Chapter 068: Reporting?
"It seems that it is really fate, we are not people from the same time and space, but we still met." Jian Ning thought so in her heart, but she didn't say it.
"Can you tell me what you're going to do next? Your actions this time show that you don't have that ability at all. Now you're the only one left, do you still want to use assassination, assassination? Jian Ning said very truthfully. This is not to look down on Ruan Zijin, but to make the most objective evaluation from the standpoint of a bystander.
"It's true that I alone don't have the ability to fight against so many of his officers and soldiers, but I believe that as long as I keep an eye on him, I can always find an opportunity, and it is impossible for him to have so many people around him all the time, especially during this time when he is not in Kyoto." Ruan Zijin continued not to think much and blurted out.
"Have you ever heard a saying that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years! There is also a saying, the best relief when you die! Jian Ning suddenly changed the topic and said.
Ruan Zijin looked at Jian Ning, his eyes full of doubt. For these two sentences, I don't understand, but it's not so easy to accept. The only support she has for her life now is the hatred in her heart, and she desperately wants to kill Ai Gaoyi to avenge her hatred.
"Zijin, you are a citizen, he is an official. Since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials. Even if you succeed now and slash him, you will also be ruined, and you will have to live a life of outlaw and hiding in the future. I don't know how it would feel like for you people in the rivers and lakes to have such a day, but for me, such a day is better than death. β
"In fact, there are many ways to take revenge, and the most clever is to let your enemies be ruined and die in humiliation while being able to protect themselves." Jian Ning has lived for twenty-eight years, and she has never really hated anyone, at most she just complains and complains, but she has watched too many TV, movies and novels, and knows what is the wisest thing to do.
She may not be able to understand the pain in Ruan Zijin's heart, but she will not ignore her feelings and stupidly say anything to give up revenge.
"Zijin, although I am just a small cook, no matter how old I am, I am just a businessman with a little money, with no power or power. But if you really believe me, then listen to me this time. During this time, don't get close to Ai Gaoyi again, and stay in the Food Garden. In two months at most, Shiweiyuan will enter Beijing to participate in the Food God Competition, and then you can follow me to Beijing. I'm going to do everything I can to help you achieve that. But everything I do is for my own safety and yours as my primary goal, so it will be a long process for you to get revenge. β
Jian Ning didn't know why she would help Ruan Zijin without thinking about it, maybe because of the fate just now, maybe for something else, in short, Jian Ning said it without hesitation. Not in any purpose, just because of believing in the person in front of you.
Ruan Zijin was silent for a moment, kept his head down, as if thinking about something, and finally slowly spit out a few words: "Miss Jane, thank you for your kindness." But I need time to think about what I'm going to do next. I can promise you that until my injuries are fully recovered, I will definitely stay in the food garden and do a good job. β
"Miss, Miss Ruan, I'll take care of it, Shopkeeper Liu is looking for you." Xi'er came in with porridge and said to Jian Ning.
"Senior brother looking for me? It's so late, is there something wrong? Jian Ning was very surprised, usually after the hour, Liu Leshan would not look for himself, even if there was something, he would talk about it the next day. Now that I'm in such a hurry to find myself, there must be something urgent!
Shopkeeper Liu didn't say. Just let me tell Miss SΓΉ. Xi'er put down the end plate and said with a wink.
Xi'er knew that Liu Leshan did not come in directly to find Miss, not only for Miss's reputation, but also to avoid Miss Ruan.
"Okay, I got it. I'll leave it to you first. After Jian Ning finished speaking, she walked out.
In the backyard, Jian Ning saw Liu Leshan standing in the moonlight, and for some reason, Jian Ning felt that Liu Leshan seemed to have something on her mind.
"Senior brother?" Jian Ning called softly behind her back.
"Did you disturb Ning'er's rest?" Liu Leshan turned around and asked with a smile.
"No, Miss Ruan woke up and was about to let her eat something." Jian Ning paused, and still asked, "Is there any urgency for Senior Brother to find me at this time?" β
"Someone just came to inform me that the Prime Minister will come to dine at noon tomorrow, in the No. 1 private room." Liu Leshan briefly explained the matter.
"Isn't this what Senior Brother expected? Why does the senior brother seem to have something on his mind? Jian Ning didn't think that just to inform her that the prime minister was coming to dinner tomorrow, her senior brother would look for her at night.
"It was before, but now, the Prime Minister may not just come back for dinner." There was an unconcealable heaviness in Liu Leshan's words.
"Master Sun sent someone to send a message, as if someone had reported that Shiweiyuan was harboring a fugitive. But I don't know why the prime minister didn't send someone to search directly, but chose to come to the food garden in advance to try the dishes. β
"Someone reported it?" Jian Ning is very serious, how can anyone see it? At that time, everyone's attention was on picking up money and galloping away from the carriage, and it was impossible for anyone to notice himself and Ruan Zijin in the corner. Later, when I returned to Shiweiyuan, I also walked the trail, and I didn't meet anyone at all.
"Senior brother, did Master Sun say who reported it?"
"No, even this matter Master Sun only heard from an officer and soldier by chance, he can be a master at any time, but after all, he is also a civilian, how can he know these confidential things!" Liu Leshan's tone was full of helplessness.
"They didn't come in directly to search and arrest people, that proves that they don't have enough evidence yet! Senior brother, as long as we don't admit it, they can't do anything. Miss Ruan was wearing a face towel that day, they didn't know anything except that she was a woman, and now that she was injured, we also found an excuse, they won't have any evidence! Jian Ning's words were very firm, as if she was comforting Liu Leshan, but in fact, she was comforting herself.
"I hope so. But tomorrow, Ning'er is better to be careful. Liu Leshan can only comfort himself like this now.
"Hey, senior brother, do you think Yin Jian has been quiet these days?" Jian Ning suddenly asked with calm eyes. Since the last time Wang Hu happened, there has been almost no movement.
"I know what you suspect, but I went to investigate, that day, all day, Yin Jian was in Baiwei Building, and he had never been to the execution ground at all, even if he wanted to commit perjury and report us, it was impossible. Because after a check, you will know that what he said is not true at all, and he will not do such a wasted effort to offend the prime minister. When Liu Leshan knew that someone had reported it, he immediately checked Yin Jian, but the result disappointed him.
