After Rong Ji finished speaking, he didn't continue.

Sang Ruo suddenly realized that the memory of the past might be a difficult hurdle for her to overcome.So he thoughtfully brought the topic over: "Then can you find out what are those trophies?"

Rong Ji was silent for a moment: "It is said that there are women's bellybands and embroidered shoes..."

It was the first time for Sang Ruo to hear Rong Ji speak in such a cold voice.

"There is still some evidence of the bloody case." Rong Ji paused, "For example, the fire that the girl from Jilan mentioned, he must have kept relevant things."

Jilan's eyes were wide open, his fists were clenched tightly, and he couldn't understand: "Why? Isn't this for yourself?"

Rong Ji said quietly: "Because he lives in such an environment, there is a big tree behind him that no one can shake, and everything he does will be settled and forgiven, so he will naturally pursue some more exciting things, just like playing a game .It's his ego."

Gillan seemed to understand: "Then, if we find those things, can we deal with him?"

Sang Ruo shook her head slightly: "Not enough."

Rong Ji was silent.

Gillan: "Not enough!?"

She bit her lips: "Is the physical evidence not enough? I can be a witness and help you identify him."

Two eyes focused on her, and she lowered her head nervously.

Sang Ruo looked at her seriously: "You will be involved."

Gillan said, "I'm not afraid! I'm alone now. If I were afraid of these things, I wouldn't be here now. Is this enough?"

Sang Ruo still shook his head: "Not enough."

"not enough?"

Sang Ruo: "Not enough, he has his back against the city lord."

The city lord only has him as his son, even if things are unstoppable, he can put on his old face and turn black and white.In a world where power is in power and there is no justice, it is impossible to reason.

Gillan was at a loss: "Then what should I do?"

Sang Ruo followed the instructions carefully: "The easiest way is to kill him right here, and I will help you."

Ji Lan hesitated, but Rong Ji said, "Don't tease her, since you said that, there is a way?"

Sang Ruo's eyes fell on Rong Ji, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

"It's actually not difficult, we need 'potential'."

If there are injustices, if there are roadblocks in the way, overthrow them all.Given the current situation in Ganmu City, the only real way out is to break the existing order, get rid of Shen Ke, and scrape the bones to cure the poison.

……

The three of them searched together, and finally found a secret passage in the young city lord's room, leading to the secret room. The things inside were... eye-opening.

The system hurriedly made a mosaic for itself, and murmured: 【I'm not a clean system anymore. 】

After coming out, both Rongji and Jilan looked unhappy, and Sang Ruo kicked the young city lord with his toe in disgust.She didn't understand how humans like to make so many moths.

Out of consideration for future plans, the things in the secret room were not touched.Sang Ruo erased the young city lord's memory again, and made some changes.

After the banquet was over, Jilan changed into the attire of a servant of the gods and left with the team of the gods. Only then did she know that that gentle and beautiful girl was actually the respected Lord Siwu!

She swore directly to the most revered god that she would keep the secret forever.

Rong Ji nodded slightly in the name of Si Wu, as a recognition of her existence.

In addition, the heart of defense is indispensable. It is insurance and protection. Gillan will stay in the court for a period of time until the plan is completed.

When leaving the city lord's mansion, Rong Ji gently lifted the curtain of the cloud sedan chair, and there were mansion guards patrolling around, shouting "The young city lord has been attacked".

The City Lord's Mansion wanted to detain the guests temporarily and find someone who could do it, but there were many powerful and powerful people who came, and some people were unwilling, so they made a fuss.

No one dared to stop the people in Shenting, if Sang and the others left smoothly, let those people quarrel for the rest.

Jilan still looked a little uneasy, and Sang Ruo said slowly, "Do you know what it means to bring misfortune to the east?"

Gillan: "...?"

Rong Ji took off his mask, showed his natural smile, and explained to Jilan: "It's a bit long to say, but in short, besides the young city lord, we have other people to deal with. It's better to let the two fight now."

Previously, because of Sang Ruo's actions, there was some small friction between the City Lord's Mansion and the forces secretly raised by Mei Si. Now, what will happen if we add fire to it?

That's another story.

If Sang Ruo said nothing, it was the default.

Back to the court.

Walking into Si Wu's mansion, Lan Jiujiu had already been released by Mei Si, and she was very excited to see them: "You don't know what my life is like today..."

Seeing that there was one more person behind the two, the movement stopped again.

Rong Ji briefly said that this is the new servant, and Lan Jiu understood that this was one of his own, and happily dragged Jilan around to introduce him.

At this moment, the moon was hanging high, and the orange-yellow jade plate seemed to have been bitten off by a dog, but it was still very bright, making the stars beside it less conspicuous.

Sang Ruo and Rong Ji were under the tree, watching Ji Lan being dragged into the back room by Lan Jiujiu.

Gillan has a shy personality and has experienced great difficulties. She always seems a little silent, and it is difficult to let go of her emotions in front of the two of them.Lan Jiujiu was different, he was born carefree, carefree, and a gossip.

"I think they will be a good match." Rong Ji smiled.

Sang Ruo squatted under the tree, raised her eyes to look at her, but said: "Not in a good mood?"

The smile on Rong Ji's face gradually faded.

There was wind at night, wrapped in a bit of coolness, Rong Ji raised his hand to catch a leaf that fell from the tree: "When I was young, Mei Si told me that I am different from other people."

Sang Ruo knew that Rong Ji was trying to express what was accumulated in his heart.

There are not many people in Rongji who can talk to each other. Among the other servants, there is Mei Si's eyeliner, who cannot be trusted. The only one who is more trustworthy, Lan Jiu, is naive and can't tell her such a thing.

But those things stay in the bottom of my heart for a long time, they will rot and pus, and become an indelible scar.

So Sang Ruo listened quietly.She has no chance to participate in Rongji's past, all she can do is listen.

Rong Ji laughed at himself: "For a long time, I thought that I was different from other people, and I even got some bad habits of arrogance and domineering. I like to play pranks and make fun of people. No one around me dare to say One word, bear it silently, and Mei Si will let me do it, so I don't think it's a big deal."

"I didn't expect you to be a little troublemaker when you were a child." Sang Ruo tried to think about it, and felt that such a close friend is also very cute.

Rong Ji smiled lightly, playing with the fallen leaves unconsciously with his fingertips: "Yeah, I thought it was a way of expressing love. Until one day, the old god who served me closely fell ill, and Mei Si sent a new You should be able to guess that that is my good friend who died young. Her number is Jiu, Lanbu, and I call her Lan Jiu."

"It was she who told me that it would only cause trouble."

Rongji's light-colored pupils reflected the night sky: "Do you know, this is the first time someone has said that to me. If it weren't for her, I might become someone like the young city master in the future."

Sang Ruo interrupted her: "You won't."

Rong Ji smiled, this time sincerely: "Thank you for your confidence in me."

Sang Ruo turned his head away.

"and after?"

"later……"

Mei Si gave a lot of "favor" to Rong Ji when she was a child. She can do anything unscrupulously in the Shenting, but she gets very little, because all she can see is the sky above the Shenting.

But how big can that be.

"She was chosen to take care of me because of her intelligence and stability, but then I thought that she was actually rebellious and unruly in her bones."

Lan Jiu loves beauty, likes to buy rouge, takes good care of the mask, and puts one or two plain orchids on the back of the mask or on the hair.Also likes to drink.

The existence of god servants actually requires them to erase their original personality and edges and corners, and serve the gods wholeheartedly.And Lan Jiu is undoubtedly an outlier among them.

So such Lan Jiu will also do some things that the previous God's servants have not done.

She would tell Rongji what empathy and empathy are, and she would tell Rongji that she and the people around her are equal in a certain way.

She also secretly took Rongji to a small festival one night.

That was Rongji's first time going out, so it was like that outside, and it turned out that what other people said about Siwu's responsibility, "the citizens you want to protect", was such a specific and important thing.

Rong Ji was seven years old that year.

But there were some accidents when she went out that time. She and Lan Jiu were separated, and finally alarmed Shenting. Mei Si personally ordered and sent people to search secretly.

When she was found, she was taken in by a kind townsman, who was waiting for Lan Jiu to come back to find her, but she didn't expect to see Mei Si's angry face.

Mei Si is an old lady who loves to keep a straight face, but because she has never had much control over Rong Ji, Rong Ji is not very afraid of her.

until this time.

Rong Ji didn't receive any punishment, because Lan Jiu took all the punishment. Mei Si said, the master can't make a mistake, if he made a mistake, it must be instigated by the slave, do you understand?

She cried and nodded.

Although in the end, at her request, Lan Jiu was not deprived of her status as Wu's close attendant, but Lan Jiu was so injured that she couldn't leave the bed for several months.

After Lan Jiu recovered from her injury, she didn't have a problem with it, and played with her as before and taught her some things.

But Rong Ji knew that something was different.It is she who is different.

She began to question whether what the fourth mother-in-law Mei said was right. Going out was obviously a good thing, and she learned a lot, but the mother-in-law said that she had made a big mistake.It is clear that she is the most honorable person in the court, but she cannot escape the punishment of her closest partner.

At that time, she couldn't figure it out.

Then, when she was ten years old, something else happened.

Lan Jiu went shopping, but when she came back, she seemed to be a different person. She didn't like to talk or laugh anymore, and she often looked absent-minded.

She asked her sister what was wrong, but Lan Jiu didn't answer, just quietly stroking her head.

After a while, Lan Jiu quietly disappeared beside her and was replaced by other god servants. She suddenly felt flustered and ran to ask Fourth Granny Mei.

Mei Si sneered: "She, she hung a white silk on the tree and died!"

Her head was buzzing, what is death, a good person, a few days ago she even braided her hair, how can you call it dead?

After further questioning, Fourth Granny Mei said things like "I have done it myself" and "I am so out of line, something will happen sooner or later". She didn't want to listen and ran away.

The servant would also spread some gossip when he was idle, so Rong Ji was able to piece together the truth.

During the shopping trip, Lan Jiu somehow offended the young city lord and lost her chastity to serve the gods. Later, she didn't know whether she suddenly couldn't think about it or had other reasons, so she hanged herself outside the court.

"Fortunately" it was discovered early, and no outsiders saw it. Mei Si suppressed the matter and dealt with it secretly.Rong Ji didn't even have time to see her for the last time.

I heard that Lan Jiu also wore a mask when she died, but there was no flower she liked next to the mask. All the masks in the Lan Department are standard, and every god servant is the same.

It was as if Lan Jiu, as a person with no name and no appearance, died in an ordinary way.

Rong Ji thought, she has to remember.
