Qi Moli felt better when he saw that the woman in his arms finally stopped dwelling on what happened just now. He smiled and said:
"It's news from Fencheng!
Your grandfather, General Lan, received a letter from the emperor sent by eagle a few days ago and has set off south.
Now, if we count the days, and gallop at full speed, we should be almost at the border of Xuzhou Prefecture!"
When Si Jinxing heard this, he became excited and said happily:
"Doesn't that mean we can enter the capital before New Year's Eve?"
She didn't know about this, and I guess the Lan family's grandmother and others didn't know about it either!
Later, she would go and tell them the good news in person!
The original owner had no close relationship with the Lan family, but was young and ignorant at the time and was deceived and cheated by the old lady of the Si family.
In her previous life, she lost her relatives since childhood.
Now that she has come to Longyin, she cherishes the opportunity to meet relatives in the Lan Mansion who are so kind to her.
She believed that if the original owner were still alive, she would definitely understand the Lan family's concern and love for her.
Seeing that he finally showed a look of joy on his face, Qi Moli's mood also improved and he said:
"Yes! Once we reach Xuzhou Prefecture, we'll be able to reach Jianzhou City in another five or six days!"
After hearing this, Si Jinxing became even more energetic, but her eyes were still a little bloodshot, and it was obvious that she had just cried.
The two talked about this matter for a few more words. Si Jinxing was looking forward to the return of his grandfather, three uncles and cousins to Beijing!
Qi Moli thought again of the people kneeling on the ground outside the door just now.
He couldn't help but snorted coldly: "Don't pay attention to what happened outside the mansion.
Those people are really unreasonable. Just because they don't want to drink bitter medicine, they force you to open the door?
We don't need those few taels of silver, but we won't open the door!"
Seeing that what she said was the same as what the little girl Luzhu said, Si Jinxing couldn't help but laugh:
"How could the dignified King Mo Ying be so petty?
They don't know about it, is there someone behind this?"
Qi Moli said unhappily:
"Me? I'm just petty! Why?
Although I was in the western suburbs camp, I also heard what happened in Jianzhou City!
Your good elder brother, Si Jinhao, although he was used by Si Jinchang, he deserved to die!
If he had cultivated his character and not given Si Jinchang the opportunity, how could he have been taken advantage of and thus angered General Si?
On the day of his wedding, he was driven out of the house, broke his leg, was beaten and kicked by the people, and eventually died an unnatural death, freezing to death on the street. This was what he brought upon himself!
If the young master of the Si family hadn't caused trouble, would General Si have let him eat less?
And as for Si Jinchang, I heard from Mo Qiu that he had contact with the third brother?
Oh, I'm afraid they are trying to replace it?
I think you should talk to General Si and be on guard against these things!
Besides, those people were not the initiators, but they were accomplices in spreading false information and rumors!
People like this must be punished!
That day, I wanted to pull the two of them out and give them a good beating to kill their arrogance!
In the past, I would never use words when I could use my hands, but now that it involves you, I have to endure it again and again.
I was afraid that these stupid people would put the blame on you as well, saying that you cast a spell on me again and made me whip the people!
I had no choice but to endure it as much as possible and quickly let Yuan Qiuzhi and others go, so as to relieve some of the pressure outside the County Lord's Mansion.
It would have been fine if I hadn't settled the score with them, but I was really upset about this matter!
What makes me angry is that they don’t realize how much harm they have caused to others because of their ignorance!
Besides, it hasn’t even been a few days since this happened, and he’s already turned around and asked you to do something for him?
If you want to beg, you should have the attitude of begging. They just kneeled outside the mansion gate and couldn't be driven away!
Is this begging or forcing?
The more he spoke, the angrier he became. He couldn't even bear to say a word to his own girl, but now she was being ordered around by those people?
What a nonsense!
Si Jinxing listened to Qi Moli's conversation and said:
“Yes, those who spread rumors are hateful, but those who spread false information are even more infuriating.
They clearly didn't understand anything, yet they joined in spreading rumors.
When you ask him to answer, he will just say: I heard that too! Everyone says so!
What can you do? The law does not punish the masses. How can you hold thousands of people together and bring them to Jingzhao Prefecture to question them?"
When Qi Moli heard the words "the law does not blame the masses", his face darkened.
Indeed, there are too many people causing trouble, how can they be arrested and questioned?
At this moment, Zi Su came in hurriedly from outside and said with an uneasy look:
"Miss, this is bad!"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing looked at Qi Moli.
Zi Su has always been steady, but today he is so flustered and reckless, I'm afraid something big has happened!
Qi Moli stood up, took Si Jinxing's hand, and asked Zi Su, "What happened?"
Zi Su glanced at King Mo Ying standing next to her young lady, and felt relieved. She said:
"There was a group of people kneeling outside, demanding to know when Jirentang would open, and the gatekeeper couldn't drive them away.
Perhaps they dispersed for a while when they saw the prince entering the palace.
Before long, many people gathered again!
Just now, a Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and holding a Buddhist whisk suddenly appeared!
He said...
In front of the people outside, he pointed at our house and said:
This house is filled with too much negative energy, and the person living inside is actually a demon woman whose soul is from another world and has taken over her body!
The people outside recalled the rumors from a while ago:
The second young lady of the Si Mansion, the Princess of Anping County, is the Dragon Roar disaster star, the reincarnation of a witch!
At this time, half of the street outside the mansion, including the mansion next door, was crowded with people!
What should I do? "
