Chapter 1848 Extra Story: Love (29)

"It's the topographic map of the Gu doctor clan." Hongdou didn't deny it.

"How did you get it?"

"I also followed Uncle Qinglian to Shengwu Village, and I overheard it from Uncle Cheng when chatting with Uncle Cheng. It turned out that not long after Qiqi disappeared, my father had already suspected that he was in the Gu doctor family, and he has been killing him for the past two years. People are looking for the whereabouts of the Gu doctor family. In fact, Uncle Cheng just got this topographic map, and I need it urgently, so I took it here first."

When Hongdou said the last sentence, she was a little guilty, especially when the man looked at her with a half-smile, the guilt was even heavier.

I always feel that Xiao Qi's eyes are like her father's, very penetrating, and can see through what kind of plans she is planning.

"Brother Qi, just help me, I don't know who else I can turn to for help except you."

Yan Rongjin raised the sheepskin roll in his hand, "You really can only ask me for help. If you turn around and look for your Uncle Qinglian and Uncle Cheng, I'm afraid you will be taken back. That's why you traveled thousands of miles and returned to Come to the capital."

There was a hint of teasing helplessness in the man's tone.

Hongdou bent her eyes and showed a flattering smile, "I knew Brother Xiaoqi would definitely help me. Thank you Hongdou here, if brother Xiaoqi wants Hongdou to help in the future, I will definitely accept it!"

Staring quietly at the girl for a moment, Yan Rongjin smiled, "You said this, don't forget."

"I will never forget."

At this time, Uncle Peng looked at the sky and reminded, "Your Majesty, the time has come."

"You have something to do, so go ahead and do it first, I'll wait here." Worrying that she would delay their business, Hong Dou hurriedly said.

Yan Rongjin smiled, "It's not a big deal. The members of the Ji clan who were punished earlier will be sent into exile today.

I need to go to the side to supervise, and I will be back soon. "

"A member of the Ji clan?" Hong Dou frowned.

On the way to the capital, she had already heard what happened in Dongyue during this period.

The Ji family was sentenced to nine clans sitting together because of the crime.

It's just that this is a matter of Dongyue, and Hongdou will not comment.

"Why don't you go and see with me."

Hongdou was surprised, "Me?"

...

Caishikou in the capital city.

The crowds of people blocking the entrance to watch were hustle and bustle.

In the central open space, hundreds of people were kneeling.

These are all offshoots of the Ji clan, among them are old men who are aging and babies who are waiting to be fed.

Everyone was dressed in rags and rickets, their expressions were numb, and their eyes were empty and hopeless.

Among the crowd of onlookers, the two young men kept pushing forward, looking at the person kneeling in the middle of the field, their eyes were red with anxiety and grief.

"Everything is crowded, back off!" The crowd kept pushing and colliding with the erected security fence, which was crumbling. Officers and soldiers rushed forward and shouted to maintain order.

The two young men were also pushed to the back by the officers and soldiers, and dared not speak out.

In this situation, they dare not say anything.

The imperial power is supreme.

"Ah Cheng, what should we do? We really can't help at all?" Quan Zhengchu gritted his teeth and held back tears as he stared at a certain figure in the venue.

"Ji Mansion has committed such a big crime, the nobles of the aristocratic family dare not even mention their names. What can we do with you and me?" Zhuo Cheng choked up.

"But they're just offshoots—"

"The emperor personally ordered that the nine clans be seated!"

The two fell silent. In fact, both of them knew well that what they said and what they did would be futile.

No one dared to take care of the affairs of the Ji Mansion, and there was no way to ask for help.
