Ji Yulan’s lips twitched slightly under her handkerchief, and she looked at Chu Fengqing with a bit of embarrassment and anger. She originally thought that her cousin had to marry “her” for show because he had no choice but to do so due to the imperial decree, but she didn’t expect that…
“Why did my cousin ask you to wear his clothes?”
Chu Fengqing frowned. He couldn’t say that he had no clothes to change into. Just as she was thinking about what to say, Steward Mo spoke first: “Lady Cousin, this is the fun of the boudoir. We shouldn’t say anything.”
Everyone: “……”
Boudoir fun??
This Steward Mo usually doesn’t say a word, but when he speaks, his words are shocking.
Chu Fengqing opened his mouth and was about to explain, but after thinking about it, he gave up. He really didn’t know where to start explaining.
The maid, Xiao Huan, complained quietly, “No sense of shame.”
Steward Mo’s face darkened instantly when he heard this: “Be careful with your words!”
He paused and said to Ji Yulan, “And Lady Cousin, you should call our Madam Cousin-in-law.”
Ji Yulan’s eyes widened a little. She looked at Steward Mo and smiled. “Steward Mo, do you know what you are talking about?”
Steward Mo: “Madam was brought into the mansion by my master with three matchmakers and six betrothals, and a sedan chair carried by eight men. She is worthy of being called Cousin-in-law by you.”
Xiao Huan felt sorry for her young lady and muttered, “If that incident hadn’t happened back then, my Young Lady and your Master would have been married a long time ago…”
Chu Fengqing realized belatedly that Ji Yulan was not here to visit him at all. He pinched his brows. He had never expected that he would marry an eunuch, and he even had to compete with others for his affection too.
He stood up and wanted to leave. The more he thought about it, the more ridiculous this scene seemed.
But as soon as he stood up, he received a subtle look from Steward Mo, who said to Ji Yulan, “The relationship between the Master and the Madam is stronger than gold, and it cannot be sown with a few words.”
Chu Fengqing: “……” A love that is stronger than gold? He and Ji Yujin?!
He thought the world was a little crazy.
Ji Yulan also laughed. “They have only known each other for a few days, and their love is stronger than gold? Why would Steward Mo lie to me with such words?”
The two of them looked at Chu Fengqing at the same time.
Chu Fengqing: “……” So tired.
There was an obvious gleam in Steward Mo’s eyes as he looked at him, as if to say, Tell her about your past love affair and beat her to death.
Chu Fengqing pursed his lips slightly, pretending not to see it. If he told them about the misunderstanding between them, it might scare one or two people to death.
However, from the perspective of Steward Mo, this is indeed the case. Ji Yujin has always done things according to his own preferences. According to common sense, even if the emperor granted the marriage, he would have various ways to refuse. But this time, he let them do it. What does this mean? It means that Ji Yujin is willing.
How could he know that there were so many things involved? Ji Yujin had originally refused the marriage, but by some strange coincidence, something went wrong, leading to such a ridiculous marriage.
Besides, on the wedding night, they saw the marks on Chu Fengqing’s body with their own eyes. Based on his understanding of Ji Yujin, he would not believe that he had not known him before.
Steward Mo’s eyes became more and more intense. Chu Fengqing drank a sip of tea to cover it up, but he could not escape the murderous gaze.
Chu Fengqing: “……” Never mind, he admitted defeat. After all, he was now Ji Yujin’s wife. It would be a little abnormal if he had no attitude at all.
He put down the teacup in his hand, adjusted his cloak, and thought of the words in the book he read a few days ago. He said, “This is not the first time that Ji Yujin and I have met. We met four years ago. I fell in love with him at first sight, and I loved him so much that I couldn’t help myself. After we parted that day, I missed him for four years and couldn’t sleep or eat well.”
Chu Fengqing didn’t dare to say what Ji Yujin thought of him. If this girl and Ji Yujin were in love with each other, he wouldn’t want to ruin their marriage. He only said that he admired him, and it shouldn’t be a problem. This wife’s position is really difficult. He should have thought of other ways earlier.
He glanced at Ji Yulan and thought that he should be able to retire now.
However, at this moment…
Steward Mo: “Master, you are back.”
Chu Fengqing: “……”
He paused and looked towards the door, where he met a pair of eyes. Those eyes were dark and deep, with an expression that was difficult to understand.
Chu Fengqing: He heard everything??
Ji Yujin was dressed in red with a soft sword at his waist. His eyes rarely avoided Chu Fengqing. This little sickly seedling was getting bolder and bolder, and he actually expressed his love so bluntly!
He knew that he loved him, but he didn’t know that he was so deeply in love with him. Tsk, what a pity, he was destined to be unable to return this feeling.
Ji Yulan also saw Ji Yujin, and her face immediately brightened up. “Cousin.”
She moved lightly to Ji Yujin’s side, and just as she was about to put her arm around his wrist, Ji Yujin took a step back, avoiding her move.
Ji Yulan’s mouth twitched, but she didn’t show it, still smiling. “Cousin, why are you back now? Yulan hasn’t seen you for a long time. They always say you’re out on business.”
Ji Yujin frowned slightly and did not answer her question. Instead, he looked at Steward Mo and asked, “How did she get in?”
Steward Mo said, “Lady Cousin said she wanted to see the Madam, so the old servant took the initiative to bring her in. Please punish me, Master.”
Ji Yujin didn’t care what Ji Yulan said at all. He said with a cold face, “Have them kicked out.”
Chu Fengqing blinked. Wasn’t it said that the two of them were childhood sweethearts?
Steward Mo frowned, no longer showing the “passion” he had just shown, and said respectfully, “Yes.”
Ji Yulan’s expression was extremely ugly. Seeing the guards coming over, she suddenly shouted, “Who dares to touch me?”
The guard was frightened by her and stood there in a daze, not daring to move.
As she spoke, her eyes turned red. She raised her head and glared at Chu Fengqing, then turned her gaze to Ji Yujin and said word by word, “Ji Yujin! You dare to chase me away? Hahaha, do you want to be an ungrateful and shameless person?”
Ji Yujin’s face instantly turned dark blue, his eyes full of hostility. The guards in the hall began to tremble. Even though Ji Yujin had a terrible reputation and was known for his eccentric temperament, they also rarely saw him so furious.
Steward Mo suddenly regretted his decision. He shouldn’t have taken the initiative to let Ji Yulan into the mansion. He quickly asked the guards, “What are you guys still standing there for?”
The guards were startled and took action.
Ji Yulan seemed like a different person now. She was no longer the little girl she was before. Her eyes were frighteningly red. “No need for you guys to do anything. I can walk by myself.”
She put her clothes in order before walking out step by step. When she passed Ji Yujin, she stopped and said, “Divorce her. How can you have the right to have a wife? This position is mine. If I want it, then I have to have it. If I don’t want it, then no one else can have it either.”
She paused and said with a smile, “You owe me this, so you have to accept it. Avoid? You can’t avoid it.”
Her voice was not small, and everyone in the room heard it. Chu Fengqing frowned slightly. He lowered his eyes and saw that the veins on Ji Yujin’s hands hanging by his side were bulging, as if he were about to lose control, and his eyes were bloodthirsty.
But the strange thing is that even though Ji Yulan spoke so rudely, Ji Yujin never attacked her and just let her go out.
After Ji Yulan left, Ji Yujin didn’t even raise his eyes but just ordered, “Brush all the places she walked, it stinks.”
The person he was referring to was, naturally, Ji Yulan.
Chu Fengqing was somewhat curious about what had happened between them, but he was afraid of touching on other people’s private affairs, so he kept silent.
Ji Yujin turned around and was about to leave. Chu Fengqing suddenly caught a glimpse of something and said, “Wait, your hand is bleeding. Bandage it before you leave.”
Ji Yujin was stunned for a moment, then raised his right hand in front of his eyes. Sure enough, there was a wound on the palm of his hand, and it was bloody.
However, this small wound was nothing to him. He had suffered all kinds of injuries before. Even with an arrow wound that pierced his bone, he could still chase the assassin for several miles. But this time, for some unknown reason, he stayed.
Chu Fengqing skillfully helped him clean the wound. When applying the medicine, he said, “This medicine may hurt a little when it touches the wound, but it will heal quickly and won’t leave scars. Just bear with it.”
He moved very gently, and Ji Yujin found it a little funny to see how cautious he was.
The medicine was sprinkled on the wound, but Ji Yujin’s hand was still firmly placed on the table without any reaction. However, Chu Fengqing pursed his thin lips tightly, looking as if he were in pain. Those who don’t know would think that he was the one injured.
Ji Yujin couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. Perhaps he himself didn’t realize that Steward Mo, who was standing next to him, widened his eyes slightly when he saw this scene. A hint of deep meaning flashed in his turbid eyes, and a smile appeared at the corners of his lips.
Maybe… the variables have really come.
After applying the medicine and wrapping it with bandages, Chu Fengqing remembered what Ji Yulan said. She seemed to have told Ji Yujin to divorce him?
Will Ji Yujin really divorce him?
He originally wanted to ask, but Ji Yujin left after bandaging the wound, saying that he had something important to do.
At the Xichang.
Li Yu had just received information from the south and hurried over to report.
As soon as he arrived at the Xichang, he heard the servants outside saying that the governor was seriously injured and his hand was wrapped in bandages.
Li Yu was so frightened that he rushed to Ji Yujin’s office. Before he could say anything, he saw the bandage on Ji Yujin’s hand.
Li Yu was shocked. “Sh*t! Your hand is broken?! Who did it? An assassin?!”
You have to know that this guy didn’t even bandage the wound when he was stabbed in the stomach. This time, he bandaged it so carefully, he must have been seriously injured.
He trotted over, carefully holding his hand with both hands to check his injury, and anxiously said, “Have you asked the imperial physician to take a look? This is the right hand. If it is broken, can it still hold a sword?”
En? There doesn’t seem to be any blood on the bandage?
Ji Yujin frowned and pulled his hand back. “Tsk, it’s fine, just a small cut.”
“A small cut?!” Li Yu jumped up immediately after hearing this: “Ji Yujin, are you broken?”
He wanted to touch his forehead again to see if he had a fever. How could he wrap up a small cut so beautifully?! Is he crazy?!
Ji Yujin glanced at him lazily, and Li Yu immediately became obedient again. His greatest characteristic was his ability to bend and stretch.
“That little sickly seedling bandaged it for me. He’s just making a fuss.”
Li Yu: “……” Little sickly seedling? Who?
He thought for a while, it was only then that he thought of that big beauty in Ji Yujin’s mansion, so he asked tentatively, “Are you talking about Saozi?”
Ji Yujin: “Otherwise?”
Li Yu: “……” My uncle! Little sickly seedling? Then I’m a serious disease seedling!
There were a thousand horses running around in his heart, but he didn’t dare say it in front of Ji Yujin.
Fortunately, Ji Yujin still remembered that he was the Governor of the Xichang, and asked, “If you have something to say, say it.”
Li Yu took a deep breath and calmed down: “Nothing big, I just received some news and came to report to you.”
He told Ji Yujin the news from the south, and the two discussed it for a while.
Li Yu: “Alright then, I’ll go back and give the order.”
Ji Yujin stopped him again and said, “Wait a minute, pay attention to Chu Zhengyin’s matter, and ask the people below to investigate the inside story.”
Li Yu: “No, Big Brother, didn’t you say you wouldn’t fall for the beauty trap? This is too fast.”
Ji Yujin: “What do you know? I just want to make it up to him.”
“Make up? Make up for what?”
Ji Yujin leaned back in the chair, put his legs on the table, looked at the bandage on his hand, and said slowly, “You don’t know, he loves me terribly.”
The author has something to say:
Ji Yujin: He loves me so much!
Chu Fengqing: Huh? When did that happen?
Ji Yujin: Self-strategy-ing brain-ing;
