As early as when Jiang Yichen walked out of the forbidden army barracks, he arranged for Dong Jiu to quietly turn back and sneak into the handsome tent to protect the sergeant who framed Ji Ying. Sure enough, in just half an hour, a team of people came to kill him. Dong Jiu and Qu Shao had already prepared and worked together to repel the killer. Before the time of a stick of incense, a killer dressed as a sergeant sent a highly poisonous meal, which was also recognized by Dong Jiu, but unfortunately the killer shot quickly and committed suicide first.

After a series of assassinations, the sergeant was frightened, but unfortunately he didn't know much, only said that the general Murong Kui instructed him to do it, but when Qu Shao entered Murong Kui's tent, he found that he had committed suicide with a sword, and then, Murong Kui's cousin and deputy commander Wang Yu committed suicide by poisoning.

After half a month, under the order of the emperor, Jiang Yichen assisted Qu Shao to comprehensively investigate the identity and background of the generals and instructors in the forbidden army, and to investigate suspicious people, which achieved great results. Through vigorous rectification, more than a dozen officers who resold ordnance, took military salaries by fraudulents, and colluded with foreign countries were investigated and punished, and most of these people had some backgrounds and were involved in a wide range of cases. When the news came out, the court was in an uproar. The emperor ordered the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials to continue the detailed investigation, and punish and sentence all the officials involved in the case according to the severity of the circumstances.

Here, Jiang Yichen is making a decision on the cusp of the storm, but over there, Ji Ying is recuperating at home. The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Miao Tailor doesn't dare to slack off, busy for Ji Ying, for fear that there will be a little mistake and leave the root of the disease. Ji Ying's injuries recovered quickly in meticulous care.

With Ji Ying's current status, there are many people who want to visit. Many officials took advantage of this to make friends with Ji Ying, and visited with gifts. Miao Zhi didn't like the false faces of these officialdom veterans, and under the pretext that Ji Ying was seriously injured and needed to recuperate, he let Duanmu Lingfeng send it away properly.

But there are also people who can't thank you. Nomadic three trips a day has become a rule, and every time he comes, he takes the medicine that is hard to find in the world, and it is too late to ask for a wonderful decision, so he naturally will not refuse.

The two sons of the Rong family also came twice with the little sister of the Rong family. The first time was the second day of Ji Ying's accident, when Ji Ying was groggy, and the son of the Rong family was inconvenient to disturb, so he went back early, but Rong Ci cried for a long time at Ji Ying's bedside with Ji Ying's miserable white face, which embarrassed his brothers. Rong Zhe reproached: "How can anyone still cry when you see a patient? Rong Ci sobbed and said: "It's all your fault, you don't know how to accompany Ji Ying when you go to that kind of place, and the harmful Ji Ying is in other people's ways, and now he teaches me in turn!" The Rong brothers were innocently blamed, but they didn't dare to say a word, so they had to persuade their little sister to go back early.

When the Rong brothers and sisters came over for the second time, Ji Ying had just taken the medicine and was in a much better spirit. She had been lying bent on her back for two days, tired and restless. She had no choice but to put a thick quilt behind her and let her lean on it.

Today, the eldest lady of the Rong family is in a good mood, at least she didn't cry bitterly when she saw Ji Ying. Miao ordered the people to set up a few chairs, made a good pot of tea himself, and served Rong Ci a plate of small pastries made of flower petals and medicinal herbs.

Rong Ci was angry when she saw the pastry, because she felt that it was a challenge to her. Rong Ci thinks he is perfect, and his appearance is excellent, but his cooking skills are lacking. The clever cut can blend sweet petals and bitter herbs, but it is fragrant and delicious, which makes her mouth unstoppable, which is really clever. No, she decided to hide in the kitchen and study hard when she got home, and make a better pastry for Ji Ying to eat. Of course, she doesn't mind using anyone in the family as a test subject.

Ji Ying finally looked forward to someone who could tell her something other than recuperating from her injuries, so she asked, "What's the situation outside?" ”

Rong Zhe replied: "Xiao Huaiwang's thunderous means to punish these army moths are not devastating!" Everyone knows that Rong Zhe has long admired Jiang Yichen's father and son, but Ji Ying still thinks that Rong Ci's "personality cult" may be related to Rong Philosophy.

Ji Ying lifted the horn of the quilt and said: "Although King Xiaohuai's status is precious, but to organize the army with such fanfare, I am afraid that there will be too many enemies, which will be detrimental to him." ”

"You don't have to worry about this," Rong Shen said, "First, this matter has become a big problem, and it is not good to end it hastily without an explanation; The two Xiaohuai Wang are thoughtful, familiar with the way of officialdom, and understand it in moderation. ”

"I am convinced of Xiao Huaiwang's methods, but after all, things started because of me, but I have to rely on him to protect me, and I always feel ashamed." Ji Ying said, "Actually, I still haven't figured it out, I just intervened in the investigation, why are those people so anxious to kill me?" ”

"They killed you because you got in their way, and you may have spied on a crucial part of this case without knowing it, and these people are worried that the matter will be exposed, and they want to kill you. However, I think that this assassination was also a temporary intention, after all, the martial artist has no heart, and it is easy to be in a hurry, and in the end, the matter will be revealed. ”

Ji Ying nodded in agreement, but she was still worried about another question: "I always feel that Your Majesty doesn't seem to be ignorant of this case, but he is silent and doesn't know what the meaning is. ”

"I can't guess what Your Majesty means, but one thing is obvious, and that is that the investigation ordered by His Majesty himself, ostensibly to govern the army, is actually a wake-up call to those court parties and weaken their military power. Do you think that His Majesty has asked for immortals for so many years, and he really doesn't eat the fireworks of the world? As a monarch, he must be suspicious, and His Majesty also wants to regain military power through this matter, so he will give King Xiaohuai so much power. ”

Ji Ying sighed and said, "I hope that everything goes well with King Xiaohuai." ”

"If you feel guilty, get better quickly, I think Xiao Huaiwang really needs help."

"Okay." Ji Ying replied with a smile.

"Ah Ying," Miao Judge whispered outside the door, "His Royal Highness King Qi has arrived." ”

Even if Zhou Jue, the king of Qi, is an idle prince with no real power, he is also His Majesty's favorite prince, who dares to be disrespectful, so Rong Shen and Rong Zhe are all groomed and go out to greet him. Ji Ying had difficulty moving and did not move. And Rong Ci - thank goodness Rong Ci didn't come out when he heard the word "King of Qi". However, what made Ji Ying strange was that Rong Ci didn't seem to pretend to be calm, as if the previous misunderstanding hadn't happened, nor did she deliberately pretend not to care, which caused Zhou Jue's anger, she still tasted the dim sum brought by the clever tailor, looking like waiting for an acquaintance.

Only Zhou Jue came today, and there was no Li Yuhan, which made Ji Ying sigh lightly with a sigh of relief while having doubts.

Since the Luming Banquet, she has never seen Zhou Jue again, but Zhou Jue has not changed, he is still dressed in royal style, the only thing that can be called different is that he has a simple but not monotonous long sword hanging on his left side.

After Zhou Jue entered the house, Ji Ying tried her best to greet him, and the shelf of Prince Zhou Jue was full of display, saying: "There are injuries on the body, please excuse me." Then he saw Rong Ci sitting on the side and said, "Miss Rong is also there?" ”

Rong Ci finished the last piece of snack, patted the residue on his hand, and replied, "Ji Ying is injured, of course I want to see her." ”

Ji Ying was even more surprised, when did the relationship between these two people get better? Hasn't something big happened in the last few days?

Zhou Jue sat on the chair that Miao Jue had just prepared for him, and said, "Father is worried about your injury, let me come over and have a look, and by the way, I will send a new set of official uniforms." I have already handed over the official uniform to your wife. ”

Ji Ying raised her hand and saluted: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”

"Can't you come back in two days?" Rong Ci said angrily, "You see that as soon as you come in, Ji Ying won't be able to rest properly." ”

"Little sister, don't be rude!" Rong Shen reprimanded.

Zhou Jue waved his hand and said, "It's okay, what Miss Rong said is also the truth." ”

Ji Ying asked, "When did His Royal Highness King Qi have such a good relationship with Miss Rong?" ”

"Our relationship hasn't been any worse." Zhou Jue said, but as soon as he finished speaking, he received Rong Ci's white eyes, and hurriedly explained the reason, "I found a weapons store two days ago, the weapons in it are all excellent, I searched for a long time, and I fell in love with a sword - this one in my hand - the appearance is good, the workmanship is also fine, and the price is fair, and when I paid it, I knew that this store was originally Miss Rong's." ”

"Hey, when did you open an armory shop?"

"I like weapons." Rong Ci showed his nine-section whip and said, "My nine-section whip and the second brother's long sword were both picked by me. ”

"And after that?"

Zhou Jue shrugged his shoulders and said, "After nothing, I bought this sword, and Miss Rong gave me a very convenient sword pendant, and the previous misunderstanding was written off." ”

"So that's the case," Ji Ying smiled, "I didn't expect Miss Rong to have this ability." ”

"Why, do you think I'm only going to sell some clothes and jewelry? It's too underestimating me. My dad used to like to build weapons himself, and I learned a lot about it. ”

Zhou Jue took the opportunity to compliment a few words: "Miss Rong is a strange woman who does not let her eyebrows, how can a girl who is waiting for her be compared?" ”

Rong Ci knew that Zhou Jue's words were polite words, but she was very useful, and secretly thought that if only the wonderful referee was present, she would be able to win a game.

After enduring it for a long time, Ji Ying finally asked Zhou Jue without a trace: "I heard that His Royal Highness King Qi has always been friendly with Second Prince Li, why didn't he go with him today?" ”

"You said Yuhan, he ...... He's in a bad mood. ”

"Oh? Get up on the wrong side of the bed? Then it's time to go out and go. ”

Zhou Jue sighed and said, "There is still more than a month to go until Bo Weihou's fiftieth birthday, no matter how you say it, it is also a big day. You also know that the eldest son of the Li family has not come back for so many years after leaving home, and Yu Han also had a falling out with his father last year, so as long as he goes out in recent days, some sons of the family come to ask him if he will go home when Bo Weihou is on his birthday. He felt that he couldn't answer, so he simply didn't even go out the door. In fact, it's not that Yuhan is not filial, he also has hardships. ”

"What can keep him hiding outside and not coming home?" Rong Ci ignored it and blurted out.

"Little sister!" Rong Shen reprimanded.

"It doesn't matter," Zhou Jue said, "we have known each other for many years, and we know each other best." He is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted man, and he has a lot of things in his heart. I asked many times why I had such a quarrel with Hou Ye, but he just didn't say it, and it was hard to say. Bo Weihou is also pitiful, the whereabouts of the eldest son are unknown, and the second son lives away, and when he is old, he is desolate. ”

Wretched? Ji Ying laughed secretly in his heart, he was just reaping the consequences.
