If it had been anyone else, even having seen Li Jing's guards before, after such a long time, and having met them only once, they would have likely failed to recognize them upon another encounter. But Jiang Li's memory was exceptional; the appearance of the man was as clear in her mind as if she had seen him yesterday. She was absolutely certain she would not mistake him.
He was a man of the Right Chancellor!
Jiang Li experienced a sudden realization, as if she had discovered a great secret. To know that Jih Heng was the Emperor Hongxiao's man, yet he was conversing in private with one of Li Jing's men—could it be that Jih Heng and the Right Chancellor had already established contact? If so, wasn't it like repairing the plank road while secretly crossing through Chen Cang? Had Jih Heng been bought by the Right Chancellor?
No, no, no, the Right Chancellor couldn't possibly buy Jih Heng, so... did Jih Heng choose the Right Chancellor, choose Prince Cheng?
Was he a rebel?!
