Picked Up A Husband For Farming - Chapter 305

305 Brother Is Not Dead

“What War God? I order you guys to kill him immediately!” Yi Lu’er covered her bloody face as she roared fiercely. If her face was ruined, none of these people would get off scot-free.

In the end, no one dared to move. With the War God’s reputation, even if their Regent had personally ordered them…

“Send the princess back to the palace!” Ji Jing shouted in a low voice and looked anxiously at Qiao Yanhui, who had already walked away.

“Ji Jing, if you dare to disobey my orders, I will definitely…” Before she could finish speaking, Ji Jing tied her up with the whip and shouted, “Hurry up. If you guys delay the treatment, can you bear the responsibility?”

!!
The other guards hurriedly carried Yi Lu’er and ran towards the palace. It was probably unprecedented for a princess of a country to fall into this state.

“Little Hui, I think that guard is not as simple as he seems.” Xu Qing thought of Ji Jing. That person’s martial arts skills seemed extremely high. How could he be a bodyguard for that kind of woman?

Qiao Yanhui nodded in agreement. That person’s martial arts skills were probably on par with that of Qiao Jun and the others. Moreover, the way Ji Jing looked at him just now was a little strange… However, Qiao Yanhui had a feeling that that person would come looking for him again.

As expected, while Qiao Yanhui and the others were eating in the restaurant, Ji Jing arrived.

“Young Master, I finally have the chance to see you!” Ji Jing’s face was filled with excitement as he rushed forward and knelt in front of Qiao Yanhui.

Xu Qing and the three children watched quietly in shock.

Qiao Yanhui pursed his lips and looked at Ji Jing calmly while waiting for his next words.

In the end, Xu Qing found out that Ji Jing was Qiao Yanhui’s mother’s personal guard. Strictly speaking, they were childhood sweethearts.

Ji Jing was the son of an elder of the Ji family and could have had a more powerful position. However, because he had liked Ji Qing since he was young, he became Ji Qing’s guard. However, Ji Qing already had Uncle Yu protecting her back then, so Ji Jing could only be a low-ranking guard. How could Ji Jing’s father tolerate this? He was so angry that he chased Ji Jing out of the house, but Ji Jing continued to be Ji Qing’s guard very happily.

Back then, when Ji Qing escaped from the Ji family, Ji Jing also helped. However, he was captured and punished on Ji Qing’s behalf. When he escaped again, he was severely injured and found his way to the New Heavenly Kingdom. In order to hide his identity and recuperate, he became Princess Yi Lu’er’s guard.

Of course, he had been asking about Ji Qing all these years. He knew that she had been killed by Ao Heng. If not for the fact that Ji Qing had three children, he might have committed suicide already. All these years, he had been constantly searching for news of Ji Qing’s other children. Although he was in New Heavenly Kingdom, he had successfully established an intelligence network in the Ancient Kingdom.

“Young Master, I’m sure your brother isn’t dead. Back then, that dead baby didn’t look like he was born prematurely at all. In fact, his condition was much better than yours. Later on, I asked my spy to follow this clue and investigate. However, all the clues disappeared when they reached the empress of the Ancient Kingdom, Lin Shu! I think Lin Shu’s identity is very fishy. The faction behind her is somewhat similar to the Ji family!” Ji Jing said with certainty.

Xu Qing was also shocked. Back then, Qiao Yanhui and the others didn’t suspect the identity of their dead brother, so they didn’t investigate from this point. Therefore, they had missed out on too many clues.

“As for Young Master’s sister, after she was carried away by a mysterious person, there was no more news.” Ji Jing’s expression was gloomy. Back then, he really wanted to overthrow the royal family of the Ancient Kingdom. However, on the one hand, he had to hide his identity and pay attention to Lin Shu’s faction, so his hands were tied.

After a moment of silence, Qiao Yanhui suddenly said with an unreadable expression, “Back then, my mother was falsely accused of having an affair. Was that man you?”

Ji Jing was stunned for a moment before he smiled bitterly. “Young Master, you’re so smart. Back then, when I found out that Ao Heng mistreated her, I risked my life to bring her away, but she was unwilling. I could only leave some people to protect her. However, those people were later executed…” Ji Jing wanted to hide Ji Qing’s identity, so he didn’t stay by Ji Qing’s side. Otherwise, how could Ji Qing have stayed in the Ancient Kingdom for so long? Even if she had the Qiao family’s surname, it wasn’t impossible for the Ji family to find her.

“Young Master, can I stay by your side in the future?” Ji Jing looked at Qiao Yanhui with a complicated expression. This was the child of the person he loved deeply.

“Have you settled the New Heavenly Kingdom’s princess?” Qiao Yanhui asked calmly.

“I can leave at any time.” Ji Jing didn’t take Yi Lu’er seriously at all.

Ji Jing originally thought that he could stay by Qiao Yanhui’s side just like that, but Qiao Yanhui said, “Let’s talk after you defeat the two of them.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Jun and Qiao Sheng walked out.

Ji Jing was stunned. One against two?
