Chapter 882: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Concubine 24
Ji Yunhuan has always known that resistance will only bring more harm. When she first entered the mansion, she did not feel that she was inferior to anyone else. It was not until she was beaten and bleeding, looked around in a daze, and had no one to rely on. Ji Changmao didn't even look at her. The bleak reality finally taught her to shut up and be tolerant.
Until she met an immortal, who helped her clear her grievances, took her out of the house to have fun, and gave her gold, silver and jewelry. But whenever she suffered any injustice, the immortal would get furious and shout that he wanted to fight back!
She really had had enough, so she let the immortal take over her body and swung the whip!
Ji Shiting was in pain, angry, jumping, and yelling, but she only felt extremely happy! How could one whip be enough? She had suffered so much injustice and beating over the years, she wished that Ji Shiting would be beaten to death!
She does not have the character of repaying evil with kindness, nor is she as gentle and kind as the immortals imagine. She is just forced by reality to give in step by step and pretend to be a white lotus that is untainted by the mud!
Her heart must be black. She wants to kill her father and relatives and wants all the Ji family members to die!
But now is not the right time, she is still too weak, and the only thing she can rely on is the title of Shen Shen's fiancée. The entire manor is full of Xu family servants, and Xu and her female relatives are drinking tea not far away. Since she can't win in one blow, she can only endure it.
Yun Ye was ready to fight for three hundred rounds, and he was determined to beat Ji Shiting until she screamed in pain and begged for mercy on her knees.
Ji Yunhuan took back control of her body and said innocently, "Sister, please be careful. I am just trying out the whip. If you hit yourself, I will feel guilty if I damage your pretty face."
"It's fine that you bully me in the mansion on weekdays, but today in front of so many people, sister, are you going to be so arrogant? Master Shen is here today. If he sees you acting like this, do you think he will still help Zhao Wenyuan?"
"Zhao Wenyuan only ranked seventh in the second class. Not everyone can enter the Hanlin Academy. If it is because of your fault that Mr. Zhao is expelled from the Hanlin Academy, I wonder if Mr. Zhao will still be willing to marry you."
Ji Shiting was not sure how Zhao Wenyuan entered the Hanlin Academy in his previous life, but in this life it was indeed thanks to Shen Shen's efforts. The Hanlin Academy was just a stepping stone for Zhao Wenyuan. It wouldn't be long before Zhao Wenyuan would be transferred to the Secretariat and serve as the Secretariat Sheren.
The Zhongshu Sheren was just a minor official, but he had the power to draft imperial edicts. Later, when the new emperor ascended the throne, he valued Zhao Wenyuan and transferred him to the Shangshu Province. He was soon promoted to Shangshu Ling, a powerful and glorious position. Ji Yunhuan also benefited from it and was granted the title of a first-rank lady!
Ji Shiting was still a little apprehensive. Apart from marrying Zhao Wenyuan and enjoying the honor of a first-rank imperial edict, she didn't want Zhao Wenyuan's path to be any different from that of his previous life. If something went wrong, Zhao Wenyuan would not be able to become the Minister of the Chancellery, and she would suffer a great loss!
Ji Shiting looked around and snorted coldly, "Just because you opened your mouth and touched it, you said I bullied you, and I bullied you. Who saw it?"
"It was obviously you who was so arrogant because you were going to marry into the Shen family and injured me. These servants were just eager to protect their master and stopped you. If they accidentally hurt you, it's your own fault! It's your fault no matter what!"
There were not only servants of the Xu family at the horse farm, but also some young girls who came to ride horses for fun. In the past, they all listened to Ji Shiting. After all, Ji Shiting's father held a higher official position, and it was not easy for them to offend Ji Shiting. When Ji Shiting bullied a little concubine, they just turned a blind eye.
But things are different now. Ji Yunhuan is about to marry into the Shen family. For daughters of minor officials like them, marrying into the Shen family means flying onto a tree and becoming a phoenix. They will also weigh the pros and cons in their minds, considering whether or not to speak for Ji Yunhuan.
A woman in red came riding a horse and swung the whip in the air, forcing back a servant who was approaching Ji Yunhuan.
She looked down at the two girls of the Ji family and said with great disdain, "Every time I meet you, nothing good will happen! If my mother hadn't stopped me, I wouldn't have been willing to go to your Ji family's banquet. You quarrel over the slightest thing and it's not fun at all!"
"I saw everything just now. You were the first to start. You even relied on your numbers to bully your sister. Tsk tsk tsk, you are so vicious!"
After scolding Ji Shiting, the woman in red turned to Ji Yunhuan and continued to scold, "You are also very boring. Every time you are like a quail, you don't say a word when you are bullied! Today you are tough for once, you have improved!"
With one person speaking out, others also started talking about it.
"We are not blind. It was clearly the second girl who started it first. This is not the first time she has bullied her sister."
"Hey~ Who made her a concubine's daughter? What concubine's daughter wouldn't be wronged and endure it? She also fought back, so let's call it even."
"Let's forgive others when we can. Shi Ting, don't take it too seriously. It's just a joke between sisters. If it gets out of hand, it won't be good for anyone. If the men see it, they'll even say we have no manners."
Ji Shiting held the whip tightly, her hands shaking with anger!
These people were clearly on Ji Yunhuan's side! They were just daughters of minor officials of the sixth or seventh rank, and they had always fawned on her like lapdogs before, but now they dared to go against her!
Someone came out to smooth things over, and said in a careful and flattering manner, "Second Miss is very open-minded. Don't bother with this kind of people! It's getting late. If we delay any longer, we won't be able to catch any good prey. Let's get on the horses quickly. I want to see Second Miss's superb horsemanship!"
Ji Shiting couldn't swallow this humiliation, and she had to whip him a few times to vent her anger.
Yingmei grabbed the young lady's whip regardless of the pain and whispered: "Young lady, don't forget the lady's instructions. Just be patient. A little impatience will ruin a big plan."
Ji Shiting whipped Yingmei twice, slightly relieved the anger in her heart, and said angrily: "You are meddling in other people's affairs. I don't believe that I can't deal with her today!"
It's just an engagement, but Ji Yunhuan has become so arrogant. If she really marries him, what will happen in the future!
Even if Zhao Wenyuan had a promising future, that was a matter for the future. Would she have to swallow her anger every time she saw Ji Yunhuan in the future? That would be more painful than killing her!
She had already discussed with her mother that Ji Yunhuan must not be allowed to marry Shen Shen. As long as she delayed a little, her mother would definitely be ready.
Ji Shiting climbed onto the horse and glared at Ji Yunhuan provocatively, "You swing the whip so skillfully, do you dare to compete with me in a horse race? If you win, I will not cause you any trouble in the future and will definitely respect you as my own sister."
Ji Yunhuan knew that this was a trap. Although she had learned how to ride a horse, she had only learned the basics and could barely run two laps.
To practice horse riding, one needs to go out often, have one's own horse, and have a large horse ranch. She doesn't have these conditions. If she doesn't have a book, she can find a way to copy it, but she can't conjure up a horse.
Ji Shiting just wanted to embarrass her, maybe even wanted her to fall off the horse and get hurt, but if she didn't go riding, it would not be safe to be alone.
Ji Yunhuan made a decision quickly, "Okay, I'll compete with you!"
