain, and there will be trade there after autumn.

It is easier to hide your tracks when there are more people.

Therefore, the general wanted to send Jiu Niang to hide with you for a while. Without Jiu Niang, the marriage would naturally be over.

When the time comes, we will bring Jiu Niang back.

October, would you like to

Li Shiyue answered directly: "Okay!

Madam, please give me a heads-up in advance when the time comes.

We will open the shop on Shuyuan Street soon. If Madam has any news, please pass the message to the paper shop and I will go to the dock to pick up Jiu Niang immediately!"

Jiang Huijun knew that Li Shiyue would definitely agree in the end, but she didn't expect Li Shiyue to agree so readily!

Li Shiyue saw the look on Jiang Huijun's face and understood her doubts, "Madam, it's not easy for women in this world.

Even though Jiu Niang is the daughter of a royal family, she still has to use her marriage to secure the interests of her man.

Thanks to her boat, people in our village were able to come to Andong and live in peace today.

Even if this is not taken into account, I have known her for a long time, and we have a friendship, so I will help her if I can!"

After agreeing with Jiang Huijun on how to notify her, Li Shiyue was safely escorted out of the general's residence. She rode in a carriage, and there were two boxes of gifts from Jiang Huijun in the back of the carriage.

Sitting in the carriage, Li Shiyue lifted the curtain on the window and looked at the bustling streets of the city, but in his heart he was thinking about what to do if he took Yan Jiuniang to Liujiatun in the future.

The reason why she agreed to Jiang Huijun's words was, first of all, she was really angry and distressed about Yan Jiuniang being forced to marry, and she wanted to help Yan Jiuniang, a friend who had helped her before and with whom she could chat very well;
Secondly, it’s for profit.

It is obvious that Yan Jiuniang and Liu Tan have a good relationship and there is a true brother-sister relationship between them.

However, Liu Tan is currently the general of Andong. He cannot openly have conflicts with the King of Zhenbei. And judging from the news about the sale of Xingsheng Tower before, it is not easy for Liu Tan to sit in the position of general.

Then, by helping Yan Jiuniang, she can continue to maintain a good relationship with Liu Tan.

This is what Li Shiyue needs!

She needed to maintain a good relationship with the general of the Black Armor Army in order to intimidate the old Li clan forces headed by Li Youfu and his eighth uncle, and to make Li Shiyang favor her side for the sake of power and status.

She had said before that she would kill anyone who dared to cut off her eighth uncle's fingers, but even though she said that, she could really kill someone, but it was not necessary.

She is not a murderer. She just wants to live well in this world as Li Shiyue.

Thirdly, Li Shiyue has set his sights on Yan Jiuniang's business ability.

No matter whether Yan Jiuniang can stay in Liujiatun for a few days or a few months, you can ask Yan Jiuniang to run the paper mill and the shop prepared for trade well.

In a word, Li Shiyue's sincerity was mixed with interests, so he directly agreed to this matter.
