Ji Weiting pounded his chest and rolled his eyes angrily, "What kind of sin have I done, you all want to use marriage to anger me! Other people's children are obedient, adults arrange to get married, give birth to grandchildren early, and never let people worry about it, what kind of trouble are you doing? Don't be angry with me, you are not reconciled, right?"

"Dad, the marriage is in a hurry, besides, I and Qingran are very busy, so we can postpone it for a few years. ”

"Still? I'm afraid you don't know how old you are, right? Go and see, the children are all in school with the same age as you, and there are rumors outside, you don't have a face, I still have a face! Today, if this matter is not resolved, you all get out of me, there are no unfilial children like you!"

Ji Weiting split his head and covered his face with a reprimand, such a thing is about to break out every three or five times, Ji Beihan and Ji Qingran have long been used to it.

"Father, don't be angry, we are actually observing, it's just that there is no suitable candidate yet, marriage is a big deal, you can't be sloppy, my eldest brother and I are cautious, it's not a bad thing. ”

Ji Weiting's eyes rolled, and he snorted coldly, "Don't be too pretentious, you think that women in the world are not worthy of you, your mother and concubine are in a hurry to gray hair for your marriage, she never goes out, a few days ago I went to attend a tea party with several ladies in the court, and talked about your marriage, there are just a few girls, not only good-looking, but also gentle and virtuous, your mother made an appointment with them, come over to play today, you take the opportunity to get to know each other!"

Ji Beihan and Ji Qingran were stunned, they were just talking before, but now they are taking people directly to their homes?

"Father, I suddenly remembered that there was still an urgent matter in the house that had not been dealt with, so I would go back first. Ji Qingran ran away, Ji Weiting had long expected that he would escape, and blocked his way in advance, "Qingran, it's a big thing, you can also put it for me, if you dare to leave today, see if I don't break your legs!"

Ji Qingran looked depressed, "Father, I think this time, let the eldest brother pick first, I won't be in a hurry." ”

"Several girls, you can always pick the one you like, the opportunity is rare, so don't be verbose. ”

After Ji Weiting finished speaking, he looked at Ji Beihan again, "You too, treat a few girls well, and if you like it, you will pick branches and flowers and give them to her, and your mother will understand what you mean." ”

Ji Beihan pretended to be obedient, "Yes." ”

Ji Qingran was shocked, "Big brother, you agreed?"

Ji Beihan glanced at him, and Ji Qingran smiled knowingly.

As soon as she finished speaking, the concubine came out with the support of the maidservant, and at the same time, there was movement on the other side of the gate, and the housekeeper happily brought a group of ladies and girls in, all of whom were the wives and ladies of the high-ranking officials of the court, all of them were gorgeously dressed, dignified and generous, and even the smile was like a copy, and the tone of speech was also a standard official cliché, so that people could not find anything wrong, but it was just annoying.

"Come on. ”

Ji Weiting urged them and pushed them out with a hard push.

Ji Beihan had no choice but to step forward, "Mother." ”

The concubine took his hand and went over to greet the group of women, "Mrs. Li, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Wang, hey, I can look forward to you, these fairies in the back are Ling Ai, right? ”

Several ladies happily introduced their daughters, one more able to play than the other, all of them are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, talented, and can not find any flaws in the perfect woman, even the dress is almost the same, and the appearance is not distinctive, not ugly, not good-looking.

Ji Qingzhi also feels the same way, why should beauties be the same? Obviously, each has its own beauty, each has its own differences, but after more than ten years of strict cultivation and education, it finally becomes a feeling, these girls, not like people, but like a commodity.

The concubine asked Ji Beihan in a low voice, "A few girls are good, do you have a fancy for them?"

"Nope. ”

The concubine was anxious, patted his hand and said, "Take a good look, don't rush to make a decision." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned a few ladies to the backyard to drink tea and chat.

A table had already been set up in the backyard, and several ladies sat around drinking tea and chatting, and several young ladies also sat around and talked in whispers.

The concubine coughed and called, "Beihan, you take a few young ladies around the house, the lotus flowers in the pond behind are blooming very well, and it's cool over there." ”

Several ladies naturally understood the intention, and they all wanted their girls to become princesses, "Go, young people are active, it's not interesting to be with us, let's go play." ”

Several girls were overjoyed and followed Ji Beihan to the lotus pond behind.

Ji Qingran really doesn't want to follow behind, don't say that he is not interesting to these girls, even if he is interesting, I am afraid that other girls will not see his existence, he is a concubine, no one wants to marry, who doesn't want to climb the high branches?

Ji Beihan walked in front with an expressionless face, and several girls followed him, whispering, "King Ji is even better looking than rumored." ”

"Well, but I heard that he had a princess before, but later, he was divorced. ”

"What is the reason?"

"I don't know. ”

They thought that Ji Beihan couldn't hear it, but in fact, he could hear it clearly, "Do you want to know why this king divorced his wife?"

He stopped abruptly and asked them, and the girls knew that he had heard, obviously very quietly.

Several panicked faces turned red, and Ji Bei said with a cold face, "Because she talks a lot, this king hates women who talk a lot!"

After saying that, he left with a black face.

Several girls were frightened, and stood in place in panic, you look at me, I look at you, and they are about to cry.

Ji Qingran kindly soothed, "It's okay, my brother has this temper, the lotus in front is quite good, you can go play." ”

Only then did a few girls notice him, "Thank you, Your Highness, we did lose our words just now, but we are really curious, what happened to the princess before?"

Ji lightly ran his forehead, and was surrounded by a group of little girls to ask this question, which made him very helpless, it was not appropriate to lose his temper, and it was not appropriate to be reasonable, so he simply replied with a serious face, "Didn't my brother say it just now? He hates women who talk a lot, the princess before, like you, especially likes to ask questions, my brother pulled out her tongue, cut off her hands, feet and head, oh, by the way, the little maid in the house who loves to ask questions, is also the same end, let me see, you have asked two questions just now, you may not be able to get out alive." ”

Several girls were instantly frightened and screamed and rushed towards the gate, and Ji Qingran laughed in the back until her stomach hurt.

Several girls were frightened and fled, and several ladies asked the reason, and their faces turned blue with anger, and they did not dare to attack, so they had to leave.

The concubine was embarrassed and personally sent them to the door.

Immediately afterwards, the news about how brutal Ji Beihan was spread throughout Kyoto City, and no one coveted the position of Princess Ji for the young girl.
