After the two of them discussed it, Su Li immediately got up, changed his clothes, washed up, and went to Lian Ji's room to find her.
"Ms. Lian Ji, the Crown Prince has confirmed that Lian Yong does have a private weapons manufacturing operation at his farm outside the city."
"However, it will take time to obtain effective evidence. The prince and I intend to rescue your parents and brother tonight, and then send you away and arrange new identities for you. What do you think?"
Lian Ji couldn't believe her ears, her lips trembling, "Madam, is it true? Lian Ji can leave here with her family tonight and live somewhere else?"
Su Li sighed: "Of course it's true. Do you know where your father and your brother are?"
Lian Ji nodded repeatedly: "I know, I know where they are."
"That's good. Tonight, the prince's people will rescue your family and send you away..."
Lian Ji knelt down in gratitude and kowtowed solemnly to Su Li: "Madam, your kindness is so great, Lian Ji will never forget it!"
Su Li quickly helped her up: "Why are you saying all this? You've helped us a lot, and this is a fair trade, isn't it..."
Lian Ji shook her head. She originally thought that even if she told them about the underground secret manufacture of weapons and wanted to save them, Su Li and the others would definitely wait until the matter was over.
However, she didn't expect that they would choose to rescue her family first, so that they would not have to worry about their lives. This was no longer a simple transaction, but their compassion. How could she not be grateful?
Su Li continued, "You go back with Master Lian today. The prince will arrange everything in the evening."
"Lian Ji understands."
"Go back to your room first. If Asoruo asks, just tell him that the person you met last night was me..."
No matter what, nothing happened between Ji Tinglan and Lian Ji, so she had to protect their reputation.
It was dawn.
A slender figure gently opened the door. After entering the room, she saw Asuo sleeping soundly. Thinking of what Su Li said, she could sleep until dawn, Lian Ji felt relieved, undressed, and lay down on the bed to "continue" sleeping.
Until dawn.
Asuo woke up and found Lian Ji sleeping in the inner room. He looked confused and quickly woke her up.
"Lian Ji, why are you back so early? Where is Prince Ji?"
Lian Ji slowly woke up: "What Prince Ji?"
Asuo said impatiently: "Forget it, it's not important. Let me ask you, did you and Prince Ji have a good thing last night?"
Lian Ji shook her head. "Last night, I didn't see Prince Ji at all. I did see his wife, and she scolded me severely, telling me to stop coveting Prince Ji, otherwise, she wouldn't let me go, and she wouldn't let His Excellency have an easy time either..."
"What!"
Asuo frowned. "But I sent a message to the Lord last night. He will come to ask for your status with Prince Ji soon. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Lian Ji said innocently, "When I came back last night, you were already asleep. I called you for a long time but you didn't wake up, so I thought I'd tell you about this after you woke up."
"you!"
Asuo was furious: "I think you did it on purpose!"
As he said that, he quickly got dressed, washed up, and ran out of the house.
However, it was too late. Lian Yong arrived at the post station early in the morning and asked to see Ji Tinglan as soon as possible.
"Master Lian, is the road open?"
"Haha..." Lian Yong said with a servile look, "Your Highness, I just came back from there. The road is now open. There was a landslide in the area under my jurisdiction, which delayed your progress. It's my fault. Please forgive me..."
Ji Tinglan said politely, "Natural disasters are inevitable. It's not Lord Lian's fault. In this case, I will return to the capital to report to the Emperor. I will set off now."
"Master," Lian Yong hurriedly called out to him, "Master, have you forgotten something?"
Ji Tinglan looked puzzled: "What did this prince forget?"
Lian Yong cursed in his heart, Ji Tinglan had slept with his woman, but he still wanted to pretend to be ignorant and deny it, how shameless he was.
"My Lord, I was playing chess with you in your room last night, wasn't I? I haven't been home for a day, and my wife is very worried. Could you please let me take my daughter back?"
"Master Lian is talking about Miss Lian Ji?"
Su Li came in from outside: "Miss Lian Ji is very good at chess. Last night, I really got to see how good she is..."
Lian Yong was stunned and confused for a moment. What was going on?
What good chess skills? Last night, wasn’t the person who was said to be “playing chess” with Lian Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji?
"However," Su Li pretended to be puzzled, "after playing chess last night, I had Miss Lian Ji sent back home. Why isn't Miss Lian Ji in her room?"
At this time, Asuo came hurriedly: "This servant greets you, sir."
Lian Yong immediately asked, "Where is Miss Nine?"
Asuo said quickly: "Sir, the girl is in the house, just waiting for you to take her home..."
Lian Yong understood instantly, suppressed his anger, and bowed to Ji Tinglan and his wife: "So my daughter has already gone back. I made a mistake. I apologize..."
Ji Tinglan said coldly, "Even such a small matter can be wrong. Master Lian is so confused. I wonder if you are also so confused in your work?"
Lian Yong knelt down quickly: "My Lord, I was confused, I know I was wrong..."
Asuo was so scared that he knelt down immediately.
Su Li pretended to persuade him, "Sir, I think Lord Lian is just too worried about Miss Lianji because he loves her too much. So please be magnanimous and don't bother with him."
"Madam is right, Lord Lian, for your sake, I will not bother with you this time. There will be no next time..."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Master, and Madam!"
"Okay, go do your thing."
After sending him away, Ji Tinglan and the others did not stay long. After packing up, they set off towards the capital.
Inside the Lotus Mansion.
Lian Yong returned to the mansion holding his breath and kicked Asuo fiercely in the chest: "Bitch! How dare you play tricks on me!"
Asuo was kicked out, but he quickly crawled back and kowtowed to admit his mistake: "This servant knows his fault, this servant knows his fault, please spare my life, please spare my life!"
Asuo was both afraid and hateful.
She was afraid that the adults would beat her to death and hated the bitch Lian Ji for harming her.
"Lian Ji!"
Lian Yong naturally wouldn't let her go, and looked at her with a ferocious expression: "Useless thing, you can't even handle a man. Since you can't get close to Prince Ji, tomorrow you will go to serve Lord Yao. It just so happens that his new concubine just died!"
"Serve Master Yao well. If you make him unhappy, you know what will happen to your parents and brother!"
Lian Ji knelt on the ground, hatred flashed in her eyes, but her tone was still submissive and humble: "Lian Ji knows..."
She was very grateful that the Crown Prince's wife would send someone to rescue her and her family tonight.
As for Lian Yong, once his illegal manufacture of weapons is exposed, Prince Ning will surely be in trouble, and he will naturally not be able to escape. Their family's revenge will be avenged...
