Chapter 59: Put to death
Ji Yuexi came back, with the small wooden box given by Master Wuxin.
suddenly found that every time she returned to Ji's house, it was always quiet, and she had the impression that such a situation had only happened twice, both after she came back from outside.
Every time, Ji Zhengrong was furious, and then ended in failure.
Now she misses Ji Zhengrong's angry expression a little.
In the past, he lived cautiously, and his mind was full of pictures of being bullied by the Ji family, and Ji Yuexi was naturally unconvinced.
She is so proud, so naturally she wants to get back all the previous suffering.
One does not fall.
The small side courtyard where I live is near the side door, and this time I came back and found that something was wrong.
Taught to be careful with everything since she was a child, she has become accustomed to doing small details when she goes out.
For example, the location of doors and windows, and the gravel at your feet.
There are all kinds of indications that someone entered the courtyard when she left.
Of course, there are some valuable things in the yard, most of which were given by Chi Jingyu, and she bought them casually on the street that day.
And the Ji family knows the relationship between King Ding and her, so they will definitely not be a demon here.
What is it for?
Ji Yuexi pushed the door in the box, only to find that something was wrong.
Lily!
They took the lily away!
She thought before that Chi Jingyu's relationship with her was still there, so the people of the Ji family would not treat the people around her like this.
That palm was also discussed with the wind, and it would only make Lily sleep for a day, and she would be able to get up when she came back for treatment.
It's okay for her to risk herself, but she can't risk Lily's life.
Not to mention that she doesn't have the ability to protect Lily yet, so she doesn't let Lily go on adventures with her.
When did an ordinary maid become a thorn in their eye and a nail in their flesh?
Did you even use such a despicable and shameless trick to deal with her!
Ji Yuexi, who originally thought that he would not panic, began to tremble with his hands holding the box at this moment.
If something really happened to Lily, she wouldn't be able to spare herself!
Without any hesitation, she directly put down the box in her hand, glanced around, and finally picked up the silver needle she liked that day, and went directly to the main hall of the Ji Mansion.
Sure enough, there was a group of people here, as always.
Ji Zhengrong would have heard the news of her death, and now he was waiting for Ji Yuexi to appear in this room.
finally waited for Ji Yuexi to appear.
As always, she is no longer the cowardly look, her posture is unruly, and the arrogance of her eyebrows and eyes is proving one thing to everyone here.
Now it's not what it used to be, and she's no longer the Wuxia Amon.
"Where's Lily?"
Ji Yuexi opened her mouth, and the scene suddenly turned cold, just like she was the master of this family, everyone was her foil.
She didn't have a stick like she had before, and it seemed that she had scared people with her weapons a few times before, and these people had already hidden the weapons that were everywhere in the house.
Now that she only has a pack of silver needles in her hand, Ji Yuexi smiled, they must not know that there is still a lot of stock in her inner pocket.
But it doesn't matter, the silver needle in her hand can also show off.
Before she could show the weapon in her hand, Ji Zhengrong in front of her began to be arrogant.
Seeing that Ji Yuexi really appeared here for a maid, she immediately understood how important Lily was to her.
As long as he pinched this "dead hole", he would be able to make Ji Yuexi successfully listen to him.
No one understands these things better than Ji Zhengrong, and understands these insidious things in the court better.
In his mind, he already looked like Ji Yuexi had fallen into his hands and was at his disposal.
"Ji Yuexi, do you still know to come back?"
At this time, Ji Zhengrong spoke arrogantly and found the sense of dignity that he used to be the head of the family.
Ji Yuexi has changed too much these days, which has caused him to feel inferior all the time, and he is even submissive in the court, for fear that Ji Yuexi will really cause trouble, so he will serve his Ji Mansion in one pot.
"Why don't I know?" Ji Yuexi looked at his arrogance and only felt funny.
Unhurriedly, he took out the silver needle in his hand and showed it in front of Ji Zhengrong, "It's still King Ding who personally sent me back, wouldn't Lord Ji know?" β
At this moment, she doesn't call Ji Zhengrong a father anymore, she is not familiar with him in the first place, let alone that he is going to kill himself now.
On the way back, Chi Jingyu told her that these people were invited by the third aunt, how could a singer who was ransomed by Ji Zhengrong have so much money, how could he want to put her to death?
Naturally, there is someone behind to support her, and Ji Yuexi feels that she can't find a second person who can support her except Ji Zhengrong.
The Ji family is like a small palace, everyone follows Ji Zhengrong as one, unlike her who has a heart of resistance.
He must also know the whole process of buying the murderer.
Speaking of Chi Jingyu, Ji Zhengrong thought of the scene where Chi Jingyu was fooled today, and was annoyed for a while.
"You cheap hoof, when did you hook up with the king! I'm defenseless......"
Ji Zhengrong almost told him about buying the murderer, but fortunately, the third aunt woke him up next to him.
The court officials actually bought murder, and it was still his own daughter, and he would never be contaminated with this stain, and he had no idea about all this to the outside world.
If he was found out, he would have already thrown the pot on the third aunt's body, and he could pick it up himself.
The third aunt knows this better than anyone else.
Now only by killing Ji Yuexi can he be truly safe.
Three thousand taels of silver per head, which is also a big expense for the Ji Mansion, has not been able to take the life of this scourge.
Halfway through the words, Ji Yuexi became more interested in the content behind.
Since the other party didn't tell the whole story, she didn't mind making up the rest at all.
"It seems that I didn't get the good news of the killer, and seeing me appear, Lord Ji should be very uncomfortable, right?"
Ji Yuexi smiled, wearing a veil, she couldn't see how the corners of her mouth were raised, but she could see from her eyebrows what the word "flamboyant" was.
Ji Zhengrong, who was guessed to be thinking, couldn't help but pinch his heart.
He thought that Ji Yuexi was still in the dark, but he didn't expect that she already knew the truth.
Thinking that there was Chi Jingyu behind her, Ji Zhengrong was even more worried.
"Y-What nonsense are you...... This official is upright, how can he ......"
After being pinched on his shortcomings, Ji Zhengrong began to be unfavorable even when he spoke, for fear that if one of his words slipped out, the matter would be pierced.
In the middle of speaking, he stopped in an interesting way, so as not to be suspected of covering his ears and stealing the bell.
Ji Zhengrong's sense of precaution is very high, and Ji Yuexi knows that he can't speak anyway, so he stopped talking and said the news he wanted to know.
"Without further ado, now tell me where Lily is."
The only thing that can be guaranteed now is that the lily is safe.
If the other party wants to use Lily to blackmail her, he will naturally ensure Lily's survival, so that Ji Yuexi can listen to them honestly.
"If you want to know her whereabouts, you'll have to trade something for it."
"What? The dignified Lord Ji, the third-grade official, even used this kind of indiscriminate means to threaten people? β
Ji Yuexi walked in his direction unhurriedly, his eyebrows were frivolous, and his tone was very disdainful.
This trick, Ji Yuexi has been threatened before, and now he will not make a second foolishness.
She is indeed reluctant to give up Lily, but it does not mean that she can let the other party fiddle.
"Lily is from my Ji Mansion, I still have her slave status in my hand, she signed a death contract, and my life is naturally up to me!"
This reason is serious and in line with the current situation, and when he speaks, he is naturally extraordinary.
It's like pinching Ji Yuexi's seven inches, and he has completely become the winner.
didn't realize that Ji Yuexi had already walked into his side, picked up a silver needle, and stabbed directly at the acupuncture points on Ji Zhengrong's face.
She is a peerless medical drug, and what she wants is to be fast and accurate, without a trace of hesitation.
Straight to the point, as she does now.
originally thought that if she pretended to be stupid, the people of the Ji family would be less violent, and they would not make such a poisonous threat.
She was completely wrong, they were originally eating human blood, and they didn't think about these things at all, but what to exchange for the benefits they wanted.
Now it is because Ji Yuexi has touched their interests that he will completely expose his dirty lining.
"W-What is this!"
Ji Zhengrong only felt that his whole face was numb, and even his expression was uncontrollably stiff.
He looked at Ji Yuexi without any weapons this time, and thought that she was a good girl who was at the mercy of others.
The moment the silver needle was revealed, my heart was half cold.
"Naturally, it's something that can hide from your life, a stick of incense, put the lily in front of me honestly, otherwise don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."
"You, you actually endangered the officials of the imperial court! I'm ......."
"What if you're an official of the third grade? Let me ask Lord Ji, do you have real power? β
Ji Yuexi interrupted him with a sneer.
This official position was still begged for by Ji Zhengrong, how could she not know?
With the help of her marriage contract with Chi Xingyu to get back face, the emperor made an exception in order to prevent his son's fiancΓ©e's father from being an inferior official.
Is Zhengrong really a character this season?
Take what her mother exchanged for her life, enjoy these glory and wealth, and she doesn't even know how to be grateful!
Thinking of this, Ji Yuexi got angry, and the anger of the original owner doubled her anger, and she really wanted to tear the scumbag on the spot.
Ji Zhengrong was indeed afraid of death, and when he was threatened by interrupting himself, he suddenly felt a tingling pain in his arm.
When I looked down, I found that a silver needle had been inserted into my arm.
When the hell did this demon girl do the poison!
The whole arm is numb! Ji Zhengrong suddenly panicked, and hurriedly beckoned the people next to him.
"Hurry up and get the lily!"
As soon as the words fell, he was held down by the third aunt, "Master! Cannot! β
Things have come to such a tense scene, the third aunt still wants to take down Ji Yuexi, and feels that Ji Yuexi will not harm Ji Zhengrong.
It's a pity that she forgot that Ji Zhengrong is a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and she can't bear the threat to her life at all.
Immediately shook off her hand and said angrily: "Go and get me Lily!" β
