He lifted his legs and walked forward again, going into the house.

Aqi, who was lying on the tree branch, let out a long sigh. It was so dangerous, he almost got discovered.

He frowned and stared at He Ye's back, as if he had seen him somewhere.

He didn't think too much. He had only one goal, to attack Tong Jianfang.

If Tong Jianfang wants him to die, then he also wants Tong Jianfang to die.

Ah Qi bit his back teeth in hatred.

He didn't understand why Tong Jianfang wanted to take him back when he already had two sons. It wouldn't be good for him if he did.

Tong Jianfang asked him to read, but he felt sleepy as soon as he saw the book.

Tong Jianfang realized that he was not cut out for study, so he stormed out and never paid any attention to him again.

The mistress came to his yard every few days and said a lot of dirty words to slander his mother.

Aqi didn't like to hear it, but he didn't dare to resist.

That time he found Tong Jianfang and told him about it, but he didn't expect Tong Jianfang to scold him for not knowing etiquette and not respecting the mistress.

Aqi was almost angry to death.

Tong Jianfang asked him about his homework, but he couldn't answer a single word.

Tong Jianfang scolded him.

It was Chinese New Year, so he took advantage of the chaos and ran away.

Unexpectedly, Tong Jianfang actually sent someone to look for him and wanted to kill him.

Aqi adjusted his position and lay quietly on the tree, waiting for the old man to come back.

A few days ago, he heard that Tong Jianfang would come to Xishan Temple to preside over a ceremony.

Aqi placed the mud ball on a thick branch, pulled the slingshot, squinted his eyes and looked for the direction.

Satisfied, he put away the slingshot and continued to wait.

Ji Xiaobei looked around but couldn't find Aqi. She came to the backyard of the main temple. When the guards saw her, they nervously clenched their knives.

She waved her hand and said she had taken the wrong road.

It seems that this is where Lord Tong rests.

Ji Xiaobei walked slowly.

Aqi must be nearby. If this child falls into the hands of the guards and is mistaken for an assassin, we will be doomed.

Ji Xiaobei hid behind a rockery.

A guard ran over hurriedly.

After a while, a few more guards appeared on the road.

Minister Tong came over from the main temple, and Prefect Liang followed him, bowing and nodding.

After walking for a while, Minister Tong said a few words, and Prefect Liang hurriedly knelt down to pay his respects and left.

Ji Xiaobei felt amused: Prefect Liang almost became Minister Tong's father-in-law. If that were the case, perhaps Prefect Liang would not have to be so humble.

Snapped……

Something fell from the sky and hit Minister Tong's black hat.

"Ouch!"

He held his head in his hands, looked at the sky in horror, and then looked at the guards.

When the guards in the distance heard the sound, they hurried over, surrounded Lord Tong, and looked around in horror.

He Ye also hurried over and looked around vigilantly.

Doing security work for adults is really not an easy job, He Ye had a cold face and a frown on his face.

"Protect Master Tong!"

Something flew over again with a whoosh. Shangshu Tong just stood up and then squatted down again.

He Ye tapped his feet lightly, jumped up and caught the flying object.

He crushed the clay ball in his hand.

"Damn it, why is there another mud ball..." He cursed, and then threw down a sentence, "Take good care of Lord Tong."

After saying that, he flew away.

All the guards in the yard ran to protect Lord Tong.

Ah Qi had already come down from the big tree and was lying on the high wall of the courtyard.

His small body, dressed in gray-green clothes, blends in with the gray wall and cannot be seen unless you look closely.

He pulled the slingshot tight in his hand.

He just faked them just now. As long as Tong Jianfang turned around and walked towards him, he would shoot his eyes out...

Ji Xiaobei poked his head out from behind the rockery and was really shocked.

Aqi is a really brave kid.

He doesn't even have enough life to kill the minister.

Before he could explain his relationship with Lord Tong, he was probably stabbed to pieces.

Ji Xiaobei was secretly worried and extremely anxious.

She looked around, looking for Aqi's shadow.

Suddenly, a dark shadow moved towards the high wall...

Ji Xiaobei secretly cried out in dismay.

Looking closely, it was He Ye!

When he looked again, He Ye had already put the knife to Aqi's neck.

Ji Xiaobei ran over in a flash...

When the guards saw a huge monster rushing out, they didn't dare to rush forward, thus narrowing the encirclement of Lord Tong.

More than a dozen shining swords were pointed at Ji Xiaobei.

Ji Xiaobei rushed past them, and before the guards could take any action, Ji Xiaobei had disappeared.

"Don't touch him!" Ji Xiaobei shouted.

He Ye pinched Aqi's neck, and the sharp blade had cut into his skin, oozing blood.

Aqi's face turned pale with fright and he looked at He Ye pleadingly.

No matter who it is, if they disturb Lord Tong, they will die.

He Ye turned his head with a serious expression, and was shocked to see Ji Xiaobei rushing towards him.

She, she came at a really bad time!

"What are you doing here?" He Ye's voice was cold.

Ji Xiaobei didn't waste time talking to him and grabbed the knife in He Ye's hand...

He Ye felt that the strength in his hands was not enough and he really couldn't beat this woman, but he must not lose!

He Ye loosened his grip and Ji Xiaobei snatched the knife away.

"Master He, Ah Qi has his own reasons. Master Tong, Master Tong is his father. How could a son kill his father? Don't you agree?"

He Ye pinched Aqi's hand and couldn't help but loosen it. Aqi broke free and hid behind Ji Xiaobei.

Aqi wondered: How does she know Tong Jianfang is my father? I never told her.

Ji Xiaobei: I was just talking nonsense, if I was wrong, don’t mind it!

He Ye glanced at the guards who gathered around him and said loudly: "This is all a misunderstanding. Escort Master Tong back to his room to rest!"

The guard retreated.

Ji Xiaobei was a little embarrassed. He patted Aqi on the head and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Sister, I'm fine!" Aqi said with his head down.

He felt that he had gotten into trouble and almost lost his life.

If killing Tong Jianfang would cost him his life, he would rather give up and never come to Anzhou or go to the capital. The world is so big, there must be a place for him to stay.

"Who is he?" He Ye asked coldly.

"He is my brother. If you let him go, I will owe you a favor!" said Ji Xiaobei.

"It's easy for me to let him go, but how can I explain this to Minister Tong?"

He Ye was in a dilemma.

"Sister, don't worry!" Aqi straightened his chest, "I'll go see him!"

"No!" Ji Xiaobei refused coldly, "Assassinating the Minister is a capital crime, and it might even implicate your ancestors for eight generations!"

Ah Qi was not afraid, but laughed: "It would be better if I get implicated. It would be best if my father is executed!"

Ji Xiaobei and He Ye were both stunned.

Ji Xiaobei: "You don't care about your father's life that much?"
