The Whole Family Went Crazy After Reading My Mind Chapter 24: Brother, I Can Hear Little Sister’s Voice
Mrs. Ji tossed and turned all night long.
Ji Linfeng was different. He thought his elder brother was smarter than him, and the incident was really serious, so he had an idea that night.
After dinner, Ji Linfeng followed Ji Yushu into the Qingzhu Courtyard, and took his confidant Zuo Tongzhi away with a mysterious look.
Ji Yushu saw at a glance that he had something important to say, so he asked him to push him into the study. On the table was Ji Yushu’s unfinished water conservancy design drawing.
“If you have something to say, please tell me now. I’m busy.”
Ji Linfeng came to the door, looked around, and locked the door only after making sure that no one was eavesdropping.
Seeing him lock the door, Ji Yushu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “What is it that making you so nervous?”
“It’s a big deal. It involves human lives.”
After hearing this, Ji Yushu stopped joking.
Ji Linfeng first poured himself a glass of water to moisten his throat, then walked closer to Ji Yushu and said in a low voice: “Brother, this matter is of no small importance. It concerns the life and death of more than a hundred people in the Ji family. You must stop it.”
Ji Yushu had never seen his second brother so serious. He straightened his face and asked in a deep voice, “Tell me what’s going on first?”
Ji Yushu tightly grasped the wheelchair armrests, thinking: Could it be that my second brother discovered that there are other suspicious people in the Ji Mansion? Could it be the closest person?
At this moment, he thought of Zuo Tong.
Ji Linfeng nervously picked up the teacup and drank a sip of water again, whetting Ji Yushu’s appetite, and then he said mysteriously: “Brother, I can hear little sister’s voice.”
After saying that, Ji Linfeng looked at Ji Yushu intently, thinking that he would see him in shock, but he was only shocked for a moment, and then he felt relieved, and finally he suddenly realized.
In short, his expression at this moment was difficult to describe.
Could it be that he could hear it too? Thinking of his recent changes, Ji Linfeng suddenly felt unwell. The finger pointing at Ji Yushu trembled constantly.
“Brother, you you you.”
“Yes, I can hear little sister’s voice too.” Ji Yushu looked at Ji Linfeng helplessly.
Ji Linfeng was immediately discouraged and felt a sense of failure. He still thought that he could be of some use under the powerful alliance, but in the end, he was still the dumbest one.
Since his elder brother could also hear their younger sister’s voice, then this matter will be much easier to handle. Thinking this way, he didn’t feel so uncomfortable.
“Since you can hear her voice, you must know about the stampede that will happen on Qingtian Street in three days. Do you have any way to stop it? If you need me, just let me know.” This matter concerns the lives of the entire Ji family, so we cannot be careless.
Ji Linfeng pulled out a stool and sat next to Ji Yushu, waiting attentively for his arrangements.
At the same time, he also exchanged known information with his eldest brother.
Ji Yushu combined everything he heard and analyzed, “New Year’s Eve is the most important festival of the year for the people of Shengyu. There will be countless people taking to the streets. We can’t stop this, but the assassins entering the city we should be able to notice something.”
After that, Ji Yushu looked at his younger brother, because he was in the military, so he had to come forward to handle this matter.
Ji Linfeng finally felt that he was still somewhat useful, so he patted his chest and promised: “Leave it to me.”
“Also, Uncle Fu must be eliminated on New Year’s Eve.”
After exchanging information, Ji Linfeng learned that Uncle Fu, Chunqin and Nanny Zhou were all spies. Chunqin mistakenly thought that Nanny Zhou had reported her, and accidentally beat her to death, and she also died. Now only Uncle Fu is left.
It would be great if they could take advantage of the chaos to kill Uncle Fu this time.
At the same time, Ji Linfeng thought of another person, that is Wu Da. “Brother, did you also discover that Wu Da?”
Ji Yushu shook his head: “No, Wu Da was an excuse I came up with after listening to younger sister’s thoughts.” If their younger sister hadn’t reminded him, he would never have thought of such a brilliant idea.
Ji Linfeng gave Ji Yushu a thumbs up: When it comes to wisdom and strategy, it has to be the eldest brother!
After that, the two discussed the details again, and after confirming that everything was correct, Ji Linfeng returned to his own courtyard. On the second day, Lord Ji went to court early.
The Imperial Palace.
At the head of the Zhengde Hall, Emperor Yu sat calmly, with a dignified and indifferent look.
After the civil and military officials finished their kneeling ceremony, they heard Emperor Yu speak majestically: “Today is the last day of court this year. The issue of flood control in Jiangyu is of vital importance. I hope that this matter can be implemented as soon as possible. Now, please express your opinions, my dear ministers.”
The officials looked at each other. After a long while, someone stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, the money needed has been prepared, but no one has submitted the water conservancy structure diagram. Without the structure diagram, it will be useless even if I go to Jiangyu.”
The person who spoke was the Minister of Works Li Yuanzhao. On the surface, he was a follower of the Second Prince, but in fact he had already been bribed by the Third Prince.
Regarding the structural drawings, a call for submissions was made some time ago, and anyone who is capable could do their part, but still no one has submitted the drawings.
At this time, someone looked at Ji Xiaoshan, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and said: “Your Majesty, I heard that the eldest son of Lord Ji’s family is quite knowledgeable about Kong Mingsuo. I wonder if the eldest son of the Ji family is willing to serve the country?”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone’s eyes fell on Lord Ji.
Lord Ji clenched his hands in his sleeves and spoke after a long while: “Your Majesty, my son has been in much worse shape since his leg was poisoned two years ago. He is not up to the task.”
Two years ago, when investigating an assassin, he was simply dismissed as a thief. It was impossible not to feel angry.
Even if he knew that his son had already started drawing the structural diagram, he would not give up easily.
At the top, Emperor Yu sighed heavily and mentioned the past events: “If it weren’t for the assassination two years ago, the child of the Ji family would have been able to take on great responsibilities. At that time, I really didn’t agree with his resignation, but… Forget it, forget it, I will leave this matter to the Crown prince. Let’s see if there is anyone who is capable of this matter in this autumn examination.”
“Your son obeys your command!” The Crown prince bowed in response.
“Also, this is a rare learning opportunity. When the time comes, Li Aiqing will take the Crown Prince and the Second Brother with him. He must complete this matter to perfection.”
“Yes, your son/chen accepts the decree.”
The Crown prince and Li Yuanzhao said at the same time.
After the court session ended, Emperor Yu summoned Lord Ji to the imperial study alone, simply to ask him to go back and persuade Ji Yushu that every citizen has a share of responsibility for matters of state.
He also expressed that he was very optimistic about Ji Yushu and would seek out famous doctors to treat him, and hoped that he would return to the court to serve the country.
After leaving the imperial study, Lord Ji looked at the white snow outside and felt confused for a moment.
My daughter said that the Ji family would end up with their property confiscated and the whole family exterminated, but he was loyal to the emperor and patriotic all his life and had never done anything that went against his conscience.
He felt heartbroken when he thought about his talented eldest son, his high-spirited second son, his lovely daughter, and his kind-hearted wife becoming victims of the Beiheng family’s political struggle.
Screw Sheng Yu, screw the Beiheng family. If you dare to use the lives of my family as a stepping stone, I will fight you to the death.
Thinking of this, Lord Ji strode out of the palace with a gloomy face.
In the north corner, the Crown prince stood in the snow, watching Lord Ji leave from afar. Two years ago, in the same place, with the same person, in the same world, that man with weapons and armor just disappeared.
The one who came back was another ordinary man who did not seek fame or success, but only wanted to live a peaceful and stable life.
Today, he seemed to have seen the man who had thrown away the Red Cherry Spear picking it up again and returning on his iron horse.
What was the reason that made him regain his former glory?
No matter what the reason is, he knows that Ji Yushu’s love for the Kong Mingsuo was almost to the point of obsession.
The candidate must be him, and now the question was how to invite him.
If it doesn’t work once, do it twice. If it doesn’t work twice, do it three times.
