The best farmhouse

Chapter 186 Guarding the City Gate
Mrs. Ji and Master Ji thought that there would be nothing wrong after leaving Yucheng, so they knew that Prime Minister Right was still aggressive.

Zhao Canniang was angry, but there was nothing she could do. She was not stupid enough to think that she could compete with the right minister. The Ke family alone was enough to make her burn out. As for the right minister, she didn't even think about it. .

You can hide as far as you can with Ji Zhifu.

"Godmother, I will find a way to rescue Zizhu, and you don't want to live here. We will leave with our godfather. We will go to Wangcheng to meet my brother first, and then return to our Baiyun County. At that time, we will buy a house. A few waiters are waiting by your side, and if I have children in the future, you can still hug your grandchildren, wouldn’t it be great, and I can take care of you all the time.”

Between Zhao Canniang and Mrs. Ji, they spoke very straightforwardly.

Mrs. Ji felt very relieved, it was really kind of Zhao Canniang to treat them like this.

It's just that she didn't want to bother Zhao Canniang: "Your good-hearted godmother, Canniang, understands, but your godfather and I are both old and can't walk anymore."

Zhao Canniang didn't know about Mrs. Ji but she just didn't want to trouble her. She looked at Mrs. Ji with a smile. I know you don't want to trouble me, but I really want to honor you two elders, I swore in front of Sister Ji's spirit card that I will definitely support you two elders until the end of my life, and I will do it if I say it."

Mrs. Ji still shook her head: "We just need to know that you are good, Canniang, we all understand that you are for our own good, but we really don't want to trouble you."

Mrs. Ji couldn't help sighing after she finished speaking, and then continued: "It's enough for us two old people to cuddle together like this until we grow old. Baiyun County is too far away, so we won't go. If you have time in the future You can come and see us."

Zhao Canniang held Mrs. Ji's hand tightly, and then said: "I understand what Godmother is thinking, anyway, this matter is settled like this, this time I came here specially to pick you up, if you don't follow me, I won't If you go back, you won't be married by then."

Zhao Channiang sometimes has a childish temper.

Mrs. Ji was a little helpless: "Godmother can't decide this matter, if your godfather is willing to follow, let's go!"

At the end, Mrs. Ji added another sentence: "Please try to persuade your godfather, I will ask you to help Zizhu's affairs no matter what, I watched that girl grow up, and I can't bear to look like this now. "

Zhao Canniang agreed very seriously: "Don't worry, godmother, I will leave this matter to me, and I will handle it well."

Ji Zhifu didn't wake up until noon.

Yang Yike had already been called into the yard, and it was already noon, and Zhao Canniang cooked some side dishes with her own son.

When Ji Zhifu heard that Zhao Canniang was coming, he felt refreshed and got out of bed. Ji Zhifu came out wearing a piece of clothing.

On the table in the main room, there are a few small dishes. Although the dishes are simple, the fragrance lingering in the room is extraordinarily attractive.

Zhao Canniang and Mrs. Ji came from the kitchen with two plates of dishes, just in time to see Zhifu Ji's satisfied expression.

Involuntarily, Zhao Canniang asked with a smile: "Godfather, do you feel better physically?"

Ji Zhifu smiled and nodded: "When did you come? The last time your brother came, he was still saying that you might come to Yucheng, but he didn't expect to come so soon. You don't have to worry about my body, you are just angry. Now Seeing you coming, I feel a little more comfortable in my heart, and I will be fine after resting."

People tend to feel lonely when they are old, especially after so many things happened, Zhifu Ji felt even more lonely in his heart.

And Zhao Canniang really regarded it as his daughter, why did he feel unhappy when his daughter came.

After Zhao Canniang arranged the dishes, she said, "Godfather, let's sit down and talk."

Yang Yike said that he would not eat at the table, so Zhao Canniang had to pick out some of each dish for Yang Yike and serve him in a bowl.

Yang Yike seldom speaks now. Although he seldom speaks, every time it comes to a critical moment, Yang Yike's one or two sentences are really reasonable. At that time, he knew that Yang Yike has always been obedient with his heart, but he just doesn't like it. Just speak out what's on your mind.

Ji Zhifu washed his hands and came in and sat down directly. The three of them seldom ate around a table like this.

Mrs. Ji thought of the sad thing again, and she couldn't help wiping away her tears.

"It would be great if Yanran was still here, that girl really has a hard life."

Hearing this, Zhao Canniang also felt uncomfortable. She never thought that Ke Tianlin would be so good at disguising. For such a long time, even she did not discover Ke Tianlin's disguising.

have to say.Ke Tianlin really has a knack for acting.

Prefect Ji frowned and looked at Madam Ji, and then said: "Don't talk about these sad things while eating, if you keep talking about Yanran like this, she won't be at peace down here."

Mrs. Ji nodded, indicating that she already understood.

Zhao Canniang hurriedly said at this time: "The past of godfather and godmother is over, don't think about it, the key is in the future, as long as everyone lives well, I have already told godfather, this time you have to follow I'm going, come back to Baiyun County with me."

Ji Zhifu didn't speak after hearing this, but just stretched out his chopsticks to eat the food in the bowl.

Zhao Canniang saw that Zhifu Ji was not talking but was thinking deeply, so she knew that Zhifu Ji should be thinking about something.

Zhao Canniang was also eating with her head down, with the vegetables in between, and suddenly Zhao Canniang even felt that the air became dull.

After eating, Ji Zhifu seemed to have figured it out, looked at Zhao Canniang and said, "We will leave with you, not for anything else but for your filial piety."

In fact, Ji Zhifu finally made up his mind because of several recent incidents, he must leave temporarily to avoid the edge.

Zhao Canniang didn't care so much, as long as Ji Zhifu followed and left.

With a slight smile, Zhao Canniang said: "This is really great, godfather, how about we leave together this time and go to Wangcheng first?"

When Ji Zhifu heard Zhao Canniang say this, he couldn't help but nodded; "I'll listen to you on this matter, how to do what you say, and I will eat and drink yours now with your godmother."

Zhao Canniang felt happy in her heart. In Zhao Canniang's heart, although money is important, family affection cannot be bought with money. The prefect Ji and his wife never looked down on her since the first time they met, or deliberately alienated her because of her status. Helping their brothers and sisters wholeheartedly, now is the time to reciprocate.
"Okay, you just need to eat and drink, and don't worry about other things."

Ji Zhifu and his wife are also relatively fast, and they are also people of the action group. They will do what they say, without any pause in the middle.

Mrs. Ji found a carriage in the village. The things Mrs. Ji and the prefect brought were relatively simple.

One person with one burden is the end of the matter, Zhao Canniang smiled when she saw the two of them like this: "Godfather and Godmother, have you finished packing your things?"

Ji Zhifu also followed suit with a smile: "It's finished packing, everything is here, we don't have many things, and all valuable things have been taken away. I didn't expect to raise a white-eyed wolf in the end."

Ji Zhifu thought of that concubine again. When he left Yucheng, Ji Zhifu sent away all the maids and women in the mansion. Those people followed him anyway, so he didn't make things difficult for them, and directly handed over the contract of sale Back to those people, in the end there was only homeless Zizhu and a concubine who was reluctant to leave.

As for the other children, Ji Zhifu also sent them to relatives' homes.

Although he still has two concubine daughters in the mansion, they don't have much affection at all, and Ji Zhifu is not a very caring person.

When the concubine followed him and left, he thought it was the concubine who was reluctant to part with him, and was moved for a while, but he didn't expect that the concubine was actually doing it for money.

All the valuables brought out at the beginning were stolen by the concubine. If Mrs. Ji hadn't kept an extra eye on her, even the house she lived in would be someone else's now.

When Zhao Canniang saw that Zhifu remembered the concubine who stole the money again, she hurriedly comforted her, "Godfather, don't think about it too much. This matter is over, and money is something outside of us. Let's just leave! What's wrong with this yard?" manage?"

Ji Zhifu glanced at it reluctantly, and sighed: "Keep it, anyway, this yard is worthless."

The group went straight out of the village. Zhao Canniang put Yang Yike down when she was on the official road, gave Yang Yike some money, and asked Yang Yike to go back by herself.

But Zhao Canniang and the others did drive their horses to the nearest town outside Yucheng.

It's not very far from the town, and we arrived in the town in the evening.

After paying the groom and telling him to go back by himself, Zhao Canniang and the others found an inn to stay.

You can arrive at Wangcheng at noon tomorrow, so as long as you arrive at Wangcheng, you don't have to worry about it.

Ji Zhifu and Mrs. Ji were inside the room.

Mrs. Ji sat on the chair and sighed: "Chan Niang is a good girl."

Ji Zhifu nodded: "Yes, she is a good girl, this is the fate of both of us, okay! To meet such a sensible daughter in this life, I also feel content."

Mrs. Ji also nodded: "Yes! This is a blessing for both of us."

"Chan Niang is a good person, but I feel uncomfortable when I think of the Right Prime Minister. I didn't expect him to be such a person."

Ji Zhifu's expression was filled with emotion, and Mrs. Ji also sighed: "The past is just like Canniang said, so don't mention it."

At noon on the second day, a group of people arrived at the gate of Wangcheng.

The officers and soldiers at the gate of the city guarded the gate majestically.

It is still only allowed out but not in.

Zhao Canniang had already changed back into women's clothing today, and Zhao Canniang walked directly to the gate of the city and said politely to the officers and soldiers, "Brother, please inform me. It doesn't matter if it's any of the Five Tiger Generals, just ask Zhao Canniang to see you."

The officers and soldiers saw Zhao Canniang's harmless appearance, and they were also very polite. Firstly, they didn't want to delay important matters, secondly, they thought that Zhao Canniang didn't look like a bad person, and thirdly, Zhao Canniang was also good-looking. With a slight smile, although not to say that it fascinates all living beings, at least it is quite pleasant!
As soon as the officers and soldiers left, Zhao Canniang had time to stop and look around. There were very few people leaving the city, but not all of them entered the city. Only some people with tokens could enter the city.

Zhao Canniang observed for a while, and always felt that it seemed to be stricter than what Zhao Qingfeng said in the letter.

Recently, the two sides have been at a stalemate.

The second prince is already in the palace, and the emperor is under house arrest in the palace.

For outsiders, the second prince's behavior is usurping the throne, and it is a treasonous thing.

But for those soldiers who support the second prince, the second prince is the destiny, and the second prince will definitely become a very good emperor in the future, so the faction's struggle is absolutely terrible.

The prince in the hands of the right minister is just a puppet, and the right minister has been fighting hard all the time. Zhao Canniang believes that as long as there is no financial support, the right minister will not last long.

After a while, General Five Tigers came out in a hurry.

The five tigers can be regarded as the most handsome among them, giving people the impression that they have delicate features, and Zhao Canniang's mood immediately improved when she saw the five tigers: "Brother five tigers."

The five tigers had already walked in front of Zhao Canniang, glanced at the carriage in the distance and said, "The carriage is yours, right?"

Zhao Canniang nodded: "My godfather and godmother are also here, shall we go to the city? I want to find my brother."

Five Tigers smiled slightly: "Of course that's okay. Our brothers were still talking about you a few days ago, but we didn't expect you to come today. Let's go to the city to talk."

After the five tigers gave a few instructions to the officers and soldiers next to them, they took Zhao Canniang directly to the city.

The officers and soldiers who had received the order walked towards the carriage at this time.

Inside the carriage, Ji Zhifu saw Zhao Canniang entering the city, got out of the carriage, and followed directly.

As soon as she entered the city, Zhao Canniang felt that the scene in Wangcheng was different from that in Yucheng.

Just looking at it, the right minister has already lost to the second prince, because the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and the right minister lost the hearts of the people early.

"Brother Wuhu, do you know where my brother is?" Zhao Canniang asked.

Wuhu smiled and said: "Naturally, I know that your brother has been busy with business recently, and his business is very good. Recently, the most lacking thing in the city is vegetables, so he took a token from the instructor. In the vegetable business, the business is excellent.'

The Zhao Canniang brothers and sisters helped them a lot at the beginning, and now they want to give back a little to the Zhao Qingfeng brothers and sisters within their capabilities, so as long as they can help, they are doing their best to help.

When Zhao Canniang heard Wuhu's words, she felt even more grateful: "Thank you, big brothers. I won't say any more polite words, but the same sentence. As long as I can help in the future, I will definitely do my best to help. .”
Ji Zhifu and Mrs. Ji have been sent in by the officers and soldiers.

The five tigers glanced at it, and then stepped forward to salute: "Prefect Ji also thanked you for your care before, we all know about your affairs, the second prince was very angry when he heard about this matter, and when the right minister's matter is settled, when the time comes Ji Zhifu will be reinstated."

Zhifu Ji waved his hands again and again: "It's impossible, I have figured it out now, I'm getting old, and I can't do things anymore, thank you General Five Tigers for your kindness, I just want to be with my family now, And I also want to walk around, the only thing I want to see is that the right minister is punished, this matter is up to you."

The five tigers nodded seriously: "Prefect Ji can rest assured that the second prince is already doing his best to deal with this matter, and it won't be long before there will be a satisfactory answer. The right minister's beheading this time is inevitable."

The five tigers didn't say any unnecessary words, but just said this sentence lightly.

Although there is only this sentence, it is enough for Zhao Canniang and Ji Zhifu to listen.

"Brother Wuhu, thank you for today's matter. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to enter the city. I still have some things to discuss with my brother. I will arrange you later. How about this?"

The five tigers didn't bother, he also wanted to guard the city gate, so he said: "Can Niang, you just go to work when you have something to do, and we will get together when you have time to finish your work. We haven't relaxed much recently."

From the beginning of martial law, the five tigers took turns guarding the city gates. The reason why they went to battle in person was to deter the right minister.

So the few people seldom take a break. They spend the whole day guarding here on weekdays. If they have a rest day, they will do other things.

All in all it's not easy.

Zhao Canniang bid farewell to the five tigers, and walked along the street with Ji Zhifu and his wife. The pedestrians on the street were completely different from those in Yucheng. It seemed that everyone was having a good time.
It seems that the strictness of the city gate did not affect them.

The shops on both sides of the street are open, and the business seems to be doing well.

Ji Zhifu couldn't help sighing: "This is the city that looks like a city, and the Wangcheng looks like a living city. The current Yucheng is already a dead city."

After Zhifu Ji finished speaking, his face was a little sad. He had been the prefect of Yucheng for many years, and now he treats the people of Yucheng as his parents.

The feelings in his heart are difficult for outsiders to understand, but now Yucheng has become like that, Ji Zhifu naturally feels uncomfortable.

When Zhao Canniang heard this, she quickly comforted her: "Godfather, don't think about it too much. When this matter subsides, Yucheng will return to normal. I believe that the second prince will be able to manage Yucheng well."

Zhao Canniang's confident appearance gave Ji Zhifu a little hope.

"I hope so!"

Zhao Canniang didn't know where Zhao Qingfeng was, and she only got information about the shop from Five Tigers just now.

Now the three of them are walking slowly on the street.

Mrs. Ji also came to Wangcheng for the first time, and she only felt new about the surrounding environment.

When I was in the boudoir mansion before, I never thought that there would be such a beautiful scenery outside. Now that I think about it, I really wasted a lot of time before.

Zhifu Ji whispered to Zhao Canniang as he walked, "That's why I don't stand on any side, he is too scary."
