Chapter 290 Desperately Looking for Excuses
Seeing that Madam Liu had fainted, Ji Changying finally explained, "Sometimes death is much more pleasant than life. Staying alive temporarily may not be a good thing."
Yang Tuozi was silent, not knowing what to say.
I always feel a little unwilling in my heart.
"This time, consider it your amends. When the reckoning comes, your charges will be less severe. If you behave well, you might even be exempted."
This made Yang Tuozi raise his head suddenly: "Really?"
"Okay, the credit for catching her this time will go to you!"
Yang Tuozi immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "There is a god above me. From now on, I, Yang Tuozi, will only recognize this master. If I disobey him, I will be torn into pieces by five horses and die a miserable death!"
He raised three fingers and swore immediately, looking very serious.
"I'll take her back to find medicine to relieve the poison in your bodies. She can die, but it's not worth sacrificing your family's lives. Starting tomorrow, you will keep a close eye on Zhang Xinyuan and the rest of Madam Liu. If you have any news, send it to Wanfulou. I will know then."
Yang Tuozi was moved and nodded solemnly: "I promise to complete the task!"
Last time, both Yang Tuozi and Zhang Xinyuan appeared to have submitted to Ji Changying's violent suppression, but she felt that Zhang Xinyuan was not very reliable.
When ambushing the Gale Squad outside the city, Zhang Xinyuan immediately asked Lao Luo to kill Zhongli Zhou to wipe out the lineage of King Ping, and he didn't think about the other people living here at all.
Ji Changying felt that this person was not a good person.
So this time when she came to Liangzhou, she first looked for Yang Tuozi.
In comparison, the last time Yang Tuozi recognized her as his master, the surprise in his eyes did not seem fake.
She carried Madam Liu out of the house and took off her disguise on the way. As soon as she climbed up the wall of Prince Ping's Mansion, a sword light stabbed towards her, hitting her vitals with the speed of wind.
Ji Changying dodged it with a quick move: "A sneak attack?"
Hearing her voice, the other party stopped moving suddenly: "Is it you?"
Hefeng quickly put down the sword in his hand.
"You are a secret guard. Why are you running here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping and protecting your master's safety?" Ji Changying looked at him curiously.
He Feng twitched his lips and said, "Thanks to you, half of the guards in the mansion have been punished. The prince has also strengthened the defense of the mansion, and I was specially assigned to guard the corner."
Ji Changying grinned: "Not bad, not bad, do a good job! I think you guys were really lax before. This is the palace! It's a good thing I sneaked in before. If it was an enemy, how many lives would your master have?"
He Feng said seriously: "That's right, girl!"
After he finished speaking, he noticed that Ji Changying was carrying a person on his shoulders: "Who is this?"
"This? I brought a gift for your heir. Is he asleep?"
Hefeng reached out and took it: "Follow me!"
The two of them went to Zhonglizhou's study, one after the other. He was writing at his desk.
Hefeng reported and walked in with Ji Changying. After putting the person down, he left.
Zhongli Zhou rubbed his temples tiredly, then stood up and sat aside. "How was your evening?"
"Not bad, huh? Master Jin is quite interesting. He'll transfer the shop to my name tomorrow. From now on, I'll own a big shop in Liangzhou!"
Ji Changying chuckled and seemed to be in a good mood.
Zhong Lizhou narrowed his eyes as he looked at her and was a little speechless: "It's just a shop, why are you so angry? Look at what you have accomplished!"
Ji Changying glanced at him and said, "Why don't you eat some meat?"
"...Okay, what's wrong with this guy?" Zhongli Zhou kicked the person lying on the ground.
"Take a closer look, does it look familiar?"
Zhonglizhou frowned, squatted down and looked at her carefully, with a look of shock in his eyes: "Madame Liu!!"
I still have an impression of Zhonglizhou, the nanny who was rewarded by the palace.
This nanny was punished because she accidentally spilled something on a noble lady in the palace.
Because the nanny had committed a crime, no one in the capital was willing to accept her. Finally, the steward looked around and threw her into the least favored mansion of Prince Ping.
Princess Ping thought that she was a maid in the palace after all, and the mistake she made was not a big deal, so she placed her in the backyard to take care of her.
Finally, Captain Kou wanted to hire a nanny for his daughter, and after much selection, he finally fell in love with her.
Princess Ping also agreed.
Thinking that the nanny who came out of the palace would know a lot and would not be badly educated, he gave her to the Kou family.
"What happened to her?"
Ji Changying did not hide anything and told the story in detail.
When Zhonglizhou heard that Nanny Liu had sent people to the Ji family, his expression changed again and again.
"What on earth did she do to attract my family's attention? She actually sent people to my house in the middle of the night to search through all the drawers and cabinets for something, and when they didn't find anything, she even tried to kill my father and my mother! I just can't understand it."
"I can't hold back on things. When I found out she was the one who did it, I had someone kidnap her. I wanted to find out why she did this to us."
"Wait!" Zhonglizhou interrupted her.
"Well, it's getting late now. Don't you have to go to Wanfu Tower tomorrow? Isn't it said that she might be related to the reward for ambushing me? I won't sleep tonight and will interrogate her all night long!"
Zhongli Zhou had a very serious face.
"How can that be? I'm so curious that I can't sleep until I find out."
Ji Changying shook her head and refused.
"No! Prison is not a place for a girl. Besides, people who are not from the military camp cannot enter. Do you still not trust me? I promise to tell you immediately after the interrogation."
Ji Changying looked hesitant: "Can't you be flexible and let me in too?"
"cannot!"
Zhongli Zhou refused coldly.
"Oh well···"
Ji Changying agreed reluctantly.
Zhonglizhou immediately called the servants over: "Take Miss Ji to the cleaned guest room and have a good rest! Don't neglect her!"
The maid replied respectfully: "Yes!"
Ji Changying walked away, looking back every few steps.
Zhongli Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, then his eyes hardened and he looked down at the person on the ground: "Someone come here!"
There was a ripple in the air, and a shadow knelt in front of him.
"Take him to the dungeon!"
He had to investigate carefully to find out why Nanny Liu had set her sights on the Ji family and whether she knew anything.
——
Ji Changying was lying on the bed thinking about how Zhong Lizhou was desperately trying to find excuses and found it funny.
Since the other party didn't want to talk about her mother's background, she would just pretend she didn't know.
Anyway, their family doesn't care.
Ji Changying flashed into the space. The black dog's eyes were dull and he looked hopeless as he planted corn and covered the soil in the holes on the ground.
Looking at the hole she had dug before leaving, which was now half filled, Ji Changying nodded with satisfaction: "Well done!"
The black dog chirped weakly, then sat down on the ground and didn't want to move.
Ji Changying was rarely full of affection for it. She picked it up and patted the dirt off its body: "Good dog! Well done. I'll take you out to play tomorrow."
When the black dog heard this, his eyes lit up: "Chirp!"
