"father."

Zhu Dongfeng shouted, his voice was very hoarse.

"Hey." Zhu's father supported him: "Who beat you like this?"

"Ji...Ji Chuzheng."

"who?"

Father Zhu didn't react for a moment.

"Ji Chuzheng from the Ji family." Zhu Dongfeng gritted his teeth.

"..."

Father Zhu looked at his son strangely, wondering if he had been beaten stupidly.

There was only one Ji family in his memory, but that Ji family disappeared five years ago.

One of Zhu Dongfeng's eyes was swollen and could not be opened. At this time, he could only close one eye and open the other. There were bloodshot eyes inside. He held Zhu's father's hand and kept exerting force: "Dad, she is not dead. She is Still alive, she’s back.”

Father Zhu frowned and reached out to touch Zhu Dongfeng's forehead.

"Dad, I'm not crazy." Zhu Dongfeng blocked his father's hand: "What I said is true. She lives on Haitang Street."

Seeing Zhu Dongfeng's serious expression, Zhu's father also became solemn: "We saw everyone in the Ji family being beheaded back then, how could anyone be alive?"

"I don't know how she survived, but she did."

Father Zhu muttered: "Tell me everything carefully."

Zhu Dongfeng explained the previous events to Zhu Fuzai in detail.

Zhu's father's expression became darker and darker as he listened.

The Ji family actually has some fish that slipped through the net.

How did she escape?

I clearly looked at it at first...

"You have a good rest and don't think about other things. Dad will handle this matter."

"Dad, why do you think she came back? Is she to overturn the case for the Ji family?"

No matter how she escaped, now that she suddenly came back, she must have reversed the case for the Ji family.

Zhu's father pressed Zhu Dongfeng's shoulder and said with a gloomy face: "What are you afraid of? The Ji family's charges are perfect. All the witnesses from back then have been dealt with, and no one can reverse the case for the Ji family. She, the daughter of a guilty minister, still dares to show up now, This is asking for death."

Now that he ran away, he couldn't live well outside, so he dared to come back here.

Father Zhu patted him on the shoulder: "Have a good rest and don't think too much."

-

Early morning.

Zhu's father was thinking about something and didn't notice anyone in front of him, so he almost jumped in.

"Master Zhou, I'm sorry." Father Zhu came to his senses and immediately apologized.

"Master Zhu, what's wrong with you, are you absent-minded?" Master Zhou waved his hand to show that he didn't care.

"It's okay, it's just a matter of family."

"Oh." Mr. Zhou's eyes were a little strange, but Father Zhu was not paying attention to Mr. Zhou at this time, so he naturally didn't notice.

The emperor did not appear in the morning court again, so Yin Shen went to court on his behalf.

All the ministers in the court were obviously used to such a scene, so they finished what they had to say and left the court.

"Lord Chitose." Father Zhu called Yin Shen.

Yin Shen rolled up his sleeves and stopped: "Master Zhu, what can I do?"

"How is your Majesty's health these days?"

"Alright."

"Sir Chitose, can you tell me that I have something to report to Your Majesty?"

Yin Shen smiled and said, "Master Zhu, your Majesty doesn't want to see anyone these days. I've said this before. His current temper makes it hard for me to be disobedient. If you really have an emergency, Master Zhu, I can report it on your behalf."

Mr. Zhu: "..."

It's hard to say whether the emperor didn't want to see people, or whether Yin Shen didn't want the emperor to see people.

But now inside and outside the palace, Yin Shen covers the sky with one hand, what can they do.

No one dares to let them in without Yin Shen's permission.

"It's not an important matter. I'll come back when Your Majesty feels better."

Yin Shen did not force him, nodded slightly, and left with the people.

Master Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the direction Yin Shen left. After a while, he turned around and left the palace.

Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhou met outside the palace.

Mr. Zhou seemed to have turned back and was walking towards the palace.

When Mr. Zhou met Mr. Zhu, he stopped and asked curiously: "Mr. Zhu, what did you do with... Mr. Qiantose just now?"

"It's nothing." Mr. Zhu shook his head and took the initiative to change the subject: "Why did Mr. Zhou come back and go to the palace again?"

Mr. Zhou: "Just now someone from the palace came to send a message that Your Majesty summoned me."

It was not unusual for the emperor to see a certain minister alone. Mr. Zhu was confused about what was going on, but he didn't ask. After all, each of them had different responsibilities.

The two soon separated.

In the next few days, Mr. Zhu always wanted to see the emperor.

However, Yin Shen refused to allow him to see the emperor for reasons such as "Your Majesty is unwell" and "Your Majesty is in a bad mood".

Of course he was not alone, and no other ministers could see him.

Except——Master Zhou.

Mr. Zhou seems to be doing something recently and sees the emperor every now and then.

Mr. Zhu thought carefully about Mr. Zhou's deeds. Although he was not directly involved in the Ji family's affairs back then, he was not considered to be against the faction.

Why not ask him for help?

Mr. Zhu did not go up and ask, "Would you like to report the daughter of the guilty minister and make a meritorious service?" Instead, he first tested Mr. Zhou's attitude.

After some testing, Master Zhu was probably sure that there was no problem, and finally took action.

"Master Zhou, please stay."

After the court dispersed, Master Zhu called Master Zhou to stop him.

"Master Zhu, what's the matter?"

"I would like to ask Mr. Zhou to talk about it. I wonder if Mr. Zhou has time?"

They are all colleagues, and Mr. Zhu has been chatting with him lately, so it is hard for Mr. Zhou to refuse.

-

Mr. Zhou left Zhu Mansion with a complicated and strange expression.

As he was about to return to his mansion, something suddenly occurred to him.

The girl in white he met before, he said that she looked familiar...

It turned out to be someone from the Ji family.

The Ji family's crimes were so damning that regardless of whether they were grievances or not, there was almost no way to overturn the verdict.

Now suddenly a daughter of the Ji family is still alive. This matter...

Lord Zhou remembered Yin Shen's expression at that time, and he immediately opened the curtain: "Enter the palace."

-

"Sir, Master Zhou would like to see you."

Yin Shen was playing with an exquisite teapot. After hearing this, he put the teapot into a box covered with thick velvet. There were several small cups in it: "Send it to Miss Chuzheng. Let him come in."

Mr. Zhou was brought in.

"Chitose-sama."

Yin Shen leaned on the chair and looked at him with a half-smile: "Master Zhou should have almost done what he wants to do, why are you still coming to me?"

Mr. Zhou: "There is something I want to report to Mr. Chitose."

Yin Shen put his fingertips on his chin and rubbed it gently. He was in a good mood and said, "Well, tell me."

Mr. Zhou quickly sold Mr. Zhu.

Yin Shen didn't have any reaction, and Master Zhou felt a little uneasy after speaking.

That day he saw Yin Shen looking at the girl and even stopped talking... He felt that this matter was a bit mysterious, so he didn't dare to go to His Majesty directly, so he came to talk to Yin Shen first.

Mr. Zhou wanted something from Yin Shen, so he naturally wanted to please him at this time.

After a long while, Yin Shen smiled and said, "I understand. Mr. Zhou has nothing else to do, so please come back."

Master Zhou wanted to ask what to do about this matter, but Yin Shen had no intention of talking, so he had to withdraw.
