The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 130 Knock on the door

Ji Ziyuin was surprised by the contact between Ji Zichu and Shen Wen. He couldn't help but ask a few more questions about them. Zichu only said that he appreciated Shen Wen's talent in solving cases and only talked about how he gave Shen Wen the token.

After Ji Ziyin came out from the third disciple Chu, he sent someone to the Shen Mansion to find a servant to inquire about the news. The servant was very familiar with the Shen Mansion. He was coaxed to death at the wine table and was very happy. He did not hide anything about Shen Wen and told everything that happened to the Seventeenth Master Shen in the past few days.

Naturally, it would mention that Shen Wen was beaten and bedridden. Ji Ziyan became nervous when he heard it. He didn't listen to what happened next. He picked up the big knife on the table and left.

After leaving the restaurant and getting on the horse, he rushed to the Shen Mansion. When he arrived at the gate, he did not even pull the reins and the horse kicked the gate directly. It happened that the gatekeeper opened the door a little and came out to check what was going on. He saw a pair of horse hooves kicking at his head. Fortunately, he dodged quickly and escaped with his life, but the gate was kicked in pieces.

The gate of the Shen family was smashed, which was a big deal for the Shen family. It was immediately heard by several masters of the Shen family. The first one to come was the eldest master Shen.

Master Shen pointed at Ji Ziyin and cursed angrily, "Ji Ziyin, you bastard, you actually broke down the front door of my house. How lawless are you, or do you think my family is so weak that they can be bullied? I'm telling you! I'm going to the palace to file a complaint and severely denounce your Ji family in front of the emperor."

Ji Ziyin glanced at Master Shen while sitting on his horse, and slowly pulled the knife out of the scabbard in his hand. He looked at his shining precious knife and said, "Master Shen, what you said is wrong. It is your family that has no respect for the law. It was your Shen family that made the mistake first, and then my General of the Slit Mountain Tiger Guard was rude. Master Shen! The court has a rule that all the noble sons of the Duke and Viscount of Daju must be selected at a specified age to go to my Slit Mountain military camp for training. No one in your family has reported so far. I am here for this matter. Master Shen, which of your descendants are going to follow me to serve the court?"

When Master Shen heard this, he became even angrier. How could his family not send his descendants to serve in the army?

Master Shen raised his beard angrily and said, "Master Ji, you remembered it wrongly. My family has sent people to serve as soldiers in Slit Mountain. Master Ji, you should send someone to find out in advance before looking for trouble. My cousin Shen Shufeng is a vanguard officer in the Leopard Camp of Slit Mountain."

Ji Zisun curled his lips and laughed, "Shen Shufeng, the vanguard officer of the Leopard Battalion, you, Lord Shen, still have the nerve to say that. How can Shen Shufeng be considered a descendant of the royal family of your Lord Shen's mansion? He only has the same surname as your Shen family, and in terms of relationship, he is not even a fifth-degree relative. You are using a nephew who is as distant as possible to make up the number. This is called fooling the court, and it is a crime of deceiving the emperor."

Master Shen was exposed without blushing. He said, "The court has a rule that all the sons of dukes must send one person to the Slit Mountain to serve as a soldier. However, it also stipulates that if there are sons of dukes who have fought at the border, they do not need to go to the Slit Mountain for training. My nephew Shen Yifeng is a third-rank military officer who went to the border to fight. He meets the requirements stipulated by the court, so naturally there is no need for other sons and nephews to serve as soldiers in your place."

Ji Ziyin waved the sword in his hand, and suddenly pointed it at Master Shen and said, "No! How can the border be compared with the Slit Mountain? The Slit Mountain is a general's tomb. I have found that all the military families have one or two generals who died there. How can your family escape this disaster? Either your family sends another son or nephew to follow me, or... ask Shen Yifeng to take my seat. I want to see if the Slit Mountain General's Tomb will not accept your family's heroic soul."

After these words were spoken, Master Shen was so frightened that his face turned pale.

Before he could respond, Master Shen Qi came up behind him and said, "Fuck the general's tomb or not. My family is originally a civil servant family. Even if we have a military general who kills the enemy, so what? Don't act arrogantly in my family. Narrow Slit Mountain only accepts the nephews and nieces of your general family, but it doesn't get our turn as a scholar. I advise you to give up this vicious idea."

Wherever the Seventh Master appears, he is always followed by a few underworld aides. Today is no exception, with two older and two younger ones.

Ji Ziyan ignored the Seventh Master who was cursing and just turned his head to look closely at the two older knights behind him.

The two knights looked at each other and exchanged glances. After a moment, they came out and greeted Ji Ziyin.

You can't not show courtesy!

The Ji family has been a military family for generations, and their reputation predates the founding emperor of the Daju Dynasty. The first generation of military generals of the Ji family also shined in the martial arts world at that time, and their stories are still widely known in the martial arts world today. In addition, the Ji family in this area, the eldest son of the Ji family became famous in a battle against the southern border. It is said that the battle was extremely tragic and caused quite a stir in the southern martial arts world. Later, it spread to the Central Plains and the north and south of the Yangtze River. The reputation of the eldest son of the Ji family became a legend that people in the martial arts world envied and respected.

The second master and his wife of the Ji family were called "Second Grandma". They were a couple of chivalrous men who had traveled the world for many years. Who didn't know them? And Chu Yanqiu, the martial arts master who was trained by the Xiliang City Master, had defeated all the martial arts masters in the world at the age of fifteen. He was a figure that could not be ignored by a small sect like theirs.

The two men introduced themselves, "He Ying from the Flying Sword Sect of Hebi Prefecture and Hu Zhen from the Double Sword Sect of Langya Prefecture greet General Ji."

Ji Ziyin then said, "They are two people who know how to behave."

The Seventh Master was angry. He said to the general, "Why are you being polite to him? He came here to cause trouble, but you are trying to turn your elbow out. Humph!"

This attitude made both of them blush and feel very embarrassed.

Ji Ziyin jumped off his horse, stabbed his knife into the ground, and stood with his horse and sword in hand, saying to Master Shen: "Master Shen, this person is a guest, whether he is friendly or looking for trouble, you must not forget the integrity of your family of etiquette, right? This general is tired, bring me a chair to sit on."

Master Shen was against Ji Ziyan and his gang of military ruffians. The only advantage he had over them was his different code of etiquette. When Ji Ziyan mentioned the etiquette, he felt a little relieved. He waved his hand to call the butler and ordered the butler to bring a chair over for General Ji.

Master Shen then got ready to engage in a verbal battle with General Ji.

Master Shen said, "General Ji, you and I are both officials in the same court. Regardless of the rank of our officials, you arrogantly kicked my door to pieces. This is against the law, you know? I can go to the palace to report you at any time. General Ji, have you thought about the consequences?"

Ji Ziyin raised his eyebrows and said, "This door is rotten. I never think about the consequences of what I do. Besides, I didn't mean to provoke your family. It was the horse under my crotch that got angry. It hasn't trampled corpses on the battlefield for a long time. It was really frustrated. It probably thought your door was a chariot or shield for the enemy. Lord Shen, you are magnanimous. Can you be more understanding of this beast with military merits?"

When Master Shen heard this, he almost got angry.

The Seventh Master snorted in frustration and said, "Stop talking nonsense here. It's obvious that you, the master, deliberately provoked my family, but you pushed the blame on that beast. Mr. Ji, I thought you were a man of integrity, but I didn't expect you to be a villain hiding behind a beast. Since you're trying to shirk responsibility, how about I ride my horse to kick your door down someday?"

Ji Ziyin relaxed his eyebrows and said, "Please go ahead."

Such an attitude made the Seventh Master even more frustrated.

He waved his hand and ordered the people behind him, "Kick him out."

The two sides were arguing to this point, but Ji Ziyan's deputy general just ran over to greet Ji Ziyan and wait for orders.

Ji Ziyin looked at the Seventh Master and the martial arts masters behind him and said with a smile: "Did you see that? They are trying to use their numbers to drive me out. Don't just stand there and watch. Go... go to the military camp and bring out all our people. It's a good opportunity to train them."

The deputy general was stunned when he heard this, and immediately took the order to return to the barracks to mobilize troops.

Fortunately, he was stopped by Ji Zichu, the third son of the Ji family, who was coming towards him.

Ji Zichu was polite. After greeting the eldest and seventh masters of Shen, he said, "It was for no reason that my brother came to the Shen Mansion to cause trouble. The two Lords Shen didn't know that a group of lunatics in Shunfa Casino actually used my token to pretend to be officials of the government office and defrauded the officers of the Slit Mountain military camp! They are really abominable. Not only did they drain the wealth of those officers, but they also designed them to sign high-interest loans that they could not repay in their lifetime. You also know that if the high-interest loans cannot be repaid when they are due, they will kill people to pay off the debts. Isn't this intentional harm to the officers and soldiers of Slit Mountain? My eldest brother was very indignant when he heard this. The two Lords Shen, do you know which lunatic was the one who used my token to commit crimes?"

Master Shen Da and Master Shen Wu stared at each other and shook their heads, "I don't know."

Ji Zichu said: "He is a servant of your Shen family, and a servant of a house-born child. Do you know what Wu Shuangren's people call Wu Er?"

The Shen family has a large population, so naturally there are many servants. Master Shen frowned and thought for a long time, but he couldn't think of which family or which servant had this name. Master Shen Wu moved his ears. Although he couldn't remember it for a moment, he felt that this person sounded familiar.

Ji Zichu did not ask any more questions. He turned around and told the accompanying constable, "Come here, find the family members that the servant has confessed to, so that the two Lords Shen can identify them clearly."

Those detectives were also extremely smart and had already found out which members of the Shen family were the accomplices. Soon they brought a few maids to be shown to the two Master Shens.

Among them were naturally Mrs. Shi and the few old women who had tricked and robbed Shen Wen of his token.

Wife Shi was trembling like a sieve. She knelt on the ground and said, "Master, spare me! I didn't know that the token was real! I... I thought it was... something that the Seventeenth Master got from a middleman. He was just a scammer... He threw it into the basket after getting it. I didn't know that my nephew would pick it up and use the token as a fraud."

Master Shen was terrified when he heard this. He looked straight at Mrs. Shi and asked, "What token? What does it have to do with the Seventeenth Master? You must explain it clearly, without missing a single word."
