Chapter 188: Entering the palace and acting pretentiously
"Hmm?" Luo Ziyuan looked surprised, "Tear open this cloud?"
Luo Ziyuan looked up at the sky, looking confused.
"What are you going to do by tearing up this cloud?"
"Watch the moon."
Xie Wanzhou raised his lips and chuckled, and it was obvious that there was something else behind his words.
There was actually a hint of pride in his eyes as he looked at Shen Ningyuan.
Seeing this scene, Luo Ziyuan rolled his eyes and slapped Xie Wanzhou on the forehead.
"You're a cripple, and you're so proud of yourself. Look at what you can do."
"She's not your wife, why are you so proud?"
Luo Ziyuan did not hide his disdain at all.
Xie Wanzhou did not respond, but looked at Shen Ningyuan with a look that was a little more profound than before.
Luo Ziyuan raised his eyebrows, "Xie Wanzhou, you don't really want to do this, do you?"
Xie Wanzhou smiled even more deeply, and suddenly squeezed out a few words, "Maybe, it's feasible?"
After saying this, without giving Luo Ziyuan a chance to react, Xie Wanzhou suddenly jumped off the roof.
"Hey!" Luo Ziyuan chased after him, "What's feasible? Explain yourself clearly!"
In a flash, the two figures disappeared into the night.
At this moment, Shen Ningyuan moved her gaze from the horizon to her side, picked up the ginger soup on the table, and drank it slowly, spoonful by spoonful.
Suddenly remembering something, Shen Ningyuan asked, "Is Yi Ge back?"
Lan Yin nodded, "I'm back."
"When she came back, the young lady was in the front hall. I saw that she was very tired, so I asked her to go downstairs and rest."
Lan Yin looked towards Yi Ge's room and said, "I guess he should be awake by now, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open. Yi Ge had already changed his clothes and was standing in the room with an expressionless face.
Walking to Chen Ningyuan, Yi Ge said nothing, waiting for Chen Ningyuan to ask questions.
After a while, Shen Ningyuan finished drinking the ginger soup and looked up at Yi Ge, "Did you find out?"
Yi Ge nodded and said, "Miss, after Ji Zehai was locked up, Ji Yunchuan didn't make any movement. It seems that he is waiting for instructions?"
"No movement at all?"
Shen Ningyuan frowned and put down the bowl in his hand.
“Such a big thing happened to the Ji family, but Ji Yunchuan didn’t make any move…” Shen Ningyuan shook her head, “Something’s wrong.”
Yi Ge continued with what Shen Ningyuan said: "If I guess correctly, the people behind Ji Yunchuan must have promised him something, so Ji Yunchuan didn't take any action."
"Promise to keep the Ji family's title?" Chen Ningyuan sneered, "Another person who overestimates his own abilities has come! It has been so long since the incident happened, and the emperor has not touched the Ji family yet. He is just waiting for my father's attitude."
"What's funny is that none of them realized this and they were so confident that they could save the Ji family on their own."
As he spoke, the coldness on Shen Ningyuan's face became even worse.
He climbed up by stepping on her and the Shen family's shoulders, but he despised the Shen family from the bottom of his heart.
She would make them pay for their ridiculousness.
Thinking of this, Chen Ningyuan looked at Yi Ge and said softly: "Tomorrow, you follow me in disguise and sneak into Madam Ji's motorcade to enter the palace. I want to see if this Madam Ji, who has an imperial decree, can meet the emperor!"
"By the way, when you enter the palace, find out if anyone has ever pleaded for the Ji family in front of the emperor after Ji Zehai was imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison."
"yes."
Yi Ge obeyed the order.
Shen Ningyuan didn't want to talk anymore, so she lay on the chair and continued to look up at the sky.
She knew that although the foundation was still there, the Ji family was already crumbling.
Just a slight push can completely overturn it.
Before that, she would let Ji Yunchuan watch helplessly as the things that originally belonged to him were lost bit by bit!
The next day.
As soon as Old Madam Ji got up, she changed into the gorgeous imperial dress that she hadn't touched for decades.
He couldn't wait to get on the carriage and rushed into the palace.
Chen listened to Shen Ningyuan’s advice and was afraid that Madam Ji would say the wrong thing when she entered the palace.
She used various excuses and finally persuaded Madam Ji to take her into the palace.
When getting on the carriage, Chen looked a little nervous because she was worried.
When Madam Ji saw her like this, she did not hide the contempt in her eyes at all.
"Look at you, you are so unpresentable!" Madam Ji said bluntly, "When you go to the palace to see His Majesty, be careful about your words and actions, don't embarrass me!"
Chen said nothing.
But what I was thinking in my mind was: Whether I can see His Majesty later is still unknown.
Madam Ji didn't know what Chen was thinking. Seeing that she didn't say anything, she became more and more excited and directly scolded her, "My son is so miserable. He married a woman like you, who can't help him at the critical moment."
Hearing this, Chen's face changed and she couldn't help but want to refute.
Before he could even finish his words, Madam Ji pointed at his nose and scolded him, "You useless thing, do you still want to refute me?"
"If your mother's family had the ability to plan for my son, he would have been released from prison long ago!"
"As for me, at my age, to drag my old bones into the palace to meet His Majesty?"
Madam Ji spoke louder and louder, and Chen's face turned red with anxiety.
But the other party happened to be her mother-in-law, and she had no room to refute at all. She could only lower her head and sulk.
Shen Ningyuan followed outside the carriage, and she could hear clearly the conversation between the two people inside.
good.
She loved watching the dog-biting scenes the most.
After a stick of incense, the carriage stopped in front of the palace gate.
Chen was the first to get off the carriage, and stood aside extremely reluctantly, helping Madam Ji get off the carriage.
After getting off the car, Madam Ji adjusted her clothes and hair crown, and stood in front of the palace gate with a proud look on her face.
When the guard at the gate saw her, he was stunned for a moment, then walked forward.
He asked politely, "Madam, may I ask what you are doing..."
"You are blind!" Madam Ji scolded directly, "I am a first-rank imperial lady of the current dynasty. I have recently returned to the capital and have come to see His Majesty. Why don't you go and report it quickly!"
The guard was stunned again.
He didn't expect that the other party's attitude would be so bad when he just asked politely.
Although he was dissatisfied, seeing that the other party did not seem easy to deal with, the guards did not dare to be negligent and quickly passed the message inside.
"Please wait a moment. I will report it right away."
Madam Ji raised her hand and said, "Go ahead."
Seeing her putting on airs, Shen Ningyuan, who had disguised herself as a maid, had an even more obvious look of watching a good show in her eyes.
I don’t know if Madam Ji can still act as pretentious as she does now, since she won’t even be able to see the emperor later.
Half an incense stick of time later, Xie Lixuan's personal eunuch came over.
When he came to Madam Ji, the eunuch glanced at her and said, "Madam Ji, right?"
Madam Ji nodded quickly, "It's me."
It was completely different from the attitude he had towards the gatekeeper just now.
"Your Majesty is discussing important matters with Prince Min in the Imperial Study. Please follow me to the side hall and wait."
Although he was not sure whether the imperial edict of the person in front of him would be pleasing to the emperor.
But he did not dare to be negligent and could only invite Madam Ji in first.
"Okay, okay, thank you for your help, sir."
When Madam Ji heard this, a smile instantly covered her face. She glanced at Chen subtly, her eyes full of pride.
