"That's it..."

Ji You fell into a brief thought again.

He always felt that Palace Master Jiang had something to hide, but he couldn't be completely sure.

Mainly, he didn't know the person of Palace Master Jiang at all, so he had absolutely no clue as to what was hidden behind Palace Master Jiang.

He thought about it again, and suddenly reacted at a certain moment, all the actions of Palace Master Jiang were combined, as if...

It was as if he desperately wanted to grow his strength.

Not long ago, Ji You also desperately wanted to make himself stronger because of Chen Yan's affairs, so he was very sensitive to this aspect.

That's why he just felt that Palace Master Jiang had some unspeakable secrets, probably just to strengthen his "strength".

The "strength" of Palace Master Jiang could be Palace Master Jiang himself, Jiang Yue and Jiang Yuexin, or even anyone he could use in the entire City Lord's Mansion.

It is precisely because Palace Master Jiang took a fancy to his talent and strength that he privately asked himself to be engaged to Jiang Yuexin, so that he would become a part of the City Lord's Mansion and one of Palace Master Jiang's "strengths".

Palace Master Jiang will be so strict with Jiang Yue in martial arts, just to make Jiang Yue stronger as soon as possible, so that Palace Master Jiang's "strength" will also increase.

Even Jiang Yuexin was also so harshly demanded, but Jiang Yuexin was not obedient at all, and then Palace Master Jiang gave up.

At this time, Ji You suddenly recalled that seven days ago, when Jiang Yue was defeated by Chen Yan's three moves, Palace Master Jiang's face was full of disappointment, and the whole incident further confirmed his conjecture.

Of course, all this is still just Ji You's conjecture.

Before the truth is confirmed, he will not easily make a conclusion.

Then, continue to think according to this conjecture.

Since when did Palace Master Jiang become so eager to improve his strength?

According to what Jiang Yuexin said, it suddenly became like this after her mother became ill.

Thinking of this, a new conjecture appeared in Ji You's mind again.

The root cause of all of this is probably Jiang Yuexin's mother's illness.

"How did your mother get that disease?"

Ji You immediately asked.

"I'm not very clear about this. I asked my mother many times, and she kept silent every time."

Jiang Yuexin shook her head.

Ji You frowned slightly, which was a little troublesome.

He thought about how to ask, and after thinking about it, he asked: "Then where did she get sick, is it in the City Lord's Mansion?"

"I don't know this. I only know that after my mother and father came back from nowhere, she was inexplicably suffering from that kind of strange disease, and I didn't even know how to treat it."

Jiang Yuexin still shook her head.

As soon as she finished speaking, she continued: "Before speaking, I went to the Monster Beast Mountains to collect Ziyang grass, just to see if it could cure my mother's strange disease, but then that Ziyang grass did not cause my mother's strange disease either. to any effect."

Jiang Yuexin's words disturbed Ji You's mind again.

Where did Palace Master Jiang and the Palace Master's wife return from? No way to know.

Why did the lady of the palace suffer from a strange disease? No way to know.

"Otherwise, would you take me to see your mother?"

Hearing Ji You's words, Jiang Yuexin was slightly taken aback and asked subconsciously, "...why?"

"Isn't it possible?"

Ji You asked back.

If Jiang Yuexin is unwilling, it is useless for him to say what he thinks in his heart.

What's more, those are his own conjectures, Jiang Yuexin may not believe them when they say it, so he just doesn't say it.

"It's not impossible, but at least there must be a reason..."

Suddenly at this moment, Jiang Yuexin stared at Ji You's eyes with a look of alertness, "I always feel that you are hiding something from me, why do you like to bear it alone every time, tell me you will die? ?"

"I know, I know."

Ji You sighed slightly and couldn't help but want to laugh.

She didn't expect this girl to be so keen, and she actually noticed it.

"I'll tell you, let's talk as we go."

Ji You said.

"That's not right, then come with me."

Jiang Yuexin nodded happily and took Ji You to her mother's residence.

Walking on the road, Ji You told Jiang Yuexin his previous guesses.

After he finished speaking, he added, "Do you think it is reasonable to look at what I said from the perspective of a bystander?"

The reason why he said this was to prevent Jiang Yuexin from affecting his thinking due to his resentment towards the Palace Master Jiang.

Jiang Yuexin pondered for a while, then nodded with a complicated expression: "Although I don't want to admit it, what you said does make some sense."

"Relax a little bit. I said this not to ask you to change your opinion of Palace Master Jiang, not to mention that you took the initiative to ask me to tell these things."

Looking at Jiang Yuexin's complex appearance, Ji You said softly.

Immediately, he continued: "Anyway, if I go to see your mother first, I may be able to find out the truth of the matter."

"I understand."

Jiang Yuexin took a deep breath and relaxed her emotions.

Until her expression was relaxed and natural, she began to speed up her steps, "Okay, let's continue walking."

Ji You nodded slightly, and also accelerated to follow.

Not long after, the two came to a simple and humble cottage.

"right here?"

Looking at this hut, Ji You couldn't help showing a hint of surprise on his face. He didn't expect the palace master's wife to live in such a place.
