Master Emperor, your wife is too poisonous

Chapter 199 Death is not a pity
"Ji Linyuan Ji Shizi?" Fang Jue was slightly stunned, and then nodded again and again, "Yes, Ji Shizi has been living in our city lord's mansion since he arrived in Xitong City."

"Then where is he now?"

Ye Lingxi questioned, but Fang Jue's gaze was a little dodged, and sweat broke out on his forehead, "Don't dare to lie to your lord, Prince Ji is still in Xitong City."

"When the epidemic was spreading before, Ji Shizi and my father had been rushing to the front line of disaster relief. It was four days ago that he suddenly started to have a high fever and a series of complications from the epidemic. It was concluded that he was indeed infected with the epidemic."

"This time I only brought out the people who were not infected with the epidemic to seek refuge, and all the other infected people were left in Xitong City, Prince Ji..."

Fang Jue lowered his head and did not dare to look at Ye Lingxi. When he said this, his tone was obviously weak, "Ji Shizi is no exception."

"My lord, I know that Ji Shizi is a nobleman from Qiongdu, with a distinguished status. It stands to reason that we can't ignore him, but..."

Fang Jue wanted to argue for himself, but Ye Lingxi interrupted him directly.

"Since it is a decision made to prevent the spread of the epidemic, then you are right to follow it. Don't say that he is the prince, he is the royal blood. If he is really infected with the epidemic, he must abide by the rules."

"You didn't do anything wrong, so you don't need to feel guilty."

Fang Jue originally thought that Ye Lingxi was coming to him to question his teacher, accusing him of neglecting a nobleman, but unexpectedly Ye Lingxi said such a very reasonable word, which really surprised him.

But it was precisely because of this that he became more and more confused.

"I don't know, my lord, you suddenly asked who Ji Shizi is..."

"This maid is called Yuzhu," Ye Lingxi asked, pointing to the Yuzhu tied up in a sack, "Before she left Xitong City, she served Ji Linyuan beside her, but is it true?"

Fang Jue glanced at Yuzhu and nodded, "That's right, after Prince Ji contracted the disease, she has been serving him all the time."

"When we withdrew from Xitong City yesterday, we originally wanted to keep her, but Ji Shizi said that we can't let people who are not infected with the epidemic suffer with them in Xitong City and waste their lives in vain, so I put her Yuzhu was brought out."

Fang Jue thought that Ye Lingxi should be worried about Ji Linyuan's situation, and hurriedly added: "But don't worry, my lord, my mother is still staying in Xitong City, she..."

When Fang Jue talked about his mother, he lost control of his emotions and his throat was slightly choked. "She didn't contract the disease, but she was determined to live and die with my father. She stayed there and took care of Ji Shizi's daily life and food. .”

After hearing this, Ye Lingxi knew that there were still people around Ji Linyuan, who were not left to die, the expression on her face eased a little, and she said sincerely, "The lady of the city lord is a benevolent and righteous person."

After saying this, her eyes turned back to Yuzhu who was beside her, "It was indeed abrupt for me to attack you rashly just now."

"Since the young city lord also thinks that I shouldn't do anything to you, let me ask you a few questions first."

"Let me ask you, after Ji Linyuan fell ill, the city lord sent you to take care of Ji Linyuan, so have you ever entered his room?"

That Yuzhu didn't expect Ye Lingxi to ask such a question, she rolled her eyes and opened her mouth to say something, there was a metallic sound in her ear, followed by a chill on her neck.

When she came back to her senses, she suddenly found that Ye Lingxi was holding a dagger in her hand, and the sharp blade of the dagger was now tightly attached to the side of her neck, and it could cut her neck directly with a little force!
"I don't want to waste time with you, don't lie to me. I'm going to Xitong City later, and I have plenty of ways to verify whether what you said is true or not. If I find out that you have told half a lie, I will I don’t mind cutting off your tongue and sending you on your way.”

Her voice was not high, and even her tone was not that gnashing of teeth and vicious, but the more she said such words with a flat tone and expression, the more creepy she felt.

Not to mention the jade bead, even the two men who escorted the jade bead and the young city lord Fang Jue were shocked by Ye Lingxi's actions, silently thinking that this woman looked pretty, but unexpectedly it was a Can't afford to kill God.

Helian Mingye's eyes swept over Ye Lingxi, and finally landed on the dagger in her hand.

The blade is as thin as a cicada's wing, and gems are faintly visible on the handle.

He slightly narrowed his eyes, his eyes were deeply focused.

He had seen that dagger before. In Lianyue Mountain, he recognized her identity by relying on this dagger.

She didn't notice it before, so it turns out that this dagger...was she always wearing it close to her body?

At that moment, it seemed that suppressed anger emanated from Helian Mingye's body, but his emotions quickly subsided, and everyone's attention was focused on Ye Lingxi, so that no one noticed. To his subtle changes.

That Yuzhu was so frightened by Ye Lingxi that she even forgot to cry, looked at Ye Lingxi with a pale face full of horror, and said in a trembling voice: "I...I say! I'm telling the truth!"

"According to the orders of the Lord City Lord, I was supposed to go into the room of Prince Ji and serve him personally."

"But... But Ji Shizi has a weird temper, he won't let me get close at all, even if he is sick and has difficulty getting up, he won't let me step into his room."

Fang Jue's face changed greatly when he heard the words, "This...why didn't you say this earlier!"

"After suffering from the epidemic, the whole body will be sore! If you are not by Shizi Ji's side to serve him personally, how did he survive the illness these few days?"

"I leave the change of clothes and tea at the door every day, and he will open the door to get them."

Yuzhu felt guilty, and subconsciously wanted to lower her head to avoid Fang Jue's questioning, but Ye Lingxi's dagger was on her neck, and when she lowered her head a little, her chin touched the cold blade, which made her tremble and dare not Messed up.

"Also, medicine, hot water, food, those...these are all, I will leave them at the door and he will pick them up by himself."

"You..." Fang Jue was so angry that he couldn't speak well. After all, he was still young. Finally, he stomped his feet severely and gritted his teeth, "Aren't you fooling around!"

"Since you don't really serve Ji Shizi, why didn't you explain to my mother as soon as possible!"

"If I stay in Ji Shizi's yard, at least I can do less work, and I don't have to contact patients directly! But if I tell the truth to my wife, that Ji Shizi won't let me get close, my wife will definitely send me to take care of the mansion. Other patients who were isolated because of the epidemic!"

Yuzhu also felt wronged and cried, "I don't want to die! I don't want to stay with those people!"

"Slap!" Ye Lingxi withdrew the dagger, and slapped Yuzhu's face hard, frothing the corners of her lips.

"You don't want to die, does Ji Linyuan want to die?!"

"He is a dignified and diligent son of the state, and he is on the front line of disaster relief every day for the people of Xitong City! You are good, but you are only asked to take care of the sick, and you still think it is three or four!"

"Ji Linyuan didn't let you into his room, didn't he feel pity and sympathy for you and couldn't bear your risk? Even though he was suffering from illness when he was sick, he still cared about the safety of you, a little maid."

"But what about you? What did you do to him? When you got sick from the epidemic, you blamed it all on Ji Linyuan. How dare you say you wanted to kill him..."

Ye Lingxi's eyes suddenly flashed a cold light, the dagger in his hand was about to stab out, but in the end he held back, and only raised his hand to slap Yuzhu hard.

"You are a wolf-hearted slave who doesn't know what is good or bad, death is not a pity!"
