Chapter 136: The Danger of Lancheng

Ji Xiang calculated the critical illness of Baili Lian, and had already let the dead ambush on the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion, just waiting for him to order to enter the City Lord's Mansion to seize the position of the City Lord, his success or failure was here, as for Ji Qingyuan's back road, he had already planned.

Lu Ziqian was ordered to wait for Ji Xiang's good news or bad news in Ji Mansion. If there is good news, he will think about one more step for himself in the future, and he is not afraid of bad news, the carriage to leave Lancheng has been prepared outside the city gate, Baili Lian is not stupid and will definitely come to Ji Mansion to arrest him, and it is the best policy for him to leave directly.

Don't say that he is ruthless and unrighteous, he just did what he had to do, and people don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, not to mention that the ruthless and unrighteous person is Ji Xiang, the two of them just use each other and take what they need, there is no need to live and die together.

Ji Xiang entered the city lord's mansion on the pretext of visiting the patient, Ji Qingyuan was indeed not in the mansion, and the subordinates said in a unified voice that it was for the young city lord's illness to search for famous doctors, but what the truth was, Ji Xiang was afraid that he knew better than anyone else, and he didn't break it, pretending to be stuffed in the dark.

Feng Yu was surprisingly sad, and stepped forward to greet Ji Xiang to stay, saying that Ji Qingyuan would return in a few days.

Ji Xiang followed behind Feng Yu, with an unpredictable expression on his face, "How is the young city lord these days?" โ€

Feng Yu sighed and said, "Alas, day by day, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for the young lady to return home." โ€

"The doctor said that there is any way to cure it, the young city lord is still so young, he is really jealous of the talent." Ji Xiang pretended to sigh and felt sorry for Baili Lian.

"A good person, somehow fell ill, the doctors in the city asked all over the time, but none of them could see what kind of illness the young city lord had, and the young lady was also in a hurry, so she went out of the city to find a famous doctor."

"I see, I said how could Kite be willing to leave the young city lord at this critical juncture. Kite is also affectionate and righteous to him, and I don't regret marrying her to the young city lord. โ€

"It's rare that Master Ji understands righteousness." Feng Yu sneered in her heart, old fox, the play was real.

"The young city lord is so sick, when will the old city lord come back?" Baili Lian's death plan is mostly completed, and Baili is the other half, and it would be better if he could clean up the two of them together this time.

"We haven't known the whereabouts of the old city lord yet, and the people sent out are also trying their best to find it, you also know that the old city lord has always been in a state of seclusion, how easy it is to find him, if you really can't see the last face, it is also the life of the young city lord." Oh, I still want to harm the old city lord, but fortunately, the news of Baili Lian's long-term illness was only deliberately revealed to the spies, and the people in the city did not know about it, so the matter did not spread outside the city.

During the conversation, the two entered the Qixia Courtyard, and the servant was coming out of Baili Lian's house with a medicine bowl, and the windows and doors outside the house were all wrapped in black cloth, and the light could not be seen.

"This ยทยทยทยทยท" Ji Xiang was puzzled by this strange behavior and turned his head to look at Feng Yu.

"I'm not afraid of Master Ji's jokes, the doctor in the city can't cure the young city lord's illness, we can only go off the rails and invite a ghost exorcism Taoist priest for the young city lord, this is what the Taoist priest ordered, saying that it is the cause of the young city lord's demons, and he can't see the light." Feng Yu's acting skills are better, and she is very careful when she says it.

Ji Xiang couldn't laugh in his heart, he couldn't imagine that Baili Lian's illness had reached this field, and he was stupid to exorcise ghosts and Taoist priests. However, whatever they do, the damned will die sooner or later.

"Master Ji, the smell of medicine in the house is strong, and I hope to ......"

"Needless to say, I understand." Ji Xiang waved his hand.

Feng Yu gently pushed open the door, and Ji Xiang followed into the house. As soon as he entered the house, Feng Yu closed the door. There was only one candle lit in the house, and the whole room could be said to be airtight, and the smell of medicine was so thick that it choked the mouth and nose.

Ji Xiang couldn't help frowning, raised his sleeve and covered his nose, this room is for people, the air is not circulating, the smell of medicine is heavy, and it seems to be mixed with some other smells, which makes people's stomachs surge.

Baili Lian lay weakly on the sickbed, breathing heavily, as if he was asleep, his cheeks were not as rosy as before, and he began to sunken, describing it as withered, and it seemed that he couldn't hold on for a few days.

Feng Yu had been secretly observing Ji Xiang's demeanor, and was a little relieved when she saw the smile in his eyes, and finally deceived him, wronged the young city lord for not eating or drinking for a few days.

"Young City Lord, Master Ji has come to see you." Feng Yu quickly approached the bed and shouted softly.

"I've seen the young city lord." Ji Xiang didn't step forward, and bent down on the spot to salute.

Baili Lian slowly opened his heavy eyelids, looking at the person in front of him with great effort, his pale and chapped lips opened slightly, and his voice was very small and a little floating. "I've seen my father-in-law."

Seeing him struggling to get up, Ji Xiang hurriedly said: "The young city lord is sick, there is no need to stick to red tape, his body is important." โ€

Baili Lian nodded lightly, and suddenly lay down again.

"I haven't heard from Kite for a few days, so I'll come to see if something has happened to her, but I don't want to be the young city lord who is sick. The young city lord can rest assured that Kite will definitely find a miracle doctor for the young city lord when she goes out this time, and I hope that the young city lord will hold on for her for some more time. โ€

"Well, I'll wait for her." Baili Lian seemed too tired after saying a few words, and his eyelids began to close quietly.

Feng Yu hurriedly said: "Master Ji go out with me, don't disturb the young city lord's rest." โ€

"It's okay, there will be more opportunities to meet in the future, don't rush it." Everything was as he expected, and Ji Xiang didn't want to stay for a long time, and said yes again and again.

When the door was closed, Bai Li Lian on the couch suddenly opened his eyes, not at all like the previous sickness, his eyes were shrewd and abnormal. It's time for the fish to take the bait. He and Ji Xiang finally came to the day of your life and death.

As soon as Ji Xiang stepped out of the house, the corners of his mouth inadvertently hooked, God help me, he is one step closer to the position of the city lord. After twenty years of sowing the net, it is finally about to be withdrawn.

Feng Yu followed behind Ji Xiang, his eyes staring at Ji Xiang's back, old fox, as long as he dared to move, the City Lord's Mansion would be his burial place.

Ji Xiang was in a good mood, and his walking steps were brisker. After sending Ji Xiang to the guest room, Feng Yu then left to go to the study to meet Huang Xiao.

"It seems that Ji Xiang can't wait." Baili Lian was sick in bed for a few days, and the study belonged to Feng Yu and Huang Xiao, and the two of them handled the affairs of the city for a few days on behalf of Baili Lian in the study. Most of the time Huang Xiao is still there, and Feng Yu can't sit for long at all.

Huang Xiao was sitting at Baili Lian's desk and reading when he saw Feng Yu enter the room and put down the brush and said, "When do you think he will do it?" โ€

"I'm not a roundworm in his stomach, how do I know." Feng Yu snorted, turned around and fell on the chair, cocked Erlang's legs, and sat in a sitting position.

Huang Xiao said in a deep voice: "Since you dare to come to the City Lord's Mansion, it means that everything has been arranged for him." You go outside the house to find out how many people he has brought with him. โ€

"I've run enough in the past few days, you're idle, why don't you explore this time," Feng Yu rested her right hand on her knee and leaned forward, "I'll come and see the paperwork." โ€

Huang Xiao paused and said, "Yes." โ€

Before he could get up, Feng Yu jumped up from the chair all of a sudden, "Don't don't, I'm joking, I don't want to be in front of something that makes my head swell all day." You can rest assured here, and I'll go outside. He picked up the long sword on the table and flashed out.
