Chapter 120: The Ji Family Visits
This meal was enjoyed by the guests and hosts.
Shen Che got the news he wanted and left in style.
Ji Qing also breathed a sigh of relief because he had completed his parents' explanation, and asked angrily, "Mother will come over tomorrow?" ”
Huanzhu nodded immediately when he heard this, "The next person sent a message to say that today's lady and master went to the literary hall, and tomorrow I will come to the door to discuss the marriage date with the little prince." ”
Ji Qing was stunned.
Back then, the Shen family was ruined, all the rebels left, and the Ji family was also a member of the traitors.
originally thought that this time, the Shen family would be extremely disgusted with her and reject her.
Unexpectedly, Shen Luo agreed to this marriage, and Shen Che had no ill feelings towards her, just didn't care.
She has only been in the capital for a few days, and she has come to the stage of the engagement period.
It was so fast, so fast that she couldn't think of a way to resist.
The late autumn night is steep, blowing up the season of the gods. She shrunk back, her eyelashes raised and fluttered slightly, her voice as gentle and obedient as ever.
"Returning the pearl, I'm tired."
Early the next morning.
As soon as Shen Che walked out of the back room, he saw Ah Yi coming over, "Childe, the people from the Ji family came to the door and waited in the front hall." ”
Shen Che raised his eyebrows lightly, lowered his head and buttoned the cufflink of his right hand, and asked, "Do you have eyebrows for the things you checked?" ”
"It's been checked!"
Ah Yi's face was slightly solemn, "The Ji family is so anxious to marry, because the people of the three princes went to West Wind City, the last hunting ground, the three princes suffered a big loss in our hands, and now they are short of money and people, so they go to West Wind City to fight the autumn wind." ”
Shen Che squinted and chuckled, "The Ji family can't bear it, and you want to find a backer?" ”
"Yes."
Ah Yi also had a smile on his face, "Son, the news of your great achievements reached West Wind City, and the people of the Ji family immediately rushed to the capital, and sent people to secretly spread the news, your marriage contract with the daughter of the Ji family is now known to everyone in the capital, and they all say that you are an infatuated species." ”
The Ji family betrayed the Zhenwang Mansion back then, and they also stabbed them in the back, many people know about it. Now that Shen Che has actually abandoned his previous suspicions, he is still going to marry the daughter of the Ji family, what is this not infatuation?
Ah Yi thought of the rumors he heard, and he was amused in his heart, but when he looked up, he caught a glimpse of his master's suddenly cold face, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.
It was fine just now, what's going on?
"The whole city knows? When was this? ”
Shen Che's voice was so cold that Ah Yi's heart was cold, and he hurriedly responded, "It's just the last two days." ”
"What about Dingbei Hou Mansion?"
When Shen Che asked this, Ah Yi, who was confused, suddenly looked uneasy, and said hesitantly: "Miss Lu has been busy with the Chamber of Commerce recently, and she has no intention of gossiping, probably ...... Don't know, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, Ah Yi saw Shen Che's face
Suddenly it was loosened, and then it became darker.
Maybe I've seen a lot recently, and Ah Yi inexplicably understands what Childe is thinking at the moment.
I don't know if it's a good thing, but if Miss Lu doesn't care about Childe, it's not a good thing for Childe, hiss......
Childe is in a bad mood, and they are the ones who suffer!
"Childe, don't worry! Miss Lu must know! ”
Ah Yi was in a hurry, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Didn't Dingbei Hou say that day that he wanted to take Miss Lu to visit Mengzhen Building in person?" When the time comes, you will personally tell Miss Lu to listen, and Miss Lu will definitely forgive you. ”
Ah Yi said this, and suddenly found that the air conditioning pressure in the room had returned to normal, and he was relieved.
Childe has created such a big foundation as Mengzhenlou in just ten years, and there are many ways to train his subordinates.
It's hard to believe that he is not much older than Shen Che, and he can figure out this thought, all relying on the desire to survive.
"Let's go."
Shen Che pressed his eyebrows, the trace of expectation in his eyes suddenly faded, he coughed lightly, brushed his sleeves and stepped out of the yard, Ah Yi immediately followed.
Not long after, Shen Che came to the front hall, dressed in a dark robe, with a long and tall body, a condensed face, and an outstanding temperament.
The head of the Ji family, who was drinking tea, saw the cold young man coming from outside, and suddenly remembered the peerless demeanor of the town king when he was young, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he got up to greet him.
"Shen Xian's nephew is really a talent! Brother Shen is really a blessing, not only is his daughter so beautiful and fragrant, but his son is also so good, not only is he both civil and military, but he can make contributions to the court at a young age, uncle, I am really ashamed! It is a good blessing for her to be your wife for her eight lifetimes! ”
Ji Xu praised Shen Che this time, ordinary young people have long been unable to find the north, Shen Che always smiled lightly, his mood was not obvious, Mrs. Ji, who was sitting on the side, liked it more and more, and took Ji Qing's little hand and whispered: "Look at it, Shen Che is talented and beautiful, and he is the future king of the town, what else do you not want?" ”
Ji Qing nodded with difficulty, but his eyes were empty.
Ever since she beat her father and began to praise Shen Che, she was so ashamed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into.
My father's flattering appearance is so embarrassing!
"Uncle?"
The corners of Shen Che's mouth twitched, he sat down in front of Ji Xu, raised his head and smiled: "The head of the Ji family also knows shame? Could it be that you are ashamed of the past twelve years ago? ”
Ji Xuyan's face changed slightly when he heard this, and then he smiled: "Virtuous nephew, what happened back then, my Ji family was not kind. But that's all in the past, why should the virtuous nephew hold on to the past? Uncle came over today, just to discuss the marriage date of your nephew and your lover......"
Halfway through Ji Xu's words, he saw Shen Che raise his hand to stop it, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Wedding date? Why doesn't this king remember such a thing? ”
"Virtuous nephew!"
Ji Xu's face finally changed completely, and he grabbed the chair at hand, "The marriage contract between the Shen family and my Ji family was ...... fifteen years ago."
"Seven years ago, the Ji family moved out of the capital."
Shen Che interrupted him again, his smile was faint, but it made Ji Xu's heart chill, he pointed to his temple, "The humiliation of the Ji family's ruined marriage, this king still remembers it clearly to this day, didn't the head of the Ji family deceive me for being young and not remembering?" At that time, the king was eight years old, not eight months. ”
Seeing that Shen Che was so ruthless, Ji Xu's face turned cold, and he snorted: "Little prince, although this marriage was not counted back then, but yesterday your sister opened the golden mouth and promised to let her lover pass through the door, and the eldest sister is the mother, you have no reason to refuse." ”
"Haha......"
Shen Che laughed out loud, and Ji Xu was uncomfortable with a sarcastic smile, "When... Is it her turn to call the shots in my town's palace? Shen Luo didn't even return home, Master Ji, do you really think that she can still mobilize the power of the Zhenwang Mansion? ”
Ji Xuyan's pupils shrank suddenly, and the blood all over his body seemed to be frozen by this sentence, and his thoughts were instantly confused.
Didn't you say that the Shen family's sisters and brothers depend on each other for their lives, and their relationship is very good?
How can you listen to Shen Che's meaning, not only do the two not have much affection between them, but they are still enemies who attack and exclude each other? Then he went to visit Shen Luo yesterday, didn't he break ground on Tai Sui's head?!
A bunch of wastes who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures, where did they buy the information? Killed!
"Master Ji, why don't you speak?"
Shen Che's voice had a teasing smile.
Ji Xu's scalp was numb for a while, and he said with a smile: "It's the official who has neglected." If you don't want to, this marriage is over! However, the lower official dared to ask, why did the little prince go to the banquet last night? It's a misunderstanding, isn't it? ”
Ji Qing, who was sitting on the side and didn't say anything, suddenly had a glimmer of light in her eyes when she heard this, but Shen Che's next sentence made her eyes dim.
"Marriage, of course, can be discussed."
Shen Che narrowed his eyes, and his gaze fell on Ji Xu, which made him feel a little prickly, "Whether the marriage is successful or not depends on the sincerity of the head of the Ji family." ”
As he spoke, Shen Che glanced at Ah Yi.
Ah Yi suddenly understood, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, and handed it to Ji Xu.
"In the early years, your Ji family took thirty-five shop deeds and eleven land deeds from here, and now ten years have passed, this king has taken double back, isn't it too much?"
When Ji Xu saw the handwriting on the paper, the blood on his face instantly faded clean, and the hands holding the paper couldn't help but tremble.
On this piece of paper, the industry to which his Ji family belongs is clearly investigated, and the forty-six industries selected in it are all quite profitable!
If all these are handed over, the Ji family's industry will shrink by half
, I'm afraid that even the middle family of Westwind City is not as good.
Ji Xu took a deep breath, revealing a pitiful appearance, and said in a trembling voice: "Virtuous nephew, you are driving your uncle to a dead end!" ”
Shen Che's eyes were indifferent and he didn't say a word.
Ah Yi spontaneously walked up to Mrs. Ji and invited the mother and daughter of the Ji family out.
The next words, heard by many people, have a bad impact.
After the mother and daughter of the Ji family left, the indifferent smile on Shen Che's face became more and more wanton, "Desperate? This king is giving Uncle Ji a way to live, and the road of the third prince is a dead end. ”
Ji Xu's expression froze instantly, and the front hall fell into a long silence.
Before coming, he thought that Shen Che would make things difficult because of the things back then, and even resolutely refused to get married, he had thought of a way to deal with it, a yellow-haired boy, even if he stabilized the Zhenwang Mansion, how capable could he be?
But now, where does he still have the slightest thought of underestimation, facing the young man in front of him, he only has a deep fear in his heart.
Shen Che, he can even find out the movements of the third prince, how did he find it?
"Uncle Ji, have you thought about it?"
Shen Che's slender knuckles gently tapped the teacup noodles, and the chuckle fell into Ji Xu's ears, like a nightmare, "These things, if you give them as a dowry, my Shen family will hire them, and the dowry is what you want the most...... The blessing of my town's palace, what does Uncle Ji think? ”
Ji Xu's face was pale, and he couldn't speak.
He can see it clearly, the three princes and Shen Che are both hungry wolves who eat people and don't spit out bones, the difference is only in which one looks better.
"Uncle Ji doesn't need to answer in a hurry."
Shen Che put down the teacup and smiled a little warmly, "During this period of consideration, Ji Qing can continue to live in the Zhenwang Mansion and be well entertained by this king." When you think clearly, go back when you want. ”
Ji Xu was stunned for a moment, and said urgently: "The lover is innocent......
"What is Uncle afraid of?"
Shen Che chuckled, "Sister Ji Qing is a guest, this king won't harm her." It's not too early, so please come back, uncle. ”
After saying that, Shen Che actually got up and left directly, no longer looking at Ji Xu.
Ji Xu looked at his departing back, and his straight back suddenly became rickety. Whether his daughter is a guest or a hostage, he can still tell the difference.
is clearly a young man, how can he be so ruthless?
