Chapter 279: He's Coming

Ji Xingxuan brought Jingchen to Ji's house, settled him in the living room in the front yard, and said:

"You wait here, I'll go and ask my grandfather to see if there is any news of Yu Shu."

Jingchen nodded, and did not sit down, but stood at the door of the living room with his sword in his hand.

Ji Xingxuan knew that he was a Taoist and didn't have much courtesy, so he led the maid away, hurriedly went around to the back, and called the family to run to the backyard to invite Ji Huaishan.

After a short time, Ji Huaishan rushed to the front yard and met Ji Xingxuan in the corridor, and as soon as he saw her, he asked urgently, "I heard that you brought someone back?"

Ji Xingxuan said: "It is the way that the emperor is looking for."

Ji Huaishan showed surprise on his face, waved his hand and retreated, and asked in a low voice: "You went out in the afternoon to look for someone, why didn't you discuss it with me, didn't you say that you had to wait for Young Eunuch Ren to send someone to find him, why did you bring someone back?"

Ji Xingxuan first told Ji Huaishan how she brought Jingchen back, and then said her considerations, "Grandson originally just went to explore, but after seeing Daozi, he reported to his family, seeing that his attitude was already dissatisfied with my Ji family, it must be because of Yu Shu, Sun Er thought, since he can't be good, instead of letting the young eunuch know the whereabouts of Lu Daozi from Yu Shu's mouth, it is also beneficial for you to personally send people to the young eunuch in front of the young eunuch." ”

Ji Huaishan stroked his beard, his eyes flashed, and said: "That's good, it's just that you tricked him back, and you don't know how to send him to Si Tianjian, you can't force him."

"Tell him the truth, that's it" Ji Xingxuan's face remained unchanged, covering his mouth with one hand, and whispering.

Ji Huaishan nodded again and again when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It's still my granddaughter who is sensitive, let's go, go and meet this way with my grandfather."

The grandfather and grandson turned to the front hall, Jing Chen was standing at the door and looked up at the night sky and stars, when he heard the sound of footsteps, he saw an old man and a young man coming from the left porch and stopped when they were about to reach him, the old man was about to speak, but looking at him, his face suddenly changed and stared at him fiercely.

Ji Xingxuan stepped forward and hugged the old man.

"Grandfather, what's wrong with you, this son said that he saw Miss Yu today, don't you have something to ask him?"

However, Ji Huaishan ignored him, stared at Jing Chen, and said with some excitement: "Dare to ask, dare to ask, Your Excellency is the descendant of Yunhua Yizi?"

Jing Chen, who was shocked by the words of the old man in front of him, was shocked in his heart, but remembering Yu Shu's reminder, he did not respond, but frowned and said:

"You've mistaken someone. I'm here to look for someone, do you know where Yu Shu is now?"

"Impossible, you are clearly the same as on the portrait," Ji Huaishan turned his head and ordered the steward with a look of disbelief: "Go, take the list on the table in my study."

"Yes, sir."

Ji Xingxuan looked confused and said suspiciously: "Grandfather, what's wrong with you, this son is a friend of Yu Shu, how did he become a descendant of Yunhua Yizi?"

Ji Huaishan shook his head and ignored her, waved his hand at Jingchen and said, "Please don't be impatient, let the old man discern the matter, and then tell Yu Shu's whereabouts."

Jing Chen looked at the pair of ancestors and grandchildren in front of him, doubted in his heart, and nodded.

Later, the housekeeper ran back with a roll of things and took it to Ji Huaishan, and handed it to Jingchen to read: "Son, look, this is the emperor's order and posted in the city this morning."

Jingchen took it in his hand and looked at it, saw the portrait, saw the document and suddenly realized, it turned out that the royal family ordered him to find him, no wonder he had never seen the old man in front of him, but the other party recognized his identity.

Then, a family member was brought to them, Ji Huaishan pointed to Jingchen and asked, "Lai San, you said that you have seen Miss Yu and the person on this painting go in and out together, but this son is talking about."

The small-eyed thief glanced at Jingchen and nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, it's him, the little one last year, when he went to the south of the city to see his relatives, he once saw this son, and the girl Yu who now lives in our house."

When Jing Chen heard this, he seemed to understand something, and looked up at Ji Huaishan, but before he could ask, Ji Huaishan sighed, waved his hand at Jing Chen, and said:

"The old man is Ji Huaishan, the right judge of Si Tianjian, dare to ask the son, but he is a cultivator from Longhu Mountain? If so, then there is no doubt that the emperor is looking for the descendants of Yi Zi. It's not a secret, the saint is anxious to find you to return to the court, Si Tian Prison received the order, the old man because this family Ding Zi is sure to have seen you and Yu Shu go in and out together, and he can't find her, he is in a hurry, and he went to Si Tian Prison during the day, Cheng Bing's boss, thinking that Yu Shu's child should have been taken to Si Tian Jian for interrogation. ”

Jingchen was shocked, but Ji Xingxuan was surprised: "Grandfather, how can this be, didn't you say that you sent someone to find Miss Yu, and there was no news?"

Ji Huaishan sighed: "Such a big thing, how can the old man talk nonsense to a child of you," and then said to Jing Chen with a complicated expression: "If Daozi is worried about Miss Yu, and goes to Si Tianjian with the old man, without further ado, I'm afraid that if it's too late, Miss Yu will suffer from flesh and skin."

Jingchen knew Yu Shu's whereabouts, so he had no intention of thinking about anything else, worrying about her safety, but he was afraid that she would be asked about his whereabouts, so he refused to say, so he immediately made a decision and decided to go to Si Tianjian with Ji Huaishan.

"It's good that I'm from Longhu Mountain, you quickly lead the way and take me to Si Tianjian."

Hearing this, the hearts of the ancestors and grandchildren fell, and it was in line with their discussion in the back garden, neither to win the favor of Daozi, nor to let him blame their family afterwards, at least to get rid of one person, that is Ji Xingxuan.

Inside the Si Tian Prison

The candle was bright in the building, Yu Shu lay on the ground, gasping for breath, his forehead against the cold floor, cold sweat soaked the back of his clothes, all his consciousness was concentrated on the broken little finger of his left hand, his mind was blank, buzzing in his ears, but he heard a cold voice:

"I will ask you again, do you know the person in this portrait?"

"Recognize ̈." Almost subconsciously, she was about to answer, but as soon as she woke up, she changed her words, gritted her teeth and replied in a trembling voice:

"No, I don't recognize it."

Recognize your uncle

Ren Qiming's eyes narrowed, and he had no intention of admiring this woman's backbone, and was about to ask the attendant to pinch her hand bone again, to see how hard her mouth was, so he listened to the report outside the door: "My lord, the Nine Emperors and the Prince Rui and the Xue family asked to see each other, saying that they had the whereabouts of the Daozi."

Hearing this, Ren Qiming turned his head to look out of the door, his expression was a little surprised, and he glanced at Yu Shu, who was kneeling on the ground, and said:

"Invite them in."

Yu Shu was suffering from the pain of a broken finger, bursts of tinnitus, and did not hear the announcement, but she didn't know that someone came at this time, so she was lucky not to break her finger again.

Let's say that Xue Rui, Liu Tan, and Ruilin were invited in, Xue Rui first saw a figure kneeling on the ground, disheveled, and half of his body was soaked, his body stiffened, and he tried his best to resist the urge to go forward to check her situation, secretly clenched his fists, looked away, and turned to the man behind the evil case, and with Ruilin raising his hand and saluting, he said in a low voice:

"The lower official has seen the young eunuch."

Ren Qiming, the heavenly eunuch, even if he is opposite his grandfather, he has to give up a thin face, and as a junior, he must not be rude.

When Ren Qiming saw Liu Tan, he got up and raised his hand to salute: "I've seen Your Highness."

"Lord Ren is exempt."

Liu Tan and Ruilin were both temporarily pulled by Xue Rui to be rescuers, and they had already listened to Xue Rui's explanation on the way, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they knew who the person kneeling on the ground was, and they were not confused.

Ruilin immediately smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, why have you become a yamen here, do you still have to interrogate prisoners?"

Listening to the title, you will know that the little lord of the Rui family is Ren Qiming's brother-in-law, if he is not afraid of Ren Shao's cold face in this Anling City, he has to be counted as one.

Ren Qiming ignored him, but his expression softened a little, and he turned to Liu Tan and Xue Rui and said, "Your Highness and Xue Gongzi have the whereabouts of the Taoist?"

Liu Tan said: "It was my cousin who came to me, saying that there was news from my uncle, and I happened to be with Ruilin, so I came over together, or let him talk to the adults-Brother Rui?"

Yu Shu's tinnitus subsided a little, and she heard a few more voices in this building, vaguely familiar, she slowly turned her head, and saw a few more pairs of boots on the ground, looking from the bottom up, her vision gradually became clear, and the first one recognized Xue Ruilai, and was stunned on the spot.

How did he come?

Before her mind turned around, she heard Xue Rui's voice:

"Lord Ren, I met Daozi himself a month ago."

Ren Qiming's expression was straight, and he said, "Where have you seen Daozi, tell me in detail."

Xue Rui's eyes moved, turned his head to look at Yu Shu on the ground, and said, "Please let her loose first."

Ren Qiming frowned, looked at Xue Rui and then at Yu Shu, knowing that they knew each other, thinking about what else happened, he hesitated for a moment and waved his hand: "Let go of her."

The attendant was about to untie Yu Shu, but Xue Rui was one step ahead of him, stepped forward to help Yu Shu up from the ground, and went to untie her wrist behind her back.

Shocked, Xue Rui was shocked, didn't care about the annoyance in his heart, hurriedly ripped off an inner sleeve, leaned her against her chest, held her finger, felt her body tremble slightly, and whispered "endure it" in her ear.

Yu Shu seemed to know what he was going to do, leaning on him numbly, hearing his voice, he actually felt a little relieved, "um", and the next moment, she felt a tingling pain hit her mind, she gritted her teeth, trembled violently, slumped in his arms, sweat wet her eyes.

Xue Rui straightened Yu Shu's severed little finger with a tense face, took off the hairpin on his head and stuck it to her hand bones, quickly wrapped it around the cloth, and looked down at her pale face, purple lips, and sweaty face, his chest was like a slap, and he was a little bitter.

Seeing the girl he was thinking about in his heart suffering for other men again and again, this feeling was really uncomfortable.

Xue Rui raised his hand to gently wipe the sweat on Yu Shu's face, brushed away her scattered forehead hair, Yu Shu's eyelashes moved, slowly opened his eyes, met his gaze, and inadvertently read the obscurity revealed in the dark pupils, which made her lose her mind slightly.
