Not long after he walked out of Old Duke Huan's yard, Huan Ji grabbed Cao Kun's arm and pulled him to a secluded place.

"Brother Qu Fei, I didn't realize that you are so good at lying!"

"Brother Zirang, don't be angry. I was just joking with you..."

Huan Ji was very grateful to Cao Kun in his heart, but when he thought of the sullen look this guy had holding Jiao Jiao before, he couldn't control his fists.

Cao Kun was extremely alert and took action in time to resolve this move.

"Good work!" Huan Ji praised.

The two of them had not practiced martial arts together for a long time, and their emotions were suddenly aroused.

In the blink of an eye, there were already more than a dozen moves, and Huan Ji was secretly surprised.

Cao Kun's martial arts is very good. In addition, his height and strength are very fierce, and it is difficult for ordinary people to resist.

But from another perspective, his stature is also his shortcoming. He always seems to be inflexible when using his hands. Over time, people will always find flaws.

Because of this, when the two of them competed in martial arts in the past, he was always the winner.

But today, Cao Kun seems to have changed. He is stronger than before, and his flexibility has also been greatly improved.

Compared with a few years ago, his martial arts has obviously reached a higher level.

After another dozen moves, the two exchanged palms and each took three or four steps back.

Huan Ji raised his thumb and said, "Brother Qufei has made rapid progress in martial arts in the past few years, which is really gratifying!"

Cao Kun said: "Following Lord Jiu, of course you can't just be good at deceiving others!"

The two of them laughed in unison.

Huan Ji clasped his fists and said, "Thanks to Brother Qufei for helping me during this time. I'd like to thank you."

Cao Kun walked up to him and said with a smile: "Brother Zirang is out of town. If Xiaojiu hadn't taken him in, I wouldn't have known where to stay."

The reason why he fled the capital was mentioned in the letters of Xiao Bi and Hua Xiaohan, and Huan Ji couldn't help but sigh secretly.

This guy once was severely beaten by Xiao Jiu because he wanted to take the beautiful girl Yin as his concubine.

Everyone who knew the inside story thought that he was a romantic man who would have many wives and concubines in the future.

I didn't expect that he would be so serious and stubborn about marrying a wife.

Huanji heard Hua Xiaohan say that Xiao Chan was also a very beautiful girl, and her appearance alone was not inferior to that of Miss Yin.

In addition, she is also His Majesty the Emperor's sister-in-law, so the Cao family will not be at a disadvantage if they marry her.

But Cao Kun would rather flee the capital and give up his bright future than accept his parents' arrangements. Not everyone has such courage.

I really underestimated him before!

Huan Ji patted Cao Kun on the shoulder: "We are all good brothers, so we won't say these polite words.

Let’s hurry up and get out of the city before it gets dark!”

※※※※

The suburbs of Jinguo's capital city.

A thin black figure took advantage of the night to sneak into an inconspicuous small farm.

There were faint sounds of dogs barking, and orange lights lit up in the main room.

The man knocked lightly on the door.

Soon the door opened, and he ducked in.

After seeing clearly the person sitting on the chair, he immediately clasped his fists and saluted: "I see you, Princess."

The princess he was talking about was none other than Xiao Bi, who went to Wei Jing to attend Xiao Xuan's wedding not long ago.

"Sister Qi, sit down and talk." She pointed to the chair next to her.

"Thank you, Princess." Qi Mei sat down and said with a smile, "I thought you would arrive in a few days."

Xiao Bi curled her lips.

Not to mention Qimei, she herself never thought that she would not be able to go to Wei Jing this time, but instead come to the capital of Jin Kingdom.

"What's the situation at Ji Fengzhuo's side now? When is the enthronement ceremony scheduled?"

Qi Mei said: "The enthronement ceremony is scheduled for three days later, when Ji Fengzhuo arrived in the capital of Jin Kingdom the day before yesterday.

The second young master did not accompany him and set off directly from Jianning County to Ruoshui City, but Ji Xinyuan secretly followed him."

Xiao Bi said coldly: "If you do something you know you can't do, some people may praise you for your bravery, but I, the princess, want to give Ji Fengzhuo two words - stupid!"

Wang Jue can't arouse Ayu's interest, so he can just hook up with his daughter?"

Qi Mei echoed: "Ji Fengzhuo has been fighting with others every day in order to regain the country.

He has long been accustomed to playing tricks, and some things are not as simple as they appear on the surface."

Xiao Bi raised her eyebrows: "Did you discover something else?"

Qi Mei smiled and said: "The first emperor of Qing De was the only one who favored the Queen of Chu. In recent years, Ji Fengzhuo had only one woman, Lian, by her side. Even though she only had two daughters, she never took any concubines.

So everyone thought that father and son were the same people, so there was a saying that the second young master would be his son-in-law and even inherit the country of Jin."

"Oh?" Xiao Bi narrowed her eyes: "You mean, Ji Fengzhuo's devotion to the Lian family is just an illusion?"

Qi Mei nodded: "The princess's guess was good. After her subordinates discovered the clue, they followed one of Ji Fengzhuo's secret guards to an ordinary house.

There lived a mother and son in that place, the mother was about twenty years old and the son had just turned two years old."

Xiao Bi sneered and said: "What a great man who hides in the city! Ji Fengzhuo lived a useless life, but such a man is the most hateful!

Lian's father saved his life and supported him for nearly twenty years, and he had a high prestige in the army.

Although General Lian has passed away for more than two years, the respect for Lian from his generals is still there.

Ji Fengzhuo kept asking Ayu to be the commander-in-chief of his army, clearly to weaken the power of the Lian family.

To put it bluntly, even if Ayu agrees to marry Ji Xinyuan, it will only temporarily stabilize his military morale.

Once he secures the throne, who knows what he will do that is worse than a pig or a dog."

Qi Mei glanced at her cautiously: "What is the princess planning to do?"

Xiao Bi said with a smile: "The new emperor of Jin Kingdom has ascended the throne. As the lord of Ruoshui City, I, the princess, must of course go to congratulate him in person.

Speaking of which, he has quite a reputation. I am almost arriving in Wei Jing. When I heard about this, I rushed back in a hurry, and even my fifth brother didn’t even drink the wedding wine!"

Qi Mei grinned.

Although he didn't know how the princess was going to "congratulate" him, he was sure that Ji Fengzhao must be miserable...

Xiao Bi said again: "Seventh sister, I will give you another task."

"Princess, please speak."

"Ji Fengzhuo will ascend the throne in three days, then I will go to the Jinguo Palace as the Lord of Ruoshui City the next day.

Before I enter the palace, you send someone to tie up the mother and son."

"Is it really tied up?" Qi Mei asked.

He has been a scout for so many years and has never done anything like kidnapping people, but he can kidnap women and children...

"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Bi rolled her eyes at him: "I asked you to kidnap people, but I didn't ask you to harm them.

Just give me the right words, if you can't do it I'll let someone else do it."

Qi Mei scratched his head: "It's not difficult to kidnap someone, but I'm worried about your safety.
