Lu Qingtang cleared his throat, breaking the awkwardness among the four of them.
She said: "Actually, in the final analysis, this incident happened because of me. Ji Jianing did despicable things and even bullied a child. As a mother, I naturally can't stand it. I think if it was your child who was bullied, you wouldn't either." I’ll just sit back and watch.”
She said and looked at Ji Wuhen.
Ji Wuhen nodded, "I know what the princess means. In fact, this matter is all because my niece is too willful and has been spoiled in an unruly manner since she was a child. If they had restrained themselves at the time, what happened later would not have happened. This I understand very well that if my wife was humiliated by others, I would go out of my way to vent her anger on her behalf."
"So, I am here to apologize to you two again, and hope that the prince and princess will not be so angry. This matter ends here. I think their family also knows that they were wrong, and they will never dare to make the second mistake again. This time, I’ll do it first out of respect.”
With that said, Ji Wuhen picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
Lu Qingtang glanced at Mo Zeshen, and the two of them also picked up the wine glasses. Since she drank too much yesterday, the dizzy taste was not good, so she only took a small sip.
Next, Mo Zeshen started pouring wine into Ji Wuhen. Ji Wuhen couldn't resist, one drink after another. Ji Wenzhan didn't know how to drink, so he just sat and ate.
The same goes for Lu Qingtang. She picked up her chopsticks and picked up the dishes on the plate at will. Unintentionally, she saw Ji Wenzhan looking at her. She stared back without fear, her eyes even wider than his.
Finally, Ji Wenzhan couldn't stand this childish game and lowered his head.
Lu Qingtang was a little complacent. She thought she had won.
Continuing to hold the food in front of me, I remembered sneaking into the room with the medicine cabinet yesterday to peek at the letters. Ji Wenzhan was very smart. He immediately concluded that he had secretly read the letter, so he ran over to question him. Not only that, he even made up a lie that was missing something in an attempt to deceive himself.
But it was obvious that Ji Wuhen probably didn't know about this. He cherished his wife so much, how could he tolerate others getting involved in the letters left by his wife.
But when he thought that her mother Hua Rou was probably the same person as the Hua Rou mentioned by King Zhennan, Lu Qingtang felt extremely awkward.
Although as a member of the 21st century, Lu Qingtang could accept a woman's remarriage and approved of it with both hands, but when she thought that her mother was someone else's true love, she felt like she was digging her feet into the ground.
And the most important point is that she doesn't know what to say to Ji Wenzhan now.
She had been rehearsing that scene in her mind all afternoon.
"Ji Wenzhan, you never expected that I am actually your sister..."
No, this is a bit like swearing.
"Ji Wenzhan, you know, you actually have a sister, and that's me."
No, this seems a bit unceremonious.
"Ji Wenzhan, we are actually the children of the same mother..."
No, it’s a bit confusing to hear this.
…
It is really difficult to say it in a way that sounds convincing and is not so sensational that it is embarrassing.
She was worried and didn't notice that Mo Zeshen put some food in front of her.
He looked at her with concern, "Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Why do you look a little uneasy?"
Lu Qingtang shook his head, "It's okay, I just didn't sleep well yesterday. I'll just go back and get some sleep. You can eat yours, my appetite is not very good."
Facing a table full of dishes, she couldn't cheer up.
There was another one beside her, and this was the most important one. She didn't know what to say.
Two days ago, he supported him in following the emperor's policy of reducing vassal vassals, framed the Zhennan Palace with rebellion, and then destroyed it. Now a brother pops up for no reason. Who can bear this?
"Mo Zeshen, let me tell you, I have an older brother, his name is Ji Wenzhan."
Haha, don’t guess, you won’t believe it.
"Mo Zeshen, my mother actually had a son before, and coincidentally his name is Ji Wenzhan."
Haha, what a coincidence.
"Mo Zeshen, let me tell you the truth, I just found out that I have an older brother, he is Ji Wenzhan."
Qiao's mother opens the door for Qiao, Qiao is home!
Lu Qingtang really convinced himself, why did he have to run into other people's houses to find trouble?
Now it's okay, I found a brother for myself, and I'll see how it ends.
Feeling melancholy in her heart, she couldn't help but pour all the wine glass she had taken into her mouth, and then asked the maid next to her to pour more for her.
Mo Zeshen immediately stopped her when he saw this, "You already drank a lot yesterday, you can't drink any more."
Lu Qingtang pushed him away, "You care about me, I'm so annoying. You have to control me even if I drink. What's wrong with me drinking some wine? I'm not drinking poison."
With that said, she drank all the wine poured by the maid.
When she walked out of the flower hall, she was in a state of chaos. She was swaying as she walked, as if she might fall at any moment. But she is also sober at the same time and understands that there are some things that can be said and some things that should be kept in her heart.
Looking back at Ji Wenzhan, she sighed and said, "You have caused misery to both of us."
Ji Wenzhan asked quickly: "What do you mean? Why did I harm you?"
Lu Qingtang's smile and silence made him couldn't help but ask, "You have said it clearly. Why do you mean that I have hurt you so much? Why do you only speak half of it? It's so vicious."
Ji Wuhen stopped her from the side, "Stop saying a few words. Didn't you notice that she was already drunk? How can you take drunken words seriously?"
He also drank a lot, and when he walked he felt like he was in the clouds.
Lu Qingtang smiled bitterly and let Mo Zeshen pick him up.
Back at his residence, Mo Zeshen put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt. Su Mu and Kou Dan hurriedly made the sobering soup and drank it after it was cooked. After drinking the hangover soup, Lu Qingtang went back to sleep.
At this time, Mo Zeshen returned to his residence, put on night clothes, and quietly disappeared into the night.
He came near Ji Wuhen's study, used the power of the big tree next to him to jump onto the roof, went through the transom on the top and landed on the beam, and then jumped from the beam to the ground.
Mo Zeshen took out the fire dumplings he had prepared in advance and began to flip them around in the study.
He wanted to find "proof" that King Zhennan was rebelling, and directly sent troops to destroy him, so that he could return to Yanling earlier. If not, he would definitely not have stayed in this place for so long. Seeing his woman being humiliated with his own eyes, Mo Ze wished he could kill Ji right now.
Since someone is determined to frame the Zhennan Palace, they will definitely provide evidence to make him fall into the trap, so he has no choice but to use his plan.
Lu Qingtang was right when he said that even if it wasn't him, Mo Zeshen, there would be someone else to do it, so he didn't have to feel guilty about it.
He opened the bottom drawer of the small cabinet next to his desk and found a brand new letter. There was no signature on the outside of the letter. When he opened it, he saw a conspiracy letter written by the "King of Zhennan" to the magistrate of Nanzhou.
From such a conspicuous location, one could tell that it had been arranged in advance. With this "evidence", he had one more reason to send troops.
Mo Zeshen kicked the letter into his arms and blew out the candles at the same time. Just when he was about to climb onto the beam, he saw a sudden fire bursting into the sky outside.
Oops, I fell into a trap!
