General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 237: Someone Instigated? (2)

The villagers carried Ji Changqing out, but the village chief stayed where he was.

"We are late." The village chief patted Ji Xiaou's shoulder, and Ji Xiaou shook her head, "As long as we are here, it is not too late."

"I know the village chief wants me to leave no stain in the villagers' hearts. Thank you." Ji Xiaou knew that the reason why the village chief watched the excitement for so long was not because he was afraid that Ji Changqing was truly repentant, but because he wanted to take this opportunity to completely draw a line between Ji Changqing and her affairs in the villagers' hearts, without being burdened by the word "filial piety".

"Girl, it's good that you understand. In today's world, filial piety comes first. Although you have done a great favor to everyone, filial piety is a righteousness. You can't let your reputation be affected by a trivial matter like Ji Changqing's." The village chief said earnestly.

"I know that filial piety is the most important thing. It's not impossible to raise him, but I don't want to swallow this breath. He sold me. I was only a few years old back then, and he didn't care whether I lived or died. If you hadn't given me food all those years, I, Ji Xiaowu, wouldn't be alive today. Even if I have to fulfill my filial duty, it's for you."

"He, Ji Changqing, is not worthy."

Ji Xiaowu's words were powerful and the village chief nodded, "You are a good child."

After the village chief left, Fang Chen walked over to Ji Xiaomu and hugged her, "Wife, do you want me to go..."

"No, it's more meaningful to let him live than to let him die." Ji Xiaowu shook her head. She had never thought of letting Ji Changqing die. You know, sometimes, living is more painful than death.

"Girl, don't be sad. Ji Changqing is gone, but you have us." Aunt Wu hugged Ji Xiaou and said, and the other three godmothers came forward and hugged Ji Xiaou.

"I'm not sad." Ji Xiaowu smiled, "I have you."

"That's good to know." Everyone left with satisfaction.

Only Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen were left. Fang Chen carried Ji Xiaomu back into the house and looked at her, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"If you have anything to say, just say it directly." said Ji Xiaomu.

"There have been a lot of strangers in town recently." Fang Chen said, "The war between the princes has begun, and the world is going to be in chaos."

"How are you preparing?" Ji Xiaomu understood that Fang Chen had promised to protect her, so she was not afraid.

"Everything is ready, but we need a reason to launch a campaign. We need a name to establish ourselves, so we may have to put you in a difficult position for a while, so that the city can really get into chaos, and then we can 'appear'." Fang Chen wanted to establish himself directly, but Yang Hua and others persuaded him. If they established themselves now, they would not have a reason, and they would not be convincing, and it would be easy to expose themselves, which is a big taboo.

"I understand what you mean, don't worry." Ji Xiaomu sat in Fang Chen's arms, "As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid."

"I promised you that I would never let anything happen to you." Fang Chen said.

"I believe you can do it." Ji Xiaowu nodded. She believed that he would not go back on his word.

"There is one more thing. I think Ji Changqing might have been instructed by someone else to come here this time." Fang Chen said, "Old Four found out that someone had contact with Ji Changqing's son."

"When?" Ji Bugao asked.

"Just three days ago." Fang Chen said.

"So, someone deliberately made Ji Changqing come to see me today? But what was the purpose?" Ji Xiaowu raised her eyebrows.

"The village chief's words are the answer." Fang Chen replied, "Filial piety is the most important thing. If you are pointed out as being unfilial, it will be very serious."

"...What should I do if I suddenly feel a little angry?" Mother Ji was really a little angry.

"Have you found out who it is?"
