Everyone was gloomy, and several female relatives couldn't hold back their tears.

Ji Ran raised his head and said with determination: "I found a few old subordinates, and they promised to help me rescue you, you have to prepare for it in the past two days, and the next time Moyun attacks the city, we will do it." ”

The Ji family was excited for a while, and finally looked forward to a glimmer of life, at least they didn't have to live in this dark prison for the rest of their lives, but they felt deeply sad, what kind of family is the Ji family, it is also several generations of loyalty, how did they end up robbing prison.

Ji Li hesitated for a moment and asked: "Even if we successfully escaped from the prison, but now that the city is surrounded by black clouds, where can we escape, if we don't want to go anywhere, I'm afraid we will be arrested back, our family is doomed to die and have nothing to say, but we shouldn't affect those who help us." ″

Ji Ran nodded: "Don't worry, it seems that Chiyan won't last much time, now that the ghost king has taken Zeyu, he should be transferred to Chiyan in the near future, and at that time, Chiyan is afraid that he won't be able to last a day, and now the emperor is forcing the generals to meet the enemy, just to have more bargaining chips for negotiation, how can he not be precarious." Let's go out and hide in your uncle's house for a few days, the court may not have the heart to pay attention to us, once the fighting stops, we... Let's go overseas. ″

The eldest lady of the Ji family was reluctant to say: "Why do you want to go, can't we not go?" We can also be Moyun's people, the Ghost King shouldn't target us! "They don't know what it's like overseas, and they don't know what kind of things they have to face. It's just rumored that the people on the other side of the sea eat raw food and sleep on flat ground, and their lives are far from those of the Five Kingdoms, so this is not an ideal place.

Ji Ran fell silent, will the ghost king let go of the Ji family, if the confrontation on the battlefield is just for each of his masters, then he teamed up with Mo Lingyu to use his son as bait to murder her, this can be said to be a big personal grudge, after such a thing, can the ghost king let his family go free, he really doesn't dare to gamble on his family's life again.

Ji Li saw his father's embarrassment, and continued: "Let's talk about these later, it's better to go out first." ″

Ji Ran nodded, took out a few swords from under the food box and handed them to Ji Li, who took them and covered them with thatch.

In the south of the city, in the Zhong University Scholar's Mansion, the housekeeper is leading an old man into the study, this old man is over the age of six, wearing a foreign suit, not like an official, but like a businessman.

Scholar Zhong in the study frowned, as if he had endless troubles, of course, he was really troubled, the emperor had distanced himself from him, and sent a secret guard to watch him, he didn't know when he would become a bargaining chip between Chiyan and Moyun at the negotiation table, thinking that he had exhausted all his life, but he didn't think about it, but he could count it like this.

Looking up at the old man who was brought in by the caretaker, Scholar Zhong asked, "Are you Ji Ran's brother-in-law Wang Yuan?" Is there anything you have to do with me late at night? ”

Wang Yuan bowed and said, "Lord Huizhong, the villain is Wang Yuan, but my sister passed away early, and she is not close to that Ji Ran." I came to Lord Zhong tonight because I had something important to tell you. ”

"Tell me anything."

"Back to Lord Zhong, Ji Ran has been staying at my house, I didn't know it originally, and it was only yesterday that I found out that my brother took him in. Moreover, I also found that some military attachés in Ji Ran's army had close contacts, and I heard from my brother that they intended to rob the prison. I was shocked to know this, this is a capital crime, my Wang family has always lived a stable life, but I don't want to become a criminal like them, and please be a good adult. ”

Scholar Zhong was happy after listening to it, he was only worried about it recently, but he forgot about the Ji family. And the Ji family is really powerful, just gave him the opportunity to maneuver in front of the emperor, God really helps me.

So Scholar Zhong said to Wang Yuan: "Don't worry, since you reported him, you have made up for it, I will explain it to you, and I will not hold you accountable." If they say anything more, you must report it to me as quickly as possible.

After saying a few words, Wang Yuan sent away, and Scholar Zhong sent someone to hand over the fold and asked to enter the palace.

The Emperor of Chiyan didn't want to see Scholar Zhong, and when he saw him, he had to think of the shame of asking Moyun to be a minister, but now he couldn't ignore him, after all, this was a very powerful courtier he had always relied on.

After Scholar Zhong came in, he told the Ji family about the matter of Chiyan Guojun, and then sighed and said: "Ji Ran, this old horseman, took refuge in Moyun behind the emperor's back, if it weren't for him, maybe Chiyan wouldn't have been defeated like this, this is all the fault of this old horseman." ”

Chiyan Guojun slapped the table and said angrily: "It's really too deceitful, you lost the battlefield and surrendered to the enemy, I gave you a chance several times, but you didn't know how to be grateful, and you still thought about robbing the prison, it seems that you didn't put me, the emperor, in your eyes from beginning to end." ”

Scholar Zhong continued: "Isn't it, if you want to come to this Ji Ran to Moyun, you must be reused by the Ghost King, after all, in the battle with Chiyan, this Ji Ran will give him a great achievement." ”

"I want to be beautiful, and I also think of Moyun to live a good life, as long as I am the emperor for one day, I must not let him go, without this thief, why would my great country be like this." Chiyan Guojun was angry on the surface, but he was relieved in his heart, he found a scapegoat for his shame of losing the country, not that he was a bad monarch, but that there was something wrong with the courtiers.

Scholar Zhong said: "Your Majesty, in your opinion, how should this Ji family be handled?" ”

Chiyan Guojun thought for a moment and said: "The world says that there is no evidence of collusion between the Ji family and Moyun, and that I have wronged a loyal minister, and I want the world to see what this loyal minister is like." Didn't he want to rob the prison, or they robbed me, and then I was arrested and brought back openly, and one by one I was corrected on the spot. ”

Scholar Zhong said: "Let the ministers handle this matter, the ministers will definitely uproot this Ji family and let people know the fate of betraying the emperor." ”

The Emperor of Chiyan nodded, wrote an edict and handed it to Scholar Zhong.

Two days later, Mo Yun finally launched a fierce attack on Zeyu Capital, and the battle on the battlefield was fierce, but in the Heavenly Prison, it was also short-handed, and the sound of killing was bursting. Ji Ran took a group of soldiers to fight with the guards of the prison, and it was strange while beating Ji Ran, the prison has always been heavily guarded, but it will not be so strict, it seems to be prepared, and as soon as he opened the prison door, someone appeared, how could it be so coincidental, but the generals who followed him were all his friends, and he really didn't want to think that someone among them betrayed him.

The guards in the prison fought and retreated, and they actually withdrew from the cell door little by little, retreated to the palace, and let more guards surround them. Then, these people began to be ruthless, revealing their true identities - Ouchi guards. One person read out the charges against Ji Ran on the side, and then announced the conviction and ordered him to be killed on the spot. Don't give the Ji family a chance to breathe and speak, all the guards will be killed, and after a while, the soldiers who came to help save people will be killed and injured, and the people who can fight in the Ji family are also hung up.

Suddenly, a figure flew down and kicked away a guard who was slashing at Ji Feiling with a knife, saving Ji Feiling.

The familiar feeling made Ji Feiling stunned for a moment, and immediately knew who this person was, tears slid down her cheeks, and she said in a low voice: "What are you doing here, don't you want to die?" ”

The masked man said, "Don't worry, I'll leave you alone later." You let the Ji family come with me in a while, and I'll take you out. After speaking, he brandished his sword, stepped forward to fight a bloody road, escorted the people of the Ji family to the street, and then cut off the Ji family. He stopped all the pursuers in the yamen.

In the end, the group ran to an alley, and the weak people of the Ji family couldn't run, so they sat on the ground to rest. Ji Li stepped forward and asked: "I don't know the benefactor's name, today is really thanks to the benefactor, otherwise the whole family will die." ”

The masked man lowered his voice and said, "You don't have to ask about these, do you have a safe place to stay?" I'll send you there. ”

Ji Li hesitated, but Ji Feiling stood up and said: "Actually, we have already arrived, this wall is my uncle's house, and when we get there, we will be safe, you better go." ”

The masked man didn't expect Ji Feiling to let him go, but he didn't want to do this, but said to the Ji family: "Then you guys go in, I don't think anyone is chasing after me." ”

Ji Li nodded, yes, although this is the back door, there are still people coming, but it is not a place where you can talk. So he stepped forward and knocked on the small door a few times, and the small door soon opened, and the Ji family cheered and walked towards the back door.

The masked man saw that the Ji family had entered the house, hesitated, but still couldn't let go of Ji Feiling, so he also entered the small door, but everything behind the door made him stunned.

Behind the door were rows of crossbowmen, as well as a circle of Ouchi guards, surrounding the Ji family. This is like an encirclement, and the net is spread in this backyard, waiting for the Ji family to enter automatically.

Ji Ran sighed and put down the weapon in his hand, is there any need to fight again now, He was tired and didn't want to struggle uselessly. He thought that he owed nothing to others in his life, but he did not expect to be betrayed by his relatives, and now, he is physically and mentally exhausted.

Seeing this, the others also gave up their resistance, and they were going to die eventually, and they couldn't escape.

Ji Li looked at the masked man and said to the David Guards on the side: "The Ji family is at your disposal, but this person is innocent, can you let him go." ”

Waiting for the commander of the guard sneered: "You say that he is not the Ji family, he is not, you just say innocent, you still think you are General Ji, you can't protect yourself and you still want to intercede for others, it's really a dream." “

The commander of the guards turned around and masked the man: "Show your true face and let me see where you are sacred." ”
