Chapter 482 Brothers Meet

"Your Highness, please wait."

Seeing that Lu Hexuan was about to leave, Ji Wenjin quickly stopped him.

"Does Your Highness think that His Majesty will rescind his decree if you go to him like this? The matter of bestowing a marriage is related to the establishment of our two nations. Your Highness will only displease His Majesty. His Majesty has finally lowered his guard. Your Highness must not ruin this important matter."

"So you just married that unruly princess like that?"

Lu Hexuan has seen all kinds of beauties over the years, but he really can't afford to mess with someone like the Princess of Wei.

"The princess hasn't even entered the palace yet, how could Your Highness know that Princess Chuxia is unruly?"

Looking at Lu Hexuan's manic state, Ji Wenjin couldn't help but admire this Wei princess. What kind of personality did she have that could frighten the unruly and virtuous king to such an extent?

If the two of them get married in the future, judging from Lu Hexuan's attitude, he probably won't be able to bother him anymore.

Thinking this way, Ji Wenjin suddenly felt good about the marriage. No matter what, as long as Lu Hexuan behaved himself, then her younger siblings would probably no longer look at her as if she were a homosexual.

"Anyway, I just know." Lu Hexuan was speechless after Ji Wenjin's retort. He smacked his lips, waved his hand, and replied irritably.

Seeing Lu Hexuan's reaction, Ji Wenjin couldn't help but sneer, "Even if Princess Chuxia is unruly, shouldn't a prince who is below the imperial decree go back to receive it? Otherwise, if His Majesty finds out that the prince is not in the mansion, what do you think His Majesty will think?"

Ji Wenjin ruthlessly forced Lu Hexuan to face reality. Seeing the gloating look on Ji Wenjin's face, Lu Hexuan gave him a resentful look, "How could you be so heartless after all these years of friendship?"

Lu Hexuan turned and left Ji Wenjin's courtyard with a sullen look on his face. Before Ji Wenjin could understand Lu Hexuan's last words, Ji Wenjin, Gu Renjie, and Gu Yingjie walked in through the door.

"Good heavens! Cousin Wenjin, you're gay? And with the Prince Xian no less?! My God!"

Gu Yingjie was straightforward and spoke his mind in just a few words, revealing his suspicions.

After hearing this, Gu Renjie and Ji Wenxuan both looked at Gu Yingjie. Gu Yingjie then realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly shut his mouth.

Looking at her three younger brothers who had suddenly appeared, Ji Wenjin felt an urge to dig a hole and crawl into it. What was going on? Could someone tell her where these three had come from?

And then there's Lu Hexuan. He clearly saw the three of them, yet he deliberately said those things. Wasn't that intentionally trying to cause a misunderstanding? I hope that after that Wei princess marries him, she can torment him properly and avenge me.

"Ahem, why did you all come together!"

No matter how embarrassed Ji Wenjin felt, he had no choice but to speak up, since he was the eldest brother!

"Actually, we have something we want to discuss with our cousin." Gu Renjie was older, and seeing Ji Wenjin's embarrassed expression, he quickly changed the subject and explained the purpose of their visit to ease the atmosphere.

After all, if this happened to me, I would feel ashamed to face my brothers.

"Oh? What could be so important that you all need to come all this way together?"

Ji Wenjin naturally followed Gu Renjie's lead and stepped down. He thought that Gu Renjie was saying this to smooth things over for him, but to his surprise, the three of them actually had something to discuss with him.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, but only my elder brother can handle this, so we brothers have no choice but to come to him."

Gu Renjie forced a rather unpleasant smile onto his perpetually unchanging face. Looking into his calculating eyes, Ji Wenjin couldn't help but take a step back.

Although they had rarely met over the years, he knew his cousin's habits well, having grown up together since childhood. So when Gu Renjie showed that expression, he knew that he was probably doomed today.

"Let me make this clear first, I don't help with everything." Ji Wenjin raised her hand in a gesture of stopping him, as if Gu Renjie was asking her to do something shady.

Upon seeing this, Gu Renjie couldn't help but think of their childhood. Whenever he came up with a bad idea, his cousin would do the same thing, but in the end, he would still help him.

"Brother, what are you saying? Do you think the three of us brothers would ever betray you?"

"That's right, brother, don't look so bitter and resentful, okay?" Ji Wenxuan stepped forward, hooked his arm around Ji Wenjin's shoulder, and pressed him back down onto the stool without saying a word.

Seeing her younger brother's attitude, Ji Wenjin's already heightened anxiety even more, and she even gave Ji Wenxuan a look that said, "You've already taken advantage of me, so what?"

As expected, Ji Wenjin, with her foresight, was dragged into the mess by her younger brothers, but that's another story.

The next day, after having breakfast, Gu Shuyan took Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuhe out.

The tea garden gathering I attended today may seem like a spontaneously organized event, but the actual situation is not to be underestimated.

For example, banquets hosted by various families were generally only open to officials of the third rank or above and the children of nobles. This was not only to control the number of attendees, but also to clearly distinguish the upper class in the capital.

However, this tea garden gathering transcended the social classes of the capital, allowing any official or wealthy merchant from the city to participate. It was precisely because of this that the tea garden gathering was held in even higher regard by the world.

"There will surely be many people attending the tea garden gathering today. When you arrive, if anyone strikes up a conversation with you, remember to be careful with your words and actions so as not to give anyone something to say about you."

As they were about to arrive at their destination, Gu Shuyan looked at her two younger sisters, Gu Yuxin and Gu Yuhe, and couldn't help but offer a few words of advice.

Although her grandmother must have given her these instructions before they came, the two of them were still young and it was their first time attending this type of banquet, so Gu Shuyan was still a little worried.

In addition, she felt uneasy when she woke up at Chenshi (7-9 AM) today, as if something was about to happen, which made her even more anxious.

"Don't worry, big sister! We definitely won't say anything out of line."

Looking at Gu Shuyan's serious face, Gu Yuhe couldn't help but give her a bright smile.

Originally, Gu Shuyan was supposed to come to the tea garden party alone, but after Gu Yuhe heard that the tea garden party was very interesting, she insisted on coming with Gu Shuyan, and only then did she agree to let the two of them come together.

Looking at Gu Yuhe's innocent smile, Gu Shuyan gently patted her head, "Okay, big sister believes in you."

As Gu Shuyan spoke, she glanced at Gu Yuxin, and only after seeing Gu Yuxin nod at her did Gu Shuyan truly feel relieved.

Of the two sisters, Gu Shuyan always doted on Gu Yuhe more and didn't make many demands on her; while Gu Yuxin, unlike the sensible Gu Yuxin, always gave Gu Shuyan a sense of security in entrusting her with her words and deeds.
