Chapter 320 After Revenge, You Fall in Love with Him Again? 5
Ji Yanli lay down on the bed and slept soundly, ignoring the noise outside.
"Master, should we go?"
Ah Qing was a little nervous.
The Duke had never come to the yard to see the Second Young Master. Even if he met him in the garden, he would turn a nose up and ignore him. Now he asked the Second Young Master to come over, and it was obvious that something bad was going on.
This is to vent those people’s anger!
"Why go? If he has something to ask me, he will come over naturally. If he wants to see me, I have to walk over there myself? He's spoiled!"
These words were said arrogantly, and Ah Qing felt a little uneasy, but also felt happy in his heart.
The servant outside waited for a long time but no one came out. He was about to speak again, but Ah Qing came out and made a hushing gesture.
"Shut up! The Second Young Master is asleep."
"But, the Duke is still waiting."
"Uh, the Second Young Master will hit people if he doesn't sleep well. Why don't you go in and talk to the Second Young Master in person."
When the servant heard this, he thought of the young master who was beaten and still paralyzed in bed, and shook his head quickly.
"No, no, no, Brother Qing, please help me—"
"I'm not going, you have to go yourself."
Ah Qing put his hands in his pockets and refused bluntly.
The servant went back to report with a bitter face, looking back every few steps.
The Duke of Zhenguo was extremely angry after waiting for a long time but no one came.
"This bastard! I'm going to break his legs!"
He said so, but he didn't even move his butt on the wooden chair.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo stood aside with a sullen face and remained silent. The imperial physician from the palace was taking her pulse. After a while, the physician shook his head.
"Madam's pulse is normal, no signs of poisoning."
This is the same as what the court doctor said.
The Duke of Zhenguo gave a look, and the servant came forward and stuffed a bag of silver into the imperial physician's hand. The silver was quite heavy, and the imperial physician stood up and took his leave with satisfaction.
Ji Xin'er breathed a sigh of relief. She took the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's arm and said, "Mom, since the imperial physician said so, then my second brother must be joking with us. It's great that you are not poisoned."
"Even if the poison is not real, he is so treasonous, disrespectful to his parents, and cruel to his brother. He will definitely not be tolerated in the mansion."
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo's expression also eased a little, but then turned cold again.
"Duke, please tell me what should we do about this Second Young Master?"
"Since he's such a bastard, kick him out. He will have nothing to do with the Duke's Mansion in the future."
The Duke of Zhenguo answered very straightforwardly.
Ji Xin'er refused to agree, but no matter how she acted like a spoiled brat, Princess Zhenguo had made up her mind and was determined to kick her out this time.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo also looked puzzled and kept winking at her.
Ji Xiner was extremely anxious. She couldn't help but blame Ji Yanli. Why did he go so far? They were family after all, but he really ignored the affection between siblings and was so cruel to his eldest brother.
But she couldn't let Ji Yanli be really kicked out, otherwise everything would be just like in her previous life, without any change.
She stood up and knelt down, her face solemn: "Father, Mother, your daughter has something important to say."
Seeing her so serious, the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife looked at each other and waved their hands to let the servants in the room leave.
Before Ji Xiner could say anything, tears started streaming down her face. She was venting all the grievances she had suffered in her previous life without restraint, which scared the couple at the table above her.
The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo stood up and wanted to help her, but when Ji Xiner opened her mouth, it was like a bolt from the blue, and she froze in place.
"Xin'er...what did you say?"
Rebirth?
……
Ji Yanli woke up from a nap, yawned and stretched. After resting for so many days, it was time to go out for a walk.
He put on the new clothes made by the embroiderer, held a folding fan in his hand, and had a cynical look on his face. At first glance, he looked like a dandy nobleman.
Ah Qing watched with admiration.
"Master, you look like this. If the eldest master stood next to you, it would be like he was holding your shoes."
Ji Yanli put away the fan and nodded in agreement.
One is a master and the other is a servant, both have very cocky expressions.
They swaggered out of the main gate. Among the people who had the final say in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, one was paralyzed in bed and unable to get up, and the other three were crying bitterly. No one had the time to care about them at this time.
The servants respectfully prepared the carriage for him.
When we arrived at the most prosperous street in the imperial city, the lights were on and the place was bustling with people coming and going.
Ji Yanli took Ah Qing and started strolling around the streets. Everything that caught their eyes was packed up and sent to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. As for the money, of course it was put on the account of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion and people had to go to the mansion to settle it.
When beating Ji Mingzong, Ji Yanli saw that the jade pendant on his body was nice, so he borrowed it and now wears it on his body.
Those merchants had sharp eyes. The jade pendant of the eldest son of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion could be hung so blatantly on his body, so it definitely couldn't be stolen. Even though Ji Yanli was a stranger, they still treated him as a distinguished guest.
Ji Yanli had forgotten how many things he had bought. Anyway, every merchant was reluctant to see him off and repeatedly told him to come back when he had time.
He was strolling leisurely on the street with Ah Qing when suddenly a strong force hit him. Ji Yanli lowered his eyes to look and saw a terrified woman pulling him and shouting for help.
"Save me, save me! He wants to kill me, he wants to kill me!"
The woman's exposed arms were covered with old and new whip marks, making her look particularly pitiful.
Someone stopped and looked over here.
Soon, a dark and sturdy man came after them with some men. When he saw the woman, his brows furrowed, and he walked up to her, grabbed her hair and started cursing, trying to drag her away.
The woman screamed and struggled, grabbing at Ji Yanli's body. Ji Yanli sighed and helped her up.
"If you have anything to say, just talk it out. Why are you yelling and fighting like this? Are you a couple?"
The woman shook her head and said no, and the man said yes.
Ji Yanli smiled and showed the hem of his clothes that was scratched by the woman: "Since we are a couple, it's easy to talk about it. She scratched my clothes, so it's just right that you come to compensate me."
The man took a look at the material of his clothes and his face darkened.
The woman also panicked and let go of her hands that were grabbing his clothes. She glanced at the man with a subtle look.
"You won't pay? If you don't, I'll report you to the police."
The man gritted his teeth and punched the woman in the face. "This bitch has stained your clothes. I can't afford to pay for it. I might as well kill her to make amends!"
The woman screamed miserably and knelt down to beg for mercy.
Some of the people watching the excitement couldn't stand it anymore.
"Isn't it just a piece of clothing? You don't look like you need money, so why bother with this poor person?"
Some people agreed, some people started to make a fuss, and some people shouted that she should be beaten to death.
Ji Yanli sighed slowly and was about to back down and say forget it when a clear male voice interrupted him.
"According to my Great Yu Law, anyone who damages another's property must compensate according to the price, or else go to jail. You refused to pay and even beat your own woman to death, so you'll be jailed for life."
The person's hair was combed meticulously and tied up with a green hairpin. He wore low-key black clothes, but his movements were radiant in the dim light, and it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
"And you," the man pointed at the weeping woman, "I saw you steal his purse just now. Why don't you send us to the authorities together? It'll be a good companion for you."
The woman's crying became quieter, and she was obviously feeling guilty.
But the one who felt more guilty than her was Ji Yanli.
