After watching dozens of people leave, Yun Ziyue didn't go to arrest them. These people didn't look like bad guys, but rather tough, and cute.
"Princess, do you want your subordinates to bring them back?"
"No, you can't beat them."
"..." It's so heartbreaking, he really didn't find these people, but it doesn't mean he can't beat them.
"Aren't you convinced?" Yun Ziyue turned to look at the three of them.
"… No."
"Speak out what you have, don't hold it in your heart, I know you are not convinced, but these people are above you, maybe their IQ is not as good as yours, but their martial arts are definitely above yours, if you are not convinced, There is a great opportunity to compete.”
"Yes, princess."
…
Xu Zhimo was reading in his room, and he hadn't seen Ji Xiaoyao for several hours. At noon, he brought a bowl of what was said to be nutritious porridge, and it tasted good. After that, he seemed to be in a hurry, He left in a hurry.
Just as he was thinking this way, the door was pushed open, and Xu Zhimo looked in that direction, with some expectation in his eyes, and the anticipation in his eyes was gone after a glance. Still carrying something.
"I've seen Mr. Xu, this is brought by Mr. Ji, this is brought by the princess, Mr. Ji is afraid that Mr. Ji will be bored staying in the house, so he specially bought this thing to relieve your boredom."
The boy handed the things to Xu Zhimo as he spoke, Xu Zhimo was a little curious about what this man brought for him.
I reached out to take it and opened it, but I didn't expect it to be a Luban lock. The Linglong lock is interesting. It looks very simple, but in fact it has infinite mysteries. It is really a good thing to relieve boredom.
Xu Zhimo looked at the things in his hand and couldn't put it down. The boy saw this scene and looked at the things brought by the princess in his hand. He suddenly felt that the princess was so pitiful, and the young master seemed to like Ji Gongzi's things more.
"Young master, the princess bought this for you."
Xu Zhimo seemed to have just remembered that there was still this thing, reached out to take it, and looked at the candied dessert inside.
"..." It turns out that Yue'er also knows that her soup is bitter.
After looking at it twice, he handed it to the boy.
"Well, thank the princess for me, and put these on the table."
"yes."
Waiting for the boy to leave, Xu Zhimo fiddled with the Luban lock in his hand. He had played with this thing when he was a child, but he hadn't touched it much when he grew up. Some of them did feel fresh again, but the strength in their hands was still weak, and Xu Zhimo got a little tired after fiddling with them for a while.
I secretly thought that I must get out of bed and exercise when I was fully recovered, otherwise I would really become a weak scholar.
Putting Lu Bansuo beside the pillow, Xu Zhimo slowly fell asleep.
The sound from outside could not be heard here, Xu Zhimo slept peacefully, but it was not the case outside, when Qin Sheng and Ji Xiaoyao came back, the guards behind them escorted a few people in coarse clothes, among them was Yun Ziyue The shopkeeper and fellow of several shops I visited.
Some people looked ashamed and defeated, while others were still yelling and trying to break free.
"Why do you arrest us? We are all peaceful civilians. Even if you are officers and soldiers, you can't arrest people for no reason."
"Yeah, what did we do wrong, you want to treat us like this! Is there any law for the king?"
"Go!"
The soldier pushed and pushed these vexatious people impatiently.
"Put them all in prison and wait to be punished!" Qin Sheng said in a deep voice.
"yes!"
Ji Xiaoyao went to the study together.
"This subordinate pays homage to the princess. The princess is really predictable and meticulous. Everyone has caught her. How does the princess plan to deal with it?"
"Well, lock them up, as for those Mo Wenli people... kill them all."
Keeping these people would only be a disaster. In fact, apart from reporting to Mo Wenli, they did not pose any threat to them, but Mo Wenli's people must die.
"Yes, princess."
The two left the study room and glanced at each other.
Qin Sheng spoke first.
"The princess is really just the eldest lady of the prime minister's mansion?"
"Believe it or not, that's the truth, although I don't believe it either."
"Could it be that the princess has been a teacher before?"
Qin Sheng's words reminded Ji Xiaoyao of what happened in the alley back then, the corner of his mouth twitched, and he said,
"The concubine has indeed worshiped a teacher, and I heard that she is a very powerful person, but we have never seen it."
Qin Sheng nodded, so it makes sense, otherwise, where did this boudoir girl in the prime minister's mansion come from with such a vision? Seeing him like this, Ji Xiaoyao knew what he was thinking, not only he was thinking, but even Ji Xiaoyao himself was thinking about why the useless little pitiful girl turned into a strange woman who showed her sharpness now.
"Forget it, anyway, my lord prefers the current princess." It's not the daughter of the prime minister's mansion who just hid in the corner and didn't dare to look up a few years ago.
The two of them went to the dungeon while they were talking. Those people were locked up separately, and no one tortured them. Everyone knew that Beidi people who dared to be in Hanling Pass thought that they would be discovered one day. If you are ready to die, there is no need for those people in Shengjing, just kill them directly, saving time and effort.
"Come on, drag these people out and kill them!"
"yes!"
"Hey! You can't do this to us, we are the emperor's people, are you trying to plot against us by doing this to us!"
The man saw that the general in front of him was about to kill them without even saying a word, and he became anxious. He was waiting for these people to know their identities and make them a living sacrifice, but he didn't expect that they and Mo Jinyao The traitors are so virtuous that they want to kill them.
"Heh, rebel? Isn't rebel Mo Wenli the regicide? Even if we really want to rebel, what can you do to me?"
"You! You traitor, how dare you say that about our Emperor, you!"
Ji Xiaoyao didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he slashed at him with his sword, the man shut his mouth completely, blood flowed down the corner of his mouth, the man fell to the ground, struggled twice, and lost his breath.
Beidi's Anzhuang didn't feel much after seeing such a scene. On the contrary, those Anzhuangs in Shengjing seemed to realize that they were not joking, but were really going to kill them. Suddenly, several people began to feel weak. Yes, some of them have been arranged here by Mo Wenli and Concubine Jing for decades. They have already taken root here, married and had children, and their temperament has long since lost the tenacity of the past. Of course, they don’t want to die like this .
Ji Xiaoyao didn't even blink his eyes, "Kill them all!"
At this moment, a man knelt down, his arrogance had long since disappeared, and his face was full of humility and fear.
"Wait! I have important clues, can you not kill me, really, really."
"Oh? I'll give you a chance to talk about it."
"Yes, yes, it's His Majesty, no, Mo Wenli, he has long been in collusion with Beidi, and this time Beidi's troubles were caused by him,"
Ji Xiaoyao nodded, and looked at the other people sent by Shengjing.
"I have a chance with you, what else can I say?"
"Hmph, don't you want to know just say..."
Before the man finished speaking, Qin Sheng wiped his neck.
"What about you?" Ji Xiaoyao continued to ask.
"I said, I said, Mo Wenli is still in collusion with Xijing, and he wants to secretly marry the princess of Xijing to be his queen."
Everyone was chattering, Ji Xiaoyao just nodded, so that everyone could remember it, Qin Sheng watched from the side and didn't speak, but the trembling of his forehead revealed his mood, these people are still too simple, how can they be regarded as What about the dark village? No wonder Mo Wenli was so stupid.
"Do you remember everything?"
"It's all written down, my son."
"En." Ji Xiaoyao and Qin Sheng walked out, waved their hands, and there was a burst of screams behind them.
"You don't keep your word..."
The two of them left the dungeon, Ji Xiaoyao squinted his eyes as he watched the gray sunlight leaking out under the cover of the dark clouds in the sky.
"What, you're out of breath?"
"How could it be? These people deserve to die. What is there to be sad about?"
Qin Sheng glanced at him, but said nothing.
"Ah, my son is going to rest, you should go back too."
Ji Xiaoyao waved his hand, and left without turning his head. Qin Sheng looked at his back, said nothing, and sighed, don't look at Ji Xiaoyao's usual sloppy look, as if he doesn't care about anything, Even killing people without blinking an eye, but Ji Xiaoyao's heart is softer than anyone else's. Seeing these holy people like them being killed by themselves, he is the one who feels the most uncomfortable.
Shaking his head, there is no way, if they don't kill him, he will kill them too, the reality is like this, there is no choice.
When Ji Xiaoyao opened the door and entered the room, he saw Xu Zhimo sleeping soundly. In the past, Xu Zhimo never slept during the day, but now it's different. He would sometimes sleep during the day because of him.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw the Luban lock that he bought for him on his bedside. The smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed. The mood that was a little depressed just now became surprisingly brighter, and his mood fluctuated a little. .
When Xu Zhimo woke up, he happened to see Ji Xiaoyao sitting on the bedside. This man didn't know when he came in, but he was sitting on his bedside, holding a book in his hand that he hadn't finished reading. serious.
As if smelling something, when he turned his head, he saw the steaming black medicine in the bowl beside the bed.
"..." Is it too late for him to close his eyes now
And looking at it like this, it was obviously too late, because Ji Xiaoyao had already seen him wake up, and put down the book in his hand.
"Wake up, are you feeling better?"
"Okay, you don't need to take the medicine anymore." Xu Zhimo's mind was full of the black medicine.
"..." Ji Xiaoyao couldn't help laughing, he really didn't expect Xu Zhimo to have such a child.
"Be obedient, drink the medicine, the princess also bought a lot of desserts, after drinking the medicine, you won't be bitter."
Ji Xiaoyao stretched out his hand to take the bowl of medicine, handed it to Xu Zhimo, and persuaded him in a soft tone that he didn't even notice.
Xu Zhimo probably felt that he was a bit hypocritical, or maybe he felt that he couldn't push it away, so he could only hold his nose and drink it. Ji Xiaoyao took a piece of candied fruit and fed it to his mouth, and his fingers accidentally touched Xu Zhimo's. Lips, Ji Xiaoyao seemed to have been electrocuted, hurriedly retracted his hands into his sleeves, coughed,
"How is it? Sweet?"
Xu Zhimo saw his reaction in his eyes, moved in his heart, and nodded.
"Ji Xiaoyao..." For some reason, Xu Zhimo couldn't help calling his name.
"Ok?"
"It's okay." Xu Zhimo, who had always had the chance to win, suddenly became timid, thinking, the days are still long, and it's not too late to talk about it later.
"You bought this?"
"Well, I bought it when I saw it on the street." After saying this, a suspicious blush appeared on Ji Xiaoyao's face.
Xu Zhimo didn't believe it, this Luban lock was not an ordinary Luban lock at first glance, there must be some mystery in it, otherwise, based on his experience in unlocking Luban locks for so many years, it is impossible that he could not solve this one.
"Well, the Luban lock you bought is really exquisite, it's not quite the same as the one I bought before."
"Yes...is it?"
"I don't know where you bought it. I really want to meet the master who made this Luban lock and ask him for advice."
"Well, that master looks like an outsider. He sold it outside. I'm afraid he's gone by now. Besides, your body is not suitable for going out. Maybe you can see him when you have a chance in the future."
"... That's really a pity." Xu Zhimo had a lot of meaning, and Ji Xiaoyao's eyes wandered.
—
"Sister, sister, sister—"
Shouts resounded in a certain courtyard of the General's Mansion. The guards outside the courtyard were watching their noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, and hearts, and pretended not to hear it. No one knew why the princess brought such a A bear kid is back.
The people in the room didn't care what the people outside thought, they just kept yelling at their sister, the door was kicked open suddenly, Su Ran's eyes lit up, but she was obviously disappointed when she saw the person coming.
"What's your expression?" It's the first time Qin Xiang was looked at with such eyes at such a young age. Why is she rejected by others
"Nothing, where's my sister?"
"Sister? What sister, that's the princess, you little brat, don't yell."
"You're the brat."
"You!" Qin Xiang didn't expect this kid to be on their territory, and even tied up to be so arrogant. He smiled and said, "I don't know as much as you, but I would like to advise you , don’t mess with our Yue’er by looking for trouble, or you won’t be able to bear it in the end.”
"I don't, that's my sister, not your sister, why do you care about me?"
"I… "
"This concubine can't be the elder sister of the man who is at the helm of the underground imperial city. Young master Xiaoran should find another master."
"... Sister, you are really sharp." The boy who was still tied to the stool moved slightly, and the rope fell to the ground. The boy who was 1.78 meters stood up, his voice changed, and his temperament also changed. like a man.
