Princess Yongning was furious when she heard the news; she had thought that Jiang Li died in Tongxiang long ago. Before, Feng Yutang mentioned that Jiang Yuanbai's daughter had come to Tongxiang to investigate the case involving the Xue family, intending to vindicate them. It was then that she ordered Feng Yutang to kill Jiang Li.
As for who Jiang Li was, even as Jiang Yuanbai's daughter, she didn't fear her in the slightest. Firstly, the Jiang Family was not as influential as it used to be, and secondly, Jiang Li was not particularly favored within the Jiang Family. Tongxiang was so remote, and who would know what happened there? Even if Feng Yutang was caught, she could silence him, and others would still not have any evidence against her.
