Chapter 841 Young General vs. Rich Lady 144
Ji Yunhuan understood that this girl was not just arrogant, she was targeting him!
"Stop PUAing me! What's wrong with me not being from Wangdu? Are you still discriminating against different regions? What's wrong with my low birth? Am I eating your rice? I know there's a banquet today, but I don't want to go. It's not like Huo Xiao won't take me with him."
If she went to such a formal occasion, she would have to kneel and worship as she didn't have any impressive status. She might as well just play with the palace maids.
Even if Huo Xiao supports her, it will still be troublesome. Traveling is all about having fun, and she doesn't want to get into trouble.
Ji Yunhuan served tea to see the guest off. "I thought you were pretty, so I wanted to chat with you and make friends with you. I was also thinking of giving you some rare things as gifts. Forget it, it's boring. There are so many noble ladies in Wangdu City anyway. I'll just find someone else to chat with."
Hua Xi stood up, holding a square handkerchief in her hand, and was very angry.
She just won't accept it!
At the banquet today, my brother mentioned the marriage in a tactful way. If General Huo understood, he should choose a day to propose marriage. If the brother keeps asking, the woman will naturally be reserved, but she will definitely agree in the end. This is something everyone knows.
But Huo Xiao made it clear on the spot, saying that he already had a loved one and had no intention of marrying into a noble family.
This is undoubtedly trampling on the Hua family's face. The Hua family has a daughter who is sought after by hundreds of families, even the queen, and Huo Xiao actually dared to refuse!
No one believed that he refused to marry into a noble family just for a country girl; he must have had other motives.
Hua Xi's heart was secretly broken, but she had to pretend that she didn't care. She found an excuse to go out, just to see the woman with her own eyes.
Even though General Huo used this as an excuse to reject the marriage, this woman still lived in Qinghe Palace and was always by General Huo's side. She just wanted to know, what was so good about this woman that made General Huo care so much about her!
The maid felt sorry for her young lady. The young lady was like the bright moon in the sky and had always been admired by everyone. She had never suffered such treatment.
The young lady is very reserved and there are some things she cannot say, so let her say them.
"Miss, please don't be angry. There is no need to be angry with such a rude person. You are kind-hearted and speak politely, but it is like playing the lute to a cow. Such a person will not understand."
"Miss Ji, you should also recognize your own status. General Huo is young and romantic. Pingyang City is located in a remote area and there is not much good color. The general was temporarily deceived by you and doted on you. It is true, but the general has great ambitions and noble status, and an orphan girl is not worthy of him."
"When the general gets married tomorrow, he will naturally not keep you. If you are good, he will give you some dowry and marry you off. If you are not good, he may kill you directly to avoid leaving behind trouble. If you are obedient, it is right to leave as soon as possible. The Hua family will not treat you unfairly."
"If you are stubborn and insist on wanting something you can't have, you should think carefully about the consequences."
The maid of the Hua family was more confident than the young ladies from smaller families. She felt justified and her arguments were logical when she taught Ji Yunhuan a lesson.
Ji Yunhuan exclaimed, "Wow, you are so arrogant! Huo Xiao's wedding is also my wedding, what does it have to do with you? You are really meddling in other people's business. Huo Xiao must have rejected the Hua family, otherwise you wouldn't come here and bark like dogs."
"You really think you are so great. What is the Hua family? There are so many noble families. If one is gone, another will take its place, just like leeks. The more you cut, the more you get. Huo Xiao didn't become a great general king because of you. Now you are the ones begging Huo Xiao, why are you still putting on airs? It's really funny."
"I'm telling you, it's not that I can't live without Huo Xiao, it's that my Huo Xiao likes me and can't live without me. Give up on this idea as soon as possible. Unless we break up, don't even think about getting involved with my man! I also advise you to be more obedient. Huo Xiao has a bad temper. Don't make an enemy out of a marriage."
Eunuch Wan Ping came over with a group of young eunuchs, waved his whisk, and said loudly: "Miss Ji, how are you? It's time for lunch. His Majesty sent us to invite the young lady over."
"Hey, isn't this Miss Hua? Why are you here? This is not the place for you. Why don't you send Miss Hua back quickly and take good care of her so that she doesn't get lost again."
When Ji Yunhuan heard the word "Flower Girl", he found it very funny and laughed.
In Hua Xi's eyes, Ji Yunhuan was just a villain who was trying to get away with it and was mocking her on purpose.
She was so angry that her heart ached. She threw her sleeves away and turned away.
Eunuch Wan Ping said cheerfully, "Miss, please don't be angry. Everyone knows that you are the apple of General Huo's eye. Our emperor also likes you. If you don't go, his majesty will not eat. You don't have to care about what others say."
The Queen Mother and Prince Wei were naturally happy that General Huo was unwilling to marry into a noble family. However, they were also worried that Huo Xiao would be won over by other forces, and Prince Wei would then be isolated and helpless again.
This is just right now. Huo Xiao ignores the aristocratic families and the newly emerging Gou Xun faction. He is focused on supporting Prince Wei. Everyone is happy.
Ji Yunhuan knew what Prince Wei was waiting for, so he said, "I won the argument, I'm not angry, it's Hua Xi who is angry."
"Please wait for me for a moment, eunuch. I will go back to get my things and will go with you to see the King of Wei right away."
Ji Yunhuan returned to Qinghe Palace, where Eunuch Wanping was waiting outside the palace. Several palace maids came into the room and helped Ji Yunhuan change her clothes, then they left on their own accord.
Ji Yunhuan entered the inner room and saw the bronze mirror on the table. She moved her mind and sent over a large bag of things.
There was a signal when she got close to the bronze mirror, so she sent a message to Manager Xu in Lulinshan early in the morning, asking him to buy something and send it to the villa.
The bronze mirror was placed in the villa, and she also prepared some commonly used items in the living room, ready to be sent over at any time. Even if she didn't go back, the things could still be delivered.
Lulin Mountain is so big that it is not surprising that Manager Xu has not seen her for a few days unless they have a special appointment to meet. Besides, Manager Xu is a very sensible person and never asks questions that are not necessary.
Ji Yunhuan took out a power bank and some gifts prepared for King Wei, put them in a wooden box, and then went out.
Eunuch Wan Ping prepared a sedan chair, and Ji Yunhuan did not hesitate to get on it. With the palace maids and eunuchs following him, the group of people went to the palace where Prince Wei lived.
As soon as Ji Yunhuan entered the room, Prince Wei came forward and held Ji Yunhuan's hand, "Sister Ji, don't be so polite. I've been looking forward to your coming. I can enjoy my meal only when you accompany me."
"All of you please go down. Do not come in without my permission and do not disturb me while I am eating."
This was against the rules, but Prince Wei was now quite majestic, and his words in the court were powerful. All the disobedient people in the harem were cleared out, and the rest were loyal to Prince Wei, and they all left upon hearing his words.
However, there were still people guarding the corridor, and as long as King Wei gave the order, they could come in immediately.
Prince Wei couldn't wait any longer. "I can already smell the fragrance. I like yesterday's cake and bubble tea. What good things has sister prepared today?"
