Shen Ningyuan raised an eyebrow.
Seeing Ji Yunnuo's shocked reaction, the several encounters with Xie Wanzhou came to his mind.
Who would have thought that the demon who was rumored to kill people without blinking an eye was actually a homosexual.
Seeing Shen Ningyuan deep in thought and silent, Ji Yunnuo thought she was afraid.
He immediately joked, "Sister-in-law, isn't it too late for you to be afraid now?"
Shen Ningyuan paused after hearing this and immediately changed the subject, "Are only female relatives invited to the Queen Mother's palace banquet?"
Ji Yunnuo shook his head: "Of course not, since it's a palace banquet, naturally there will be all kinds of people."
"Is Ji Zehai also invited?" Shen Ningyuan asked again.
Ji Yunnuo nodded: "Yes."
Hearing this, Shen Ningyuan stopped talking, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Seeing her smile like this, Ji Yunnuo felt inexplicably scared.
"Sister-in-law, you're laughing so eerily, have you thought of a solution?"
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "Ji Yunnuo, I suddenly thought of something."
"What is it?"
"As we said just now, kill Ji Zehai and force Ji Yunchuan to show up. When he comes back, he will inherit the title of Marquis. Once he takes charge of the Ji family, it will only make it more difficult to deal with him."
Ji Yunnuo thought for a moment and nodded, "That's the truth."
"But if Ji Zehai offended the Empress Dowager at the palace banquet, His Majesty will revoke his title. However, this simple offense is not a serious crime that warrants the execution of nine generations of the clan. His Majesty will definitely find someone else to inherit the title in order to appease the Ji family."
Hearing this, Ji Yunnuo's eyes lit up instantly, "Sister-in-law, are you trying to drag Ji Zehai into this and push me up to the title of Marquis?"
"Isn't this what you want?" Chen Ningyuan asked instead of answering: "When you become the head of the Marquisate, and the Ji family is exterminated in the future, you can take the opportunity to establish a new family tree."
Ji Yunnuo smiled even more playfully, and murmured, "Sister-in-law, does Big Brother know that you are so smart?"
Shen Ningyuan's expression changed: "Why bring him up when everything is fine?"
Ji Yunnuo shook his head lightly. "No, I just suddenly felt a sense of emotion. If Big Brother knew that sister-in-law was so smart, I'm afraid he wouldn't let sister-in-law stay alone in the empty room for Cui Mingzhu."
"Sister-in-law is the real pearl." Ji Yunnuo added.
Shen Ningyuan didn't respond, but just glanced at Ji Yunnuo, "You talk a lot today."
"Maybe he drank a little bit of wine, so he dared to say some simple and honest words." Ji Yunnuo said truthfully.
Hearing this, Lao Guai glanced at Ji Yunnuo calmly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
Shen Ningyuan seemed to have noticed something and raised an eyebrow to look at Ji Yunnuo, "The superficial words in my heart are so obvious, so there is no need to say the real truth."
Ji Yunnuo: “…”
After hearing Shen Ningyuan's words, Ji Yunnuo was silent for a while, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
When Lao Guai saw him like this, he rolled his eyes in disgust.
Serves you right!
Just say whatever you want to say.
Why do you have to make these empty hints?
Now, all the chances to confess my love have been blocked by the girl!
It's your own fault!
At this time, Shen Ningyuan looked at the sky outside and said softly: "It's getting late. I have to hand over the evidence you gave me to my second brother first. I have to go back to the Marquis' Mansion in the evening."
Ji Yunnuo recovered from his previous loss. After listening to Shen Ningyuan's words, he subconsciously asked, "Sister-in-law, won't you hand over the evidence to General Shen?"
"No." Chen Ningyuan didn't hide anything. "If my parents knew, they would be terrified and would definitely make me leave the Ji family. By then, they would alert the enemy and our chance would be gone."
Ji Yunnuo chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that my sister-in-law would consider so much."
"If you have someone you care about, you'll consider it more than I do." Shen Ningyuan said.
Then he stood up and said, "Okay, I won't say any more to you. I'm leaving first."
"I'll get you out!"
Seeing Shen Ningyuan stand up to leave, Ji Yunnuo immediately stood up and walked towards the door with her.
Lao Guai looked at Ji Yunnuo's back, shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "Ji Yunnuo, Ji Yunnuo, who did you learn this worthless look from?"
Ji Yunnuo and Shen Ningyuan walked out of Ningle Tower side by side.
As they parted, the two continued their conversation.
Shen Ningyuan responded to Ji Yunnuo from time to time, and the two looked very close.
But I didn’t know that on a tall building not far away.
A pair of fierce eyes were staring at the scene intently.
"What are you looking at? Your eyes are almost popping out of your head. If you have the guts, rush over right now and kill the young widow and her brother-in-law."
Luo Ziyuan held the large bowl and ate noodles with big mouthfuls, while winking and teasing Xie Wanzhou.
"Kill them?" Xie Wanzhou snorted coldly, "That would be too easy for them!"
After saying this, Xie Wanzhou suddenly calmed down and looked at Luo Ziyuan in surprise.
Nene asked: "Why did I say that just now?"
Luo Ziyuan shrugged, "Who knows? Maybe you put yourself in the role of catching an adulterer?"
Xie Wanzhou: "..."
After a moment of silence, Xie Wanzhou continued to look in the direction of Ningle Tower.
He spoke in a low voice: “Find out what the relationship is between Shen Ningyuan and Ji Yunnuo!”
"Is there any need to check? Of course they are uncle and sister-in-law!"
Luo Ziyuan took a sip of noodles and said unhappily.
Xie Wanzhou thought about it and it seemed so.
He immediately said, "Since they are uncle and sister-in-law, then it's okay."
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziyuan added, "Xie Wanzhou, are you stupid or am I? Don't you know that throughout history, in aristocratic families, it is normal for a younger brother-in-law to marry his sister-in-law, or for an older brother-in-law to marry his younger sister-in-law?"
"In that case, we must investigate further!"
As he spoke, Xie Wanzhou looked at Ling Qing coldly, "Go and find out immediately what exactly was agreed upon between Shen Ningyuan and Ji Yunnuo."
Xie Wanzhou narrowed his eyes.
Shen Ningyuan is a person who will not do anything without profit.
If Ji Yunnuo couldn't bring her something, she would definitely not have any contact with him.
If that's the case, then he'll investigate it thoroughly.
Whatever Ji Yunnuo can give, he can give.
What Ji Yunnuo can't give, he can give even better!
Seeing Xie Wanzhou like this, Luo Ziyuan tutted his words: "Xie Wanzhou, your attitude towards this young widow is indeed different."
Xie Wanzhou glanced at Luo Ziyuan and said nothing.
Luo Ziyuan continued to ask: "You told me before that you were only interested in the Shen family, so why did you suddenly change your expression when you saw her and Ji Yunnuo being so close?"
Luo Ziyuan's words had hidden meaning.
However, at this moment, Xie Wanzhou didn't want to pay any attention to him at all. He paced back and forth irritably, trying to dispel the boredom in his heart.
At this moment, Luo Ziyuan suddenly shouted: "Ji Yunnuo kissed him!"
Xie Wanzhou was shocked and strode to the window, looking nervously at the gate of Ningle Tower.
When he looked carefully, he saw only Ji Yunnuo at the huge entrance of Ningle Building. Where was Shen Ningyuan?
At the same time, Luo Ziyuan's wild laughter rang in his ears.
