Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 921 The same goal?
"Third Master..." Zhang Dexian turned around and was about to look for Ning Xiuyuan, only to find that Third Master Ning, who had been beside him just now, had stood next to Ji Wuyan at some point.

Zhang Dexian is not a fool. The fact that Lin Yi can appear here openly means that this person at least has martial arts skills. Now, whether it is Li Yiwei or the group of imperial doctors, they are obviously no match for him. The only one left is the Third Master. He was about to speak again, but was abruptly interrupted by a scolding.

The incident happened very suddenly and was beyond everyone's expectations. The young doctor who had been timid all the time suddenly jumped three feet high and rushed towards Lin Yi, howling as he rushed, "Traitor! Don't be so arrogant! Do you really think--" The voice stopped abruptly.

A skinny hand clamped his neck and lifted him up. The young doctor's face turned red, but he couldn't utter a word. He just struggled with his hands and feet.

Ji Wuyan's brows, which had not yet been raised, fell hastily - this young man really overestimated his own abilities and underestimated the seemingly "fragile" Lin Yi.

Lin Yi seemed to like this episode very much. He tilted his head to admire the other party's struggle, and marveled with interest, "No wonder they say young people are naive. Look, the emperor's own son didn't stand up, his confidants were unmoved, and your predecessors, which one jumped out? Obviously the most timid, but jumped the fastest, and couldn't keep his cool..." After saying that, he sneered and shook his head...

The young doctor was still struggling, he could no longer breathe, his face had turned the color of liver. Ji Wuyan was ready to rescue him - just as Lin Yi said, this young man who was obviously the most timid but still had some sense of righteousness was worth saving.

The silver needle at the fingertips was ready to move, just waiting for the young doctor's waving hands to pause for a moment... Unexpectedly, the hand not only did not stop, but also hit Lin Yi's other hand.

The hand holding the vermilion jar.

Perhaps because he was so confident of victory that he became complacent and lost his guard, the small jar in Lin Yi's hand was accidentally slapped away from him.

Lin Yi was startled for a moment, but he reacted very quickly. He pushed the young doctor away and flew to reach the small jar that was knocked away... However, he was fast, and Ji Wuyan was even faster. She stood up almost at the moment the jar was knocked away, and with a roll of her wide sleeves, she had already got the small jar with a rough texture in her hand.

Over there, the young imperial physician who had been pushed away had been picked up by Ning Xiuyuan and placed in a corner. There was some blood at the corner of his mouth, and it seemed that he had suffered some internal injuries from the last palm strike. They were not serious, but he was more likely frightened.

Fortunately, there weren't many people here except for imperial physicians, so curing internal injuries was no problem - and they could also take this opportunity to stay away, so as not to become an innocent victim and lose their lives, regretting it later. Therefore, although a minor injury could be cured by one person, three or five imperial physicians came to treat it at once. Everyone surrounded the young imperial physician, asking about his health and showing great concern.

Ji Wuyan glanced at the grand occasion, then looked back at Lin Yi, weighed the small jar in his hand, and smiled, "Every time I see you, you always smile and make me unhappy. Today I finally see your angry expression... Tsk, it's so ugly."

"Ji, Wu, Yan!" Lin Yi gritted her teeth, and could hear the sound of teeth grinding against each other between words, "It's you again! You really like to meddle in other people's business!" "This lady doesn't really want to meddle in your Li family's little business." Ji Wuyan shrugged, lowered her head and stroked the jar in her hand, feeling the subtle movement in the jar, and then said, "It is said that it is difficult for an honest official to judge family affairs. Speaking of it, those are your family affairs, and I am not an official... It's just that the young doctor is in my eyes. I am used to being casual, and I always want to protect those who I like."

"Okay." Lin Yi nodded. Ji Wuyan was a weird girl. Nothing good would happen if she got involved with him. Lin Yi didn't want to get involved with her any more. He pouted and said, "I'll give you the doctor. Give me back what you have."

"Return it back?" Ji Wuyan raised her eyebrows and tossed the jar in her hand. Seeing the nervous look in the other person's eyes as she wished, she said, "Don't lie to me. The things in here look very familiar to me. They should be things from my Ji family. I didn't accuse you of stealing things from my Ji family to harm others. Why do you want me to return it to you?"

"Harming people..." On the bed, the emperor looked very pessimistic. He opened his mouth to breathe and murmured to Ji Wuyan, "You mean...Is this my current state caused by the things in there?"

Ji Wuyan shook her head and answered frankly, "I don't know."

The emperor was so angry at this answer that he almost fainted. Zhang Dexian helped the emperor calm down, but he was also helpless about Ji Wuyan's attitude of not caring about the matter. He patiently coaxed her, "What exactly did Miss Ji mean by what she said just now?"

Ji Wuyan looked down at the jar in her hand again, then shrugged, "I guessed it. Lin Yi broke into the palace alone, without anything, and he was holding this small jar from beginning to end, which shows that it is very important. For a wicked man like him, the important thing must be something that can harm people..."

After saying that, he threw it casually again. Lin Yi rushed over to grab it. Ji Wuyan flew back to behind Ning Xiuyuan, grinning. Ning Xiuyuan had already faced Lin Yi.

The space in the hall was limited and no one could move freely. Lin Yi also had to consider the jar and was constrained everywhere, so he had to retreat.

Ning Xiuyuan did not chase after her, but withdrew his hand and stood calmly beside Ji Wuyan to protect her. From the beginning to the end, his attitude was very clear: I can ignore you if you want to touch the emperor, but you cannot touch Ji Wuyan.

Lin Yi's teeth creaked as he pointed at the things in Ji Wuyan's hand. "Ji Wuyan, your sister committed suicide. Besides, every wrong has its perpetrator. Even if you want to avenge her, you should go to Li Yuqi instead of me, who works for others. In fact, we don't have any deep hatred. The life and death of the emperor has nothing to do with you. If you return the things to me, I will let you and Ning Xiuyuan go. How about that? You know my martial arts. If we really fight, the two of you combined are no match for me."

Seeing that Ji Wuyan was unmoved, he stepped forward and said, "Even if we take a step back, our goals are actually the same. Why don't we cooperate? In this way, it is not impossible for the Li family to change its name to Shangguan."

No deep hatred? Cooperation? For a moment, Ji Wuyan even thought that his ears might be broken, otherwise how could he hear such absurd and arrogant words that ignored everyone around him?
She thought it was funny, so she really laughed. She looked at Lin Yi sideways and asked him, "Is this how you impressed the Fifth Elder?"
