Ren Yaoqi was not surprised to hear this.
Now that Prince Xian's Mansion had a chance to make a comeback, naturally, some people wanted to form an alliance with it. Although Li Tianyou was not young anymore, he was the only son of Prince Xian and Rong, and he had never been married.
The Yanbei Palace has already stated that it will not have any chance for the Palace to interact with the various aristocratic families, so even if it means marrying an unfavored concubine's daughter or a daughter from a side branch to Li Tianyou to wait and see, it will be beneficial and harmless.
Ren Yaoqi thought Rong wanted to tell her about the candidate for Li Tianyou's wife so that she could tell Li about it and let Li take a look at it. So she asked, "Which lady has your grandmother chosen?"
Unexpectedly, Rong shook her head and said, "Your uncle's engagement has been decided long ago."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he heard this: "But I heard..." Ren Yaoqi paused.
She knew that Li Tianyou had been engaged when he was young, and she also knew that this marriage was arranged when the late emperor was still alive and Concubine Wan was still the most favored concubine in the harem. The girl's background was naturally extraordinary. It was said that she was the eldest granddaughter of Ji Nan, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion and the chief minister of the cabinet for three dynasties.
Unfortunately, not long after Concubine Wan fell from power, the Ji family, like Rong's family, was implicated by Concubine Wan and Prince Xian, and the entire family was convicted. Li Tianyou's fiancée, the eldest daughter of the Ji family, unwilling to be abused as a slave to the government, hanged herself.
Seeing Ren Yaoqi's hesitant expression, Rong knew she had also heard this story. She nodded and sighed, "What a pity for Fuyun. If you had met her, you would have liked her, and everyone who has met her likes her. Your mother was very close to her when she was young."
Seeing Rong was sad, Ren Yaoqi hurriedly spoke to comfort her.
Rong shook her head and said, "It's okay. I just think it's a pity. The Ji family was just innocently dragged into this. I mentioned this matter to you because I want to say that since we have already decided on a daughter-in-law from the Ji family, we will marry the Ji family's daughter."
Ren Yaoqi was a little surprised. Could it be that Ji Fuyun hadn't died that year and was still alive? But looking at Rong's expression of pity for her, it didn't seem like that.
Rong raised her voice and called out, "Is Yihong outside? Come in."
Not long after Rong Shi finished speaking, Yihong came in, lifting the curtain, bowing her head and saying, "Madam, I am here."
Rong waved at her and said with a smile, "There's no outsider here. There's no need to be so polite. Come here."
Yihong glanced at Ren Yaoqi, then obediently walked in front of Rong.
Rong took her hand and sat down on the kang. Yihong no longer refused and sat up straight.
Rong said to Ren Yaoqi, "For now, you can just call me Aunt Ji."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned. She had heard Min Wenqing call Yihong Ji last time. But she had never thought that she would be the daughter of the Ji family, a family that had been a part of three dynasties.
Although she was a little surprised, Ren Yaoqi immediately called out, "Aunt Ji."
Yihong smiled and nodded at Ren Yaoqi, showing an exceptionally gentle and dignified temperament.
