With Ji Yunkai, her daughter being present, Master Ji was not as afraid of Xiao Jiu'an as ordinary people were. Facing Xiao Jiu'an's ice-cold eyes, he could still barely smile.

Xiao Jiu'an didn't know where Lord Ji got his confidence from, but he actually challenged him, and accused him of his wrongdoings. He could not help but sneer.

"Your … Your Highness …" Senior Ji did not expect Xiao Jiu'an to not give him face at all. His face immediately paled and she stammered, unable to say a word.

"I think there's no need for that, it's getting late, and it's about time for Prince and I to go back." Ji Yunkai didn't understand. Where did Master Ji get your confidence from?

When the Ji Mansion's people brought the Imperial Guards outside the city and put the Prince Yanbei's Mansion's face under their feet, Lord Ji should understand that Xiao Jiu'an would not give him any face.

"Yun Kai …." Seeing that Ji Yunkai was about to leave, Senior Ji panicked. She took a step forward and stood in the hall, "You have just arrived and you want to leave now?

If word of this got out, people would definitely think that the relationship between Prince Yanbei and him was not good.

He wanted to keep Prince Yanbei down for lunch because he wanted to drag out the time Prince Yanbei stayed in the Ji Mansion. If Prince Yanbei was drunk at the table, it would be even better if she stayed in the Ji Family.

As long as outsiders saw that the Prince Yanbei valued the Ji Family, then his following job would be easy.

No matter what, he was the Prince Yanbei's father-in-law, those people had to look at the Buddhist Sangha even if they didn't want to.

"Not going, do you want to stay in the Ji Family?" Senior Ji's intention was something that Ji Yunkai could guess. He simply wanted Xiao Jiu'an to stay a little longer, so that he could use Xiao Jiu'an's power to push through the Sixth Division's reforms.

Forget about Xiao Jiu'an not knowing how to cooperate, even she would not agree to this kind of thing. Master Ji is thinking too highly of himself.

Ji Yunkai's words were clearly filled with ridicule, but Senior Ji acted as if she didn't hear it, and continued, "Lan'er entered the palace, and was unable to return home. Xin'er's whereabouts cannot be determined, and if you can stay at home, then it would be for the best."

"Heh …" Ji Yunkai laughed in ridicule and ignored Lord Ji. He turned to Xiao Jiu'an and said, "Your Highness, the New Year gift has already been delivered.

Prince Yanbei accompanied Wangfei back to his parents' home on the second day of the new year, staying for less than half an hour. If word of this got out, would Lord Ji's face not be good to look at?

However, Ji Yunkai was truly unable to sympathize with Master Ji. If not for Lord Ji's urgent display, Xiao Jiu'an would never refuse to give face to Lord Ji.

Even though he wouldn't be able to eat, he would definitely sit there for a moment longer to maintain his composure.

"Yun Kai... This is the new year, and you guys have come so late. Lord Ji became anxious and placed himself right in front of Ji Yunkai.

Speaking of which, it was really Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai's fault. It was not right for the two of them to leave the city at such a young age.

Actually, the people inside the city couldn't leave, but the people outside the city could. Normally, Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai would have entered the city a long time ago, waiting for someone from the Ji Family to come and invite them. However, these two had completely forgotten about it.

Even though he understood in his heart, Ji Yunkai would never admit it, "This year is indeed the fault of me and the prince. I thought that this year Father would not bring me back, after all, on the day of my return, Father did not arrange for anyone to pick me up, and I did not return at that time either."

This was a fact, a fact that could not be changed. Only the people from Ji Family understood how disgusting their actions were.

Not only was she not helping, Ji Family had even added insult to injury, she had directly cut off all relations with her. Facing such a family, how could she, Ji Yunkai, give face to Ji Family?

She had forgotten about returning to her parents' home on the second day of the new year and had never thought about returning. After all, she had never had a parents' home.

"Back then, back then …" Hearing Ji Yunkai's words of accusation, Lord Ji was speechless.

Then, just at this moment, Madam Ji spoke up, "What happened back then … Your father sent someone to pick you guys up, and I was the one who made the decision to stop the two of you, and even told your father that you refused to come back. "

At this moment, Madam Ji unhesitatingly took the blame.

Lord Ji's eyes flashed with shock. He quickly looked at Madam Ji, but did not deny the matter. He only said, "About this matter … It was us who were in the wrong. Yunkai, don't take it to heart. "

"Father, you are not stupid. The Prince is not stupid. You and I both know what the situation was like back then. " Ji Yunkai was too lazy to deal with Master Ji and directly tore the cloth covering her face, "Madam Ji can block it once, but can you block it a second time? Madam Ji can catch the servants that went to Prince Yanbei's Mansion, and can even stop Father? "

"Father, father..." Master Ji attempted to explain, but Ji Yunkai did not give him this opportunity. He continued, "Today, why do you insist on accepting me and your highness into the city, and why do you insist on letting us come down to eat? You, I, and your highness all understand in their hearts that it is all for the sake of advancing the reform of the six tribes. Father, I will be leaving my words here today. Today, don't say that we won't be staying for long, but even if we do stay, we will still sever our relationship with the Ji Family. "

She and Xiao Jiu'an would definitely not be used by the Emperor as a spear. It would be completely impossible for Lord Ji and the Emperor to use them as a shield.

"Yun Kai, stop your nonsense. I left you and Prince here for your own good, and I've missed you. After you were married, you only came back once, and you didn't send your family members to the door. I was worried about you. " With his thoughts pierced by Ji Yunkai, Master Ji became angry from embarrassment, but still refused to admit it.

"Father, there are no outsiders here …. Your Royal Highness is also not an outsider. Today, you brought the Imperial Guards to another manor, do you really think that Your Royal Highness and I don't understand? " Without the Ji Family as a shield, it was impossible for the Imperial Guards to get close to the Prince Yanbei's Mansion's residence, let alone search it.

Moreover, the situation this year was special. The entire capital was under martial law, so if Lord Ji didn't bring them back to the city, no one would say anything.

However, Lord Ji still sent someone to receive him. He even brought a Imperial Guard with him. This matter … It was so disgusting.

"Some things have already been done, so there's no need to be afraid of others saying it. Father, we'll be taking our leave now." Ji Yunkai avoided Master Ji and walked out …
