The prefect chatted some more with his daughter, and then left to let her rest.

Ji Yan still didn't say that Gu Jinkun did anything in the incense.

In Bianzhou, the Ji family and the Gu family were on good terms with each other. They were like the guardian of their daughters. If they knew that Gu Jinkun had done such a bastard thing, they would definitely seek an explanation from the Gu family.

But in fact, the opportunity has been missed. The best time would be to inform the head of the Gu family and his wife about the matter when they are in the Gu family, and let them give their explanations, but it is too late at this time, not to mention that it will be hurt. They had no evidence of the harmony between the two families, and the Ji family's words alone could not do anything to Gu Jinkun.

Even if Mrs. Gu believed him, the most she could do was punish Gu Jinkun by kneeling in the ancestral hall, which would not really make him pay any price.

Therefore, no matter how you calculate it, it is a thankless task.

After thinking for a moment, Ji Yan said to Biyun: "Go to the ancestral hall and see if Wei Yun has left. If he is still there, let him go back first. I'm worried that my father promised me not to punish Wei Yun, but he just said it. Talk about it.”

"Okay, miss." Biyun reached out and put down the gauze curtain on her bedside, and then walked out.

When they arrived at the ancestral hall, Biyun couldn't help but be surprised. The young lady understood the prefect, and the prefect did not send anyone to the ancestral hall to deliver the message.

Wei Yun was still kneeling in the ancestral hall. The young man's back was straight and his hair almost fell on the futon. When Biyun approached, Wei Yun turned his head and glanced at her.

Just this one glance almost sent Biyun away, as if he was suddenly pushed into a lake full of broken ice in winter, so cold.Mr. Wei's gaze was indeed a bit scary, perhaps because he had resentment in his heart.

She calmed down and conveyed Ji Yan's words: "Mr. Wei, just now the head of the family met with the young lady. The young lady begged for your favor. The head of the family has promised not to punish you. You can go back to your room to rest."

Biyun will subconsciously defend Ji Yan when talking. For example, when talking to Wei Yun, she will always tell everything the young lady has done for him, in order to let the other party know how much the young lady has done for him behind his back.

But these words always seemed a bit deliberate to Wei Yun's ears.

Just like how well the young lady has been treating him recently, it's hard not to make people suspicious.

Wei Yun responded, lowered his eyes and got up from the futon, the thoughts in his heart were still active.

In fact, even if the lady is really planning to play some trick on him, it doesn't matter. He will make the lady regret it by then.

When Biyun returned to Ji Yan's room, the girl was just about to rest.

Seeing Biyun, he couldn't help but lean out from the quilt and blinked his moist, dark eyes.

"As expected, the prefect didn't ask Mr. Wei to go back."

"Yeah, I got it." Ji Yan didn't say anything, turned over and rested her arms on the quilt.

In the past, she thought that the prefect father hated Wei Yun because he liked Aunt Wei, so she was very jealous of other men having children with Aunt Wei. But after chatting with the prefect father for a while tonight, Ji Yan had a new idea.

Maybe there is something about the origins of Aunt Wei and Wei Yun, which is why the prefect father is so concerned about them.

Ji Yan thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of a reason. After asking Biyun to step back, she fell asleep sleepily.

Ji Yan originally wanted to talk to Wei Yun the next day and listen to him explain in detail what happened that day at the Gu family.

As a result, the prefect father seemed to have anticipated her thoughts in advance, so he sent people to guard outside her room, preventing her from going out on the pretext of letting her take good care of her health these days.

Ji Yan had no choice but to give up and walk around the yard at most every day. The rest of the time she spent reading some books to relieve her boredom.

Within a few days, the news that the young master of the Gu family passed out on the body of a brothel girl spread throughout Bianzhou City.

As soon as Biyun heard the news, he told Ji Yan very relievedly.

"Miss, I heard that Young Master Gu will no longer be humane from now on. I'm really relieved!" Biyun clenched his fists and said, "I can only say that evil people will be punished by nature. This is all retribution."

Ji Yan was amused by her expression.

Biyun didn't seem to be relieved yet, and continued to express with joy: "People outside are saying that Young Master Gu really died under the peony flowers this time."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a huge commotion in the mansion.

Both of them were taken aback.

Immediately, the prefect's father ran over with sweat on his face. Ji Yan's brows were haggard, and he still felt a little guilty when he looked at his daughter.

He said to Biyun: "Hurry up and pack your belongings for the young lady. We will go to the ferry to take a boat to Kyoto tonight."

Biyun was confused, but she followed what the prefect said.

Ji Yan had already guessed something, but she could only pretend to be confused at the moment, "Dad, what happened? Why are you going to Kyoto?"

"I'm sorry, Dad." Ji Yan's eyes were bloodshot, and he obviously hadn't been able to sleep well these days. "I don't know who wrote a letter to the Holy Emperor of Kyoto, listing all my crimes over the years. That person actually had enough evidence in his hand. After the Holy Lord read it, Long Yan was furious and dismissed me as the prefect, and called the government to raid my house."

Ji Yan was slightly silent.

Sure enough, the setting of the original work was still not changed, and the Ji family was still ransacked.

The girl's lowered eyes fell on Ji Yan's eyes, making him blame himself even more.

"Don't be afraid, Yanyan, we still have a way out. Do you still remember that when you were young, you arranged a baby marriage with Xie Cheng'an, the crown prince in Kyoto? As long as you and I, father and daughter, go to the capital to join the crown prince, we can avoid disaster."

Ji Yan pursed her lips, nodded, and simply said: "Then my father will also take Wei Yun with him on this trip."

Ji Yan was stunned, "How long has it been and you still care about Wei Yun?"

The girl said in a soft voice: "Wei Yun is also half of Ji's family after all. Dad can't leave him alone."

Ji Yan was silent for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "That's fine, dad will listen to you and take that boy with him."

"Daddy will go and clean up first. He will pick you up after a stick of incense and take you to the ferry."

"Okay." Ji Yan nodded.

After Ji Yan left, the girl looked at the busy Biyun: "Now that the Ji family has declined, if you want to regain your freedom, I will let you go."

Biyun was startled when he heard this, and then he knelt down and held Ji Yan's hand. When he raised his head, there were tears in his eyes: "Young lady knows, Biyun lost her parents when she was young, and it was the head of the family who gave them to her." This slave's second life gives me the opportunity to serve the young lady. No matter where the young lady goes in the future, Biyun is willing to follow the young lady."

Ji Yan was slightly stunned when she heard this, and felt a little moved in her heart. She couldn't help but raise her hand and touch her head: "Are you really willing to follow me?"

Biyun nodded vigorously: "Wherever the lady goes, Biyun will go."

After the words fell, Ji Yan bent her eyes: "Okay."

She thought of Wei Yun again, and said, "You pack up first, and remember to bring your own things with you. I'll go to Litang Courtyard to see Wei Yun."

"But Miss, the head of Mr. Wei's side should send someone to inform him."

"I'm not worried. It's better to go there in person."

Biyun thought about it and felt that it made sense. After all, this was not the first time that the head of the family promised the young lady but then refused to do it.

At this time in Litang Courtyard, Wei Yun was dressed in black, with his dark hair tied up, and his watery eyes were quietly looking at the fallen leaves in the courtyard.

The governor's house was ransacked today, and I wonder if the young lady thought of him.
