For several days, Jixiang and Tian Muyu were in the backyard of the seafood store looking at the boxes of ledgers that Ouyang Qingfeng had made. From these account books, they found some old cases and accounts of several current officials.

Jixiang is careful and organizes every crime of every official into categories in a new ledger, waiting to be used at the critical moment.

That day, she was sorting out the case of Kou Peilin, the Minister of the Ministry of War, when she heard Xie Dongnan running into the courtyard hurriedly: "Boss, Brother Xiong and Sister-in-law Zaohua are here!"

Ji Xiang happily put down his pen and walked towards the front shop.

In the store, Zaohua was happily looking at the shelves in the store, touching and looking at them happily: "I just said that my sister Jixiang is very capable. Look, she can do things that even you grown men can't do. I was stunned to ask her to do it."

Jixiang came in and stretched out his arms towards Zaohua: "Sister Zaohua!"

The two sisters hugged each other tightly, leaving Xiong Er and Xie Dongnan stunned. Do these two have such a good relationship? When Xiong Er saw that the two sisters were seeing each other and had nothing to do, he asked Xie Dongnan to move the goods to the warehouse with the guys.

Here Jixiang asked Zaohua if she had brought her two children, and Zaohua shouted outside: "February, September, come here to meet your aunt."

Ten-year-old February and eight-year-old September happily came into the house and saluted auspiciously: "Meet my aunt in February (September)."

Ji Xiang saw the two children coming over happily, and went over to hold one by the other hand: "Yes, since you two are here, your mother will not miss Xiaowazi Village anymore. From now on, my aunt will find an academy for you both to go to school." Let your mother help me work."

February and September nodded happily.

September: "Aunt, can I go to the academy to study in September?"

Ji Xiang: "Of course, my aunt also went to the academy to study."

Jiuyue happily hugged Zaohua and looked at his mother with a happy face.

Jixiang: "In this way, I will settle you down first, and then we can discuss the rest of the matter after settling in. Brother Xiong, let Xie Dongnan lead the people to unload the goods, and I will take you to see the yard."

Xie Dongnan: "Brother, the yard that the boss gave you is the one we lived in before. The boss said that it was given to your family. The two guys and I, the boss asked us to move to the back of the store. The yard behind is also very big. I'll take you to see it."

Xiong Er quickly refused: "No, no, that courtyard is so big. It would be a waste for our family to live in it. It's better for the boss to keep it. We can live with Dong Nan and the others in the courtyard behind."

Ji Xiang smiled: "Why, don't you want Sister Zaohua to stay in front of me and help me?"

Zaohua looked at Xiong Er: "I'm here to take care of the girl, and I must live with her."

Ji Xiang: "Brother Xiong, I bought a three-entry courtyard next to our original courtyard. A door was opened between the two courtyards, which is equivalent to one courtyard. This also makes it easier for everyone to take care of each other. The most important thing is Yes, I let Sister Zaohua come in just because I want her to stay with me. If you don't live with me, it will be inconvenient for Sister Zaohua."

Zaohua was happy: "We can live together, as long as our family of four lives in a small courtyard." Then she gave Xiong Er a fist and said, "We are not allowed to look for any other houses. We will live next door to the girl."

When Xiong Er saw that Ji Xiang's arrangements were so appropriate, he stopped insisting: "Then I will send you there."

Several people took a carriage without a carriage and wandered to the courtyard outside the Dali Temple prison.

In February and September, I had never seen a beautiful house with a garden. I was so happy that I looked around as soon as I entered the yard.

After Xiong Er and Zaohua moved their luggage into the house, they both knelt down to Ji Xiang and said, "Boss, please accept my husband's obeisance!" They both kowtowed directly without giving Ji Xiang time to respond.

Ji Xiang quickly grabbed the two of them: "Brother Xiong, Sister Zaohua, what are you doing? How can I bear it?! Get up quickly."

Zaohua was happy with tears in her eyes: "Sister, you will be my Zaohua's master from now on. If you ask me to go east, I will never go west. If you ask me to kill chickens, I will never kill fish!" She glanced at Xiong Er, "My husband and I are where we are today because of you, my wife. We, husband and wife, promise you that we will never do anything sorry to you in this life, even if we think about it!"

Ji Xiang smiled: "Okay, I trust you by letting you come. I don't have any helpers around now, so I have to call you from all the way. If you don't blame me for letting you run all the way with your child, I'll be very grateful. Don't follow me again. Say something else. Come, come, take a look at the rooms first. I have prepared bedding and daily necessities in each room. See what else you need, and we will buy it right away. "

Zaohua hugged Jixiang tightly again: "Sister, don't worry about anything. No matter what is missing in the future, I am here! You are busy with your big things. Leave all these small things in the yard to me from now on."

Ji Xiang smiled: "As soon as Sister Zaohua came, I immediately felt relaxed. Okay, I'll leave the matters in the yard to you. Brother Xiong, there's something I want to ask you."

Xiong Er saw Jixiang's serious expression and motioned for Jixiang to go ahead and talk.

The two walked to the pavilion in the courtyard. Ji Xiang took out the tiger talisman and handed it to Xiong Er to see: "The prince said that this tiger talisman was the token for the late emperor to control the tiger army. The sign was originally divided into two. The former emperor held one piece and the tiger talisman. The leader of the army was together. But until the death of the late emperor, the Tiger Army never appeared."

Xiong Er looked at the Xuantie brand in his hand repeatedly, "The material is the same as the general's token we guard at the border. Maybe it was made by the same blacksmith shop."

Ji Xiang: "Do you know which blacksmith shop it was made from?"

Xiong Er shook his head: "The royal family has a special blacksmith shop, and these Prince Ning may know about it."

Ji Xiang nodded: "I'll ask Prince Ning later. But do you know whose hands these two plaques were before they came into my hands?"

Xiong Er looked at Ji Xiang curiously.

Jixiang said that one piece was lost by King Duan and the other was in the hands of Qi Xiaotian, the owner of Jiyue Villa. Moreover, he casually threw it to Qi Huai, his second son who raised a tiger, and Qi Huai hung half of the tiger talisman around Xiao Fulai's neck.

Xiong Er was surprised: "The one who directed the tiger to attack you that night was the second young master of the Qi family?!"

Ji Xiang nodded.

Xiong Er frowned. He thought for a while and said: "Jiyue Villa arrived in Fengyu County at almost the same time as us. At that time, in order to hide our identity, we chose Xiaowazi Village, a place with few other houses within ten miles. It’s a good place to settle down, but Jiyue Villa is quite high-profile. They chose to build the manor at the foot of Ciyun Temple and next to the main road that must pass in and out of Fengyu.”

Jixiang: "Did King Duan also go to Fengyu County during that time?"

Xiong Er thought for a while and nodded: "Yes, on the day of Jiyue Villa's housewarming banquet, Prince Duan happened to arrive in Fengyu County. I remember that Qi Xiaotian also specially invited the tired Prince Duan to attend the housewarming banquet of their Villa. At that time I was still wondering why Prince Duan went to a housewarming party in a villa, but now that I think about it, they had known each other for a long time."

Ji Xiang: "How much contact will there be between them in the future?"
