Chapter 82: Another Betrayal
Ji Weiliang couldn't think too much, almost all of his energy was used for cultivation, and he was once considered the purest sword cultivation in Yuezhou.
But it was such a martial idiot, after coming to Tongcheng, he turned his hands into clouds and turned his hands into rain, and suddenly became the lord of Yucheng.
Lin Xi checked back and forth, and there was a person following her from beginning to end, and that person was her old housekeeper.
In the Ji family, in order to save the housekeeper, Ji Weiliang even disregarded his own life, not only used spiritual power, but also took out the sky green wooden staff, which saved the person.
Moreover, after Ji Weiliang's housekeeper was injured, she lived alone in the deep mountains, except for a brief appearance in Chungeng, she did not appear in front of people.
There is no doubt that the housekeeper is the master behind Ji Weiliang, and he is a step by step game for Ji Weiliang.
"You have to take the housekeeper back to Yucheng...... Will you bully him, kill him, or keep him locked up as you did with me? Ji Weiliang really couldn't laugh, just squinted slightly, looked out the window, and asked in a low voice.
"What? What are you worried about? Lin Xi likes to watch Ji Weiliang lose.
"I'm afraid you're going to marry him."
ββ¦β¦β
After Lin Xi was gone, Ji Weiliang stretched his waist and added a glass of truffle sparkling water for himself.
"Man, if the old lady doesn't love you, you'd better not play any tricks in front of me." Ji Weiliang shook his head.
She never likes to fight with people, she doesn't like to cause trouble, but she is not afraid of things.
Since Lin Xi wants to send his head, regardless of whether he is the male protagonist or not, he has to fulfill him.
Ji Weiliang shook his hair, took out the city lord's order on his body, and hurriedly talked to Zuo Weiyang.
As for what to say?
Of course, it's about how to pit Lin Xi!
***
Walking out of Ji Weiliang's hut, Lin Xi flew out of the range of the magic circle, and the one waiting for him at the edge of the forest was not Ji Weiliang's old housekeeper.
"Good work." Lin Xi bowed slightly.
"The third prince is polite, I just hope that the third prince will remember what he promised me." The old butler hung his head, his tone full of helplessness.
"Of course." Lin Xi patted the old butler on the shoulder, he still admired talented people very much, "Steward Ji, you don't have to blame yourself, you are also here to cool off." β
"Hey." The old butler didn't want to say more, just buried his head.
"It's about to leave, Steward Ji, you go and say goodbye to Wei Liang." Lin Xi's gaze seemed soft.
"Nope." The old butler shook his head, "Miss's temper...... The old slave only hopes that the young lady is safe, and the rest doesn't matter. β
"That's fine, let's go." Lin Xi glanced back at the mountain.
Ji Weiliang, you are a woman after all.
Even if you are the leader of Yuezhou, for the Ji family and for Yucheng, your marriage is their bargaining chip.
The better you are, the heavier the stake.
They're all for your own good.
The old housekeeper let out a long sigh and followed Lin Xi into the team.
In the frame, Lin Xi took the seat.
"The matter of Tongcheng has been arranged, unless the young lady wants to go against the entire Tongcheng, it will definitely not be able to shake the foundation of the third son." The old butler whispered.
"Do you think Ji Weiliang will go against the whole of Tongcheng?" Lin Xi looked at the old butler.
"Miss doesn't really have any talent." The old housekeeper avoided answering, but talked about Ji Weiliang's cultivation, "Miss has not been smart since she was a child, she was bullied by her brothers and sisters at home, and she was bullied by her classmates when she went out to study, even children younger than her can beat her." β
"I really can't imagine that the leader of Yuezhou was like this when he was a child." Lin Xi was a little surprised, now Ji Weiliang, even standing there, can make many people lose the courage to do it, it is really a world of difference.
"Miss has a stubborn personality, which is rare among women, for Miss, God knows, that is, the world knows, she is lazy, she will admit that she has not practiced well." The old butler said this with a smile, but the helplessness and pity in it could not be concealed.
"Isn't that good?" Lin Xi's eyes were ambiguous.
"For ordinary people, honesty is a virtue, as a servant, as a slave, such a person can reassure the master's family, but the young lady is not a slave, nor a servant, for her, too honest, it is a mistake." The old housekeeper talked about things, "It's like Yanlong's change, she obviously doesn't have to work so hard, but she still fights for her cultivation and ruins her life." β
"To you, Ji Weiliang is more important than Yuezhou?" Lin Xi chuckled, "You're really a loyal servant. β
"She just needs to tell outsiders that she did her best, and now that she has defeated Yan Long by herself, how many people in Yuezhou thank her?" The old housekeeper sighed, "Everything, it's too much, she can defend Yucheng and suppress Yanlong, but she shouldn't destroy Yanlongchang alone, Third Prince, do you say yes?" β
"Maybe she had to do it." Lin Xi lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in his eyes, this old housekeeper was really a master.
"If she can't keep it, and others go to help, her reputation may not be greater, but if she can keep her cultivation, it will be better than now." The old housekeeper smiled bitterly, "She only knows how to cultivate, not how to be sophisticated, I asked the Ji family to rescue her, to help Yucheng rebuild, and leave a way back for herself......"
"As a result, she became the lord of Yucheng herself." Lin Xi also smiled.
"Yes, but is the city lord of Yucheng so easy to be? The Yu family has been in Yucheng for hundreds of years, where can she shake it, even if she rebuilds Yucheng and offends the Yu family, where can she go back? The old housekeeper looked dejected, "Miss is just too real, and this will harm others and herself." β
"It doesn't matter, as long as you marry into the Lin family, these are not problems." Lin Xi didn't mind Ji Weiliang's character, all he needed was Ji Weiliang's status and reputation in Yuezhou.
"It's a pity that Miss is too young and naΓ―ve to know what's best for her." The old housekeeper pulled out a smile, "If it weren't for the third son, I wouldn't have thought of any way out for the young lady." β
"Why not." Lin Xi didn't seem to care, but in fact, he was also thinking about his own gains and losses.
"Miss Jindan is broken and not dead, it is a great luck, but in the future, it will be a betrayal and need elixir to support the body, the Ji family definitely does not have that ability, even Yucheng is unsustainable, if the young lady marries to Dongzhou, the old slave is willing to be liver and brain, and only ask the third prince to treat my young lady well." The old butler knelt on the ground and kowtowed, a clear heart, which was touching.
"Old housekeeper, please get up, as long as she enters the door of my Lin family, I will naturally not treat her badly." Lin Xi hurriedly picked up the old housekeeper and said sincerely.
"Third son, please rest assured, I have arranged everything here in Tongcheng, the young lady is quiet and doesn't like to be noisy, as long as no one disturbs, she won't go out at will."
