Chapter 168 Abandoned Son
At some point, Ji Qingyan left the grocery store behind her and went to the attic opposite.
She rubbed her eyes, gave Manager Ji a smile that was uglier than crying, and then made two gestures.
Following Ji Qingyan's gesture, Manager Ji saw the mustard hiding in the tree on the road.
Those two gestures, one of them means sorry, the other means, kill them.
Mustard's crossbow was aimed at him.
Manager Ji understood.
If he fails to kill Manager Wang and the disciple, Jiezi will kill him.
If I kill those two people, I will definitely be kicked out.
In short, no one from the Ji family should be involved.
Although he had made preparations for this a long time ago, when the day finally came, he suddenly found it a little unbelievable.
The second young lady was the girl he watched grow up.
She had been in poor health before, and it was he who accompanied her in exercising, coaxing her to eat anything, and watched her grow up into the successful girl she is today.
Now, this girl wants him to sacrifice his life.
He devoted his entire life to the Ji family, and was able to do something for the Ji family in the end. In the end, his death was worthwhile.
Yes, it has value...
Manager Ji looked up at Ji Qingyan with a faint and sad smile.
But he really doesn't want to die yet...
His heart sank, and his insides gradually broke apart, being gnawed by pain bit by bit.
Is this the ending you really want?
Having been smart all his life, he wanted to be smart again in this matter, but he was not given that choice.
While Jiang Xing and others were not paying attention, Manager Ji took out the dagger from his body.
In an instant, before Manager Wang and the Song family's followers could react, they heard two "pu pu" sounds and the sharp dagger had pierced through their bodies.
He was able to become the chief steward of the Ji family because he had some skills and knew where to poke the enemy to cause harm.
He drew his knife so quickly that before the blood could even flow out, the two men's heart veins had been severed and they stopped breathing instantly.
The two bodies fell backwards in disbelief, and there was a loud thud when they landed on the ground.
For a moment, all eyes were focused on Manager Ji.
Jiang Xing didn't expect that Manager Ji would actually kill Manager Wang and the disciple in front of everyone.
He raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes like a cold pond, depicting the coldness bit by bit: "What a loyal dog. Want to save the Ji family?"
Steward Ji held the dagger tightly in his hand, watching Jiang Xing approach, and replied with all his might, "I don't understand what the prince is saying. He, he and the other two are talking nonsense. I couldn't stand it, so I killed him!"
The crowd was so frightened by the sight of Chief Steward Ji killing someone right in front of them that they had already started screaming. Seeing Chief Steward Ji killing people, the people were all shouting, "Catch him! Catch this murderer! Don't let him get away!"
The crowd was noisy, but after all, two people had died, and more people were afraid that the situation would affect them and the people on the street, so more and more onlookers joined in the noise.
Jiang Xing glanced at the crowd, folded his arms, and sighed, "Since everyone is demanding that this murderer be apprehended, then my Prince Jin Mansion will accept the people's invitation today and help everyone vent their anger!"
After saying that, he raised his head and said, "Take him back to Prince Jin's Mansion!"
"I'm not going, not to Prince Jin's Mansion! I want to go back to my own home!"
At this moment, Ji Zongguan suddenly struggled like crazy, rushed into the crowd, and quickly broke free from the grip of the two guards. The screams of the frightened crowd became louder and louder.
Manager Ji looked desperately at the face hidden in the shadows opposite him, hoping that she could save him and get him out of here.
But the man just stood there with his hands behind his back, expressionless.
Suddenly, everyone heard a "puff" sound, and it was the same sound of a dagger entering the chest.
Jiang Xing thought that Manager Ji had killed someone again, so he hurried over, but the crowd had automatically made way for him.
When he looked closely, he found that it was Manager Ji who had committed suicide with the dagger!
He looked back in disbelief. The big trees on both sides of the street were shaking violently, and there was no trace of people.
"Manager Ji committed suicide! Oh my god! Run!"
"Another death, another death, don't come to this Chaihu Street!"
"Fortunately he committed suicide, otherwise who knows how many more lives would have been lost..."
"..."
Everyone thought that Manager Ji had committed suicide, and they were so scared that they thought there was some evil spirit befalling Chaihu Street today.
But Jiang Xing knew it was murder at the first sight of his gesture of holding the dagger.
Manager Ji ran quickly with the dagger in hand, but the man obviously didn't want him to escape, so he flicked his wrist with a stone or something. When he dodged and changed hands, the man in the dark found the right moment and made him lose control of the strength, and suddenly stabbed himself.
Is the Ji family behind this?
Jiang Xing looked at the empty branches curiously.
But since that person helped him and Nanny Yu was saved, Jiang Xing thought about it and decided not to meddle in other people's business.
He winked at Feixing, who immediately sent someone to the government office to report the news.
Lu Xuan had been comforting Nanny Yu and naturally did not miss anything in front of him.
She had already followed Manager Ji's gaze and saw the shadow on the opposite attic, and Ji Qingyan's gestures also caught her eye.
It was just that when Manager Ji took action just now, her attention was attracted by Manager Ji. When she turned around, Ji Qingyan had already disappeared.
Therefore, she missed the opportunity to expose Ji Qingyan in public.
He Mengfu quickly arrived with his men and took over the mess on Chaihu Street from Jiang Xing's guards.
Seeing that she could stop interfering in the matter, Lu Xuan took Nanny Yu and boarded the same carriage she had come in earlier.
After Jiang Xing arrived, they followed Jiang Xing's carriage and the ceremonial procession of Prince Jin's Mansion left.
Lu Xuan did not ride in the same car with Jiang Xing, but rode in a separate car with Nanny Yu and others.
Nanny Yu couldn't bear it and couldn't help but look up at her: "The prince is here to help us, isn't this a bit too embarrassing for him?"
She was referring to the fact that Lu Xuan did not ride in the same carriage with Jiang Xing.
Lu Xuan lowered his eyes and pursed his lips in a daze: "No. If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences."
Nanny Yu lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage in front was deliberately slowing down. Then she thought of the figure who had become thinner in the past two days, and sighed softly in her heart.
Lu Xuan finally had the chance to ask her, "Mammy, what did you come to Chaihu Street to buy today? How did they deliberately frame you?"
Anger flashed in Yu Ma's eyes. "We were originally planning to buy some boxes and bags before leaving today. I've always bought from this shop without any problems. Who would have thought I'd run into something like this today?"
Then she looked at Lu Xuan with self-blame: "From now on, I will be very careful, lest they find another opportunity to harm you. Everyone can see that they are using me as bait, trying to take advantage of you and are targeting you!"
Lu Xuan nodded, and then she said the words that had been weighing on her mind recently.
"It was the second young lady of the Ji family who did it. She is in love with the prince."
Lu Xuan lifted the curtain and looked into the distance.
Ji Qingyan also has some strange skills, but looking at her soul, she is not a ghost, but still a living person.
How does a living person take over the body of another person?
Lu Xuan was puzzled.
When I went to the teahouse that day, I didn't look at her much because of Jiang Xing. I should have stood in front of her and looked at that monster carefully!
But now, she felt relieved.
If Ji Qingyan was a good person, she would still be worried that if she attacked her, she would be retaliated against using her mysterious magic to fight back.
Now that she is an anomaly and has such obvious hostility towards herself and the people around her, she will have to let go when she finds an opportunity!
