"To be honest with you girl, Pindao has been having a doubt in his mind for the past two days. Previously, the girl had asked Pindao about the soul-locking technique... and then she showed Pindao a very detailed layout of the house.
…”
Having said this, Yao Jing observed the girl's face and then asked in a low voice: "I wonder... is this related to the case of the second son of the Xia family?"
He had also thought that maybe he shouldn't ask more about this matter, but he couldn't help but think about it, his heart was scratching like a cat, and he couldn't even eat anymore!
But if the girl refused to tell him, he wouldn't ask a second time.
After all, he is also a sensible person.
While Yao Jing waited with bated breath, he saw the girl nodded calmly without any hesitation.
"yes."
The girl's tone was so normal that she seemed to be saying something that should be the case.
Yao Jing's eyes widened.
The girl admitted it so readily, is it really okay?
In other words... the young master of the Xia family was really sent to prison by his girl?!
The girl is so capable, does the general know?
Even though he had thought about such a result, Yao Jing could not calm down at this time.
"Sir, don't worry. I obtained my grandfather's consent before I did this." Xu Mingyi comforted him.
Yao Jing had a complicated expression on his face.
He finally understood the confidence behind the general's words, "Are you looking down on someone's granddaughter?"...
This is really a dare to do and a dare to pamper.
Yao Jing couldn't tell how he felt when he saw these two carefree grandfather and grandson.
"Sir, do you have anything else you would like to ask?"
The girl's tone and look were both frank and honest, with a sense of knowing everything.
Yao Jing said tentatively: "I don't know about the incident where Fengtian Palace was struck by lightning..."
Xu Mingyi said seriously: "I guess God has eyes."
Yao Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
He said that this kind of thing can only be a coincidence!
"girl……"
Yao Jing calmed down his emotions, and then warned: "Girls cannot mention these things to others at will... Although our government is not afraid of trouble, it is better to avoid the trouble that can be avoided."
After I finished my warning, I couldn't help but feel that the development of this situation was a bit strange.
Wasn't it the girl who told him to keep secrets and not to talk too much?
Why was he so worried now, afraid that the girl would tell the truth?
Mr. Yao sighed heavily in his heart.
It’s really easy for a girl’s secrets to be asked out.
Even the girl's overly casual attitude gave him the illusion that "this is not a secret at all."
Seeing Mr. Yao's heartbroken look, Xu Mingyi couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't worry, sir, I understand the severity."
As for why he didn’t hide it in front of Mr. Yao——
Is it out of complete trust?
No, it was more because I knew what happened before was there and could not be concealed, so I didn't bother to lie.
Yao Jing didn't know that the girl in front of him had such simple thoughts to save trouble. After thinking about it for a moment, he felt that after his outstanding performance before, the girl had already regarded him as one of his own.
This realization made Mr. Yao feel that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavier.
"Sir, if there is nothing else, I will go out first."
Taking a look at the food box in Akui's hand, Yao Jing couldn't help but ask more: "Please forgive me for talking too much... I wonder which house the girl is planning to go to?"
"Go to the princess's mansion."
She made an appointment with Jiao Jiao yesterday.
Yao Jing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and raised his hand to salute.
Perhaps because he still had lingering fears about the second son of the Xia family, he just felt that it was a normal thing for the girl to visit the eldest princess's house.
Xu Mingyi took Akui out of the house.
As they were waiting to board the carriage, they suddenly heard a faint sound of quarreling and crying coming from the front.
Xu Mingyi looked subconsciously.
However, the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion occupies most of Qingyun Square, and she was standing outside the main entrance. Looking from a distance, she couldn't see anyone around.
Xu Mingyi didn't pay attention, picked up her skirt and got on the carriage.
As the carriage drove forward, the sounds she heard earlier became clearer.
But she has excellent hearing, and it is difficult to pretend that she cannot hear.
"How could you do this! My father and brother just had an accident...you are going to take away our house! Why!"
"Why? Your grandfather was able to build a house here because of the support from the whole clan! I thought that your grandfather was a scholar and your father was a scholar at a young age, so he would be able to shine in the clan in the future... But who
Knowing that he actually committed such a crime has brought shame to the entire clan!"
"We just took the house back and didn't hold anything else accountable. We also left you with enough belongings to keep you safe. We already thought of your orphaned daughter and widowed mother's hardship!"
"And your unsatisfactory brother threw himself into the river, and half of the men in your family are gone. Sooner or later, this house will belong to the clan!"
"Don't mess around anymore, otherwise don't blame us for being merciless——"
Men's voices came one after another, and Xu Mingyi roughly understood the cause and effect.
It seems that the mother and daughter of the Zhan family are going to be driven out of Qingyunfang by the Zhan family.
It is normal for people to be warm and cold. She does not know the whole story whether the Zhan family's mother and daughter are good or evil, but thinking about the world's evaluation of Zhan Yunzhu, Xu Mingyi still wants to sneer.
His father was imprisoned. As the only male in the family, he left his mother and sister behind. Without any explanation or arrangement, after identifying the son of the chief minister of the dynasty, he chose to "drown into the river" alone - this is what the common people
A talented man who speaks upright and is not afraid of power and has integrity.
I have to say that the world is really tolerant of hypocrites.
"Etc., etc!"
Suddenly a girl's urgent voice came closer.
Seeing the girl in green who broke into the car, the driver quickly reined in his horse.
"Girl, she is the second girl of the Zhan family." The coachman said towards the direction of the carriage.
Hearing this, Zhan Yunjiao hurriedly stepped forward and patted the carriage and said, "It's Sister Xu, right? My mother and I are being made things difficult by these tribesmen. Please help me and my mother, Sister Xu!"
Xu Mingyi is the only legitimate daughter of the Zhenguo Palace, and her words are very weighty. These tribesmen bully the weak and fear the strong. If Xu Mingyi came forward to protect their mother and daughter, they would not dare to go against the Zhenguo Palace!
When the members of the Zhan family saw clearly the government emblem on the large oil-walled carriage, their expressions changed slightly.
Zhan Qian's family is close to the Zhenguo government, and they naturally know it - the reason why they devoted all their efforts to cultivating Zhan Qian's father's lineage and sent them to Qingyunfang was to win
That is to say, I can establish some relationships with the noble people in the community.
But now that Zhan Qian has committed such a thing, everything he has worked so hard for over the years has come to nothing.
But I heard that the girl from Zhenguo Palace has an indifferent temperament...
Maybe it's possible that he doesn't care about occupying the house and just wants to protect the girl he's friends with?
Everything fell silent, and while the tribesmen were thinking about the pros and cons, they heard a girl's calm voice coming from inside the car.
