Chapter 179, You disturbed my sleep
"Sir, the prince is here." The housekeeper hurried into the room to report.
Ji Houye and Ji Yushu looked at each other, and they both had doubts on their faces. But soon, I figured out the key.
At this point in time, the palace has been banned. Su Yuyue must have heard about Lin Qiusheng's accident and forced her way out of the palace. The prince was worried and followed him.
Ji Houye and Ji Yushu went out to greet him in person. Su Yuyue thought for a while and went out.
【Brother, can you take Hua'er with you? I also want to hear whether it was the third prince or the second prince who did it. 】
Ji Hua fluttered for Ji Yushu to hug him, but Ji Yushu had already walked outside. Ji Linfeng heard Ji Hua's thoughts and came over to hug Ji Hua. And said to Mrs. Ji: "Mom, my little sister probably wants to join in the fun, can I take her and take a look?"
“Go, by the way, it’s dark at night, so wear a thin cloak. Don’t freeze my sister.”
"Okay." Ji Linfeng took the cloak from Xiuhe and walked out.
At that time, everyone in the Ji family was paying tribute to the prince. "See His Highness the Crown Prince."
Ji Houye and Ji Yushu raised their hands to the prince at the same time, and Su Yuyue also bowed to the prince Bei Hengmo.
"Don't worry about it. I've already heard about what happened tonight. Sister Yu, do you have anyone to suspect?" the prince asked Su Yuyue.
Things happened for a reason, and the prince would certainly not blame her for leaving the palace before she could speak. He certainly knew how important Lin Qiusheng was to Su Yuyue.
Su Yuyue recounted everything that happened during the day. Speaking of the back part, his face was so cold that it could freeze with ice.
“I have just killed five members of the Lin family, which is a warning to Master Lin.” Su Yuyue said coldly.
The prince fell into deep thought. Neither Ji Houye nor Ji Yushu spoke, but they were thinking about the possibility of Taifu Lin taking action.
“Did anything unusual happen when you went back today, such as being followed?” Ji Yushu asked in a solemn voice.
Su Yuyue shook her head: "I didn't notice it." After saying that, she looked at Ji Yushu and said, "Does the eldest son mean that the Lin family did it?"
“Not sure, but I can’t rule out the Lin family either.”
Even if Taifu Lin wanted to take action, he would not do it at the moment when he had just offended Su Yuyue. Isn’t this the three hundred taels of silver that are missing here? Su Yuyue completely offended Mrs. Lin because of this incident. 】
【But it cannot be ruled out that it was the second prince who wanted to use the relationship between the two to completely make Taifu Lin and the Gu family enmity. Of course, there is another possibility, like the eldest brother said, being followed by the third prince's people, and then the two families would tear each other apart. He likes to reap the benefits of being a fisherman. This is a common trick used by the third prince. 】
"Then let's start with the dead." Ji Yushu said.
Just now, during the fight, two men in black were killed. We can start to investigate the identity of the person behind them based on their identities.
At this moment, Gou Yuan hurriedly came to report: "Master Marquis, it's not good. The body is missing."
“Both bodies are gone?” Lord Ji asked anxiously.
Gou Yuan looked remorseful and said: "Yes, they are all gone. I just went to negotiate in the blink of an eye, and they disappeared."
"It seems that the other party doesn't want us to know his identity." Ji Houye analyzed.
【Who is it if it's not the National Master? Gou Yuan was highly skilled in martial arts and could sense the movements around him without even noticing the slightest breath. Except for the Imperial Master, no one else can do it. 】
After hearing this, Ji Linfeng took a step forward and said, "Except for the national master who came and went without a trace, no one can take away the two corpses from under Gou Yuan's nose."
Ji Yushu echoed: "I also suspect that the Imperial Preceptor did it. But there is another possibility that the Imperial Preceptor defected to the second prince."
“What if I don’t take refuge?” the prince said.
After analyzing and analyzing, I can't decide whether it is the second prince or the third prince.
Su Yuyue had an idea and said, "Let Mr. Lin investigate this matter himself. If something happens tonight, he will definitely try his best to find the real murderer in order to reference my book."
After hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense.
Ji Hua happily clapped her little fleshy hands and agreed with Su Yuyue's words. 【Fortunately, Su Yuyue is now on the Ji family's side, so we lose a strong opponent. 】
The prince left and called Su Yuyue away. Su Yuyue looked back three times, "I, I'll come back tomorrow." She looked at Ji Yushu and said.
Ji Yushu nodded towards her and wanted to say a few words of concern, but thought about it and gave up.
Because it was too late, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep. Mrs. Ji left a maid to take care of Lin Qiusheng, and then went to rest.
Mrs. Ji did not give Jihua to Xiuhe anymore, but took her back to Wutong Courtyard and coaxed her herself.
After a few coaxings, the sleepy Ji Hua fell into a deep sleep. I thought to myself that I would sleep a little longer tomorrow to make up for the sleep I got tonight. As it turns out, that's not the case at all.
Bei Hengjin came to Ji Mansion excitedly early in the morning.
“Sister Hua’er, sister Hua’er, look at the puppet I re-carved for you.”
Bei Hengjin rushed into the room like a gust of wind, and Xiuhe had no time to stop him.
Jihua woke up with a start. She was dreaming of eating chicken legs. As a result, he was woken up by Bei Hengjin's voice.
“Ah, ah, Bei Hengjin, you disturbed my sleep.”
Ji Hua babbling and accusing.
Bei Hengjin trembled physically and mentally and almost dropped the puppet in his hand to the ground.
Mrs. Ji went to do her own business, and only Xiuhe and Mu Yu were in the room. Mu Yu was crying on another small bed.
Bei Hengjin's sudden voice also scared Mu Yu awake.
Mu Yu cried, Xiuhe hurried to comfort the one crying, Jihua didn't cry or make trouble except for babbling and complaining.
The sensible Jihua saved Xiuhe a lot of trouble.
Jihua is the young lady of the Ji family. The first person Xiuhe coaxed was not Jihua but Mu Yu, which made Bei Hengjin very unhappy.
At the same time, I felt very sorry for Ji Hua. He took the small clothes on the side and gave them to Ji Hua to wear.
"Bei Hengjin, you are not going to put clothes on for me, are you? You are still a child yourself? Can you wear them? Don't accidentally break my little arm."
Bei Hengjin: Don’t worry, I’m not an ordinary kid.
Bei Hengjin gently lifted Ji Hua's little arm, put on one sleeve, and then slowly put on the other sleeve. Finally tie the straps. The whole process was incredibly gentle.
While dressing, he was still minding his own business and said, "Sister Hua'er, if it's possible, I'd like to dress you every day."
"You think it's beautiful, I don't want you to wear it."
Jihua pulled her little arm off Bei Hengjin’s hand. The latter patiently raised her hand again.
“Don’t make trouble, I’m going to catch a cold soon.”
Bei Hengjin’s words were softer than his movements, and Jihua didn’t move for a while.
She felt pity when she thought that Bei Hengjin only had seven years to live.
“Hey, what a good person, why can’t he only live to be seven years old?”
Ji Hua looked at Bei Hengjin steadily. He was wearing a crescent white shirt today, and instead of wearing the bun that should have been worn at this age, he wore a high ponytail with the end of his hair wrapped around his hair.
Looking like a little adult.
