The Double

Yin Zhili was also stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "It turns out we have already met, what a coincidence. Second Miss, my name is Yin Zhili. You already know my sister’s name."

Jiang Li also smiled, "I’ve met the Princely Heir."

They were talking outside the door when Lady Lu’s voice came from inside, "Jiang Li, why don’t you come in? Have the Princely Heir and the County Princess arrived?"

"Let’s go inside to talk," Jiang Li said.

Yin Zhiqing and Yin Zhili nodded.

When they entered the Night Wind Hall, all the people in the house were surprisingly there. Both Jiang Yuanbai and Jiang Yuanping were present, and Jiang Li noticed that there were no other people behind Yin Zhili and Yin Zhiqing, meaning their father, Zhaode General Yin Zhan, had not come. This was puzzling; if Jiang Yuanbai wanted to foster good relations with the Yin Household, why didn’t Yin Zhan appear, yet sent his children to visit instead?

At one end, Madam Jiang the Elder had already started talking with the siblings Yin Zhili.

Jiang Li had originally thought that the Yin family member Ji Heng targeted must not be a good person. Even if they seemed alright on the surface, they were probably deeply scheming. She had seen many who had different outer appearances and inner realities; Shen Yurong was one, Xiao Deyin was another, and Zhou Yanbang too. However, the behavior of this brother and sister didn’t seem to be an act but something that had naturally formed over the years. Yin Zhili was gentle and polite, while Yin Zhiqing seemed to have a bit of the straightforwardness and decisiveness unique to military families, a bit blunt in speech, but still a clever girl. At least while chatting with the old madam, she didn’t say a single word that shouldn’t be said or reveal anything that shouldn’t be revealed. It was all just trivial family matters.
