Chapter 896: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 38
Ji Shiting's legs had not fully recovered yet, so she came here in a sedan chair. Yingmei helped her get off the sedan chair and she stood in the yard showing off her power.
"Search carefully for me! That bracelet is worth a fortune. It must have been stolen by someone with short eyes. If you can't find the bracelet today, I will skin you alive!"
The servants had long been accustomed to the fact that the second young lady would cause trouble for the eldest young lady from time to time, and false accusations of theft were commonplace. They rummaged through the yard with a lot of noise, and even the betrothal gifts were opened.
A box of pearls was neatly stacked together, and had not yet been made into head jewelry, which showed that it was prepared in a hurry. However, all the items were very valuable, and none of them was cheap.
The Duke's Mansion was wealthy, so even if the marriage was hasty, the things they moved in were real.
The more Ji Shiting looked, the more jealous she became!
In the last century, Yun Huan was engaged to Zhao Wenyuan at an early stage, and the Duke's Mansion had taken a liking to her. When the nanny beside Madam Dong came to deliver the betrothal gift, it was not such a grand ceremony. Compared with ordinary families, it was naturally generous, but far from being as extravagant as this!
One hundred and eight loads. Why is Ji Yunhuan, a woman who has lost her virginity, so favored by the Duke's Mansion?
Hanchun was terrified when she saw the Second Miss's murderous expression, but she still protected the betrothal gifts and said tremblingly, "These are all sent by the Duke's Mansion. You can take a look at them, but if anything is missing, the Duke's Mansion will not let you go!"
The servants were very envious, but they did not dare to touch the betrothal gifts. The amount of the betrothal gifts was limited, and if the Duke's Mansion investigated, they would not be able to bear the responsibility.
Yingxia bowed to the Second Young Miss and said loudly, "What bracelet did the Second Young Miss lose? There are only a few people in this courtyard, and they all just arrived today. How did they find us here? Why don't you look for it somewhere else?"
Ji Shiting was filled with rage and raised her hand to hit Hanchun in the face.
Ji Yunhuan pulled Hanchun and protected her behind him, saying coldly: "Second sister, you are so arrogant! I have so much gold and jade here, how can you be interested in a broken bracelet? Haven't you taken enough things from me over the years? If you want a betrothal gift, just say so directly, and there is no need to bring up the theft."
"The Zhao family is poor, and the betrothal gifts are only ten loads. I can hardly store them all here. It's okay to give you some, but I'm afraid the Duke's Mansion won't agree. I don't have anything to be reluctant about."
These words hit Ji Shiting right in the heart!
She just couldn't bear to see Ji Yunhuan living a better life than her. After living her life over again, she hated Ji Yunhuan even more and wanted to kill her with a knife!
She felt that it was not enough to rob Ji Yunhuan of her things, frame Ji Yunhuan for pushing her into trouble, and even ruin Ji Yunhuan's reputation. Only when Ji Yunhuan died could she feel at ease and live a life of wealth and glory.
"It's just a betrothal proposal. What are you so proud of? The Shen family also offered a betrothal proposal, but they still broke off the engagement in the end!"
"Your personal maid, the one called Mi Xue, was locked up yesterday because she stole my bracelet. You protected her and hid her in the house. Hand her over now. This dirty girl should be killed as soon as possible!"
The servants had searched all the other rooms, except the eldest lady's boudoir.
Ji Yunhuan blocked the door and said sternly, "I'll see who dares! As long as I'm alive, don't even think about touching Mi Xue again. I'll be the Crown Prince's Consort soon. Think about it. If something happens to me and the Duke's Mansion investigates, how will you explain it?"
Ji Shiting laughed loudly, "You idiot! Do you really think marrying Yun Ye, that playboy, is a good thing? It's just a glitz for now, but you'll cry later!"
"Yun Ye has been in a coma for two months, waiting to find someone with a compatible fate to bring him good luck. My fate is the most suitable, but I chose Brother Wen Yuan, so they could only settle for the second best and choose a concubine like you!"
"If you were to marry him, the prince would definitely not wake up! Even if he did, it would be useless. The prince has prostitutes outside, and his childhood sweetheart is eyeing you covetously. You can't possibly get the prince's favor. The prince has a violent temper. He hates your humble background and will definitely beat you!"
"You are just an empty figure as the Crown Prince's Consort. Others may be intimidated by you, but I am not afraid of you! I am already giving you face by only killing you, a maid. If you stop me, I will kill you too!"
The more Ji Yunhuan listened, the more he felt that Ji Shiting had also had an adventure, and perhaps could predict the future.
She now knows that the Duke's Mansion had sent people to meet Ji Shiting, but Ji Shiting was still determined to marry Zhao Wenyuan. In the future that Ji Shiting foresaw, Zhao Wenyuan would become a high-ranking official, and the Duke's Mansion would definitely decline.
Let's make a bold guess. She married Zhao Wenyuan, who for some reason became a high-ranking official, and she was also granted an imperial edict. Ji Shiting married the prince, but was not favored by him and did not have a good end!
Now everything makes sense. Ji Shiting thought that by snatching the Zhao family's marriage, she would be honored in the future. However, things in the world are not so simple. One move can affect the whole body. Even if the marriage is changed, the fate cannot be changed.
Ji Shiting probably didn't know that there was an immortal following her. If she knew, she would definitely not have said what she said today.
Even though she had received help from immortals, she did not dare to say that her life would be smooth sailing. Ji Shiting was very courageous and dared to gamble her whole life based on a prophecy whose truth or falsehood she did not know.
Zhao Wenyuan is definitely not a good match. He is vicious and cruel. He did not hesitate to kill his own children in order to climb up to the Ji family. Such a person is heartless and will do anything for profit. When Ji Shiting is no longer useful, Zhao Wenyuan will definitely take back all the humiliations he has suffered.
Ji Yunhuan was silent and thoughtful. Yun Ye thought she believed Ji Shiting's nonsense and explained eagerly.
[Don't listen to her nonsense! It's all just rumors from outside. The prince is not cruel at all. He only beats up bad guys. You are a little girl, delicate and weak. She will definitely not beat you.]
[The prince said he wants to marry you himself. He will never look down on you because of your humble background. If he marries you, he will definitely treat you well.]
[Although Yun Ye is unconscious now, he will definitely wake up when you marry him. He will support you in the future. You don’t have to worry about this kind of clown. You must marry him and don’t be fooled by her! She just can’t bear to see you do well!]
[Huan'er knows everything. The one chosen by the immortal is naturally the best. Although I have never seen the prince, he must be the best man in the world. I don't believe in the rumors outside. I only believe in the immortal.]
The immortal was completely coaxed into submission, circling around Ji Yunhuan, extremely happy.
Ji Yunhuan asked sincerely, "Since you know that I won't have a good life if I marry there, why are you still jealous? Let me suffer if I marry there. If you go to the Zhao family, you will definitely enjoy a good life."
Ji Shiting just felt that Ji Yun was unworthy! She was not worthy of marrying Shen Shen, let alone being the Crown Prince's Consort. Even if she married and enjoyed a day of glory, she couldn't bear it!
She directly called the guards in the mansion, her eyes flashing with murderous intent.
"You are such a jerk. I don't want to waste any more words with you. Just catch this bitch and throw her into the well. Tell everyone that the young lady lost her virginity and jumped into the well because she was so upset!"
