Right now, they knew the law was against them, so the more they thought about it, the more guilty they became.
"Lord Ji."
"Let them kneel and ignore them before tomorrow evening. Let the people see and let the people guess why the court didn't do anything, and why these people are admitting their wrongs so that they don't waste their breath."
"Brothers, have you suffered enough? Send the order to have another meal in the morning. Since you've been at Heaven's End City for so long, everyone hasn't had a good meal yet. Also, send people to secretly watch over them. Don't let them be silenced in front of Qin Manor!"
"Yes sir!"
After the others left, Ji Quan raised his head from in front of the table. He did not sleep the whole night. He walked to the window to see that it was already dawn. A new day had begun.
After some thought, he straightened his clothes and walked towards the courtyard where Qin Siyu and her son lived.
Was she still angry? In the past, when she didn't sleep at night, she would cook a bowl of porridge for herself. But now, she ignored it … Sigh ~
Qin Siyu woke up early, but actually, she didn't sleep either. After thinking about it all night, she seemed to have understood something, which made her want to ignore Ji Quan even more.
The door opened and Ji Quan walked in softly: "Siyu."
"What are you doing here? Do you want to lock me up as well?"
"…"
"Siyu, you are a man of justice. I will do this …"
"Stop talking, I'm just a girl. I don't know what justice is. Lord Ji, you can go!"
If I don't piss you off, others will keep an eye on the Ji manor. It's impossible for our people to do anything, but do you know that all of the brothers I sent to the Duwei Restaurant have gone missing, and the safest place to do so is to drive you back? Why don't you understand? "
"…"
Didn't she understand?
That's why she didn't tell her family that Ji Quan had returned home. After returning home, she said that there was nothing left to eat at home, so she took her children to her parents' home. That was why she was humiliated by the first wife …
It was fine for the mother and son pair to be sent to the side yard, but for their mother to be humiliated, that was not important. What was important was that this man actually said that there was someone in his heart.
Therefore, no matter what Ji Quan said, she pretended not to hear him. She combed her hair and prepared to go see her son. After the little guy had weaned, he didn't like to live with her.
Ji Quan's expression changed. She was still ignoring him. How long was she going to be angry?
When she walked past him, she extended her arm to hug him. "Don't be angry, it's all my fault … "Father is hiding in the cellar. I don't know if anything will happen to him from yesterday until now …"
He had only wanted to talk about proper matters, but now, with a beauty in his arms, his thoughts moved.
"Ji Quan ~ Let go …"
Let go, how could he let go? After three years of yearning, how could he let go just like that?
"Ugh ~"
"..."
Two hours later, Lucky arrived with a head of messy hair. As soon as he entered the room, he saw his mother and father together. His mother was currently dressing up while his father was sleeping on the bed …
"Mother ~"
"Ah!" Qin Siyu was shocked. She glared at the man on the bed. "Damn it!
She blushed and quickened the pace of her dressing.
"Lucky, don't disturb your dad!"
"Mother, your face is so red. What happened to your neck? Did father hit you?" Mother, don't be afraid! Lucky is protecting you! "
Hearing her son's words, Qin Siyu's face became so red that it seemed as if blood would drip out at any moment. She quickly dragged her son out.
But the little guy was staring at his father, who was staring at him with a strange expression on his face.
Ji Quan coughed lightly. After hiding his embarrassment for a while, he spoke to his son with the tone of an adult:
"Lucky, you're already an adult. Go out and lead a team to escort you and your mother home. Prepare a meal for grandfather!"
Lucky heard that he had a quest?
Ji Quan's words directly distracted him from his thoughts. He immediately forgot about what he wanted to do to avenge his mother just now. Now that he had something important to do, he had to do it first! Therefore, he turned to Qin Siyu and said:
"Mother, let's get down to business first. I miss grandfather …"
Qin Siyu blushed as she turned around and continued dressing. She pulled Lucky out of the door as Ji Quan's eyes stared at her playfully. It was just like how a wolf stared at its prey all those years ago …
If she dared to resist, the consequences would be … There was no end to it.
"Damn it, he actually hid father in the cellar. Doesn't he know that father's legs are inconvenient for him?"
He kept complaining as he combed Lucky's hair, but he no longer hated him that much.
In contrast, she and Lucky were "treated" much better.
Seeing the two of them leave, a smile appeared on Ji Quan's face. She was still the same as she was many years ago, unable to resist her 'masculinity'. Satisfied, she closed her eyes to catch up on her sleep.
However, he was woken up not long after he had fallen asleep, because the guards had come to report that the Emperor's Heaven's End City had arrived. They had even fought last night.
"Quick, follow me to pick up the carriage!"
"Lord Ji, there's no need to go. The emperor has already left. He said that he came here today and that the empress has also come …"
The guard didn't know if he was here or if he wasn't.
"Oh?" Ji Quan stopped dressing himself. The emperor had come but had left. Could it be that there was something big going on in the capital?
"What else did the Emperor say?"
"The emperor said that the eighteenth of next month is his joyous day. He told you to bring your family and children to celebrate in the capital, and even the Old Master has to take them. This is the letter the emperor asked this lowly one to hand over to you!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
It turned out to be the management method and restructuring method of the new city. This was something that was written by the Imperial Advisor, he had placed everything that belonged to Dongfang Ning in a secret place, and it was more important than a family heirloom.
He watched with relish while the outside world was in an uproar. However, this time it wasn't a fight or anything like that, but all sorts of discussions.
"Isn't that the Acting City Lord? Why is he kneeling here? And that, that … Oh my god, what's going on? "
These officials actually weren't that bad. They were just a bit greedy. At this point, even if they were seen by the crowd they would still blush. Sooner or later, their matter would be made public …
Everyone's hearts were filled with extreme regret. And General Wang had told them just now that the person who had saved their lives was unexpectedly His Majesty. Now, everyone was kneeling down, not daring to move at all.
What he owed was not only a bad reputation, but also a reputation that could make a country fall. Even this wretched life of his had been pulled back from the gates of hell by the emperor.
"Fellow villagers, we have let you down. The chaos in Heaven's End City is our fault, wuu … The more we scold, the better off we are!
