"Thank you, Master Ji." Yang Hua also expressed his gratitude. After everyone dispersed, Ji Yingying began to choose books.
She picked out a few books that looked decent and asked Granny Xia to pay for them, while she obediently sat in the chair and waited.
On the surface, they were behaving obediently, but in their hearts, they had already set off on the highway.
This car could even make people around it blush.
So embarrassing...
Young Master Ji, you are indeed a romantic!
"Greetings, Lady Ji." Suddenly, someone rushed in and knelt before Ji Yingying.
"Who are you?" Ji Yingying was also startled and jumped back, she had never been bowed down to by anyone before.
“My name is Fu Yunjie. I am a villager from Chining Village outside the city. My father is the village chief.”
"You came to me to seek justice?" Ji Yingying asked, then she saw Fu Yunjie nod.
"Well, I'm just an editor. If you want to seek justice, go to Lord Gongsun of the Dali Temple. He's a good official and he'll definitely be able to get justice for you."
I've never done anything like this before. I don't understand, I don't understand.
[Host, he is indeed innocent.]
What's the juicy gossip? Tell me about it.
[His family were villagers in Chi Ning Village, but the village's well had been poisoned. Coincidentally, his family took in a stranger who was seriously ill. The villagers then accused them of poisoning the well, driving his father to his death and nearly killing his mother.]
So what's the situation now?
[It's terrible; the whole family was kicked out. Actually, the person who drugged them was his second uncle.]
[Oh, I see. His second uncle drugged his family to frame them, and then wanted to take over their position as village chief?]
【right】
As expected, the struggle for the crown prince position has always been a bloody affair.
"Lord Ji, the Dali Temple will not accept this case. I am at my wit's end. Please, my lord, give me justice."
[That's true. The Dali Temple doesn't handle these kinds of cases. They can only be taken to the prefectural government or the court.] Just as Ji Yingying was about to speak, Fu Yunjie immediately added, "I've already filed complaints with the prefectural government and the court, but no one has accepted them. It's only because my second uncle has some connections with the prefect."
Before Ji Yingying could speak, a handsome young man who was seriously ill entered.
"Young Master Ji, do you know that odd changes and even remains the same?"
Oh my god...
"Are you from the same hometown?" Ji Yingying's tone became lighter.
"How are you?"
"Thank you very much!"
[Xiangxiang, a fellow villager in the real world.]
Just as Mu Kaiji was about to respond to her heartfelt words, he suddenly choked himself. Already feeling unwell, he fainted immediately after being choked.
"Hey... don't die! Did you come all this way just to strangle me to death?"
"Apple, come quick! Someone committed suicide here, strangled to death! Come quick!"
Apple arrived, had someone help her into the carriage, and took Fu Yunjie away from the bookstore to find a pharmacy.
Upon arriving at the pharmacy, Xinhe County had just lifted the curtain when he suddenly remembered, "Oh dear, Apple, I know medicine! I had completely forgotten that I know medicine."
Apple: ...If you hadn't said anything, I would have thought you were just playing with him.
"Hehe, I'll show him right now."
He took her pulse, wrote a prescription, and finished in one go. Then he went home. As soon as he entered the door, Ji Yingying shouted at the top of her lungs, "Dad, I'm back!"
Ji Cailiang had just returned and hadn't even sat down yet.
"Oh, you're back now, why did you call me? Your father doesn't have any money, all the money is with your mother."
"I understand, Father. He's in a terrible state. Please save him and seek justice for him."
"Heh, I'm just a lowly seventh-rank official. What can I do? Tell him to go to the prefectural government. If that doesn't work, go to the Dali Temple. With your connections, the Dali Temple won't dare to refuse to handle his case."
"I know, but Dad, I brought someone back. Shall we take him in?"
"Hey, Xiangxiang, help me tell a lie. How can I get him to take me in? We're from the same hometown, after all."
[Host, why did you take him in? He's a male protagonist, a chosen one of destiny! What business is it of yours, an ordinary citizen, to take care of a chosen one of destiny?]
[What? He's the male protagonist of a romance novel? Does that mean once he recovers, a whole bunch of women will be chasing after him?]
How should I know? Anyway, it's not suitable to take them in. Just listen to me, you can't go wrong.
"This..." Ji Yingying felt embarrassed.
[Host, just keep him here for a few days. Once he recovers, let him go. You can't let him drain your luck.]
[Xiangxiang, is this a world for gossiping? Why is it getting so mystical?]
Don't worry, this is purely a gossip-filled world; there's no mystical element involved. He shouldn't be able to affect you.
The word "should" terrified Ji Yingying.
"How about this, we'll have someone take him to the Crown Prince's palace later. Maybe that will save him. Besides, we have nowhere to stay."
Ji Yingying was taken aback: "Yes, our place is small."
The five of them are already enough to fill the house, so Ji Yingying finally agreed to send the person to the East Palace and hand them over to the Crown Prince, but they would have to wait for the person to wake up.
People wake up after eating.
"Hey, fellow villager, what's your name? My name is Ji Yingying. I'm a native of this area. I didn't drink the Meng Po soup in my past life."
"My name is Mu Kaiji. I was pushed off a mountain while climbing, and I don't know why I suddenly ended up here."
"How long have you been here?"
"It's been two months." Mu Kaiji still couldn't accept that he had transmigrated to the Tianyou Dynasty.
However, he felt much more at ease knowing someone from his hometown. But this fellow villager must be powerful, as he has a system and the ability to read minds.
"When you transmigrated, what year was it?"
"It's been 25 years."
Three years... only three years have passed, sigh!
Why are you sighing? Don't forget, you're indigenous.
[I haven't forgotten, I'm indigenous.]
"By the way, you can't stay at my house, there's no room. My father said he'll send you to the East Palace, you can go there then, who knows, you might even be able to make a name for yourself there."
This guy has a great start, and he's also a chosen one; who knows, he might actually have a harem, comparable to Wei Xiaobao.
Mu Kaiji couldn't help but shake his head: he only wanted one love for life and didn't want to compare himself to Wei Xiaobao.
What were you doing in your past life?
"Police officers, detectives, were chasing a suspect, and then he discovered them and pushed them off a cliff."
"What? A detective? That's a hero! No wonder..."
No wonder Xiangxiang called him a chosen one; isn't he definitely one?
"I'm here to retire. I can't do anything else, so I'll have to trouble you to take care of me then."
Ji Yingying's eyes widened in surprise.
"Brother, the way you are... makes me want to hit you. I also want to give up. I love reading novels, drinking milk tea, and lying around all day."
"What a coincidence, me too."
"Hmph, do you think I believe that?" A criminal police officer, you say you want to slack off? Even a dog wouldn't believe it.
What did you do in your past life?
"You believe me if I'm a complete idiot?"
