Chapter 622 Banquet
At that time, she was determined to change Xiao Yue's fate in the book, and felt that marrying anyone would be better than going to Mobei to marry a foreign prince.
Now that the issue in Mobei has been successfully resolved and Xiao Yue is married, she will no longer go to marry into another clan.
Everything seemed to be going the way she hoped.
Lan Yin smiled and said, "A married couple lives behind closed doors. How can others know if their life is good or not? But considering Miss Xiao's personality, if things aren't going well, she'll probably make a fuss. Now that I haven't heard anything for so long, it must be good."
Ji Yunshu thought that this might not be the case. Lan Ting was the person chosen by Xiao Yue herself, and she had wanted to elope with him at the beginning.
Now that everything is finally going as planned, even if there is something wrong, I wouldn't be able to shout it out.
She thought for a moment and then asked, "The Princess is not very old, and it doesn't seem like she's celebrating her birthday this year. Why are you thinking of holding a birthday party?"
As a member of the royal family, the Prince of Lin'an's Mansion has always kept a low profile.
At this time, King Yong's rebellion had just ended, and everyone was in danger. All the families that were supposed to hold banquets canceled them.
The Prince's Mansion came forward at this time.
Ji Yunshu felt a little strange.
Lan Yin heard Ji Yunshu's confusion and explained, "The incident of Prince Yong's rebellion is over. We can't continue living like this in the capital. After all, spring is about to arrive. The Prince's Mansion holding a banquet at this time may be the emperor's intention. Also, Miss Xiao is married, but Prince Xiao is still unengaged."
Ji Yunshu suddenly realized that because of the incident involving Prince Yong, the imperial court had purged a wave of people. Recently, the imperial court had issued many transfer orders, and many officials had come to Beijing from other places with their families.
Most of those who can be promoted at this time are people trusted by the emperor.
It is indeed a good opportunity to meet each other.
As for the third wife, perhaps she also wants to marry her daughter into the Prince's Mansion?
Ji Yunshu said, "In that case, I will go to this banquet. Let's get ready."
Lan Yin nodded.
This was the first time Ji Yunshu went out to a banquet after returning. Lan Yin did not dare to be careless and carefully prepared everything from clothes to jewelry.
On the day of the banquet, she dressed up and went out, and found that Wei Yuanmin was also going.
She hadn't paid attention to what was happening in Zhao Heng's yard these days, so she really didn't know about this.
What surprised her was that Zhao Heng actually accompanied Wei Yuanmin to the banquet.
The moment she saw the two of them, her surprise almost showed on her face.
It was Zhao Heng who stepped forward first to greet her and Zhao Shen: "Brother, sister-in-law."
Zhao Shen nodded expressionlessly as a response.
Even after getting on the carriage, Ji Yunshu still hadn't come back to his senses: "What's going on with these two people?"
Zhao Shen didn't take it seriously: "After all, they are husband and wife. They are just attending a banquet together. What could go wrong?"
Ji Yunshu felt that his attitude was too indifferent: "What kind of husband and wife are they? They clearly wish each other dead, so how can they stand together like that without caring about others?"
Zhao Shen said nonchalantly, "There are many people in this world who wish the other person dead, but few show it during their meetings. This only shows that they have both improved."
Ji Yunshu: “…”
It should be said that Zhao Shen is worthy of being a man who can do great things. His perspective on things is completely different from hers.
Moreover, he had been severely harmed by Yao in both his past and present lives, and there was also the hatred of his mother's murder. However, Zhao Shen had been able to endure it silently until now and had not taken any action against Yao.
Ji Yunshu suddenly couldn't understand what Zhao Shen was thinking?
Her unexpected silence made Zhao Shen a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you talking?"
Ji Yunshu raised his eyes and looked at him: "Do you hate Zhao Heng?"
When Wei Yuanmin asked her this question that day, she said without hesitation that she hated it.
In fact, it was not for myself, but for the little girl who had disappeared in this body.
What about Zhao Shen, does he hate it?
If Yao had not been pregnant with Zhao Heng, his mother might not have been frightened and had a difficult delivery.
Of course, the Yao family would definitely have other ways to achieve their goals, but the reality is that Zhao Heng was the fuse.
Zhao Shen realized what she was asking and paused for a moment before answering, "When I was little, I didn't know better. I hated him. Later, maybe it was because too much time had passed and there were many things I needed to deal with, so I didn't have the time to think about it. But I knew from the beginning that between Yao Shi, Zhao Heng, and me, it was either you or me."
Ji Yunshu understood that his target had always been the lives of Yao and Zhao Heng, so it didn't matter whether they hated him or not.
It’s really simple and direct.
This is much more convenient than Wei Yuanmin, who was struggling with whether to hate the other person or not while going out to act with the other person.
Her goal then returned to the beginning: "I always feel that it's not a good thing for these two to get together."
What could possibly bring two people with a near-blood feud to an agreement?
Ji Yunshu thought that for Wei Yuanmin, perhaps only her mother, the eldest princess, could make her back down.
The same goes for Zhao Heng, most likely it was for the Yao family.
The person who was related to both of them was King Yong.
Thinking of this possibility, she couldn't help but look up at Zhao Shen.
Zhao Shen naturally thought of this, but he didn't think Zhao Heng could make much of a splash.
"Just attend the banquet and someone will take care of the rest."
Ji Yunshu nodded.
As long as it doesn't affect her, she doesn't really want to worry about these things.
The Marquis of Changxing's Mansion and the Prince of Jun's Mansion were not far from each other. While the two were talking, the carriage arrived.
The banquet at the Prince's Mansion was very large and many people were invited.
When they arrived, almost the entire street was blocked with carriages.
It took a lot of effort to move to the gate of the palace.
Xiao Yue returned to her parents' home early today to help receive guests.
Seeing Ji Yunshu, he hurried over to greet her, even jokingly saying, "You're so kind to come. The palace is truly glorious today."
You have to know that Ji Yunshu seldom attends banquets. The number of banquets she has personally attended can be counted on one hand.
As Ji Yunshu walked in, he said, "Of course I have to give face to the Princess of the County. I know this place very well. Go in by yourself and do your thing."
Xiao Yue said, "I'm just a married girl, what could possibly happen to me? I came all the way here specifically to wait for you."
Ji Yunshu: "What are you waiting for me for?"
Xiao Yue was a little embarrassed: "I haven't seen you for such a long time, isn't it okay that I miss you?"
Ji Yunshu: "...You're already married, and you're staying with your handsome husband every day instead of living a good life. What do you want from me?"
Xiao Yue was so angry that she wanted to hit someone: "Who said I didn't live a good life? I'm living a good life."
Having said that, his eyes dimmed.
She had never been one to hide her emotions.
Ji Yunshu sighed and took her to a less crowded place: "Tell me, what happened?"
Xiao Yue lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously picking at the embroidery on the handkerchief: "Nothing."
Seeing her like this, Ji Yunshu immediately made a judgment and felt that there might be something wrong, but it should not be a big problem.
She rolled her eyes and said, "If you don't want to say it, don't act like this. If someone doesn't know, they might think I'm bullying you."
Xiao Yue said aggrievedly: "What I want to say is, I just don't know how to say it."
Ji Yun was pleased with the young lady: "Just say whatever you want to say."
