Zhuang Guogong wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed and agreed.
I wonder if my daughter will be able to bear it in the future if she knows the truth...
After Zhuang Ke jumped from the carriage, he first went to the Dingbei Palace. After learning that Qi Jue had not returned, he ran to the military camp.
"Great nephew! Great nephew!"
Zhuang Ke ran and shouted, but it was Ji Jingxue who came out to pick him up, "Young Master, why are you here at this hour?"
"I'm here to see my nephew. Has he come to the military camp?"
Seeing that he was sweating profusely from running, Ji Jingxue handed him a sweat towel, shook his head and said, "His Highness did not come to the military camp today. Didn't His Highness go to help with the running banquets held by Yongyi Marquis Mansion today?"
Zhuang Ke wiped his sweat casually and said, "Forget it, my sister ruined a good dinner party. I'm afraid the nephew and daughter-in-law who got it will also run away. My nephew's life is so miserable!"
Ji Jingxue took the sweat towel back from his hand, wiped the sweat off his face carefully, and asked, "What's going on?"
"Actually, I'm not very sure. I was delayed in the Duke's Mansion for a long time. When I finally brought my father and mother there, I bumped into my eldest nephew and sister who were kicked out by the Yuan family.
The third girl of the Yuan family secretly told me that it was my elder sister who told the Yuan family at the banquet that they wanted to recognize Miss Yan as their goddaughter. The eldest nephew had done so many things, and everyone in the Yuan family knew that he wanted to marry Miss Yan. As a result, my sister
By turning around like this, aren't you just openly embarrassing the Yuan family?"
If the Yuan family hadn't been well-educated, they would have been so angry that they would have just beaten Concubine Zhuang and the others out with sticks, which would have been relatively light.
Ji Jingxue understood and frowned: "What Concubine Zhuang did today was behind His Highness's back. If His Highness knew that she had this intention, he would definitely not let her attend today's flowing water banquet."
Originally, he wanted to let Concubine Zhuang go there so that the Yuan family could gain more face, but in the end, he didn't lose face or anything like that. Instead, outsiders were allowed to see the joke between the two families.
Of course, the biggest impact of this incident was on Yan Mingzhu.
After all, Qi Jue's identity is there, who dares to seek death and criticize him?
But Yan Mingzhu is different. Others will only sneer at her behind, saying that she is crazy for wanting to be like a dragon and a phoenix. She is a ruined beauty, but she is still trying to be Princess Dingbei, but she is slapped in the face by Princess Zhuang.
Bad words.
Zhuang Ke was so worried that his hair straightened, "Jingxue, what should I do? This matter is not just Miss Yan herself, even I, an outsider, am angry just listening to it. Shouldn't he want my nephew?"
Are you going to be alone all your life?"
"No, if His Highness could be stumped by such a thing, how could he have made it this far."
Ji Jingxue had great confidence in Qi Jue, but all Zhuang Ke could think about was bad things, "My eldest nephew left in the Yuan family on a horse chasing the wind. He was neither in the palace nor in the military camp. Could it be that he just couldn't think about it for a moment?"
,Are you doing something stupid?"
The more he thought about it, the more likely he felt that this was possible. Zhuang Ke hurriedly pulled Ji Jingxue to find someone.
Ji Jingxue felt helpless and amused at the same time. She pulled him and said, "His Royal Highness has not returned to the palace, nor is he in the military camp. If my guess is correct, he should be in the Yuan family now."
Zhuang Ke was dumbfounded, "Yuan family? How is this possible? He has just been kicked out by the Yuan family. If he is sent to the door at this time, he is not afraid of being betrayed by others?"
"If you can't come directly to the door, can't you sneak in secretly?"
Ji Jingxue really knew Qi Jue. As he had guessed, on the surface, Qi Jue rode away in anger, but in fact, he circled outside and returned to the Yuan family.
Qi Jue has never been afraid of anything, but now he is panicked. He is afraid that after today's incident, his little girl will no longer want to talk to him.
You must know that he and Yan Mingzhu have the same mind, and he has made countless efforts to win her heart with great difficulty.
He didn't care what others thought, but what he feared most was that Yan Mingzhu would sentence him to death.
Family is far more important than love in Yan Mingzhu's heart. Today, the elder's wife almost fainted from Concubine Zhuang's anger. Yan Mingzhu must be very angry.
I just don’t know how angry I am. If I don’t even want to see him, then he is really in danger!
However, Qi Jue thought too much, and Yan Mingzhu had no time to be angry, because as soon as the guests left, she was called over by the senator's wife and others to talk.
"Zhuzhu, my grandmother has been there. The most important things in this woman's life are three things. One is birth, which cannot be decided by others. The other is husband. You need to find a husband who has you in his eyes and heart and is sincere.
Treat you well,
The third and most important thing is the attitude of your husband's family. Marrying is not just about marrying this man, but also marrying into that big family. Do they respect you and will they treat you as their own daughter?
, you can only live happily in your husband’s family.”
Mrs. Yuan Da added: "What kind of person is His Royal Highness King Dingbei? Over the past few days, we have all seen clearly. What he has done for the Yuan family and for you, we all remember it in our hearts. To be honest, to this prospective son-in-law,
, we are satisfied,
The most important thing to consider is that his status is too high, and I am afraid that if you marry like this, you will be bullied by your husband's family. So today, after my mother learned that Concubine Zhuang was also coming to the banquet, she greeted us in private. If Concubine Zhuang
The concubine treats you sincerely, so we agreed to this marriage."
Yan Mingzhu didn't know that Mrs. Yuan and the others had thought so much about herself in private. Although they said they were not optimistic about it, in fact, they had already discussed it together.
Everything is her priority, and as long as she can live a good life after getting married, they won't say anything more.
Yan Mingzhu's eyes were red, "Grandma, eldest aunt, second aunt, thank you for thinking about me so much."
Although she is not their real relative, after getting along with them these days, she has already regarded them as her own relatives.
Just like them, they treat her wholeheartedly and consider her.
"Silly boy, it was my grandmother who didn't think carefully and thought that Concubine Zhuang's visit today was for the sake of your marriage. She didn't consider another possibility, which led to today's situation.
Although I have asked Jin Shen and others to come forward and ask today's guests not to spread this matter, but as the saying goes, people's hearts are unpredictable, and there will inevitably be people with ulterior motives. In the future, there may be such rumors, Zhuzhu
Don't take it to heart,
Don't worry, as long as my wife is here, and as long as the Yuan family is not here for a day, grandma will personally choose a good family for you, and marry us off in all glory. We don't care about the royal family, it's us who don't want them, remember!
"
After finally appeasing the senator's wife and the others, Yan Mingzhu had time to go back to the house to take a breath.
Liu Xiang followed her, very worried, "Girl, don't take it to heart. Although His Royal Highness Prince Dingbei is good, Mr. Ming is not bad either. Our girls are very popular. It's Concubine Zhuang who is blind."
If you know people, she will definitely regret it in the future!"
Yan Mingzhu paused, smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine. You can go down."
As soon as Liu Xiang went down, a tall figure enveloped him.
The waist was locked tightly, and the man's low and hoarse voice sounded in his ears: "Zhu Zhu."
