Chapter 629 The Yu Family’s Daughter Doesn’t Want to Be a Concubine
Ji Yunshu was still hesitating whether to step forward, but Princess Rong'an had already noticed her with her sharp eyes.
"Ah Shu, what a coincidence."
Ji Yunshu didn't think that she had a close enough relationship with Princess Rong'an to call her so affectionately.
Moreover, this was her first time going out after the birthday banquet of Princess Lin'an, and she happened to meet these two people. It couldn't be a coincidence at all.
Since Princess Rong'an had been unkind to her from the beginning, there was no need for her to be hypocritical with her.
So Ji Yunshu stood still and said simply, "Unfortunately, I was just about to leave."
Princess Rong'an showed a momentary surprise on her face, but it was fleeting. She seemed not to hear Ji Yunshu's dissatisfaction with her.
"It's still early. Why are you going back so early? There's nothing going on at your house."
Ji Yunshu said bluntly, "You won't go home if everything is fine? Besides, who said everything is fine? The Marquis's wife is sick, and I still have to go and take care of her."
Although these words were spoken to Princess Rong'an, Ji Yunshu kept staring at Miss Yu Qi who was beside her while he spoke.
The other person lowered his head, hiding the emotions in his eyes under his thick and curled eyelashes.
Princess Rong'an seemed determined not to let Ji Yunshu leave: "Really? I heard that the Marquis's wife has been ill for some time. You can't wait to take care of her right now, right? We finally met, please talk to me."
Ji Yunshu said impatiently: "What do we have to talk about? Does Miss Yu want to be a concubine?"
Miss Yu Qi seemed to have not expected that she would say such words directly. She suddenly raised her head and said with some embarrassment, "Madam, I don't know what those rumors are about, but I don't have any improper thoughts about Prince Zhao."
Ji Yunshu said indifferently: "This is your business, it has nothing to do with me."
Princess Rong'an studied her expression, unable to discern what she was thinking. She simply replied, "I didn't say anything that day, and I don't know how such outrageous rumors spread. A girl from the Yu family will never be allowed to be a concubine."
Ji Yunshu: "What does this have to do with me? Since it's just a rumor, you can go find the person who spread it. I'm just hearing it from others."
Princess Rong'an saw that Ji Yunshu had no intention of sitting down to talk with her. She stared at her for a while and suddenly asked, "Are those rumors out there true? You've been married for so long and still don't have children. Could it be that there's something wrong with Prince Zhao's health?"
Ji Yunshu looked back at her: "Now people are saying that the Yu family is going to send Miss Seven to the prince as a concubine. Is that true?"
Before Princess Rong'an could say anything, Miss Yu Qi said anxiously, "Of course not. Everyone knows that daughters of the Yu family do not become concubines."
Ji Yunshu looked at her and nodded: "Oh, you want to be his wife."
Yu Qi stood there in a daze, looking as if he hadn't reacted at all, and didn't even refute this statement.
Ji Yunshu curled the corners of his mouth, said nothing more, and walked straight to the door after passing the two of them.
Cen Xi had been following her and had heard everything that had just happened.
After leaving the restaurant, she said with some concern: "That Miss Yu Qi, she doesn't look simple."
And she is indeed interested in Prince Zhao.
She tried to explain to Ji Yunshu that the daughter of the Yu family would not be a concubine, perhaps in an attempt to temporarily dispel Ji Yunshu's hostility, but she did not expect that her thoughts would be directly exposed by Ji Yunshu.
Ji Yunshu nodded absentmindedly.
Cen Xi was a little puzzled: "What on earth is she thinking? A good lady from an aristocratic family, why would she choose to be someone's concubine instead of a wife?"
Ji Yunshu looked at the sky outside and sighed: "Not everyone in this world has the right to choose."
Cen Xi understood: "Then...what are you going to do?"
The Yu family is of great importance and not everyone can easily refuse it.
That Miss Yu Qi seems to be not only a beauty, but also very smart.
Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "What do I need to plan? It's not like I want to be someone's concubine. Just wait and see what Miss Yu Qi has to offer."
Although he didn't seem to care much on the surface, Ji Yunshu's mood was inevitably affected.
She returned to the Marquis's Mansion, had lunch, and rested for a while.
Thinking of Miss Yu Qi, she inevitably thought of Yao.
Suddenly remembering that he had not seen Yao since he came back, he went to the main courtyard.
She felt that some questions might be answered by Yao.
Although the Marquis had issued an order not to allow anyone to visit the Yao family, Ji Yunshu was obviously not among them.
As the future mistress of the Marquis's Mansion, there is no place in the mansion that she cannot go.
Lord Zhao didn't let anyone stop her.
Ji Yunshu was very surprised to see Yao again after more than half a year.
Yao had really changed so much. She was still beautiful, but it was the kind of beauty that resembled fallen flowers.
She no longer looked like the gorgeous lady hanging high on a tree, and seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
There are even white hairs on his temples.
But her temperament became more calm. When Ji Yunshu walked in, she was sitting at the desk copying scriptures.
Seeing Ji Yunshu come in, she just looked up and continued doing her own thing.
Ji Yunshu didn't disturb her, but sat aside and watched her.
Looking at it this way, Ji Yunshu felt that Yu Qi's temperament was indeed very similar to hers.
It’s just that Yu Qi lacks experience and thinks he’s smart, so he likes to treat others as fools.
Yu Qi didn't perform well in today's play.
Ji Yunshu sat like this for half an hour. She was lost in thought and didn't feel the time was long.
However, Yao was not as calm as she looked. Ever since Ji Yunshu entered the room, she could no longer calm down.
These days, she was under house arrest by Marquis Zhao, and all the servants around her were replaced.
Cut off all contact with the outside world.
She didn't even know what happened to Zhao Heng.
She didn't think Ji Yunshu's sudden appearance would be good news for her.
After absentmindedly writing a page of scriptures, she finally couldn't help but ask, "I wonder if the Crown Prince's wife came here for something?"
Her voice brought Ji Yunshu back to his senses. She stroked the raised lines on the teacup with her fingers and said with a smile, "Nothing. I just heard that the lady was ill, so I came to see her."
Yao looked at her with a clear look in her eyes, "Do I look sick to you?"
She didn't believe that Ji Yunshu didn't know what was going on?
Zhao Shen takes Ji Yunshu with him almost every time he goes out, so you can imagine how good the relationship between the couple is.
Ji Yunshu didn't care whether she believed it or not, and smiled innocently: "Just a few pleasantries. I heard that no one has come here for a long time, Madam. Is there anything you want to know?"
Yao: "You will tell me anything I want to know?"
There was so much she wanted to know, but she didn't think Ji Yunshu would be kind enough to tell her.
Ji Yunshu shrugged: "It depends on the situation. I'm free anyway, so I'll just say a few words. My wife can't go out anyway."
Yao stared at her and said, "The thing I regret most is not insisting that Heng'er marry you."
If Zhao Heng had married Ji Yunshu, nothing would be the same as it is now.
At that time, she felt that there were so many noble ladies in the capital, and it would not be difficult to plan a new path for Zhao Heng.
But now she realized that there was a huge difference between marrying someone else and marrying Ji Yunshu.
