Chapter 125: Laying Down the Secret Guard
After sending Ji Yao to the city gate, Chang Jiyang suddenly paused, stretched out his hand to beckon a few soldiers, and ordered: "A few of you will send the young lady back to the house safely, and the rest, follow me." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Big brother, what are you going to do here?" Ji Yao hurriedly turned around and called out to him, glanced at the sky and kindly reminded, "It's all too late, is there anything that can't be dealt with tomorrow?"
"No, you have to go now, Ji Yao, do you remember the location of the forest where Cui was going to die?" Chang Jiyang stared at Ji Yao tightly, looking at Ji Yao with a look of urgency and nervousness, Ji Yao couldn't bear it, and sighed silently, "The birch forest in the southeast corner. ”
"Let's go!"
When Chang Jiyang heard that there was no delay for half a piece, he immediately led people to get on his horse and run out of the city, and the huge sound of horses' hooves was deafening in the silent night.
Seeing this, Ji Yao's eyes swept away the dark outside of the city, but he couldn't find Liu Xun's figure, so he had to follow those soldiers back to the house at the moment.
Because of the tossing for most of the day, when she returned to the house, she was pulled by Chang Xi for a while, Ji Yao really didn't have the strength for a long time, and lay on the bed and fell asleep without waiting for washing.
This sleep was comfortable, and it wasn't until the next day that she stretched her waist and got up slowly, and when she asked Chang Xi, she was stunned to know that Chang Jiyang didn't return overnight!
The place where the accident happened was not far from the city gate, and she pointed out the direction again, how could she not go home when she reached this point? Ji Yao couldn't help but be a little worried about Chang Jiyang, so she hurriedly put on her robe and walked out.
"I haven't seen you, are you from Jinling, where does your family live, and who else is at home?"
"I ...... I don't know anything...... Don't scare me, stewards, I'm cowardly, I don't know anything......"
"Eh, what are you doing! You still want to run! This person must have a ghost!
A group of people hurriedly ran in front of Ji Yao and brought down Grandma's vegetable basket on the side of the road, pumpkins, eggplants and soybeans were scattered all over the ground, Grandma looked at this scene but didn't dare to say anything, so she had to get up with a pair of red eyes and trembling to pick up the soybeans.
Seeing this, Ji Yao rushed forward to help her grandmother pick up soybeans, and Chang Xi, who was not worried about her going out alone, also stepped forward to help clean up the mess.
"Thank you, Miss Chang, this pumpkin will be given to Miss, Grandma planted it herself, it is very fresh. Grandma said and handed the pumpkin to Ji Yao unexpectedly, Ji Yao was startled and almost fell to the ground, "No need Grandma, I don't eat pumpkin." ”
Grandma couldn't help but stuff the pumpkin into Ji Yao's arms, and said with a smile on her face: "Since General Chang came back, the gangsters here don't dare to bully Grandma, and even the beggars are a lot less, there used to be strange people everywhere here!"
"Are there a lot of strange people here? Why haven't I seen them before?" Ji Yao couldn't resist Grandma's kindness, and stuffed the pumpkin into Chang Xi's hand, Chang Xi was disgusted but didn't dare to shirk it, and had to pretend to be happy at Grandma's smiling face.
Grandma pursed her lips and said loudly: "Yes! Look here, there was originally a bamboo basket seller, but he hasn't even sold a bamboo basket for so many years, and he doesn't know what he wants to do when he looks around all day long." ”
"Oh...... In this way, it must be that his bamboo basket is not good. ”
Ji Yao was not very interested in what Grandma said, shook the beans in the bamboo basket and carefully put them back in place, clapped her hands and was about to get up, Grandma spoke again: "Ah, look at Grandma's memory, he didn't sell one, he sold several bamboo baskets to Changfu's Ah Xu." ”
"Huh?" Ji Yao looked at Grandma a little strangely, what did the people in her house do with this bamboo basket for no reason, Grandma was silent, her eyes flashed and recalled, "A bamboo basket and a silver ingot, it's always valuable, Ah Xu's stinky boy still thinks that Grandma's eyes are not good and she can't see, Grandma can see clearly!"
Ji Yao and Chang Xi glanced at each other and asked, "Did Grandma hear what Ah Xuan said when she bought the bamboo basket?"
"What do you say?" Grandma's cloudy eyes were confused, and she shook her head and said, "I don't remember, what I said is also weird, Grandma doesn't understand, I only hear His Royal Highness every time Ah Xuan comes over, His Royal Highness will say non-stop." ”
Grandma's unintentional words made Ji Yao's Lingtai shake suddenly, Your Highness, could it be that the Highness in Ah Xu's mouth is His Royal Highness Dingwang? Thinking of last night's incident, Ji Yao couldn't help but feel a little more disgusted with this His Royal Highness Dingwang, on the one hand, she was friendly with her eldest brother, but on the other hand, she tried her best to monitor herself, and even had the idea of hurting herself, which was really disgusting.
"Miss, do you think Ah Xu has something wrong with his head, why do you always call His Highness who bought bamboo baskets? Could it be that his name is His Highness......
Grandma is still babbling non-stop, but Ji Yao can't listen to half a sentence, she is not willing to let her eldest brother and Liu Xun take risks for the sake of King Ding, King Ding is too insidious, one day when he ascends to the throne, he will inevitably clear the people around him.
"Let's go, Chang Xi, let's go to Dingwangfu!"
Ji Yao turned around and walked forward, but forgot that Chang Xi was still holding a big pumpkin, and when she turned out of the avenue in a flash, Chang Xi's figure was no longer visible, and she sighed, so she didn't wait for her anymore, and walked in the direction of Dingwangfu by herself.
She had to make it clear to Princess Ding today, either to show her identity, or to take his eldest brother to give up the Dingwang Mansion and seek the world for others.
A group of officers and soldiers appeared in the market in a noisy, turning the market upside down, Ji Yao noticed that today's vigilance seems to be a lot stricter, looking at who they seem to be.
I think the person they are looking for is Zhu Shang, that day the prince and everyone gathered in the grass house, and as a result, the five ministers died tragically in the grass house, Ji Yao faintly felt that this matter was inseparable from Zhu Shang, in order to take revenge on the East Palace, why did he pull so many innocent people in?
Ji Yao couldn't understand that it was only a matter of the past few years that the prince had real power, and listening to Zhu Shang's meaning, his family had an accident a long time ago, so what does this matter have to do with the prince?
In other words, if you blow up this imperial tomb and then plant blame for the prince, why don't you blow up the East Palace and assassinate the prince, Ji Yao believes that with the strength of Zhu Shang, this is not a difficult thing, at least it is much more convenient and direct than planting blame.
After thinking about it, Ji Yao turned around and walked to another road, she wanted to ask her master's opinion, although the master had said that she didn't want to ask about the affairs of the court since a year ago, and she didn't want to see her, but no one in this world knew anything but the master.
When she was brought into the palace as a witch that day, she told the dragon vein that the master had said, and she even escaped death, which shows that the master's knowledge and insight are very accessible.
