After the court trial was over, Ji Shu was about to go home, but Ji's father stopped her behind her.

"Shu'er, it's still early, you come with me, I have something to ask you."

Ji Shu looked at him and followed slowly.

The two got into the carriage, and Father Ji asked, "How are you doing in the Hou Mansion these days?" How does Qi Ye treat you? ”

"We're all nice and loving." Ji Shuwan'er, "Dad, if you have anything to ask, just say it." ”

“……”

Father Ji was silent for a moment, and lowered his voice: "The matter of Ji Kun and Ji Ren, did you calculate?" ”

"It's me."

Ji Shu happily admitted that he caught Ji's father off guard.

He opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Ji Shu said slowly: "At first, it was just a temptation. If Ji Kun can resist the temptation, then the Ji family can still be calm on his face. It's a pity that he has taken advantage of the big house. The gulf of desire can never be filled. ”

"My father has always regarded the Ji family's rooms as family, but now it's not like before. As long as there is a relationship of interest, it will not be pure, the higher you climb, the more jealous they are, as long as you look back, you will know how much blood those few houses have sucked on you for so many years. ”

"How many officers in the side department were admitted by themselves? Father forgive me for saying that the emperor doesn't want to attack the Ji family at the moment, but if he wants to, just because his father is virtuous and does not avoid relatives, and these official positions arranged for the side branches are enough for the emperor to deal with the Ji family for personal gain. ”

Ji's father was red-faced by his daughter, although he couldn't change it for a while, and he was instilled by his elders for decades.

But this originally unbreakable idea was finally pried open a little crack by Ji Shu.

Ji Shu said: "I still keep that amount of money in the money bank." If your father and brother are short of money, just go and get it. It's just that I will let the shopkeeper remember every time, and if the silver is used on the side branches, I will definitely get it back. ”

"The dowry is from my husband, and it is used on my father, mother, brother, sister-in-law, and grandmother, and he and I are not distressed, and others will forget it."

Before Father Ji could speak, Xitao's voice sounded outside the carriage.

"Madam, it's not too early, and the Hou Ye should come back later. We've got to go home. ”

"Got it."

Ji Shu nodded at Father Ji, "I'll go back to see you another day." Father take care of himself. ”

"Okay."

Father Ji nodded in a hoarse voice, and watched Ji Shu get out of the carriage.

Leaving the alley, Xi Tao worriedly pulled Ji Shu's clothes and asked worriedly, "Miss is not injured, is she?" ”

"How can it hurt?"

"It's good if you're not hurt......"

Xi Tao patted her chest, blinked her eyes and said, "Why didn't the master reprimand Miss this time?" ”

In fact, Ji Shu was also quite surprised, she chuckled and said, "Maybe it's because this time I was right." ”

After all, no matter how foolish and filial a person is, he has a temper.

When Ji Shu returned to the Hou Mansion in a carriage, he happened to collide with Qi Ye who was returning to the mansion.

She took Qi Ye's hand and stepped out of the carriage, and as soon as her foot landed, she was pulled by a pull and fell into Qi Ye's arms.

He hugged her, buried himself in her shoulder and neck and sighed softly, his voice hoarse:

"Years old, I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you so much."

Ji Shu smiled and raised his hand to stroke his back.

"It's only been a few days, how can I not see that the general is so sentimental in the past."

Qi Ye straightened up and said, "The ancients said that if you don't see each other for a day, you are like being three years old. ”

Ji Shu smiled gently, and led him to the mansion, who knew that in a glance, Qi Chengxu was standing under the plaque of the Champion Hou's Mansion.

He looked at them coldly.

Qi Ye's expression was indifferent, and he said, "Something?" ”

Qi Chengxu's hand hanging down at his side was clenched into a fist, and his heart was full of anger, but his fear of Qi Ye was also engraved in his bones.

He hung his head and said, "Father has invited you to eat at the Bofu. Today's banquet was held for the old princess and the prince to receive the wind and wash the dust. ”

Qi Ye looked at Ji Shu.

Ji Shu thought for a while and said, "What time, tonight?" ”

Qi Chengxu nodded, and Ji Shu said to Qi Ye: "Then go, Princess Qianxi lives in Linfu, and I haven't asked her old man to say goodbye." ”

Ji Shu's smile was deep with subtle emotions, Qi Ye caught it, and nodded silently.

Qi Chengxu stared at the two of them as they walked into the Hou Mansion, and only when the door closed in front of him did he leave unwillingly.

Qi Ye led Ji Shu on the road, looked at her with lowered eyes, and suddenly said:

"Sui, you and I are husband and wife, you know?"

"Of course I do."

"Years and years, husband and wife, support each other. Sometimes you can try to rely on me. ”

Ji Shu stopped his steps, and the people behind him fell far away, and when he saw the two of them stopping, they turned their backs in unison.

The evening breeze was clear, Ji Shu wrapped his arms around Qi Ye's waist, and said in a soft voice:

"Chang Ying, I want to be a person worthy of you, not a silk flower wrapped around you."

"That's not what I meant......"

Qi Ye frowned slightly, and explained a little anxiously, Ji Shu kissed him on the lips and smiled playfully.

"I know what the general means, and when I need the general's help, I naturally won't be stingy to speak. But what I can do, I want to do myself. ”

Qi Ye pinched her waist, lowered his head and kissed her lips, bit it gently, and said helplessly:

"Don't let yourself get hurt."

"Hmm."

The two changed their clothes and held hands and went to Wudingbo's mansion.

Ji Shu said softly: "I have heard some rumors in the past few days, it seems that something has happened in Jiangzhou, and the emperor intends to send my eldest brother to investigate." ”

Qi Ye nodded thoughtfully, "This morning, there were indeed officials who mentioned this matter. Someone sells an addictive drug in Jiangzhou, which has spread in Jiangzhou. Your eldest brother seems to be interested in asking himself to be the overseer. ”

"Princess Qianxi is from Jiangzhou, maybe she has heard of this."

Qi Ye nodded, and the two of them were welcomed by the people of the Bofu to the pavilion of the water pavilion where the banquet was held.

Wu Dingbo and the others were already on the table, Steward Qiao led the two to the pavilion, and Princess Qianxi and the others got up to greet Qi Ye.

Ji Shu smiled and asked Xi Tao to hand over the meeting gift to the princess.

"A little caution is not a respect. I hope the old princess can like it. ”

The old princess lukewarmly let her subordinates take the things, nodded and said, "Mrs. Hou is bothered." ”

The atmosphere at the banquet was not warm, the people in Wudingbo's Mansion were holding Princess Qianxi, and Qi Yaoyao was sitting next to her mother-in-law Xie, cautious, and gave her cloth vegetables with a smile.

Ji Shu sat beside Qi Ye, opposite Princess Qianxi, and waited for a while after the banquet before she asked out loud:

"The old princess has lived in Jiangzhou for many years, right?"

The old princess of the Xie family said: "Yes, my mother was separated from my father for a while, and then my mother and I were exiled to Qingzhou, and then in the famine year of Qingzhou, I was displaced from my mother, and finally reunited with my father. ”

The old princess nodded, listening with emotion, Xie's serious expression also showed a sad look, and she raised her hand to wipe the corners of her eyes.

Ji Shu nodded, "Now it's all bittersweet." ”

"Bitterness comes sweetly, but it is still a lot of regrets. My sister was separated from me and my mother during the famine, and it had been so many years that we had only recently heard from her. ”

Xie Shi stared at Ji Shu: "As a result, my sister has passed away, and my only niece has been bullied after the disaster." I will definitely avenge this revenge for my deceased sister. ”
