Ji Tang

Chapter 958 Undercurrent
Ji Song dragged his tired body back home. You Ning, who was still thinking about his troubles, was shocked when he saw his appearance!
"What's wrong with you? Why are you like this?"

Ji Song shook his head without saying anything. He walked into the room and closed the door from the inside. Without taking off his clothes, he fell asleep directly.

Ji's mother came after hearing the news, but only saw her daughter-in-law knocking on the door.

"Okay, stop knocking and let him have a good rest!"

After stopping You Ning from knocking on the door, Ji's mother lay outside the door, only hearing the ear-splitting snoring.He frowned and pulled the reluctant You Ning out.

"Mom, look at him. He sent his son to the prison of the Ministry of Justice with his own hands, and now he comes back like this, and you don't say anything to him."

"No, I have to wake him up!"

After saying that, he wanted to go back in a hurry.

"return!"

Mother Ji scolded: "Don't you know what kind of person your husband is? If he hadn't encountered some difficulties, how could he be so tired?"

"Go and call Daniel here, I want to ask what happened!"

You Ning was a little reluctant, but still went out to find Daniel, while Ji's mother was sitting on the stone bench wondering what she was thinking.
My son knows that he has done everything by himself since he was a child. He remembers that when he was playing when he was young, he cut his finger for some reason. Good guy, half of his finger was almost cut off, but the boy was stunned. He didn't say anything because he was afraid of worrying himself.

In all these years, he has never seen him so tired!
After a while, Daniel came over. At this time, You Ning's face looked a little ugly. He should have asked in advance, but he didn't ask anything.

"Old madam, did you call me?"

Daniel said in a buzzing voice.

Mother Ji tapped her cane on the ground a few times and said expressionlessly: "Where did Song'er go today? What did he do? Who did he meet? Tell me honestly. If there is any lie, If you say that, I will serve you according to the family law!"

Daniel's face turned pale, but he still gritted his teeth and said nothing. The head of the family had said that the family should not know.

Seeing that Da Niu didn't say a word, Ji's mother angrily tried to hit him, but Da Niu didn't dodge and was stunned.Ji's mother was even more angry when she saw this.

"Okay, okay, okay! It seems that no one in this family except Song'er can cure you? You Ning, go ask the family lawyer. I want to see how tough his mouth is!"

You Ning was shocked and turned pale, and hurriedly said to Da Niu: "You are telling me, you must be angry with the old lady? If you are angry, I will see how you can explain it to your husband."

Daniel pursed his lips, knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said nothing!

"call!"

Mother Ji breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Da Niu kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "I only want to ask you one question, where did Song'er go today? You have to tell me about this, right? Is this a mother-in-law? You still don’t know where your child has gone?”

Daniel's face was full of tangles, but he still said: "Imperial Palace, when we came out, the master was almost exhausted, and he was sweating profusely!"

"Mother, mother, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

"Old lady."

When she heard that it was the palace, Mother Ji's eyes instantly went dark. If You Ning hadn't caught the opportunity and quickly held her up, she might have fallen to the ground!
"Tell me, tell me everything you know. It's okay if you don't tell me anything!"

Mother Ji sneered and said: "Then I will crash and die here today, so that you won't have to explain to your master!"

"No, I said, can't I say that?"

Dan Niu was sweating profusely and was frightened by Mother Ji's cruelty. If something really happened, if the master knew about it, why wouldn't he be cut into pieces?

"I don't know the specifics. I can't go to the palace, so I can only wait outside. It's just that this time the head of the house took a long time to go. Finally I heard that he was called away by His Majesty. I don't know what happened after that. See you again. Lord, it became what it is now.”

Ji's mother turned pale when she heard this and murmured: "As expected, who else but the emperor could make him do this? Who else but him?"

Suddenly, Ji's mother raised her head and said: "Immediately send a message to the people in Zhuangzi. Please be honest during this period. If anyone dares to cause trouble, I will personally serve him. In addition, ask Ji Lu to come back immediately and gather all the family soldiers who can be summoned." Call me back. From now on, you can only do things in the house after asking me. Be loose on the outside and tight on the inside. Everyone should be in high spirits."

"Did you hear me?"

Daniel's heart tightened and he quickly said: "I know, old lady!"

After Dan Niu left, You Ning hesitated and said, "Mom, are you overthinking? If something really happened, my husband wouldn't have said a word just now. You are like this."

"Afraid of making yourself self-defeating? It was fine at first, but will something happen if you do this?"

Mother Ji sneered: "Haha! Remember, this family must not be in chaos at any time. You have been obsessed with money these years. Is that something our family is in short supply?"

"I will tell you today that everything in our family can be lost and thrown away, but nothing can happen to your husband, my son."

"As long as Song'er is here, those external things can only be gathered and dispersed in a blink of an eye. But if something happens to him, we won't be able to keep it no matter how much money we have. Run'er is still young, and Ze'er's thoughts are not here. What can you and I, a woman, do? What to do? Don’t think that those good friends and nobles can be relied on. That was when Song’er was still there. Once something happens to Song’er, believe it or not, they will be useless.”

"Maybe it will add insult to injury! People's hearts cannot withstand the test. You have to understand where the foundation of our family lies. Even if His Majesty gave him the title of Marquis of the country, which is out of touch with the world, as long as it is given by someone else, he will It can all be taken back.”

After saying this, Mother Ji ignored You Ning. This daughter-in-law is good at everything, but she is a bit petty. This is nothing in ordinary people, but in the current Duke of Xi's palace, it is somewhat lacking. It seems that she will need more experience in the future. Experienced.

In less than half an hour, the Duke's Mansion was under complete martial law, the door was closed tightly, and eight soldiers stood straight outside the door, holding horizontal swords in their hands, watching the people coming and going.

Ji Lu, the secret leader of the Ji family, also came to the house and directly took over the rights of Liu Laoer and Daniu.In front of this person, Daniel and Liu Laoer didn't even dare to show off.In the past, they could still joke around, but now they can only follow behind and wait for orders.

"Two wastes, is this how you protect the head of the family? It seems that you have got used to living a good life in these years, and you have almost lost your vigilance. In this case, after this matter is over, you will go to Qinling to stay for half a year. If It’s okay to come up with it, and let’s take care of ourselves at home from now on!”

Hearing Ji Lu's words, Liu Laoer and Danniu were shocked and shouted: "No!"

"Haha! It's not bad. If you dare to push back today, I will kill you on the spot. We put the safety of the family head on you, is this what you do?"

Ji Lu was silent for a long time and said: "The news just came out!"

"The Marquis and His Majesty entered the Jinwu Guard School. Chen Shou and Zhang Cheng were both kicked out. The head of the family and His Majesty were the only two people left in the entire school. Then there was the sound of the clash of weapons, which lasted for half an hour." "What? How is this possible? Does your Majesty want it?"

Daniel even fell to the ground, his eyes red and said: "Your Majesty, how could he..."

"It's not impossible. There are rumors in the palace that His Majesty is sparring with the head of the family, but the Emperor is sparring with a minister. Haha, we think we are fools! I'm sure that at some point, His Majesty may have had murderous intentions. , I just don’t know what happened in the end to allow the owner of the family to return safely.”

Daniel and Liu Laoer looked at Ji Lu in disbelief, wondering if he was joking with them again?

"Go ahead and tell all the secret agents in Chang'an to move and keep an eye on all sides. If anyone dares to make any move at this juncture, kill him!"

In an inconspicuous restaurant in Chang'an East City, Li Jing was wearing casual clothes, and Cheng Yaojin was sitting opposite him.

"Today, His Majesty and Ji Song had an operation at the Jinwu Medical School in the palace. Although we don't know what happened, this is definitely a bad sign. Even His Majesty, that boy Ji Song, is suspicious. What about us?"

Cheng Yaojin lost his usual carelessness about this matter, frowning and said: "That shouldn't be the case. Considering that boy's status in His Majesty's heart, it's impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible!"

"His Majesty has become more and more emotionally unstable in the past few years, and his suspicion and violent heart are getting stronger and stronger. We cannot sit still and wait for death, we must take action. Nothing will happen to Ji Song. He is our last resort. And this matter cannot be For him to be involved, he can’t even know.”

Cheng Yaojin's eyes were a little erratic. Li Jing glared at him and said, "Don't give me a bad look at this time. We are not trying to do anything, but we should let everyone in the palace know that we are not at the mercy of others."

"I won't be involved in this matter, but don't worry, although I, Old Cheng, are a bastard, I will never tell anyone."

After saying that, he stood up and prepared to leave. When he reached the stairs going downstairs, he glanced at Li Jing and sighed: "We are all old. No one dares to really choose until the last moment. You can take care of yourself!"

When Cheng Yaojin left, Li Jing sat at the table and said nothing. He didn't know what he was thinking.
"I'm not wrong, this old guy is just a slippery man. Besides, this matter hasn't reached that time yet. I advise you not to move. I have already sent the bastard in the family to Dengzhou, and you will do the same. Get ready!"

Li Ji, I don’t know when he came out from behind and sat down!
"Your Majesty is getting more and more uncontrollable. Although it is not the last moment, we still need to be prepared. Our fleet has now established a camp on the island where the expedition fleet settled. Where is it now? There are already thousands of people, and every household we have a relationship with has sent people there.”

"Wait until the spring of next year, and set sail immediately to stand in front of those who come after us. This is our real way back!"

Li Jing was stunned and said in disbelief: "When did this happen? How come I don't know about it at all? You guys?"

Li Ji rolled his eyes and said angrily: "How dare we talk about your attitude of not getting involved in anything like you did before? If you hadn't invited us out today and said those words, I would never have done this. speak out."

Li Jing had a wry smile on his face. He didn't expect that his self-conceited way of doing things would almost make him lose his way out. It was really
"Then what do you say now?"

Li Jing chuckled: "I hope you can get some people, right? You had a lot of good people back then, so getting 800 or [-] people is nothing to you!"

"Hahaha, it turns out that I am actually somewhat useful!"

Li Jing stopped laughing and said in a deep voice: "I participated in this matter, but my sons are too conspicuous, but my grandchildren are not a big deal. I will tell you the news later."

Li Ji nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news!"

Ji Song slept like a gloomy night, and the confrontation in just one day exhausted all his energy.It seemed that the matter was over, but he knew that it was not over yet!
When he sat on the bed for a long time, his stomach suddenly made a sound!

With a wry smile, he casually put on his coat and opened the door.

"Hey, hey! Who the hell is that?"

What left him speechless was that as soon as he opened the door, he saw Daniel and Liu Laoer rolling in. It seemed that they had been guarding the door.

"Master? You are finally awake!"

Seeing the happy two people, Ji Song asked strangely: "I just want to take a nap, why are you so happy?"

Without waiting for their reply, he waved his hand and said, "Why don't you go get something to eat? I'm surprised. Why are you so hungry after just sleeping? It's like you haven't eaten for three days and three nights."

He did feel a little strange now. He was really hungry, his stomach was empty, and his eyes were so hungry that he felt dizzy.

"Three days and three nights are not enough, but you slept for a whole day and a night. It's weird if you're not hungry!"

Ji Song was stunned, couldn't he, had he slept all day and night?How can this be?I feel like it didn’t last long!
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and hurry up and get something to eat. Do you want to starve me to death? You're not very eye-catching."

He doesn't care about how long he slept now. It's pointless. He should just fill his stomach and talk about other things.The world is huge, eating is the most important thing, and everything else is secondary.

Perhaps thinking that he would be hungry when he woke up, I had prepared a lot of food, and it was served shortly after. His eyes lit up when he saw the food, and he started eating without saying a word!
It wasn't until I ate three large bowls of rice that I felt better.He didn't dare to eat more. It was best not to overeat when he was hungry for a long time. He would wait until he was hungry again.

When they were eating just now, Daniel and Liu Laoer talked about what happened during this period. He didn't comment on his mother's actions and just asked Daniel to call Ji Lu.

"Homeowner!"

When Ji Lu saw that Ji Song was okay, he was completely relieved.If something happened to the head of the family, he really didn't know what would happen.

"Let everyone stop. Just keep doing what you have to do. It's no big deal!"

Ji Song drank tea and said casually.

"The head of the family, the emperor."

"Okay, Your Majesty, it's not your place to comment. Just do as I say."

Ji Lu looked unwilling, but still held up his hands and said: "No!"

"Tell me what happened that day. Did they take any action?"

Ji Lu knew who the 'they' referred to here, and said: "They met one after another in a restaurant in Chang'an West City. We don't know what they talked about, but when Li Jing walked out, there was no sign of dignity. Color, it can be seen that the harvest this time is not small."

Li Jing?Ji Song was stunned. This invincible military commander and an idiot in the court struggle actually thought about it?There are not many things that can make him feel relieved and let go. There are only a few things. It is not difficult to guess!
