Unless, their attack on the Wu family is related to his Ji family.

Then we can’t just ignore Ji Mingshuang!

As soon as Ji Mingshuang left, Ji Yunxi came out.

Wanxiang immediately came forward to confirm her safety: "Miss."

Ji Yunxi shook her head: "I'm fine."

She looked at the direction where Seventh Brother left. Although she knew the problem was not serious, she was still worried. "You go with me and take a look."

"But..." Wanxiang hesitated for a moment, met Ji Yunxi's eyes, and immediately clasped her fists and followed her.

She is the young lady's maid, and she does whatever the young lady says.

After Ji Mingshuang and Wanxiang left, only a few scattered corpses and two people looking at each other through the door were left in the side yard.

Xuezhu, who had been enduring in secret for a long time, jumped out with a broom and wanted to sweep away the dirt in the side yard.

Wu Wei'an glanced at him and said, "Go away."

Xuezhu said "oh" and retreated with the broom in her arms, feeling aggrieved.

Wu Weian was wearing pajamas and wrapped in a quilt. He looked like he was awakened by the noise after falling asleep.

Of course, it just looks like that.

He was very tall and was wrapped in a quilt, with a corner of the quilt hanging down to his calf without touching the ground.

Wu Weian walked out of the room slowly and bowed slightly to Ji Yunxi: "The third lady is indeed on time."

Ji Yunxi tilted her chin slightly towards him: "You're welcome."

Wu Weian cast a half-smile on her face and found that she was not afraid at all when she saw the dead bodies on the ground.

He half-crouched down, searching through the corpses one by one, asking as he went, "Someone wants me dead. Do you know why, Miss San?"

Ji Yunxi followed him and stood aside, looking down at him and said, "Someone doesn't want me to get married."

"Oh, why?"

Ji Yunxi was very anxious to get married, and she did not hide this at all.

Judging from her personality, she was so impatient, there must be something behind it that Wu Weian didn't know.

Ji Yunxi was quiet for a moment, but she didn't hide it from him: "Ten days from now, on the third day of the twelfth lunar month, the Taishi Bureau will observe the stars. If the Red Luan star is moving, it will be a good time for you to have children and spread your branches."

It is advisable to expand the family, so the audition will proceed as usual.

Wu Wei'an was a little surprised, but after a moment of reflection, he smiled and praised, "This game is quite good."

Indeed, it took three years to set up the chess game.

If she hadn't traveled through a book and hadn't had a golden finger, she would have been tricked too.

Wu Weian asked again: "How did the third lady know?"

Judging from what the other members of the Ji family did, it seemed that she was the only one who knew.

Ji Yunxi watched him turn the body over, took a few steps, avoided it, and asked instead of answering, "Sir, how did you know that someone was assassinated tonight?"

Wu Weian chuckled and said nothing more.

Both of them have secrets and tacit understanding.

Ji Yunxi looked at the corpses in the yard and asked him, "So what do you think?"

Wu Weian searched the pockets of the corpse from top to bottom.

It’s a pity that these killers don’t have anything valuable on them.

But he still carefully searched every pocket, and while doing so, he took the time to reply: "I only agreed to the marriage, but whether it will eventually come to fruition is not my responsibility."

Ji Yunxi didn't even raise her eyebrows, and replied with one word: "Okay."

Wu Wei'an added, "I will not be participating in the affairs of the imperial court for the time being. I must first prepare for the imperial examination next year."

This is the best. Ji Yunxi nodded: "Very good."

Wu Wei'an sighed, not knowing when to quit while he was ahead: "The Wu family is short of money."

Ji Yunxi: "Don't worry."

These two simple words have a strangely soothing effect.

Wu Wei'an felt that his heart, which had been worried about money all day, was instantly at peace: "Okay, I'll ask my father to come and propose marriage."

This is the result that Ji Yunxi has been waiting for for several days.

But when she finally got it, she felt no wavering.

Ji Yunxi bowed gently towards him, without any sadness or joy: "Thank you, Anlang."

Wu Wei'an took out a piece of paper from the black-clothed man's pocket and said with a sincere and affectionate smile, "You're welcome, Yunniang."

He used the moonlight to smooth out the paper bit by bit.

There was a portrait of him on it, and a few small words written in the lower right corner -

'Wu family, Wu Wei'an'

Wu Wei'an glanced at it for a few seconds, then stood up and handed it to Ji Yunxi: "Take a look, is this handwriting familiar to you?"

Ji Yunxi took it, took a look at it, and pursed her lips.

Wu Weian put the bodies back in their original state and looked at her expression: "Whose is it?"

Ji Yunxi lowered her eyebrows: "My seventh brother."

In fact, she knew that someone had bad intentions when the dandy boy used her seventh brother's name to do some tricks to Wu Weian.

When she saw the paper with extremely familiar handwriting and drawings, she understood everything.

All the previous little fights were for tonight.

The person behind the scenes hired a killer to kill Wu Weian, and left a piece of paper like this on the murderer, pointing the finger at Ji Mingshuang.

In order to prevent his sister from getting married, Ji Mingshuang hired someone to kill Wu Weian. The reason was reasonable and the evidence was solid.

If Wu Weian really died tonight.

Then, Ji Yunxi would probably not be able to escape the fate of entering the palace, and Ji Mingshuang would also be thrown into prison.

Given the Ji family's attitude towards their relatives, they will definitely try their best to rescue the person.

And the person hiding behind the scenes might be able to use Ji Mingshuang as bait to take down a few more members of the Ji family.

Everything is connected to each other, and it can fully understand people's hearts.

Ji Yunxi curled the corners of her lips, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes, and said nothing.

Wu Wei'an asked: "Can you guess who it is?"

Ji Yunxi tore the paper into pieces bit by bit: "I do have a candidate in mind."

Wu Wei'an hummed: "Speak."

Ji Yunxi was not polite: "Yang Weitian."

Wu Weian suddenly turned around and looked at her.

Don't say anything, just watch.
