Warlock Toxic General Please Control Yourself

Chapter 152 The person who attacked Kiko Qi

Her heart moved, and she quickly thanked and apologized: "Thank you, thank you, I'm really sorry."

When I looked up, I saw someone I was not very familiar with, but I knew him.

In the case of Mrs. Liu back then, the upright official Mr. Yang.

"Master Yang?" Ji Ziqi's eyes widened, "Why are you here? Are you here to handle a case?"

"Miss Ji?" Master Yang also seemed a little surprised, but his face was a little unnatural, "Because the lady at home loves this dessert, and I heard that there is a new lotus flower cake here.

The next official is taking a rest today, so I took advantage of my free time to come over and buy some and bring them home on the way, so that my wife and the dog at home can taste them! "

Master Yang raised the cakes he had bought in his hands, "Miss Ji also came here to buy lotus cakes?"

"Yes." Ji Ziqi said: "Ziqi also heard that this lotus cake is good, and I want to buy some to teach my grandfather to respect."

After the two talked, it was Ji Ziqi's turn, and the shop clerk said, "Little lady, how much is it?"

"Two catties!" Ji Ziqi turned his head and replied.

On the side, Mr. Yang said: "Miss Ji, you are busy first, and I will take my leave first."

"Master Yang, walk slowly, Ziqi will not see you off."

Ji Ziqi stared at Master Yang leaving in a hurry, thinking of the strange fragrance just now, narrowed his eyes slightly, thoughtful.

"Little lady, what you want has already been packed, a total of fifty coins!"

Ji Ziqi came back to his senses, and took out a piece of broken silver from his sleeve.

When walking back to the carriage, Du Le asked: "Miss Ji, are you okay just now? I was about to go over and saw you chatting with that person. I must be an acquaintance, so I didn't go over."

Ji Ziqi asked inappropriately: "Du Le, can we find Du An and Du Xi now?"

"Yes! Miss Ji wants to see the two of them?"

"Yes, you tell them to go to Ji's mansion now." Ji Ziqi said: "I have something to discuss with them!"

Ji Ziqi didn't know what method Du Le used to contact the two. Maybe it was the legendary hidden guard who passed the message in between. Not long after she arrived, Du An and Du Xi arrived.

"Miss Ji, what's new?" Duane asked.

"Yes," Ji Ziqi nodded, "Didn't you say before that the person who attacked me that time was related to the people from the Ministry of Punishment?
Today I found a man, I think we can check from him. "

Duane asked, "Who?"

"Master Yang!" Ji Ziqi said, "Master Yang, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment!"

"Master Yang?" Du An and Du Xi exclaimed at the same time, "How is that possible?"

Du An, who has always been calm and self-controlled, had an incredible expression on his face: "Miss Ji, are you right? How could it be Master Yang?"

Du Xi said: "Master Yang has been an official for many years, he is the most impartial and honest, there has never been an unjust or wrong case under his command.

Moreover, he has always been clean and self-conscious, and has a very good relationship with the wife at home, and he has no concubines or the like.

In terms of official style and conduct, no one can find fault. He is a impartial and selfless person.Both the master and the young master admire him very much! "

Ji Ziqi has been in Beijing for almost a year, but he spends most of his time dealing with exams in the spell competition and other matters, and knows little about the officials in Beijing.

When Duan and Du Xi said this, she couldn't help being a little confused.Could it be that she was thinking too much?
Du An said: "Why does Miss Ji suspect Master Yang?"

"Today Senior Brother Tian and I went to Linxianju, and we accidentally smelled a very strange fragrance from Qin Niang's body, light and enchanting at the same time, like mint and rose mixed together.

Later, I accidentally ran into Mr. Yang in front of Zhang Ji's snack shop, and it happened that he also had this kind of fragrance on him!So the idea was born. "

Ji Ziqi said: "Maybe I was wrong. I don't have much research on the fragrance used by women. Maybe Mrs. Yang's wife, Mrs. Yang, also likes this kind of fragrance, so Mrs. Yang has that light fragrance on her body."

Du An said: "For the time being, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has not found any suspicious officials who have contacts with Linxianju. Since it has not been found for the time being, we can investigate according to Miss Ji's doubts!"

"Will it be too much trouble?" Ji Ziqi asked.

Du Xi said: "It doesn't matter whether you investigate the case openly or secretly, there are often cases where you investigate in the wrong direction, Miss Ji don't need to care! This time, let's pretend that we are using the method of elimination, and start with Mr. Yang!"

Ji Ziqi nodded, "Speaking of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, I have an idea. I don't know if it's feasible or not?"

Du An said: "Miss Ji, please tell me!"

Ji Ziqi said: "Let's secretly search for the group of people who pretended to attack me and Mrs. Lin, and then design to make some of them desperate.

If those people come to Beijing to seek help from a certain official, especially someone related to the Ministry of Officials, wouldn't they be able to know who is behind the scenes? "

Du Xi's smile on his face all the year round showed a bit of appreciation, if this young lady did something bad, no, if she got it together, she would probably make the other party just raise her hands and surrender.

"Miss Ji, I have already arranged for someone to investigate, but Du's residence has always had little contact with people in the Jianghu, and the whereabouts of those people have not been found yet. Hehe!"

Ji Ziqi said: "I do know someone who should be able to help us!"

"Who?"

"The dumb uncle next to Su Xiaonian, the master of the Su family." Ji Ziqi said: "According to him, he and Su Xiaonian entered the Shaxue Hall at the same time, they were both killers and became famous very early.

Later, because of the crime of talking and talking, Su Xiaonian was almost implicated, so he punished himself not to speak in his lifetime, and volunteered to be a servant by Su Xiaonian's side.

After Su Xiaonian quit the Shaxue Hall, he joined His Majesty's private Dark Phoenix organization, because she still needed to contact people in the world in secret.

As his assistant, Uncle Dumb must still know all about the world affairs.

In a few days, as soon as Su Xiaonian and Mrs. Su's head is over, Su Jinyan will bring the dumb uncle to Beijing.

At that time, he can be invited to investigate the matter, and the result will be resolved soon. "

Duane said: "It's really great."

Du Xi said: "With regard to Lin Xianju Lian's shopkeeper, there is no special situation found for the time being, but there is news from Nanlin that the small room has changed its owner.

Calculating the date, it was around the time after Ms. Ji left Nanlin, and she sold it to a local wealthy businessman at a very low price.

I have already sent someone to draw a portrait of shopkeeper Lian, and sneaked into Xiqiang secretly, but Xiqiang is far away, and it will take about 20 days at the earliest for news to come back. "

Ji Ziqi said: "During the days of checking the accounts, I suddenly remembered that I forgot one thing.

When I first looked at the general ledger, after two days of reading it, I found no flaws. At that time, I thought in my heart that the person doing the ledger must be a very powerful person!It can be done so flawlessly!

There are so many things these days, and this matter has been pulled down: Who made the ledger?In other words, who is instigating the accounting of this ledger behind the scenes? "

"If this bookkeeping can be done to the extent that Miss Ji can't see the problem, I'm afraid it's the only one." Duan Duxi glanced at each other, "People from the Artisan Association!"

"That's right!" Ji Ziqi said, "Even if he's not in the Magician Association, he must be a second-class magician or above."

Du An said: "Du Le! Pass the order down, all the second-class and above magicians who entered Linxianju openly or secretly, or the second-class and above magicians who were actively contacted by the people in Linxianju, all of them should be recorded first, and then they will be sent out again." Check it out!"

"Yes!"

-

On the fifth day of the eighth month, Su Jinyan, who kept his heads full for Su Xiaonian and Mrs. Su, arrived in the capital with his dumb uncle.

The Ji family who received the news first were waiting at the door for their arrival.

At almost dusk, the sound of Dada's horseshoes came from the street. In the afterglow of the setting sun, one person, one horse, and one cart, dyed with golden light, were heading towards the Chiang Mansion.

Uncle Dumb stopped at the gate of Jiang's Mansion in his carriage.Su Jinyan jumped off the carriage.

It was still the handsome eyebrows and eyes, which had been missing for more than a month. Ji Ziqi found that the proud and sunny Su Jinyan in his memory had completely disappeared.

Instead, Su Jinyan was resolute and icy, exuding chill and chill all over his body.

Even though he smiled after seeing Ji's family, he couldn't dispel the anger and coldness in his eyes, as if he was born with it.

Jiang Ling and the others couldn't believe that the young man in front of them was the lively and cheerful young master Su Jinyan who had been in trouble with Xiaofeng and Xiaoyu every day in Tianshun Su Mansion.

Su Jinyan cupped his hands and saluted: "See Uncle Ji, Aunt Ji!"

Turning to Xiaoyu Xiaofeng again, he smiled, "How is Xiaoyu Xiaofeng recently? And Xiaoxing, can he talk yet?"

Xiao Yu's beautiful eyes kept blinking, her charming pink lips were half parted in surprise, and she tentatively called out, "Master?"

Xiaofeng still couldn't believe it: "Brother Young Master?"

Only Xiaoxing, who has a super memory for people, seemed not to be affected by Su Jinyan's transformation at all, stretched out his hand to Su Jinyan, and said softly: "Big brother, hug!"

Su Jinyan smiled at him, "Xiao Xing is so good, it's not convenient for brother to hug you now!"

Jiang Ling, who was afraid that Xiao Xing would be rejected and hurt, hurriedly hugged him into her arms, "Come on, mother, mother wants to hug us Xiao Xing."

"Young master has worked hard all the way, let's go in first and talk about it!" said the head of the family, Ji Zhongchun.

"No, Uncle Ji!" Su Jinyan politely refused: "I have a filial piety, and there are old and young in your house, it's not very convenient.

I've already found an inn, I'll stay here for a few days, and tomorrow I'll start looking for a yard to live in. "

"Master!" Xiao Yu exclaimed, "Aren't you going to live with us?"

"No!" The current Xiao Yu is also no longer the delicate and smart little girl that Su Jinyan remembered playing together, but has become a stunning little lady with a charming style.

No matter how the internal and external temperament changes, the changes in the body are unmatched by the years. Su Jinyan, who is also in adolescence, is a little afraid to look at her directly, "I will come and play with Xiaofeng when I have time."

"Brother Young Master!" Xiaofeng's face was also full of disappointment, "Xiaofeng cleaned up the garden on purpose, just waiting for Brother Young Master to come."

Su Jinyan patted Xiaofeng's head, and said softly: "Xiaofeng is so good! From now on, it's fine to call Jinyan brother. There are also uncles and aunts, Ziqi Xiaoyu, just call me Jinyan from now on."

"I don't!" Xiaofeng pouted, his big round eyes filled with stubbornness, "You are Xiaofeng's young master brother! And you will always be in the future!"

Xiao Yu followed suit and said, "Master, Xiao Yu is already used to calling me, and I don't want to change my mouth."

Jiang Ling changed his words according to his intentions, "Sincerely, you used to take care of Xiaoxue's third sibling, and now it's time for aunt to repay.

Xiaofeng's garden is big, and the house has been packed, so you can move in and live together! "

"No, Auntie!" Su Jinyan said no more, with a faint smile on his face, but it showed his determination.

"Mother, since Jinyan has already booked the inn, let him go to rest first, let's talk tomorrow if there is anything to do!"

After seeing Su Jinyan's changes in Tianshun with his own eyes, Ji Ziqi knew that this young man was no longer the easy-going young master he used to be, "Jinyan, I'm taking you to the inn. I just have something to do. Let's go together. Talk all the way!"

If there is something to say, it is naturally about Su Xiaonian!Su Jinyan nodded and bid farewell to the Ji family.

The driver of the carriage was replaced by Du Le, and Ji Ziqi and his dumb uncle Su Jinyan sat in the carriage at the same time.

Then she told the two of the relevant information she found these days.

"After the master was assassinated, I guessed that this case must be very involved. I didn't expect that even the Xiqiang and Artisan Association would be involved!" the dumb uncle sighed.

"It's just a suspicion right now, everything has yet to be confirmed." Ji Ziqi said: "But now there is something I need to trouble Uncle Mute."

"What's the matter?" the dumb uncle asked.

"A few days ago, I, my great-grandfather Mr. Lin and my uncle Mr. Fan were attacked on the same day, but they did not directly attack anyone.

Xiaofeng and Xiaoyu also have strangers from the rivers and lakes who watch them outside the academy with long swords on their backs.

All of this was done without any concealment, it was clearly a threat.His Majesty the Emperor was furious when he found out, and ordered the entire capital to search and arrest, and those people in the rivers and lakes fled.

Later, after I communicated with Du An and Du Xi in the Du Mansion, I thought that the behind-the-scenes mastermind of all this might be the involvement of officials.

I want to find the group of people who threatened us back then, but the Du Mansion doesn't have many contacts with people in the Jianghu, so I haven't found anyone for the time being. "

Ji Ziqi said: "Uncle Dumb, you have been famous in Jianghu for a long time, you must have connections to find those people."

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, how dare you attack the important officials of the court? These people who can take risks for such a little money must not be some capable people." Uncle Dumb sneered,
"Although I have retired for a long time, I still have the appeal to find some young people. This matter is on Uncle Dumb! You tell Uncle Dumb, what should you do after you find someone?"

Ji Ziqi said: "Just find someone! For the details later, Du Xi will send someone to do it, and you don't need to do it yourself, Uncle Dumb."

-

On the day Su Jinyan arrived in Beijing, General Xiqiang Company launched an attack on Tianshui Army.

General Liancheng was quite famous in the Western Qiang. Xi Liemo, the king of the Western Qiang, attached great importance to the battle against Tianshui, and specially sent him to lead troops to garrison the border to ensure victory in the battle with Li.

It didn't take long for Suizhi to encounter two setbacks.

For the first time, Du Feng, a new general in Tianshui, launched an attack out of the blue.

General Lian was secretly happy at that time, the Xiqiang Army had already been secretly deployed, and this move of the Tianshui Army was like sending them into the tiger's mouth.

He ordered the vanguard army to pretend to be defeated and lure the enemy to go deep, intending to deal the most painful blow to the Tianshui army.

As a result, Du Feng broke out with the newly formed Tianshui Army, and both sides suffered heavy losses.

It could barely be considered a draw, but for General Lian, who had already prepared for it, the opponent was just a motley army who had just come to Tianshui for a month, and it was a great humiliation in his life to be tied with his well-trained Lian family army. !

The second time, the Tianshui army took the initiative to attack again. This time they used a new type of weapon, the trebuchet.

Countless boulders fell from the sky, and the Lian family army could not avoid it. Most of those who were hit hard died on the spot, and some escaped by luck. At least they paid the price of losing an arm or a leg!
Under such power, the army's morale was low, and they had no choice but to order a retreat of [-] miles. They were glad that the Tianshui army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue.

Now, with the efforts of the king and the national teacher, a trebuchet was also manufactured, and even the general had a stomach full of anger, and finally had an outlet to vent.

After the trebuchet was in place, General Lian immediately arranged training, requiring him to master the tricks of projectile within five days.

Because he planned to attack in five days.

The Lian family army, who had lost twice in a row, also had high morale, and vowed to use the help and cover of the trebuchet to fight for shame.

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, everything was in place, and the Xiqiang Lianjia Army blew the horn of attack.

As a result, Lian Jiajun, who was originally full of confidence, was beaten dumbfounded by Tianshui Army as soon as he entered the field.

Our own trebuchets only threw once, and some of them were hit directly by the opponent without even throwing once.

The opponent's stones were projected continuously, and the screams of the soldiers and the screams of the horses being hit were all in my ears.

Although some of the Tianshui army was hit, most of them avoided it.

General Lian, who was standing on the general's car, watched the battle in front of him not far away, and couldn't believe what he saw.

What kind of magic tricks can't be used by the navy today?Not to mention the catapults that can hit them, but also avoid the stones they throw!
General Lian was filled with grief and indignation. Although he was unwilling, the soldiers who had accompanied him for decades fell one by one in front of him.

As a last resort, he ordered his followers to raise the flag in their hands, "Retreat-retreat!"

This time, with the supply of military supplies sufficient, Du Feng ordered to pursue the victory.

The Tianshui army was very excited. They were worried that they would be stopped suddenly when they were fighting vigorously like last time.

This time, they looked like hungry wolves in the sheepfold, their eyes were red and their blood was boiling.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Du Feng gave the order to stop the pursuit.

The Lian family army did not dare to stay where they were, and continued to march through the night. By dawn, they had almost retreated more than 50 miles.

General Lian, who hadn't slept all day and all night, immediately reported the situation of the battle to Xi Liemo, and begged to be punished!
The letter was delivered to Xi Liemo that night.

Xi Liemo, who was waiting for the news of the victory, immediately cast a shadow over his handsome and unparalleled face, and passed the letter to the national teacher beside him.

The national teacher was about sixty years old, with white hair all over his head, thin body, straight back, drooping corners of his mouth, quite majestic.

Its appearance is quite different from the deep outline of Xiqiang, but it is consistent with Li people.

After reading it, the national teacher snorted heavily, "My lord, the old man asked me to bring Ji Ziqi back no matter what! If it doesn't work, I will kill him!"
The king cherishes talents and doesn't listen to the old man's words, that's why today's defeat happened!

Ji Ziqi came up with a way to break the trebuchet, but the old man is incompetent and powerless to break this situation!

If this woman still stays in the Li country, the last king's will may not be fulfilled!Also ask the king to make a decision early! "

Xi Liemo's face was gloomy. He really didn't expect that after Ji Ziqi returned to the capital of the Li Kingdom, he would repeatedly break the situation that the national teacher and the former king had deployed for more than ten years. The method of machine!
The national teacher continued: "Now, the Li Guoshu Association has entered a period of rectification, and the bureau that I have painstakingly arranged for more than ten years has basically been abolished.

It is already at the level of Western Qiang's art, if the Li country's art is on the right track, it will not be able to compete with it.

Now in terms of military strength, our soldiers are superior to each other in terms of physical strength and war horses. The Li country has been rich for many years, and it is difficult to recruit military strength, but our Xiqiang can make all the people soldiers.

However, the country of Li already has a solution to the trebuchet matter, so if we match up like this, I, Xiqiang, will not get any benefit!

The only way out now is to send someone to arrest Ji Ziqi immediately at the expense of exposing the person who has been hiding in Beijing for many years, and if that fails, kill him.

In this way, we, the Western Qiang side, have the opportunity to make another picture of Xu Zhi! "

Seeing some hesitation on Xi Liemo's face, the national teacher knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty! You have once softened your heart and made a big mistake, ruining the relationship between the former King and the old man for more than ten years.

Don't miss it again, otherwise Xiqiang will be in great trouble! "

Xi Liemo hastily helped up the national teacher who was kneeling on the ground, "Master's move really broke the students!"

His beautiful face revealed a determined expression, "A Cong, pass on this king's oral order, no matter what, Ji Ziqi must be brought back to Xiqiang!"

"Yes!"

-

On Ji Ziqi's side, Uncle Dumb quickly found out the gangsters who came to Beijing to threaten Ji Ziqi and others with cashiers.

As he expected, except for the two people who attacked Du Le who were somewhat famous, the rest were a bunch of low-ranking people from the world.

His skill is average, but because of his tall appearance and well-developed muscles, he can indeed scare many people when he stands there.

So relying on being invited to towns and villages to help collect protection fees and other living expenses.

Since there are no real masters in the Jianghu or well-known sects involved, the whole matter will be much easier to handle.

These low-level people in the rivers and lakes have no home and roots, and eating, drinking, whoring and gambling are their daily necessities.

Du Xi repeated his old plan and induced three of them to owe huge gambling debts.

Those three people relied on their own skills and their appearance could bluff people, and when they disagreed with each other, they wanted to renege on their debts.

However, the people Du Xi sent were all top-notch experts in the Du family's secret guards, not to mention two or three people, even a dozen or so people couldn't get close.

As soon as the master makes a move, he will know if there is one!As soon as the dense long sword was unsheathed and the aura opened up, those people immediately froze.

Du Xi didn't ask anyone to ask those three people who paid for them to go to Beijing to intimidate Ji Ziqi and others.

First of all, as a person in the Jianghu, reputation is the most important. If you break your trust, you don't have to mess around in the Jianghu in the future.

Secondly, since it was ordered in private, he must be careful not to leave any clues. If he is forced to ask, he may scare the snake.

So they sent some other people to hang out with those three people for a few days, offering delicious food and drink every day, coaxing those three people to want to take out their hearts.

Later in the conversation, when they learned that the three owed huge debts, they encouraged them: "The three elder brothers are very famous in the Jianghu, and they must have helped many noble people secretly.

The little brother suggests to the three of you, you can think about whether there is any noble person who has something in your hands, and then ask the noble person to do a favor, and then pay it back when you have money in the future! "

"How can that happen?" One of them objected loudly: "Brother, although I haven't made a name for myself in the arena, I still have to abide by the rules of the arena.

This matter of blackmailing the victim is the most shameless thing in the world!If this signboard is smashed, how will my brothers survive in the future? "

"Brother, don't be upset! I don't mean that, younger brother." The man sent by Du Xi said: "It's not extortion, it's just a temporary loan!
Think about it, the three elder brothers, how the gambling house calculates the money owed, the three elder brothers must be very clear in their hearts.

The interest rate is getting bigger and bigger, even if the three big brothers own all the property, they may not even pay the interest!
And the little brother suggested that the three big brothers are looking for rich and noble people, not ordinary people.

Those hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are huge sums of money to the three big brothers, but to that noble man, it is just money for a trip to a restaurant!
Moreover, the three eldest brothers only borrowed money from the nobleman, and told him that it was only a temporary loan, and set up an IOU to pay it back within three years.

In this way, the three big brothers can pay off their current debts without ruining their reputation.Isn't it killing two birds with one stone? "

When the three of them heard it, they all felt that what they said was reasonable, and they made up their minds in private, and then they came up with the idea of ​​borrowing money from the nobleman.

This noble person who has been in contact with recently is naturally the noble person who seeks them out to frighten people.

I didn't do anything, I went there for two days, and one person took 50 taels of silver.

Such a good thing doesn't come across once a year.

Presumably the noble man in the dark must be a rich master!
Although these people in the Jianghu have some rules in the Jianghu, they have always been used to keeping some handles in their hands, so that if they are silenced one day, they can also use them to save their lives.

So, one late night, when the three of them quietly went to Beijing, the people sent by Du Xi also secretly followed.

-

Ji Ziqi, who left the household department earlier, returned to the garden and recorded the doubtful points in the account book she saw today in the account book she specially made.

She stared at the dense numbers on it, lost in thought.

Everything seems to be uncovered, and it seems that everything has never been discovered.

After all, everything now is speculation, whether it is her or Duan Duxi, there is no sufficient evidence yet.

Master Yang, Qin Niang, there is no clear sign yet, even the identity of the shopkeeper is unknown, and the members of the household department and the magician association who are hiding in the dark have not come out of the water.

Everything has been laid out, just waiting for the net to catch those fat fish.

But Ji Ziqi still couldn't help being a little worried, what if the entire network is empty and all ideas are wrong?
Or, what should you do when the fish in the net is so big that the person who cast the net dare not act rashly?
Ji Ziqi carefully thought over everything about her from joining the Sorcerer Association to returning to Beijing from Southern Qin Dynasty from beginning to end.

Suddenly, she found that she still ignored one thing!

In other words, it's not that I ignored it, but because I was busy with things, I put it aside for the time being.

Liu Tiansheng Master Liu and his underground palace!
If the embezzlement of disaster relief money involves the Criminal Department of the Household Department, the Artisan Association, and Xiqiang, what is the purpose of Xiqiang as the person behind it?
profit from it?silver?There must be reasons for this. The development of the country and the enhancement of its military power cannot be separated from silver.

By the way, develop a group of greedy and selfish high-ranking officials to shake up Li's government!

However, human nature is inherently selfish, corrupt people are like weeds, they can't be eliminated and killed, and there will never be fewer in all dynasties.

And if there are corrupt officials, there will be upright officials. As long as His Majesty the Emperor is wise and implements effective policies, corrupt people will always be able to act in the dark, and cannot become the norm in the country.

Judging from the character of the current emperor, and the character of the next emperor, Li Yuan, if one wants to use this to shake the foundation of the Li country, it is tantamount to talking in a dream!
It's better to find some beauties and tempt the king to come to court every day, which is effective.

With Xiqiang's ambition, how could it be possible to spend so much energy on deployment, just for such a situation with little effect?

Then there must be other means!

If there are ghosts in the Artisan Association, is Mr. Liu one of them?

It is absolutely impossible for Mr. Liu to complete the layout of the underground palace mechanism, arrest so many people, and seal the mouth of his family by himself.

It's just that Mr. Liu refused to explain the reason before his death, so the matter of the underground palace has become an unsolved mystery of the officials.

But what if Mr. Liu is also one of the inner ghosts of Xiqiang, but his mission is another kind?

For example, mutilating people with high talent in spells slows down the development of spells in the country of Li!

Ji Ziqi stood up abruptly.

talent!What is more important than talents for the development of a country?
Relying on the development of alchemy, Li Guo has been brilliant for nearly a hundred years.

As the core of the Shushu world, the Sorcerers Association's influence and role are no less than that of the five imperial courts that hold real power.

It turns out that Xiqiang's ambition is mainly here!

Let Li Guo's spells fight among themselves, let the Li Guo's spells wither, and make Li's spells unable to continue!
Ji Ziqi's heart couldn't help beating.

If Xiqiang had such ambitions long ago, and the promotion of this new system is so smooth now, there must be dangers hidden in it that she has never thought about or foreseen.

Ji Ziqi, who has not been to the Sorcerer's Association for several days, decided to go to the Sorcerer's Association tomorrow to learn about the current situation.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, Ji Ziqi thought it was Jiang Ling, and said casually: "Mother, the door is open, come in."

"Sister, it's Xiaofeng!" Xiaofeng pushed the door open and entered.

"Xiaofeng, why did you come?" Ji Ziqi wondered.

Usually at this time, Xiaofeng basically plays with Xiaoxing or Xiaoyu.

"Second sister went to look for the young master brother after leaving the academy, Xiaoxing fell asleep, and no one played with Xiaofeng!

Xiaofeng also wanted to go to the young master's brother, but his mother refused, saying that it was getting late, so Xiaofeng would go another day. "

Xiaofeng pouted with some dissatisfaction and said, "Eldest sister, will Xiaofeng bother you?"

"No, Eldest Sister just finished her work." Ji Ziqi squeezed Xiaofeng's bulging cheeks, "Wait for Eldest Sister to clean up, then go play with Xiaofeng, okay?"

"Yeah," Xiaofeng nodded excitedly, looking at the sheets of paper full of numbers in Ji Ziqi's hand, and asked curiously, "Sister, what is this?"

Seeing his black and round eyeballs glowing with water, innocent and cute, Ji Ziqi couldn't help teasing him: "Guess what, Xiaofeng?"

Before Xiaofeng went to school, he never forgot with his ears, but after he learned how to read, he never forgot with his photographs.

But as Master Jiang's great-grandson and Ji Ziqi's younger brother, he just doesn't like numbers.

It's not that he is not good at spells, after all, he has the blood of Master Jiang in his body, so the difference is not too bad.

The reason why Xiaofeng doesn't like it is because he thinks numbers are too monotonous and boring. There are only a few numbers from one to nine that come and go, which are far less beautiful than the many and complicated words.

Sure enough, after seeing the numbers on the paper clearly, Xiaofeng wrinkled his nose and said, "It's so ugly!"

Ji Ziqi laughed unceasingly, and pinched his nose affectionately, causing Xiaofeng to protest.

-

In the Magician Association, the atmosphere has quietly changed recently.

The reason originated from the rumors a few days ago, saying that the so-called big battle within the Sorcerers Association was just a play.

In order to make a name for his great-granddaughter Ji Xiaoxue, Master Jiang specially invited Mr. Lu, Mr. Ma, and Mr. Feng, Mr. Ma, to perform this play together.

In the beginning, it was just a private conversation between a few people, but soon it spread more and more widely, and it has become an open secret in the Sorcerer Association.

When Ji Ziqi came here for the last two times, there were already rumors, Gu Fuzi and others who heard the rumors, naturally dared not tell her.

Thinking that rumors stop with the wise, and the clear ones clear themselves!Ji Ziqi has a heavy responsibility now, there is no need to tell her, it will only increase worries.

But now it is intensifying, and it has begun to rise to the point where some people have proposed to cancel the qualifying exam in early September!

As soon as this remark came out, many people echoed it.

Gu Fuzi, Ma Fuzi and others have come forward to clarify, but the things that have always been smeared, the more they explain, the more black they are.

At first Master Ma was thinking of his reputation, so he couldn't let others slander him, so he stood on the same front with Master Gu for a short time.

But after someone raised the matter of dismissing the exam, Master Ma shut up.

He hoped that the exam would continue, so that he would be ashamed of his internal defeat.

He also hopes to succeed in the exam, so that everyone in the world will think that the reason for his defeat in the internal battle back then was not due to his own lack of ability.

However, in just two or three days, more and more voices in the Artisan Association shouted to stop the exam, and everyone who was actively preparing for the exam also began to show negative emotions.

As a result, Gu Fuzi and Lu Fuzi, who thought the matter would calm down automatically, finally realized the seriousness of the situation and reported the matter to the imperial court and Master Jiang.

When Ji Ziqi came, Gu Fuzi had just sent someone to deliver the letter.What she saw was Master Gu's solemn expression.

When she first came in, she had already sensitively noticed that the members of the Magician Association she met looked at her with a bit of contempt and disdain.

Master Gu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her, but he didn't dare to hide anything, and told her the truth.

Ji Ziqi frowned slightly, "Master, what you mean is that in the Wizards Association, the faction that was originally neutral all thought that the last fight was a game to make me famous.

Because he felt cheated, he proposed to cancel the exam. Among the originally opposed parties, many people began to believe this rumor? "

Gu Fu sighed: "Xiaoxue, it's all because of the incompetence of the master. He thought that this matter will be cleared up by itself. As time goes by, this rumor will gradually fade away, and who knows, it has evolved into what it is now."

Ji Ziqi snorted coldly in his heart, how could the other party let the rumors go away because he was scheming with intentions but not intentions?

"Master, this matter has nothing to do with you! I'm afraid that someone deliberately played tricks in the midst of it. We were unprepared and were calculated."

"Someone is playing tricks?" Master Gu was shocked, "Who is it? Xiaoxue, do you have evidence?"

Ji Ziqi had just sorted out this matter yesterday, and it involved so many things that she dared not drag Master Gu into it.

"Master, the students are just guessing. Think about it, Mr. Ma and Mr. Feng, who were most opposed to it, have both accepted the new system.

Those masters and students who remained neutral did not have much opinion on this system. If there were no intentional people spreading rumors, how could there be such rumors?

It stands to reason that it is normal for someone to have doubts in their hearts, and it is not surprising to discuss it with friends in private.

The strange thing is that both the master and the horseman stood up and explained that those rumors not only did not spread, but spread more and more fiercely, making many people believe it to be true.

Most of the neutrals don't like to interact with others, or they are independent, or follow the crowd, and it is always difficult for them to see things that have nothing to do with them.

So this time, it would be strange if no one contributed to it and stirred up dissatisfaction in the hearts of the neutrals. "

"Master understands this point." Master Gu said: "It's just that the top priority now is not to find the person behind the scenes, but to calm down the current incident as soon as possible.

It seems that the September qualification exam is less than a month away. If more than half of the people give up the exam by then, where will the court and the Artisan Association face? "

If the net previously laid can be closed within this month, when the truth comes out, the predicament in front of you will be unsolvable.

Although Ji Ziqi was [-] to [-]% sure that he would be able to close the net in a short period of time, he still didn't dare to gamble on it.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, no one can afford the result!
"Master, the student understands what you mean. The matter started because of the student, and the student will definitely find a way to calm the matter as soon as possible!"

"It's all because Master is useless! Let you suffer this injustice!" Master Gu blamed himself: "Xiaoxue, if you have a countermeasure, just speak out when you need Master, Master will definitely try his best to help you!"

Ji Ziqi thanked: "Master, you don't need to blame yourself! The student thanked you first here."
