It just so happened that the Cedar Yard also needed to purchase things, so Ji Man went to Qian Lianxue's again after leaving the old lady's place, and took notes of all the things she needed, and brought them back together.
Qian Lianxue covered her mouth and coughed, looked at her for a long time, and asked, "Madam, do you go out to buy it yourself?"
Ji Man nodded with a smile: "It's best to do everything by yourself, even the maids around you make mistakes, don't they?"
Dan Zhu stood behind Qian Lianxue, her eyelids twitched slightly.
She is obviously admitting that she was the one who knocked Danzhu out, and she took the things away.
Qian Lianxue's expression was a little unnatural, and she handed over the list to Ji Man, who smiled and got up, took the wick and left.
Now she is equivalent to hanging a sign on Qian Lianxue, with the words "You come to kill me" written on it.
Ji Man went back to Feiwan Pavilion to make arrangements, and left the lamp wick in Feiwan Pavilion to keep watch. At night, she secretly went to Ning Yuxuan's study and invited him to go shopping together tomorrow.
"Do you think I'm free enough to be a housekeeper recently?" Ning Yuxuan was slightly displeased: "You also need to call me when you go shopping? I'm very busy."
Ji Man smiled sweetly, and shook his hand from side to side: "The streets are not peaceful recently, I'll go alone, what if something happens?"
"Then let others go, don't go." Ning Yuxuan pursed her lips.
Men no matter they are ancient or modern, they all hate shopping with women. Imitating the gentle appearance, Ji Man twisted her body into a twist: "It's rare that I'm in the mood, so you can go with me."
She could feel that Ning Yuxuan had been gentler towards her recently. A woman's biggest asset is a man's indulgence and soft-heartedness. She used to have gentleness, but she didn't use it properly. Now she also sees some signs of it, so naturally she has to make good use of it.
Ning Yuxuan was so entangled that he waved his hands impatiently: "Understood, you go back to your Feiwan Pavilion first, and I will wait for you at the back door tomorrow."
She knew that this person must be sneaky again, which was very in line with her wishes. Satisfied, Ji Man obediently returned to Feiwan Pavilion.
Gui Bai stood aside, seeing the serious expression on Hou Ye's face, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you want to bring more people tomorrow?"
"No need." Ning Yuxuan shook his head and said annoyedly, "But I'm going shopping with that woman, what should I wear?"
His clothes are all extremely luxurious, and it's no wonder that he doesn't get stared at like a monkey when he wears them out and walks on the street.
Gui Bai didn't expect him to be troubled by this, so he couldn't help laughing lightly: "If Lord Hou doesn't mind, this subordinate has a new set of clothes, which are very common, so you can wear them first for Lord Hou."
"Okay." Ning Yuxuan loosened his eyebrows, looked at the letter from the prince on the table, and returned it with a pen.
The next day, Ji Man was at the back door, and she brought two rough servants to help carry things. There was a house slave driving a carriage, so she was happy and relaxed, so she just went up and sat down.
Opening the curtain, I saw Ning Yuxuan's impatient face, holding the list and looking at it: "Why are there so many things?"
There are not many things, how can I let her stay outside for a while? Ji Man smiled slightly. She came out with bodyguards, so she naturally knew what was going on, and she was not afraid of anything. Even if she dies, she will die with Ning Yuxuan. From this point of view, Nie Sangyu can't count her mission as a failure.
She wore a bright green dress today, and she looked a lot more lively. The skirt was not expensive, it was just ordinary clothes, and it matched Ning Yuxuan's ordinary green clothes quite well.
As soon as Ji Man left the mansion, a house slave came out and followed the carriage all the way.
"This thing is not worth fifty taels, ten taels is about the same." Jiman said pickily holding a vase in the ceramic antique shop.
There are various vases and utensils on the shelf in front of them. The bottles are thin and transparent, and they are all top grade.
Ji Man is now looking at a fiery red vase and is bargaining for the price. But Ning Yuxuan felt that she had cut the price too hard.
The business in the store seemed to be getting better since they came in, and many people followed in to look around.
Mo Yuhou stood behind Ji Man silently.
Those individuals followed them all the way, from the flower garden to the main street and then to this antique shop, he has always had a good memory of people, even though these people changed their robes specially.
Looking at the woman in front of her who was carrying a vase without realizing it, Ning Yuxuan smiled inwardly, she was really clever, and pulled him into trouble again.
The shopkeeper looked at Ji Man with a bitter face and said, "Madam, this vase is an antique, ten taels of silver is absolutely impossible."
Ji Man wanted to say more, but the antique shelf in front of him suddenly shook for some reason. It seemed that someone accidentally bumped into it, and the whole shelf suddenly fell towards Ji Man.
Countless antique porcelain fell to the ground, and fragments were scattered everywhere. Ning Yuxuan gritted his teeth to block the fallen shelf, but Ji Man curled up in front of his chest, looking sharply at the people next to him.
"careful!"
The shopkeeper in the shop was screaming, but the people behind them had already drawn out their daggers and came straight towards Ji Man.
"What are you doing standing there, shopkeeper? Hurry up and report to the police!" Ji Man shouted, pushing Ning Yuxuan away from the range where the shelf fell, and the room was filled with dust in an instant. The daggers of several people brushed against her body, scaring her to hide in Ning Yuxuan's arms.
"You are a disaster." Mo Yuhou said angrily.
Ji Man pouted, she was very innocent.
He scooped up his body, took it with him, rushed out of the antique shop, and landed on the main street. Many people on the street stopped to watch when they heard such a big commotion here.
Three or four men with daggers chased them out, and threw themselves on Ning Yuxuan desperately. Ning Yuxuan protected the people behind him, conveniently pulled the wooden sticks from the small stalls on the street, covered the dagger and let out a low voice: "Ghost Bai!"
Not far from the carriage parked, Gui Bai quickly ran over, took Ji Man who was thrown by Mo Yuhou, and protected him from the crowd.
It's a bit reluctant to fight three people, not to mention the four on the opposite side, all with knives in their hands. These people didn't seem to know who he was, they just felt that it was in the way, so they left two to deal with him, and the other two went to arrest Nie Sangyu.
At the moment of life and death, Ji Man crouched outside the crowd and calculated.
If we do something here, we are definitely not 100% sure that we can kill her, so there must be countermeasures in Feiwan Pavilion, and the things she arranges may come in handy.
Even if there is no conclusive evidence to convict Qian Lianxue this time, it can still shake the trust of Mo Yuhou and the old lady in her. At least she can take away her aunt's position first, and her eyeliner in the house. Also unplug at least half of it.
It is still a good deal, as long as Qian Lianxue is really the same as she imagined, and she is a person with evil intentions.
There are also guys in the antique shop, these people smashed so many antiques, the shopkeeper asked someone to report to the official, and at the same time asked the guys to go up and hold these people down. This helped Ning Yuxuan a lot. Although he couldn't restrain them, it was not a problem to wait for the arresters to come quickly.
The police here are really good, the guys came soon after they went to report to the police, and arrested all the people who were still entangled with Ning Yuxuan, because Ning Yuxuan also fought hard and dressed in ordinary So they were taken back to the Yamen together.
Ji Man laughed so hard that tears almost came out, looking at Ning Yuxuan's livid face, he followed Guibai to drive and went to the Yamen to redeem him.
The dagger-wielding assailants all looked ordinary, and they were held in the yamen. They didn't show any fear on their faces, but one of them whispered: "If you fail, you may be punished."
A man behind him gave Ning Yuxuan a look and said, "If he hadn't appeared suddenly, how could he have failed?"
"Is it the guard of the Hou Mansion?" The person behind murmured, "The skill is pretty good."
"Thank you for your appreciation." Ning Yuxuan snorted coldly and said, "Murder violates the law, you still have the mind to chatter here, and when Jing Zhaoyin comes, do you still want to live?"
The faces of those people were very calm, as if they were not afraid of death, or they felt that they could not die. Ning Yuxuan's mind moved slightly, he lowered his head and stopped talking. When Jing Zhaoyin interrogated these people first, and then told him to go in, he showed the waist card of Moyuhou Mansion, explained what happened, and asked Jing Zhaoyin to uphold justice.
This Jing Zhaoyin is a new official, and he has never seen Mo Yuhou. He just thinks that this man is good-looking, so he took a second look, and then said: "They didn't hurt anyone, so the death penalty is naturally not enough. Just shut it down for a while."
According to the criminal law of the Song Dynasty, life is paid for murder, and life is also punished for attempted murder. The adult said so lightly that it would be fine to shut him down for a while.
Ning Yuxuan smiled: "My lord, take a step to speak."
Ji Man was waiting outside the yamen for the arrester's notification. Before he had waited for a while, he saw Ning Yuxuan coming out by himself, with a very ugly expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Jiman asked.
Ning Yuxuan waved his hand: "Go back, let others buy the rest."
It could be seen that he was in a bad mood, Ji Man didn't dare to talk too much, and followed him back honestly.
After returning to the mansion, Ji Man didn't go to Feiwan Pavilion, but went to find Nie Chenyu.
"Sister, do you want to sit in Feiwan Pavilion?" Ji Man said with a smile: "The old lady let us get along well, so we shouldn't disappoint her old lady's hope."
Nie Chenyu looked at her warily: "My sister is so kind all of a sudden, but my sister is a bit afraid to go."
When she was a child, she often pinched Nie Sangyu, but Nie Sangyu didn't have a mother, and she had one, so every time no matter who was at fault, it must be Nie Sangyu who was scolded and punished in the end.
Ji Man smiled and said: "It will be fine, Master Hou just came back with me, I guess I should go to the study for a while, and it should be over."
Only then did Nie Chenyu's eyes light up, and he tidied up and followed Ji Man.
As soon as he stepped into the Feiwan Pavilion, he saw Deng Xin standing in the yard with a smile on his face: "Master, there is a surprise in the room, you should open the door slowly."
Nie Chenyu asked curiously: "What surprise?"
Ji Man shrugged and signaled Nie Chenyu to open the door.
