Chapter 472 Handle

This statement obviously did not suit the mind of the King of Nangong. He snorted coldly: "Okay, I didn't keep you here to listen to these high-sounding words."

"I think the high priest has become more and more presumptuous recently."

The king no longer had any fear of him.

The Great Elder also knew that the high priest's repeated rejections had already annoyed the King of Nangong, not to mention that the King of Nangong had long wanted to abolish the high priest, and now he could no longer bear it.

But the Great Elder did not want to get involved.

"The high priest is devoted to Nanlong, and now it is time for sacrifice. Maybe he was too tired in the sacrifice, and he also thought that it was not a fatal injury, so..."

"Amusadu was in such a state, didn't the high priest take any action?"

The elder made a few simple excuses and then stopped talking.

The King of Nanlong looked at him with heavy eyes, and the elder's back felt a little cold before he asked him to leave.

The next moment after stepping out of the palace door, the elder heard the sound of shattering from inside.

He sighed softly.

...

Shengjing, the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

Ji Tong was taken to Xiao Yanli's study.

"You said yesterday that your memory was impaired?"

Ji Tong didn't know what Xiao Yanli was going to do yesterday, so he wanted to use the excuse of memory impairment to reject him. But once the words were out, there was no reason to take them back. Ji Tong replied, "Yes, I couldn't even remember General Jiang at first, but I'm much better now."

Xiao Yanli said "Oh", "You are injured, so sit down and talk. You looked very energetic yesterday, and you didn't look like a patient at all. The court doctor will be here soon. I don't know how well my people have treated you, so let the court doctor take another look at you."

He knew that he had vomited blood yesterday.

This was Ji Tong's first reaction. Then, he sat down and said, "Thank you for your consideration, Your Highness. Thank you for your help."

The two sat for a while, and then the court doctor came. After checking, the court doctor said, "The young master has serious internal injuries and needs to be recuperated. You must not use your internal energy during this period."

Ji Tong smiled and nodded.

After the court doctor left, the conversation officially began. At least in the few words he said yesterday, Ji Tong did not lie to himself, and Xiao Yanli's tone towards him was also softer now.

"Mr. Ji must be highly valued by General Jiang, otherwise he wouldn't have brought you back to the capital alone."

Ji Tong smiled faintly: "The general has been very kind to me, but he brought me back to the capital mainly because I have something to ask for."

"Oh? What is it?"

Ji Tong looked at him hesitantly, as if he was hesitating about something. Xiao Yanli waited patiently for a long time before Ji Tong spoke: "...to find my younger brother."

Brother...

Xiao Yanli's eyes were deep.

Once he started talking, it was much easier to talk about.

"I told Your Highness before that my parents were killed by the Mobei people. I have a younger brother, and because he was still young, I hid him in a vegetable jar and led those Mobei people away myself."

"When I was about to be killed by those people, the general saved me. When I went back, my brother was nowhere to be found." "I

was homeless overnight, so I asked the general to take me in, and I took revenge while looking for my brother's whereabouts."

When talking about the past, Ji Tong's eyes were sad, and the smile on his mouth turned into a bitter smile.

"So that's the case, Master Ji, don't worry, do you still remember some of your brother's characteristics? I'll send someone to find him for you."

Ji Tong's eyes were full of flattery.

"Why, why do you bother me, Your Highness..."

"No need to be polite. You are my people of Tianqi. Moreover, you have been fighting for Tianqi. Why should you bother looking for someone?"

Ji Tong was so moved that he knelt down and saluted: "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Xiao Yanli personally helped him up: "No need to be polite. Tell me about your brother's characteristics."

"There is a red mole on the back of your brother's neck. By now, he should be old enough to tie his hair."

Xiao Yanli nodded, wrote it down, and waited for a long time, but didn't wait for the next sentence.

"No more?"

"...No more," Ji Tong was a little embarrassed, "It's been too long, I only remember these..."

Xiao Yanli nodded, and secretly relaxed in his heart.

After so long, if he could still remember it clearly, he would be suspicious.

It is reasonable to only remember these characteristics.

Moreover, the fewer features there are, the easier it is for him to fake it.

Xiao Yanli thought calmly, and comforted Ji Tong a few more times before letting him go.

"Go check first, has Jiang Wenjing been looking for anyone in these years, and has Ji Tong's identity been investigated clearly?"

"My lord, there is no news yet, but there is indeed a person named Ji Tong around Jiang Wenjing, and the Third Prince has also seen him."

Xiao Yanli nodded and handed the paper in his hand to his subordinates: "Look for people with this feature, the more the better."

...

Thinking of getting clues from Ji Tong, Xiao Yanli only sent people to monitor him secretly, and openly, he did not restrict his actions.

Ji Tong was getting familiar with the Sixth Prince's Mansion, and as he walked, he saw a familiar figure.

"Miss Song?"

Song Shiwei's body stiffened.

She turned around and looked at the person in front of her: "Master Ji? Why are you here?"

Isn't Ji Tong someone close to Jiang Wenjing? How could he be in the Sixth Prince's mansion?

Ji Tong's news had been updated after Jiang Wenjing left, so he knew that Song Shiwei was already Xiao Yanli's concubine, and that she had clues to the treasure of the previous dynasty.

But at this moment, he pretended not to know: "The Sixth Prince has something to ask me, where is Miss Song? Why is she here?"

Song Shiwei looked at him suspiciously, and when he saw that he didn't ask about the scar on her face, nor did he show any surprise or disgust, the resistance in her heart was reduced a little, and she said: "I am already the Sixth Prince's concubine."

Ji Tong suddenly realized: "I didn't know, I'm sorry for offending my wife."

Song Shiwei waved his hand lightly: "No problem."

She had no enthusiasm to continue chatting with the person in front of her. After responding a few times indifferently, she said, "Mr. Ji, please take your time. I'm leaving first."

Ji Tong nodded slightly.

He didn't want to be too close to Song Shiwei at the beginning, which might easily arouse Xiao Yanli's suspicion.

Coming over to say hello was just to remind Xiao Yanli that he had lived in the Prime Minister's Residence for a period of time before. Song Shiwei had met him and could confirm his identity.

Xiao Yanli paused slightly after listening to his subordinates' report on Ji Tong's whereabouts.

He had been thinking about how to ignore Song Shiwei these days, but he had forgotten about this.

From the looks of it, Ji Tong's identity is set in stone.

Xiao Yanli thought about this, and seeing that it was getting late outside, he got up.

He had come to Song Shiwei's courtyard these days, and he would look at her back late at night when she was asleep, as usual. It was still as smooth as jade.

He left the room and asked the maid, "Did she say anything these days?"

The maid shook her head and said hesitantly, "Master, Miss Song seems to have completely given up after seeing that scene. Not only did she not let me continue to follow you these days, she didn't even mention you..."
