The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 423 Mr. Ji 3, please help me save people

Ji Zichu went to see the eldest master, who put him into the study and carefully closed the door.

He turned around with a mysterious look on his face, coaxed his nephew to sit down at the guest table, and then asked, "Did you go to your second brother's yard to see him just now?"

Ji Zichu said: "I just passed by the door and came to see you first. Didn't you say you wanted to see me for something?"

The eldest master said, "Your second brother...he's become even more insane. In just the time since he came back, he's already killed dozens of people in this mansion alone."

Ji Zichu nodded and said, "I heard about it."

However, even though he killed so many slaves and servants, the news that spread outside was because of a witch-like concubine, and people hated and cursed the concubine even more.

Alas, in the end it was that concubine who bore most of the blame.

The master was extremely distressed!

His old face twisted for a moment before he got to the real reason he'd summoned his nephew. He said, "Your eldest brother sent me a secret letter the day before yesterday. I'm the only one in the palace who knows about this. His command of the troops at the border has been extremely unsuccessful this time. No, that's not to say it's not going well, it's going too well. I won't go into the details, but his letter focused on your second brother. His point was that the border troops had long been secretly controlled by your second brother's henchmen, and now your eldest brother has been framed, with only a position but no real power."

Ji Zichu's face grew serious. He said, "I can't believe my second brother has become like this. What's wrong with him? What's he planning? What's he thinking? The day before yesterday, His Majesty summoned me. He promised me an important task, but after he finished speaking, he didn't say anything else. He only told me to go home and be filial to my mother. What's going on in the Great Digging Kingdom now? Could it be that the wars and chaos in the Great Digging Kingdom are also related to my second brother?"

The elder master, faced with his nephew's speculation, refused to offer a single explanation. He hesitated in the end, saying to his nephew, "After you return to your mother, if your father asks you to take up the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, you... just listen to your father and take the position."

Ji Zichu asked in confusion, "Me? To take up the position of deputy commander of the Imperial Guards? Is this what Your Majesty wants?"

The master remained silent.

Ji Zichu left his uncle's study in a daze, and his personal servant led him along. He was lost in thought all the way, and even when the servant reminded him that he had taken the wrong road, he didn't hear. The servant was helpless, because after all, the Jiguo Mansion was their son's home, and there was no place that their son could not go.

The two of them walked along the road and turned wherever there was a bend.

The servant turned around and around in the huge mansion and didn't know where he was. Observing the surroundings, he felt that the environment was becoming more and more quiet. The servants who were busy running around were nowhere to be seen. The servant had to call out to remind his master again with a worried look on his face, but the master was still thinking carefully, as if his eyes, ears, nose and tongue were sealed.

The servant repeatedly looked up at his master, his face full of anxiety.

At this time, when I passed by the wall of a courtyard, I heard two women chatting.

A woman asked, "How long can this fake Miss Shen Wen live after being sent to a place like this?"

Another woman said, "Strange things happen every year, but this year has been the most bizarre in this mansion. You know that incident, right? The Second Young Master was extremely fond of the real Miss Shen, and because the servants didn't take good care of her, he killed them all overnight. I think the reason our Second Young Master kept this fake girl was because he wanted to torture her severely. How do you think he would torture her? Would he cut her into pieces like the legendary lingchi punishment?"

The woman in front said, "Don't talk nonsense. Why are you talking about the death penalty by slicing for no reason? Just thinking about that scene is terrifying."

Their conversation was still going on. Ji Zichu, who was deep in thought outside the wall, was immediately awakened by the three most crucial words "Miss Shen" from their mouths.

Ji Zichu asked the servant, "Where is this? Who lives behind the courtyard walls? Which courtyard's servant is so gossipy?"

The servant scratched his head and said, "Master! I don't know where this place is either. I'm from the Princess's Mansion and I'm not familiar with the Duke Ji's Mansion."

Ji Zichu was too lazy to listen to his nonsense. He walked away and said, "Let's go to that yard and take a look."

The two men had just taken a few steps when they heard two women chattering on the wall exclaiming, "Someone said there's a man hanged at the gate of our yard! Let's go and take a look!"

Such explosive news also scared Ji Zichu and his servant outside the wall. They quickened their pace and trotted to the gate of the courtyard.

The master and servant looked up and saw that, sure enough, a man was hanging by the neck with a belt on the willow tree beside the door.

After Ji Zichu took a closer look at the man's appearance, he thought about it carefully, and his expression changed drastically. "Quick! Get him down and see if he can be saved. He is Tong Xianyu from Big Brother's room."

The servant put Tong Xianyu down from the tree and nervously touched his nose. Just as his finger touched his nose, the man suddenly opened his eyes. The timid servant was so scared that he sat down on the ground, calling for his mother.

Ji Zichu, who was standing beside him, saw that Tong Xianyu had survived so easily. He came closer curiously and asked, "How did you do it? You woke up so quickly?"

Tong Xianyu gave him a look that was as simple as hanging himself and yawning. He waved his hand and said, "Oh, don't mention it!"

Tong Xianyu stood up from the ground and dusted himself off. When he looked towards the gate of the house in front of him, anxiety and helplessness were written all over his face.

Seeing that he didn't answer and just stared at the gate of the yard, Ji Zichu also looked at the yard.

He asked, "What's wrong with this yard? Why are you staring at it?"

The two talkative maids who had just hurried over to watch the fun were now looking at Tong Xianyu nervously and fearfully.

Just now they thought this man was a lecher and scolded this Fairy Princess Yutong.

Tong Xianyu looked at the two maids who were acting suspiciously, and blamed them for all the anger she had just suffered.

Tong Xianyu pointed at them and said fiercely, "What are you looking at? It's all your fault, you two noisy guys. Just now in Sister Shen's room, you were so arrogant. If you hadn't been making such a fuss, I would have secretly..."

Having said that, he stopped talking abruptly.

What is he saving?

He stole Sister Shen out and helped her escape.

But this matter should not be blamed on these two maids. The key is that arrogant and powerful female immortal.

Do not!

He should call her a female devil!

The female devil Yuchi Lian.

He had been secretly trying to find out about Sister Shen in this house. After all, Sister Shen was a little fox raised by the ancestor, so he knew very well who was torturing her and what kind of suffering she was enduring.

Tong Xianyu bit her lip, looking unwilling.

Sister Shen was so pitiful. Now there was another faker next to that dead man Chu Yanqiu. He was afraid that the faker would cause trouble. If the substitute was determined to replace Sister Shen and become the real one, he might even kill the real one.

When he thought of this, he couldn't hold back any longer, and his beautiful, star-like eyes turned around.

The two maids who were scolded by him, who were already huddled together trembling, huddled together even more.

But even so, they still can't change their habit of talking too much.

One of the tall, thin maids said, "It's not all our fault! You're a grown man, and you just ran into our girl's room without even saying hello. Anyone would think you were a pervert."

Another servant girl with a bulbous nose chimed in, "Yes, yes, this... it's unreasonable for you to blame us. We were just trying to scare you, saying we were going to the outer courtyard to get the servants to arrest you, but we didn't go. Who would have known that in the blink of an eye, you'd be hung from a tree by someone? We weren't the ones who made you suffer like this."

Tong Xianyu glared at them and couldn't help but curse, "Get out!"

When the two girls heard that they were released and no further action would be taken, they immediately hurried away.

Unexpectedly, after just two steps, Princess Tong called him back and said, "I'm telling you, this is Sister Shen, whom I hold dear to my heart. If I find out that you're not serving her well, or that you're mistreating her, I'll definitely skin you alive."

The two maids nodded repeatedly and said, "I know, I know! I wouldn't dare!"

Only then did Tong Xianyu let them go.

Ji Zichu's ears seemed to hear only what he wanted to hear. He didn't quite understand their conversation. Only the three words "Sister Shen" reminded him of someone in his heart.

Ji Zichu pointed at the courtyard and asked his servant, "Who is in here? Which Sister Shen is he talking about? Is it..."

Is it her?

he wanted to know.

The servant was confused. He had no way to answer and he didn't know either.

Seeing that the servant didn't answer, Ji Zichu anxiously asked Tong Xianyu, "Who is this Sister Shen you're talking about? Is it Shen what? Her name is Shen what?"

Tong Xianyu's originally helpless mood became lively again.

Right!

How could he forget?

Isn’t the third young master of the Ji family in front of him a brother with the same identity and status as Chu Yanqiu?

His eyes sparkled as he spoke, "Third Young Master! I'm glad it's you, I'm glad you're here. Please stop your unscrupulous brother from doing such evil things. He abandoned Sister Shen Wen to this deserted courtyard. He wants her to be tortured to death without food or water."

Ji Zichu stared with his big eyes, and finally heard the name he was thinking of.

The sudden explosion of news made him emotional. He suddenly grabbed Tong Xianyu's shoulders with both hands. As if to confirm the news in his heart, he asked: "Is the Shen Wen you are talking about the person I know? Is it the Seventeenth Young Master of the Shen family?"

Tong Xianyu sighed heavily and said, "Yes! It's her! I knew that Third Master Ji also sympathized with Sister Shen's plight. Third Master Ji... I beg you, please help me rescue Sister Shen. Aren't you Chu Yanqiu's most valued brother? In this Ji Mansion, you are the only one who can sway Chu Yanqiu's decision. How about this... just force your way in, rescue Sister Shen and hide her first, okay?"

Ji Zichu no longer listened to Tong Xianyu's excessive chatter. He walked quickly towards the yard. He first wanted to confirm whether it was the person he had been thinking about.
