On October 23, President Feng Changyuan died of illness at the Presidential Palace in the capital.

The next morning, Yao Ji took a bus to school, and pedestrians on the street were already talking about this.

The newspaper printed this news on the front page headlines in huge bold font. In fact, Feng Changyuan Lingering had been sick for half a year. This matter was already expected, but Yao Ji still felt that the atmosphere in Jinling City was obviously different.

This was not surprising at first. It was the death of a head of state. Moreover, the current situation is unstable now. I don’t know how many more storms will be caused by Feng Changyuan’s death. The people’s hearts are slightly unstable, which is a matter of course, but she felt something was wrong.

There were troops in the city to adjust defense. That day she went home after school and saw military trucks pulling full of soldiers. The bayonets on the rifle were shining sharply under the sun.

She hurried home, grabbed Lao Li in the gatehouse and asked: Has the coach's mansion sent someone to deliver things today?

Originally, Li Zheng would have sent people to send some things to the Kong family from time to time, most of which were supplements, clothes, or small toys from the West. Later, he expressed his feelings with Yao Ji, and the servants from the Shuai Mansion came more diligently.

However, the answer Yao Ji got was disappointed. For four or five days, the general's mansion did not send servants to the door again.

She always felt uneasy, and she wondered if she was thinking too much. It was common for the military to adjust defense. Judging from the calmness of Jinling City, there was no sign of a major event going on.

But she couldn't let go and could not tell her family that she was worried about Li Zheng, so she found a reason to visit Guanfu. Li Yuan heard her say: The countryside farm sent several carts of persimmons over. I think although this thing is not a rare thing, it is considered to be a supportive person, so she gave some to her elder sister with her.

Li Yuan accepted it happily and asked her with a smile: Did you just give it to me here?Have you sent it to the General's Mansion?

Yao Ji smiled and said: Of course, there is one, but I heard that my brother-in-law was in a camp outside the city and did not bother me.

This news naturally reached Li Zheng's ears. The next day at school, she saw Yu Cheng. Yu Cheng came on the order of Li Zheng and asked her kindly: The third young master sent me to ask the lady, but what do you want to tell him?

Yao Ji wanted to ask him if the death of the president had any impact on the Huai Army, but when the words came to his mouth, they turned into a simple sentence: Brother-in-law, is he... okay?

Yu Cheng is such a person. Although he is just Li Zheng's garrison leader, he has been following him for many years, and his cleverness in observing his expression and comprehension is the most amazing thing. He smiled and said when he heard this: Miss, don't worry, everything is under the control of the third young master.

After hearing what he said, Yao Ji felt a little relieved. After returning home, she heard that Zhou Mansion hung up the phone and Zhou Xu'an invited her out for tea on Sunday.

I don’t know what Li Zheng said to Mr. Kong. After he visited his house before, Mr. Kong stopped trying to match Yao Ji and Zhou Xu'an together. The old man had always been irresistible about this. Yao Ji breathed a sigh of relief and did not stop interacting with Zhou Xu'an.

After all, the two families were originally close friends, and Zhou Xu'an was quite a good person and was like-minded with her. She was a good friend.

The two later met several times at the Nanyuan Club event and went out to play with people they knew.

This time Zhou Xu'an invited each other, Yao Ji couldn't help but feel strange.

The work in the city hall is not leisurely, especially now that it is another delicate moment, Zhou Xu'an should be very busy.

Besides, he was a proper person, and after the Kong family did not file a marriage contract, he was very gentlemanly and no longer went out alone with Yao Ji.

She thought Zhou Xuan might have something to do, so she agreed and knew, so she planned to go to the appointment Sunday.

Just before that day, a big news suddenly broke out in the public, and news came out from the capital, saying that Feng Changyuan did not die of illness on the 23rd, but had passed away for three days. Wu Yongping, a warlord stationed in the capital, secretly ordered the Presidential Palace to keep the funeral secretly, and it was not until three days later that the whole country was powered on.

This is a shocking moment. Everyone knows that Wu Yongping is a strong contender for the next president. Three days is enough for him to make a move.

Yao Ji suddenly understood where the uneasy feeling came from. I'm afraid Li Zheng had already known about this, so the Huai Army had a large number of soldiers to adjust defense. Could it be... She didn't want to think about that possibility. Although she was in a chaotic world, who would really have that day?

Zhou Xu'an poked the window paper straightforwardly: It might be a war. He sat opposite Yao Ji, with a serious expression. The news was accurate and it would not affect Jinling for a while, but I thought it would always be good to make some preparations in advance.

Yao Ji hurriedly thanked him and asked again: Your family in the capital is fine.

Zhou Xu'an nodded: You know that we have a little foundation. Even if we really fight, we will not be affected too much.This time he invited Yao Ji out just to inform the news. After saying that, the two of them fell silent for a moment.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Yao Ji was about to find some relaxed topics to talk about. Zhou Xu'an suddenly said, Miss Kong, what do you think of me...?

Yao Ji couldn't help but be stunned. Zhou Xu'an looked at her seriously. Such a tone and expression would never be able to be fooled by jokes. She thought about it and solemnly replied: I'll treat you as a friend.

Friend... After a while, Zhou Xu'an smiled. He seemed to be lost, and as if he was relieved. Finally, he nodded. I also treated you as a friend, and then he stood up. I took the time to come. I was busy with things during this period and had to go back to work overtime.

Yao Ji hurriedly stood up and saw him off. When he walked to the door, he suddenly turned around: There is something I hesitated for a long time, but decided to tell you that this is a rumor I heard, and it is true or false... it cannot be guaranteed.

What's up?Yao Ji subconsciously tightened her clutch.

The engagement between your elder sister and Li Shaoshuai was said to be decided by Li Dashuai to repay Mr. Kong's kindness back then.In fact, this is not the case. The Li family fell in love with the Kong family's reputation in the world and decided on this engagement.Marshal Li is determined to win the position of president. This time, because of his engagement with your family, Li Zuo has a greater chance of winning than Wu Yongping, so... He paused. Yao Ji didn't know if it was his own illusion. He glanced at her. At present, Li Zheng would never terminate the engagement with your elder sister.
