Chapter 47
The young ladies came out of the pavilion one after another, and the Twin Pavilions suddenly became much cleaner. Ji Rongjin thought that she could rest in peace now. Unexpectedly, the eighth prince, King Wei, said, "Won't Mrs. Ji go out to appreciate the plum blossoms?"
The north wind was blowing, it was freezing cold, what's so good about dead branches and fallen leaves? Of course, Ji Rongjin was not qualified to say this, so he looked at Yan Tao with a pretentious look, "Your Highness..." His eyes were drawn, with a look of reluctance.
King Yantao of Qi stretched out his hand to hold her little hand and said, "Put some plum branches back and raise them. They will bloom during the Chinese New Year. Wouldn't they be beautiful?"
It's so beautiful. Ji Rongjin really didn't want to go out to enjoy the cold wind, but the 'finance master' had already spoken. What else could she do? She blessed her lower body and said, "Yes, Your Highness, the daughter of the people will go now."
The two little girls who came with her today, one was a perilla gift from King Qi, and the other was a gift bought by herself, they immediately followed her and left the Twin Pavilion with her in their arms.
The eyes of King Zhao, King Chu and others all fell on Lao Qi's outer chamber. Rumors, investigations, and ideas for government and civilian use all came from this little commoner woman - Ji Rongjin.
Who is she? Can she come up with such an idea? Or is Lao Qi using her as a cover to deceive the government and the public, using women as a cover, Lao Qi can do it? When did he become so shameless?
Ji Rongjin didn't know that as she left the pavilion, the princes had different expressions and had ulterior motives.
The winter in ancient times was much colder than in modern times, especially in the north. When I walked out, the cold wind cut my face like a knife. Ji Rongjin didn't want to visit the plum forest at all, so he told the little girl, "Zhaoxi, go and get a cut."
Zhaoxi was a girl recruited by the master himself. If anything happened, the master would think of her. Zisu didn't expect to give her the hard work. He was a little puzzled, but he didn't look happy and followed her politely.
The cold wind was howling, and Zhao Xi didn't expect her master to ask her to prune plum branches. "Jin Niang..." Xiaozui felt aggrieved.
"Didn't you often say that when you were a kid, you climbed mountains and climbed trees and went down rivers to catch fish? Then you must have finished cutting and come back soon."
It turned out to be like this. When I heard that it could show off my special skills, Zhao Xi no longer felt cold, and he went to cut the plum branches happily.
Zisu suppressed her smile, lowered her eyebrows and followed her master.
Of course, the little girl's behavior did not escape Ji Rongjin's eyes. She calmly turned to a small rockery. The rockery blocked the biting cold wind, and the sun in front of her was quite warm.
Before I could stand still for a minute, someone blocked the sunlight.
Ji Rongjin was not surprised at all. He turned around with a puzzled look on his clean and bright face, as if he was asking who you are and why you are blocking my sun.
Yuan Zizhi didn't like Xiao Bailian, so she snorted coldly, "Mr. Ji..."
For some reason, Ji Rongjin felt that this wealthy young lady would say next, "How much money will I give you to leave my cousin?" She opened her eyes and waited without blinking, saying, say it quickly! Suddenly she felt like she was in love with a wealthy family.
It felt like my own mother found out and threw away the banknote.
"You have the nerve to stay by your cousin's side even though you are obviously pretty and pretty. It's just embarrassing to your cousin. Someone..."
Does Duke Wen's palace have no money? Can't they let the arrogant young lady throw money at her and let her leave Yan Tao "obediently"? It's not that, it's so disappointing to her.
Yuan Zizhi was irritated by her careless look, "Am I wrong? With such beauty, you still dare to stay by your cousin's side. Come here, beat her out."
A crowd of girls swarmed behind her.
×××(a kind of grass.)
Ji Rongjin cursed a kind of grass, turned sideways and ran away, climbing up the rockery.
"They're all dead, so many people can't catch a bitch."
Zisu was a girl trained by Prince Qi's Mansion. Almost everyone in the aristocratic circles in the capital knew her, and of course they even knew the young lady from Duke Wen Guo's family who was in charge of housework in Prince Qi's Mansion.
"Zhi Niang, Mrs. Ji is His Highness's wife, you are like this..." Before she could finish her words, she was slapped by Yuan Zijia, "Who do you think you are, how dare you teach me a lesson."
The other party was the cousin of the owner and the granddaughter of Duke Wen Guo. No matter how wronged Zisu was, she did not dare to show any signs of it. She covered her face and stayed aside with tears in her eyes. Ji Rongjin stepped up to the side of the rockery, ready to continue climbing, when she saw Yuan Zizhi
The attack was so ruthless, and just as he was about to turn around and get down, someone else came over from the corner of his eye.
She quickly raised her eyes and saw that it was the young lady who was full of malice towards her in the pavilion. If she guessed correctly, she was Yan Tao's marriage partner - Lu Xiu'er, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Xuanping.
Cousin, marriage partner, and any admirers, come together, she solved it together, and when she looked up, a group of noble ladies gathered.
Ji Rongjin neither came down nor climbed up anymore. Instead, he sat on the rockery, folded his arms, and watched the show.
There are more women, and there are more dramas.
"Hey, isn't this the beloved concubine of His Highness King Qi? Why did you ride on the stone so boldly? It's not cold!"
The south-facing stone was so warmed by the sun that it wasn't really cold. Ji Rongjin raised his eyebrows and said, "This person thinks the problem is not big enough and is still here to stir up trouble."
"Shut up." Yuan Zizhi shouted at the newly arrived lady.
The noble girl was not afraid of her, she smiled and said, "Yunqin, see if what I said is right."
The young lady known as Yun Qin was gentle and elegant. She glanced over and landed on the rockery. "Don't be afraid, Mrs. Ji. It's dangerous up there. Come down and I can guarantee that no one will dare to embarrass you."
A group of noble ladies centered around her. When she spoke out, even Yuan Zizhi did not refute. There are two possibilities. One is that her status is higher than that of Yuan Zizhi in Duke Wen's palace, and the other is that she is afraid that her fiancé has a higher status.
Whether it was the former or the latter, Ji Rongjin was not in a hurry. Just as she was about to follow the steps she gave her, Lu Xiuer, who had exchanged identities with her, spoke.
"I vaguely heard about a side room..."
The noble lady who just spoke up for Ji Rongjin turned pale.
She instantly knew who this person was. It turned out to be a girl from the Wang family who was a doctor in the Ministry of War. It was said that the married King Chu took part in the fun of his younger brothers, and he also requested a side chamber.
Yan Tao was in charge of the Ministry of War, so the King of Chu married a young lady from the family of a fifth-grade doctor in the Ministry of War as his concubine. The meaning of this is self-evident.
Lu Xiuer raised her chin slightly proudly, "As His Highness's concubine, she has no respect and is rude in words and deeds. Someone comes and pulls her down to teach her a lesson." She looked like the mistress of the house.
Ji Rongjin looked up at the sky.
The Queen Mother of Qi, Concubine Shu, was interested in marrying the Lu family in Xuanping, but Duke Wen and the King of Qi did not agree. Otherwise, how could they acquiesce to Yuan Zizhi becoming the director of the Qi Palace.
Today, none of the other princes or noble grandsons brought the "outer concubine", but only King Qi did, and he was spreading dog food in front of her. Hasn't it been counted yet?
Is it because her family insists on relying on King Qi, or is it because Lu Xiuer is obsessed with King Qi? Or is it neither, and she has already recognized who Ji Rongjin is?
Ji Rongjin's heart skipped a beat when he thought of this.
If she recognized it, would she go to the Yamen to report it? Something had been hovering in Ji Rongjin's mind, but she never understood it. Until this moment, she finally understood what she had overlooked.
