In previous years, Yun Xi had not yet married, so she had always gone alone. This year, she had a husband, so naturally, she had to bring Wu Weian with her to the palace.
Wu Weian knew about this in advance, so when Ji Yunxi mentioned it, he agreed immediately.
On the day of Grain Full, Wu Weian left the Hanlin Academy early and returned home.
As soon as he stepped into the yard, he saw Baofu, the naughty servant, waiting for him.
As soon as he saw him, Baofu walked over with a very blessed face and handed over the clothes in his hand: "Please change quickly, sir, and don't keep the young lady waiting too long."
After saying that, she raised her head, twisted her waist and left.
Just like the big white geese raised by farmers in the village, they are very fierce.
Wu Weian held the clothes that were obviously men's and touched them subconsciously.
Of course, this fabric is not as good as his groom's suit, but it is also the best material. It is the best clothes he owns besides his groom's suit.
Therefore, Wu Weian did not bother with the naughty slave. He went to the side room to change his clothes before going to the bedroom.
Ji Yunxi was almost dressed up. She sat in front of the dressing mirror and adjusted her hair bun, then she saw Wu Weian appear in the mirror.
His clothing was always plain, but this time it was different. It was indigo and white, with an intricate landscape pattern embroidered on it. The shoulders and waist were perfectly tailored, highlighting his handsome figure and making him look striking.
Ji Yunxi looked at him a few more times and praised: "Your outfit is nice."
Wu Wei'an smiled faintly: "I have to thank Yunniang for having someone prepare clothes for me."
Ji Yunxi stood up from in front of the mirror and said, "It's not me."
Wu Wei'an: “?”
Seeing his confusion, Ji Yunxi explained, "I've entrusted all the food, clothing, housing and transportation at home to Baofu."
After all, Ji Yunxi likes to take care of business, and she doesn't like to take care of the daily necessities of the family, such as food, clothing, housing, transportation, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea.
She has two maids, Wanxiang, who is responsible for her safety, and Baofu is responsible for everything else.
Including her gorgeous and beautiful clothes, and naturally including Wu Weian's.
Wu Weian raised his eyebrows slightly and gave an answer that he himself didn't believe: "So, your maid really treats me as her son-in-law?"
Ji Yunxi shrugged lightly: "If you think it is, then it is."
Wu Wei'an smiled: "Then I think so."
Ji Yunxi nodded: "Yes."
Of course, this is impossible.
Based on Ji Yunxi's understanding of Baofu, Baofu specially prepared these clothes for Wu Weian because he was afraid that he would not be dressed well enough when entering the palace with her, which would embarrass her.
But sometimes, the truth doesn't need to be spoken.
-
At the banquet, Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian sat in an inconspicuous corner.
Ji Yunxi only acts high-profile when it is necessary. In occasions like this where the emperor and empress are present, she usually acts as low-key as possible.
In such occasions, Wu Weian was even more low-key. He just sat obediently next to Ji Yunxi and was very well behaved.
But he would occasionally look up inadvertently.
Because Feng Wu also came, he kept looking at him and Ji Yunxi during the meal, his eyes full of resentment.
My uncle's escort company was constantly being robbed, and they were unable to make a living a few days ago, so they had to close down.
The Feng family completely lost their profitable business and these days were extremely difficult.
They have always been used to being rich, how can they bear to be without money?
The family even thought about selling the jewelry, but all the pawnshops in the capital were in the hands of the Ji family.
Feng Wu can't afford to lose face like this!
Moreover, although Feng Wu had always wanted to harm the Ji family and Ji Yunxi, whenever he saw Ji Yunxi, he could not help but be attracted by her appearance.
Ji Yunxi had simply grown in his heart; he had never forgotten her since he first saw her four years ago.
The reason why Feng Wu wanted to make the Ji family decline was because he wanted to use this opportunity to take Ji Yunxi into his backyard and make Ji Yunxi his concubine!
But now, the beauty is right in front of him, and sitting next to her is a man whom he can never like.
Feng Wu felt uncomfortable, angry and resentful.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Wu Weian became more and more vicious.
Concubine Feng was also present.
Almost all the concubines in the harem were present at this dinner.
Concubine Feng also learned from her mother what had happened at home recently.
She followed her brother's gaze and saw Ji Yunxi, her eyes darkened.
Concubine Feng thought for a moment, whispered something to the maid, then stood up with the maid and went straight to Ji Yunxi's table.
Concubine Feng chuckled: "Madam Wu, long time no see."
There is a difference between high and low.
Ji Yunxi and Wu Weian stood up to greet him.
Ji Yunxi's eyes remained still: "Greetings to the noble lady."
Concubine Feng looked at Ji Yunxi. She performed the ceremony very well and properly, and there was no fault to be found.
Logically, she should be happy to see Ji Yunxi salute her.
But even though the other person was hunched over and half a head shorter than her, Concubine Feng still felt unhappy.
Because there was no humiliation on Ji Yunxi's face, she was as calm as ever.
Concubine Feng has not had a good time in the harem recently. The emperor rarely calls on her now, and instead likes to go to another beauty who entered the palace at the same time as her.
That beauty is now pregnant!
Concubine Feng did not dare to let Ji Yunxi perform the ceremony for too long, for fear that the beauty would gossip about her in front of the emperor.
She took a glass of wine from the maid, and then asked the maid to pass one to Ji Yunxi.
As a result, before Ji Yunxi took it, the maid let go.
Wu Weian seemed to be frightened and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
The wine spilled all over Ji Yunxi, but it didn't go too far, just stopping a little distance from the toe of Wu Weian's shoe.
Wu Weian's shoes today are also new, made of high-quality material, and very comfortable to wear.
Ji Yunxi didn't try to avoid it at all and just watched the wine spill all over herself.
Because this was so cliché, she foresaw what would happen when she heard Feng Si ask the maid to pass the wine.
