Ji Li's sudden appearance surprised Tian Xiaotong. She mistakenly thought that her deeds were exposed, and subconsciously asked Mu Xiaoxue and others to block Lu Yi's possible retreat.

Lu Yi hugged the box, was stunned at first, and took a closer look at Ji Li's face, her expression was instantly shocked, and she was so frightened that she couldn't say a word.

Li Kecun on the side didn't notice the danger at all, and seemed very relaxed, because he had seen Ji Yu in the cabin, and Niu Shao told him at that time that this was an old servant in Tian Xiaotong's mansion.

So, Li Kecun only thought that he was an old servant because he was reluctant to stop the night pearl. He explained to Lu Yi as clever: "He is an old servant in the girl's mansion, and he must be reluctant to give him the night pearl that the master gave to his eldest lady." ”

Then, Li Kecun turned back to Tian Xiaotong and said, "Girl, quickly let your old servant get out of the way and let the chief manager go out." Don't delay the manager and your business. ”

Tian Xiaotong ignored Li Kecun's words and quietly looked at Ji Li and Lu Yi, she wanted to know how things would develop next.

Lu Yi did not relax because of Li Kecun's words, but took a few steps back, sweat flowing down his forehead.

"Lu Yi is doing a good job! Now he is actually the head of the Chen Palace. Ji Yu finally raised his voice, "Well done official!"

"Island ~ Island owner, you don't ~ not disappear. Lu Yi spit out these words with difficulty.

"Island master?" Li Kecun finally sensed the danger, looked around, and sadly found that all possible retreats had been locked up. When he heard Lu Yi's words, he was also taken aback.

Ji Li said straight to the point: "I'm back, ready to get back everything I lost." You have two options, one is to continue to be loyal to those two wolf-hearted things, and there is only one ending, death! After the deed is completed, the Pearl of the Night and the treasures you have looted before are all yours. Then you get out of the island and be your rich man in peace from now on. ”

Lu Yi was sweating with fear, and after a short exchange of thoughts, he knelt down and said: "My subordinates are willing to help the island owner restore the throne, and I just want to be able to leave the island after the matter is completed." ”

Ji Yu raised his head, didn't look at Lu Yi, and said, "Very good, then you tell me now, what happened to Zhao Chen Palace." ”

Lu Yi knelt down and said: "The young master has been singing every night since he succeeded as the owner of the island, and now he is terminally ill. The two assistants have not yet discussed a suitable successor, so they have to hide the matter from the outside world. ”

"Hmph, you greedy guy. Tian Xiaotong realized that he had been deceived, and took the case, "I almost fell for your evil deeds, see that I don't kill you." With that, he rushed towards Lu Yi, but fortunately Ling Xuanshuang grabbed her in time.

Ji Li asked, "Since that's the case, why do you want to come?"

Lu Yizhan replied tremblingly: "Just because I heard Li Kecun say that the girl's family has a lot of money." The subordinates had crooked thoughts and wanted to blackmail a sum of money. ”

Ji Li glanced at Lu Yi, her eyes were full of disappointment, after so many years, Lu Yi was still so unproductive. Shaking his head helplessly, he turned his eyes to Tian Xiaotong to see how she dealt with it.

The situation has changed significantly, and the original plan is no longer executable. Tian Xiaotong cleaned up his complicated mood and said, "Lu Yi, you go back now as if you are fine." After I go back, I want you to do two things, one is to steal a copy of the prescription that Ji Cong was taking. The second is to find out who Shi Zhao and Pan Yu support. Notify us as soon as you get the information. ”

Lu Yi didn't agree immediately, but glanced at Ji Yu.

Ji Li said: "Whatever the girl says, you can do it." ”

"My subordinates have all remembered, please rest assured. Lu Yi accepted it all.

Tian Xiaotong said: "Okay, you can go." ”

Lu Yi got up and wanted to leave, but suddenly thought of the night pearl in her arms, and stopped again. turned around and looked at Tian Xiaotong with a sneer. He finally figured it out, the old island owner must have used the girl's strength to reset, and as long as Tian Xiaotong agrees to some things, Ji Jiao will not object.

Tian Xiaotong understood what Lu Yi meant, and said, "Uncle Shi said that after the matter is completed, the pearl of the night will be yours, so you can take it away." As long as there is no second heart for us, it will always be yours. ”

"Hey, my subordinates have retired. Lu Yi left happily, regardless of Li Kecun's life or death.

As soon as Lu Yi left, Li Kecun knelt down and begged: "Girl, I am old and young, please be merciful and let me go." I~ When I go back, I will definitely return all the jewels you gave me. ”

Tian Xiaotong smiled: "You get up, I didn't say I wanted to kill you." You go back now and act as if none of this happened. You don't see anything, you hear. ”

"Thank you, girl, I've never been here. Li Kecun stood up with all his strength and left the room trembling.

Mu Xiaoxue looked fierce and persuaded: "Li Kecun knows too much, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to keep it." ”

"It's okay, I'll need his help later. Tian Xiaotong's words changed, "We will leave this inn immediately, Mu Xiaoxue is responsible for arranging people to stay behind and monitor, and the rest of the people will change inns with me in case of accidents." ”

Tian Xiaotong doesn't trust Lu Yi, which is also reasonable. She was always cautious, and immediately changed to an inn. The new inn was located southeast by the sea, far from the dock where its own ships docked. And Tian Xiaotong's room is on the second floor of the inn, and the window is facing the sea.

The crowd had been busy all afternoon, and when it was almost evening, they were finally done. In the new guest room, Tian Xiaotong was standing at the window, looking at the sea as the night darkened. Listen to the roar of the sea and think about the next step.

Mu Xiaoxue, who was behind Tian Xiaotong, couldn't help but say after staying for a long time: "Miss, isn't it too cautious?" I don't think that Lu Yi dared to betray us, why move so far. ”

"Be careful everywhere, and don't worry ten times. Once careless, it's all over. Tian Xiaotong frowned, "I didn't expect the trip to the island to be full of twists and turns, I really don't know when I will be able to complete the task assigned by my father." ”

Mu Xiaoxue said with relief: "Miss, please rest assured, with Lu Yi as the internal response, we will definitely complete it soon." ”

At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

Mu Xiaoxue asked, "Who is knocking on the door?"

Rui Hansheng's voice came from outside the door, "Shen Zaixing and Qin Xuanjie were ordered to inquire about the information and came back, and they were outside the door, wanting to see the eldest lady." ”

Mu Xiaoxue saw Tian Xiaotong nodding in permission, so she shouted, "You let them in." ”

Tian Xiaotong sat on the stool next to the round table and waited for them to come in.

"Miss, we're back. Shen Zaixing and Qin Xuanjie dressed as people and bowed their hands.

Tian Xiaotong asked, "What did you gain this time?"

Shen Zaixing replied: "This time, we found out an amazing piece of news from the guards of the Chen Palace, Ji Cong is afraid that he will not survive for these two days. ”

Regarding the news that Ji Cong is terminally ill, he has long been mentally prepared. But when I heard my subordinates say that they only had a day or two of work, they would return to the west. Tian Xiaotong was very skeptical and asked, "Have you confirmed the authenticity of this news?"

Qin Xuanjie replied: "My subordinates have confirmed it. It was also a fluke that we inadvertently discovered that a large number of doctors were summoned to the Chen Palace for various reasons. Later, we arrested a doctor who came out of Zhaochen Palace and tried every means to pry his mouth open, only to learn that Ji Cong was terminally ill and his life was on the verge of death. ”

Shen Zaixing answered: "We were afraid that there would be fraud in it, so we arrested another doctor." The comparison between the two proves that what is said is true. Ji Cong was already ill, and his condition suddenly deteriorated sharply in the afternoon, and the two assistants urgently summoned the doctors into the palace, and at the same time issued a strict order requiring the doctors to keep their mouths shut. ”

As if to fulfill Shen Zaixing's news, there were sudden bursts of hurried footsteps on the street. Tian Xiaotong and the others went out to take a look, and they were guarded by soldiers along the way. A horse galloped through the streets, loudly proclaiming: "Martial law is enforced on this island, and pedestrians are allowed to go home and not go out." ”

The sound reached Tian Xiaotong's ears from far and near. I saw an officer embroidered with the word "Zuo" on his chest, and from the eyes of Tian Xiaotong and others, the horse roared past.

"Sae Du!" Tian Xiaotong sensed that something was wrong, and immediately ordered to go down, and let her subordinates immediately gather in her room to discuss the big plan together.

In the face of sudden changes, how should Tian Xiaotong have no bottom in his heart, so he can only take one step at a time.
