133: When you want to kill someone, you should be polite first and then use force. If you break into the study, you are cheating on me.

“Father, that Ye An definitely has a problem!”

As soon as Ye An and his group left, Li Xiaotian eagerly told his father the news.

Brother Feng, who was standing nearby, also added fuel to the fire, saying,

“Yes, Master, this Ye An refused to make a blood oath no matter what. I think there’s an 80% chance he really has a problem!”

“Moreover, he’s now mixed up with Xu Chuang. If we don’t get rid of him soon, there will be endless trouble!”

Li Dao heard this and remained silent for a moment before saying,

“But he is, after all, the Husband who lives with wifes family of the Ye Family!”

“The Ye Family and the Jiang Family have a close relationship. We should inform the Jiang Family first about this matter!”

“What if the Jiang Family doesn’t care?”

Li Xiaotian asked anxiously.

Li Dao, upon hearing this, said coldly,

“If the Jiang Family doesn’t care, then don’t blame our Li Family for being ruthless!”

“Our Li Family has been in Jianglan City for so many years; we’re not to be trifled with!”

“If we can’t do it openly, then it’s a competition of who’s more ruthless!”

“I’ll go to the Jiang Family right away to see their attitude!”

“Since we all live in Jianglan City, we should still try diplomacy first. If the Jiang Family doesn’t intervene, we’ll figure out a way to eliminate that Ye An ourselves!”

“Good, good! Father, I’ll await your good news!”

Li Xiaotian said excitedly.

Li Dao didn’t waste any time either. He hung up the communication stone and immediately set off for the Jiang Family!

...At the Jiang Family in Jianglan City.

Jiang Yu sat in her room, staring blankly at a Life Detection Stone in her hand.

The detection stone was currently emitting a faint green glow.

It seemed to be reminding her that she was pregnant!

But just then, Jiang Han’s voice came from outside the door.

“Third Sister! It’s bad, Third Sister!”

“Li Dao is here, saying he wants to accuse Ye An of robbing their Li Family’s merchant caravan!”

“He’s already headed to Father’s study!”

“What?”

Jiang Yu was startled by this and quickly got up to go out.

But then she saw the Life Detection Stone in her hand and stopped.

She then tucked the Life Detection Stone under the bedding before turning and running out...

Inside the Jiang Family’s study.

Li Dao looked at Jiang Shan, who was sitting at the desk, and said angrily,

“Brother Jiang!”

“My Li Family’s merchant caravan has been robbed repeatedly. Are you really not going to do anything about it?”

Jiang Shan, however, said calmly,

“How am I supposed to handle it?”

“The Great Yan Law states very clearly: ‘Private grudges, private grievances, do not involve others, do not interfere!’”

“If I were to overstep the law for you, and the higher-ups blame me in the future, would you, Brother Li, take responsibility for me?”

Li Dao said angrily,

“How is this a private grudge? Our Li Family and those bandits don’t even know each other!”

“They don’t know each other, yet they specifically target the Li Family?”

Jiang Shan retorted.

“I’ve advised you many times, one must be righteous. A Family should not only grow large, but its members must also act with integrity!”

“But over the years, how many people has your Li Family offended? Don’t you know in your heart?”

“Not to mention distant matters, just the Xu Family probably holds quite a grudge against you!”

Li Dao felt guilty upon hearing this and said,

“Brother Jiang, I won’t trouble you!”

“Since you said it’s a private grievance, my Li Family can resolve it ourselves!”

“But the problem is, this matter seems to be related to the Ye Family of Ye Family Pass!”

“That’s why I came to you!”

“What do you say to that?”

Jiang Shan smiled upon hearing this.

“I know Ye Changfeng’s character very well; he wouldn’t do such a thing!”

“Of course, people make mistakes, and even a horse can stumble. If you can provide conclusive evidence!”

“You can directly act against him, and I won’t interfere!”

Li Dao sneered upon hearing this.

“Does this still require evidence?”

“When his Ye Family’s Husband who lives with wifes family, Ye An, was at Ye Family Pass, my merchant caravan was robbed near Ye Family Pass!”

“These past two days, Ye An arrived in Jianglan City, and as a result, my Li Family’s merchant caravan was robbed outside Jianglan City!”

“Moreover, today, my son already saw him returning to Ye Family Pass!”

“The timing also matches the last time the merchant caravan was robbed. This clearly shows that Ye An did it!”

“You’re talking nonsense!”

As soon as Li Dao’s words fell, Jiang Yu rushed in from outside.

“I saw Ye An before he left last night!”

“He only had his two wives with him; how could he have robbed your Li Family’s merchant caravan?”

Seeing Jiang Yu enter, both Li Dao and Jiang Shan were stunned.

Li Dao said,

“What? Does Miss Jiang also have a relationship with Ye An?”

Jiang Yu said,

“What if I do? Am I wrong?”

“If your Li Family has evidence, produce it. Otherwise, why are you arbitrarily suspecting people!”

“You!”

Li Dao was speechless with anger, and Jiang Shan, seeing this, also smiled.

“Brother Li, don’t be angry. What this child says is also true!”

“One must have evidence when doing things, right?”

“And you even said that your son saw Ye An this morning, and the timing matches!”

“But if it really was Ye An who did it, wouldn’t he deliberately delay his journey a bit?”

“Who would be so foolish as to not even understand such a simple thing?”

Jiang Yu also said,

“Exactly! If it were me, I would also know to avoid that time. If it really was Ye An who did it!”

“Doesn’t he understand this principle?”

Li Dao, upon hearing this, completely gave up and nodded, saying,

“Let’s just say my Li Family was overly suspicious!”

“However, my Li Family has been able to establish itself in Jianglan City for so many years!”

“That wasn’t by relying on others’ charity!”

“Since Old Master Jiang has spoken to this extent!”

“I have nothing more to say!”

“I only hope that in the future, when my Li Family produces evidence, Old Master Jiang won’t shield the Ye Family!”

“Farewell!”

With that, Li Dao left without looking back!

Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief at this, but before she could leave,

Jiang Shan spoke up.

“You saw that Ye An last night?”

“If I’m not mistaken, this is the first time you’ve gone out for a man!”

“And today, you even burst into my study for him!”

“Girl, you haven’t fallen for this Ye An, have you?”

Jiang Yu’s pretty face immediately turned red upon hearing this, and she quickly said,

“Father, I... I didn’t!”

“Ye An and I are just friends!”

“Friends?”

Jiang Shan sighed helplessly upon hearing this.

“I actually hope you two can develop your relationship more!”

“Although I heard this Ye An is the Ye Family’s Husband who lives with wifes family, you’re not getting any younger!”

“You can’t stay single forever!”

“When your elder brother returns, he’ll also be urging you!”

“Oh, I know, I’m leaving first!”

Jiang Yu didn’t want to talk about this topic and immediately ran out.

Jiang Shan also felt helpless at this and could only sigh and continue to bury himself in his book!

However, not long after Jiang Yu left, Jiang Han walked in, supporting Liu Shi.

Jiang Shan looked up and smiled.

“Madam, why have you come?”

Liu Shi smiled and said,

“I found a treasure and wanted you to see it!”

Jiang Shan was startled upon hearing this and smiled.

“Oh? What treasure? Bring it here, let me see!”

Liu Shi didn’t waste words. She immediately opened her hand, and a green stone appeared in her palm!

“Master, how is it? Isn’t it a treasure?”

“Look at this stone, it’s emitting a green glow. It’s clearly a good thing!”

Liu Shi said excitedly.

However, Jiang Han and Jiang Shan, who were standing nearby, were both stunned when they saw the stone.

A moment later, Jiang Han said,

“This is a Life Detection Stone, right!”

“Why is my mother holding it, and it’s reacting?”

“Father! Are you going to have another little brother for us?”

Jiang Shan’s face turned green upon hearing this, and he quickly said,

“What little brother are you talking about!”

“It’s been decades since your mother and I…”

“Ah?”

Jiang Han was also confused by this. He looked at Liu Shi and then at Jiang Shan, and couldn’t help but say,

“Father! You’ve been cuckolded?”
