After Ji Ning went back, he didn't need to do anything, and there was news from the prefect's yamen.

The prefect's yamen sent out the news at dawn the next day, informing the entire Jinling City of the news about the temporary pardon of the big families, these big families will be "house arrested" in their mansions for a period of time in the future, and the property in the mansions will still be counted and confiscated, but if there are families involved in the rebellion of King Chong before, then these families will still be liquidated.

Ji Ning was busy all night, looking very tired, and when he returned to the mansion, he was in the study, and soon after the news came out from the prefect's yamen, He An informed Ji Ning of the news.

Li Xiu'er and Su Pujia also appeared beside Ji Ning, and Li Xiu'er said with concern: "Master, I heard that the sins of the big family have been forgiven?" Does that mean that the Su family will no longer have to be held accountable in the future? ”

"Perhaps!" Ji Ning looked up at Li Xiu'er and Su Pujia, he didn't know how to answer, because this matter had not yet been finalized.

Ji Ning sighed lightly: "In the past period of time, it was a kind of retaliatory suppression of the local family by the local yamen, as for the prefect's yamen announcing that the charges have been clarified, then all the families who have been convicted of the crime finally have a statement, and finally the situation of the Su family has to go to the yamen to ask specifically." ”

Li Xiu'er and Su Pujia were looking at Ji Ning at the same time, as if to say, since you said so, why don't you hurry up to the yamen to ask about the situation?

Ji Ning himself is also very helpless, in fact, he is a little exhausted in his heart, for the Su family and the local family, which have nothing to do with him, he has worked hard, he has been running and breaking his leg for the past two days, and he has experienced so many things, seeing Zhang Hua, and even fighting wits and courage with Honglan and Ning Xin, and finally almost threatened his life by the mysterious woman in white...... All this made Ji Ning very tired.

"Let's wait." Ji Ning didn't go out immediately, but used a delaying method against Li Xiu'er and Su Pujia, "I'm not sure what the sincerity of the prefect's yamen is, if they really want to pardon the local family, then it's okay, at least this matter is settled, the information in the city is still a little messy, this time is ...... It's a little early, let me rest for a while! ”

Li Xiu'er still understood Ji Ning very well, she nodded and said, "The master is also tired, he just came back, he should rest, then Sister Su and I will go in first to wait for the good news of the master." ”

Su Pujia over there obviously didn't understand Ji Ning, she felt that Ji Ning seemed to do this as if it was right, and her eyes seemed to be resting before blaming Ji Ning for not solving the problem.

Ji Ning naturally didn't bother with Su Pujia in general, he felt that he had done the right thing, then it would be fine, and after Su Pujia and Li Xiu'er entered the inner courtyard, Ji Ning was in front of the desk, and he didn't rest, but was holding a pen and writing and drawing on paper, and on his paper, there were several people's names repeatedly, one was Qin Yuanyuan, and the other was Zhao Yuanrong.

"In the past, I always felt that Qin Yuanyuan's defection to Zhao Yuanrong was a helpless move, which was considered Qin Yuanyuan's corner, but why does it seem that many things seem to be intentional now? A smart person like me, as if he was misled by his own cleverness, there are clearly some things that I have overlooked, I used to think about these problems with a fixed thinking, and I still can't solve these mysteries? ”

Ji Ning was a little distressed, he thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't sort out an effective idea.

One thing he was sure of was that he felt that he didn't know enough about Qin Yuanyuan.

"In the past, I may not have cared about Qin Yuanyuan's intentions, she is her, I am me, I can help her, and it can be regarded as a kind of reciprocation for her appreciation of me at the beginning, but now it is different, Qin Yuanyuan has now completed a kind of psychological control over me in just the shortest time and has become my woman, this may be a gain for me, but it is not a loss?"

Just when Ji Ning was thinking about Qin Yuanyuan's matter, He An entered his study again, and he said, "Master, there is news from outside, saying that the prefect's yamen has begun to release some family members, does the master want to go and see again?" ”

Everyone felt that Ji Ning, who would be at this point, should not stay in his own house, but should go outside to check the situation.

Only Ji Ning can handle it calmly, no matter what happens outside, he can wait for the situation at home.

Ji Ning nodded and said: "Uncle An, you don't have to worry too much, I know in my heart, you just have to go outside and wait first, and then I will leave and go outside to inquire about some situations, and then I may have to go to the Temple of Literature, if Mrs. and Miss Su ask, you will say, I will control this matter, and there will be no problems!" ”

After saying that, Ji Ning suddenly felt that it was time for him to leave his house, and he always stayed in the Ji Mansion, which was indeed a lack of necessary control over the outside.

Ji Ning stood up and walked all the way out, He An followed, and when he arrived at the door, He An asked, "Master, do you have a carriage for you?" ”

"No need, I'll take care of the situation in the city...... By the way, you have to remember, no matter who comes, they are not allowed to enter the mansion gate, now my situation is very embarrassing, many forces of people, should be aimed at me, the gate of the mansion should also be watched, no matter who is paying attention to this side, you don't need to pay attention to it, and don't have any conflicts with anyone! Ji Ning said.

Ji Ning's words obviously couldn't be understood by He An, and after He An thought for a while, he nodded and said: "The master just rest assured, after the master leaves, the door of the mansion will be closed tightly, so that no one can take advantage of it!" ”

"Hmm!" After Ji Ning nodded, he left.

After he left the Ji Mansion, he dodged for a while, and after observing that no one was following him, he went to see Shangguan Wan'er.

At this time, Guan Wan'er had just freshened up and was about to rest, when she saw Ji Ning coming in, she was still a little annoyed, because she felt as if she had no room for privacy.

"Can you tell me before you pick it up?" Shangguan Wan'er seemed to be a little angry and said.

Ji Ning sighed lightly: "It's an extraordinary time, what do you want me to tell you?" Your small courtyard is not big, and I have to tell you when I come in, so don't you have to find someone to serve you here, and I can come in and communicate with you at any time? ”

Shangguan Wan'er frowned and said, "You said let me rest first, what's the matter, there is something important for me to do?" ”

"This matter is not very big, help me put on makeup again, I am going to meet Zhang Hua at the meeting place, after all, I can't go with my current face!" Ji Ning said.
