Mr. Zhang finished writing the letter to Mr. Ji and sent it out quickly.

The emperor got the news here, and the Ji Mansion asked to send a secret letter to Jiangnan.

Zhao Zhili had just made an appointment with Ji Heng, and Ji's mansion sent a secret letter, which made the emperor think.

Zhao Zhili directly told Ji Heng about the things he mentioned about Mr. Ji, so the Ji government took action.

The emperor really wanted to use Zhao Zhili to mention Jifu.

Because he is still inseparable from Lord Ji for the time being, Lord Ji is a great hero who supports him, he can only praise him, not embarrass him, even if his handling of affairs in Jiangnan does not satisfy the emperor.

So instead, it's better to ask someone to mention his family, so that Mr. Ji can understand the severity and make him satisfied.

And if Mr. Ji had been disrespectful before and enriched his own pockets, he could pretend that he didn't know about it and let the past go.

Although the emperor had this plan in mind, Zhao Zhili really told Ji Heng about it directly, and he felt very upset again, thinking that maybe Ji Heng's relationship with Zhao Zhili was much better than his own.

This made him very jealous, but he couldn't find a way to reconcile the sour taste.

When Ji Heng returned to the inner courtyard, he was surprised to hear laughter coming from Xu Qilang's east room, so he went to Xu Qilang's room first.

Xu Qilang and Mu Zhen are playing backgammon, but they have a good relationship, talking and laughing while playing.

Speaking of Jifu, it's really boring.

One is that it is not allowed to invite troupes to listen to operas.

Second, it is forbidden to invite singers, dancers and jugglers.

Third, gambling is not allowed.

Fourth, it is not allowed to play cricket fighting and throwing pots.

Fifth, it is not allowed to read miscellaneous books.

……

Ji Heng didn't think it was a big deal, but Xu Qilang was often spoiled by boredom, and could hold back everything else, but he often read miscellaneous books secretly.

Xu Shi actually knew about it, but he turned a blind eye to it, seeing that Xu Qilang didn't learn from bad things, so forget it.

So when Mu Zhen came to the Ji Mansion, there was nothing interesting to do, so he could only play chess with Xu Qilang.

Mu Zhen was facing the door. When he saw Ji Heng, he quickly got up and greeted him respectfully, "Master, you are here!"

Xu Qilang also turned his head to look at Ji Heng, and said with a smile, "You are back, come and play chess together."

Ji Heng said: "You guys play, I'll go back and read for a while."

Xu Qilang came over to pull him, "You are so busy that you don't touch the ground every day, it's so boring, let's play chess, whoever loses will get on the table."

Ji Heng was stunned for a moment, "You are messing around."

Xu Qilang didn't take it seriously, "What kind of nonsense is this?"

Ji Heng said: "When a guest finally comes to our house, you bet with them to win or lose. Whether you let the guest get on the table or you get on the table, it's uneducated. It's not nonsense."

Xu Qilang was stunned by Ji Heng's words, because he was helpless, he directly pulled Ji Heng over and hugged him in front of his chest, pressed him on the chair, and said, "You always say I'm messing around, then we have to be like you Just a little old man."

Ji Heng blushed with anger, "Who do you say looks like a little old man?"

Seeing that Ji Heng was angry, Xu Qilang had no choice but to smile and say, "I look like me, it looks like me."

Because he was shameless, Mu Zhen, who was originally embarrassed and shy by Ji Heng, was amused by him again.

Mu Zhen is a young man with a white face and delicate features. He looks a bit like Fourth Aunt. He is a beautiful person. When he smiles like this, he shows a bit of shyness, which makes Ji Heng feel chills.

But the other party was a guest after all, so he turned to Mu Zhen and said, "You are here, stay for a few days before going back."

Mu Zhen hurriedly said: "Thank you, Eldest Young Master, for your kindness. I came today just to see my aunt, but I dare not stay longer. I have to leave soon."

Ji Heng said, "Are you going back so soon? After dinner, it's the same if you send it in a carriage in Fuzhong. Speaking of which, the west gate is not too far away."

Mu Zhen smiled and said, "I'm afraid it will be too much trouble."

Ji Heng said: "We are a family, why be so polite."

Mu Zhen said: "Speaking of which, a while ago, my father secretly went to the gambling house to gamble money. The gambling house didn't want him to enter, saying that someone had ordered him, and he would not entertain him anymore. Moreover, the gambling debts owed by my father have also been paid off. , Our family thought about it, and only thought of you, young master, my mother said, I must express my gratitude to you when I see you."

Ji Heng was a little ashamed, and said: "It's just a little effort, and it's just a solution to a temporary problem, it's not a big help. I really can't stand your thanks."

Mu Zhen said: "Eldest young master, you are so kind, there will be good rewards."

Xu Qilang stood behind Ji Heng and supported his shoulders, and was bored by the polite words of the two, "You guys are really boring, just keep talking about this."

Then, he blinked at Mu Zhen again, Mu Zhen blushed a little, he didn't know if it was shyness or something, and then he said timidly to Ji Heng, "Master, Shi Zhen actually has an unfeeling request."

Ji Heng knew what he wanted to say, and seeing Mu Zhen keep looking at Xu Qilang behind him, he knew that Xu Qilang was supporting and reminding Mu Zhen to say something quickly.

He said, "Go ahead."

Mu Zhen said, "I used to study in social studies, but the teacher and professor there are really not very good. I have to hire a teacher alone, but my family is embarrassed. I wonder if I can come to your house to study with me."

In fact, his mother meant to let him come to Si Yiniang's place and let Si Yiniang tell his wife Xu Shi, but after a few days passed, Si Yiniang didn't tell him.It was probably because Fourth Aunt was always working as an assistant in front of Mrs. Xu, but she was still very angry. She wanted Mrs. Xu to help her, but she kept silent.

Instead, Mu Zhen told Xu Qilang about this matter. Xu Qilang went to school alone in the study at home, very lonely, and wanted to have a company, so he asked him to come directly to Ji Heng.

Ji Heng actually doesn't care, as long as Xu Qilang is willing, he said, "This matter is easy to handle, I just talk to my mother and Mr. Zhang."

Mu Zhen quickly knelt down to thank him, Ji Heng wanted to get up and help him up, but Xu Qilang pressed him tightly, making him unable to move, he raised his head and glared at Xu Qilang, but Xu Qilang smiled and didn't care .

Ji Heng knew what Xu Qilang meant, and now Mu Zhen knelt down and saluted, and he couldn't do it if he didn't take this matter to heart.

Afterwards, Mu Zhen went to Si Yiniang's place again, and after saying goodbye, he was sent back by Ji's carriage.

Ji Heng said to Xu Qilang in his room, "You haven't seen this Mu Zhen a few times, but we have a very good relationship."

Xu Qilang said, "It's not very good, I just think he is shy and blushes easily, which is quite interesting."

Ji Heng frowned and said, "Don't have any wrong thoughts."

Xu Qilang was puzzled, "What kind of crooked thinking."

Ji Heng said, "What do you say?"

Seeing Ji Heng's black eyes, Xu Qilang understood instantly. He suddenly said as if he was being insulted, "Brother Heng, what do you mean? Do you think I treat him well?"

Ji Heng glanced at him and said, "It's best not to have one. He is Si Yiniang's nephew and the only son of the Mu family. If something happens, Si Yiniang probably won't quit."

Xu Qilang was really angry now, his face flushed with anger at Ji Heng, but he didn't know how to get angry with Ji Heng, so he just flicked his sleeves and said, "You didn't think of me in your heart. "

After speaking, the man ran out.

After Ji Heng finished speaking, he also felt regretful. In fact, he just wanted to warn Xu Qilang. In his eyes, Xu Qilang was not his cousin, but his little brother. It was his responsibility to take care of Xu Qilang. where.

After all, although Mrs. Xu can also take care of Xu Qilang, she is usually very busy and doesn't spend much time on Xu Qilang. As for these inner house matters, the former master didn't take care of Xu Qilang, so the responsibility fell to Ji Heng Ji Heng thought so.

Seeing that Xu Qilang had run away, Ji Heng had no choice but to go out to look for him, but he couldn't find anyone after searching twice. He asked the servants at home, but they said they didn't see him.

Ji Heng knew that he might be hiding again, thinking that it would be better for Xu Qilang to think about his own behavior for a while, so he didn't go to him.

Sitting at the dinner table when the Chinese lights were shining brightly in the courtyard, Ji Heng was surprised that Xu Qilang was still not there.

Xu Qilang's personal maid, Ying'er, was called to ask, "Where is your master?"

Ying'er was also surprised, "I haven't seen him all this time, I thought he was in your room, young master."

Mrs. Xu was spooning soup for Ji Heng and Xu Qilang himself, and immediately said: "I don't see him here, hurry up and ask him to eat, or it will be cold."

As a result, I searched everywhere and still couldn't find it.

Xu Qilang didn't know where he went.

Ji Heng ate only half a bowl of rice and couldn't eat any more. He said to Mrs. Xu, "I offended him this afternoon. I'm afraid he's angry with me. I'll go get him back."

Xu said, "Oh, this child is the most difficult to manage at this age. Hurry up and find him for dinner."

I searched everywhere at home, but I still couldn't find it. Later, Ying'er found out about the situation and came to Ji Heng and said, "My young master went out, and he rode a horse. Xiangzi in the stable said he rode a horse and left. , and asked him where he was going, he ignored no one and rushed out like the wind."

Ji Heng's face darkened to the bottom, thinking that this child deserved a beating.

He thought for a long time before he remembered that Xu Qilang might be looking for Xia Jin.

Ji Hengrang prepared the carriage, and went to tell Xu Shi again that he was going out to find Xu Qilang and come back.

Mrs. Xu was very worried, so she said, "Just let the people below look for it. It's already dark, so it's not good for you to go out."

Ji Heng said: "Mother, I'm going out in a carriage, what can I do. Besides, I offended him, I'm afraid he won't come back if I go to someone else."

Mrs. Xu had no choice but to nod in agreement, and said again, "I brought him back, I have to reprimand him a few words. He is such a big man, he is running around."

Ji Heng smiled at her, "Today is my fault."

Mrs. Xu said: "You two brothers have grown up too. I can't manage some things, but in the end we must be harmonious."

Ji Heng nodded in agreement, and asked Mrs. Xu to rest earlier, before going out in a carriage.
