The greater the relationship, the more reasonable?
There was a saying that was true. The more one retreated, the stronger the enemy would be!
Jing Rong could not take this lying down.
He pulled back his injured hand and felt the white bandage around his palm.
The concave lines rubbed against his calloused fingertips, rising and falling!
He said, "Now that I've gone to Yufu, he still isn't willing to stop. How am I supposed to treat him properly?"
"So you already have an idea?" Mo Ruo asked.
He nodded.
He then repeated what he had told Lang Po before.
Mo Ruo was flabbergasted. "So what if you really managed to capture him alive and lock him up in the Supreme Court? Sue Prince Yi? But in my opinion, the news would be blocked before it could leave the Supreme Court. It would be impossible for it to reach His Majesty's ears. “
"When did I say I was going to sue Jing Yi? “
"Then what do you mean by this? “
"Jing Yi will definitely think of a way to kill that person. Only when the person is dead will there be no evidence and he won't have to worry about Imperial Father finding out that he is hunting me down. However, my goal is precisely for that person to die in the Supreme Court's prison. At that time, the Vice-Chancellor of the Supreme Court, Lord Yu, will follow my instructions and personally report it to Imperial Father. Although there is no evidence and the murderer is dead, there are some things that don't need evidence or results. Imperial Father is meticulous, how could he not notice something suspicious? Someone was hunting me down for no reason, and the murderer who was escorted to the Supreme Court suddenly died. Moreover, all these years, Jing Yi has been secretly working with the Chancellor of the Supreme Court. To kill someone in the Supreme Court's prison would be a piece of cake. However, even if Imperial Father understood this, he would still be worried that this scandal of the imperial family would leak out and end this matter hastily. But take a guess, will Imperial Father still treat Jing Yi the same as before? “
Mo Ruo came to a sudden realization.
"I understand. You are … giving your father a wake-up call!"
"You're not stupid." Jing Rong frowned. "Jing Yi's ambition wasn't something that happened overnight, but Imperial Father has never looked into it. Now, he doesn't even want to let his own brother off. Moreover, if Imperial Father thinks about it more carefully, you will find some clues about the Crown Prince's plan to besiege the palace. The Crown Prince is naturally timid, and he grew up by Imperial Father's side. How could he do something so stupid as to besiege the palace and kill the Emperor? There must be someone fanning the flames behind the scenes. Why was Teacher Pan, who had always been the Crown Prince's teacher, safe and sound after the Crown Prince's downfall? And on the very day that they left the capital, all seven members of the family lost their lives? As long as Imperial Father can think of this, he will definitely be more wary of Jing Yi. This can also be considered my filial piety as a son. "
Damn, what a touching speech!
For Qi Zhen Emperor to have a son like you, it's his great fortune!
Mo Ruo said in a low voice, "It looks like the wind of the internal strife has finally blown onto you."
"Perhaps."
Mo Ruo smiled deeply and began to tidy up the medicine box in front of him.
He asked indifferently, "Aren't you worried about Wei Yi's injury?"
"The fact that you came so quickly means that he's safe and sound."
"That's true. It's just that Wei Yi is injured and Teacher Ji is feeling very remorseful. I reckon that he will have to stay in Anfu for the next few days. You should take care of it yourself and quickly do what needs to be done."
"Mn."
Jing Rong nodded lightly and stood up again. He walked to the open window.
It was already very dark outside.
A lantern hung in the corner of the window. The light shone on a bird at the corner of the wall. The bird's wing seemed to be injured. It flapped its wings on the spot, but could not fly up.
The dark green leaf was swayed by the wind and fell beside the injured bird. The bird lost its tenacity to fly and began to peck at the leaf with its sharp beak. After a short while, the leaf was pecked out one small hole after another.
His gaze gradually turned cold. A cold aura flowed in his eyes, blending with the warm sunlight outside.
Strange!
It was also hard to fathom.
Only after a long while did he close the window.
He turned to Mo Ruo and said, "You don't need to worry about me. Go and rest."
Mo Ruo said, "How can I sleep at this time? Since you and I are both awake, let's sit together. "
"Up to you."
The two of them began to chat in the house. They were either talking about trivial matters or some old stories.
As for those old stories, they just had to skip the part about Kong Yu!
Neither of them mentioned it.
Outside, Tang Si waited for a long time without seeing Mo Ruo come out. She yawned and returned to Wei Yi's room.
Ji Yunshu was still by his bedside. Her scholarly face had obviously become much more haggard.
She glanced sideways at Tang Si, who was sitting at the table with her chin propped on her hand.
She asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"
"It's so late. Where do you want me to go?" The voice sounded aggrieved.
"This isn't a place for you to stay."
"Why do you people talk so strangely? Are you really fugitives who kill without batting an eye? "Tang Si recalled what Mo Ruo had said to her.
Ji Yunshu didn't reply.
After a while, Tang Si walked up to her impatiently. She widened her big eyes and pointed at Wei Yi. "Who is he to you?"
Curious!
Ji Yunshu's expression changed slightly. She spat out two words, "Relative."
"Oh."
She replied softly.
She asked again, "I saw that the arrow was aimed at you. Why did those men in black want to kill you? Who are they? "
Yes, that arrow was indeed aimed at her. If it wasn't for Wei Yi, how could her body have withstood that arrow?
Aside from Jing Yi, who else could it be that wanted to kill him?
She lowered her eyes in silence, not answering Tang Si.
Instead …
She stretched out her hand. "Give me back my thing."
That small wooden tablet!
Tang Si feigned ignorance. "What is it? Don't accuse me falsely. "
"That thing is very important to me. It's not for you to play with. Give it back." Ji Yunshu's tone was cold.
"Is that so?" Tang Si rolled her eyes and took a few steps back. Then, she took out the tablet and held it in her hand. She said in a conditional tone, "Then tell me, who gave this to you? I'll give it back to you. "
Ji Yunshu's eyes darkened. She covered Wei Yi with the blanket and pulled Tang Si out with a cold expression.
She gently knocked on the door.
"Miss Tang, this tablet was left to me by my mother. I've always carried it with me. It's very important to me. I'm very grateful for your help, but I can't give you this tablet."
"Your mother left it to you?" Tang Si didn't believe her, but Ji Yunshu seemed to have lost her patience. She obediently returned the tablet to her and said, "I've seen the pattern on this tablet when I was young."
"You've really seen it before?"
Ji Yunshu was slightly excited.
This was the only way she could find out why her mother left this wooden tablet behind.
Furthermore …
It was the only clue that could unravel her mother's true identity.
