Chapter 236 What is it that the Crown Prince cannot hear?
Okay, I'll talk to my mother and ask her to get married soon. If that doesn't work, I'll find her a husband. An orphan girl can't marry into a family with a higher social standing than hers.
【Well, just you wait and see!】 Everyone's minds immediately started racing with all sorts of thoughts. They looked at each other, exchanging unspoken messages.
"Mom, can we eat now?"
"Okay, let's go."
There were plenty of delicious food and drinks on the table, and Ji Yingying sat down, ready to start eating.
The gatekeeper came in to report that the Crown Prince was inviting His Highness to the palace. If it were the Emperor who was inviting him, it would be Eunuch Cao who would come in person, but since it was the Crown Prince who was inviting him, it would be Eunuch Li.
Eunuch Li is a bit old and walks with a bit of difficulty, so he probably hasn't arrived yet.
"Crown Prince, tell him to wait!" If even the Emperor is willing to listen, then the Crown Prince will certainly do the same.
"Cousin, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Yang Dani blurted out without hesitation!
She already disliked this cousin, so why could she openly speak ill of her while her uncle and aunt didn't help her?
She's a guest, after all!
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at her, and she immediately felt wronged again.
"I'm sorry, Uncle and Aunt. I was just worried that my cousin might offend the Crown Prince. If she does, our family... won't we be dragged down? Besides, it's my cousin's good fortune that the Crown Prince has taken a liking to her!"
[Hiss~ Host, you're going to torture her! I've been in this world for eleven years, and I've never seen such a naive and innocent person. Even our second sister-in-law's illegitimate daughter didn't act like this.]
Jenny: ...No! You're wrong, her illegitimate daughter is even more of a white lotus than her.
This woman's methods are too low, which is why she's so vulgar and lacks any semblance of refinement, making her seem petty and unsophisticated.
“Da Ni, your cousin is an official of the imperial court, but the Crown Prince doesn’t think much of her.”
"Father, what nonsense are you talking about..." Ji Yingying snorted, then said to Yang Dani, "Cousin, your cousin me has been appointed by the Emperor as the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works. I also occasionally go to the Court of Judicial Review, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of Rites to report for duty. Moreover, they call me whenever there are any difficult or complicated cases. So, the Crown Prince doesn't like me. The Crown Prince already has a Crown Princess."
[Hmph, if I don't show off, you really won't know how powerful I am!]
"I...I didn't know my cousin was so amazing!"
“Yes, that’s how capable and outstanding your cousin is, what can you do about it?” Just as Ji Yingying finished speaking, Eunuch Li rushed in.
He was old; he was originally an old man who served the former empress, and later he served the crown prince.
This Eunuch Li has served the Crown Prince for much longer than Xun Lin and the other guards. Originally, he was to be allowed to retire and enjoy his old age, but he refused.
"Eunuch Li, you're so old, why are you calling me? Look at you, you're panting. What if something happens on the way? Wouldn't the Crown Prince be in trouble?"
"Oh dear, Your Highness, it's not that the Crown Prince has something to discuss with you in the palace, but all the guards around him have gone out to do other things, so the Crown Prince has no one else to rely on, which is why he called this old servant to invite you."
"Oh, alright! I'll go to the palace now. It's so late at night, are you planning to make sure I don't have to attend court tomorrow?" Ji Yingying put down her chopsticks, then grabbed a chicken leg and followed Eunuch Li out the door.
"Eunuch Li, are you injured in the leg?"
"It's alright, Your Highness, please go into the palace first. This old servant walks slowly and won't be that fast."
"Alright, take your time, I'll go into the palace and take a look."
I have this feeling that the Emperor and Crown Prince really can't stand not seeing me for a day; they weren't like this before.
[This means you're very useful; otherwise, they wouldn't keep asking to see you.]
As soon as Ji Yingying left, Fang Yulan said, "Da Ni, we are willing to take you in, but not so that you can act arrogantly in my house. Starting tomorrow, we will find a good young man for you in the manor. However, don't try to use the name of our Ji family to tarnish our reputation. If I find out, I will kick you out immediately."
"You must have visited your hometown on your way to the capital, right? Even your own parents wouldn't dare to do anything to us, but you, a distant niece, dare to act recklessly. Don't blame us for being impolite."
The words were too harsh, and Yang Dani's eyes filled with tears, but she dared not cry. She did not respond immediately, waiting for her uncle to speak. Unfortunately, her uncle did not speak, nor did her two cousins, let alone Yanni.
After a long pause, she finally said, "Da Ni understands!"
Fang Yulan frowned and glared at Ji Cailiang with disdain. What kind of relatives are these?
Having no other choice, Ji Cailiang could only try to please him with a smile.
"snort……"
Upon hearing the sound, the two brothers quickly ate. Before their sister was born, their mother was very gentle and easy to talk to, but everything changed after she was born.
Not to mention his rudeness, the "tigress" people talk about might actually be referring to his mother.
Ji Jiayu ate a couple of mouthfuls of rice, then quickly put some food on Yanni's plate, gesturing for her to eat quickly.
Yanni also knew that Fang Yulan would get extremely angry whenever it came to Ji Yingying's affairs.
She looked helplessly at her brother-in-law and husband, served food to Fang Yulan, and said, "Mother, don't be angry. My cousin's matter is very simple. Cousin, tell me if you like scholars or military generals? Then let my sister take a look at your face and find someone suitable for you, and that will be fine!"
Fang Yulan sighed and quickly asked, "Da Ni, tell me, do you prefer a military general or a scholar? Your aunt will find one for you tomorrow."
Yang Dani lowered her head, her face flushed, and after a long while she said, "I like scholars."
"Alright, tomorrow we'll send someone to look around and find some portraits. Then we'll let your cousin take a look. If there's a suitable one, then she can get married."
"yes"
After appeasing Fang Yulan, the group ate in much better spirits. However, after only a few bites, someone came to summon Ji Jiaming to the palace.
Ji Jiaming immediately went to the palace.
At this moment, Ji Yingying was sitting on a chair in the Imperial Study, eating something.
The Crown Prince handed her the memorial, and Ji Yingying was quite shocked after reading it.
This Linfeng Kingdom is up to something!
"Yingying, tell me, what does Linfeng Kingdom want to do this time?"
"I don't know." You ask me? Who should I ask? Everyone is sitting in this room, and no one has ever left this room.
"You really don't know?" The Crown Prince waited for a long time but didn't hear her thoughts, and he was completely numb!
"I don't know. I've been sitting here for a while. How would I know that Linfeng Kingdom is going to send troops to attack us?"
[Host, isn't the Kingdom of Linfeng a bit crazy?]
How to say it?
[I have a feeling that they're watching something in Tianyou Dynasty.]
[It seems like Linfeng Kingdom was causing trouble last year, and it's the same them this year. Why don't we...] Before he could finish speaking, the Crown Prince became anxious.
What comes after this? What is it that the crown prince cannot listen to?
