Chapter 127: Refusal
"Who are you going to be the master for?"
Princess Jinyang immediately relaxed when she heard Cheng Ping'an's words, and glared at Cheng Ping'an with a smile.
Cheng Ping'an also grinned: "Be the master of that villain, how about it, I broke this ghost for you today, how can you thank me?" ”
"Do whatever you say." Princess Jinyang smiled and hung her head, and two blushes rose on her face.
Although she has a little bit of a bad temperament, but her appearance is also very good, this shyness and cowardice to Cheng Ping'an's heart is also soft, and thinking that the Empress Dowager Gao is getting worse and worse now, Princess Jinyang is about to lose her mother, and she can't help but feel pity for her when the time comes.
Cheng Ping'an reached out and stroked the dark circles under Princess Jinyang's eyes that she had recently made because of poor rest, and pulled her towards the door, when she walked through a wall, Cheng Ping'an pointed to a small hole in the wall and called a little eunuch: "Plug that hole." ”
Immediately, several people came and plugged the hole in the wall.
After that, Cheng Ping'an looked around again and cut off some of the branches and leaves of several trees, so that when he pulled Princess Jinyang back to the house to look, the ghost was indeed gone.
Princess Jinyang seemed to be overjoyed when she saw something, praised Cheng Ping'an for a while, and asked him what was going on.
Cheng Ping'an smiled proudly, explained the principle of small hole imaging to Princess Jinyang, and took pieces of paper candles and other things to demonstrate several times, so that Princess Jinyang could understand.
Subsequently, Princess Jinyang took Cheng Ping'an to Qingning Palace and broke the ghost shadow according to this method.
After getting all this done, Cheng Ping'an went out of the palace. Princess Jinyang took things to the Empress Dowager Gao and told the Empress Dowager Gao in detail.
Although Empress Dowager Gao is a little sick now, she still has a sober time, as soon as she heard the words of Princess Jinyang, she immediately knew that someone was calculating their mother and daughter, and immediately became furious, and ordered someone to find Emperor Qingfeng to inquire.
It didn't take long for Emperor Qingfeng to come, and Emperor Qingfeng was a little impatient when Empress Dowager Gao pointed at him and scolded him, but he still made a respectful look. Wait for the Empress Dowager Gao to finish scolding. Emperor Qingfeng spread his hands: "What kind of person I am and want to know the queen mother, if I calculate the queen mother, where will I use such villain tricks." ”
And Ji Songxian, who was scolded as a villain, was reading the letter at home.
But there was a lot of snow on the way, and Cheng Huaijin couldn't return to Beijing for a while. wrote a letter to Ji Songxian and brought it back. The letter said that he was afraid that he would have to delay for a few days. asked Ji Songxian not to worry, and said that if it is cold today, it will be cold every day. Tell Ji Songxian to pay attention to keeping warm, the stove in the house must be lit, and he must wear thicker when he goes out.
There are a lot of chattering words like this, which were originally a little annoying, but Ji Songxian felt extra warm when he saw it, and he smiled very beautifully.
After reading the letter, Ji Songxian folded the letter and put it in the box on the dressing table, there were already several letters in it, all of which were written by Cheng Huaijin to her, and Ji Songxian kept each one very well.
After putting it away, Ji Songxian also replied with a letter, and the letter didn't say much, just said that the road was not easy to walk slowly, and it was not very important, so Cheng Huaijin didn't have to rush back, in addition, he also told Cheng Huaijin to pay attention to keeping warm, and not to freeze or something.
After writing the letter, Ji Songxian thought for a while, and then wrapped a thick cotton robe and a sable fur wrapped in bean-green wrapping, ready to send it with the letter.
Just got ready, before Ji Songxian got up, a little girl in Ji Yi's house came over and said with a smile: "Just now, the old Chengguo Gong came to visit and talked to the master about something, and said that he wanted to see the girl, and the master asked the slave to call the girl over." ”
Ji Songxian frowned, a little puzzled, Lao Chengguo is old and a man, she is a woman in the house is not easy to meet, why did her father call her over?
Although she didn't understand, Ji Songxian also knew that Ji Yi would not harm her, so she followed the little girl to the study.
Before entering the door, I could hear Ji Yi's voice in the room, Ji Yi has always spoken gently at home, and he usually doesn't lose his temper, but this son, Ji Songxian obviously heard a little bit of fireworks from his words: "I can't do what you said, how to do it depends on the meaning of the children, now that the boy is not here, is it a little bad for you to come to the door?" ”
When Ji Songxian heard this, his heart chuckled for a moment, and he couldn't help but have a little bad premonition.
She stood at the door and whispered, "Father, daughter, please meet." ”
Although Ji Songxian is very casual at home, this is also in line with the character of the Ji family, but there are outsiders, Ji Songxian must abide by etiquette, and don't want to leave the impression that he doesn't know how to be polite, and the most important thing is that she is a person who has died once, and she doesn't care about the opinions of the world, but she has to maintain the dignity of the Ji family.
Ji Songxian is reluctant to ask people to say that Ji Yi can't teach children, and the children he teaches are things that know how to respect the elders and the young, and sure enough, he is from a poor family, and he can't compare with the family.
She respects Ji Yi the most, and she will not do anything that is unfavorable to Ji Yi.
"Come in." Ji Yi sat high in the house and talked to Cheng Lao Guogong, originally angry, but when she heard Ji Songxian's voice, she knew that she deliberately acted like this, firstly, to show respect for herself, and secondly, to express that she was open-minded, not the person who eavesdropped behind her back.
Ji Yi thought about it for a while and understood why Ji Songxian was doing this, and he was also relieved in his heart, and his anger suddenly dissipated, and he shouted to Ji Songxian to come in.
Ji Songxian lowered his head and entered the door, first greeted Ji Yi, and then stood aside very obediently and listened to Hou Jiyi's instructions.
Cheng Lao Guogong listened to Ji Songxian's words when he didn't enter the door, thinking that this girl must be an excellent one, and now when he enters the door, he sees that her words and deeds are full of etiquette rules, plus she looks beautiful, but she doesn't mean to be a fox at all, standing there only makes people feel dignified and atmospheric, and she can't help but take a fancy to her.
He smiled: "Ling Yuan is dignified and elegant, but she has the style of a lady of a family, and Ji Xiang has taught her well." ”
Ji Yi smiled and waved her hand: "Where do I have the kung fu to teach her, it was all taught by her mother." ”
Although Cheng Lao Guogong was a little surprised, he still smiled and said, "Mrs. Ji will teach her children." ”
Afterwards, Cheng Lao Guogong beckoned to Ji Songxian: "Good boy, come and tell me to take a look at this old man." ”
Ji Songxian stepped forward slowly and gave a slight salute to Cheng Laoguogong: "Hello." ”
Cheng Lao Guogong nodded and smiled: "Okay, good boy, it's hard for you to be so knowledgeable at a young age, I'm afraid you will have great achievements in the future." ”
Ji Songxian pursed her lips and smiled but didn't reply, but it showed that she was more dignified.
Cheng Lao Guogong became more and more satisfied, he took out a rosewood box from his sleeve, handed it to Ji Songxian, and said lovingly: "This is a set of noodles left by my old wife, although I am afraid that it is not fashionable now, but the thing is a good thing, I will give it to you today." ”
Ji Songxian became more and more suspicious, and he was slightly blessed: "This is the thought left by the old lady, not to mention what the things are, just because the old lady left them, it is too valuable, I can't accept it." ”
She said that she didn't dare to accept it, but said that she couldn't accept it, to show that she was not the one who hadn't seen good things, and the Ji family was not poor, but she couldn't accept such a heavy heart.
The words were extremely mellow, reasonable, and not self-deprecating, Cheng Guogong smiled even brighter when he heard it: "Take it." ”
Seeing that Ji Songxian didn't dare to stretch out his hand, he said: "Speaking of which, you still have to call me grandfather, you and Huai Jin are engaged, but I'm afraid I don't know, Huai Jin was originally my son-in-law of the Chengguo Mansion, but because he was young and frail, he was taken to the mountains to practice, and he has been gone for many years, and I also got the letter, but Huai Jin is not in Jinling, and I can't recognize my grandfather, I can't help but regret it in my heart, if you accept this set of faces, even if you inherit your grandmother's affection......"
Ji Songxian became more and more unable to accept it.
She smiled slightly: "I really don't know about this." ”
She thought in her heart, it's strange if she doesn't know, Cheng Huaijin told her a long time ago, but she also said that she would not recognize the relatives of the Chengguo Mansion, and she didn't want to find a few more ancestors for herself, plus she only hated the Chengguo Mansion, so she was even more unwilling to get close to the people of the Chengguo Mansion.
Seeing that Cheng Lao Guogong's face was a little bad, Ji Songxian smiled more and more in his heart, but said solemnly: "I haven't met Commander Cheng a few times, and I don't know his name, as for his life experience, I don't know even more, but His Majesty gave me a marriage, I think that Your Majesty's eyes are like a torch, this marriage must be suitable, and I don't think about it anymore, now that you have told me about the life experience of the Commander Cheng, I can't recognize you, and I can't accept this gift." ”
Ji Songxian said this and peeked at Ji Yi, seeing Ji Yi smiling at the corner of his mouth, stroking his beard and nodding, his heart became more and more settled: "First, you said that it was the grandfather of the Cheng commander, this point needs to be confirmed by the Cheng commander, I am a backhouse woman, and I can't cross him to be the master, and second, I and the Cheng commander are just married, and they have not yet married. If I accept it, if the Duchess of Chengguo knows, it will be a little different, and I can't accept these three points. ”
After Ji Songxian and his party finished speaking, seeing that Cheng Lao Guogong's face became more and more relaxed, he took a deep breath and was a blessing: "If you see me just for this, then the words have been finished, and I can't stay for a long time, so I will leave." ”
She saluted Ji Yi again: "Father, my daughter retires." ”
Ji Yi waved his hand: "Go ahead." ”
After Ji Songxian left, Ji Yi smiled and said to Cheng Laoguo: "Don't mind, I'm busy with business and don't have time to discipline her, she has always been taught by my wife, she is very lonely, and she is outspoken and dares to say anything, if there is anything disrespectful, I hope Haihan." ”
Cheng Lao Guogong stroked his beard and smiled: "Don't blame, don't mind, how can you mind, Ji Xiang, this girl teaches well, teaches well, speaking of which, I was reckless, I didn't think so much, but this child is not greedy, not boring, and not afraid of humility, really has a bearing, no wonder His Majesty wants to recognize her as a righteous sister."
