Chapter 31: Self-Inflicted Consequences

Linking the previous encounter with the bandits and the current incident of the four princes, Ji Ruhuan had a guess in her heart, and she wanted to tell her father about it.

Ji Ruhuan saw his father in the study, his father did not have the previous care, affection and warmth, but obviously noticed the hidden anger on his father's body, but he didn't have a seizure with himself, and after beckoning himself to sit down, he said, "Didn't you let you recuperate in the courtyard?"

Ji Ruhuan responded, "Father doesn't have to worry, his daughter is fine." ”

General Ji was a little surprised when he heard Ji Ruhuan's tone, but Ji Ruhuan continued to speak, "My daughter came today to explain something to her father. ”

General Ji's brows furrowed, and his anger gradually rose again, and he asked in a not very good tone, "What's the matter?"

Ji Ruhuan knew that her father was afraid that he had misunderstood himself and believed in the tricks of the fourth prince, but his father did not pursue the matter, and chose to hide it from her, in the end, he still felt sorry for her.

Sighing helplessly, Ji Ruhuan opened his mouth and said, "Huan'er has heard about the things outside, why does my father believe what others say and don't come to ask Huan'er?"

General Ji frowned and replied, "Didn't I tell everyone in the mansion to shut up?"

After speaking, he realized the meaning of Ji Ruhuan's words, and looked at his daughter in surprise, "Do you mean that the letter is true?"

Ji Ruhuan nodded and responded, "Of course it's not true, father, although Huan'er was confused before, she was not so confused." ”

Saying this, Ji Ruhuan was very embarrassed in her heart, thinking about the things she did in her previous life, she was just confused.

However, he quickly adjusted his mood and continued, "The relationship between Huan'er and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is only a few face-to-face meetings at most, and Huan'er has never had any intention of the Four Princes, how can there be correspondence, that Raushzi's letter was definitely not written by Huan'er, there must be some misunderstanding or conspiracy in it." ”

Since the fourth prince is so calculating, of course she wants to pour some oil on her fire and fall into the well, although she disdains to do such a thing, but if she is replaced by the fourth prince, she doesn't mind giving it a try.

General Ji looked at Ji Ruhuan, as if considering the authenticity of Ji Ruhuan's words.

Ji Ruhuan changed the topic and said, "Daddy, can you find out the bandits we encountered last time?"

General Ji replied, "I've been caught, it's a group of fugitive bandits." ”

Ji Ruhuan looked at his father, "Daddy believes?"

General Ji showed a surprised expression on his face again, of course he didn't believe it, but after checking for several days, he didn't find out who was behind the scenes, but this girl who has always been arrogant could actually think of this?

But now that his daughter is becoming more sensible and smarter, of course he is happy, he looked at Ji Ruhuan with interest, and said, "Why don't you believe it?"

Ji Ruhuan responded, "Huan'er asked Xiaohua, she said that the people who were chasing her were about to chase her, but they suddenly turned around and stopped chasing, what is the reason? ”

General Ji nodded, "Go on." ”

"We just encountered abnormal bandits, my grandmother and sister are fine, but I ruined my reputation, and there were rumors that my reputation was ruined, and then the four princes took the opportunity to come out, and it was a letter and an infatuation If I don't marry, under normal circumstances, if my father is for my good, I must be happy to do this family business, right?"

General Ji became more and more surprised, but he had never thought of linking the matter of the bandits with the four princes like this, and at this time, when Ji Ruhuan said this, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and he couldn't help muttering, "This is too ridiculous." ”

Ji Ruhuan sneered, "Even the letter I gave her can be forged, what nonsense can't the fourth prince do?"

General Ji's original surprise gradually turned into anger, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Ji Ruhuan's analysis made sense.

Thinking that these things might be directed and acted by the four princes, and they played a trick, which ruined Huan'er's reputation, General Ji slapped the desk angrily, "It's just too deceitful." ”

The pen holder on the table was shocked and flew towards Ji Ruhuan, and Ji Ruhuan took a few steps back before dodging.

General Ji also hurriedly put away his anger, and said with a look of self-reproach, "It's Daddy who is not good, I scared Huan'er, I haven't protected Huan'er yet, let Huan'er suffer such grievances, Huan'er rest assured, Daddy will definitely seek justice for you in this matter." ”

Ji Ruhuan went over and hugged his father's arm and said coquettishly, "As long as Daddy believes in Huan'er, Huan'er will not be wronged, but Daddy, do these four princes really take a fancy to me?

Did she really take a fancy to her, of course Ji Ruhuan understood in her heart that she just wanted to remind her father that the true goal of the four princes.

As far as his father's temperament is concerned, he is not allowed to participate in him in front of the emperor.

Now that His Majesty is in the prime of life, the fourth prince has tried so hard to win over the courtiers, his purpose is obvious, and he still has his own idea, how can this Majesty easily spare him?

Thinking that the fourth prince was rejected by the emperor, the smile on Ji Ruhuan's face couldn't help it.

General Ji heard the questions asked by Ji Ruhuan, so he lowered his head and fell into deep thought, and when he raised his head again, he just happened to see Ji Ruhuan's smile.

He didn't answer Ji Ruhuan's questions, but reached out and nodded Ji Ruhuan's forehead, and scolded, "You are still laughing." ”

Ji Ruhuan responded with a smile, "Is it okay for my daughter to cry if she doesn't laugh, she has to cry, and her father must not be sad?"

General Ji replied with a smile, "It's good that you're not sad, and Daddy is finally relieved." ”

Ji Ruhuan said, "Daddy, just put a hundred hearts, it's a non-existent thing, what is Huan'er sad about, besides, Huan'er is the daughter of the general of Zhenguo, how can she be so weak, crying and crying for this little thing." ”

General Ji was coaxed by Ji Ruhuan's smile even more, "It's not ashamed to boast like this." ”

Next, Ji Ruhuan obediently stayed in her yard, didn't go out, should eat, drink, and only asked Qiu's mother to inquire about things outside from time to time.

Qiu's mother didn't hide it anymore, and she would tell you any news outside in time.

This has a direction, and things are much smoother.

Almost a month after Ji Ruhuan's encounter with the bandits, there was a big news in Kyoto, that is, His Majesty had given marriage to His Royal Highness the Four Princes, which was originally a happy event, but it became a joke in Kyoto, because the fiancΓ©e of His Royal Highness the Four Princes was actually the daughter of a small merchant.

Many people don't understand, aren't these four princes the Royal Highness Miss Ji who is in love with the Zhenguo Mansion? These two people can be regarded as a good match, how could they turn around and be given to marry the daughter of a merchant?

Is it a joke that the noble prince is actually married to the daughter of a merchant, or is it a joke that His Majesty is married?

However, as long as the adults who go to the court know what the reason is, in order to marry the eldest lady of the Zhenguo Mansion, these four princes actually hired bandits to kidnap Miss Ji, and the kidnapping attempt failed, and they designed to ruin Miss Ji's reputation, forged letters, and wanted to force Miss Ji to marry her.

I didn't want to be found out by General Ji, so I directly participated in the four princes in the court, and the evidence should be conclusive.

The saint was furious and had a seizure on the spot, not only punished the four princes with a one-year ban, but also gave the four princes such a marriage, which completely became the laughing stock of Kyoto.
