Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 119 Your wife I will raise

If we're talking about the largest and most magnificent mansion in Xinzheng City, then it's undoubtedly the General's Mansion.

Even the Zhang family, which had served as prime ministers of Han for five generations, could not match this.

After all, the Zhang family were all scholars and civil officials, so they had some reservations and wouldn't be as arrogant as Ji Wuye.

"The Grand General, the grandson of Han Fei and Prime Minister Zhang, Lord Changxin, and the Left Sima have all left the Zilan Pavilion."

A tall, slender figure in black bowed respectfully to Ji Wuye and reported the news.

"Our Ninth Young Master is rather restless. It's one thing to help Zhang Kaidi interfere in the military pay case, but he also wants to establish a relationship with Lord Changxin. And Liu Yi, is he uncomfortable serving under this general by fawning over Lord Changxin like this...?"

Ji Wuye sat astride a heavily crafted gold and iron chair with an imposing air, his bright red cloak billowing out, revealing his powerful and unrestrained aura.

"I can't afford to offend Lord Changxin, but what about Han Fei and Liu Yi..."

Ji Wuye chuckled coldly, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

"Mo Ya, bring Liu Yi to see me. As for Han Fei... you know what to do!"

……

Xinzheng, post station.

Ying Jing gently stroked a blood-red gemstone in his hand; it was the Fire Rain Agate he had obtained from Nong Yu.

On the table in front of him were intelligence from the Luo Net concerning the former Huoyu Manor and Liu Yi.

Even with memories of his past life, Ying Jing would usually use the Net to verify the information as a precaution.

"The destruction of Huoyu Manor in the past, when Han and Chu attacked Baiyue, is quite fitting."

"But something seems off about Liu Yi."

Ying Jing frowned slightly. Since he took over Luo Wang, there were naturally spies lurking in Liu Yi's mansion.

However, according to the intelligence provided by the spy, Liu Yi has never slept with his wife in all these years.

It should even be said that Liu Yi basically never stayed at home at night!

"Master, the Liu Yi you were paying attention to is gone..."

Yan Lingji walked gracefully into the room, speaking softly.

"What's missing?"

Ignoring the fragrance emanating from Yan Lingji, Ying Jing was stunned by her words.

Yan Lingji suddenly squeezed into Ying Jing's arms, wrapping her two slender arms around his neck: "It's just that Liu Yi is gone. The news just came in, and he died a terrible death."

Ying Jing did not stay at the post station all the time, so he had instructed Luo Wang to report any less important intelligence to Yan Ling Ji, who would then relay it to him.

But he didn't expect that the first message Yan Lingji conveyed would be so explosive.

Ying Jing was not surprised by Liu Yi's death, but was it a bit too early for him to die at this time?

"They left from Ji Wuye's place and died on their way back. Would you like to go and see them, Master?"

Yan Lingji whispered in his ear.

"You stay at the inn, and let the Corpse-Driving Demon come with me."

Ying Jing pondered for a moment before speaking.

The few Baiyue subordinates that Yan Lingji recruited can still be of some use in special circumstances.

The Corpse-Driving Demon possesses the extraordinary art of the Baiyue people, capable of making the dead speak.

Liu Yicai has only been dead for a short time. If we could get him to talk, things would probably be much simpler.

Although Liu Yi was somewhat obsequious, he had indeed been serving Ying Jing wholeheartedly during this period.

We still need to help Jing Dashan find the murderer and, while we're at it, take care of his family members.

If any treasure has been left behind, it must be protected for his family and relatives...
