Su Li told Abao that the road ahead was impassable, and then asked Xiaowu to take him to rest.
In the evening, after Ji Tinglan finished his work, the couple had dinner together, and Su Li told him about Abao.
Ji Tinglan couldn't help but shake his head and said, "Such a treacherous person as an official will eventually bring disaster to the people. Just go ahead and do Abao's business. I'm here, so don't worry..."
Su Li curled up the corners of her mouth and picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs for him...
At night, Lian Yong was just as they expected, busy dealing with road issues and had no time to take care of Lian Ji, so he asked her to stay at the post station first.
Meanwhile, inside Lian Ji's room, Asuo was extremely anxious. "Didn't they say Prince Ji would come to see you? What time is it now? Why is there still no movement? If it's any later and everyone is asleep, how could he come to see you?"
Lian Ji pretended to be calm on the surface, but she was actually a little unsure.
Of course, what she was waiting for was not the same as what Asuo was waiting for.
I don’t know if the Crown Prince’s wife understood her hint.
If not, she could only find a way to get Asuo away and go to her to explain. She didn't completely hope that the Crown Prince's wife would find the note. After all, such a hint was really obscure.
The two waited anxiously for a long time, until Asuo became impatient and asked Lian Ji to take the initiative to find Ji Tinglan, Xiao Wu came.
Asuo immediately went to open the door and saw that Xiaowu seemed a little disappointed. She remembered that the maid was called Xiao Ye and had always been with the prince's wife during the day. It was obvious that she was her personal maid.
Lian Ji was delighted. It seemed that the Crown Prince's wife had really understood her hint. However, she didn't know how she would get rid of Asuo.
Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Miss Lian Ji, our prince heard from Lord Lian that you are good at chess, so he wanted to invite you to play a game. I wonder if Miss Lian Ji is available?"
Asuo quickly said: "Of course it's convenient!"
But she felt very disdainful in her heart. It seemed that Prince Ji did not obey the words of the Prince's wife in everything as she saw today. Otherwise, why would he order the maidservant beside the Prince's wife to invite Lian Ji?
She said, how could a prince act according to a woman's mood?
It seems that he had already taken a fancy to Lian Ji during the day and wanted to bring her back to the post station, but for the sake of face, he couldn't ask for it himself, so he hinted to the Crown Prince's wife to agree.
Xiao Wu deliberately frowned, obviously dissatisfied with a maid making the decision on behalf of her master.
Asuo also realized that he was a little impatient and quickly turned around to look at Lian Ji.
Lian Ji stepped forward and said, "Since the Crown Prince has invited me, I will accept. Please lead the way, Miss Xiao Wu."
"Young lady, please."
Xiao Wu extended her hand and made a gesture of invitation. Just when Asuo wanted to follow, she stopped her and said in an ambiguous tone, "Miss Asuo, our young master doesn't like to be disturbed by too many people when he is playing chess. Please stay here, Miss Asuo. Miss Lianji will have one servant to serve her..."
Asuo was stunned, then he understood.
It turns out that Prince Ji had set his sights on Lian Ji from the very beginning, and he is still so anxious now.
What's the point of not wanting to be disturbed? It's obvious that he's afraid that she will ruin his fun.
However, this was exactly what she wanted. As long as Lian Ji and he were married tonight, Lian Ji, with her identity as the county magistrate's daughter, would be able to smoothly enter the Duke of Ji's Mansion and stay with Prince Ji, and the adult's goal would be achieved.
So she wouldn't stop it.
"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Xiaowu to take care of my daughter."
Xiao Wu nodded: "Miss Lian Ji, please."
After saying that, he left Asuo behind and the two of them headed towards Ji Tinglan's house.
Inside Ji Tinglan's house.
When Lian Ji entered, she saw Ji Tinglan and Su Li sitting side by side. She breathed a sigh of relief and bowed, "Lian Ji greets the prince, madam."
"Sit down."
Su Li looked at the seat in the lower left corner and motioned Lian Ji to sit down.
"Thank you, Madam."
After Lian Ji sat down, Su Li asked, "Did you write the words on the note?"
"yes."
Su Li asked directly: "What do you want to tell us? Or, what kind of deal do you want to make with us?"
Lian Ji didn't expect Su Li to guess her purpose. She stood up and knelt excitedly: "I dare not make a deal. Lian Ji only asks the wife of the prince to save Lian Ji's parents and brother and give our family freedom."
Ji Tinglan and Su Li were stunned.
According to their people's report in the afternoon, Lian Yong has only two sons, and the eldest one is the oldest. The rest are daughters. Lian Ji is his concubine's daughter. She only has an older brother, and there is no such thing as a younger brother.
How could Lian Ji tell such an obvious lie? Could there be something else going on?
The two looked at each other, and Su Li said, "As far as we know, you don't seem to have a younger brother."
Lian Ji was not surprised that they investigated the County Magistrate's Mansion so quickly. After all, the other party was the future owner of the Duke's Mansion, someone that Prince Ning would have to spend a lot of effort to deal with, so he should be cautious in everything he did.
"Lian Yong is not my father at all..."
Many years ago, Lian Yong fell in love with a beautiful couple of actors, abducted them and took the actor's wife as his concubine.
Of course, Lian Yong didn't like the actor's wife, but he was attracted to the actor and his wife's child.
At that time, the actor's wife was already three months pregnant and later gave birth to a pair of very beautiful twin daughters.
Lian Yong registered the twin daughters under his name, making them his concubines, and raised them up, and then gave them away in exchange for benefits...
Why didn't Lian Yong use his own daughter? He wanted to, but he was too ugly. Even though he had several beautiful concubines, none of his children were as good-looking as he wanted, especially his daughters, who could not bring him any benefits.
