168. Bandit Emperor (14) (1/2)
Ji Xiawan didn't know why, but she burst into tears when he held her like this.
She cried like a child. In her memory, Ji Xiawan had never had the opportunity to cry like this since the year her mother died.
The people who could love her and give her support are all gone.
At this moment, I am not familiar with Wei Mingyan yet, so I should treat him with caution as I once imagined. But listening to his promise and feeling his tenderness, the grievances that I have suppressed for all these years are falling like a flood. .
Ziru, who was standing guard outside the house, heard the crying inside, and her expression suddenly became anxious. She raised her foot and was about to knock on the door.
The two nuns stopped her and said, "Don't worry, the girl was just wronged and couldn't hold it back when she saw the emperor."
They were all old men in the palace of the former dynasty. If they could survive the chaos and still get such a good job, they would have become human beings long ago.
When the emperor selected people to send to the future queen's home this time, his instructions were that the queen would be their only master. Only when the queen is good can they be good.
The two of them didn't understand why the emperor said this at first, but they finally saw it clearly after coming to the Ji family.
The emperor specifically wanted to support the queen.
Originally, everyone in the palace speculated that His Majesty wanted to marry Miss Ji as soon as he ascended the throne without even a draft because Miss Ji was a bloodline of Old General Zhou.
After all, although General Zhou has been dead for seven years, and Emperor Tianshun has kept silent about him, his contribution to the Jin State cannot be erased. Just say that General Zhao, who followed His Majesty to fight up this time, also did not Have you ever worked under General Zhou?
For the Jin State, General Zhou is their patron saint, especially the common people. After so many years, many people still secretly enshrine General Zhou's tablet at home.
Many people secretly speculated in their hearts that the new monarch might want to rely on the prestige left by the old general Zhou to gain some momentum, so he wanted to marry a mere daughter of a provincial governor to become the queen.
A queen with no family background and a step-sister or even a deposed princess will not be able to compete with the young ladies who have been taught her since she was a child.
The two nuns felt bitter in their hearts. They originally just wanted to take this opportunity as a springboard, but they did not expect that they were directly assigned by His Majesty to follow Miss Ji's family for the rest of their lives.
But now that things have reached this point, they don't blame others and cheer up to serve their future master. After all, they have many tricks and can always help Miss Ji gain a foothold in this deep palace.
They were all mentally prepared at first, but when they came to this house and saw Ji Xiawan for the first time, the two mothers knew that they were wrong.
They have all been immersed in the harem for many years. It only takes a few glances to know whether a woman is still perfect. What's more, Miss Ji's belly has grown.
Seeing that the imperial physician beside them who was sent by His Majesty did not look surprised at all, they suppressed their surprise and felt joy in their hearts.
It would definitely be a scandal for a commoner woman to become pregnant before she got married, but their master was the future queen.
Her husband is the lord of the world. As long as he says a word, no one dares to say no.
What's more, I originally thought that Miss Ji was just the daughter of the governor, but I didn't expect that after meeting her, I realized that she was so good-looking. Although she acted timidly and looked like she had something on her mind, as time went by, they You can definitely watch this master stand up.
Their original suspicions were suppressed, and the two nuns worked hard to serve the Queen and the master who would follow her for the rest of their lives. Since His Majesty has affection for this queen, and the master is pregnant with a dragon seed, and they have this ability, they will definitely be able to make her. The master took root safely in the harem.
The two of them were very ambitious and already had a thousand ways to deal with the concubine in their minds in the future, and they must protect Miss Ji to give birth to the dragon fetus safely.
But I didn't expect that something would happen to Miss Ji in such a short period of time.
The two nuns are people who have been polished in the deep palace, but after all, they have only been here for a short time. They also know in their hearts that Miss Ji does not fully trust them. They want to fight for her but can't say it outright, so they have to go quickly. While waiting for the unconscious master, I went to ask Mrs. Zhou.
Unexpectedly, His Majesty came unexpectedly before waiting for half an hour.
Listening to the cry of the girl inside, who seemed to be pouring out all her grievances, the two nuns stood on the left and right and exchanged glances, which were full of joy.
Just cry, men like those who can cry.
Even if His Majesty was feeling distressed at this moment, he would still be crying to the point of being cried out by Miss Ji.
How did they know that even if Ji Xiawan didn't cry, Xin Jun would already love her very much.
"Okay, okay, just cry..."
The new king patted Ji Xiawan's back stiffly and tenderly, and his voice was gentle that those soldiers had never heard before.
After Ji Xiawan finished crying, her entire mind went blank.
When she woke up, it was the handsome man who was carefully wiping the tears on her face with a handkerchief, his eyes full of care.
She was stunned for a moment, and then she thought of something. She helped the bed and unloaded her luggage, "My lady has seen..."
Before his body completely bowed down, he was already supported by a pair of strong hands.
The new gentleman in front of her looked at her with a smile, "So polite?"
As he spoke, he helped the girl sit down on the bed. Looking at the girl next to her who was stiff and barely had the word "fear" written on her face, there was a smile in Wei Mingyan's voice.
"You don't act like we just met."
Ji Xiawan's already stiff body stiffened again. For her, that was not a good memory after all.
Although Wei Mingyan no longer hated him because of his proper arrangements, those embarrassing moments were so easy to forget.
While she was thinking, Ji Xiawan's cold hand was suddenly held carefully by the man. Ji Xiawan trembled, nervous and scared, but she didn't dare to resist. Her long eyelashes drooped and she almost cried, "Your Majesty..."
After all, she was raised by her mother. It was just that she was drugged the previous time, but now, they are not married yet...
Ji Xiawan was afraid but did not dare to resist. After all, the person in front of her had become the new king.
Just when she was about to cry again, Wei Mingyan held her hand, placed it on his chest, and led her to hammer it.
He smiled and said, "Why are you acting like a rabbit today? I still remember that you hit me like this when we first met."
Ji Xiawan subconsciously restrained her hands, but she still couldn't break away from Wei Mingyan's shackles, so she could only cry in a low voice, "It's my rudeness..."
"No, I'm not rude at all."
Wei Mingyan still said in a smiling voice, "That's when I opened my eyes and saw you. You looked just like the fairy the storyteller said. I couldn't take my eyes away. Then you got up and beat me. I was crying and beating, but I had no strength in my hands and it didn’t hurt at all, just like scratching an itch.”
"At that time, I felt guilty and thought you were good-looking. I thought I must marry you and take you home as my wife."
The man said and suddenly became serious, "I couldn't forgive you at the beginning. After I sent you back, I left you alone with your child. It took me so long to pick you up. Can you forgive me?"
After Xinjun finished speaking, he looked at Ji Xiawan expectantly and nervously, but found that she lowered her head and hesitated for a moment, but did not reach out to lift her face.
Ji Xiawan didn't know why she was crying. She had always thought that she didn't like to cry, but she couldn't help it in front of this man.
She was shedding silent tears when she suddenly heard the voice next to her stop. She pursed her lips and wanted to take a sneak peek, when the person next to her suddenly bent down and looked at her from below.
Ji Xiawan lowered her head, while Wei Mingyan lowered his head and looked up at her. The two met their eyes.
"You, why are you crying?"
Before she could react, Xinjun panicked. He hurriedly took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped her tears.
"Wanwan, can I call you that?"
Hearing the man's gentle voice, Ji Xiawan tried hard to hold back tears and nodded.
Xinjun breathed a sigh of relief, and while wiping her tears, he murmured, "I have already heard from Qing Ziru, don't worry, it's fine that I didn't know about your injustice in the past, but now that I have ascended the throne, those No one can escape."
Ji Xiawan was stunned for a moment, but she no longer lowered her head. She raised her eyes and looked at the person next to her. He was wiping her tears. When he saw her looking over, he immediately smiled.
She clenched her hands nervously, her lips moved again and again, and then she murmured what she wanted to say, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Don't call me Your Majesty, it sounds unfamiliar."
Wei Mingyan wiped her tears, went to hold her hand again, and said warmly, "Wanwan, I was just an ordinary bastard, and I spent the rest of my life in a muddleheaded way. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't be where I am today. ”
Ji Xiawan raised her eyelashes still stained with tears in surprise, "Because of me?"
What does this have to do with her?
"nature."
The handsome new king looked at her seriously, "When I first met you, you were dressed in white. You are our lady, and you look like a fairy from the sky."
His straightforward boast made Ji Xiawan blush, and even her heart seemed to beat fast.
She always thought that was her most embarrassing moment, but in the eyes of the people in front of her, wasn't that the case?
Wei Mingyan continued, "At that time, my body was dirty, my face was not clean, and I only had a few coins in my body. I could be in any kind of embarrassment. I wanted to be responsible, and I wanted to marry you, but how could I take care of myself like that? Gotta take action."
As he spoke, Ji Xiawan also thought about it.
Indeed, at that time, the new king in front of her was more embarrassed than she looked.
The tension in her heart gradually disappeared, and she quietly listened to the man's magnetic and pleasant voice as he continued to speak.
"I guessed that you were the daughter of the governor's family, and I knew that I was not worthy of you, but I wanted to marry you so much."
"I once looked at the bright moon in the sky and thought, you are just like the bright moon, bright and beautiful. I want to be responsible, but how can you be so kind and look like me?"
Ji Xiawan's face was no longer red, but hot.
When she was young, everyone knew that her parents were loving and her father doted on her mother. However, all she had ever seen was that her father compared people with poetry, and occasionally the two of them played the piano and painted together. She had never seen anything so straightforward.
What's more, this man never failed to praise her in every sentence, which made Ji Xiawan, who had been in the dust since her mother's death and no one said a kind word to her anymore, felt ashamed and couldn't help but feel joy in her heart.
She twitched her eyelashes nervously and spoke carefully, "Did you start an army later?"
"Yes." Xin Jun replied affirmatively, "My family is poor and I haven't studied much. What's more, I'm charged with deserting. It's impossible for me to sit in a high position openly and honestly. But I want to marry you. You will marry me in red makeup."
"Wanwan."
Wei Mingyan held Ji Xiawan's hand and saw her looking at him carefully, speaking every word with sonorous force.
"This world was originally created for you."
Ji Xiawan's heartbeat was beating like a drum and her tongue was numb.
He actually said it was for her.
So, does he actually care about her so much?
But, they only met once...
Ji Xiawan could no longer tell what she was thinking in her mind at the moment. She only knew that she was panicked, shy, and full of complexity.
"I know."
Wei Mingyan looked at her expression and said gently, "You hated me when we first met..."
"The way you looked at me was full of hatred and disgust. If you hadn't been incapable at that time, you would have killed me with one sword."
"You can't accept me now..."
"no……"
Listening to the man belittling himself, the girl who had been reticent finally couldn't help but speak. Although her voice was too low to be heard, Wei Mingyan was very close and it was quite clear.
Ji Xiawan's eyelashes trembled, but she managed to say what she wanted to say clearly, "I hated you at that time, but later you sent me back and helped me cover up, so I didn't hate you so much anymore."
"After that...I learned about what you did for me from Ziru..."
She was too nervous and her voice was a bit choppy. She finally finished speaking. When she timidly raised her eyes that were moister from crying to look at Wei Mingyan, she saw that his eyes were already bright.
"Wanwan, I thought you hated me."
The man held her hand excitedly, with joy in his eyes, "So you like me too?"
Ji Xiawan was stunned. When did she say she liked it?
"I, I mean..."
Wei Mingyan had already come to his own conclusion, "Since we are in love, it would be better to get married as soon as possible."
As he spoke, he carefully reached out his hand and before Ji Xiawan could react, he lightly touched her bulging belly.
"And our children, although I don't care about these, I want to bring you to me as soon as possible."
Ji Xiawan had no objection. She had been shut up in the small courtyard all day long, and the only person close to her was Ziru. Although her belly was getting bigger day by day, it happened to be winter, so she could wear more clothes to cover it up.
Yue is still young now. If she waits any longer and the child cannot be covered, there will definitely be rumors.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard someone around her say with some expectation, "I don't know if this is a little prince or a little princess. When the child is born, we must teach him well."
Ji Xiawan stiffened for a moment, "Prince?"
"yes."
Wei Mingyan said in a natural manner, "If our child is a boy, he will naturally be a prince."
Ji Xiawan no longer knew what to say.
She originally thought that being able to become a queen meant that the people in front of her valued her, but he actually wanted to establish a prince.
She should be happy, but being trapped in the countryside for seven years was enough to make Ji Xiawan cautious.
Her natal family's status was not high. If the newly-born child was established as a prince, and other powerful concubines gave birth to princes in the future, her child would be a ready target.
"Your Majesty, the child is still young, so he still has to look at his character and talent. If he is established as a prince now, other princes will be more outstanding than him in the future..."
"Then let our other sons go to other countries to become emperors." Wei Mingyan seemed to be addicted to this touch, and he carefully stroked the place where his children should sleep with fondness in his eyes.
Ji Xiawan is still a little worried. She has heard that the emperor's harem has three thousand beauties. It is not clear yet that the new emperor has just ascended the throne, but in the future there will be a draft to fill the harem. Even if one person gives birth to a child, it will not be the new emperor's. So easy.
But she didn't dare to say too much to Wei Mingyan now, for fear that he would think she was ungrateful.
The man in white clothes is still talking:
"Our child will definitely be the best. Even if nothing else is possible, with the guidance of the two of us, he will be a good king in the future."
"correct."
Xinjun suddenly thought of something and quickly looked at the future queen beside him, "Wanwan, I have been poor since I was a child and have never studied. Although I later learned to read military books, my handwriting is still too ugly to read. Please teach me how to write. Bar."
Ji Xiawan didn't understand why the topic jumped here, "Your Majesty, my handwriting is too feminine. If you want to learn from it, you should..."
"No, I just think your calligraphy is very grand and beautiful. Whenever I miss you and can't see you again, I will read your copybook and just treat it as if we have met."
Wei Mingyan paused suddenly after he finished speaking, and when he saw Ji Xiawan's confused gaze, he laughed, "You know, I miss you so much, so I asked Qing Ziru to bring some of the Buddhist scriptures you copied."
His expression was a little shaky, as if he was afraid that Ji Xiawan would be angry, "Just two times, don't be angry, I won't do it next time."
Everyone is married, so naturally there is no need for those vulgar things.
Ji Xiawan looked at his carefully apologetic look, and the defensiveness in her heart completely dissipated due to his words.
"If your Majesty really wants to learn calligraphy, I have a few calligraphy paintings here, all of which belong to Mr. Wang..."
"Call me your Majesty again."
Xinjun grabbed her hand and said softly, "Wanwan, you and I don't have to be so estranged from each other. From now on, please call me Mingyan."
Ji Xiawan stared at him blankly, knowing clearly that she shouldn't, but her face still turned red again, "Yes..."
"Come on, let's call for practice first."
The handsome new king looked at her with a smile and waited quietly for her to speak.
Ji Xiawan shrank back nervously, subconsciously twitching her eyelashes, and spoke softly, "Mingyan..."
Hearing this sentence, Xinjun immediately felt as if he had taken an elixir, and his cold face softened when he was fighting outside, "Hey, Wanwan."
Although Ji Xiawan just called her name, her heartbeat was faster than when Wei Mingyan touched her hand before.
She always felt that something was wrong with this.
She seems to really like the person in front of her...
***
The soldiers and generals wearing fine armor stood outside the Ji family gate with their chests raised and their heads held high. The people around them had already adapted to the new king, and the street had become lively again. At this moment, they quietly looked over here.
The servants of the Ji family ran to find Ji's father who was drinking and reciting poems with his old friends in a restaurant.
Ji's father received such great news today. After years of planning, he suddenly became the father-in-law of the country. Even though he usually kept his identity and posture, he couldn't help but be happy.
It happened that several of his friends came to congratulate him, and they went to drink and recite poems together.
As for why he is not at home, he has been struggling for so many years, so of course he wants to go out and meet people.
Sure enough, if he met a familiar face along the way, he would congratulate him first, and his words were almost full of envy. Before he even arrived at the restaurant, Ji's father was almost drunk.
While he was drinking to his heart's content, the servant of the mansion came to see him. It was such a cold day, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Sir, Your Majesty is here."
With just such a sentence, Ji's father was so excited that he drank the jar of wine and became sober.
He quickly asked someone to bring him water to cleanse his face and rinse his mouth. He also bought a pair of new clothes and put them on temporarily, fearing that the emperor would see him smelling of alcohol.
He quickly hurried back to the mansion, and saw the imperial guards who were still smelling of blood standing upright and surrounding his mansion. This posture looked like they were ransacking the house, which immediately frightened Ji's father. A cold sweat broke out.
Fortunately, he entered the house smoothly and was taken directly to the courtyard where his daughter had just been moved. There were a lot of people kneeling outside, and his new wife was kneeling at the front with Ji Xiating.
Ji's father's eyes were throbbing. Didn't he already order Ji Xiating to be locked up in the house?
If the person inside sees the former princess, will he feel better?
Now was not the time to think about this. Father Ji secretly glared at the new lady and knelt respectfully in front of them.
Seeing the eunuch go in and report, Father Ji couldn't help but think about it.
Why did the emperor directly enter his daughter's yard? This is unreasonable.
But Xinjun was born with a poor background, so it's normal not to care about these things, and it's a good thing for him. The last time I saw Wan'er, she was really well established. Xinjun came up from the bottom, and he must have never seen much of the market.
Now that he was fascinated by Wan'er when he met her before the wedding, it was a good thing. With the queen favored, he, the father-in-law of the country, could speak even more.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the curtain opened and a man in white came out, followed by the guards waiting at the door.
Seeing the pair of shoes stopped in front of him, Ji's father was very excited and said, "My lord, Ji Wu is here to pay homage to Your Majesty."
Behind her, Ji Xiating shouted again to "Kowtow to His Majesty." When she heard a magnetic voice shouting, she helped her mother stand up.
When he raised his eyes, he saw the appearance of the new king.
He is extraordinary and tall, much better than the King of Liang.
At first, she fully thought that Prince Liang was only one year older than her, and even though he had average looks, he would still be a handsome young man. However, she did not expect that Prince Liang was loved by the elders in the family because he was an only child, and he became a slippery boy from childhood. She has a round belly and is obsessed with women.
When she got married, the prince of Liang already had several concubines, not to mention the servants who served around him and were also pulled onto the bed by the prince.
Ji Xiating's inner fantasy about her future husband was completely shattered on her wedding night, so she only thought about giving birth to a legitimate son. As a result, Prince Liang passed away, and the crown prince became the new Prince of Liang and had to observe filial piety at the same time. He messed around with those concubines. , if she is pregnant, a bowl of abortion pills will be dropped, but she cannot be treated like this as a princess.
She had always secretly resented her unlucky fortune. She had finally made a filial piety but had not been able to conceive a child for a long time. But now that the previous dynasty was destroyed, Ji Xiating suddenly felt grateful when looking at the heroic new king in front of her.
Ji Xiating had never doubted her beauty. After all, her aunt had told her herself that she looked most like her. Even though Prince Liang brought beauties into the palace one after another, he did not neglect her.
What's more, she is still young now, two years younger than the sickly Ji Xiawan in the house, and she is better at pleasing men than she is. The new king has been fighting all the way up from mud legs. Without those cumbersome rules of a big family, she, as a As long as Ji Xiawan, the sister of the future queen, is determined, is she still afraid that she will not be able to get along with the new king?
Ji Xiating had all kinds of thoughts in her heart, but she still only glanced at him and lowered her eyes slightly, lowering her head quietly and dignifiedly.
Most of the concubines in Prince Liang's palace were beautiful and capable. Of course, Ji Xiating's ability to remain favored by Prince Liang was not only due to her beauty. From Wei Mingyan's point of view, she should feel pity for her at this moment.
As long as the new king takes one look, he will definitely leave a deep impression on him.
Wei Mingyan did take one look, and only one look. Ji Wu carefully welcomed the person into the lobby. Suddenly, the only people left outside Ji Xiawan's courtyard were the kneeling servant Ji Xiating and her daughter.
The new lady almost tore the veil, looking at the courtyard with her originally beautiful eyes full of jealousy, "I wish she could get this."
If she had known that Ji Xiawan would be able to recover one day, she should have killed her with medicine.
"Mother's words."
Ji Xiating still had a dignified smile on her face, but she glanced coldly at the servants around her. After making sure that they were far away and did not hear them, the coldness in her eyes faded slightly.
"My sister is not as good as usual now. Even if my mother has something in her heart, she has to hold it back."
The new lady also knew this, but she just couldn't feel happy. Her heart ached with jealousy. She pulled the veil and regretted, "If I had known that such a day would come, I would have asked her to marry that Liang." King."
It was okay if she didn't say it, but when she did, Ji Xiating felt unhappy.
If her mother hadn't been smart enough to marry that fat pig to Prince Liang, it would be Ji Xiawan who became Princess Liang now.
Perhaps, the one who is now canonized as the Queen of the Middle Palace is Ji Xiating, and there is nothing wrong with Ji Xiawan.
In her heart, she hated her mother for insisting on changing this marriage in the first place, and she also hated that Ji Xiawan survived after being ill for so long, but still had a cultivated and kind look on her face.
"Mom, actually it's not a bad thing for my sister to become a queen."
Ji Xiating turned sideways and analyzed to the new wife, "Sister has been weak since she was a child, and now she is even worse. She has taken medicine for so long and is still not feeling well. When she enters the palace, she will need a lot of energy just to handle palace affairs. Not to mention having to work hard to gain His Majesty’s favor.”
The new lady's eyes lit up, "Yes, this damn girl is not favored, so what if she is the queen."
Seeing that she didn't understand what she meant, Ji Xiating's eyes flashed with impatience, but she was no longer Princess Liang and could only rely on her mother's family, so she had to suppress her temper and continued, "My sister's biological mother died young, and General Zhou's family There is no one left for a long time, and we are the only ones she can rely on. When she is in poor health and there is no one around to help her, she will naturally ask her parents for help. "
"At that time, I can legitimately enter the palace to assist my sister..."
After hearing this, the new lady was stunned and said, "Ting'er, you have been married before."
"It doesn't matter if you have been married. Throughout the ages, women who have never been married have not entered the palace to serve. Mother can rest assured that with the relationship of sister, Ting'er is confident that His Majesty will welcome me into the palace."
Ji Xiating smiled slightly and said, "Mom, please go back first. I'll go in to visit my sister."
If she wants to enter the palace, she must have a good relationship with Ji Xiawan in the early stage.
The new lady still thinks this is not reliable. She looks at her daughter as if she regards the new king as a rough and rough man. She can fall for the bait with a little temptation. But the new king has been beaten all the way. How can he be so easy to provoke? .
But before she could say anything, Ji Xiating had already gone into the house minding her own business.
Ji Xiating smelled a strong smell of medicine as soon as she entered the room. A nun saw her inside and walked over to comfort her slightly, "Second Miss, the master has gone to bed."
"I'll take one look at my sister and leave."
After she finished speaking, the grandma in front of her had a look of embarrassment on her face, and she made a gesture to the maid on the side. The little maid immediately stepped forward, took out the silver coins from her arms, and stuffed them into her hands calmly.
A smile immediately appeared on Mammy's face, "I'll take the second young lady into the house and take a quick look before leaving."
Ji Xiating nodded reservedly, with some disdain.
Sure enough, no matter what happened to those who came out of the palace, it was as if they were obsessed with money when they saw the money.
She was led into the room and was not allowed to get close to the bed. She just glanced at it from a distance. All she could see was that Ji Xiawan had her eyes closed, her face was pale, and she looked weak.
Ji Xiating's eyes were even more disdainful. This sick man wouldn't have been lying on the bed like this when the emperor came.
She became more sure of her idea, smelled the smell of medicine in the room, and turned around with a smile on her face.
Looking at Ji Xia Ting's back, the nanny who had been watching over Ji Xia Wan carefully covered her up with the quilt. After watching her fall asleep, she quietly left the house.
The nanny outside dropped the money she had just received on the table, "I can't tell that this little Governor's Mansion is quite rich."
"Where is the money for them."
The nun who came out sneered, "The governor was just a poor scholar at the beginning. If he hadn't married the daughter of General Zhou and received her dowry, what would this mansion be like?"
"When Miss Zhou got married, she walked around the capital three times with ten miles of red makeup. I was just a little palace maid at that time, but I also heard from the eunuchs who were out on business that when the governor's office married a daughter of the Zhou family, it was like embracing a golden girl. When the baby returned home, who didn’t know that General Zhou was fighting everywhere and had a lot of savings, and he only had such an only daughter, so the entire family’s wealth was used as a dowry. "
The mama who collected the money thought of the dilapidated little courtyard she saw when she first arrived, with a cold look in her eyes. "It's okay to get married just after my wife passed away. I took advantage of the master's mother's dowry and treated the master so harshly. I will definitely do it." Make a good complaint to the emperor."
"That's not necessary."
The nanny took a sip of water and said softly, "Since your majesty can send us two to help the master, he must have known about the filth in this mansion for a long time. We can just watch how your majesty vents his anger on the master."
After she finished speaking, the other nun immediately showed a look of understanding.
Indeed, no matter how much they plan, these two slaves are still not as good as the emperor who is the most effective in speaking.
"Okay, let's take this silver to the kitchen and buy some food. Today I will add some dishes to the people waiting in the yard, so that they can be very energetic to serve."
"Hey, I'll go guard the master."
Although both of them are a bit older, when it comes to doing things for their master, they are always competing with each other.
Whether he can leave the palace and enjoy his old age in style depends on the master inside.
In the lobby
Wei Mingyan took a sip of tea and looked at Ji Wu, who although he had a beard, could still vaguely see his handsome appearance when he was young.
"Wanwan's appearance mostly resembles Master Ji."
As soon as he said these words, the hidden joy in Ji Wu's eyes became even heavier, "Yes, Wanwan has been very much like Wei Chen since she was a child, so Wei Chen also loves her very much."
Hearing the last sentence, Xinjun smiled inexplicably, and then he gently lowered the tea cup and said softly, "I can also see that Master Ji must love Wanwan very much."
"I also heard General Zhao say that Wanwan's dowry has been prepared since she was born, but is there such a thing?"
Ji Wu suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, but he really didn't dare to lie to the murderous new king in front of him, "Yes, the wife of the former minister did indeed bear the dowry early..."
But the dowry was taken away by the new lady after she entered the house.
"That's good. When Mother Wanwan had a good relationship with Mrs. Zhao, she once showed her a list. There were several treasures in it that were not even in our treasury. It is said that they were all Mrs. Zhou's dowry and were left to her beloved daughter. "
The new king stood up as he spoke, "I have already welcomed the Queen Mother and the eldest princess to the capital. When the time comes, I can still appreciate it with them. What does Master Ji say?"
Cold sweat began to break out on Ji Wu's forehead, "Yes, yes..."
How could he know what was in that list? After so many years, the things Mrs. Zhou left behind had long been used by the new wife. The new king only said that there were several items in it that were Mrs. Zhou's dowry, but he did not say which ones they were.
Ji's father couldn't ask the new king for the order. In order to pass the test, he had to find out Mrs. Zhou's original dowry and give all those treasures to Ji Xiawan as dowry.
Whether it hurts or not is another matter, let's talk about that list. Where can he find it after so many years?
"Okay, Master Ji, please get busy, I have to go back too."
