After the Jiang Family moved away from Yanjing City, Jiang Li truly settled into the Duke Residence.
The attitude of Jiang Li was noted by many in Yanjing City. Over the past few months, Emperor Hongxiao dealt with previously disloyal ministers one after another and replaced them with trusted new nobility. The political landscape of the court had been completely overturned, and a new era for the empire of Northern Yan had begun.
However, just as Jiang Li had initially predicted, the death of Jih Heng in battle caused some of his old enemies to become restless. At this point, those who had been waiting to see if Jih Heng would make a surprise comeback finally felt relieved and began making moves against him.
