When Ji Wanrong heard this, his whole body trembled, fearing that he and the original owner would not show any difference and make Mo Jiecheng suspicious.
She forced herself to stare into his eyes, without any timidity in her eyes.
Hearing Mo Jiecheng's cold voice, he continued: "I have just discovered now that you have suddenly become smarter. Your methods have become more numerous and vicious, but you are still so despised by me!"
After Mo Jiecheng said this, he turned around and left without hesitation.
He was walking angrily alone, with resentment rising from his back.
Ji Wanrong stood there, recalling what Mo Jiecheng had just said, feeling a little surprised in his heart.
She originally thought that Mo Jiecheng, who had grown up in a military camp, would be slow to deal with intrigues, but she did not expect that he remained naturally alert and sharp in matters other than Ji Yunyao.
It can be seen that Gu Mingyue is deliberately making things difficult, and it can also be seen that she is taking advantage of the situation and doing it deliberately.
But Mo Jiecheng hated her and it wouldn't hinder her in any way. She didn't care.
As long as she has the skills in her hands, the confidence in her heart, and the way out at her feet, those who look down on her now will blame her in the future if they can't protect everything.
But when she looked at Mo Jiecheng's back, she suddenly remembered that he seemed to have something to do.
Ji Wanrong didn't think about it for a while, so she left directly.
By the time Ji Wanrong and Jian Qing returned to his Chuyun Garden, Chongzhou had already brought in boxes of dowry.
The boxes of dowry looked like they were very heavy.
In addition to dowry, Chongzhou also brought many servants.
These servants were supposed to come to her yard last night, but when they heard that they were going to serve the ugly princess Ji Wanrong, who was rejected by the prince, they all found ways to evade it.
But now it was Chongzhou who came to do it in person and gathered all the people.
When Chongzhou said this, Ji Wanrong didn't listen carefully. She looked straight at the several lacquered solid wood boxes placed in the yard.
Ji Wanrong sniffed hard, and she could smell that the box was made of fine sandalwood, with exquisite patterns carved on it. It looked simple and solemn, and was worth a lot of money.
It seems that Nanyang Houfu still treats Ji Yunyao sincerely, but it is a pity that these good things have now fallen into her hands.
Ji Wanrong suddenly became happy.
She opened the lids of the sandalwood boxes one by one. She originally wanted to take a look at all the gold ingots, silver ingots, pearls, agate, etc. inside.
But when she opened the first box of dowry, she felt something was wrong.
Although there are rows of gold ingots in the sandalwood box, there are only a few in each row and there is only one layer.
Below this level, it is separated by red wooden boards.
Ji Wanrong suddenly felt a little bad.
She looked up at Zhongzhou and asked without leaving any trace, "Are these dowries moved from the palace's warehouse? Or from Lady Gu's yard?"
Chongzhou looked at Ji Wanrong's somewhat unhappy expression and replied as usual: "Although Lady Gu is in charge of the backyard, this dowry box was moved into the warehouse on the day of the wedding, and today my subordinates also brought people to move it out from the warehouse in person. .”
"What about the store title deed and so on? Are these things stored separately in the warehouse, or are they put in the box?" Ji Wanrong asked again.
"It's put in a box because I didn't see it in the warehouse. Princess, what's wrong? When I moved it, I felt that this box is still heavy. Why don't we pry open the lower layer of wood and take a look? Maybe The good stuff is still down there!”
Ji Wanrong took a deep breath and smiled at him, "No need, thank you for your hard work today."
She didn't even need to look to know that there were stones hidden under the wooden boards.
Since the dowry was moved into the warehouse on the day of the wedding, it was impossible for Gu Mingyue to touch it. Mo Jie walked in and out of the city and did not bother to touch her dowry.
Only Ji Yunyao, maybe the Nanyang Marquis Mansion sincerely helped Ji Yunyao prepare the dowry, but Ji Yunyao knew that it was not her who would marry him in the end, but him.
Ji Yunyao must have bought all the dowry, made a compartment, and put some things on it to support the scene.
She must have thought that the human skin mask was poisonous anyway, and the original owner would not be able to survive the wedding night, and no one would care about the dowry after death, so she acted so boldly.
Ji Yunyao, she is really good.
Ji Wanrong took a deep breath, thinking that she still had to go back to her parents' home, and not just for the dowry.
She was angry in her heart, which made Ji Wanrong feel hungry. Feeling the cramping in her stomach, she spoke to Zhongzhou again.
"Your prince said that he would serve me well and well. Because of Gu Mingyue, I haven't eaten my breakfast this morning. Can you please prepare lunch for me now?"
"Of course! I'll get ready now!"
After Chongzhou finished speaking, he saluted her and left, while Ji Wanrong also arranged for the servants in the yard to leave.
Then he put all the gold and silver jewelry on the first floor of the dowry box into his own space.
After a short wait, Chongzhou personally delivered lunch. Ji Wanrong couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw how he did it himself.
Jian Qing took the food box and placed the contents on the round table. The food was freshly made, steaming hot and smoking, and the alluring aroma penetrated Ji Wanrong's nose.
Ji Wanrong looked at the crab soup, roasted mutton, and three fresh noodles on the table. He swallowed and his appetite was whetted. He was about to use his chopsticks, but heard Chongzhou hesitate.
"Princess, the master said you can take these if you want. You need to give him all the potions and pills you promised him before."
Only then did Ji Wanrong understand the reason why Chongzhou did everything himself.
She thought that she needed to go back to her parents' home and needed Mo Jiecheng's consent, so she nodded towards Chongzhou.
"The potion needs to be mixed. After I finish eating, I will deliver it to your prince personally and discuss some matters with him."
After Ji Wanrong said this, Chongzhou was unwilling to leave. He only said that he would wait for Ji Wanrong to have a good meal and then take her to the study to meet Mo Jiecheng.
Ji Wanrong had no choice but to let Chongzhou stand at the dinner table like a piece of wood.
After he had eaten and drank enough, Ji Wanrong followed him to Mo Jiecheng's study.
The courtyard in Mojiecheng is very large, and the courtyard is some distance away from Ji Wanrong's courtyard.
Not having a good rest all day made Ji Wanrong a little tired. After she paused at the door for a while, she knocked on the door and walked in, prompted by Chongzhou's eyes.
When he saw Mo Jiecheng sitting behind the desk, Ji Wanrong squeezed the specially repackaged iodine and ibuprofen in his hand, and planned to mention the matter of returning to his parents' home.
Unexpectedly, a horrified voice suddenly sounded in the study: "My dear mother...Jie Cheng, your new princess looks too ugly!"
