Could it be because of the Crown Prince of the Western Jin Dynasty?
Thinking of this, Jun Linyu was both angry and furious. His woman was infatuated with the crown prince of another country, and now she had gone mad because of him!
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly. How could he not guess Consort Liang's intentions? Now that Ji Jiuying was no longer someone anyone could control, Jun Linyu would marry her as long as Ji Fengyan was alive.
"I am naturally willing."
Ji Chenyuan knew that given Yan'er's current situation, if she wanted to remarry, she could never compare to the Third Prince's concubine.
Moreover, the emperor would not allow it.
"Your Majesty, Consort Liang, Third Prince, Yan'er... she is now pregnant with the Third Prince's child."
Ji Chenyuan said calmly.
"What? How is this possible!" The Third Prince immediately stood up. She got pregnant after just one time?
It took Consort Liang and the Emperor quite a while to process the news.
"Third son, do you not know what you're doing?" the emperor said sternly.
"Father, I..."
"In that case, Ji Fengyan will marry into the Third Prince's residence in three days."
The Emperor and Jun Bufan immediately issued an order.
"Your Majesty, since Ji Fengyan has gone mad and there's no one to manage the household after she marries into the Third Prince's residence, why not let Bingyan also marry into the Third Prince's residence?"
Consort Liang stared intently at the Emperor, a charming smile unconsciously playing on her lips, and spoke in a coquettish tone.
"Granted, as Consort Liang has said," the Emperor said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Consort Liang smiled at Jun Linyu.
Ji Chenyuan returned to the Ji family with the imperial edict, while Jun Linyu went to the Grand Tutor's house with the imperial edict.
When Jun Linfeng heard the news, he swung his fist and slammed it against the wall, not even noticing that his knuckles were stained red.
Ji Jiuying and Qingling walked on the bustling street.
These past two days, because of Ji Fengyan's matter, no one has come to Qinglan Courtyard to disturb them, and they are happy to have some peace and quiet.
"Miss, when are we going back to the Princess's Mansion?" Qingling looked around.
“Soon,” Ji Jiuying replied.
"Qingling, we're being followed. You go back to the winery first, and we'll meet up there later." Sensing an unfamiliar aura approaching, Ji Jiuying became alert; this aura was very similar to that of the old man.
"No, Miss..."
"Don't worry, I can handle it, and Yingyue is lurking in the shadows." Ji Jiuying interrupted her, then immediately walked in another direction on the street.
Given the old man's strength, he must have deliberately revealed it to her so she could notice. She wanted to see who he was and whether his purpose was the same as the old man's.
Ji Jiuying strolled leisurely down the street, the other person maintaining a distance that was neither too close nor too far from her.
Ji Jiuying walked through several small streets and arrived at the west gate of the city. After exiting the city gate, she came to a deserted forest. She wanted to see what the other party wanted to do.
"If you don't show yourself now, how much longer will you follow me?" Ji Jiuying's voice wasn't loud, but it carried far in the quiet forest.
A middle-aged man, around forty years old, appeared in front of Ji Jiuying.
The man was handsome and dignified, dressed in a luxurious light blue brocade robe, which made him appear even more noble.
Ji Jiuying couldn't sense any murderous intent from the man. She looked him over and found that he gave her a strange sense of familiarity, but she couldn't figure out where that familiarity came from. She knew very well that she had never seen this person before.
Similarly, the man was also looking her over. She looked like her for a moment, but now she was blurry and didn't look like her anymore.
But he knew that the compass would not be wrong.
Do you know Feng Lan?
When Ji Jiuying heard this, she was absolutely certain that this man was from a higher plane, and she immediately became vigilant.
"I don't know him. If you have nothing else, I'll take my leave!" Ji Jiuying said, turning to leave. Although the man didn't seem to have any murderous intent, who knew if he was just pretending?
“Girl, the wariness in your eyes has already betrayed you.”
“The Feng Lan I’m referring to is your mother, Miss Ji Jiuying,” the man said again.
"Hehehe, it seems you've put a lot of effort into me," Ji Jiuying said calmly, but her eyes still held a wary look.
Seeing her wary expression, the man thought more highly of her. "Girl, my name is Feng Che, and I am the second brother of your mother, Feng Lan. If Xiao Jiu is willing, you can call me Second Uncle."
Feng Che spoke, his words devoid of any malice.
But ever since she learned about the absurd things the Feng family had done, Ji Jiuying had come to loathe them to the extreme.
"I'm sorry, I don't want to!"
"Why?" Feng Che asked.
"Why should I believe you?" Ji Jiuying retorted.
"Don't you want to know everything about your mother?" Feng Che had investigated the Ji family, including the disappearance of Feng Lan after giving birth to Ji Jiuying.
"Hehehe, everything about my mother? Are you talking about her being the Holy Maiden of your Feng family, or about how she would be imprisoned in the tomb forever if she didn't escape?" Ji Jiuying said sarcastically.
Feng Che was shocked for a moment upon hearing this. How did she know? Logically speaking, she shouldn't know these things. It seems that this lower continent is not simple!
"You Feng family know perfectly well what you want from me."
Feng Che was surprised; it seemed she knew quite a lot. He said helplessly, "The Feng family does indeed have what you described, but I can't change it. All I can do now is protect my little sister's daughter, which is you."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying did not believe what he said. She was just very puzzled. She was wearing the veil given to her by Gong Mingyue. How did he recognize her?
"I'm really curious, how did you recognize me?"
Feng Che took out a compass, which flashed red light and pointed towards Ji Jiuying.
Ji Jiuying suddenly realized that this was the bloodline detection device that Gong Mingyue had mentioned before, unique to each family.
Thinking of something, her expression suddenly turned serious. Those who were looking for her probably all carried compasses, and if she encountered them, the consequences would be unimaginable. As for this Feng Che, she didn't know whether he was good or bad.
Feng Che guessed what she was thinking and said, "Each of the five siblings in our Feng family has a jade pendant that can be worn close to the body. Your mother should have given it to you."
Ji Jiuying was puzzled. A jade pendant? She didn't remember any jade pendant in the original owner's memories! Nor had she heard Ji Chenyuan mention it.
It seems Ji Chenyuan has been hiding a lot from her. She should have searched his soul directly that day.
How can you be so sure that my mother would leave the jade pendant for me?
"Logically speaking, you should have been detected by the Feng family's tracing array when you were born, but you weren't. It must be that my younger sister placed the jade pendant on you and then added a seal to your body."
Some time ago, the seal on you was broken, causing the Feng family's tracking array to tremble violently. Unexpectedly, just as they were about to track your movements, it was blocked.
