Madam, please give me some advice

Chapter 191: Are you worthy of being a high-ranking official?

Ji Xingle nodded. Although the other person had doubts, they were not unreasonable enough to offend him, so there was no need to get angry.

"Wait."

Putting aside the two words, Ji Xingle got on the carriage and explained to Cheng Shenshen why they were here.

Hearing this, although Cheng Shenshen felt a little regretful, he did not indulge himself too much. Instead, he asked worriedly;

"Will there be any danger? I heard that many of them came, but they couldn't find you. Is there any conspiracy waiting for you?"

"Pfft~"

Hearing this, Ji Xingle smiled and said, "Have you been reading the bad picture book again?"

"How...how do you know?"

Ji Xingle reached out and tapped his nose and said;

"Don't think too much. I'll have someone send you back first and take you out to play next time."

Cheng Shenshen hugged Ji Xingle reluctantly and said, "Please be careful."

"wave~"

Ji Xingle kissed Cheng Shenshen and got off the carriage. He watched the carriage woman drive the carriage towards Cheng's house. He turned around and looked at Yan Ming...

"Which places were searched? Which places were not searched?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming and Su Wu immediately told Ji Xingle all the places they had searched.

After listening, Ji Xingle asked, "How can I notify you when I find the person?"

Hearing this, Yan Ming immediately excitedly took out a small wooden pipe from his arms;

"Ms. Ji, once you find someone, just pull this gently and release it into the air. My people will come over immediately when they see it."

Ji Xingle was quite interested in the signal device of this era. He took it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then waved at Yan Ming.

"gone."

After saying this, he disappeared without a trace in two or three steps. Su Wu, who was standing behind him and had not even had time to blink, almost dropped his jaw when he saw this.

She completely believed in the ability of this man named Ji.

Yan Ming had seen Ji Xingle many times, so he didn't feel much. He dragged Su Wu, who was still shocked, to continue searching for people...

Yao Mei's face was bruised and swollen, and he was surrounded and questioned by ten merchants;

"Why are you running?"

"Is there something you are hiding from us?"

Yao Mei said with a guilty conscience, "No...no, I...I just wanted to go outside to get some fresh air and go home to get something."

"is it?"

Yao Mei said with a false smile, "Yes... yes... yes..."

"Tell us what you want and we'll send someone to get it for you. But if you're sneaky and hiding something from us, don't blame us for being rude to you."

"Yes... yes... I remember, I remember."

One of the merchants suddenly asked, "What have you done wrong that so many people are arresting you?"

Hearing this, not only Yao Mei, but also other merchants looked at the person asking the question...

Yao Mei's eyes showed panic and nervousness. He quickly lowered his head to look at the ground, thinking to himself: Could she have heard some rumors?

The other merchants asked, "What do you mean by that?"

“When we discussed rescuing her before, wasn’t it because we didn’t know what she had done wrong?

Moreover, there were only a few dozen of them on the first day, and we thought we could get rid of them, but in the end, they only killed a few people, and we suffered heavy losses.

These days, so many people in the government have been searching for her. Although they haven't found out why they are looking for her, now even the Dali Temple's officials have shown up.

Do you think we still have reason to keep her alive? Don't let that put us all at risk."

Hearing this, the people present were stunned. That's right! They were just afraid of trouble, thinking that she had offended someone, and thought that the person surnamed Yao had a chance to turn things around.

As a result, they still haven't found out the reason, they just know that someone is trying to catch her...

Yao Mei didn't know what everyone present was thinking. At this moment, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that they didn't know the reason. If they didn't know, her chances of running away would be greater.

Without waiting for others to reply, Yao Mei, with a bruised face, said with authority:

"I offended that Ji girl, and you all know that. She must be coveting my other property, so she called people to accuse me of a crime.

Just wait! I have sent a letter to my brother in the palace, and you all know his situation.

A daughter was born a few years ago. Her status is not much lower than that of a noble lord. It is even possible that she will be promoted to a noble position soon.

So, as long as my brother receives the letter, he will definitely whisper in the Queen's ear, and then I will be safe, right?"

After Yao Mei finished speaking, he saw that the others were hesitating, so he added more fuel.

"Don't worry, we have been partners for decades. How can I deceive you? You have saved me these days.

I've seen it all and I've kept it in mind. When I'm out of danger, I'll definitely remember your kindness.

Besides, everyone has unmarried sons in their families. My brother is far away in the capital, where there are many nobles. I will ask him to introduce suitable in-laws to all the sisters.

Look, what do you think? My sincerity is good, right? "

Hearing this, the merchants present were all tempted. After all, although business is encouraged nowadays, most people still look down on businessmen in their bones.

If my son could marry a high-ranking official, especially one from the capital, wouldn't that be a great blessing?

A few people gathered together and whispered...

When Yao Mei saw this, she knew that the matter was done, and her eyes were full of contempt, but everyone was busy dreaming and did not notice her look.

After a while, several people asked her questions with a smile and apologized for the servants' beating her.

Yao Mei was also told to ask for anything he wanted, and that if he wanted to go out for some fresh air,

They would try to find something for the Dali Temple Minister to do, and then left some silver notes for Yao Mei, telling her to tell the servants to buy whatever she wanted to eat.

Then, with Yao Mei's sincere expression, a group of people walked out of the secret passage one after another...

Yao Mei held thousands of taels of silver in his hand and smiled, "Humph! A bunch of idiots."

"hiss..."

Because he laughed too happily, the wound on Yao Mei's face began to hurt. Then he took the ointment they left on the table and applied it to the painful area on his face while cursing.

When I think of the pain I'm in, I hate them so much, and yet they want their sons to marry high-ranking officials?

"Pooh!"

What? Are you worthy? After Yao Mei finished scolding him, he felt pain all over his body and was extremely tired, so he decided to take a nap before planning a route to escape...

Ji Xingle used his wood ability to sense something and soon found something wrong in an inconspicuous corner...

There were originally nearly twenty auras, but suddenly ten were reduced, and after standing around for a long time, no one showed up.

Ji Xingle sneaked in and knocked down all the guards with a tranquilizer gun.

When he turned over and entered the house, he saw Yao Mei, with a bruised face and nose, resting.

He turned over and walked out of the yard, took out a flare and pulled it into the air.

"Chirp..."
