Otherwise, frequent visits would cause discord between their husbands and wives and dissatisfaction at home. Wouldn't this be a disservice to their friends?
Thinking of this, the eldest princess couldn't help but envy Wang Xiu again. Even though Lu Yunhong looked at her like a ball, she was afraid that someone would abduct her and run away. But he loved Wang Xiu's family and friends as much as possible, not because they had more.
It is extremely rare for someone to come into contact with Wang Xiu, conflict with him, and cause trouble.
The eldest princess drank a glass. The wine was mellow and fragrant, with a sweet aftertaste and a faint scent of osmanthus. It was truly a fine wine.
Her eyelids twitched, her mind wrinkled, and she asked, "What's the name of this wine? It sure tastes good."
Ji Yunwei said: "It's called Yue Meiren, and it's only brewed on August 15th every year. At that time, the sweet-scented osmanthus is fragrant, and merchants use it to get good luck."
The eldest princess said, "I'll buy some back later, and I'll drink it with Axiu when I have time."
Ji Yunwei said: "I have bought it for my sister-in-law a long time ago, but she only drinks it occasionally. Your Highness must have never drank it with her."
The eldest princess said worriedly: "Axiu doesn't like drinking with me very much."
Ji Yunwei said with a smile: "Maybe you are afraid of losing your temper. Your Highness will be a guest in the mansion. If the host is drunk, it will be difficult to greet him."
The eldest princess felt a little disappointed, but after saying this, she felt that it was a little less beautiful.
To Axiu... she never treated her as an outsider, or even as a guest.
To her, Axiu was like her sister. Even Lu Yunhong, she never treated him as an outsider.
The eldest princess said nothing and continued to drink.
This cup was slightly bitter, and she frowned impatiently.
Ji Yunwei realized later, had he said the wrong thing?
He gave the eldest princess a piece of snack and said: "Then next time we go there, ask my sister-in-law to open a jar, and I will drink it with your highness."
The eldest princess looked at Ji Yunwei and saw that he was smiling slightly, with a nervous expression and a flattering look in his eyes. Although it was not obvious, she could feel that Ji Yunwei was not at ease with her, for example, he was worried about her.
Suddenly turned around.
The imperial power was supreme, so it was not surprising to be worried like this, but she just felt that from the moment she was born, in her whole life, maybe she could only reach out to her brother so that he would not suddenly overreact and think that she was angry.
If you do it, you won't worry about her secretly murderous intention.
Cao Xu, the consort back then, was the man crawling at her feet. After three years of marriage, he didn't dare to sleep next to her. They rarely had sex. After waking up, the place next to the bed was empty and cold.
So much so that her heart was getting colder year by year, and even now when she thinks about it, there is no trace of joy or reluctance. All she has is just plain memories and the disappointment of not wanting to make the same mistakes again.
The eldest princess drank another drink, this time in a hurry, showing a hint of determination and joy.
But the next moment, Ji Yunwei quickly held her hand and said: "Your Highness, this is not how you drink wine. You will get drunk if you drink like this. Let me tell you..."
The eldest princess slapped his hand away and said angrily: "Shut up, this little wine can't make me drunk. You should worry about yourself."
Ji Yunwei felt the back of his hand was slightly numb, and the pain was a little hot: "..."
Forget it, I can't persuade him, so he'd better drink less.
In this way, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess can be helped back later.
However, things went against expectations, and not long after, the two sisters singing the ditty came.
The eldest princess was not displeased by her fine appearance, sweet smile, and sweet singing voice, and even took the initiative to order two ditties.
Seeing this, Ji Yunwei closed his eyes with relief and listened to the song. He drank a few more drinks without realizing it. It was not until the eldest princess rewarded them that they left, and he finally woke up as if from a dream.
The wine jug was already empty, Ji Yunwei's face turned red, and he was at a loss and said: "Your Highness, how about we go back."
The eldest princess looked at his red cheeks, smiled and joked: "I saw that you were very drunk just now. You also drank a lot of wine. Can you still walk?"
Ji Yunwei nodded quickly, and when he stood up, he felt dizzy because he was in such a hurry.
The eldest princess thought he was going to fall, so she quickly helped him.
As a result, Ji Yunwei quickly stood up straight and said: "Your Highness, I'm fine!"
His tense expression startled the eldest princess, and she immediately said angrily: "It's okay, it's okay. Why are you so surprised? This princess regards you as a friend, and I have no intention of coveting you!"
Ji Yunwei was confused and said "Ah", but then he suddenly came back to his senses, his cheeks turned red, and he explained helplessly and ashamedly: "Where are you thinking, Your Highness? I feel that I am a foreign minister, I
Not worthy!"
"For example, His Highness just helped me, and I felt that I fell to death. I deserved it. How could I trouble Your Highness?"
"As for what your Highness said about coveting? That's really embarrassing to me. How could I think in that direction? If Your Highness likes me, then the river will flow backwards and the sun will rise in the west."
Ji Yunwei said, having sobered up for the most part, feeling so dejected that he could hardly lift his head.
The eldest princess was amused by him and said happily: "Is it as serious as you said?"
Ji Yunwei said: "Of course, Your Highness cannot be blasphemed in my heart."
The eldest princess hummed softly: "But I regard you as a friend, and you stick to your status. Aren't you going to make me sad?"
When Ji Yunwei heard this, he was surprised and happy, but he said distressedly: "I don't want to stick to this, but if I am disrespectful to His Highness, my father will beat me to death."
The eldest princess said: "Would you be disrespectful to Axiu?"
Ji Yunwei said quickly: "How is that possible? I wouldn't dare to say it again."
The eldest princess chuckled and said: "It seems that you are not only afraid of your father, you are also afraid of Lu Yunhong."
Ji Yunwei didn't refute, but looked a little resentful. He must have suffered a lot from Lu Yunhong's fault.
The eldest princess said with a smile: "You know who Lu Yunhong is most afraid of. If you were bullied, wouldn't you go to Axiu to complain?"
Ji Yunwei said: "That is of no use. They are husband and wife after all. Do you think my sister-in-law should love me more or love Yunhong more? Of course it is Yunhong."
"And it's nothing if I feel a little wronged. Yun Hong knows the severity and he won't kill me. But if I file a complaint, the consequences will be much more serious."
The eldest princess said strangely: "You trust Lu Yunhong very much."
Ji Yunwei said: "This is the same as His Highness trusting his sister-in-law. Even if there are many difficulties and dangers outside, he still knows that there is a place where he can avoid the sharp edges. I think that place is the Lu Mansion."
This sentence was exactly what was said into the heart of the eldest princess.
Even though there are all kinds of calculations and conflicts outside, if you have to risk everything to fight, you still know that there is a place where you can retreat and hide, where you can take a breath and repair, and that place is none other than the Lu Mansion.
The eldest princess said to Ji Yunwei: "We agree on this."
Ji Yunwei smiled happily: "Right, I know that's what His Highness thinks."
With an innocent tone and a childish smile, Ji Yunwei at this time was as pure as a piece of white paper.
The eldest princess suddenly felt melancholy. There was still a very obvious difference between her and Ji Yunwei. Even if she knew that the Lu family was the last safe haven, she would probably never step into it in her life.
Not knowing how to rely on it is two different things.
But Ji Yunwei was obviously planning to enter the Lu family.
The eldest princess's eyes suddenly moved and she said, "Ji Yunwei, are you stupid?"
Ji Yunwei was confused: "What?"
The eldest princess said earnestly: "Please marry Lu Yunzhu and become a true member of the Lu family."
Ji Yunwei, who seemed to be struck by lightning: "..."
Are you kidding me?
Yunzhu?
It would be better to hit the wall directly.
When he thought of Yunzhu looking at him with a look like "Are you still my brother Ji?", he already wanted to die.
