In the carriage, Rong Hao and Ji Ming sat relatively speechless.

The breeze blows gently, and the curtains on the car windows are blown by the wind, bringing some of the smell of the city. Vendors on both sides were hawking, and the smell of various things was blown in with the wind.

Ji Ming slapped the cushion irritably, sighed, and leaned limply against the wall of the car.

Rong Hao sat upright, his eyes down.

"Ji Ming, you have always been cautious, why did you make such a mistake today?" Rong Hao's voice was a little angry, he rarely lost his temper with Ji Ming, he still cared a lot about this brother who grew up together, but today's incident really made it difficult for him to do.

Ji Ming was very depressed, he came out of the Su family in a hurry, his hair bun was still a little messy, the buckle of the neckline was spread out, and there were many wrinkles scattered on his robe. "I don't know, I drank a cup of tea in the hall today, and then I felt hot all over my body, and when I woke up, it was what you saw."

There was another silence in the car. Ji Ming looked very tired because of the excessive physical exertion before, Rong Hao was in a really bad mood when he saw him, and he didn't want to mention this matter more, but there were too many doubts about this matter, and he felt that all this was for him, Rong Hao frowned.

"What are you going to do? slept with someone's daughter for no reason, Su Xiang probably wouldn't reveal it easily. Rong Hao asked.

Ji Ming frowned, and leaned on the soft pillow in the car with some self-abandonment, "Alas, what else can I do, let's take one step at a time." Today is still a bad year, and I shouldn't go out, just to take a look at Su Jiaojiao, but this happened. Fortunately, the old man and his brother are far away from the frontier, otherwise their legs will be broken when they return home. Sadness is written on his face, and his eyes are closed.

Rong Hao snorted coldly in his heart, he still remembered Su Jiaojiao at this time, if he guessed correctly, the initiators of this game were Su Jiaojiao and Mrs. Hua. But the straight man Ji Ming has a tendon, and the goddess who slanders him after he is ridiculous will obviously make him go berserk. Rong Hao pursed his lips, wanting to liven up the atmosphere, "Ji Ming, you kid is very powerful." It's faster than this king, this king and Su Xia have lived together for so long, and they are not as fast as your day's progress. He kicked Ji Ming's calf and smiled meaningfully.

Ji Ming rubbed his face with both hands and buried his face in the palm of his hand, "Lord Wang, don't make fun of me." I'd rather not be so powerful, being caught and raped in bed in front of my favorite woman, a man can't stand it. ”

Rong Hao shook his head, "I haven't experienced it, I don't feel anything." ”

Ji Ming glanced at him, what kind of bad friend he had made. "However, Lord Wang, in this way, Su Xiang will not have an opinion on you. After all, you took me to the Su Mansion today, if I don't give Su Wan a good explanation, I'm afraid that Su Xiang will be angry with you. ”

Rong Hao grabbed a handful of melon seeds and knocked them, "I may not be angry, but your father who is far away on the frontier is estimated to receive a letter from Su Xiang, and then he rode a thousand miles back to the capital with his big knife on his back, and cut you this humiliating boy." ”

Ji Ming thought about his father's angry Xingshi and asked for the guilt, with a tall head and a big horse, gray hair, wearing armor, carrying a big knife, sitting on a horse, and he was bound by hemp rope, kneeling in front of the horse, with a wooden sign on his body, saying "adulterer" son, Dad roared angrily, "Oh, you kid is bad for my Ji family's century-old family style, and the old man hacked you to death as an unfilial son." Immediately, goosebumps rose on his back, and cold sweat broke out in his palms. I couldn't help crying for myself in my heart, why did I sleep with the daughter of Su Xiang's family, if it was someone else's, give some money and buy it back to be a concubine.

Ji Ming looked at Rong Hao, "Lord Wang, do you have any good ideas?" I'm afraid my dad will rush back from the frontier and cut me. You know that my father's temper has always been very hot, and our sons are more well-behaved than other girls. ”

Putting a peeled melon seed kernel into his mouth, Rong Hao glanced at him, "What else can I do, a man must be responsible at this time, everyone else has ruined their reputation by you, you are still hesitating at this time, I suspect that you are still not a person." If you don't give her a good explanation, maybe she will hang herself in Su Mansion tomorrow. ”

"But you've lived with Su Xia for so long, don't you have no name and no point." Ji Ming couldn't help muttering.

Rong Hao was a little angry when he heard him muttering about himself and Su Xia, and slapped Ji Ming's shoulder lightly, "You're still a brother, no, I'm making ideas for you, but you took the opportunity to pull me into the water." Let me tell you, I have lived with Su Xia for so long, we are innocent, that is, we only knew that she was a woman when I was assassinated last time. If I had known, I wouldn't have been so ridiculous. ”

Rong Hao thought for a while, and continued: "If you really don't like it, you can first enter the mansion as a concubine, and Su Xiang's concubine will not lose you if you are a concubine." ”

Ji Ming's face was full of embarrassment, "You are joking again, you don't know the family style of my family, my mother is a concubine, but my father still married her for so many years." There is only one wife among the brothers, and if I take a concubine at this time, not only will my mother beat me to death, but my sisters-in-law will not spare me. He tapped his head with a headache.

Gonggong Li poked his head in from the curtain of the car and handed a small box to Ji Ming. "Master Ji, you have worked hard. This is American ginseng, the old lady doctor used to say that the treatment of men is too strong, kidney deficiency, you eat some to see, the head will not be dizzy. ”

Ji Ming glanced at Rong Hao, what kind of living treasures are you in this mansion?

Rong Hao saw that Ji Ming's eyelids jumped a few times, and he didn't mean to answer, so he smiled and took it from Gonggong Li's hand. Father-in-law Li sent things out, and as soon as the door curtain was released, they disappeared again.

Rong Hao teased, "Come on, come on, Master Ji." You see, even the eunuch commanders in my house remember that you have kidney deficiency, hurry up and eat a little, don't waste a piece of kindness. ”

"You say, he's an old eunuch, why is he carrying this thing with his voice?" Ji Ming had a bitter face, took the American ginseng, and put a slice under his tongue, which was really refreshing.

The carriage stopped, and Gonggong Li came in again, "Lord Wang, Lord Ji, this is the Ji Mansion, does Lord Ji want to go back to the Mansion directly?" ”

Ji Ming straightened his clothes and cleared his throat, "Lord Wang, then I'll go back to bathe and change clothes first." I won't go to the palace today, and remember to help me take a leave when you go to patrol in the afternoon. ”

Rong Hao nodded, "You go, have a good rest." ”

Ji Ming jumped out of the carriage with a cat's waist.

Originally, this matter was Su Xiang's family matter, and there were very few people who should know about it. But when Rong Hao went to the palace in the afternoon, he was completely shocked.

Along the way, I met many eunuchs and palace maids who were chattering about this, "Hey, hey, do you know? That Ji Commander looks like Sven Wen on weekdays, but he did big things in a muffled voice, and as soon as he went to Su Xiang's house, he slept with his daughter. ”

"What? And what's going on? Can Su Xiang endure it? ”

"What can Su Xiang do if he can't bear it. His daughter did something insulting, and the object was still a big official in the court, and her family was rich, so in addition to suing the emperor, she could only suffer a big loss in a muffled voice. ”

"Alas, it's still Miss Su Wu's pity, she was originally a concubine, and now there is this kind of thing, if Commander Ji insists on not marrying, then Miss will probably have to find a crooked neck tree and hang herself."

Rong Hao listened silently along the way, thinking in his heart that only an old lady and his own and Su Xiang's blood relatives knew about this matter at that time, so it should not have been poked out. As a result, now even the palace knows about it, so I don't know what it has become among the hundreds of officials and the rumors in the market. I'm afraid that tomorrow, even General Ji, who is far away on the frontier, will get the news, and maybe he will really rush back with a big knife.

The palace is boiling here, and the Ji Mansion is not stopping there. Ji Ming's two sisters-in-law and his mother all knew about the ridiculous thing he had done. Mrs. Ji was born as a concubine, and General Ji received her help when he was young, and since then he has been grateful for his kindness, no longer taking concubines, and marrying her as his wife. So Mrs. Ji was very sympathetic to Su Wan, and she was also very angry at her son's absurdity. His two sisters-in-law are not the daughters of a wealthy family, and they can sympathize with the hardships of a concubine like Su Wan.

Ji Ming took a bath, closed the door and slept in the stall, Mrs. Ji had already repaired a letter to General Ji and handed it over.

There was a knock on the door, and Ji Ming vaguely felt that there was a group of people standing in front of the door through the light and shadow. When I opened the door, my mother and two sisters-in-law were standing at the door with a fierce look. When Mrs. Ji saw him open the door, she waved her hand, and several family generals entered in response and dragged Ji Ming to the center of the courtyard.

Ji Ming struggled, and his shoes were kicked off, "Mother, mother, what are you doing?" ”

Old Madam Ji and the two Mrs. Ji were unmoved. With a calm face, he followed Ji Ming to the compound. Ji Ming was pressed on a bench in the middle of the courtyard, and several generals on the left and right pressed him, and he couldn't get up when he thought about it.

Old Madam Ji held the rattan, "Ji Ming, do you know why my mother dragged you here today?" ”

Ji Ming didn't expect the news to spread so quickly, thinking that his mother didn't know about it yet. He shook his head, "Mother, I didn't do anything bad." ”

A rattan stick was pumped on his back, "You haven't done anything bad, you ruined the innocence of other girls, do you dare to say that you haven't done anything bad?" Just because the family is a concubine, you didn't even make a promise when you left, are you still a thing? Are you still a good son of my Ji family? ”

The two sisters-in-law were also helping beside them, "Third brother, you are too unreasonable." The men of our Ji family have never been so ridiculous. "Mother is angry, beat out and get angry, and the third child will give a satisfactory statement."

Ji Ming's cold sweat dripped down, how long has it been since his mother and sister-in-law knew? He held on to the last glimmer of hope, "Mother, you know, does Dad know?" ”

The more Mrs. Ji thought about it, the more angry she became, and she smoked a few rattans, she practiced martial arts when she was young, and she had a lot of strength in her hands, these rattans were pumped very hard, and there were faint traces of blood on the clothes behind Ji Ming, "I have already repaired the book for your father, whether your father comes back to eat joy wine or drink mourning wine, it depends on your performance." ”

Ji Ming called Tian Tian no, and nodded sadly, "Mother, two sisters-in-law, please help me prepare a generous gift, I will go to Su Xiang's mansion tomorrow to propose marriage, and hire the fifth lady of the Su family to be my wife." ”
