Chapter 17 Ratcheting Swords
Ji Yanran came to her senses for a while. The pain came and went quickly, but in just a moment, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
This true master’s memory is not only difficult to use, but also causes trouble anytime and anywhere.
But it seemed that she thought of something important. Could it be Chang Ning...
Before she could think about it, her thinking was interrupted.
Hu Yu stepped forward and said, "If the female donor feel uncomfortable, go straight down the mountain!"
Ji Yanran raised her head and found that there was a monk sitting cross-legged in Tallinn not far away, and there were many people in official uniforms standing opposite him. Those people stretched out their fingers and pointed at them very impolitely, obviously scolding the monk.
Hu Yu must have mistakenly thought that she would scream when she saw this scene.
"The court is asking Master Shi Kong about Princess Chang Ning."
Ji Yanran met those bright eyes, and he seemed to be reminding her something, blinking intentionally.
After looking at each other for a while, she still couldn't remember anything. No matter how much he had a huge affection, she could do nothing.
Ji Yanran tentatively said: "Does the court still think that Master Shi Kong harmed Princess Changning?"
Gu Si was a little surprised: "Don't you know?"
Ji Yanran smiled, she just felt very strange. Princess Chang Ning had been dead for ten years, so why did these people still look like they wanted to capture Master Shi Kong for trial?
It has been ten years since I was punished and released without guilt. Isn’t this matter long ago settled?
Ji was not talking, but his eyes looked around, as if he was about to see something. Gu Si couldn't help but wonder, is this really the Ji family?
Before the age of six, Ji became stupid and unattainable. He was either stupid or ignorant, or he acted like a shrew, beating and scolding people at every turn, making the Ji family chaotic and unable to live in peace. He even made trouble in the government office where Lord Ji worked. Almost everyone in the capital knew that Ji was old enough to get married, so no one cared about it.
Before Lord Ji was exiled, he arranged the place for this precious daughter, but Ji forced the clan to drive her out of the capital and turned to join the Jiang family in Hedong. When he heard that the Jiang family gave her to Li Yong, he had already wiped this person out of his mind, because no matter what, her ending would not be good.
I didn't expect to meet Ji today, and I even watched such a good show.
She seemed to be doing well in the Li family, and even Li Lu dared to plot.
Did he not know her at all before?
Gu Si narrowed his eyes: "Wu Chao is a presumption of guilt. Since Master Shi Kong cannot escape his crime, he has to be interrogated. The court asked at least a dozen times a year, and at most... it depends on the mood of the adults in the government office."
"Princess Changning is the heart of the Empress Dowager, the pearl in the Lin family's hand..." When Gu Si stopped here, a little calmness appeared in his eyebrows, as if he had changed his personal life, but soon his eyebrows raised and he turned back to his former appearance, "Whoever finds out this case will definitely rise to the top."
Ji Yanran understood, so, would someone have to make a fuss, because this is the biggest shortcut to promotion?
Most of the people who want to advance with this case are speculative. If they can summarize all the people who have encountered this case for ten years, they can make a lightning rod, and she must stay away from it in the future. What about the buns in front of her? Do you also want to use this to seek benefits...
Thinking of this, Ji Yanran quickly took action and took two steps back.
Gu Si raised his eyebrows. What does she mean? He was so close to her that he was not afraid of being cheated. Instead, she looked cautious... This is not very consistent.
"What is the mage looking at?"
Gu Si was not careful and found that Ji had gone to find the little monk and spoke respectfully.
Hu Yu said: "It was the chess game left by Princess Changning for Master. No matter where he was in these years, Master will take a look at him for several hours every day."
"Does the mage want to unravel this chess game?"
Hu Yu shook his head: "This game of chess has been played, and the master is just considering the results..."
Master Shi Kong was very focused and ignored the scolding of the people around him. The few people standing there were no patience. One of them snatched the whip from the servants, raised his hand and pulled it to Master Shi Kong.
"stop."
Ji Yanran felt a flash in front of her eyes, and the bun next to her had already rushed out.
That man didn't care about this. The old monk in front of him had exhausted his patience and did not teach him any lessons. This monk would not say anything.
He swung his arms and pulled it down. The whip made a crisp sound in the air, but it didn't fall on Master Shikong's face as he thought. The whip suddenly stretched out, and the strength he had added on it was removed in an instant.
The man looked behind him angrily, and the young man in his twenties stood there. The young man looked slightly provocative, Zhang Yang was provocative.
The man immediately had red eyes: "Who are you? How dare you..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Si pulled the whip with two fingers and completely snatched the whip. The flying whip hit the man's jaw.
"Looking for death." The guard next to the man saw this and punched Gu Si. Before his fist had fallen, he felt a pain in his waist and abdomen, and his body flew backwards and then landed heavily on the ground.
"Amitabha." The monks clasped their hands together and recited the Buddha's words.
"Come on, arrest him," the man pointed at Gu Si with his chin, "and he actually beat the imperial court official, and I want to punish him."
Gu Si bent his lips when he heard this, and he smiled sweetly for a moment.
Several people didn't dare to step forward.
"Who are you? What are you asking," the man's aura was frustrated, and he immediately looked around, and immediately several figures rushed out from not far away.
"Grandma San, let's go!" Mother Rong took Ji Yanran's hand.
"Wait a little longer."
The master and servant hid to the side.
The Buddhist holy land suddenly became tense, and more than a dozen people surrounded Gu Si. The situation reversed, and the person wearing official uniform immediately laughed: "How did Qishan Temple raise a villain?"
As soon as the man finished speaking, several figures flashed. Several people wearing red short brown, black fast boots, and wearing scimitars appeared in the Tallinn. They looked expressionless, like statues, standing there respectfully, waiting for Gu Si's orders.
Before Gu Si could speak, he saw Ji quickly turn his direction and walk towards him.
This woman is really good at judging the situation. When she saw that she was sure to win, she immediately came to him.
Gu Si was about to instruct Chang Zheng to protect Ji, but found that Ji was not just for Chang Zheng.
Ji Yanran discovered that she had met an acquaintance. It should be said that she was the person trusted by the official of this body.
