[Yes! Anyway, everyone already hates Yan San, and coupled with the stubbornness of this concubine's daughter, that's why she hates Yan San so much.]
[This Yan family is really in trouble. Look at all these scheming women they've produced. It's such a waste of talent not to send them to the palace for palace intrigue. They could even send them to an enemy country and turn it upside down. How can Yan San possibly thrive growing up in a place like this?]
【Why can't she be better? She's, after all, Minister Yan's own granddaughter, and he personally taught her. Her abilities are no less than Minister Yan's. It's just that this illegitimate daughter is no good; she's been spoiled. As for Yan Er, she's from the second branch of the family, and the second branch is made up of illegitimate children.】
Indeed, monogamy is great; there's not so much backstabbing and intrigue.
[Yes, your family is the only decent one in the entire capital. In the inner quarters, it's just me, the old woman, all alone.]
"That's right, my dad's a total doting husband. When my mom's around, he's like a dog. No wonder my family is so great; those who love their wives thrive!"
Immediately, everyone agreed that this statement was quite good.
[Hey! This group of people is stuck? Why hasn't this been resolved yet?]
"Greetings, Lord Ji. I am deeply grateful for your life-saving grace today. Guards, take her back. This matter concerns the Yan family. I will inform my grandfather upon my return." Yan San suddenly bowed to Ji Yingying. If Ji Yingying hadn't suddenly become so engrossed in the gossip that everyone was shocked, she wouldn't have been rescued so quickly. Today, she was not vigilant enough, and with Madam Fang's letter, why would she have come here?
"fine."
After replying, Ji Yingying whispered to him, "Uncle Chengshun, is your son not very capable?"
[Host, that's his grandson, his legitimate grandson.]
"Ahem~" [Why didn't you say so sooner! I'm so embarrassed.]
"No, it's that grandson of a bitch, how could he be so inhuman?"
[Host, please be more tactful.]
[I've already been very tactful! How much more tactful can this scumbag be?]
"Sigh, I've already sent someone to look for him," Uncle Chengshun sighed. This grandson is ruined.
[Why are you looking for him? His mistress is about to give birth. If you don't keep an eye on her, his first child might end up as a corpse!]
The people of Chengshun were all shocked.
"grandfather"
[He's not that good-looking, his only talent is his mouth.]
[It's really not good; they're all suffering from kidney deficiency.]
Hehe~
"Tell me what you've done?" How are we supposed to interrogate you like this? There's nothing to hide.
Just as Marquis Chengshun was in a dilemma, Yan San asked, "Young Master Yu, I've heard that you have some connection with my fifth sister?"
The illegitimate daughter of the Yan family had already been dismissed, and now she didn't even have a chance to defend herself.
"Yan San, don't talk nonsense. My relationship with your sister is completely innocent." Young Master Yu had just left to change his clothes, so he naturally didn't hear Ji Yingying's gossipy thoughts, otherwise he wouldn't have acted this way.
[Innocent my foot! His room is full of letters written to him by young girls because of his mouth, as well as some letters from young women.]
"Who?" Young Master Yu panicked. Who knew he had a letter?
Is he insane?
I don't know, but be careful anyway. Who knows, he might end up taking a liking to you and trying to seduce you again?
[Him? What's so appealing about him? Aren't the people from our Imperial City Guard better? They're all broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, aren't those long legs attractive? I like those short legs, haha, even if you gave them to me, I'd have to think twice about whether I could eat.]
They were devalued to nothing!
Uncle Chengshun was heartbroken; his grandson was ruined.
The eldest son and his wife, who had come upon hearing this, were terrified. They had heard that anyone exposed by Ji Yingying would either be promoted or beheaded. What about their son...?
I have a feeling that these two came with some trepidation.
【I feel like it too?】
"Hehe, so this is Lord Ji."
"Hehe, yes, hello everyone!"
"That, my son..."
"Oh? He's doing well. Well, everything's settled. Let's get back to the music and the dancing." Ji Yingying chuckled twice. "Yan San, come on, I'll take you to my mother. Let's have a good talk."
Yan San was embarrassed by the fact that he said it so openly. The matter hadn't even been settled yet, so how could he say such a thing in public?
However, more than half the people in the capital know what kind of person Ji Yingying is.
"mother"
"You've arrived." Fang Yulan was chatting with Madam Chengshun when she saw Ji Yingying arrive. She introduced Ji Yingying to Madam Chengshun, and Ji Yingying greeted her obediently, looking cute and well-behaved.
Upon seeing Yan San there again, he asked, "Is this the third young lady of the Yan family?"
"Jenny greets Madam Ji."
"Oh, good child, come and sit down."
Then, Ji Yingying ate, they chatted, Ji Yingying dozed off, and they continued chatting.
"My son, it's time to go back."
"Are you all done chatting?" Ji Yingying looked around. Everyone had left, but there were still a few flowers left, which looked quite pretty.
“This…” Ji Yingying noticed a plate of flowers by chance. They were quite pretty, and she couldn’t help but take a second look.
What kind of flower is this? It looks so strange. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.
Poppy flowers, you know what I mean.
Poppies? Goodness, no wonder they looked familiar.
"Young Master Ji, do you like these flowers?"
"Huh? I don't like it, I don't like it. Um, if you can, you should burn it. This flower is very harmful."
Back then, our ancestors tried to destroy these flowers... Never mind, I'd better go home and sleep. Since ancient times, who has ever escaped death? Let our loyal hearts shine in history...
"There's something wrong with these flowers." As soon as Ji Yingying left, Rong Yi came in to get the flowers and left.
As for the family affairs of Marquis Chengshun and Minister Yan, they were left to be handled by others. The Emperor had spoken, allowing Marquis Chengshun to resolve the matter himself. However, the Emperor bestowed a marriage upon Ji Jiaming and Yan San.
When the Emperor saw the flower, he didn't understand what it was all about. He asked Ji Yingying to take a closer look.
"Someone, summon the imperial physician."
Not long after, Judge Liu arrived.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects..." Before he could finish, the Emperor stopped him: "Quickly, take a look at this flower. Is it poisonous?"
"Yes..." Judge Liu took it back and spent a day studying it, only to come to one conclusion: it had an analgesic effect, but not enough to convince Ji Yingying that it had a burning effect.
"I'll find an opportunity to ask Ji San tomorrow."
"Yes," Judge Liu replied. The next day, before the morning court session, Judge Liu pulled the drowsy Ji Yingying aside and asked, "Young Lady Ji, I have something I would like to ask you."
"What's the problem?"
Ugh, so many things to do.
"What exactly is the purpose of this flower?"
[How did these poppies end up here? Don't use them carelessly, they might be made into drugs. However, you could suggest making painkillers, I've forgotten that there are no painkillers in this world, even anesthetics are scarce.]
