Cheng Wu turned around suddenly, his expression ferocious. Just as he was about to ask loudly, Ji Mingxuan spoke again.
"The nationally renowned Dr. Long is accompanying Feifei now. He is a man respected by the Emperor. His diagnosis is that Feifei needs to rest for the next year. This means that within the next year, Feifei will not be married off by her grandparents. Most importantly, the Crown Prince is still alive!"
Ji Mingxuan said.
"Is Feifei really sick?"
Cheng Wu asked.
"Just think of her as being ill! Doctor Long has a very good personal relationship with my father, and no one knows about it, so don't worry. I said a year, and it's a year. Maybe after a year, she'll be well again."
Ji Mingxuan shook his head and smiled.
Cheng Wu understood that Ji Feifei was not sick, but was just taking a temporary measure to avoid imperial power and getting involved in the imperial power struggle.
"Fatty knows about this?"
Cheng Wu asked again.
"Yes, Miss Cheng knows. In my opinion, Miss Cheng is more stable than you and loves her family more than you do."
Ji Mingxuan struck without hesitation.
Cheng Wu pursed his lips.
Indeed, in the year that Ji Feifei was away, what he did did not take into consideration the feelings of his family.
"Awu, my father and I have made all the arrangements. Do you want to listen?"
Ji Mingxuan changed his name.
Cheng Wu took a deep breath and suppressed the thought of going to Beijing to find Ji Feifei. He moved to Ji Mingxuan's side with difficulty as if his heels were filled with lead and sat down again.
"First, I must explain the current situation at court. The Emperor is strong and healthy, and has personally taught the Crown Prince since he was young. As long as the Crown Prince remains safe, it won't be anyone else's turn. Three years ago, the Crown Prince suddenly fell seriously ill, and his condition recurred. The ambitions of the other princes gradually became apparent. The only person the Jibei Marquisate needs to win over is my father, the General Zhennan. My family's stance is always with the Emperor, and we will be loyal to whoever holds that position. Therefore, my father will not agree to this marriage."
"Without my grandparents, given my father's temper, this marriage wouldn't have been possible. Fortunately, this was just a private deal between the Second Prince and my grandfather, so there's still room for redemption. But for now, it's best not to let the Second Prince know that you and Feifei are his biological child. Otherwise, we won't be able to protect the Cheng family, and we'll have to protect ourselves."
"Awu, do you understand what I said?"
Ji Mingxuan analyzed the situation for Cheng Wu and asked.
"Then if the Second Prince is lucky enough to succeed, wouldn't it be even more difficult for Feifei and me?"
Cheng Wu frowned.
"Are you afraid?"
Ji Mingxuan asked back.
"If that day ever comes, I hope Lord Ji and General Ji can keep my family safe!"
Cheng Wu pondered for a while and said.
He has calmed down now, and what Cheng Yue said last night keeps echoing in his mind.
He began to learn to think about his family.
"So, I came to Taoyuan County to provide you with an environment so that your family can have enough ability to protect themselves!"
Ji Mingxuan smiled and said.
"My Lord, are you talking about Jin Yan and Jin Xing?"
Cheng Wu reacted and asked.
"Not only them, but also you. To be honest, my father and I look down on you for being just a small constable. We really do. Of course, it's not because you were born in the countryside, nor is it because you're poor, but because you don't have the ambition to make progress. You missed the last martial arts exam, and now you're content to be just a small constable?"
Ji Mingxuan said this with a very disgusted expression.
