Chapter 218 Confidant(1/2)

Additional updates, please give me a monthly ticket

...

Xie Zhixian's eyes flashed, and then he narrowed his eyes slightly and shook his serious gleam. "≤, he nodded to Xie Huaijin with a smile.

"You have to give me some advice on this? My father is such an ignorant person, or do you not believe in being a father?" Xie Zhixian narrowed his eyes at Xie Huaijin.

"No, I, I..." Xie Huaijin's face showed a look of shame, and she said quietly.

When Xie Magistrate Xie saw that Xie Huaijin was embarrassed, he suddenly laughed.

"I know, Xiaotang is too important in your heart." Xie Zhixian's tone did not mean to blame, but instead he was a little joking.

Xie Huaijin's face turned red.

"Forget it, go back and see your mother. You don't have to tell your mother these words. If your mother is not careful, it will be difficult for you to explain to Xiaotang." Seeing Xie Huaijin in such embarrassment, Xie Chao smiled and beat Xie Huaijin down.

When Xie Huaijin left, there was no one else in the room. County Magistrate Xie slowly closed the smile on his face and narrowed his eyes and began to ponder.

"The relative of the Ji family still needs to be made." County Magistrate Xie said to himself.

...

Han Zhen lived in the Ji family, and except for going to the Qingxi Village and the ancestral tomb of the Ji family, he never went out again. Every day he went to the Ji family, he talked with Master Ji Er, Master Ji San, and Ji Xiaotang, or walked on the Ruyi Garden. He seemed to be light and very comfortable.

Han Zhen also met Mrs. Ji and gave her some good supplements as a meeting gift for Mrs. Ji. When she met, Mrs. Ji was my junior gift. He also chatted with Mrs. Ji for a long time.

Old Mrs. Ji didn't like the excitement. After Old Mr. Ji passed away, she rarely saw foreigners. Even if she saw him, she would just exchange a few greetings. But she could talk to Han Zhen very well.

Of course, this is not because the two have similar personalities, or because Mrs. Ji suddenly becomes good at talking, but because Han Zhen is too good at speaking.

Han Zhen actually got along with the old man so well and was very patient.

Ji Xiaotang was present at the time and couldn't help but look at Han Zhen with admiration. She didn't expect that Han Zhen would have such a side.

Afterwards, Old Mrs. Ji praised Han Zhen in front of Mr. Ji and others, saying that this young man was both polite and talented, and was the best man she had ever seen.

Except for the relatives of his parents' family, Mrs. Ji rarely praises others. Even more, there are fewer people who strongly praise someone like this.

On that day, Han Zhen and the Ji family were sitting in the flower hall to enjoy the cool air and chat, when a little girl came to report that a guest was coming in front of her.

"It's Lord Qi Qianhu from the Fucheng."

Qi Younian is here.∏∈,

"This is the one who urged me to come, haha." Han Zhen said with a smile. Qi Younian came to see Han Zhen.

Ji Xiaotang was not surprised at all when he heard this. Han Zhen had a special identity. Even if he went out of Beijing to investigate the secretly, the guards would not relax. As the leader of the Ren'an Prefecture Guard Office, Qi Younian was the young marquis of the Weiwu Hou Mansion. It was reasonable that Qi Younian knew Han Zhen's whereabouts and came to meet with the guards.

Because Qi Younian came to see Han Zhen, Han Zhen sat in the flower hall again and did not intend to move. Master Ji San went to the front in person and welcomed Qi Younian to the flower hall.

Qi Younian entered the flower hall and saw Han Zhen sitting on it. He hurriedly lifted his brocade robe and bowed.

Han Zhen looked at Qi Younian and smiled very kindly. After Qi Younian continued to worship, Han Zhen hurriedly got up, took Qi Younian's hand, and helped Qi Younian up.

"Ayou doesn't have to be too polite. If you haven't seen each other for many days, Ayou seems to have grown taller again." Han Zhen and Qi Younian took their brother to get familiarity and affection for their younger brother.

As the two met, Ji Xiaotang could see that the two were not only very familiar, but also had a close relationship.

No wonder Han Zhen was assassinated in Mujiazhai last time. It was because Qi Younian, who was only a hundred households, brought people to cook.

"The fourth brother is still in style, I miss you very much." Qi Younian also said with a smile.

Han Zhen took Qi Younian to sit down and spoke to Qi Younian with a smile.

"Changning misses you very much. He knows that I will come out of Beijing and asks me if I will pass by Ren An. He also asks me to promise her that even if I don't pass by Ren An, I will go to Ren An to see you for her... Changning also asked me to send you a letter..." Han Zhen said this, with a look of sarcasm on his face, "Ayou, I have been a messenger for you. How should you thank Brother Hui?"

As soon as Han Zhen talked about Changning, Qi Younian's face changed slightly, and he quickly glanced at Ji Xiaotang.

Ji Xiaotang didn't care too much at first, but when he saw Qi Younian's expression, he suddenly wanted to know who Changning was.

"Second brother, don't fool me." Qi Younian did not follow Han Zhen to sit down, but said helplessly, "I am just a martial artist, and I have been away all year round, and I have met Changning... but I have met him when I was young. She is afraid she doesn't know who I am, and she talks about concerns and letters. She must not dare."

"You, you, you are still shy in front of your fourth brother." Han Zhen smiled again, "This time you returned to Beijing, you have met her, and you have a lot of talks. After Changning returned home, he talked about you a lot. Haha, it won't take long to congratulate you for your brother."

"I must never be a joke like the Fourth Brother." Qi Younian said seriously.

Seeing Qi Younian like this, Han Zhen smiled slightly, as if he was saying that the young man was shy and honest, and he spoke in a quarrel, but he put down the topic of Changning for the time being.

Qi Younian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and greeted Mr. Ji and Ji Xiaotang again.

When talking to Ji Xiaotang, Qi Younian was very careful in his tone and expression, and kept secretly looking at Ji Xiaotang's face. "≤,

Everyone gave a brief greeting, and Qi Younian also sat down.

Qi Younian gave Han Zhen a note, he came to pick Han Zhen up, and Han Zhen should return to Beijing.

Han Zhen did not avoid the Ji family, but opened the note in public to watch it. After watching it, Han Zhen frowned slightly, but did not say anything else. When he finished reading the note, he put it away, and there was no obvious change in his expression on his face.

"I originally planned to live for a few more days, but it seems that I can't live there." Han Zhen said slowly.

Although Ji Xiaotang and others were curious, they were not easy to ask. However, Han Zhen did not mean to hide the Ji family.

"There was something wrong in the capital." Han Zhen explained, "There was a big case for those who went to the south to provide disaster relief. These bold borers!"

Han Zhen explained it very simply and did not say it in detail.

However, everyone present was shocked.

There was a big case and a borer to the south. What kind of case could it be? I'm afraid someone really greed for the money for the disaster relief and was accused. This is indeed a big deal, and no wonder that Beijing Zhong asked Han Zhen to go back soon.

"The matter has come out. No matter how urgent it is, I can't set off today. Let's wait for tomorrow, Ayou will take a break, not on this day." Han Zhen said.

Qi Younian naturally agreed.

Everyone talked for a while, and Qi Younian said goodbye first. He did not come alone this time, and he also brought many soldiers. Because Han Zhen could not leave immediately, he wanted to place the soldiers.

"I'll be back later." Qi Younian said before leaving, and then secretly glanced at Ji Xiaotang before leaving hurriedly.

Qi Younian left, and Han Zhen also stood up, but instead of going outside the garden, he walked inside.

"I heard that Mr. Ji has a library, and there are many rare ancient books. I wonder if I can be lucky enough to see you. I have been asking for the book "Scheme of War" for many years. If Mr. Ji has it, I will borrow it to read it." Han Zhen said with a smile. Although he looked at Master Ji Er's words, the light from the corner of his eyes swept towards Ji Xiaotang.

Han Zhen's words mean something, and Ji Xiaotang naturally heard it.

The book of plotting war was long ago given to Qi Younian by Ji Xiaotang. No outsider has ever known about the Ji family's book, and he never told anyone about it when he gave it to Qi Younian.

The only ones who know this book and this are Ji Xiaotang, Master Ji Er, Master Ji San and Qi Younian.

The Ji family would not tell Han Zhen about this, so there was only Qi Younian.

Qi Younian did not hide anything from Han Zhen!

However, was Qi Younian really telling Han Zhen about this?

Ji Xiaotang lowered his eyes slightly, Master Ji Er and Master Ji San accompanied Han Zhen to the library, but Ji Xiaotang stood still.

Han Zhen took a few steps, but Ji Xiaotang didn't follow him, so he stood up and turned around, meaning that Ji Xiaotang would go with him.

Ji Xiaotang lowered his eyes, and seemed to have not seen it at all.

Han Zhen seemed to hesitate for a moment and finally did not speak. Master Ji Er and Master Ji San seemed not to understand what he meant and did not speak.

In the end, it was Mr. Ji Er and Mr. Ji San who accompanied Han Zhen to the library. Ji Xiaotang and others walked far away, and then slowly walked outside Ruyi Garden.

...

Qi Younian returned to Ji Mansion again and met Ji Xiaotang the first time.

"Xiaotang..." Qi Younian spoke to Ji Xiaotang with great caution. "Fourth Brother... Changning..."

Qi Younian wanted to explain to Ji Xiaotang, but Ji Xiaotang didn't ask anything, and his expression was faint. This made Qi Younian feel more uneasy, and he almost didn't know how to say what he wanted to explain.

"Ayou, you don't have to tell me these things." Ji Xiaotang looked at Qi Younian and then turned around. "You and your fourth brother will naturally be closer. You have many people you are close to, so there is no need to tell me all of them."

Qi Younian was a little stunned.

It was Han Zhen’s words that made Ji Xiaotang misunderstand! However, with Ji Xiaotang’s temperament, if it were just those words, it would not be so awkward. Moreover, Ji Xiaotang’s attitude and speaking were vaguely complaining about him.

Is there something he didn't know about?

Qi Younian couldn't understand it.

"Xiaotang, Changning, is not what the fourth brother said. He didn't mention it just now. I don't remember seeing Changning when I returned to Beijing last time... I came and went in a hurry, and I didn't care about anything else except for attending the funeral for my sister." No matter what, Qi Younian still said what he wanted to explain, even if it was a bit abrupt, even if Ji Xiaotang refused to listen to him.

"Ayou, the book I gave you..." Ji Xiaotang was originally looking at Qi Younian, but then he slowly turned around. She didn't ask who it was Changning at all.

"I have always carried the book with me." When Qi Younian saw Ji Xiaotang asking about the book of the plan, he hurriedly reached out to his chest and took out a book. It was the book of the plan that Ji Xiaotang copied for him. "The ancient book should not be carried with me, I have put it up properly. This book has never left me."

Qi Younian said this, almost subconsciously rubbing the cover of the book.

Books are new books, and you can see that they are often read in your hands, but they are well preserved, which shows that people who read books are very careful and cherish them.

"Xiaotang, did I do something wrong?" Qi Younian asked.

"No." Ji Xiaotang thought for a while and replied.

But Ji Xiaotang's expression seemed to be inconsistent with what she said. Qi Younian wanted to ask if it was true, but he didn't ask.

"Ayou, I'll ask you something. If you can say it, I won't blame you." Ji Xiaotang paused for a moment, then lowered his voice and asked.

"What's up?"

"Han Zhen came to Qingyuan last time, did he have a private visit with makeup?"
