The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world
Chapter 99 Night visit to Shangshu Mansion
Qi Yue: "Miss Ji needs to check this herself. However, if you need my help, I would be honored."
Ji Xiang stood up and said, "Give Third Young Master Qi a pot of good tea!"
"Yes." Erya quickly went out to find the waiter.
Ji Xiang: "Thank you, Third Young Master Qi, for telling me frankly. Today's tea is mine. I will consider whether to ask Third Young Master Qi for help after I finish handling the funeral affairs of my Ji family."
"Okay, okay, I'll wait for your news." Qi Yue was happy.
Ji Xiang: "If Mr. Qi needs to leave the capital, please provide new contact information so that I can contact you."
"Okay, okay, but I won't leave the capital in a short time. Miss Ji can come to Qi Mansion on Chunxi Street to find me at any time." Qi Yue said.
Jixiang nodded, "Jixiang thanks Mr. Qi first. There are too many things at home and I can't stay with Mr. Qi for a long time, so I'm leaving now." Turning around and walking out, Zaohua hurriedly followed.
Qi Yue kept watching Ji Xiang go out and the waiter came in with some fresh tea, then he looked back and sat down again, "Princess Ning? Is it too early to call her Princess Ning now?" Qi Yue muttered.
Jixiang and Zaohua came out, and Erya was waiting at the door, "Miss, are you going back home?"
Jixiang thought for a while: "Go to Chunhe Building."
The newly opened Chunhelou specializes in seafood and has a booming business.
Jixiang, Zaohua, and Erya came over in a carriage and saw a long line of people waiting to dine in front of the store, and the carriage couldn't get through at all.
Jixiang: "Get off the car here, we'll go in through the back door."
"Yes," Zaohua jumped out of the car first and helped Jixiang carefully get out of the carriage. "My girl's body is just right. She really shouldn't be running around like this."
Ji Xiang waved his hand to the coachman and said, "Wait for us at the back door in a moment."
"Yes." The driver turned out to be Guard Li.
As soon as Jixiang and the other three entered through the back door of Chunhe Building, Xie Dongnan got the news and hurriedly came to greet them: "Miss, please come upstairs."
Chunhe Building has four floors in total. Xie Dongnan specially arranged a suite for Jixiang on the fourth floor, where he can not only eat but also rest.
Ji Xiang didn't expect Xie Dongnan to arrange it so well. He smiled, "Originally I was a little worried about handing over the restaurant to you, but now it seems that our boss Xie is fully qualified."
Xie Dongnan: "This is the idea that Brother Xiong gave me, asking me to reserve a room for the eldest lady. Otherwise, how could I have thought of this? If the eldest lady wants to stay, just book this room directly."
Jixiang looked at Zaohua and said, "My brother Xiong is also a good hand in business."
Zaohua smiled, "Without a girl to help him, he is nothing."
Ji Xiang smiled and looked at Xie Dongnan, "Let brothers Zhao Dong and Zhao Xi take charge of the specialty store. From now on, you will be mainly responsible for the restaurant. Also, how are the preparations for the medical clinic?"
"The store has been renovated, and we are waiting for the eldest lady to come and open it. But we don't have a name yet. What name will the eldest lady give the hospital?" Xie Dongnan was respectful. Ever since Jixiang helped them open the seafood store, he She felt that their boss was omnipotent, so when she asked him to take charge of the restaurant, he started doing it right away.
Ji Xiang thought for a while, "Let's call it 'Xuanyi Pavilion'. By the way, take Sister Zaohua and Erya to the lobby below, serve them some special dishes of our restaurant, and call Brother Xiong over. I have something to do." We need to discuss it with him."
"Yes." Xie Dongnan agreed and asked Zaohua and Erya to go down with him, "Sister-in-law, Erya, come on, I will go downstairs and arrange a seat for you to watch the scenery."
Zaohua looked at the auspiciousness: "Sister, you..."
Ji Xiang: "I can't eat now. Go ahead. I have something else to tell Brother Bear."
Zaohua knew that what Jixiang was talking about must be a big deal. After all, they had just heard that the massacre of the Ji family was related to the Minister of War, so they wisely followed Xie Dongnan with Erya.
Xiong Er quickly came to the private room, "Miss."
"Has there been any discovery from the Minister of War's office?" Jixiang asked.
Xiong Er: "It's been surprisingly quiet these days. Kou Peilin didn't go anywhere except to go to court every day. He stayed at home all the time. In the past, the door of their house was full of visitors every day, but it has stopped in the past two days. There are no visitors at all. ”
"Oh, this is strange." Ji Xiang frowned, "Did Kou Peilin discover something? He is a member of the prince's party, so if anything happens to the prince, he will be involved. It makes sense to be cautious these days, but there is no need to be so Be cautious, right?”
Xiong Er: "Last night, the study smelled of burning paper."
Ji Xiang was startled: "When exactly?"
Xiong Er thought for a while: "It's three o'clock in the morning, and soon after, I heard the watchman's whistle ringing louder."
Ji Xiang thought for a while: "I'm going to the Shangshu Mansion tonight. Draw me where the study is."
Xiong Er: "Miss, leave this to me. Whatever you need to find, I will help you find it."
Ji Xiang: "No, I have to go there myself."
Xiong Er: "Then I will bring a few brothers to protect you."
Ji Xiang nodded.
Xiong Er found paper and pen and started drawing.
It was night, and several black shadows jumped up the high wall of the Kou Mansion. Under the cover of the dense canopy of trees, the jumping shadows climbed onto the roof. They moved along the roof towards the study in the center of the mansion.
In the study, the lights were out, and Kou Peilin sent his servant to lie down on the couch alone, looking at the row of bookshelves in the moonlight.
On the bookshelf are military books he has collected over the years.
Kou Peilin also held a military book in his hand. The paper in this book was old and the corners were badly worn. It looked like it was old at first glance.
Looking at the book in his hand, scenes from the past unfold before his eyes. I think back to that year, when Kou Peilin, who was in his thirties, followed the young General Xiong to guard the northwest fortress. Under the leadership of the high-spirited general, he blocked the invading Yuan Kingdom cavalry at the border again and again. outside.
Suddenly, there was a slight sound above his head, and Kou Peilin's eyes were like torches, staring at the roof above his head.
On the roof, Jixiang carefully knelt down and lifted a piece of tile.
The gap in the roof opened, and it was so dark that nothing could be seen clearly.
Ji Xiang took out the rope he brought with him and prepared to enter the study through the gap. She had just fixed the rope and was about to lean in when suddenly several steel needles shot out from the study and flew out from the gap.
Xiong Er immediately stepped forward.
Ji Xiang was not injured by the steel needle and signaled to Xiong Er not to worry. She gave Xiong Er a sign to retreat, and several people quickly slipped off the roof and fell into the courtyard.
The study door creaked open, and Kou Peilin walked out. His hawk-like eyes quickly scanned around and clearly saw the positions of Xiong Er and others.
"You all are here late at night, aren't you here specifically to see me, Kou?" Kou Peilin's voice was low but somewhat majestic.
"Of course not. We are here to get our own things." Ji Xiang was not afraid.
"Oh, do you still have your own things in our Kou Mansion?" Kou Peilin sneered twice, "Why don't I, the master of the house, know about this?"
"Master Kou is such a noble man who forgets things. Is "The Art of War" in your hands?" Jixiang asked.
Kou Peilin was startled, how could this man know that he had the book "The Art of War" in his hand?
When Kou Peilin was stunned, he didn't know that Xiong Er, who was hiding in the dark not far away, was also stunned at the same time. He looked at Ji Xiang in surprise, his eyes full of astonishment.
