Chapter Seventy-Five: Who Is the One Who Eavesdropped?
Zhu Di shook his head helplessly.
"We have long heard that there is a group of shadow guards in Penglai County, whose origin is unknown, but they will never rob their homes."
"At first, we were still thinking about whether these people were in the palace or in the rivers and lakes, until the selection of the Oiran, when we saw Na Yunsheng, we knew that these shadow guards were all from Penglai County, to put it bluntly, it was to protect the safety of Penglai County."
Jiang Ci's eyes rolled slightly, but there was still no expression on his face.
He just stared at Zhu Di and Ji Gang very calmly, listening to the two of them tell about this matter.
If you just look at his expression, you can't help but wonder if this matter really has nothing to do with him.
But Jiang Ci is facing Zhu Di, and Zhu Di will not blow himself up without finding out the truth.
"We have secretly probed many times, and it is true that you Penglai County has no practice of collecting power behind your back, but we have also discovered you, a you who is not in our sight."
Jiang Ci chuckled, he lowered his head slightly, the broken hair on his forehead covered his eyes, and Zhu Di and Ji Gang couldn't see his expression clearly.
"It's true that I'm not in the sight of you people, but it's precisely because of this that I won't be noticeable, and I can better protect him if I come to protect the master."
Jiang Ci spoke slowly, his voice seemed a little weird in the middle of the night, Zhu Di frowned slightly and turned his head to look at Ji Gang on the side.
But Ji Gang's face was also dazed.
Neither of them knew Jiang Ci well enough, and they didn't know why Jiang Ci suddenly spoke in such a weird tone.
"That, is there anything we don't know about between you and Xu Zilin, otherwise why do you want to protect him so much?"
Under the encouragement of Zhu Di's eyes, Ji Gang opened his mouth and asked Jiang Ci.
After Jiang Ci was silent for a long time, he slowly told the two of them his story.
He told the two of them how he was bullied when he was a child, and how he was saved by Xu Zilin and brought with him.
Although Jiang Ci didn't say much, Zhu Di and Ji Gang also listened with very complicated feelings.
"We didn't think you were living like that."
After Jiang Ci finished speaking, Zhu Di opened his mouth and said to Jiang Ci with some shame.
It's just that Jiang Ci doesn't think that Zhu Di has anything to apologize or feel sorry for.
"These things have existed for a long, long time, of course you people in the capital will not understand so clearly, not enough I think that these things must also happen in the more remote places of the capital, if you are really for the people, it is better to have a little bit of attention to these things."
Jiang Ci said, slowly standing up.
Zhu Di looked up at Jiang Ci who stood up in front of him with some confusion.
"Are you leaving?"
Jiang Ci nodded slightly.
He turned his head to look at the window behind Zhu Di.
There was nothing unusual in the window, but Jiang Ci always felt that someone was eavesdropping around for some reason.
So Jiang Ci didn't continue to say anything to Zhu Di and them that they shouldn't say, but while saying that he was leaving, he gestured to the two to show that he felt that someone was eavesdropping.
Zhu Di was taken aback, and then turned his head to look at Ji Gang.
Ji Gang was also stunned in place, he didn't feel that there were people eavesdropping around him at all.
But Jiang Ci's expression was so serious, people couldn't help but believe what he said very much.
The two of them didn't say anything, they just watched Jiang Ci slowly withdraw outside the house, and then closed the door.
And Jiang Ci didn't go far after leaving, he turned around and walked into Zhu Di's room.
If this person has the courage to show up, with Ji Gang and Jiang Ci here, they can guarantee that they will definitely be able to catch this person!
"Master, is Jiang Ci's words credible?"
After a while, a voice came from Ji Gang's room again.
This was a ploy that the three of them had just come up with.
If someone really eavesdropped, then he would not have left so easily.
Zhu Di and Ji Gang led him out.
"Jiang Ci has always been by Xu Zilin's side, he must know a lot of things, but we can't believe all his words, but we can't believe it either."
Zhu Di said slowly.
I have to say that the sound insulation of this house is really not good, Jiang Ci can hear the sound next door when he stands by the wall, and the sound is still very loud.
"Master, Jiang Ci won't lie to us, after all, he hopes that we will protect Xu Zilin when he enters the palace in the future."
"It's hard to say, if there is something Xu Zilin that is not suitable for everyone to know, he will not tell us, but we have to find a way to turn the shadow guard behind him into our own use."
"The shadow guards are loyal to Penglai County, they are for the people of Penglai, how can we let them be used by us?"
Zhu Di chuckled.
"Of course there is a way, it depends on whether they want to or not."
As Zhu Di's words fell, there was movement from the window behind him.
Zhu Di noticed the movement behind him, and quickly turned to look at the window behind him.
"Who?"
Ji Gang grabbed the long sword at his waist and looked at the window in a calm voice.
"Don't get excited, I'm the person you want to use for yourself, didn't you still want to see me just now, why am I so nervous now?"
A woman's voice came from the window, followed by a woman in a black nightcoat who rolled in through the window.
And Jiang Ci, who was in the next room, also heard the woman's voice, which was indeed his subordinate.
"Who are you?"
Zhu Di asked the woman quietly.
The woman was not in a hurry, after entering the room, she looked Zhu Di and Ji Gang in front of her up and down, and then sat on the stool in front of them.
"Didn't you say just now, you want to see me, I'm from the shadow guard."
As she spoke, the woman picked up a cup from the table and poured herself a cup of tea.
"The people of the shadow guard will not appear here, they will always guard the county order, their most important task is to guard Penglai County, guard the county order, isn't it."
Zhu Di chuckled, to be honest, he believed the woman's words, and he had already seen that the other party was indeed the person of the shadow guard.
But he was more willing to deceive the woman in front of him.
The woman raised her eyes to look at Zhu Di and Ji Gang in front of her, and after she raised her head and drank the water in her hand, she stood up and walked towards the two.
"My name is Wen Jing, and I am the head of the shadow guard, so it can be said that except for Jiang Ci, I am the boss."
The woman's tone was too arrogant, this was Zhu Di's first reaction when he heard this.
But then, he suddenly realized something and was stunned.
"You said, except for Jiang Ci, you are the boss, does Jiang Ci know this?"
Wen Jing laughed, and she nodded at Zhu Di.
"Of course he knew, and that's what he told me."
