Chapter 222 Old Deng is poisoned again

[Which one?] Xiangxiang didn't understand, she just thought that if this person's neck was gone, then they were gone.

[That choking was way too brutal.]

[Host, don't think like that. He died a worthy death!]

How can you talk like that? They were human beings too; how can they be said to have died a worthy death?

Ji Yingying looked at the man again. He had one hand around her neck and the other pointing at her. His gaze was truly terrifying.

[I remember the last time I strangled myself was a woman, but I can't remember who it was. It happened in the Imperial Study.]

[Whoever she is, she's no good. Let me tell you, this bandit leader really deserved to die. He killed so many people, even his wife and mother.]

How to say it?

[He was a bandit, he'd done plenty of robberies. His family tried to persuade him to stop, but he wouldn't listen and even felt they were getting in his way, so he stabbed them to death. He had more than fifty lives on his hands, and he had a violent and easily angered nature.]

【What's this called? I've forgotten the word!】 Ji Yingying thought of the symptom, but couldn't remember the two words.

I decided to stop thinking about it.

Even so, it should be left to the law to decide. Forget it, let's leave before they can react. Ji Yingying pulled Rong Er aside and whispered, "Rong Er, you deal with them, even if they die or are injured, but you must make it public so the world knows who these people are."

"yes"

This time, Rong Er didn't hide anything and made the arrangements directly in front of Ji Yingying.

They then continued their journey with Ji Yingying.

As for that person, he was still choking himself, but whether he actually killed himself is hard to say.

They drove for a while, changing cars twice, and only rested for two hours before continuing their journey.

On the morning of the third day, they finally entered the city and returned to the Ji family home.

I was beaten again as soon as I entered the door, again with a rattan cane, which hurt terribly.

Jenny tried to stop them, but she couldn't.

"Mother, what are you doing? Didn't you say you were sick?"

"If I didn't say it like that, would you have been willing to come back? Once you left, you thought you were free to roam, abandoning your home altogether?"

"Mother, I didn't, I really didn't." Ji Yingying sighed. The outside world was really fun, and besides, she hadn't been out for so many years.

It's a rare opportunity to go out, so naturally I want to have a good time. Have you ever seen anyone with money who doesn't travel?

Even if you don't like traveling, you'll still visit some scenic spots or go shopping.

This is normal for her!

"Mother, I was wrong, I was wrong, please stop hitting me. I just got back, and the Emperor... he's probably heard the news too. He's been trying to treat me like a beast of burden, and he's probably going to send me back to the palace again."

"His Majesty won't blame me. You really won't know what you've done unless you get a beating."

"Second sister-in-law, please persuade my mother. I was really wrong." Ji Yingying sighed. Oh! My mother is almost eleven years old, a big girl now, how can she still be beaten every day?

If my colleagues or friends see this someday, I'll be so embarrassed.

"Mother, alright, my sister just got back. Let her wash up and have something to eat. Besides, my sister is right, Father-in-law might be here soon."

The Emperor also cherishes Ji Yingying dearly. Hearing that she has returned, he will likely not let her go. It is estimated that Eunuch Cao is already on his way.

"You should plead for her; she'll be spoiled sooner or later." Fang Yulan sighed. Her daughter was grown up and shouldn't be hit anymore, but she had no choice but to.

She really has a headache with such a naughty daughter.

Look at other families, their daughters are all so sweet and gentle, and then look at hers.

It's as mischievous as a monkey!

While Ji Yingying was washing up, everyone outside the capital knew that their little melon king had returned.

The days of gossiping are back.

Immediately, the melon seed shop saw a resurgence in business.

The shop owners who prayed for the return of Little Melon King every day were eager to fulfill their vows and tell the Bodhisattvas that Little Melon King had returned and their businesses had returned.

After washing up and eating, Ji Yingying was about to take a nap when Eunuch Cao arrived as expected.

"Your Highness, Eunuch Cao has arrived."

"Oh..." Ji Yingying yawned, feeling a little sleepy, but still asked someone to change her clothes.

They changed into official robes.

"This old servant greets Your Highness. How has Your Highness been these past month?"

"Hehe, I'm fine. How are you, Father-in-law?" Ji Yingying asked with a smile, and handed him a bag of spicy strips.

"Father-in-law, please try this, it's delicious."

Eunuch Cao accepted the gift and quickly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"No need to be so polite, no need to be so polite. Are you going to the palace?"

Eunuch Cao quickly replied, "Yes, His Majesty has instructed this old servant to invite Your Highness to the palace."

"Alright then, let's go, let's go into the palace and take a look." Ji Yingying yawned again.

It was really tiring traveling, but when I thought about how I had skipped work and been caught by the boss, he became much more accommodating.

When Eunuch Cao heard that he was going to the palace, he breathed a sigh of relief. He had been so tormented by this little darling that he was afraid to come and invite anyone.

"By the way, I heard that this bicycle is being released very well. I can see bicycles being sold in very remote areas."

The Ministry of Works is a good place; they've made pretty quick progress in researching bicycles, even though they're wooden models.

But it's really great to ride; at least she rode it, and it was very, very good.

"Your Highness, not many of these bicycles have been produced yet. However, at the beginning of the month, the Ministry of Works ordered all cities and counties to start manufacturing them. As for sales, this old servant has no idea."

"Yes, I know the price, but this shouldn't be the official price set by the government. We need to find out more about it before we can release it."

Eunuch Cao: ...Your Highness, could you please talk in the Imperial Study? He is just a eunuch and should not interfere in politics.

"And corn, sweet potatoes, compost, etc., it's really handled quite well." Ji Yingying chuckled twice.

Upon arriving at the Imperial Study, Ji Yingying quickly bowed and greeted, "Your Majesty, how are you?" Seeing the Crown Prince there, she hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, how are you?"

"snort!"

Needless to say, the one who snorted was definitely the Emperor. It's a pity that Ji Yingying doesn't care that he'll get angry.

[Old Deng got poisoned again? He was just cured last year, and now he's poisoned again. What's going on? Did his enemies come looking for revenge while I was away this month?]

The Emperor: ...He's been poisoned again. Needless to say, it's because Ji Yingying is scolding him, she keeps scolding the old emperor!

At first, he thought it was a compliment, and he was even pleased with himself. But he never expected it to be an insult.

It put him in an awkward position, thankfully he never said it to anyone else, otherwise he would have lost all face.

"So you finally decided to come back?"

Now that he knew he had been poisoned, the Emperor was not worried, but the Crown Prince was.

How did I get poisoned?

Could it be... that someone else is eyeing the Ning family's empire?
