Rudonghai

Chapter 210
Ji Jiaqian was extremely angry and struggled: "I am the master, the daughter of Lord Hou, the eldest son's sister-in-law, how could he treat me like this? I want to see my father and my mother, please let me go!"

"Master Hou has already taken his medicine and rested. Mrs. Hou fell ill and has not woken up yet. Mrs. Gu is still resting in the backyard, so as not to go to see the two of you, and it will be bad if you get sick."

Ji Jiaqian was startled by what the mother-in-law said, she was surprised and said: "What does Ran Lang mean, he dares to treat mother like this, this is his own grandma!"

Guess Mrs. Hou got in the way of Ji Keran, so she couldn't tolerate her anymore?

An Guohou avoided seeing her, what does this mean?
Perhaps as the emperor said, An Guohou knew Ji Jiaqian's life experience a long time ago, so he doted on her in every possible way, and he was waiting for this day!
Ji Jiaqian's eyes dimmed, and she always regarded An Guohou's Mansion as her home.Now this home is just a moon in the water, if you stretch out your hand to stir it up a little, you can't see it anymore, it's all just her deceiving herself.

She lowered her head, stopped struggling, and was obediently locked up in the original courtyard by her mother-in-law. Even Hongluan and Liusu couldn't take a step out.

"Madam Gu, don't worry, there is a servant girl who will bring food over here. If there is any need, as long as it is not too much, I will bring it over."

After the mother-in-law finished speaking, she closed the courtyard door.

Liusu took a closer look, and saw that the four wives were guarding the door tightly, and there were guards guarding the courtyard, obviously not giving Ji Jiaqian a chance to go out, so she asked timidly: "The eldest son asked his wife to ground her feet, why is that? "

"Why? But for his great cause, don't let anyone hinder him!" Ji Jiaqian smiled sarcastically. In the past, Ji Keran was always pretending to be obedient to herself.

"Don't worry, Ran Lang will come to see me soon." She has something that Ji Keran wants, so naturally she will not let it go.

Before Ji Jiaqian had to wait too long, Ji Keran came over with Ying Cailin, saw her and said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is finally back, my nephew has been waiting for you for a long time, and I am a little anxious. I think my sister-in-law will not leave tomorrow , let Lin’er go to Huguo Temple to pick up my sister-in-law.”

Now that Ji Jiaqian obediently returned to the Hou Mansion, she saved herself a lot of trouble.

Ji Jiaqian glanced at Ying Cailin who was beside him, her brows were downcast, she obviously planned to stand with him and support Ji Keran's decision.

What a brainless little hoof, he thinks he is smart, the emperor already knows the secret plan of An Guohou's mansion, how can he succeed?
Ying Cailin not only gave Ji Keran a pillow, but also seemed to want to involve Bohou's family: "Ran Lang, I want to have a private chat with you."

"There are no outsiders here, so just say what my aunt wants to say." Ji Keran shook her head, motioned Ying Cailin to close the door, and stretched out her hand, "My nephew has a heartless request, and I also ask my aunt to hand over the things to you." come over."

Ji Jiaqian raised her eyebrows, no outsiders?

It's ridiculous, does Ji Keran think that she is still the girl who was foolishly infatuated with him?
"Ran Lang, enough is enough, paper can't cover the fire, the emperor..."

Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted coldly by Ji Keran: "Sister-in-law went to see the emperor? I underestimated you, too. After all, sister-in-law is the eldest prince's biological daughter. It is not difficult to meet the emperor. Why, did you tell the emperor all of your grandpa's plans so that you could save your own life? If grandpa knew, he would be sad. He has been your father and daughter with you for 30 years, but he didn't expect that you would disregard our affection and take us Are they all sold out?"

"Don't be bloody, I met you by chance at the Huguo Temple." Ji Jiaqian spread her hand, holding the wooden sign in her palm, because she had been holding it tightly, and it was still wet with sweat: "If Say it all out, do you think I can go back to the Hou Mansion, and stand here to dissuade you? Ran Lang, hurry up and persuade Lord Hou to stop, it's not too late..."

"No, it's too late. All the money in the Hou Mansion has been exchanged for swords and thunderbolts, and a group of desperadoes have been hired. We only promise victory but not defeat. It's too late to say anything now." If he didn't say it, Ji Keran rudely snatched the wooden token from Ji Jiaqian's hand, as if pinching the emperor's lifeline, and the chances of winning the An Guo Hou Mansion increased by two points.

"Sister-in-law, if you think about the kindness of the Hou's family's upbringing, then stay here and watch how I become famous and stand above ten thousand people." Ji Keran's eyes were full of madness, as if he could already see himself in a yellow robe, aloof and superior , treating everyone like ants.

What Ji Jiaqian wanted to say, Ji Keran couldn't listen anymore, and said coldly: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, when this day comes, my nephew will not forget you. Anyway, I have been in love with my sister-in-law for several years, and the love is still there , will definitely bring you to enjoy this endless wealth and glory together."

After that, he turned around and left, but Ying Cailin stopped hesitantly, took a few steps behind, and looked at Ji Jiaqian: "Master Hou's body is getting weaker and weaker, and he only wakes up for one hour a day. The doctor said that he has no cure for medicine and stones. It can take a while."

This is also the reason for Ji Keran's anxiety. Without An Guohou as the leader, the cohesion will be much less, and the chances of winning will be lower.

Ji Jiaqian looked at her calmly and asked in confusion, "Why did you tell me this?"

"I just don't want you to misunderstand. Ran Lang tried his best to keep Lord Hou alive, and he also hoped that he could live forever. Unfortunately, things backfired. As for Mrs. Hou, she is much happier when she is asleep than when she is awake."

After Ying Cailin finished speaking, she quickly followed Ji Keran who had gone far away, and quickly left the yard.

Liusu worried: "Is the words of the young mistress trustworthy?"

Ji Jiaqian nodded: "She doesn't need to lie to me about this kind of thing, it should be true."

"Madam, do you want to go out and see Lord Hou and Madam Hou?" Hong Luan asked suddenly.

Looking at her, Hongluan smiled: "I finally understand a little bit why mother sent you to my side."

For, it is now this time!
Ji Keran got the wooden sign, with a smile on his face, he handed the things into Ying Cailin's hands: "Go to the Huguo Temple and let those bald donkeys hand over the things, otherwise you can't blame me if you die."

Ying Cailin took the wooden sign, she looked inconspicuous, but she never thought that the eldest concubine would leave such a good thing, it was like adding wings to Ji Keran: "Husband, start tonight?"

"Yes, there is no need to delay, our time is running out." Ji Keran narrowed his eyes. The day Ji Jiaqian returned to the Hou Mansion, he knew something was wrong, but he didn't expect the emperor to condescend to see her She: "The emperor may be aware of it. We can only win this battle by catching him by surprise. By the way, don't forget to send a group of people to Xiao's mansion and invite Mrs. Xiao back to me."

Hearing this, Ying Cailin snorted coldly: "Why, Husband still miss Mrs. Xiao?"

Ji Keran reached out and pinched her cheeks, and smiled affectionately: "Why are you still so jealous at this time? Isn't Mrs. Xiao the weakness of Mrs. Xiao? I heard that Mrs. Xiao is pregnant with a child now. The family is weak, this child is an important bargaining chip, I am not afraid that the master will be disobedient."

Ying Cailin was shocked when she heard that, it seemed that Ji Keran wanted to take Gu Yunxiao as a hostage and threaten Xiao Xilin, so that he would not dare to act rashly, let alone enter the palace to do bad things to the Houfu.

She lowered her head, thinking that Gu Yunxiao was Ji Keran's crush on a woman for a while, and now she has become a bargaining chip. This man doesn't even bat an eye, he is really cold-blooded.

"Why, madam not willing?"

Ying Cailin shook her head and said with a blank expression: "I got on the same boat as my husband, and I already knew that it was impossible for my hands to be clean. The guards of Bohou's family are ready, and they are waiting for my husband's order. "

With such a big backer from Bohou's family as the backing, Ji Keran was extremely satisfied that he married Bohou's most beloved granddaughter: "Very good, I hope Bohou won't let me down when I have a baby tonight."

Xiao Xilin's ears heard about the change in An Guohou's mansion, he knew that he should dare to go to the palace, after all, he was a close minister in front of the emperor, but he was worried about Gu Yunxiao.

The latter smiled and comforted him: "The Xiao residence is far away from the Marquis of Anguo's residence. Lord Ji's goal is the imperial palace. It is impossible to separate some people to make trouble in the residence. Are you hungry enough?"

After all, Xiao Xilin was a little uneasy, so he left a few Xiao Jiawei behind, and took the rest to the palace to escort him.

Gu Yunxiao had been drowsy for a few days, but suddenly woke up this night, feeling that it was eerily quiet outside, so she sat up suddenly.

Qiu Hong stood guard in front of the couch and reported in a low voice, "Ma'am, someone broke in."

"Who is so courageous to come to Xiao's mansion to act wildly? How about Zhen Guohou's mansion, is it all right?" Gu Yunxiao hurriedly dressed under her service, and saw Qiu Lu standing in front of the door. Hong made a gesture.

"Xiao Yi caught one of them who was alone. He didn't have any marks or family emblems on his body. He didn't know where he came from, but he might be inseparable from An Guohou's mansion." Qiu Hong put on her clothes with a sullen face. Good shoes and socks, quietly pushed open a secret door from the corner: "It can accommodate two people inside, madam avoid it first. Qiu Lu will pretend to be lying on a soft couch to confuse the enemy, so that Xiao Yi can catch them all in one go."

There was no usual smirk on her face, and there was a bit more chill on her face.Only then did Gu Yunxiao remember that the maid in front of her was not an ordinary person, she used to be a member of Xiao Jiawei.

"Be careful, don't get hurt. If you can't hold on, just escape, and I'm sure the adults won't blame you." Gu Yunxiao couldn't help but feel a little worried. The thief who didn't know where it came from was really disturbing.

Qiu Hong held her hand, smiled helplessly: "The madam is the most important thing, if the servant escapes and the young master returns, he will have to peel off a layer of skin from the servant, Xiao Yi is afraid that this time he will be beaten to pieces. Let the son calm down."

After speaking, she heard the sound, quickly closed the secret door, and secretly exchanged a look with Qiu Lu.

Qiu Lu quickly lay down on the soft couch, while Qiu Hong stood by, secretly holding the hidden weapon at her waist.

She didn't dare to tell Gu Yunxiao just now, so as not to worry Madam, in fact, there were as many as 200 thieves who broke into Xiao's mansion.Although the Xiao Jiawei left behind had excellent martial arts skills, they were hard-pressed with two fists and four-handed. He was afraid that both sides would be hurt. Who could protect Gu Yunxiao to the end?
They are all Xiao Jiawei, and they have long understood that one day they will willingly sacrifice their lives for their master.But if Gu Yunxiao is not safe for a moment, everyone will not leave Xiao's residence.

As long as Xiao Xilin came back, it was enough.
