Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

"Oh, so many people?"

"Mom, it's all your fault. You're always dragging your feet."

"Mom, sister, look, they all brought stools. Do you want me to go home and get two stools?"

"Okay!"

"Wait," the woman stopped her son and continued to ask, "When will that Ji De appear?"

"About midnight?"

"It's so late! No, hurry up and come home with me. It's not right for a grown woman to not go home and rest in the middle of the night!"

"Hey, hey, hey, Auntie, you can't say that." The young man next to him interrupted, "Where are my two younger sisters? With our whole family coming here, what can go wrong?"

"Sister-in-law, I see your daughter is old enough to get married, why don't you take this opportunity to see her?"

The woman's eyes widened, and her gaze couldn't help but fall on the two girls behind her who were about the same age as her daughter. She was so shocked that her mouth opened slightly, but she couldn't say a word.

She still felt that she should look for someone she knew well and just meet him on the street. Her daughter would not be so cheap.

However, what she didn't know was that there were quite a few families who came out tonight to see each other, but most of them had their parents already made arrangements and all they needed was a chance to see each other, so they simply took advantage of tonight to come out to see each other.

There are also some engaged young people who take this opportunity to come out together to cultivate their relationship. Of course, they are accompanied by their families and will not be left alone.

It's no wonder that they came out to play and see each other. In order to capture Ji De, the Ministry of Justice, Jingzhao Prefecture and the capital garrison were all dispatched to prevent Ji De from escaping under the cover of night. Large lanterns were hung on the streets around all the mansions on the list, and every street was illuminated.

The capital city tonight is as lively as it is during New Year's Day. The main streets are crowded with people watching the fun. Vendors have started setting up stalls in the alleys to sell food, so the small streets are also illuminated by the lanterns lit by the small food stalls. Almost all the streets and alleys in the capital city are lit up.

There is food and entertainment, but except for the lack of music, this lively night market has attracted many people who are not very interested in doing good deeds to go out.

Many gambling houses have opened betting on the success or failure of Ji De's action tonight, with the stakes at one to one, which shows that Ji De's strength is obvious to everyone.

Unlike the common people who were leisurely watching the excitement, some of the parties involved quickly moved all the valuables in their homes into the secret room. Those who did not have a secret room immediately packed the things and temporarily buried them in the ground. Some asked their family members to take most of the money and leave home during the day. Some people concentrated the money and guarded it heavily. Some people hid the things in different places, under the bed, under the table, in the flower pots... The main point was to gamble on accumulating virtue so that they would not have time to find everything!

At this time, Ji De, who was being remembered by everyone, was busy working right under their noses.

Phew - this is really a big deal, but it's really tiring.

They swore that they would never do it on such a large scale again because they suffered a huge loss.

Feng An had to buy stacks of various talisman papers, which made him too busy to handle it alone and he had to ask others for help.

In order to confirm everyone's actions, insect tracking drones were deployed in large numbers, and Luo Shan was almost targeted by the authorities. At the same time, she became a well-known fat sheep in the black market.

Now they are preparing for the live broadcast projection at Jing'an Marquis Mansion to ensure that Ji De's magnificent performance tonight is foolproof.

On the emperor and the imperial teacher's side, the dragon guards would come back every once in a while to report on the situation. The result was always the same: no trace of Ji De was found.

The emperor and the imperial teacher were both silent. The quieter the other party was, the more likely it was that he had either escaped or had the confidence. They believed it was the latter.
