In this world, only Qi Jue can intimidate the little ancestor Zhuang Ke and make him obedient.
But now, this woman named Yan Mingzhu just glanced at Zhuang Ke and instantly convinced him. This made Ji Jingxue feel confused and couldn't help but look at Yan Mingzhu more.
"Jingxue, it's rare that you can come back to Beijing. Sit down quickly, have a cup of tea and listen to the storytelling for a while. Let me tell you, today's storytelling is different from usual ones. It's very interesting. I'm sure you won't be able to leave after listening to it.
!”
But Ji Jingxue remained motionless and only said: "I want to report my duties to His Highness."
Zhuang Ke curled his lips in boredom, "Didn't you go see my eldest nephew first and then come here? Since you want to report to my eldest nephew, what are you doing here?"
As he spoke, as soon as Zhuang Ke's butt touched the stool, Ji Jingxue grabbed his arm and pulled him out in a very rough manner.
Ji Jingxueyan explained in two words concisely and concisely: "Catch you."
"Hey, hey, let go, I haven't finished listening to the story yet. It's so exciting, I can't stop it!"
But Ji Jingxue would not show mercy and grabbed him and left Ming Yuexuan with a cold face.
Zhuang Ke, who was forced to come out, expressed his dissatisfaction, "Why did you arrest me? I just came to listen to the book, and I didn't do anything bad. It's a spoiler!"
Ji Jingxue gave him a cold look and asked the fatal question: "Have you practiced martial arts?"
Zhuang Ke was as quiet as a chicken for an instant.
Zhuang Guogong had a son in old age. Zhuang Ke was born prematurely, so his health was not very good when he was a child. Zhuang Guogong brought him to the palace and asked him to raise him with Qi Jue.
Although Qi Jue is junior to Zhuang Ke, he is two years older than him. Moreover, Qi Jue has been extremely intelligent since he was a child, and his literary and military talents are not to mention.
Having Zhuang Ke by his side can also intimidate this little ancestor and force him to practice martial arts to strengthen his body.
But Qi Jue thought he was too noisy, so he left Zhuang Ke to Ji Jingxue, who was the prince's companion at the time.
Ji Jingxue's temperament is even colder than Qi Jue's. She usually can't hold back a word even with a stick, and she won't move her mouth if she can do it.
Everyone else thought that Young Master Zhuang was left to his care and would have to shed his skin. It was a blessing to be able to return to the Duke's mansion alive.
But what is surprising is that Ji Jingxue was surprisingly patient in teaching Zhuang Ke martial arts. From childhood to adulthood, Ji Jingxue could be half of Zhuang Ke's master.
Zhuang Ke lowered his head and looked around: "I...I've been very busy recently..."
Ji Jingxue didn't give him a chance to finish and interrupted directly: "After meeting His Highness, I will make up for everything I missed."
Zhuang Ke looked up to the sky and howled: "Ji Jingxue, you are not human!"
And here, the beggar sent over had already brought the news of Wang Rui's accident to the Wang family.
When Mrs. Wang Er heard that her son had been taken to Jingzhao Mansion and had offended King Dingbei, she was so frightened that her legs went weak. "Second Master, Second Master, you have to save Rui'er. He is our only son."
!
Rui'er has grown up pampered since he was a child. How can he stay in a place like Jingzhao Mansion that eats people without spitting out their bones? He must be extremely scared!"
The expression on Mr. Wang's face was not very good either, "This traitor, usually he causes trouble outside, so I just turn a blind eye, but now he has provoked King Dingbei, he is a real living king of hell!"
"
"No matter what is going on, it is most important to rescue Rui'er first. Let's... let's ask my sister-in-law. She is Rui'er's biological aunt. She can save Rui'er..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the Second Master Wang: "My little sister is just a minister's wife. Do you think the Jingzhao Mansion will offend His Highness the North King for the sake of a minister's wife?"
Mrs. Wang's second wife rolled her eyes and grabbed his hand, "Then let me go into the palace to beg the Queen or His Highness the Crown Prince. As long as these two nobles in the palace are willing to come forward to save Rui'er, Jingzhao Mansion will still
Can you hold someone captive?"
But Mr. Wang looked embarrassed, "I'm afraid my little sister won't care about this kind of thing..."
After all, it is a very shameful thing for a young man from an aristocratic family to be arrested and taken to Jingzhao Mansion.
Originally, it was only the Wang family that was embarrassed, but if Mrs. Pei took over, the entire Pei family would also be embarrassed, and it would even be shamed into the palace.
As soon as she heard this, Mrs. Wang simply sat down on the ground and cried: "I don't care, Rui'er is my heart, if anything happens to him, I... I don't want to live anymore!"
"
Second Master Wang was so upset by her crying, "It's not all because of you that you spoiled him so much since childhood. Now that a disaster is approaching, you know what's the use of crying?"
"Husband...Husband, I was wrong, but Rui'er is our only son. If we can't keep Rui'er, our second wife will not be able to compete for the big house. After a hundred years, the Wang family's property will be given to the big house.
Take them all and we’ll have nothing left!”
Mr. Wang took a deep breath and finally relaxed: "I'm going to Pei's house."
Mrs. Wang Er was overjoyed and said, "Husband, I will go with you!"
Pei Mansion.
In the waterside pavilion, Mrs. Pei was throwing fish food into the lake, and the precious goldfish in the lake rushed to grab the food.
A maid walked up behind Mrs. Pei and lowered her head to report back: "Madam, Aunt Wang is still kneeling outside. She also said that if the madam refuses to save the third girl, she will never be able to kneel down."
Mrs. Pei sneered and continued to feed the fish leisurely, "Then let her kneel until she dies. She will give birth to a pair of idiot children who will bring trouble and embarrassment to the Pei family. What qualifications does she have as a mother?"
Live in this world?"
Mother An, the personal maid, spoke from the side: "This Aunt Wang really can't get on the stage. The third girl provoked His Highness King Dingbei. He was a master of his word. Even the first-rank ministers killed him when asked.
Besides, our Lord was fined a salary by His Majesty just a few days ago. If he goes to Jingzhao Mansion to open the back door for the third girl right now, wouldn’t he be rushing to get someone to find something to do?"
"It's just a concubine, and her horizons are only so big. Naturally, she can only plan for herself. How can she consider the master and the entire Pei family?"
Mother An immediately answered: "It is only under your control, madam, that this family can prosper."
Mrs. Pei was very impressed by Mother An's praise, her mood was not affected, and she continued to feed the goldfish.
At this time, another maid hurriedly walked in and said, "Madam, the second master is here. He said he wanted to see you for something urgent."
Mrs. Pei's intuition was that something was not good, but she was her mother's family after all, so she sent all the fish food into the lake, and then waved to the maid to bring the people in.
As soon as Mrs. Wang came in, she cried and knelt down in front of Mrs. Pei, "Sister-in-law, please save Rui'er. Only you can save him, please!"
This Wang Rui is an ignorant and incompetent playboy who usually gets into trouble. If his surname was not Wang, Mrs. Pei would not want to recognize such a nephew at all.
Hearing that he was causing trouble again, and seeing that Mrs. Wang was crying so hard that it was probably not a trivial matter, Mrs. Pei had an expression of impatience on her face.
"Second sister-in-law, please get up and speak slowly. What happened to Rui'er again?"
