"You are talking nonsense. These things have nothing to do with me! They are all caused by the greed of your Ji family!" Kou Peilin argued.

Ji Xiang ignored him, "The prince was furious and held the Ji family accountable. The Ji family were sent to prison and all their property was confiscated!" Ji Xiang said every word, heartbreakingly, "Kou Peilin, the prince never intended to marry me as his concubine, and you also have no intention of marrying me as his concubine. You have never been kind to my father! All the schemes you and the prince have made are the property of my Ji family and the wealth accumulated by my Ji family for more than three hundred years!" He said and gave Kou Peilin another slap in the face.

Kou Peilin suddenly shrank and curled up into a ball in pain.

Kou Peilin gritted his teeth: "Ji Ruian is overestimating his abilities. Anyone's daughter can be the princess?! As a merchant, he shouldn't covet the position of the princess!"

"Then you still encourage him to overestimate his capabilities?!" Jixiang slapped Kou Peilin in the face, "We must settle this account tonight!"

Tian Muhuan on the tree waved his auspicious hand, and Kou Peilin on the ground stopped moving, lying motionless on the ground like a piece of mud.

Ji Xiang stood up, looked at the wailing guards underground, turned around and disappeared into the night.

Tian Muhuan immediately jumped down from the tree and went to chase Jixiang, but found that he could not find the direction in which Jixiang left. She suddenly disappeared without a trace like a shadow.

There was a sound of footsteps, and just as Tian Muhuan was about to escape, Guard Li was already in front of him.

Guard Li wanted to ask a few questions, but when he saw it was the second prince, he quickly bowed and saluted: "Li Tian pays homage to the second prince."

Tian Muhuan: "Why is Guard Li here?"

Guard Li wanted to ask Tian Muhuan if he had seen the princess, but when he said it, he immediately changed his words: "Someone broke into Ji's house at night, and my subordinates chased him here. Did the second prince see anyone suspicious passing by? ?”

Tian Muhuan shook his head curiously, "I've never seen anyone before. Who dares to break into the place guarded by Guard Li at night? Can Guard Li see that person clearly?"

Guard Li shook his head: "I will continue to search, please leave!" As he said this, he clasped his fists at Tian Muhuan, turned around and ran away.

Tian Muhuan watched Guard Li leave with a more probing look in his eyes.

The next day, there were rumors in the capital early in the morning that something big happened at the residence of Kou Peilin, the Minister of War. Not only did everything in the house disappear overnight, but the Minister of War was so angry that he became bedridden. However, the imperial doctor also changed After four or five treatments, the cause of his illness was still not found.

When Erya told Jixiang this, Jixiang was eating his meal and simply said "hmm" and didn't ask any more questions.

Erya was curious: "Miss, isn't Lord Kou avenged by the young lady's family because he harmed her?"

Ji Xiang: "I can't tell, this person has done a lot of bad things, so he will be unlucky."

Guard Li on the side looked at Ji Xiang's face and was very surprised to see that there was no change on her face at all. What happened to the Kou Mansion last night was obviously the princess' fault, but how did she leave under his nose?

Li Weiwei couldn't figure it out. In order to protect the princess, he couldn't close his eyes for twelve hours every day, worried that something would happen to the princess.

But last night he found out that the princess had gone out, and when he rushed to the Kou Mansion, he saw with his own eyes that his princess beat the guards of the Kou Mansion to a pulp. He wanted to go up to help, but the princess disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When he saw her again, she was already in the yard of his home.

Their princess is a bit like a fairy, she can become invisible.

Just as Guard Li was thinking about it, Xiong Er quickly walked in: "Miss, have you heard about the Kou Mansion?"

Jixiang glanced at Erya: "Erya just told me. Have you eaten? If not, sit down and eat together."

Xiong Er: "I've already eaten. Miss, while something happens to Kou Peilin, I wonder if we..."

Ji Xiang signaled Xiong Er not to continue, "I will take care of the rest. You ask Xie Dongnan to find a way. Our Xuanyi Pavilion must open as soon as possible."

Xiong Er: "Isn't the house in Xuanyi Pavilion still unfinished?"

Jixiang: "This is Xie Dongnan's matter, he must resolve it in the next two days!"

"Yes." Just as Xiong Er was about to leave, Zaohua came in happily.

Zaohua said, "Sister, Xiao Xie is here and says that Yu Qingkui wants to rent a house to us again."

Ji Xiang smiled: "Let's go and have a look. He wants to rent it this time, but we won't rent it again."

Xiong Er and Li Weiwei were stunned. Just now they clearly said that they wanted Xie Dongnan to solve the house problem immediately. Why did they say no again?

The two of them followed out in confusion.

Zaohua walked and asked, "The house is so tidied up, and you don't want it anymore?"

Xiong Er also followed up: "Yes, Xie Dongnan said that he spent a lot of money. If he didn't rent it, wouldn't it be an advantage for that kid?"

Ji Xiang smiled: "I said I won't rent, and I didn't say I didn't want this house. We can change the rent to buy, so as to avoid Yu Qingkui from having any trouble later, and simply solve all the hidden dangers at once."

Ji Xiang arrived at the front hall, told Xie Dongnan what he wanted, and told Xie Dongnan how to do it. After hearing this, Xie Dongnan immediately got up and went to find Yu Qingkui.

Xie Dongnan left, and Jixiang looked at Xiong Er: "How's the recruitment going?"

Xiong Er: "We are already over thirty. According to your instructions, I specially recruited ten teenage beggars. Those little beggars also asked us if we wanted a girl, saying that there were several with them. A girl."

Ji Xiang: "As long as they are willing to come, let them all stay. It is better to train them to be able to support themselves than to beg outside. By the way, you go find a house outside the city today and send the children there. .When the time comes, just bring someone to teach them."

Xiong Er: "Yes."

"Also," Ji Xiang thought for a while, "I'm going to ask Yapo to buy some younger ones with good character and smartness. I want to train a few female doctors. Of course, it's okay to have suitable ones among those wandering children."

Xiong Er: "It would be great if I could look for it in Xiaowazi Village. Many girls in the village have reached the age where they should learn to read and learn."

"Yes, how could I forget this? Thank you, Brother Xiong, for reminding me." Jixiang thought for a while, "In this case, I will send a letter to Li Da immediately and ask him to find a way to send all the children here."

Xiong Er was happy: "This is a good idea. It's better to train other children than our own. I'll write a letter right now. Does the eldest lady have any other instructions?"

"Send someone to the Kou Mansion to keep an eye on it, and tell me if there is any movement." Jixiang thought for a while and said.

"Yes!" Xiong Er left.

Xiong Er left, and Ji Xiang came out of the front hall and saw Zaohua, Erya, and Guard Li guarding the door. "Autumn is here, you can accompany me for a walk outside the city."
