197. Chapter 197: Beating People Up



Du Jingyi was not afraid of being laughed at, so he stretched, got up and got off the couch.

After Cherry helped her put on her shoes, she picked up the medicine bowl and left.

Normally, when Shang Ji was around, she would not stay in the room to serve him, and Shang Ji was very satisfied with her performance.

One reason is that he doesn't like maids who like to show off, and he always feels that they have evil intentions.

Secondly, he didn't like having someone standing next to him when he was talking to his wife, as he always felt like someone was spying on him.

Therefore, Yingtao's understanding of the rules made Shang Ji feel that this maid was very knowledgeable about the rules.

After getting off the couch, the couple sat under the bright window.

There were also a few leisure books and calligraphy practice papers on the small rosewood table, which the couple used to pass the time.

There happened to be a word "茫" (falsehood) written on the note, which immediately reminded Du Jingyi of the note sent by the Wei family.

So he opened his mouth and spoke.

"General, we have accepted the invitation from the Wei family, but are we going or not?"

The general's mansion did not send invitations to the Wei family for the housewarming party. This was known to everyone in Sui'an City.

By doing this, the Wei family has truly humiliated the General's Mansion.

It seems that they are magnanimous and don't hold grudges, and they are good at building a memorial arch for themselves.

Unfortunately, Shang Ji never bought into this, so he just said it calmly.

"Let Xing Zhao and Ping'er take the things and go there. What are we going to do? They're not going to perform for us anyway."

He never showed mercy when speaking, especially when facing the Wei family and the Duke's Mansion.

Therefore, Du Jingyi had a general idea of ​​what he meant by singing opera.

The Wei family's thoughts are obvious.

Wei Jialian's coming-of-age ceremony was held in a grand manner with many guests, and the purpose was to find a good family for her.

And these so-called good families are ninety-nine percent likely to be from the royal family.

Considering Wei Jialian's identity and her current reputation in Sui'an City, Du Jingyi felt that everything else was fine, except that it would be best not to target the prince.

Otherwise, if the Wei family really became the prince's helper, they would inevitably disgust each other in the future.

"General, aren't you afraid that the Wei family will turn their attention to the Crown Prince?"

Speaking of which, the prince is now about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. Although he is a little old, for Wei Jialian, he is a good match.

She may be a concubine now, but as the prince's concubine, she may have the opportunity to strive for the position of consort or even noble consort in the future.

Therefore, Du Jingyi had reason to believe that the Wei family was willing to do so.

After all, wasn’t it in this way that Aunt Shang, who was of the Wei family’s bloodline, climbed to the position of Princess Fu?

As the cousin of Princess Fu, I'm afraid Wei Jialian's mind is not simple.

Unexpectedly, Shang Ji smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm.

"With Prime Minister Guo here, this is absolutely impossible."

"What do you mean?"

"The people of the Wei family have ulterior motives. Prime Minister Guo once had a big fight with General Wei."

Du Jingyi raised her eyebrows. She had never heard of this before, so she looked at Shang Ji with interest, wanting to hear the whole story.

Shang Ji saw her gossipy expression and chuckled before speaking.

"As a husband, I know that you are curious, but you should control your expression, so that your children won't be as gossipy as you in the future."

"I just don't believe it. Isn't this news something the general got from gossip?"

Du Jingyi hit the nail on the head.

Indeed, given Shang Ji's age, he naturally would not have experienced the confrontation between Prime Minister Guo and General Wei.

Therefore, these old stories must have come from an elder in the Gu family.

So, Shang Ji gently scratched the tip of her nose and couldn't help but said lovingly.

"You're just smart."

"My third uncle told me this. Several cousins ​​were there at the time. He said that one time when he was delivering something to Madam Guo on behalf of my grandmother, he accidentally saw Prime Minister Guo and General Wei fighting at home."

"Although Prime Minister Guo is a leader in the civil service, he is not weak in body. If a fight really breaks out, I am afraid that three or two people will not be able to stop him. Naturally, Wei Taiwei will be beaten up with a swollen nose and a swollen face."

"Ah? Why?"

"I don't know about that. My third uncle didn't say anything. But I guess it must be that Wei Taiwei was reckless and came up with some bad ideas that made Prime Minister Guo extremely angry, so they fought."

Prime Minister Guo? Extremely angry? Fighting? Du Jingyi couldn't imagine the scene in his mind at once.

After all, Prime Minister Guo has an immortal-like appearance and looks gentle and elegant.

Du Jingyi always thought that he was good at debate with all the civil and military officials in the court, but he was unexpectedly good at hitting people and leaving them with black and blue faces.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Thinking of this, Du Jingyi couldn't help but smile.

"What a pity! If only I were here, I would have watched how that Wei Taiwei would be humiliated."

When Shang Ji heard her words, he also said with a smile in his eyes.

"Madam, I also told my third uncle what you said that day. Do you know how he responded to me?"

"How did you reply?"

"My third uncle said that I am just dreaming."

Du Jingyi didn't know how to answer for a moment. These soldiers were really...

It's amazing how casual you are.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Du Jingyi chuckled awkwardly and changed the topic.

"Since the path of the crown prince is not feasible, who will the Wei family target? The fourth prince? Or the seventh prince?"

"Not necessarily. Aren't there still several princes and sons?"

Hearing her husband say this, Du Jingyi kept thinking of candidates in her mind.

Judging from the housewarming party that day, both Prince De and Prince Yin were good in her eyes.

There is also Master Jiu, the son of Min Wang's concubine Pang, who also looks like a handsome man.

She was not very clear about the reputation of the three people among the people, but judging from their behavior that day, she was still quite impressed by them.

Especially Prince Yin, in her opinion, was the most handsome person among the people who came that day.

He did not fight or compete, and was neither hurried nor slow. Although he did not say much, he stood tall like a green pine or cypress. He stood behind King Yin and occasionally revealed a gentle smile.

Such a man will surely treat his wife well no matter who he marries.

Therefore, for a moment, she thought that it would be a good idea for Xue Niang to marry this man.

Shang Ji obviously had no interest in who Wei Jialian would choose as her husband, so he didn't try to guess.

Anyway, the royal family is not stupid. Choosing the Wei family means facing the prince and the Guo family head-on.

No one is tired of living so much that he or she has to create trouble for himself or herself.

Therefore, the ones who will have a headache about this matter will not be them, but the Wei family and those families that the Wei family wants to show goodwill to.

Du Jingyi also deeply agreed with this matter, so he didn't ask any more questions.
