After seeing Jiang Ruoqi off, Jiang Ruohua went back to the house to prepare dinner, and said, "Pack some of these cakes tomorrow and send them to various places."

She quickly finished her dinner, wiped her mouth, and took out a set of clothes from under the bed. Although it was a bit old, it was not a big problem.

The foot was actually no longer a problem, but it still looked like it would take a while to recover.

"Miss has been practicing martial arts for many years, so this nightgown can still be worn." Huachan chuckled.

"Let's prepare a new one when we have time." Jiang Ruohua put on her nightgown. After some negotiations today, she finally managed to temporarily control Aunt Yuan's food and daily life. "You two should not be careless. The Third Madam gave in so easily. I'm afraid there will be big things waiting for us in the future." "Why didn't Miss mention it to Aunt Yuan?" Yin Qiu said, "Now her food, clothing, housing and transportation are under the care of Miss. It's not so easy to survive under the Third Madam." "Who is living here? It's simple?" Jiang Ruohua thought. She really didn't need to rush. "Originally, the Third Madam could have rejected me directly. I didn't think she would agree to me just by mentioning it this time. Who Can you expect that this kind of people who are in the city will be doubtful? "" Besides, Aunt Yuan has been rolling under her for so many years, and I may not be willing to believe in me. I am a person who has been played by the three ladies as the third lady. But I have to think about it. We are weak in the Grand Power Mansion. "The lady said." It is also so loyal, but in the end ... Now looking at the shy look on the two girls, Jiang Ruohua is more grateful to give her a chance to give her a chance to know the future in advance. These smiles are rare, like a treasure, and they must keep it well. Taking advantage of the night, she went to see her grandfather again, but she used to enter through the main gate, but today she climbed over the wall.

The Duke was in good spirits and seemed to be happy to see his granddaughter. The two chatted quietly for a while, and then Jiang Ruohua left.

It is not easy to seize the power of the head of the family, especially since the third wife is still an elder, so Jiang Ruohua did not intend to make a big move at the beginning. The third wife agreed to the matter of Aunt Yuan easily, and she was afraid that she was also suspicious because of the broken engagement. She could not rush to form an alliance with Aunt Yuan, otherwise she would be discovered by the third wife? Besides, Aunt Yuan is a concubine, and there are too few things she can do.

There is still a long time to go, and the third wife will not always tolerate the hidden danger of Aunt Yuan. Knowing that she will not harm Aunt Yuan, Aunt Yuan will definitely come to her on her own initiative. At present, she can't do anything, so she just takes good care of Aunt Yuan.

Besides, she has to give herself a good image to the outside world, and she can't always let outsiders think that she, Jiang Ruohua, is timid and can't do anything.

The matter of breaking the engagement should let Prince Ying and Zhao Yuexi bear more infamy.

The security guards were very lax at this point, and Jiang Ruohua climbed over the wall and slipped out of the Duke's Mansion under the cover of night.

Following her memory, she knocked on the door of a family.

This place is far away from the Duke's Mansion, and it is a small courtyard where ordinary people live.

"Who is it?"

The bolt behind the wooden door was pulled out, and the old man in the coat opened the door, still with a sleepy look on his face.

"Grandpa Gao." A female voice sounded in the dark night, "I am sorry to disturb your rest by visiting you late at night. I would like to ask you to do me a favor for our old friendship."

In the wooden box that day, there was a token with a unique pattern, cast from molten iron. The Duke spent his whole life in the military and devoted himself to the country, but no one knew that he still had such a secret in his hands.

Holding the oil lamp, the old man looked at the token carefully, and was startled. He looked at Jiang Ruohua warily and said, "Are you... the eldest lady?" She nodded and took off her veil: "Sorry to bother you late at night." "I dare not, this old servant greets the eldest lady." As he said that, the old man was about to bow to her. "Grandpa Gao, there is no need to be polite. You are someone close to me and my elder." Jiang Ruohua reached out to support him, and then said, "May I go in and talk?" Seeing Jiang Ruohua's outfit, the old man called Grandpa Gao knew that she had come out secretly. Now that it was curfew, it was naturally inappropriate to stand here and talk. Welcoming her in, the old woman's puzzled voice came from the house: "Who is it?" "It's the eldest lady." Grandpa Gao said, and there was some movement in the house. Soon, the old woman also came out wearing clothes. "Grandma Gao." Jiang Ruohua politely saluted her. "Oh, I don't deserve it!" Grandma Gao hurriedly returned the greeting, somewhat flattered, "How dare I accept this greeting from the eldest lady."

"Grandma Gao, you don't have to be polite. You are the elder. I am visiting you late at night and I am disturbing your rest." Jiang Ruohua said after sitting down, "I have something to ask you."

The old couple looked at each other, and Grandpa Gao said, "Miss, is the Duke of Guo okay? What happened?"

The elderly are the ones who have always been with the Duke of Guo, so they naturally keenly perceive something wrong.

"Grandpa is fine, in good spirits, but something did happen in the mansion. Grandpa Gao, I want to see the owner of this iron order. Grandpa asked me to find you with the order, saying that you can help me."

Grandpa Gao pondered for a moment, looking at Tie Ling who seemed to be thinking about something.

"Miss, I want to say something in advance." Grandpa Gao said, "Since the Duke has brought this out, it means that he has nothing else to give you."

In the Qi Dynasty, it was a capital crime to keep secret guards privately. The appearance of this ironclad order meant that there was no one else available in the Duke's palace. The servants who guarded the courtyard were counted and recognized as masters.

"The person you came here to see is both good and evil. He is not an easy person to get along with." Grandpa Gao still couldn't bear it. Although he had left the Duke's mansion for many years, the eldest lady was still young after all, as old as his granddaughter. , Grandpa Gao couldn't bear it, "Miss, why don't you think about it again? Now the old slave and several old servants of the former Duke are outside. If Miss needs anything, just ask me."

For a long time, this iron order is not used if possible. There is a shortage of manpower to help find them. Although the person is old, it is not a problem to do something.

But Jiang Ruohua thought for a while and declined politely: "Grandpa Gao and several other grandpas are out here controlling a share of the Jiang family's property. It would be inappropriate if I ask you to distract me again. Since grandpa has entrusted me with this iron order, There must be a reason for it. I want to believe Grandpa’s decision and I want to give it a try. If it doesn’t work, I will ask Grandpa Gao for advice on future matters.”
