Hu was a little surprised: "How much did you earn?"
Ji Changying curled the corners of his mouth: "Five thousand taels."
"so much?!!"
"It's not bad. Flowers are like that. Besides the initial investment, if you only have one pot of flowers of one variety, you can grow ten or eight pots. The cost will decrease over time, and apart from the gardener's wages, it's all net profit."
What's more, after her reminder, the pastry chef in the shop no longer obsessed with "sweetness". He updated his family's ancestral pastry recipe and developed many delicious pastries. There are always many people lining up just to sell pastries every day!
Hearing this, Mrs. Hu finally felt relieved.
With this money, even if I can't make a living in Beijing in the future, I will have the money to go home.
After reading it, Ji Changying pondered for a moment and wrote a reply letter to Wang Fugui, telling him that he didn't need to reply in the short term, and that she would tell him the address after she settled down in the capital.
It was midnight.
Ji Changying had just finished meditating and was about to go to bed when he felt that the atmosphere of the entire inn was a little unusual.
At some point, a group of dozens of masked men in black entered the post station.
Their movements were light and silent, and they all looked like experts. They entered the post station with a clear goal.
First, he captured a groom and asked him who the people who came today were and where they lived. Then he slashed the man's neck with a knife. His move was decisive and ruthless, and it was obvious that he was an old hand.
“Who is it!!”
Ding Shanyue, who had just finished peeing and was about to go back to his room to rest, saw a dark shadow out of the corner of his eye and immediately became alert.
This group of men in black didn't expect that there was still someone standing in the yard in the middle of the night. They reacted immediately, leaving two people to deal with Ding Shanyue, and the others went straight to the target.
The first person to be awakened was the one who slept in the same room with the groom. When he lit the oil lamp and saw that the groom's eyes were wide open and blood was flowing from his neck, he screamed: "Someone's dead! Someone's been murdered--"
This earth-shattering sound quickly woke everyone up.
Ji Fengshou was the first to react, running to Ji Changying and the others' room in his bare feet and not wearing any shoes. He knocked on the door: "Aying! Yue Niang! Sister-in-law! How are you?"
Almost at the moment he knocked on the door, Ji Changying opened it: "We are all fine, they are getting dressed and will be back soon!"
Seeing Ji Changying's calm expression, Ji Fengshou breathed a sigh of relief and didn't enter the house. Feeling the coldness on his feet, he was about to go back to his room to put on his shoes, but Ji Changying suddenly reached out and grabbed him, throwing him back, "Don't move!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Changying's figure had already disappeared.
Ji Changchuan just stepped out of the room carrying Ji Fengshou's shoes and was about to give them to him when he was greeted by a long sword flashing with a cold light.
He screamed and reacted quickly, rolling on the ground to avoid the fatal blow.
The man in black behind him chased into the room relentlessly with a sword in hand.
Ji Changchuan hid under the table and scurried around: "Sister! Help me!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "click". Ji Changchuan turned his head and saw that the man in black who had stabbed him with the sword had fallen down along with the half-broken sword.
Ji Changying's black iron rod was stuck on half of his head, emitting a cold and dim light in the moonlight.
"How are you?" Ji Changying lowered her head and reached out to pull him out.
"I'm fine! What's going on now? Why is someone suddenly trying to kill us?"
The journey was very safe. Ji Changchuan didn't expect that when he was almost close to the capital, someone would suddenly come to his door in the middle of the night to kill him.
"I don't know, go to my room!" Ji Changying pulled out her bloody iron rod and took Ji Changchuan back to their room.
But in a few moments, their room was already packed with people. Xing Wu clasped his fists towards Ji Fengshou, Zhou Yidao and the others and said, "Madam ordered us to protect you first if anything happens. Now that everyone is safe, I will leave ten of you to protect you. I will take the rest away to catch the assassin. Withdraw!"
There was no time to elaborate, Xing Wu left his people behind and turned around to leave.
More men in black were on Jiang Qianruo's side.
Ji Changying looked at the two dark figures in the corner: "Big idiot! Second idiot!"
Two people stood up.
"Keep an eye on them! If anyone gets hurt, you two will be carrying manure for the rest of your lives!"
Before setting off, Ji Changying waited for a long time but Ren Dongnan didn't come back, and she didn't know what had delayed him.
She had no choice but to leave a letter in the yard, and took Dasha and Ersha away, and by the way, she also released their internal strength, so that they would be safer on the journey.
If the two of them couldn't even do such a small thing now, Ji Changying felt that there was no point in keeping them.
When the two heard this, they shuddered and immediately agreed solemnly.
When Ji Changying saw that they were concerned, he ran to help with a stick in his hand. Hu Shi wanted to stop them but she didn't have time to say a word.
The small courtyard in the backyard was densely packed with people in black.
Jiang Qianruo fought back with a long sword while protecting Tang Qingfeng and Huang Lao.
She was furious.
These men in black are not ordinary killers at all. Judging from their moves and methods, they are death squads trained in the palace!
You know, the way to train these people was decided by her and Zhong Li Che together.
Xing Wu led his men to fight with this group of men in black. He got injured a lot and felt even more nervous.
These people's methods are vicious, and their attacks are hard to defend against. They don't care whether they are despicable or not. It is not like the fighting style on the battlefield at all. Moreover, there is poison on the sword. At this moment, he feels his hands and feet are weak and he can hardly hold the knife in his hand.
Old Huang cursed as he pulled out the things, scattering them while cursing, "You damned black rats, you follow me wherever I go! Did you get slaughtered so many times as pigs in your past life that you enjoy killing so much in this life? You're using all sorts of dirty tricks, so don't blame me for using some tricks!"
It is not a good idea to use poison when there are many people around to avoid accidental injuries, but now there are only these people, so Mr. Huang is very careful in spreading the poison.
Tang Qingfeng protected Mr. Huang and spread the medicine while retreating. "Master, this way! There are a lot of rats!"
Jiang Qianruo fought five people alone with a cold face, and he had to keep an eye on these people's tactics.
This was the chaotic scene that Ji Changying saw when he rushed over.
The people brought by Xing Wu did not look well. They seemed unable to lift the knives in their hands and looked very struggling.
"You little bitch! You finally came here, come and help! Those people are poisoned!" Old Huang's face lit up with joy when he saw Ji Changying coming over, and he shouted at her on tiptoe.
"knew!"
Ji Changying shook her wrist, and the chain swept over and wrapped around the neck of a man in black in front of Xing Wu. He waved his sword to block it, but she strangled him with both the sword and his neck. Blood gushed out and he fell to the ground.
With Ji Changying's joining, Jiang Qianruo's pressure was mostly relieved, and he could completely let go and kill to his heart's content.
