Chapter 658 Do you still believe in Lord Yang?
Xianxian felt that since Mr. Zhao had set his eyes on this ship and her, he must know something and might not be so easy to get rid of.
But seeing that Yu Shiyi looked confident, she didn't dare to express her concerns.
In the next few days, Ji Yunshu came less often. When he came occasionally, he just chatted with Xianxian for a few words and then went to find Qingyu.
That’s right, she was fascinated by Qingyu’s dance and enjoyed watching it every day.
Yu Shiyi thought she was going after the pirates, and said to Xianxian, "After all, she is young and immature. How capable can she be? Qingyu is more than enough to deal with him."
Xianxian and Qingyu are in a competitive relationship now, so it would be even more difficult for her to say anything bad about Qingyu in front of Yu Shiyi.
We can only wait and see how things develop.
Qingyu is a person with a somewhat aloof personality. Ji Yunshu watched her dance for a few days but was unable to get familiar with her.
He smiled and said, "Miss Qingyu, you can't do this. If you want to be an oiran, you should be more approachable."
It is understandable that a beauty and talented woman of Qingyu's level would have a high opinion of herself.
But Qingyu was not like that. It was only after meeting her a few times that Ji Yunshu realized that her coldness came from within.
In short, she is a person with a naturally cold personality.
No matter how Ji Yunshu tried to get close to her, she turned a blind eye.
However, Ji Yunshu also suspected that she was wary of him, so he simply gave her a cold face.
Ji Yunshu felt that there was something wrong with her and of course would not give up easily. He looked like he was completely fascinated by her dance.
At the same time, he also spent a lot of money on her.
But it still didn't bring a smile from the beauty.
That day, she chatted with Xianxian and Yu Shiyi for a few minutes before going to find Qingyu.
Xianxian was a little jealous and said, "Do you like Qingyu that much?"
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "She dances beautifully."
Xianxian asked, "Young Master has been here for some time now. I guess he will be leaving soon. Is he going to take Qingyu with him when the time comes?"
Yu Shiyi acted quickly and handed the prepared evidence to Qi Zheng.
Last night, Qi Zheng went to their residence and cursed the Yu family for being inhumane and insisted on pushing Yang Zhen to death.
Ji Yunshu certainly couldn't let them do this, so he came to the flower boat more frequently.
She had a hunch that something was wrong with the ship.
I just haven't figured out the position of the people on the boat yet.
Ji Yunshu said with some distress: "My family is very strict. If people knew that I came here, my father would probably break my legs, let alone take me back."
Xianxian covered her lips and smiled: "I didn't expect that the young master's family education is so strict."
Ji Yunshu spread his hands: "It can't be helped. I can't break up with my family for a woman. So I might as well take a few more glances while I have the chance."
Xianxian suddenly asked, "I heard that the evidence in Lord Yang's case is already conclusive. Does your Excellency know anything about the inside story?"
Ji Yunshu laughed and said, "Even though I'm from the capital, I'm not familiar with that Marquis Jingning. As far as I can remember, he was no longer in the capital. How could I possibly know what's going on?"
Xianxian said, "After all, you are all from the capital, and you all come from noble families. I thought you were acquaintances with that marquis."
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "There are many people in the capital, and even relatives from different families may not know everyone. Besides, Marquis Jingning hasn't been back to the capital for many years. By the way, why are you asking this?"
Xianxian said regretfully, "I always thought Lord Yang was wronged, and I thought the Marquis sent by the court would be able to find out his injustice. Who knew that this was ultimately my own wishful thinking."
Ji Yunshu looked at her and asked, "Do you still believe Lord Yang? Or do you believe the evidence those people found?"
Xianxian smiled bitterly and said, "For people like us, it doesn't matter whether we believe it or not. I'm just worried that without General Yang, what will ordinary people do if the Japanese pirates attack in the future?"
Ji Yunshu said, "The court will send someone to replace him and protect the people here. You don't have to worry."
Xianxian looked listless, and it was obvious that Ji Yunshu's words did not comfort her.
She asked worriedly, "Is there really any evidence? Could it be that someone is framing General Yang?"
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Yes, there is solid evidence."
What Qi Zheng got was the Japanese pirates' account book, which clearly recorded every transaction between Yang Zhen and the Japanese pirates.
Ji Yunshu also suspected that someone had framed him, but Zhao Shen said that the account book looked real at first glance.
So if it wasn't Yang Zhen, then someone else must have made a deal with the Japanese pirates.
Such a large transaction would leave traces no matter who made it.
Ji Yunshu first thought of this ship. She felt that there must be a connection between them, but she had not figured it out yet.
Xianxian seemed very surprised and looked unwilling to believe it.
This is no wonder. The anti-Japanese hero who has always been seen by people has become a spy for the enemy.
Many people can't accept it.
"Is there really no need to investigate further? Lord Yang is truly a good official. I have never seen a better official than him."
Ji Yunshu spread his hands. "It's no use telling me that. If you really think he's wronged, you can find evidence. The court doesn't really care whether Lord Yang made deals with the pirates. If it wasn't him, it would have been someone else, right?"
This is quite straightforward.
Xianxian smiled and said, "As a woman making a living in a place like this, where can I find any evidence? The Marquis of Jingning doesn't even know Lord Yang, so I don't think he would wrongly accuse him."
Ji Yunshu nodded: "Yes, this case caused quite a stir in the capital. I didn't expect it to be closed like this."
Xianxian looked a little dazed: "Of course not, this is Hangzhou, not Beijing."
Ji Yunshu glanced at her, and she immediately came back to her senses: "I lost my composure, please forgive me, sir."
Ji Yunshu waved his hand: "It's nothing, it's just that you care about Lord Yang so much, does it really have nothing to do with him?"
Xianxian leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Lord Yang has only been here twice. What does that have to do with me? I've only seen him once."
Ji Yunshu's heart beat faster. What she meant was that Yang Zhen didn't come here for her.
So her previous guess was correct. Yang Zhen was after the flower boat itself, or other people, but definitely not just for Xianxian.
"Is that so? Then it seems that General Yang is doomed to die."
Xianxian didn't say anything else, so Ji Yunshu went to find Qingyu, but she was lost in thought while watching Qingyu dancing.
After being here for so long, they still didn't gain anything on the flower boat, so today Ji Yunshu asked Zhao Shen to find a way to delay Yu Shiyi and prevent him from coming here.
Sure enough, without Yu Shiyi watching over her, Xianxian became different.
What she said was also very interesting.
Ji Yunshu pondered the meaning of her words bit by bit.
Qingyu is just aloof in nature, and she will do whatever she needs to do.
Just like now, even though it was obvious that Ji Yunshu was absent-minded, she still danced two dances seriously.
When she stopped, she was slightly out of breath, bowed to Ji Yunshu, and wanted to leave.
Who would have thought that Ji Yunshu, who used to just watch her dance and not bother her, would suddenly keep her.
