Ji Mingshuang was very tired.
He saw with his own eyes that Ji Mingyan fell twice at the hands of Wu Weian, while his own sister kept falling and never got up.
He really has the feeling that everyone else is drunk but he is sober.
He really felt that his brother-in-law had no good intentions and was just pretending! !
But no one believed him, no one!
However, Ji Mingshuang also wanted to go to the Wu family to check what was going on, so he agreed: "Okay."
-
The next day was a rare day of good weather.
The sun shines down, covering the camp. Although the wind is still cold, it makes people feel good.
Ji Yunxi changed into a neat dress and put on a warm cloak.
Her hairstyle was extremely simple, tied behind her back with only a white jade hairpin, giving her a dashing and heroic look.
As soon as she left the tent, Wu Weian, dressed in white, came over and called softly, "Yun Niang."
Ji Yunxi nodded at him and casually greeted him: "Are you feeling better?"
Wu Wei'an wanted to get closer to Ji Yunxi, but he didn't know what he remembered, so he subconsciously moved a little further away: "Much better, thank you, Yunniang."
Hearing the two people's sticky greetings, Feng Si, who was dressed in formal attire, rolled his eyes.
She really wanted to vomit. She had previously considered Ji Yunxi her rival. She was afraid that after she broke off her engagement with Yang Weitian, she would enter the palace and compete with her for the emperor's favor.
But in the end, she is willing to be sticky with a man who acts like a woman.
It was the first time that Feng Si truly realized that she was completely different from Ji Yunxi.
In this hunting trip, in addition to Feng Si, her brother Feng Wu also came from the Feng family.
To be fair, the young men and women of the Feng family are all good-looking, and Feng Wu is also a handsome man.
He bowed to Ji Yunxi and said, "Third Miss, my sister was wrong about what happened yesterday. I am here to apologize to you."
As he spoke, he glanced behind him.
In fact, Feng Si was not willing to apologize at all.
She was really mad yesterday. She didn't even attend the bonfire party and insisted on going back to Feng Mansion.
It was her brother who persuaded her not to bother with the Ji family. The Marquis of Qingyuan in the Ji family was a man devoted to Taoism, not interested in the court, and a Minister of Personnel was the best he could do.
Their father was now deeply loved by the Emperor and the Crown Prince, and his official rank could rise. If Feng Si entered the palace and was favored, she would likely sit in a position second only to the Emperor.
Moreover, her brother revealed to her this morning that her father had long disliked Ji Mingxi and was planning to bring him down.
Maybe in the next spring examination, Ji Mingxi will lose his position as the Minister of Personnel.
But her brother said that this method still requires her, Feng Si, to take action.
Thinking of this, Feng Si calmed down and bowed to Ji Yunxi gracefully: "Sister, I was wrong yesterday. I apologize to you and Master Wu."
Ji Yunxi had known Feng Si for a long time. Feng Si had always regarded her as an imaginary enemy and had never been kind to her.
Apologize? That's even more impossible.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Ji Yunxi saw everything and raised her eyebrows: "It's okay, let the past be the past."
Wu Weian stood behind Ji Yunxi and said obediently: "I will listen to Yunniang."
Now that the matter was settled, the group headed towards the entrance of the hunting ground.
On the way, more and more people gathered, and almost everyone was together.
Feng Si glanced around and suddenly raised his voice so that everyone could hear him: "By the way, sister, will Master Wu be participating in the imperial examination next year?"
Ji Yunxi glanced at Feng Si and lowered her eyes: "Yes."
Feng Si looked very interested. "Sister, how is Young Master Wu's schoolwork? Oh, I shouldn't ask that. The husband you've chosen must be very skilled in both civil and military affairs. Young Master Wu will definitely pass the imperial examination next spring, and will surely be appreciated by the Emperor during the palace examination and be awarded the title of Jinshi."
This is a blatant case of flattery.
Ji Yunxi saw it all, but didn't say anything. Instead, she said, "Sister, you're being too kind. There are only three candidates in the first class. I don't think An Lang can make it. But the Fifth Young Master has a chance. Young Master Wu is famous throughout Shangjing for his literary talent and knowledge."
The Spring Examination is only two months away, and the people of Shangjing City will naturally speculate who the three top winners will be, and even place their own bets in an attempt to make a fortune.
In everyone's speculation, Ji Mingshuang from the Ji family, Feng Wu from the Feng family, and Li San from the Li family are the most mentioned people.
Feng Wu smiled and said, "Third Miss, you are too kind. I am definitely not as good as Mr. Wu. Otherwise, when my father proposed to the Ji family, Third Miss would not have refused."
Hearing this, the onlookers couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts.
This is an old story. It is said that Feng Wu liked Ji San back then and asked his father to go to Ji's house to propose marriage early on, but was rejected.
Not long after that, Ji San and Yang Weitian became relatives.
It was also because of this incident that although the Ji and Feng families were both on the side of the prince, the Feng family had already developed a rift with the Ji family and was determined to surpass the Ji family and trample it under their feet.
In recent years, the Feng family has indeed been getting better and better, and is now in great glory, so no one mentions this matter, for fear of upsetting the Feng family.
Unexpectedly, Feng Wu said it so easily.
Feng Wu actually didn't feel relieved at all, as he had been paying attention to Ji Yunxi over the years.
If Ji Yunxi had chosen a better husband than him, perhaps he wouldn't feel so bad.
But why would she want such a useless man and not him?
Feng Wu was unwilling to accept this, and hatred and jealousy accumulated in his heart bit by bit.
You looked down on me yesterday, but tomorrow I will make you unable to reach me.
He wants his Feng family to get better and better, he wants to destroy the Ji family and destroy Ji Yunxi.
And the Spring Examination is the beginning.
As long as Wu Weian took part in the Spring Examination, he could bribe people to give Wu Weian a very good result, and then throw the dirty water on Ji Mingxi and the Ji family.
