Chapter 75: Trouble [Second Update]
Yan Ling turned his head violently, his gaze wrapping around Ji Tianjiao's back like a poisonous snake. Ji Tianjiao trembled, and subconsciously wrapped his arms with his hands, looking pitiful. However, she knew the stakes well, gritted her teeth and said: "At that time, I was awakened by the exclamation of the green frieze, and I asked out loud, but I did not get an answer...... I was frightened, so I felt the dagger and got out of bed, and hid in the corner, and then I saw a man come in with a knife, and I was frightened for a moment, and gasped. The other party found me, and in the midst of the struggle, the dagger was stabbed into her chest......"
Ji Tianjiao didn't dare to raise his eyes to see Yan Lingtian's expression, he only hung his head and said, "I was frightened a lot at that time, and then I fainted, and I don......'t know what to do."
When the people in the Gyeonggi Yamen heard this, they couldn't even pretend to be transparent people, and they were no longer needed here anyway, so they hurriedly found an excuse to leave and leave.
Yan Xuan's brows furrowed, and Yan Lingtian's tone was extremely cold: "You don't want to spew blood!" Do you think that with a little guesswork, you can make me bear the injustice! ”
Ji Erlan didn't argue with her at all, only said: "The Son of Heaven broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, even if the Yan family is powerful, he can't take care of other people's lives at will, saying that whoever wants to die, he will die." The merits of the matter, Miss Yan doesn't admit it, why don't you report it to Dali Temple to cut it? ”
Yan Ling's body couldn't help but straighten, if she made a fuss, no matter what the result was, what face would she have to gain a foothold in Beijing! "I didn't let Shen Xiang kill Ji Tianjiao at all!"
"Oh? Then who are you asking Fukaka to kill? Ji Erlan's voice was soft and faint, like a feather brushing past everyone's ears, with a slight bewilderment.
Yan Lingtian was not so easily deceived, and the words that almost blurted out were quickly restrained by her. Yan Yan slowly walked in front of her and turned to look at Ji Chenglin: "Master Ji, please allow me to say a word." ”
Although Ji Chenglin was in charge at this time, he still didn't want to have a hard time with the Yan family, so he straightened his expression, nodded, and said, "Say it." ”
Yan Yan glanced at Ji Erlan and signaled Yan Ling to calm down: "My sister was heartbroken when she learned that her close maid had died unexpectedly, and she said a lot of things that should not be said, and I ask Master Ji for forgiveness." It's just that my sister is innocent and kind-hearted, and it is impossible for Shenxiang to come and do this kind of thing. As for why Shen Xiang acted without permission, I'm afraid it was because she had poisonous thoughts in her heart that she did such a stupid thing. ”
Ji Erlan smiled secretly, this Yan Yan is really powerful, in such a short period of time, he already knows Ji Chenglin's temperament well. This is to make peace with the mud, turning big things into small things, and turning small things into nothing. not only matched Ji Chenglin's mind of not wanting to cause trouble, but also dragged the Yan family out of the quagmire.
Ji Chenglin tasted the meaning of his words and said, "Oh? What Yan Gongzi means is that last night's incident was made by this maid on her own initiative and had nothing to do with Miss Yan? ”
"Exactly." Yan Yan glanced at Ji Erlan and asked, "Presumably, Miss Ji can't prove that what Shenxiang did was ordered by her sister, right?" ”
Ji Erlan had expected them to say this, and she didn't care about it at the moment, but replied lightly: "The subordinates and guards of the Yan family are really disobedient to discipline, first they came to the Ji Mansion to inquire for no reason, and this time there was a matter of the maid coming to kill the daughter of the court official without authorization...... It's incomprehensible. Next time, who are the Yan family's secret guards going to assassinate again? ”
Yan Lingtian's face was blue and white for a while, and what happened last time was what King Du saw with his own eyes. Yan Yan said that she would give Ji Erlan an explanation afterwards, but in fact, she didn't take Ji Erlan to heart at all, and she didn't fulfill her promise at all. Unexpectedly, at this time, Ji Erlan turned over the old accounts.
Yan Yan thought more than Yan Lingtian, and then his face changed greatly, and Ji Erlan said, "Next time, who are the Yan family's secret guards going to assassinate again?" 'Obviously there is a meaning, if it spreads, what will the emperor think, and what will the two kings do? Will you take the opportunity to deal with the Yan family? He rebuked coldly: "What a clever little lady, I advise you, don't be unforgiving." ”
Ji Erlan looked at him, did not flinch, and said, "Is it really that I have to be unforgiving?" What did Miss Yan say so reasonably, at the beginning, she wanted to slander my Ji family for killing your maidservant, but when she saw that the limelight was wrong, she said that it had nothing to do with herself, and it was the maidservant who made her own opinion? ”
Ji Erlan sneered and said: "Or Yan Gongzi listens to my advice, go back to the house and train his subordinates well, don't come out 'without authorization' at every turn to commit murder, even the big girl who is close to him is like this, and others can pay it back?" ”
"You!" Yan Hui's identity is also one of the best among the nobles in the capital, and even the emperor is very kind when he sees him, when has he ever been so ironic.
Ji Erlan knew that Ji Chenglin was bent on calming things down, so he followed his meaning and said: "However, since Yan Gongzi has spoken, I don't mean to hold on, anyway, Shenxiang has already suffered a bad retribution, so I will stop this matter." ”
Although the brothers and sisters of the Yan family got what they wanted, they were angry and vomited blood by Ji Erlan's 'generosity and ignorance' attitude. Yan Ling's back stiffened, trying his best to control himself from rushing forward and slapping the other party twice. Yan Yan also secretly grinded his back molars and said, "Don't leave it here!" ”
After that, Yan Ling ordered someone to take Shenxiang's body away, and dragged the resentful Yan Ling away without looking back.
The light shone through the shadows of the trees, sparsely falling on Ji Erlan's face, and she stood there quietly. I didn't go to see the brothers and sisters of the Yan family who fled in embarrassment, nor did I go to see Ji Chenglin and Ji Tianjiao, who were still in a trance.
Her gaze fell on a budding gardenia, and her expression was cold and faint.
After a while, she said: "Father, the eldest sister has caused such a big trouble, so she should be sent out of the city to avoid the limelight, otherwise, it won't take tomorrow for the saliva of the people in the capital to drown her." ”
Ji Chenglin was stunned, and then looked at Ji Tianjiao. Ji Tianjiao was also stunned for a while, isn't it okay already, why do you want her to avoid the limelight? "Daddy, I'm ......"
Before Ji Tianjiao's word 'go' could be spoken, she saw Ji Erlan turn her head to look over, and her cold gaze pierced her heart. How could she forget that although Ji Erlan repelled the Yan family's brothers and sisters, it was a fact that she conspired with Yan Ling to kill the Qin family's life...... Ji Erlan didn't break it because she didn't want to leave a handle for Yan Lingtian, but it didn't mean that she would let herself go.
Even Yan Lingtian is not her opponent, what can she do? "I mean, I listen to my second sister."
Ji Chenglin thought about it, nodded and said, "It's okay, although this matter has nothing to do with our house, but after all, you are deeply involved, you should go to the nunnery outside the city for a while." ”
"Yes......" Ji Tianjiao agreed weakly, and didn't dare to speak more.
After the people from the Gyeonggi Yamen came, Ji Chenglin sent the Qin family and the others back to his courtyard, so he didn't know how things would turn out. Therefore, as soon as Ji Erlan returned to the empty mountain building, the two brothers Qin and Ji Yun came over to inquire.
"Erlan, what the hell is going on, how did things become like this?"
Ji Erlan said: "You still don't understand? Deep incense was sent by Yan Ling to kill you. ”
The Qin family couldn't speak, Ji Yun gasped and said, "Sister, what's going on?" ”
"Yan Lingtian thought that I was an obstacle to her marrying King Du, and teamed up with Ji Tianjiao to spread rumors that I was not the daughter of the Ji family. However, the rumors didn't last long, and Yan Lingtian wanted A-Niang to 'commit suicide in fear of sin' in order to confirm this matter. ”
"What?!" Ji Yun couldn't believe it: "Just because you have a little friendship with King Du, Yan Lingtian is going to harm people so far?" ”
Ji Erlan looked at them and said, "So, after this incident, I hope you can understand that the puppet is not guilty. Don't think that you can be safe without provoking others, the forces in the capital, no matter how big or small, are innumerably involved, and you should think twice before doing things. Just like what happened in Li Chaosheng's family before, the eldest brother couldn't see it and wanted to help, but let the Ji family and the Liu family have a mustard, who can know, is there any hidden danger in this? ”
Ji Yun looked at her blankly, speechless for a long time.
Ji Erlan smiled: "Big brother doesn't have to blame himself, it's a good thing to have good intentions, but you must know how to protect yourself first." Only by making yourself strong can you do more of what you want to do, otherwise, you will always have to go with the flow. ”
Ji Yun frowned and said, "Sister, don't worry, the eldest brother will definitely become strong and protect you." I have decided to go to Rong, to make a contribution, so that you will no longer be under the control of your father and others! ”
Several people were stunned, and Qin Shi said worriedly: "Brother Yun, the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, what if you have a good one, let A-Niang do it?" ”
Ji Yun said: "My son is not a material for studying, and I don't want to mix with a group of sons and brothers in the capital, in that way, my son will not be promising, A-Niang can rest assured, it will be fine, and there is Ao Rui with me." We'll take care of each other! ”
Seeing that Ji Yun was resolute, the Qin clan opened his mouth, but finally failed to dissuade him. Ji Erlan said: "That's okay, it's a good thing that the eldest brother can go out to practice." ”
Ji Rong listened silently on the side, and suddenly asked, "Sister, those five people obviously came with that servant girl, why are the wounds all killed each other?" How did he become the guard of our house? ”
Ji Rong is a brain-loving person, thinking that he is more interested in reading than Yu Ji Yun, and he is more sensitive to human feelings.
"I already knew that it would be Shenxiang who came, and she made good use of the Jade Eyebrow Knife, so I asked Yuexi to kill the five secret guards with the Jade Eyebrow Knife. It's just a trick. Ji Erlan touched his head and said, "As for their identities, it was Prince Du who helped me do something about their identities." Otherwise, things won't be easy to do today. ”
As a mother, the Qin family was still more sensitive to Ji Erlan's interactions with other men, and when she heard this, she immediately asked: "Erlan, I heard that the prince of Du is a popular figure in Beijing, if you get too close to him, will there be trouble?" ”
"Yes." Ji Erlan replied without hesitation, but then said: "But the most terrible thing is not trouble, but when you encounter trouble, there is no one to help, and you are alone." ”
