Chapter 42 Recognition

Ji Rongjin was secretly shocked, but said calmly: "A civilian girl is just a bean sprout seller. Your Highness thinks highly of me!"

She didn't admit it, and as King Zhao Yanhao expected it, he didn't believe that a woman could figure it out after knowing the news, but the result of the secret investigation was her.

He was very curious, "How did you come up with the idea of ​​'warships for civilian use'?"

"It's all in the history books, hasn't your Highness read it?"

When the war ceases and the world is at peace, should we let those warships stay in the harbor and be beaten by wind and rain into a pile of rotten wood?

The books on the wall at home are not just for show. Ji Rongjin has read about such cases, and she doesn't think there is anything special about this idea.

History books? King Zhao is also well-read, so why haven’t he read them?

"yes……"

"There is a passage in the General History of Han and Liang that records the horses requisitioned in the war and the abandoned fields. Isn't this how horses were requisitioned and abandoned fields were returned to the people through renting?"

Reading history is a compulsory course for every prince. The general history mentioned by Ji Rongjin was left by a great scholar in the previous dynasty. Yan Hao had read it, but he did not connect the idle warships to it.

He squeezed the tea cup almost invisible and said with a smile, "Young lady is really not like a boudoir girl in the capital. Are these all trained in the North?"

Ji Rongjin couldn't understand what he said, so she smiled slightly and said, "Young girl can't understand what your highness is talking about. If there's nothing else, I'm leaving." After that, she turned around and went out.

Two guards at the door blocked her way.

"Your Highness, what does this mean?"

King Zhao smiled and said nothing.

Ji Rongjin felt a little angry and wanted to go out by force.

"Sister-" followed by the male voice was the sound of wooden wheels rolling on the ground.

She seeks prestige.

A man in white clothes was pushed out in a wheelchair. When he saw her, his sad expression showed the joy of reunion after a long absence.

Ji Rongjin's eyes did not stop on the man in white, but on the old woman pushing the wheelchair, "Aunt Guo?"

In daily life, Aunt Guo kept making insinuations about her amnesia. Ji Rongjin guessed that her relationship with him was unusual, but he did not expect that she would appear when King Zhao appeared.

If her surname is really Cai and she is the granddaughter of former Cai Guoshi, shouldn't King Zhao, who wants to participate in the fight for the legitimate heir, avoid suspicion?

Ji Rongjin knew that King Zhao was definitely not as honest as he showed, but he never expected that he would blatantly mix with the Cai family, which was suppressed by the Holy Emperor.

What's the meaning?

"Sister..." the man in white said in a choked voice, "It's my brother's fault that he failed to protect you and made you trapped by Yan Tao."

"I'm sorry, I don't recognize it..." Ji Rongjin was interrupted by Aunt Guo before she could finish her rejection.

She ran to her little master and knelt down, "Rong Niang, you can fool others, but you can never fool me. From the first time I saw you, I recognized you as my little master - Rong Niang.

.”

"There are people who look alike everywhere in the world, why do you think I am the one you identify with?"

"Rong Niang, you have bigger breasts than mine!" Aunt Guo burst into tears and said many things about me.

"But..." Ji Rongjin didn't want to face the reality, but couldn't find a decent reason, "Three years ago, after I fell down on Poshi Mountain, I forgot many people and things. In the past three years, I have learned a lot.

I read a lot of books and finally survived with gourmet recipes."

"Sister..." The man in white pushed his wheelchair in front of her excitedly, "It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, why did you attract those bandits and why did you fall down the hillside? It's all my brother's fault..."

He burst into tears, "The Cai family is over. In this world, my sister and I are the only ones who depend on each other." He reached out to hold Ji Rongjin's hand, but she dodged it.

"Yes...I'm sorry, I can't remember..."

King Zhao sent three troops to explore Ji Rongjin's bottom. Three years ago, in a remote mountain village in Pingji County, three hundred miles away, an old couple indeed rescued a beautiful young lady. Originally, they planned to raise her and sell her.

Money, but she escaped. A few days after escaping, she met the manager of the restaurant in Duke Wen's palace.

A man was so knocked that he forgot everything, but he remembered the recipe and used it to feed himself. King Zhao, like most people, had the same question. After a fall, his temperament would change, and even being able to cook food became another talent.

?

The master and the servant recognized each other, no, to be precise, it was Cai Rongcheng, the master and the servant, and Cai Ronger.

It took a lot of effort for the two of them to calm down, and their hearts were finally at peace.

"Little master, the eldest son was worried that you couldn't sleep well all night long. Now it's better. You finally recognize each other. He has also explained to the master and his wife, and he can finally feel at ease."

Ji Rongjin's heart was twitching, and she was shouting in her heart, "I have nothing to do with you, please don't recognize me, okay?"

"Then... I have been away for too long. His Highness King Qi will look for me. I have to leave." Ji Rongjin wanted to fly out.

Aunt Guo grabbed her and said, "Little master, King Qi has nothing to do with you. He has been using you. The eldest son has been thinking of ways and finally invited His Highness King Zhao. He will help you leave King Qi."

What is the difference between King Qi and King Zhao? Even if King Zhao is a direct prince, he is more qualified to compete with King Chu for the heir apparent. Why does she have to go from one danger to another more dangerous pit?

No, she will never do it a second time.

"But..." Ji Rongjin blinked, with mist in his eyes, "I..." with the shy expression of a daughter.

Anyone with eyes could see that the young lady in front of him admired King Yan Tao of Qi.

Cai Rongcheng's thin face was pale, "It's my fault!"

"..." Why blame him? Ji Rongjin looked up in confusion, and when he met his gaze, he dodged away as if he was frightened.

King Zhao sat aside and drank tea calmly, as calm as an old monk in meditation.

"I should have come to the capital earlier and met you earlier, so King Qi would not have had a chance."

"..." Ji Rongjin lowered his head.

Cai Rongcheng clenched the armrest sadly and looked at King Zhao, "Your Highness..."

King Zhao put down the cup and reached out to stop Cai Rongcheng from saying, "Maybe this is not a bad thing, what do you think, brother Rongcheng?"

Cai Rongcheng instantly understood what King Zhao meant.

Ji Rongjin was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly many scenes from movies and TV dramas came to mind. Go on, it can't be what she thought!

Her eyes were searching between the two of them.

Cai Rongcheng glanced at Aunt Guo, and she immediately understood, "Rong Niang, I will open the door for you."

"..." Just dismissed her like this? The atmosphere of family recognition dissipated so quickly? Are you sure she is your biological sister?

Better not.

Ji Rongjin secretly prayed that he would not have to face these embarrassing scenes again.

Aunt Guo walked her out of the door and whispered, "I will tell you the details when Rong Niang returns to Osmanthus Alley."

After saying that, he looked left and right and carefully closed the private room door.

Ji Rongjin stood at the door and was stunned for a while before going up to the third floor.

His Highness King Qi sat back down again at some point. When he saw her coming, he cast his eyes over.

"Your Highness!" Ji Rongjin stepped forward and saluted.

"Where did you go?"

"When I was going to the toilet, I met a customer from the morning tea shop and exchanged a few words with him."
