Chapter 332: The Son of the World Questioned
Ji Yanning came to his senses and looked at Yuan Wu.
"Dig things out," she said. ”
Jinhe and the other guards who were standing on the side were all slightly stunned when they heard Ji Yanning's words, and they didn't react for a while.
Yuan Wu answered yes, and then asked Jinhe to stay by Ji Yanning's side to take care of her.
He sent the people back to the place where the carriage was, found the hoe that had been prepared long ago, and made them keep an eye on the movements around them, and then began to dig up the grave without words.
Jinhe was a little surprised, and asked Ji Yanning, "Why did the eldest lady let Yuan Wu and them dig other people's graves?"
Ji Yanning's face was pale, and he said lightly: "Because there is something I want in it." ”
Jinhe was speechless for a while, thinking that the eldest lady had found so many lonely graves in the barren mountains a few days ago but had not found them, it turned out that what she wanted to find was related to the county king's mansion, could it be that the eldest lady wanted to be buried in it?
However, the eldest lady has never been a master who is short of money, so she will not dig people's graves at every turn for a little burial.
There must be something important.
Yuan Wu and a few guards together dug up the wordless lonely grave in less than an hour, and as Ji Yanning expected, there was only one urn full of yellow charms in the coffin.
Ji Yanning glanced at it, only felt a headache, and said to Yuan Wu: "Take it back." ”
Jinhe's eyes moved slightly, but this time he didn't speak.
A guard said, "Miss, don't you have to get this grave back?"
Ji Yanning pondered for a while and said, "That's it, the bones are gone, what do you want this tomb to do." ”
Jinhe helped Ji Yanning to walk in the direction of the carriage, and then returned to the city.
Because Ji Yanning was not feeling well, the carriage could only move forward slowly, and it took nearly two hours before returning to the house.
Steward Ke originally wanted to come over to see Ji Yanning, but he didn't expect to be startled when she came back, Ji Yanning's weak appearance surprised him, and hurriedly invited a doctor to come for treatment.
However, several doctors were invited, but no one could diagnose what kind of illness Ji Yanning had.
Ji Yanning was prepared this time, but he didn't faint, but his body was still weak, and he felt that this body didn't seem to be his own.
According to her appearance, I am afraid that I will have to rest for a few days to get better.
On the third day after Ji Yanning's illness, it snowed in Laizhou City.
This is the first snow after the beginning of winter, because of the offshore, the winter in Laizhou is not only cold, but also mixed with gusts of cold wind, Ji Yanning only stayed in the room, waiting for his body to recover little by little.
Ji Yanning lay on the sickbed and asked Luwu and Qiuyue to read her travelogue, but it didn't seem boring.
It's just that Steward Ke is worried, if something happens to the eldest lady here, how can he explain it to Steward Wu and the people of Baochang Ji?
Ji Yanning comforted him and relieved him, his life would not die so easily.
On the fourth day, Rong Fangyu finally found out about the theft of the tomb, and when he arrived at the tomb mountain, he saw that it had been dug up and that it was empty, and there was nothing left.
He was furious and immediately ordered someone to investigate.
found that Ji Yanning had gone out of the city a few days ago, and he was about to go in the direction of the tomb mountain, so he personally found Baochang Ji.
He always felt that Ji Yanning's coming to Laizhou City was definitely not that simple, and when they met in the tomb mountain that day, Ji Yanning might have had a plan a long time ago.
As soon as Ji Yanning drank the calming medicine, Yuan Wu came in and reported that the prince of Lijun asked to see him.
She put the medicine bowl back on the plate, let Lu Wu stand down, and said, "Let him come." ”
Rong Fangyu walked into Ji Yanning's room with a calm face, he heard that Steward Ke said that Ji Yanning was sick, thinking it was just their excuse, but when he saw Ji Yanning's bloodless face, she used to look weak, and she believed a little bit in his heart.
He was wearing a black cloak, with a little white snowflakes falling on it, and as soon as he came in, a gust of wind instantly brought in the entire room, making Ji Yanning feel a chill.
She raised her eyes to look at Rong Fangyu, and squeezed out a white smile: "The prince is looking for me, what's the matter?"
Rong Fangyu's eyes flashed slightly, and she said, "It seems that Miss Ji is not adapted to the climate of Laizhou, and she is actually sick." ”
Ji Yanning said: "It's an old problem, and you can't die after all." ”
"I heard that Miss Ji went out of the city a few days ago. Rong Fangyu asked.
Ji Yanning's eyes flashed slightly, knowing what he was talking about this time, she said: "Yes, I have been in Laizhou City for so many days, and I often go out of the city to play, which is nothing new. ”
Rong Fangyu asked, "Where did Miss Ji go?"
Ji Yanning raised his eyes and looked at him: "What, where did I go, do I still need to report to the prince?" Or did the prince think that I had done something hurtful, so he came to question?"
Rong Fangyu looked at her, and his expression suddenly turned cold: "What did you do when you went to the Tomb Mountain that day?"
Ji Yanning said: "I remember that I had already explained to the prince that I would go to find the tomb of the deceased. ”
"Who is the deceased?" Rong Fangyu asked again, "As far as I know, Miss Ji should be from Jiangzhou, and her mother is from Chang'an, so where did the deceased come from in Laizhou?"
Ji Yanning smiled bitterly: "The prince might as well make it clear, these are my private affairs, and they have nothing to do with the prince, so naturally there is no need to report to the prince, just as the prince didn't tell others who the relatives and friends who went to see them that day, everyone has their own secrets, so why bother to dig into this." ”
Rong Fangyu's eyes were fixed on Ji Yanning, and he said, "I just want to ask, did you take someone to dig the tomb next to the tomb mountain." ”
When Ji Yanning heard her say this, he was slightly stunned at first, and then asked puzzledly: "Why do I want to dig up other people's graves? ”
Rong Fangyu kept staring at Ji Yanning, trying to find a flaw in her face, but she was very calm, as if this matter really had nothing to do with her.
But he couldn't think of anyone other than Ji Yanning who would move the tomb.
There are a lot of villagers next to it, but no one knows who is in the tomb, it looks like it's just a lonely tomb, who will dig up the tomb and steal it!
Ji Yanning said: "It turns out that the prince suspects me of being a tomb robber?"
Rong Fangyu didn't speak, acquiescing to her statement.
Ji Yanning smiled bitterly, coughed lightly twice, but coughed up a few traces of blood, she said: "Let's not talk about why I want to rob the tomb, and besides, does the prince think that I still have the energy to do such a thing when I look like this? I am a businessman, and I have heard a lot of comments from others that I am neither a traitor nor a businessman, and I am very indifferent and selfish, but this tomb robbery is the first time I have heard of it." Why do you want to go to the graves of your relatives and friends for no reason?"
Rong Fangyu said: "I didn't say it was the tomb of my relatives and friends. ”
"I'm just sick, not stupid. Ji Yanning said, "The prince came to me angrily to settle the account, if it wasn't for the tomb where the prince went to worship that day, why would he be suspicious of me, and why would he be so angry?"
