"Is there any news from Duan Yunzheng?"
Thinking of this, Cui Qi couldn't drink the tea anymore, frowned and asked Qingzhu.
"Lord Duan has already ordered his men to start their investigation with the merchant surnamed Liu. He's easy to track down, but gathering information from the many places he's been might be a bit slow. And that Li... is very likely related to Prince Heping!"
Cui Qi's face turned cold and his expression became even colder.
Ji Changying took the dishes prepared by the waiter, took a look upstairs and left.
She thought Cui Qizhen came to investigate the cause of Cui Hao's death, but it turned out that he came here to sell grain.
It's bad luck that I met her.
Ji Changying was happy just thinking about it.
It seems that she accidentally betrayed the Cui family again, and it seems that King Ping took the blame for her...
After thinking about it for a while, she quickly discarded the idea in her mind. After all, Prince Ping's Mansion had too much debt and was not a worry.
After getting the food, she didn't want to waste any more time, so she hurried all the way back home before the sun set.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Ren Dongnan sitting in the yard wiping the blood stains on his silver knife.
"Something happened at home?"
Ji Changying frowned and looked at Ren Dongnan nervously.
He looked quite calm: "Don't worry, it's all been solved."
"But I can't figure out how you got involved with these lunatics."
Ren Dongnan frowned, somewhat puzzled.
Those crazy people from the Xiao family have always been chasing him and biting him, why did they go after the Ji family these two times?
Could it be that he was involved?
Ji Changying looked around: "Where are my dad and the others?"
"Your father went to Zhou's house, your aunt went to exchange vegetable seeds with someone, and the carpenter went to deliver something. They are not at home."
Ji Changying let out a long sigh: "Master, you have worked hard. This is the roasted lamb I brought back. I will heat it up for you later."
Ren Dongnan remained unmoved: "You haven't answered me yet."
Ji Changying opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Well, I can't tell you, right? Let's talk about it together! After all, I've been calling you Master for so long, and I'm going to take care of you until the end of your life! Why don't you tell me how you got into trouble with them first?"
If Ren Dongnan's eyes were intact, he would really want to gouge her out.
He cleaned the knife, stuffed it into his sleeve, and turned back to his yard.
"Call me when the food is ready."
"Okay!"
It was already good enough that Ren Dongnan was able to drag the person out and deal with it. Ji Changying had to clean up the mess at home by herself.
After she cleaned the house and heated up the dishes, Ji Fengshou, Mrs. Hu, and You Tianming came in at the same time.
They saw Ji Changying come back and before they could say anything, they heard movement at the door.
It was Ji Fengyi who was on duty and came back driving the ox cart.
"I knew it must be Ah Ying who came back. I could smell the fragrance coming from the house from far away!"
Ji Fengshou walked happily to the kitchen door, put his hands in his sleeves and watched Ji Changying stir-frying in the pot with a spatula.
"I brought it back from Shuiyunjian. I'll start eating it soon."
Mrs. Hu approached and said, "The food sold outside tastes different from the food at home. It smells delicious."
Ji Changying moved quickly and quickly heated up the food and called everyone to eat.
The Ji family has never had so many rules. While eating, Ji Changying talked about his life in Liangzhou: "Now my family also owns a two-story shop!"
Ji Fengshou was so shocked by his daughter's words that he almost spit out his food.
"Two floors? Really?"
Ji Changying sighed, took out the house deed from her bosom and slammed it on the table: "I already have the house deed, how can it be fake?"
The three of them took turns looking at each other, and Ji Fengshou felt jealous: "The elders are not as good as the elders, and the younger ones are not as good as the younger ones. These days..."
Ji Fengyi glanced at him, and Ji Fengshou immediately changed his tone: "These days are really enjoyable and full of hope!"
Ji Fengyi withdrew his gaze with satisfaction and handed the deed to Ji Changying: "Keep it. This will be your dowry from now on."
"...That's not necessary. Let my dad practice his trade in this shop! He doesn't have to go there often. He can just go for a walk around when he's free. How about that?"
Ji Fengshou was a little surprised: "Let me take care of it?"
Ji Changying nodded: "Well, you take care of it."
Ji Fengshou happily collected the deed and said, "You're not married yet! It's only natural that I'm your father!"
The father and daughter had discussed it themselves, so Hu and Ji Fengyi certainly had no objection.
"I have a colleague whose son is a sergeant in Tieling Guard. I've already invited him to dinner and asked him to write a letter to his son to secretly look for Mingxue."
Hearing Ji Fengyi's words, Hu was a little surprised: "That's great!"
"Give my brother a surprise then!"
Ji Changying smiled, hoping that Ji Mingxue would not be frightened.
However, during the conversation, Ren Dongnan had eaten most of the food.
When they realized what was happening, they quickly sped up their eating.
In the evening, Ji Changying was dragged out by Ren Dongnan as usual to practice exercises to help digestion.
I let her go home after I thought it was almost done.
Ji Changying dragged his tired body and ran to Wanfu Building in the county town at an extremely fast speed.
After receiving the letters from his boss and Wang Fugui, the shopkeeper Xu inside had been looking forward to their arrival day and night.
As soon as Ji Changying arrived, Xu Cai excitedly greeted her: "You're finally here! I really couldn't bear it if you didn't come earlier!"
Seeing that the deadline given by Han Dianshi was getting closer and closer, he still had no idea what to do. The yamen runners came over from time to time and said some threatening words. In just a few days, Xu Cai became very haggard.
Suddenly seeing Xu Cai's unsteady steps, dark circles under his eyes, and lifeless look, Ji Changying was startled: "What have you been doing these days?"
Xu Cai's eyes were filled with resentment: "If you don't come over, I'll be thrown into jail too!"
Ji Changying touched his nose and said, "I'll get him out for you tomorrow. Get ready to leave Gan County."
Xu Cai hesitated: "Can I..."
"cannot!"
Ji Changying refused decisively without waiting for him to speak.
This person is different from Wang Fugui.
Since others can threaten Xu Cai once, they may be able to do so twice or three times.
What's more, Xu Cai had tried to cheat Liu Shicong before. From this point of view, Xu Cai is not capable of this.
"Pack your things and leave as soon as someone comes out. Don't be greedy. Staying one more day will increase the danger. I didn't promise Master Jin to send you back intact."
Ji Changying left without any reluctance after saying this.
Xu Cai slumped back onto the stool with a look of frustration, then forced himself to cheer up and quickly got up to pack his things.
The next day, Ji Changying went straight to the county government office to find County Magistrate Zhang, intending to end the battle quickly.
With the badge on his waist, he had a smooth journey. County Magistrate Zhang was discussing with his subordinates the distribution of the reward for killing the barbarians last year. When he heard the servant report that Ji Changying was coming, County Magistrate Zhang was surprised and waved the person away.
"It's been a long time since we last met. Why did you think of looking for me?"
After not seeing each other for a few months, Zhang Ziru saw that Ji Changying's face did not look unfamiliar.
"Well, you're busy, aren't you? How could I, a girl with nothing to do, bother you?"
