"Mom! Mom, please stop hitting me!"
"grandmother--"
Mrs. Ji gave Ji's father and mother two crutches, and then stopped after Ji Shu's dissuasion.
She gasped for air, threw away her crutch, and stroked Ji Shu's face distressedly.
"My dear, my Min...Shu'er, tell grandma that you really want to marry the champion!"
"Grandma, I think."
"Okay! Grandma has agreed to this marriage, and grandma has agreed to it for you!"
Ji's father's eyes widened and he didn't care to show his teeth, "Mom! This, how unbecoming is this!"
"you shut up!"
Mrs. Ji yelled, she pointed at Father Ji and scolded: "Do you really want to imitate your father and trade his daughter for a cold memorial arch? Do you want your daughter to become the second sister of yours? If you really If you think so, don’t call me mother again!”
Madam Ji coughed and her face turned red. Ji Shu supported her and said worriedly:
"Grandma, I'll help you take a rest outside for a while while you calm down first."
Mrs. Ji held her hand and passed by Ji's mother when she left. Mrs. Ji stopped, stared at her and asked in a dumb voice:
"Have you forgotten what I told you last time?"
"..."
Ji's mother pursed her lips.
Mrs. Ji's face was full of tears, "I have regretted what happened back then for most of my life. Just look at my fate now. If you continue to be stubborn, you will be like me!"
Putting down the last warning, Madam Ji led Ji Shu and walked out.
"Shu'er and I will live together in the next few days! As for you two, go and prepare the dowry! The emperor personally bestows Shu'er and Li, just pretend that there is no such thing as the previous one! Shu'er wants to marry in glory! Yan Yan Mom, give me orders from everyone in the house! Anyone who dares to be lazy will be kicked out of Ji Mansion!"
"Yes! Old lady!"
Mrs. Ji's attitude was decisive. Even if Ji's father and mother were not happy, they had to keep her mouth shut.
In fact, Mrs. Ji's words caused quite a stir in their hearts.
Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and Qi Ye left Ji Mansion and headed straight for the palace.
Emperor Tianzhi was reading excerpts in the imperial study. When he heard Qi Ye asked for an audience, he summoned him alone in the side hall.
"Aiqing is so anxious, but something happened in the Beijing camp?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, everything is fine in the capital camp. I have a request to ask the Emperor for something."
"What's the important matter? Is it worth taking a break and running away?"
Emperor Tianzhi asked with a smile.
Qi Ye nodded slightly and said solemnly: "Weichen wants to ask the emperor to grant a marriage. Let Weichen marry the Lord Wenyu County as his wife."
"ah?!"
Emperor Tianzhi was extremely stunned, and the people waiting in the side hall also looked at each other, dumbfounded.
"Qi Ye, say it again! Who do you want to marry? You want to marry Wen Yu!"
"That's right. The county master is now bedridden, and there are constant rumors in the capital. After all, it was Wei Chen who got the county master into trouble. Wei Chen is willing to take care of her for the rest of his life."
It took Emperor Tianzhi a long time to find his voice and reminded him seriously:
"Think carefully! Although she didn't consummate her marriage with the boy from the Qi family, they have been a couple for seven years!"
"All the past events are not important. Weichen only knows that it has ruined her reputation. She is kind to Weichen, but Weichen is alone, and only marrying her can make up for it."
Emperor Tianzhi fell silent and stared at Qi Ye's expression carefully.
Although there was no hint of friendship, Qi Ye, a cold-blooded person, suddenly said that he wanted to marry Ji Shu. Is it really just to repay a favor?
Thinking of the Ji Mansion behind Ji Shu, Emperor Tianzhi became suspicious.
"Even if you feel sorry for Wen Yu, you won't use this method to get it done. I'm here to tell the world to clear the name of you two."
"The emperor bestows Ji Shu and Li, but not everyone in the world may be as wise as the emperor. Even if you issue an edict to the world, I'm afraid the public opinion will not be better than it is now."
"I'm afraid I'll embarrass you..."
Emperor Tianzhi said meaningfully: "And Wen Yu may not be willing..."
"Wei Chen has discussed it with Mr. Ji first, and now there is only one way to protect Wenyu County Lord. Wei Chen feels embarrassed. After all, the Qi family owes the county Lord a lot, and Wei Chen, as the son of the Qi family, should also bear it. "
Emperor Tianzhi faked a smile and said, "Since you have said so, I don't want to persuade you. I will ask the cabinet to draft the decree for the marriage and it will be issued tomorrow."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The next day, Eunuch Cao Yan and Cao Cao came to Ji Mansion with the imperial edict of marriage. Ji's father and his party came, but Ji Shu was not seen.
"Master Ji, I wonder where the county master is? It will be difficult to read this imperial edict without the county master."
"My little girl is sick and can't get out of bed now."
"I see, then please ask Madam to take over the order on your behalf!"
Eunuch Cao began to read out the imperial edict. Due to the large array when he arrived, passers-by outside the mansion couldn't help but prick up their ears and eavesdrop.
This is amazing!
The emperor actually granted marriage to Wenyu County Lord and Champion Hou! !
The former siblings and eldest brother, this is really messing up Tsunasa!
The good people were standing around the Ji Mansion, just waiting to hear carefully before going out to talk nonsense.
Not long after Eunuch Cao and others left, Xitao came out with the servants of the house and began to scatter silver coins and distribute candies and snacks around the house.
Some people laughed maliciously.
"You girls said you were innocent with your former eldest uncle. Now you are very happy to have been granted a marriage..."
The speaker threw away the snack in his hand and said: "Taking such dirty things will bring bad luck!"
Xitao's eyes widened, she pointed at the person and shouted: "Come here! Catch him!"
Suddenly several big men rushed over and captured the man.
"This is incredible! The Ji Mansion is beating someone! I want to report it to the official! Ah!"
Xitao rushed forward, punched and kicked him, and knocked him unconscious.
She said angrily: "It's because of people like you! My young lady is seriously ill!"
"You are the ones who spread the rumors that she has an affair with the champion, and you are the ones who got married! You are the ones who forced my young lady to get engaged with the champion for the sake of her innocence, but you are the ones who gossip! Isn't it true that Yan Heqing in the Great Qinhai is asking you people to live in the capital now? It’s so comfortable! I’m so full that I can’t live my life without staring at other people’s affairs every day!”
"Tie him up and take him to Shuntian Mansion! Let me tell you! Who dares to say such a thing again in the future! Ji Mansion will not let him go!"
Several strong men were ordered to drag them away. At the same time, a few gossips were accurately picked out from the crowd.
The arresters were all tall and tall. At first glance, they looked like they came from the military camp. If you thought about it carefully, you would know that they were from the Champion House.
A large crowd of people watching the excitement immediately dispersed in front of Ji Mansion.
The kind-hearted people accepted the reward and expressed their sincere congratulations.
Xitao's eyes turned red, "According to your auspicious words, I also hope that this marriage can get rid of my young lady's illness as soon as possible. My young lady was in Wu Dingbo's Mansion... It was already hard enough. I don't want her to escape from the quagmire with difficulty. Listen to these dirty words!”
After that, he wiped away his tears and returned to his house.
The news spread quickly, and the news that Ji Shuyu was seriously ill was mixed in with it. In addition, soldiers from the Five Cities Military and Horse Division were patrolling the capital, arresting people who were rumored to be disorderly. There was really no trace of Ji Shu. Shu Li's words spread.
At the same time, Wu Dingbo Mansion
"Snapped--"
"ah!"
Qi Chengxu knocked away the tea cup that Ji Feifei handed him over, and the scattered porcelain fragments made Ji Feifei scream.
Qi Chengxu turned a deaf ear and strode forward to pinch Mother Cui's wrist.
He asked with a ferocious expression: "What did you just say! Say it again!"
Mother Cui trembled her lips and repeated with a grimace:
"Your Majesty, your Majesty has granted marriage to the eldest uncle and Wenyu County Lord... The imperial edict has been issued to the Ji Mansion this morning -"
Qi Chengxu was stunned, and he took a few steps back and fell on his feet.
Tea leaves were scattered everywhere on the ground. After being washed three or four times, the tea leaves were already green and turned black.
Qi Chengxu couldn't believe it.
His wife is going to marry his eldest brother?
