Chapter 351 Ji Family
Ji Mansion.
"Dad, have you made a decision?"
There was obvious anger on Ji Minzhi's young face. Even though his father was a prime minister of the first rank, he still gritted his teeth and questioned unwillingly.
"My mother is also your legal wife, I am also your legitimate son, and my sister is your only legitimate daughter. And my half brothers and half sisters are also your flesh and blood. Even if all of us are added together, are we still not as good as Ji Yunzhi in your heart?"
Ji Xun flipped through the book in his hand casually, and he didn't even look up at his angry second son.
"As a father, I have my reasons. Do I need to explain the whole story to you?"
"My son doesn't dare!"
Ji Minzhi bowed respectfully. No matter how angry he was, it would not disrupt his composure as the eldest son of the prime minister's family.
"I'm just worried about the Ji family. What exactly is Ji Yunzhi trying to do now? He knows that the Emperor and Empress have a grudge against him, but instead of keeping quiet, he repeatedly jumps in front of the Jiang family. Does he really think that the Empress has cultivated her character to such a virtuous level that she wouldn't dare to attack him again?"
"Ji Minzhi, be careful with your words!"
Ji Xun put down the book in his hand with an unhappy look on his face, frowned and looked at his second son who was always inferior to him in scheming and tactics, his voice full of fatherly majesty.
"That's your eldest brother!"
"Oh, you always remember that he is my biological elder brother, but does he still remember me, his half-brother?"
Ji Minzhi sneered coldly.
"Back then, when he went to bet on the eldest sister of the Jiang family, who had already been granted a marriage, it could be said that he was young and foolish. But how old is he now? What was his intention in betting on Sister Han again and again recently? Dad, please don't tell me you don't know!"
"So, second brother, this is why you will always be one step behind your big brother.
I know what he's thinking, and I know what you're thinking, too. But he dares to act on it, so why don't you?
If you don't dare, why are you still complaining indignantly to your father? "
Ji Xun's tone was actually filled with a kind of bewitching tone, and it didn't sound like he was joking.
"He had set his eyes on the eldest daughter of the Jiang family since he was little, and he dared to reach out and fight for her. If he gets her, it's a blessing, if he loses, it's his fate. At least he reached out and fought for her.
But what about you?
Ji Minzhi, tell me, you've been obsessed with following the second daughter of the Jiang family since you were little, but have you ever dared to reach out to her once? "
"I…"
"You don't dare, right?
As a father, I even dare to conclude that you have never revealed any of your feelings in front of the second daughter of the Jiang family.
So you see, because of your cowardly behavior, it is destined that Jiang Han will never be yours.
There is no woman in this world who would fall in love with a coward!"
"No, I don't want to embarrass her..."
"It's just a sophistry."
Ji Xun had no intention of comforting his second son for the embarrassment of being poked on the face. He only heard a cold snort of disdain.
"You must know that any good thing in this world requires a thousand plans and calculations. How can there be so many pie falling from the sky and hitting you on the head?
At that time, the son of the Guo family also liked the second daughter of the Jiang family. How could he dare to express his feelings? Why wasn't he afraid of causing trouble to the girl he liked?
The current fifth son of the Li family was not as successful as you in winning the favor of the second daughter of the Jiang family. Then why was he able to get the right time, place and people together and successfully win the beauty?
To put it bluntly, it’s just one word: gambling! "
Looking at his son's pale face, the father felt no pity at all and continued to poke his heart.
"Don't make excuses for your cowardice; you just don't dare to gamble.
You're afraid that you'll go all out and bet on the wrong thing, and that in the end you won't even have a place in that hypocritical friend's seat. Is that why?
Tsk, you really don't look like your father's biological child. I, Ji, have only one way in my life: seize any possible opportunity and risk everything on a gamble!
The worst that can happen is death. As long as I survive, I will always have a chance to rise. That’s why we have the current Ji Xiang, and that’s why there will be a line of the Ji family that respects me as the Grandfather in the future!”
The father's eyes are full of ambition, but the son is a lazy boy who can't stand any encouragement.
"Yes, I'm not as good at calculating people's hearts as you are. Ji Yunzhi is the one who has inherited your true teachings in this regard. He truly deserves to be your eldest son!"
Ji Minzhi had a sneer on his face, similar to his father's. Even a child should have dignity, no matter how humiliated he was. After being slapped across the face by his own father in such a rude way, he finally broke down in embarrassment and said whatever he wanted.
"You are so brave and good at betting, but have you ever made the right bet?
After all the scheming and working hard for so many years, my family's assets have gone from just a few cents at the beginning to nothing now!
If you continue to plot like this, I guess this will be recorded in history books in the future.
When Dayu was founded, there was a prime minister named Ji Gong.
He is good at planning and likes gambling.
However, he was born at the wrong time and had no good fortune. He repeatedly failed in his attempts to follow the dragon, causing his family to fall into poverty and he spent half his life wandering. In the end..."
"Get out of here!!!"
Very good, the father’s defense was finally broken.
Prime Minister Ji picked up the book in his hand and threw the unfilial son out of the study. Then he sat back at his desk, closed his eyes, and tried to comfort himself for a long time.
"Huh~ I am a man of great wisdom and understanding, how can I argue with that ignorant child?
Everything in this world is man's plan, God's disposition. No matter how skilled a chess player is, he still needs a breakable game to win. It's not that I'm incompetent, I just lack a bit of luck.
I remember that in the past, I too was able to plan and strategize, winning victories from afar. I too was able to wield a feather fan and write documents, destroying ships and sails in a moment of laughter and conversation. I will not argue with ignorant children. I, I...
I’m going to beat Ji Minzhi to death!!!”
After irritating his father, Ji Minzhi covered the back of his head, which was hurt by the blow, and walked towards his yard with a unhappy look on his face. As soon as he passed the gate, he ran into a graceful man in a white robe, who was fanning himself and walking towards him.
"Second brother, I heard that you angered father again?"
"Oh, heard? Where did you hear that? How come I didn't know that your zodiac sign had changed, Ji Yunzhi? Your ears are as long as the wind. I guess even the donkey raised by Sister Han doesn't have as good ears as you!"
Ji Yunzhi kept smiling, and did not get angry even when the other party insulted him. He even stopped the guard who wanted to draw his sword to protect his master, and then shook his head at Ji Minzhi with a look of doting and helplessness.
"Second brother, you're not young anymore, why are you still so outspoken? You should know when to stop teasing your elder brother. After all, you and I are from the same father. If I'm truly an animal, then what are you?"
