The prince would not care about Lord Ji's behavior, but in order to make the play real, he did not let anyone get up. Instead, he said in a cold voice: "Does the Marquis know the purpose of coming here?"

Lord Ji and the others were full of fear: "I don't know, sir."

"Oh, the Marquis is pretending really well! Let me tell you. Tonight, when the deputy commander, General Lin, was chasing fugitives, he accidentally ran into Guan Qing, the shopkeeper of Zhishantang, buying and selling arms with foreign businessmen. The shopkeeper had already confessed to Zhishan The hall is the property of the Ji family, and this matter is entirely at the instruction of the Ji family. What else does the Marquis have to say?"

[Ouch, Prince, why don't you let daddy get up? It's very uncomfortable for me to bend over like this, okay? 】

After hearing his voice, Lord Ji devoted himself to his daughter, regardless of whether it would displease the prince. Stand up straight. The second prince's proud look was a little funny: "Zhishantang is indeed the Ji family's property, but where does the Second Highness's talk about buying and selling arms with foreign businessmen start?"

"Oh, just admit it. We will bring witnesses and evidence in a moment. Let's see how much more quibbling Mr. Ji can do?" The second prince's face was full of confidence.

But they saw that Lord Ji looked calm and composed after hearing this. Not only that, but Ji Yushu and Ji Linfeng behind him also looked like it had nothing to do with them. I feel bad.

By the way, why hasn't Lin Ze brought the people and boxes over yet?
[Oh, the second prince and Wei Chen are too impatient. Don't they wait for the matter to be finalized before surrounding the Ji family? How could he sit in that position if he was so careless? 】

[Yes, they can't wait to see the Ji family in trouble. How happy are Mrs. Lin’s family at this moment? 】

Ji Linfeng thought to himself: Isn't it just too hasty? I'm not afraid of anything going wrong on the road. That's huge evidence.

"How can you quibble about something you have never done? It was the Second Prince and General Wei who led people around the Ji family so quickly. Those who didn't know better thought they had planned it."

"Look, the total number of officers and soldiers around is not one thousand but eight hundred, right? In the prosperous times, if you want to mobilize so many people, you have to go through a lot of procedures. General Wei gathered the people so quickly, Those who don’t know think that General Wei wants to”

Anyone can hear the hidden meaning in Lord Ji's words. The second prince and Wei Chen looked at the prince at the same time, and saw that the prince's face was so gloomy that water could drip from his eyes.

Wei Chen shouted angrily: "Ji Xiaoshan, don't evade the important and take the easy. If you do this, you will not be able to escape the charge of selling ordnance privately. Someone, come and hurry up Deputy General Lin."

He couldn't wait to see the horrified expressions on the prince's and Ji's faces.

"Yes." One of his subordinates ran away in a hurry.

Lord Ji looked calm. "Then I am just waiting for General Wei to bring the witnesses and physical evidence. I want to see if General Wei is deliberately making things difficult or if he really finds any evidence."

After that, he put Ji Hua on the ground in front of everyone and taught her how to get started in a serious manner. "Come on, dear girl, let me teach you how to walk. Lift one foot first and step forward. Yes, that's it, then lift the second foot."

Everyone looked at each other in shock when they saw Lord Ji's behavior. Even though death is imminent, are you still interested in teaching your daughter how to walk? So many people gathered outside Ji's house tonight, and they called the prince again. It can be seen that Wei Chen and the second prince are bound to win. Aren't the Ji family in a hurry?

Most of the people present said they couldn't understand. Why can the Ji family remain so calm in the face of crisis?

The calmer the Ji family became, the more uneasy the second prince felt. But he quickly suppressed this uneasiness. Could it be possible that Vice General Lin put the things in personally and made a mistake?

Let’s see what tricks the Ji family wants to play.

"Ouch, my little girl is really capable. She knows how to walk at such a young age. If Mrs. Qin's granddaughter is still here, will she be able to walk?" Here, Lord Ji praised Ji Hua with a look of relief. [Hey, daddy is talking about the one who switched contracts with me? Didn’t it mean that the Qin family all died halfway? That child shouldn't be spared, right? 】

Lord Ji mentioned Mrs. Qin at this time because he deliberately made Weichen angry.

Sure enough, Wei Chen was angry. The eyes looking at the Ji family seemed to be quenched with poison.

When Lord Ji mentioned Mrs. Qin, the prince's expression flashed slightly. As soon as that matter was announced, Weichen would definitely jump into a panic. One hundred thousand troops are his biggest support. So before that, we have to force him to hand over his military power.

Ji Hua chuckled.

[Dad knows how to irritate people. Mentioning Mrs. Qin at this time will make Wei Chen think of the third prince and his own ambitions being cut off. 】

[However, does Wei Chen know the secret of the Qin family’s desire to switch contracts with the Ji family? I probably don’t know. He might even want to be an oriole. When the third prince ascends the throne, he will get rid of the Qin family. Sheng Yu's empire belongs to his Wei family. Haha, what a wily and scheming person. Use the Qin family's hands to do all the bad things, and finally enjoy the power of the fisherman. If the Qin family knew about it, they would be so angry that they would crawl out of the ground. 】

[Wei Chen’s only regret now is that he didn’t recognize the third prince. No, they have probably known each other for a long time, we just didn’t know it. Now, what the prince fears most is the 100,000 soldiers in his hands. Unless absolutely necessary, it is best not to use knives or guns to avoid hurting the people. 】

After a while, the subordinate who ran away came back, followed by Lin Ze, who was ashen-faced. There are no witnesses or physical evidence.

Hearing the footsteps, Wei Chen turned his head. Seeing that only Lin Ze came back alone, the proud smile on his face suddenly froze. He stepped forward hastily. He said in panic: "Vice General Lin, where are the people? Where is the box?" Wei Chen had a very bad premonition in his heart.

Lin Ze knelt on the ground with a thud. "General, that, that box is full of medicinal materials, and there is no crossbow."

The prince immediately stepped forward and asked with a gloomy face: "General Wei, what is going on?"

Before Wei Chen could come up with a countermeasure, Lord Ji immediately came forward with Ji Hua in his arms. If his daughter hadn't said she wanted to eat melon, he would never have taken her out so late to enjoy the cold air.

Lord Ji took a step forward and said in a strange tone: "Oh my, why does Vice-General Lin look so disappointed that he didn't find the crossbow? Do you have bad eyesight? Do you see the fugitive as a crossbow?"

[Pfft hahaha, what dad said hit the nail on the head. Lieutenant General Lin probably didn't expect that he wanted to frame the Ji family, but the dirt disappeared. 】

Ji Yushu took a step forward and answered: "I think he is not dazzled, but he has really seen a crossbow." After speaking, Ji Yushu turned around and knelt in front of the prince and said: "Your Highness, please give me your orders." People should investigate this matter carefully. Where has Vice General Lin seen a crossbow? You must know that the crossbow is an important military opportunity."

Lieutenant General Lin was frightened and hurriedly knelt in front of the prince and kowtowed: "No, no, no, the general has never seen any crossbows. It was the general who saw it wrong. It was the general who was dazzled that he reported the matter to Wei." General, this has caused such a big misunderstanding.”

If this investigation continues, his life will be at stake!

He couldn't understand why such a sophisticated plan had such a big change.

He clearly put the crossbow into the medicine box himself. Then he stayed not far away. Why, why did the things inside disappear?
