Chapter 351: Not necessarily open-minded

Zhao Shen didn't care much and said, "Father probably won't go. As for the Yao family, who knows? Has Princess Huimin returned?"

Ji Yunshu shook his head in surprise: "Do you think she will come back? I don't think the princess has that intention."

It can be said that Princess Taining really loved her daughter Wei Yuanmin. She took her away without hesitation that day without leaving any room for her.

Zhao Shen said, "Given the eldest princess's personality, she naturally wouldn't want her daughter to come back. Zhao Heng personally pushed the pregnant Wei Yuanmin, nearly killing both of them. Now that the child is gone, Wei Yuanmin is ultimately in the right. Even if she doesn't come back, no one can say anything. But I don't think she'll be able to let it go."

Ji Yunshu: "If you can't let it go, you can take revenge on him. Why did you come back?"

Isn't the first thing to do when you meet a bad person to run away?

What is the idea of ​​being with each other?

Zhao Shen remembered her actions on their wedding night and couldn't help but smile. "You don't have any feelings for Zhao Heng, so your first priority is to protect yourself and your family. But Wei Yuanmin is different. She has loved Zhao Heng since she was a child. She will never accept being hurt by the one she loves."

Ji Yunshu curled her lips and said, "She insisted on marrying me even though she knew she already had someone else in her heart. This outcome was predictable. Why should she be so unwilling?"

She thinks the stupidest idea a woman can have is to think that a man will be moved by her love and eventually fall in love with her.

Wasn’t this the idea Wei Yuanmin had at the beginning?

Zhao Shen shook his head and said nothing. He often felt that Ji Yunshu was not smart.

But there are advantages to being slow to understand.

Ji Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Yao Ruolan disappeared for a few days and returned intact. I suspect Wei Yuanmin may have done something to her."

Zhao Shen nodded: "It seems that she blames everything on Yao Ruolan."

Ji Yunshu disagreed, "It's nothing to embarrass a woman. Wasn't it all Zhao Heng's fault?"

Zhao Shen had long discovered that Ji Yunshu had a strange protective nature. A normal woman would hate a woman who seduced her husband, but she always directed her ire at men.

"If it were you, what would you do?"

Ji Yunshu raised an eyebrow at him and smiled, "If I lose my child, then Zhao Heng will definitely be childless for the rest of his life."

Zhao Shen: “…”

Well, his wife always thought differently.

The two of them stayed in bed for half a day before getting up. After breakfast, they heard someone announce that the emperor had issued an order to go to the temporary palace to escape the summer heat and go hunting.

It was such a hot day, Ji Yunshu didn't think anyone would be interested in hunting.

If it weren't for the people of Mobei, the emperor probably wouldn't have any interest in organizing such an activity.

When Ji Yunshu went to pay his respects to Yao, Yao seemed in a good mood and asked Ji Yunshu, "Brother Shen, did you tell me why the emperor suddenly decided to go to the palace?"

Ji Yunshu shook his head. "He just heard the news too. Maybe the Emperor just thinks the capital is too hot. It's only June, and it's already this hot. The Emperor has to deal with so many things every day, so I imagine he must be feeling the heat."

How could Yao possibly believe her lies? It was true that the weather was hot this year, but there was ice in the palace and servants to serve. No matter who was uncomfortable, it was not the emperor's turn to suffer.

However, seeing that Ji Yunshu had no intention of saying more, she stopped asking and said with a smile, "You're right. This is a bargain for us. It's better to go to the palace with us than to stay bored in the mansion."

Ji Yunshu was a little surprised: "Madam, are you going too? Since you're going to escape the summer heat, you should be gone for quite a while. Who will take care of the affairs of the mansion?"

Speaking of this, Yao felt a little heartbroken. If Wei Yuanmin was fine and still pregnant at this time, she definitely could not go to the palace. It would be just right for her to stay and serve as the housekeeper.

But the baby in her belly is gone and she refuses to come back.

Zhao Heng, that useless guy, actually thought that it was fine as it was and refused to lower his head to coax the person back.

The smile on her face froze for a moment before she said, "Don't we still have your Third Aunt? We don't have many masters in our mansion, and most of them will have gone to the temporary palace by then. It would be nice to have someone in the mansion to keep an eye on things."

Ji Yunshu was a little surprised that Yao was willing to share the housekeeping power with the third branch.

But then I realized that my third uncle was a rich and idle man who was addicted to pleasure and had never been an official in his life.

Third Aunt Xue was of humble origins and was said to be a descendant of a military general who had fought in wars with Zhao Shen’s grandfather.

After Ji Yunshu married into the family, she had dealt with him several times and felt that he was a straightforward person.

All these things went through his mind for a while, and Ji Yunshu blinked and said, "I remember that my second and third sisters are also old enough to be married. Isn't Auntie San going to take them for a walk?"

For this rare opportunity to go out and meet people, the ladies of each family have their own plans in mind.

Especially for families with boys and girls of marriageable age, you never know who will like them when you take them out.

The third room is the one with the most people in the marquis's mansion.

Uncle San prides himself on being a talented and romantic man, and his room is always filled with concubines and mistresses.

He has three daughters and one son.

Among them, only the third daughter, Zhao Xuan, was born to her third aunt, Xue.

The second daughter Zhao Fei, the fourth daughter Zhao Zhen and the only son Zhao Chen were all born to concubine Lin.

The second young lady is fourteen and the third young lady is thirteen. They are both at the age of getting married, but neither of them has yet decided on their marriage.

Yao smiled and said, "That's nothing. Your third aunt said she wasn't familiar with the people in the capital, so she asked me to take your two younger sisters out to meet some people. I'll have to trouble you, the eldest sister-in-law, to look after them."

Ji Yunshu nodded: "Madam, you are too kind. We are sisters, why would you bother me?"

Yao sighed and said, "There are only a few people in our family. There are only a few sisters in this generation. Your eldest sister has returned to her hometown and we don't know when she will come back. Only your third uncle's children are left. We have to be more careful about the marriage."

"Madam is right, but a daughter of one family is sought after by hundreds of families, and the families going to the imperial palace this time are all from well-known families in the capital. I'm afraid you will be overwhelmed by the choices."

Ji Yunshu held it and said.

Yao smiled and said, "If I can help your two sisters get married, it will be worth it even if I am overwhelmed by the choices."

"It is a blessing for them to have an aunt like Madam."

Ji Yunshu flattered him with his mouth, but he didn't agree in his heart. Now what Zhao Heng did to Wei Yuanmin had spread among the powerful circle.

With this reputation, the Zhao family girls' marriage proposals will be affected.

So now is not actually a good time to meet each other.

After asking Yao about her general plans for this trip, Ji Yunshu took his leave and returned to Qionghua Courtyard.

Seeing Zhao Shen reading a book, she leaned over and asked, "Why don't you go to the study?"

Zhao Shen is a typical person who is extremely self-disciplined, and it can even be said that he has a little obsessive-compulsive disorder.

The time to get up and go to bed, and how much to eat every day are all very regular.

Almost never breaks his habit.

But it would have been fine if he didn't get up early to practice martial arts this morning, but now he didn't even go to the study to read.

Ji Yunshu found it quite strange.
