When the others arrived at the main hall, they saw Princess Xian who had just entered. Princess Xian has a good relationship with the Queen. She will come to the palace to sit in the palace and chat with the Queen to relieve her boredom. But in recent days, due to the rectification of the third prince's remnant party in the palace, there have been few visits.
“I’ve met Princess Xian.” Mrs. Ji saluted Princess Xian, who helped her up with a busy smile. And said: "Mrs. Ji, please get up quickly."
Bei Hengjin felt a hint of surprise in his eyes when he saw Princess Xian. He obviously saw her going out when he left, why did she come to the palace now? However, her arrival will not affect his decision.
The queen was not in a hurry, but nodded slightly towards Princess Xian. Mrs. Ji frowned slightly, guessing in her heart that today was more than just treating Su Yuyue.
The palace people brought tea and snacks one after another.
The queen took a sip and talked about yesterday's events: "Yesterday, after the incident, I heard the prince mentioned the plan with the eldest son. It really made me sweat."
"Fortunately, you let Miss Duanmu pretend to be a maid first, otherwise, later..."
“Your Majesty, be careful what you say!” Mrs. Ji suddenly interrupted the Queen.
The queen was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "It's okay, we are all our own people here."
Mrs. Ji pursed her lips and said nothing. The Queen is a person who knows how to observe words and emotions. Seeing Mrs. Ji's appearance, she made a conscious effort not to mention what happened yesterday.
Although there was a little surprise at the Ji family's wedding banquet yesterday, fortunately, the eldest son's plan did not allow the third prince to take advantage of it. It's just a pity that no one was caught.
Thinking of this, the queen suddenly thought of what the prince said to her last night. The prince's original words were: "Mother, don't you think the Ji family is too arrogant in the matter of the third child? The Ji family gives me the feeling that no matter what the third child does next? The Ji family has to deal with it. It’s like the Ji family knows every step of Lao San’s next step.”
No matter how the Ji family knew about the third prince's ambition, the Ji family is now on the side of the Gu family, isn't it? She would not do anything to please the loyal minister like Emperor Yu did. Besides, the Ji family is full of loyal and patriotic people. There is no reason to distrust such loyal ministers.
After thinking about this, the queen was in a good mood and even hoped that Emperor Yu would just sleep forever. It's not that she is cruel, but that she has to think about the two hundred or so members of the Gu family.
That day she heard clearly that Emperor Yu threatened to put everyone to death. He has been poisoned by the imperial master and has become disowned.
When mentioning the eldest son of the Ji family, the queen thought of the second thing to invite Mrs. Ji to come today, which was related to Bei Hengjin. The queen smiled and said: "Mrs. Ji, the eldest son's leg has healed. What are your plans?"
The Queen asked Mrs. Ji about this. Three years ago, when Ji Yushu's leg was not injured, it was when he was in high school. In the same year, he was appointed as a third-rank censor. Emperor Yu was very optimistic about Ji Yushu at that time, because he was a rare talent with both civil and military skills among the students of that generation. And the articles he wrote on governing the country had a great influence on how he governed the country.
So he made an exception and gave him the high position of third grade. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that he was suppressed by the third prince.
The Ji family understands this principle well.
A year ago, Mrs. Ji asked Ji Yushu the same question. If one day he could stand up again, would he still serve as an official in the court? Ji Yushu's answer at that time was: "Mom, the big tree attracts the wind."
Yes, the tree is big and attracts the wind. Didn't their Ji family just get caught in a strong wind? When it was about to collapse, Hua'er appeared. If it weren't for her, the Ji family would probably be close to falling. Thinking of these things, Mrs. Ji was very upset.
Then he said: "Returning to my wife, Quanzi seems to be obsessed with business."
Hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed in the queen's eyes. Everyone saw how ambitious Ji Yushu was back then. It seemed that incident had hit him hard.
But doing business does not affect his teaching. So, the queen smiled and said: "That's it, Jin'er admires the eldest young master's literary talents and also admires the second young master's superb martial arts, so I want to invite the two young masters to be Jin'er's tutors. I don't know Mrs. Ji." What do you think?" Fearing that Mrs. Ji would disagree, the queen quickly added: "In order not to trouble the two young masters, Jin'er can go to Ji's house to learn." The latter sentence was Bei Hengjin's real purpose.
As soon as the queen finished speaking, everyone including Princess Xian was shocked. I dare you to come to the palace today with this idea in mind. Are you afraid that she won't agree and then directly ask the queen?
Princess Xian looked at Bei Hengjin helplessly. Others don't know, doesn't she, a mother, know what he has in mind? It's just that he wants to go to Ji's house every day to see the youngest of Ji's family for this reason.
Princess Xian was afraid that Mrs. Ji would be in trouble, so she wanted to say something? Then she saw the queen blinking wildly at her, and she understood. The Queen also had this idea in mind.
Are you looking at the youngest member of the Ji family? As the saying goes, don't leave the land to outsiders, plan for your own family early.
The wise princess chuckled to herself as she thought of something.
"I have to go back and discuss this matter with my dog at home." As soon as Mrs. Ji finished speaking, she heard Ji Hua's anxious voice.
【It would be good to let Bei Hengjin become his disciples to his two elder brothers. In this case, I will have more reasons to complain about him, and then I can accumulate more points to deal with the national division. Also, the fact that Bei Hengjin did not live to be seven years old made me feel a little panicked, because I could not remember the specific situation at that time. 】
【If something happens to Bei Hengjin in one year, then I won't get the points and the mall will be useless. So no matter what happens, nothing should happen to Bei Hengjin. Mother must agree! 】
It turns out that the so-called points mentioned by the daughter are related to Bei Hengjin, so this matter must be dealt with.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ji revealed her secret: "Da Lang mentioned some time ago that he wanted to set up a school. It just so happens that it would be good to have Prince Jin to gain experience."
That means he didn’t run away.
Hearing this, the Queen and Bei Hengjin both smiled, "Very good, very good!"
Ruqiao in the back room also listened with her ears attentive, completely unaware that Su Yuyue lying on the bed had already woken up. Zhengxu stared at her. When Ruqiao turned around after hearing this, Su Yuyue closed her eyes again.
Mrs. Ji sat for a while and then left the palace, leaving Princess Xian chatting with the Queen.
“Jin’er, please go play outside while I talk to your concubine about some serious business.”
“Okay, concubine.”
Just in time, Bei Hengjin can go out to see Jihua off.
By the time Bei Hengjin chased him out, Mrs. Ji had already sat on the sedan chair.
Bei Hengjin followed behind and took the two of them to the gate of the palace to get into Ji Mansion's carriage. Bei Hengjin just watched from a distance as the Ji family's horse went further and further away.
The corners of his mouth were filled with an irrepressible smile.
Soon, he would have a reason to go to Ji's house every day.
In the prison on the other side, Ji Linfeng came to Shuntian Mansion with Duan Muyi on his back after Mrs. Ji left. The person detained inside is none other than Xu Yaqing.
