Chapter 231: Home
"Master Kong!?"
Ji Mingzhu nodded, "Chuyi's skills are the worst among them, even inferior to Sixteen and the others, but Chuyi has one advantage."
Ji Mingzhu looked at Zhou Yunshu and said slowly, "He can study, take exams, and is also very good at socializing."
"So when he was eighteen, I had him study and take the imperial examinations, and I also tried my best to promote him in the court."
Zhou Yunshu frowned and said, "But I remember that it was because Lord Kong always opposed you and the Zhenbei Palace in the court that he was sent to Nanzhou by the emperor."
Ji Mingzhu showed a hint of sarcasm on his face and said, "If we don't do this, do you think Daizong's grandson will agree?"
There was a hint of surprise in Zhou Yunshu's eyes. Her grandmother had just cursed, right?
"Ahem." Ji Mingzhu coughed twice and said, "Why is it Xuanjun who is interrogating?"
Zhou Yunshu: "...Well, I slept too late."
It was very tactful, but Ji Mingzhu glanced at Zhou Yunshu and said, "Divorce is divorce. You can use it, but don't let him control you."
Zhou Yunshu nodded.
"Don't let him get involved in this kind of thing in the future. To put it bluntly, he's an outsider."
Zhou Yunshu listened to Ji Mingzhu's words and said seriously: "I understand, grandmother. This is the last time."
"As for the matter of the poisonous insect," Ji Mingzhu said to Zhou Yunshu, holding the teacup beside her, "I originally thought that having Xiuying and Elder Xue around was enough."
"But it seems we haven't done enough." Ji Mingzhu looked at Zhou Yunshu and said, "I will transfer Chushi to your side. She is an expert in both medicine and poison, and is especially proficient in witchcraft."
"It's Aunt Sai."
"Yes, but she went to the Western Regions. It will take some time for her to come back. During this time, you should stay at home."
"Although Elder Xue and Xiuying are not that good at witchcraft, they can still take preventative measures."
Zhou Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Things in the village haven't been dealt with yet. I was thinking of asking Grandpa Xue to stay with me there for a while."
Ji Mingzhu didn't ask what else was going on, but just said, "Then go early and come back early, and let Mr. Xue go with you."
"Or..." Ji Mingzhu looked at Zhou Yunshu and said, "I'll ask Chu San to help you kill Wu Ci before going to Nanzhou."
Since it's a threat, just get rid of it.
Zhou Yunshu shook her head. "Let Chusan go to Nanzhou first. The Zhu guy has been dead for a while. I'm afraid if we delay any longer, they'll find out something's wrong here."
“Grandma, do many people in Nanzhou know that you are here?”
"Not much, only my confidants know."
Zhou Yunshu nodded, "That's good, I'm just afraid of them..."
Ji Mingzhu held Zhou Yunshu's hand and said, "Don't be afraid. I sent Chuyi to Nanzhou for two reasons: first, to ensure that Nanzhou is completely under my control; second, to allow them to supervise each other."
Even Chuyi and her retainers in Nanzhou, people she trusted very much, she could not be completely free of suspicion.
As people move up the ladder, they see more and more, their power increases, and their hearts inevitably become bigger and bigger. Regardless of whether they will betray her or not, she always has to keep a hand for herself.
"I don't think Chuyi and Lin Sheng knew about the arms and ships being sold this time, but since they are responsible, they must take responsibility."
Zhou Yunshu nodded. Her grandmother had more say in Nanzhou's affairs than she did.
As Zhou Yunshu and Ji Mingzhu were discussing the next arrangements, Nanny Wang's voice came from outside, "Miss, someone has been arrested outside and specifically wants to see you."
When Zhou Yunshu heard this, she subconsciously thought it was Wu Ciyi.
She looked at Ji Mingzhu, who nodded and said, "Go and take a look."
"good."
When Zhou Yunshu followed Nanny Wang towards the door, Chunque appeared from nowhere and followed closely behind Zhou Yunshu.
Zhou Yunshu glanced at Chunque and asked, "Is it done?"
"Well, all right, Master."
In fact, it’s not entirely perfect, it’s just that the master is short of people around him, and she can’t delay the master’s business because of her own reasons.
Zhou Yunshu nodded, but when Chunque heard the man's shouting as she approached the front yard, her footsteps involuntarily stopped.
As soon as Chunque heard Wu Ciyi's voice, she felt as if poisonous insects were crawling all over her body, as if they were gnawing at her skin, as if...
Chunque gritted his teeth, watching Zhou Yunshu's back getting farther and farther away, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and held it in his palm.
When the skin was cut by the sharp blade and blood flowed out, the itching from inside to outside finally subsided a little, and Chunque hurriedly followed Zhou Yunshu's pace.
When the two men came to the front yard one after the other, Wu Ciyi was pressed to the ground with Chuwu stepping on his face, and his other hand was pierced by a long sword. If you look closely, you can see a poisonous insect in his palm, whose body had just been cut off by the sword.
Wu Ciyi's eyes lit up when he saw Zhou Yunshu appear. Zhou Yunshu thought he would continue shouting, but he shut his mouth instead.
"Sir, he said he is your friend." Liao Quan was standing nearby, looking at Wu Ci lying on the ground and said to Zhou Yunshu.
Wu Ciyi still didn't say anything, just looked at her with his face close to hers, and there seemed to be some unspeakable grievance in his eyes.
"Let me go, will you behave yourself?"
Zhou Yunshu looked at the young man on the ground who didn't let him follow her and said lightly.
"good."
As soon as Wu Ci finished speaking, Zhou Yunshu glanced at Chuwu. Chuwu moved his feet away and pulled out the sword that was pinning Wu Ci to the ground.
Wu Ciyi just sat on the ground, wiping his face, and looked at Chuwu hatefully, "Ugly freak! Are you jealous that I'm prettier than you?"
Everyone: “…”
Was that the point? Shouldn't he have cared about his bleeding hand first?
But there is no need to worry. Chuwu frowned when he saw the wound on Wu Ci's palm was beginning to heal with the poisonous insects surging.
Wu Ci stood up and dusted himself off, then looked at Zhou Yunshu and said, "Your family has quite a few talented people."
"So I said, don't follow."
"But you're my only friend here!"
Wu Ciyi felt very aggrieved. He didn't want to come in the first place, mainly because he was a little afraid of Ji Sheng.
But after Zhou Yunshu left, he was really bored in the village, especially since Zhou Yunshu had told him so many rules before, saying he couldn't do this or that, so he had no choice but to come to her.
There was something Wu Ciyi didn't tell Zhou Yunshu. He had left a small thing on Zhou Yunshu's body that had the effect of leaving a fragrance. The poisonous insects in his body could find Zhou Yunshu's location by relying on this fragrance. That's how he found Dongwang Village.
He just didn't expect that the people in Zhou Yunshu's family would be so fierce. Before he even got close to the gate, he was subdued by this ugly monster who fell from the sky. The poisonous insect didn't even have time to hit him.
"You're my dad's friend?!"
Xixi, Yuanli, Yuanyi and others ran over from the main hall in the front yard and just heard what Wu Ciyi said.
After seeing Wu Ciyi's appearance, Xixi said in surprise: "You are so beautiful!"
Wu Ciyi didn't quite understand what Xixi meant by "daddy" at first, but he understood the following sentence "You are so beautiful"!
"Thank you, you look great too!"
"Where did you buy the clothes you're wearing? They're so pretty!"
Xixi originally wanted to run to Wu Ci, but was stopped by Zhou Yunshu and held in her arms.
