Ji Zixu didn't expect that at this time, the Ji Mansion ran out of water in the middle of the night, and when the fire got bigger, someone found out that the Ji Mansion was burned overnight to only a charred black empty shelf.
When he heard that the old gentleman was in a hurry to return from that night, he hurried to find the old gentleman, and said that the old gentleman must know something.
Under pressure, the old gentleman said that he had really seen someone set the fire, and he shrank outside the crack in the door and did not dare to say anything.
Ji Zixu was full of anger when he heard it, but who should he find for revenge? is not deeply involved in the world, and I don't even know who I have a grudge with at home.
On the way here, he was still glad that this old gentleman might be a distant relative or an old friend of his family, and he could take care of him.
Disappointingly, he and the old gentleman didn't know each other, and the old gentleman was not a powerful person and couldn't help him.
The old gentleman only asked Gu Shu where he was going and whether he was still safe. Ji Zixu was aggrieved after hearing this, squatting on the ground and crying profusely, no one would ever think of asking him how to do it, the old gentleman took out the copper plate from his shirt tremblingly, counted it carefully, turned around and left, and came back with a meat bun after a while, so fragrant that Ji Zixu couldn't cry.
The old gentleman stuffed the bun into his hand, touched his head kindly, and said, "My little apprentice loved to eat this in the past, and it was because of this that she was fated with her, and she should have been as old as you at that time." ”
Ji Zixu bit the bun and swallowed it with tears, he pulled the old gentleman's sleeve and sobbed: "The girl you said, I have met once, our family treats her very well, and the treatment is only lower than that of the old ancestor." ”
Speaking of Gu Shu, the old gentleman wiped his tears, still not convinced: "Why is such a good little girl gone."
"It should be my family who offended some big man to provoke the destruction of the door." Ji Zixu cherished the last bite of meat into his belly, lowered his head and said.
The old gentleman wiped his tears and looked at Ji Zixu in astonishment, "For such a big matter, why don't you report to the official?" ”
Ji Zixu said ruthlessly, "How many parents are in the government?" The officials protect each other, and the rogues are their closing words, what kind of rogues, those people are not here for money at all, and they are red-eyed to kill one person in our house......"
The old gentleman was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and his hands were so shaky that he couldn't hold anything, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
"I went wronged in vain, and it was not easy for me to come and leave like this, and I will be a good person when I come."
After the words were finished, the old gentleman was still about to set off and return, Ji Zixu sent him off without saying a word, and the old gentleman suddenly turned around and asked softly when he went out: "Little brother, where are you going, why don't you go with me?" ”
Ji Zixu shook his head and refused, only urging the old gentleman to leave quickly.
As soon as Gu Shu heard that the Ji family and the master were a little broken, the tears couldn't be stopped at all, and the crying was unsteady, Ji Zixu helped her, and she simply sat on the hillside with Ji Zixu.
"You know what? Master is also gone, and I am responsible for it......"
All along, Gu Shu has been blaming herself, the death of the master and the Ji family is due to her, she knows the inside story, knows how much the sanctimonious king hates the queen mother, and even dislikes the Ji family and dislikes her...... All those who have anything to do with the queen mother, he will be wiped clean, just like a child who has made a mistake and does not repent, and only wants to cover it up, and uses one killing after another to cover it up.
