That night, the county magistrate's mansion looked quiet, but in fact a storm was brewing.

Ji Anjian stood in front of the desk in the study, writing calmly with his face, and was intoxicated by the world of painting, as if the entire county magistrate was nothing and did not exist in the world at all.

Outside the study, Kui Hai was directing his subordinates to be busy, but there were obviously many people running back and forth, but the movement was very small, as if a group of ants were working silently, and the entire county magistrate's mansion was still as calm as the night sky on the surface.

A guard named Mei Qiming was saying to a servant named Wu Mingzi: "Now Commander Kui is commanding soldiers to transfer the property of the County Governor Ji. Half of the troops in the County Governor's Mansion have been transferred by Commander Kui, and I happened to be arranged in the courtyard of the next garrison Miss Ji. After I change shifts, it is time for us to complete the task."

He and Wu Mingzi have a common task, which is to lead Ji Ying out of the county magistrate's office.

"Okay, let's act as planned! The elder said that as long as we can complete the task smoothly this time, we can return to the sect and no longer have to live such a worried life. And there will be a generous reward, which is exciting to think about."

"Don't think so much, you will be crazy. The task is important now. I have an hour to go and change the duty. After an hour, we will take action." Mei Qiming stared at Wu Mingzi and sneered in his heart.

"no problem."

An hour later, Ji Anjian was still splashing ink in the study, and a roaring map of mountains and seas flapping against the peaks in the sea was gradually taking shape. Several tiny seagulls spread their wings and fought in the huge waves. The sky was covered with dark clouds, as if a thunder tribulation was about to be completed, and they were about to make the poor seagulls worse.

A slightly fat servant was walking towards Ji Ying's courtyard. He held a midnight snack made with spiritual medicine in his hand. Ji Ying ordered the kitchen just now, and the servant named Wu Mingzi took the initiative to grab the job of delivering food to Miss Ji.

After he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw two guards wearing armor standing in front of the door. Although nearly half of the two guards' faces were covered by helmets, and they couldn't see clearly in the night, he knew that among the two guards, Mei Qiming was among the two guards.

When he approached, Mei Qiming confirmed his identity as usual and let him enter the yard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Ji Ying's personal maid was waiting near the door to take his late-night snack, and then the maid said to him: "Okay, you can go back."

"Then Sister Laurie, I'll come here to collect the tableware later." Wu Ming said to the maid with a smile.

The maid named Li Jie nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are really interested, so okay, come here again in two quarters of an hour."

If someone is willing to do this, she will naturally be lazy if she can be lazy.

Just as Sister Li turned around and was about to leave, Wu Mingzi stopped her again: "Sister Li, please stay."

"What's wrong?"

"This... is not a big deal. I will tell you when I come to collect the tableware in two quarters of an hour." Wu Mingzi actually took advantage of this time to do some tricks on Sister Li. When he got it halfway, Sister Li was about to walk away. He called Sister Li in a hurry, so now he just found an excuse to get over it.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Sister Li walked away again, and this time she really walked away.

Wu Ming didn't walk away since he left the yard, so he stayed by the yard and waited for two quarters of an hour.

On the tray where he just put the tableware, he applied a colorless and odorless drug. The drug can be swept into the air over time and sucked in by someone. Although it will not cause a coma, it can numb people's consciousness and judgment, and thus become susceptible to outsiders' instructions.

This is the pill that the elders of Emperor Xizong of Ming secretly gave him today, and he and Mei Qiming had already taken the pills for a long time.

Two quarters of an hour later, he entered the courtyard as agreed. This time, Sister Li was not waiting for him at the door, so he walked directly to the room where Ji Ying was.

At this time, Ji Ying and the maids around her were all immersed in the medicine without realizing it, becoming blind and habitually doing the work at hand.

If there are still people who are awake at the scene, they will definitely show abnormalities, because the person will notice that all the companions around are doing the same set of movements at the rhythm.

Now Ji Ying is sitting on the chair with a blank look on her face, looking like she is staying there.

Since Wu Ming walked into the room, he first cleaned up the tableware in a regular manner. After he observed and confirmed that everyone around him had been infected with the medicine, he said to Ji Ying: "Miss, when Mr. Wang Yimiao, who was closed, came to you, but he said he was visiting late at night and was embarrassed to enter your boudoir, so he was waiting for you by the Taiye Pool."

Ji Ying replied in a voiceless voice: "Really? That's great, I'll go see him now."

Now that she is already numb, she can't tell that Wu Mingzi's words are full of loopholes. Whether it is the time when Wang Yimiao visited, the place where she met, or the time when Wu Mingzi made this statement, she did not realize that there was a problem.

"That villain will lead you." Wu Mingzi smiled slightly.

The Taiye Pool was close to the back door of the County Magistrate's Mansion. It only took a few minutes to walk from the Taiye Pool to the back door. Moreover, not only he and Mei Qiming participated in this operation, but also two other companions who were guards in the County Magistrate's Mansion were arranged to respond near the Taiye Pool.

"Okay." Ji Ying still answered without a tone.

So Jiying was fooled by Wu Mingzi from the courtyard. Because she was walking in the mansion, she only brought her personal maid, Sister Li.

After Wu Ming took Ji Ying out of the ward, Mei Qiming, who was guarding the door, and another guard asked Ji Ying where he was going according to the rules.

This kind of precept is not implemented during the day, but when it is time to rest at night, you must ask that even if the spirits do not have to sleep by absorbing spiritual energy into the body, this precept is still continued.

And according to the general rules, Mei Qiming and the other guard finally needed to follow Ji Ying and take the responsibility of protecting Ji Ying.

In this way, Wu Ming took Ji Ying and Sister Li to walk in front, and Mei Qiming and another guard followed them.

Soon, the five people arrived at the edge of Taiye Pool, which was an artificial pool with beautiful scenery, but at night, the entire pool was completely shrouded in the darkness and there were few people around.

"Where is Wang Yimiao?" Ji Ying asked in confusion, but her tone was still unpredictable.

"Wang Tianjiao said he wanted to play a game with you, called role-playing. He hid in a corner, waiting for the lady to come to him as a role-playing person." Mei Qiming suddenly walked up and said to Ji Ying.

"Oh, okay." Ji Ying's playful nature was activated. In a state of paralysis of consciousness, she did not think about the strangeness of this game at all. "What am I going to play?"

"The lady wants to play a guard, and Wang Tianjiao plays the king. Some assassins are coming to assassinate the king, and the lady catches the assassin and then escorts the assassin to find the king to receive the reward." Mei Qiming explained.

Wu Mingzi was a little confused. Although his and Mei Qiming's plan was to trick Ji Ying out of the mansion by playing games, and the name of the game was indeed called role-playing, the content of the game was not the case.

But he is a good teammate, and even if he has doubts, he will not ask at this time.

"I can still receive the reward in the end! This is great, I must play. Who will play as an assassin?" Ji Ying smiled on her face, but her tone was completely unchanged.

"Assassin..." Mei Qiming was just halfway through his words, and when Wu Mingzi was caught off guard, he stabbed Wu Mingzi's heart with a dagger.

Wu Mingzi grabbed the hilt of the dagger, stared at Mei Qiming in disbelief, and asked in a trembling voice: "Why?"

Mei Qiming reached out to cover Wu Mingzi's mouth, put his head in his ear and said, "There are only five people present, and I need a clean armor to take Ji Ying out of the house, so I can only feel wronged."

At this time, the other three people did not respond.

The other guard was already infected on the way here.

Wu Ming struggled with no power, and could only watch his blood flow out of his chest.

Mei Qiming turned to Ji Ying and said, "Xiao Wuzi plays a co-party of an assassin, but she died before she succeeds. Look, Xiao Wuzi pretends to be dead, so I put a toy knife on his chest. He also cooperated to cut his skin and squeeze out blood."

"Oh, it's really like it."

"The ground is too cold, so you can't let Xiao Wuzi fall to the ground. Sister Li, please come and support Xiao Wuzi."

Sister Li subconsciously turned her head to look at Ji Ying. At this time, she could still ask Ji Ying for instructions, which shows how loyal she is to Ji Ying.

Ji Ying nodded: "Sister Li, I'll bother you."

Sister Li immediately went over to support Wu Mingzi and stood there blankly.

Mei Qiming said in his heart: "The elder gave me a great medicine. The effect is absolutely nothing to say. It is really as the elder said. As long as I gain the trust of the other party at the beginning, the other party will believe whatever he said in the end. Even if I kill Wu Mingzi on the spot, I can fool me."

Then, with excitement, he pointed at the other guard and said, "Come and play the assassin who was caught by the lady."

"Okay." The other guard replied involuntarily.

"Then take off your armor and put it on the lady."

The other guard immediately took off his armor. In his consciousness, he really thought that he was playing the assassin. In order to make Miss happy, he cooperated without hesitation. As for other strange things, he could not think about it any more.

After he took off all his armor, Ji Ying put the armor on. Mei Qiming handed a coat he had prepared to the guard and asked him to put on the coat so that it would not be too conspicuous.

After everything was ready, Mei Qiming and Ji Ying, who had already dressed as a guard, escorted the guard who played the assassin, and walked in the direction Mei Qiming said.

Then they shouted loudly: "There are assassins! Catch the assassins!"

Suddenly, the entire county magistrate's mansion became restless.

But Ji Anjian in the study was still as motionless as a mountain, and was still drawing his picture of the roaring mountains and seas.
Chapter completed!
