Hidden in the court

Chapter 128: Fellow Villagers Meet Again

As expected, Wang was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing his name, but her expression quickly returned to normal and she smiled and nodded to Ji Zangyin.

Ji Zangyin looked at Wang's reaction and sneered in his heart. He knew it was a problem with his name, but what could he do? The name given to him by his father was the hope he had for him. This name made him secretly happy but also distressed.

Ji Zangyin also followed the etiquette of a younger generation and called his aunt like his elder brother. He deliberately acted very respectful, which made Wang feel a little relieved.

"Great, you are so sensible at such a young age, and you are very friendly and respectful to your brothers." Wang praised.

Ji Mingshang laughed and said nothing, but stuffed a steamed bun into Luo Lin's mouth. He didn't seem to care about Ji Zangyin's performance, but only focused on his family.

"How's my sister-in-law?" Ji Zangyin, who had come to his senses, also greeted Rowling politely.

"Don't talk while eating, just eat your food!" Ji Mingshang patted his head jokingly.

Luo Lin rolled her eyes at Ji Mingshang and said, "I'm asking you, not you!" Then she smiled at Ji Zangyin.

Ji Mingshang immediately quit and complained aggrievedly: "So love will disappear, right?"

This naturally earned another roll of the eyes from Rowling.

Wang spoke up and stopped the two from making any more noise.

"Okay, stop joking and eat. After you finish eating, think about how to deal with your father-in-law."

Halfway through his meal, he heard the sound of horse hooves mixed with the sound of wheels outside. Ji Mingshang immediately realized that it was his father-in-law who had returned.

He looked around and his eyes were fixed on Ji Zangyin next to him.

"Brother, why are you looking at me?"

"Brother, come and change positions."

At this time, everyone was sitting in front of a small square table. Ji Mingshang was sitting next to Luo Lin, and Ji Zangyin and Luo Lin were facing each other. If the father-in-law came in and saw these seats, he might whip them again.

Poor Ji Zangyin didn't know what was going on. He just touched his head in confusion and asked, "Why?"

This really made Ji Mingshang anxious, "Why so many whys? Just do it when I ask you to. Just think of it as helping your brother."

Having said that, without giving him a chance to refuse, he hugged Ji Zangyin and pushed him onto his bench.

Rowling knew why and couldn't help but snicker.

Just when Ji Zangyin was confused, the angry Luo Wei also came in, holding the familiar whip in his hand. He had already learned about the situation from his subordinates, and Ji Jun came in just as he left.

If the court meeting had not been held today, who knows what tricks this little bastard Ji Mingshang would get up to.

Seeing Ji Mingshang sitting opposite his daughter, eating obediently with his bowl in hand, and his wife also present, his furious mood eased a little, but he still growled.

"Jijun kid!"

Ji Mingshang immediately put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up, and at the same time grabbed Ji Zangyin who was standing beside him, bent down and bowed, smiling flatteringly.

"Father-in-law, let me introduce you to my foolish brother. I am eight years old this year, Ji Chu, Ji Zang Yin. I was born in the northeast by the King of Jin. We have been separated by thousands of miles since childhood and have never met. A few days ago, the Crown Prince and the Princess went to celebrate the King of Jin's birthday, and he followed them all the way to the capital. My little brother, this is the Prime Minister, call him!"

Ji Zangyin was completely confused as he was picked up by his eldest brother and looked at the angry middle-aged man in front of him.

It took him a long time to react, "Junior Ji Zangyin, greets the Prime Minister."

Lowe's brain was so slow to react that he even forgot to be angry.

"Finished?"

"That's not all. My nephew will be going to Lujiang soon, and there is no one I can trust in your mansion, so I have an unreasonable request. First, I want to bring him to meet you, and second, I want to entrust him to the prime minister's mansion."

Wang didn't expect him to say this and couldn't help but worry. This seemed like a fabricated excuse to divert Lowe's anger.

Even Rowling was surprised, but Lowe started laughing, but this laugh looked a little creepy.

"Okay, as long as it's not you, I welcome it. Keep the person here and go on with your work."

"Thank you, Prime Minister! Brother, take care of yourself and wait for me to come back."

Ji Mingshang didn't hesitate at all. He let go of Ji Zangyin's hand, jumped up and climbed over the wall.

Only Ji Zangyin was left there at a loss, while his old mother Wang and Luo Lin also looked at each other in silence.

On the contrary, Luo Wei looked calm, not at all surprised, "Someone, prepare a room for the young master."

Then he turned to Ji Zangyin and whispered softly, "From today on, you will play with your sister-in-law and wait for your elder brother together, okay?"

The tone was so gentle that Rowling's jaw dropped.

"Thank you, Prime Minister."

Although Ji Zangyin hadn't reacted yet, he still replied politely.

Lowe nodded approvingly, "Well, what a good kid, much better than your brother."

Ignoring the messy Ji Zangyin, Ji Mingshang was already rushing home.

Dashan also prepared the horses, settled his daughter, and waited at the door.

It was not for any other reason, but because his cheap godfather sent him another mission a few days ago, which was related to Lujiang Zhou family. Luo Wei also knew it, which was why he cooperated so well just now.

Ji Mingshang galloped on his horse while thinking about this mission.

The Lujiang Zhou family is undoubtedly a prominent family. They have extensive roots and influence in Lujiang, and can be said to have absolute power over the local area.

Thinking of this, Ji Mingshang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sneer: "Which family is not like this?"

However, the situation was different now. Whether in the North or Liangwu, most of the aristocratic families had been wiped out, leaving only the Zhou family of Lujiang.

"It's true that nine out of ten noble families have fallen, leaving me as the only immortal bird!"

Ji Mingshang was riding a horse, followed by Dashan who was also riding a horse. The two of them galloped towards Lujiang like lightning.

The two riders were moving at an incredibly fast speed, like two black whirlwinds, and they arrived at Qing'an City at sunset.

After entering the city, Ji Mingshang and Dashan began to look for a place to stay.

Finally, they stopped at an inn. Ji Mingshang handed the horse to the waiter to take care of, and then walked into the inn with Dashan.

Coincidentally, Ji Mingshang saw a familiar figure in the inn, and that figure happened to look over here.

"Fellow!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Ji Mingshang was not surprised at all. He turned around and saw his fellow villager, Tan Yuewan, whom he had not seen for a long time.

"My friend, it really is you!"

Ji Mingshang also greeted him with a smile, and after seeing Ji Mingshang, "Tan Yuewan's" mind gradually became active.

The important plot is finally about to begin...
