Concubine You Can't: The Evil Emperor Dotes on Qingcheng Concubine

Chapter 30 Another Follower

"A year ago, our family was a well-known silk merchant in Jinzhou. The family had a big business and had no worries about food and clothing. There was also a younger sister who had just reached Ji, and her parents were also very loving. We could have lived peacefully and beautifully until Huo Qing The emergence of shattered all this."

When Gu Xi said this, her eyes turned red, even after so long, she still couldn't forget the bone-destroying hatred.

"After he saw his sister on the street, he coveted her beauty, and forcibly snatched her into Huo's residence. Since Huo Qing's bad reputation was well known to everyone, after his father found out about this, he fell ill and died soon after. Passed away. Once my father collapsed, the Gu family's silk and satin village was left unattended. The relatives of the Gu family took advantage of the fire and robbed all the property of the Gu family. They drove my mother and I out of the Gu family. My mother also fell ill because of this series of blows. gone."

"But I can't fall down. I haven't taken back my family's property yet, and I still have my sister and mother to take care of. Although they all said that my sister was robbed into the Huo Mansion, she probably wouldn't survive, but I haven't seen my sister for a day. Corpse, I will not give up for a day. After going to the Huo Mansion several times to no avail, I set up a stall outside the Huo Mansion, selling cloth while monitoring the movement of the Huo Mansion, so as to rescue my sister. No progress."

Ji Zhuyu asked: "Since your family is in the silk and satin business, you naturally know that honesty is the most important thing in business. Why do you sell fake cloth to deceive people?"

A trace of shame flashed across Gu Xi's face, and she said in a low voice, "I don't want to either. When I was kicked out of the Gu family, I was penniless. My mother and I had to eat, plus my mother's medicine money, which was very expensive. I have no choice but to make such a bad plan. But the price I sold to them is not high, so I haven't made much money this year?"

"I didn't earn much? Then when you asked me to buy cloth, I opened my mouth and called out five taels of silver. Isn't that a high price?"

"That's because at first glance, you know that you are a lady from a rich family. There is no pressure to cheat you for a little money, but I didn't expect you to be a stingy one, and even got me beaten up by Huo Qing."

Ji Zhuyu glanced at him, and said lightly: "That's not stingy, it's my principle. I have long seen that there is something wrong with your cloth, and it is not worth five taels of silver. Naturally, I will not waste this money."

Gu Xi looked at her with dark eyes.This woman looks young, but her skills are first-class. She can tell that his cloth is fake, and she can predict that he will come back to her.Is it right or wrong to ask her to cooperate.

"Now my mother wants to die because of my younger sister. In order to save my younger sister earlier, I went to Jingzhao Mansion to sue Huo Qing, but was kicked out by the yamen servants. The Huo family is so powerful that I, a grassroots, can't do anything. so.."

"That's why you think of me." Ji Zhuyu took his words and said, "Actually, you don't have to be discouraged. Mr. Yin Qin of Jingzhao Mansion is the former subordinate of General Huo, and he must be partial to Huo Qing. People like you There must be many sufferers, otherwise why would no one dare to sue him in Jinzhou City? It’s not because officials and officials protect each other, so it’s useless to sue him.”

Gu Xi immediately became anxious, "Since you can't sue him, what else can you do? Although you are the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Officials doesn't seem to care about Xing Prison."

Gu Xi shot straight at Ji Zhuyu with disbelieving eyes.

However, Ji Zhuyu's psychological quality is very good. No matter how the other party uses strong eyes to pressure her, she will not move. After drinking a cup of tea calmly, she continued: "I never planned to use it from the beginning. Regarding the relationship of the Ji Mansion, if you come to me with the idea that I am the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and that I should be able to use my father's power to help you avenge your grievances, you can give up."

"then you.."

Ji Zhuyu stretched out his hand to interrupt him, "If you want to sue Huo Qing, you can't solve it by just finding a high-ranking official to avenge you. You need to find a big person who is very willing to avenge you The city is full of wind and rain, and everyone knows it, so that the government can pay attention to this matter, file a case for you, and avenge you, so that your sister can be saved."

Gu Xi couldn't wait to ask: "Then who should I find? What should I do specifically?"

"I haven't figured out how to do it, but we can discuss it in the long run. As long as you and I cooperate, we will surely bring Huo Qing down and save your sister. How about it? Will you?"

The method Ji Zhuyu said is indeed feasible, and right now he has no one else to believe in, as long as he can sue Huo Qing and save his sister, even if he is asked to kill immediately, he will do it without hesitation.

"I am willing, but you should need me to do something, you don't look like a kind person who wants to help others."

"Haha!" Ji Zhuyu laughed undisguisedly, with a confident look shining on her fair skin, "You are really smart, I really don't do things that are not beneficial. But I don't want much, as long as you are absolutely loyal .”

"What do you mean?"

"Just surrender to me. No matter what I tell you to do in the future, you will do it without hesitation and will never betray me. How about it? Can you do it?"

"can!"

"Very well, the contract is established. I will offer you a toast with tea instead of wine."

Very good, take over another follower, the next step is to cast a net to catch big fish.

In the Yuci Courtyard of Ji Mansion, Mrs. Bai was sitting on a chair, looking at an invitation card with a serious expression.

Ji Qiaoshan lifted the bead curtain, and saw Bai's frowning expression as soon as she entered the room, and asked in confusion: "Mother, what's wrong? Who made you angry? Tell my daughter, I will teach her for you."

When Bai saw his precious daughter coming, the sadness on his face eased a little.She called Ji Qiaoshan, pulled her to sit down on the chair, and asked lovingly: "Where did you go to play today? Why are you only returning home now?"

Speaking of this, Ji Qiaoshan's face suddenly brightened, and she said happily: "Mother, I went to play with Brother Jing. Last time because of Ji Zhuyu, Brother Jing was lukewarm to me for a long time. Today I heard He went riding a horse outside the city, so I went to play with him. But he is still lukewarm to me, mother, do you think brother Jing doesn't like me!"

Bai patted the back of Ji Qiaoshan's hand comfortingly, "How is it possible? Shan'er is thinking too much. You are young and beautiful, and have a good family background. How could Prince Zhuo not like you? Don't think too much, you must firmly Grasp Zhuo Shizi, King Wen has only one son, Zhuo Shizi, and he will definitely inherit the throne in the future. When you marry him, you will be the princess. Even if Ji Mengwan marries Prince Ding in the future, so what, because of her status, she can only be a side concubine. At that time, she is destined to be shorter than you, and she will never be able to hold her head up in front of you for the rest of her life."

This Ji Mengwan thinks that she can act unscrupulously in the Ji Mansion by winning the title of "Second Beauty in Jinzhou City". She doesn't take her as a legitimate daughter seriously, and every time she sees her, she will show her face and rob her everywhere. s things.

Thinking that Ji Mengwan, who is proud and arrogant, will have to salute when she sees her in the future, Ji Qiaoshan's mood is extremely happy.

Ji Qiaoshan was about to talk about today's happy event with Bai Shi in detail, but she saw the invitation card on the table out of the corner of her eye, she picked it up and asked: "Mother, what is this?"
