Inside the Samsara Pavilion, Ahri and Shadow Two faced each other.
Shadow Two continued, "The Prefect's mansion is heavily guarded, with countless experts. There are also members of our Shadow Guard Battalion inside. If we really have to make a move, we need to recall those people first. I can arrange for someone to bring that person out first."
After listening quietly to what Ying Er said, Ah Li understood that this person thought she liked Ji Xianlin.
She raised her hand and put it around Shadow Two's neck, saying, "Now that you've brought him out, what are you going to do with him? Do you want me to take him in as well?"
Shadow Two's face, hidden behind the mask, eventually turned black.
He refused.
The next second, Ahri used her own mask to bump into Shadow Two's mask, and she said, "Idiot, are you really that magnanimous?"
Shadow Two didn't respond. Instead, he picked up Ah Li and sat her down on the chair.
Ah Li sat on his lap, held his hand, and said coldly, "Have someone tell Ji Yun that someone wants his life, and also the lives of everyone in the Prefect's mansion. Master has already agreed."
As soon as Ahri finished speaking, a dark figure flew out of the Samsara Pavilion.
Shadow Two slowly placed his hand on Ahri's waist, "Aren't you afraid your master will punish you?"
Ah Li raised her hand and untied Ying Er's hair, saying, "Master agreed, but didn't say we can't notify that person."
Shadow Two's hair fell down; it was long and beautiful.
Ahri wrapped Ying Er's hair around her fingertips. She was a vicious female supporting character, so of course she had to cause some trouble for the female lead.
Furthermore, Ji Yun is the prefect of Yutai County, and he is also one of their master's men.
The Shadow Guard Camp wasn't located in a very remote area, and with so many children being sent there regularly, plus the fact that they went out on missions, it wasn't uncommon for people to discover clues and track down the Shadow Guard Camp.
Ji Yun will help deal with the people who tracked down the Shadow Guard Camp.
After all, there is a secret Shadow Guard battalion that is trained and hidden in the shadows to carry out assassinations, and every exposure could bring annihilation.
If a different prefect were appointed, who knows if that person would still be obedient or cooperative?
Shadow Two lowered his eyes, letting Ahri play with his long hair.
The Samsara Pavilion fell silent again, leaving only the two people embracing each other.
Inside Qianjin Tower, however, things were far from peaceful.
Because Ji Yun has arrived.
He came alone. He stood in front of Yin Ruyue's bed and looked at Yin Ruyue, who was fast asleep.
Even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness; this person is truly heartless.
Yin Ruyue finally got a good night's sleep, but in her dream, she felt as if she were being entangled by a poisonous snake.
Yin Ruyue opened her eyes feeling very uncomfortable, only to find Ji Yun sitting by her bedside, and she couldn't move!
Ji Yun's hand was on her face, stroking her hair, as if toying with a helpless lamb. He smiled contemptuously: "Awake?"
Yin Ruyue was horrified. "Why are you here?"
"Ruyue, although Qianjinlou is not under my jurisdiction, I am still useful to them."
"You, you're all in cahoots! You've all been lying to me!"
No wonder everything went so smoothly.
Ji Yunxiao watched Yin Ruyue's frenzied state and said slowly, "That man didn't lie to you. He promised to wipe out the entire Ji family. But you're one of them. So he's in a dilemma. Should he kill you too if he wipes out the whole family?"
Yin Ruyue watched helplessly as a sinister smile appeared on Ji Yun's face. Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. "Ji Yun, I will not let you go! I will kill you, I will definitely kill you!"
Ji Yun took out a handkerchief and covered Yin Ruyue's mouth and nose directly. "Then I'll wait and see."
The handkerchief was laced with a sleeping potion. Yin Ruyue tried desperately to struggle, but she couldn't move or do anything, and tears kept flowing from the corners of her eyes.
At that moment, Ahri and Shadow Two appeared in the room together. She said, "What are you going to do with this person?"
Ji Yun slowly removed the handkerchief, seemingly without any affection for her, and said coldly, "She's just a woman. I'll have her sent away when I'm tired of her."
Prefect Ji Yun was a cunning and treacherous old man, but he had a handsome appearance.
"But you still need to take good care of her. She said at Qianjin Tower that she would wipe out your entire Ji family. She's still among your family members now, so the master won't order us to take action, but if something happens to her, then it's hard to say."
Another letter appeared in Ah Li's hand; it was a letter from their master to Ji Yun.
Their master sent two letters, one to the Shadow Guard Camp and the other to the Prefect's Mansion, addressed to Ji Yun.
Ji Yun stood up and said to Ah Li and Shadow Two, "Thank you for reminding me this time, Shadow One and Shadow Two."
In the main hall of Qianjinlou, there are now about a hundred boxes, each representing a life worth a thousand gold pieces.
Each box contained real gold, silver, jewelry, and jade, all for the safety of the Ji family.
Ji Yun chose to pay a fine to avoid further trouble. He emptied the entire prefectural government office and sold off many of his properties.
Ah Li suddenly spoke up: "I didn't expect that Prefect Ji would even spare the lives of the maids and servants in his mansion."
"Yes." Ji Yun didn't look at the box that had been opened in the lobby. All he wanted to do now was take Yin Ruyue away and ensure the safety of his family.
Ahri had someone bring her a bottle of medicine, saying, "Remember to poison her so she can't say anything she shouldn't."
"clear."
Ji Yun froze. He was afraid that Lord Ying would say something else and chop off her hand as well, so that she wouldn't be able to write a single word.
Yin Ruyue was taken away by Ji Yun, and like the original owner, she never appeared again.
And then there's Ji Xianlin, who still guards that little courtyard, waiting for someone who will never appear again.
?
Five years later, on a certain day.
This day is the Lantern Festival in Yutai County.
Shadow Two wasn't wearing a mask or black clothes; instead, he was dressed in dark blue. He was carrying his and Ah Li's baby and taking Ah Li out to see the lanterns.
The lantern festival in Yutai County is beautiful.
Ah Li carried a lantern in her hand, and Ying Er led her by the hand as they walked together on the bustling street. Their little one pointed at the lanterns around them and said, "Daddy, I want one too."
Ying Er picked up the baby so that the baby could see the hanging lanterns up close.
Just then, someone nearby called out in a trembling voice, "Su Li."
Ah Li didn't turn around, but Ying Er did look over. Then, holding Zai Zai in one arm and Ah Li's shoulder with the other, he pulled her into his embrace and said, "Wife, we should go back."
"good."
Ahri handed the lantern to Zai Zai, who smiled happily.
The baby is so cute, she looks just like her.
Ji Xianlin wanted to come over, but was blocked by the crowd guessing lantern riddles.
When he emerged from the crowd, Su Li, the man, and the child were no longer there.
