Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 684 Confrontation

That's why she came here for this trip.

The other party's rejection was not unexpected, and Ji Wuyan was not annoyed either. She still looked at him with a smile, "Sir You...Sir You really don't want to listen to the chips in my hand?"

"No need."

The little girl was very scheming, she spoke secretly, and she was not aboveboard in her actions, which made You Feng unhappy. He was about to turn around and go back to the house. The little girl was really talkative. He had seen that the dead could be said to be alive, and the living could be said to be dead. It was not impossible to fool him into it with just a few words. It was the best. The solution is to ignore it.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he heard the other party's unfinished words.

She said, "Personally, I think Sir You should be very interested in it. After all, it is a matter of life for your beloved..."

You Feng's footsteps suddenly paused. His half-turned body couldn't turn around. There was a voice in his head roaring at him, "Go back! Go back! This girl is always good at lying! She's deceptive. His abilities are second to none!”

That voice was rational, and You Feng himself knew that for Ji Wuyan, a rabbit in fox skin, even if what she gave him was what he wanted, since it was a transaction, the price he had to pay would definitely be high. Incomparable. But even so, he still heard himself say slowly in a voice that was almost as if he was wandering outside, "Miss Ji, please come in and talk."

People have weaknesses. His weakness is telepathy. For this weakness, he chose to run an errand for the prince and join forces to assassinate a girl. For this weakness, he is now ready to join forces with the girl to pay some price.

Even if the price is high.

He invited Ji Wuyan to come in, sit down, and served tea. Then he stood up and walked to the door, looking around to make sure there was no one around before closing the door.

Seeing this, Ji Wuyan said, "Just leave it open." After thinking for a while, he added, "Xi Yu will pay attention. Apart from Mr. You, no other person will see me in Dali Temple today." ." She deliberately gave You Feng the illusion that she was able to come and go without anyone noticing because of Xi Yu.

You Fengyi said good, returned to his seat and sat down. He was not in a hurry to speak, and only made perfunctory greetings, "It's not the most important thing whether anyone can see the girl. The girl really doesn't worry about being infected by the disease during this trip." Really? This thing...can kill people."

Ji Wuyan stroked the tassels in the hand warmer, and his slightly drooped eyebrows hid the emotions in his eyes. After a long while, he raised his eyes and smiled meaningfully, "Master You has forgotten... There is a person in this girl's house. As for the miracle doctor. If he can't do anything about this disease, then the things His Majesty is counting on may not be able to do anything either. If that's the case, I still won't be able to escape in the end."

Miracle doctor? You Feng suddenly realized, by the way, the Ji family is not just home to a miracle doctor. It is said that he was the most talented young man in the Chen family for a hundred years. He disappeared for many years, and once he was exposed to the world, the Chen family immediately sent someone to pick him up. However, the miracle doctor didn't take it back, but he sent back a marriage decree. I heard that not only His Majesty was wooing her, but the Prince was also wooing her. It was really delicious.

If not, Lingxi wouldn't be troubled by this kind of thing.

You Feng was somewhat angry, with mocking eyes and a sneer, "Yes, look at me, I actually forgot that there are many talented people around Miss Ji. A mere epidemic must be as big as a small wind chill in Miss Ji's side." After all, even I felt that I was so yin and yang, it was really unkind.

However, this matter is indeed the source of all troubles, and even he cannot be calm. Ji Wuyan didn't seem to care at all. She was still smiling and stroking the tassel strap on the hand warmer with lowered eyebrows, looking a little careless.

The little girl's appearance is not alluring, nor are her facial features perfect in isolation, but when put together, on such a person's face, she always feels that she has a graceful bearing that others cannot learn from. She glanced over lazily, and You Feng felt like his chest was missing two beats - she was just a little girl, but the nobility in her eyes couldn't even compare to that of a noble girl.

In a daze, the little girl laughed and said, "Sir You. I heard that the day Prince Jiangdu suddenly died was Xu Siniang's day of rest. It was the Lord who asked Xu Siniang to do an autopsy by name. But is that so?"

It's no secret. You Feng nodded without thinking, "That's true."

"I wonder...what's the reason?"

What's the reason? You Feng was slightly startled. In fact, it was not a big deal. At that time, one of his subordinates came to report, and it happened that the prince's man was there, the man named Sangji.

When his subordinate asked if he had any requirements for the candidate for the job, You Feng was about to shake his head at that time, thinking that it would be better to hire someone with more seniority among the jobs on duty. Unexpectedly, the man named Sanji said casually, "I heard that Xu Siniang is a woman and she doesn't let men do it. Do you really think so?" Xu Siniang Youfeng naturally knew that. The level of autopsy was not to say that it was first-rate, but it was not easy to do it. When something went wrong, he told his subordinates, "Then please invite Xu Siniang to come over."

I didn't think it was an important matter at first, but when someone mentioned it at this moment, I somehow felt a little unable to express it. He picked up the tea cup next to him with some guilt, took a sip, and then said vaguely, "I don't have much contact with Zuo Zuo. I don't know many people, and I only know Xu Siniang... As for the matter of Xiu Mu, I I don't know, the servant didn't say anything in return, he just said he was invited." The second half of the sentence was true, he really didn't know.

However, the flicker between words is also true.

Ji Wuyan touched the heater in his hand, looked sideways at him, and asked with a smile, "Is this really true?"

You Feng was stunned for a moment and avoided this gaze. The way he looked at him with his eyebrows lowered just now, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, with a clear and unconscious charm, but now he looked straight over, there was no smile in his eyes, and his pupils were dark and heavy. Watching people's hearts.

It's as if no lies can be hidden.

In this brief confrontation, he was defeated first. However, he still refused to say what the real situation was. After all, the matter involved the prince. The prince and Ji Wuyan were probably already sworn enemies, and You Feng... Even though he was neutral, when he chose between Ji Wuyan and the prince, he No need to hesitate.

As an official in the government, you have many things you cannot help yourself with. There is nothing to hesitate about, and there is no need to explain to anyone.

So, he put down the cup in his hand, looked back and nodded, "Yes. That's true. Could it be that the girl suspects that I am using this matter to target Xu Siniang? There is no injustice or enmity. I have no reason to target a woman and child... …”

After the words fell, he saw the other party smiling lazily, "Oh? There is no reason... If this girl remembers correctly, I have no enmity with you, but you, your Excellency, also set up an ambush with the intention of murder. Could it be... this girl misremembered?"
