Ji Yong looked at the carriage away, his face gloomy. [click com]

Zi Shang's heart was full of suffocation.

The young master has never been ignored like this when he grows up, and I don’t know if there will be any way to deal with Mr. Chen?

However, this Mr. Chen seems to be the fourth lady of the Dou family.

The fourth lady of the Dou family was also very powerful. She pretended to be deaf and dumb, and beat Pang Kunbai to death. The Pang family couldn't say anything about it. In the end, she even compensated the fourth lady of the Dou family for 20,000 taels of silver. If she knew that the young master had messed up her people, I wonder if she would settle the score with the young master?

Although the young master has a strong personality, every time he meets the fourth lady of the Dou family, it feels like a fire hitting water. No matter how strong the fire is, she can cool the young master's heart in just a few words, so that the young master can't breathe for a long time.

If the fourth lady of the Dou family had a dispute with the young master, would it affect his little shrimp?

Zishang was thinking in pain that a person who looked like a manager hurriedly walked out of the side door.

He saluted Ji Yong: "Ju Ren Ji, our marquis invites you to the flower hall to serve tea."

Ji Yong nodded arrogantly at him, with his hands behind his back, and led the way into the gate of Jining Hou Mansion.

The manager was stunned, followed quickly, and rushed in front of him to lead the way.

The Wei family's flower hall is full of greenery, and there are redbuds as thick as a bowl outside the window, which are blooming in full swing, but the furnishings in the house are like a young woman who has passed the flower season, and even applying makeup can't hide the old vicissitudes.

Ji Yong curled his lips and picked up a new-looking Taishi chair and sat down.

The maids served refreshments.

The manager accompanied Jining Hou in.

After seeing each other, after sitting down according to the main and secondary, Jining Hou laughed and said, "Ju Ren Ji is really a successful young man! I wonder what Ji Ju Ren is asking me for?" He had a kind attitude and a kind smile, like an elder who cared for his lower generation.

Ji Yong's heart had been moved a few times.

He originally wanted to use the silence of the Dou family to persuade the Wei family to leave the token of getting engaged with Dou Zhao and negotiate conditions with the Dou family, so that he could not only achieve the goal of asking Zhang Yuanming to be the crown prince.[] It could also gain a moral foothold and allow the Wei family to gain both fame and fortune. Unexpectedly, he met Chen Qushui at the gate of the Marquis of Jining.

Others may be fooled by Chen Qushui, thinking that he is just an unknown accountant gentleman in the Dou family. But he can't hide it from him. In the past two years, he has been used by Dou Zhao. The people of the Dou family have no choice but to ask him to come up with an idea. It is impossible to use Chen Qushui's arrogance.

When he came to Jining Hou Mansion, he must have been ordered by Dou Zhao to solve the token. Although he didn't know how Chen Qushui told the Wei family, he had obviously achieved his goal with his ability.

It is no need to see Jining Hou again.

But for some reason, he was very unwilling to leave like this.

He even didn't want to go home and wait for the spies to break in rashly.

He wanted to know what Chen Qushui had said to Jining Hou? Did the Wei family decide to return the token to the Dou family as he imagined, and then quietly retire the marriage with Dou Zhao when the limelight passed? Or did he suddenly find that Dou Zhao was not only able to do it, but also had a lot of dowry, which could support this down-and-out Guihou Sect, change his mind temporarily, and decide to propose marriage to the Dou family? Or, something else he didn't expect would happen...

Just like he never expected that Dou Zhao would send Chen Qushui to visit Jining Hou Mansion, so he did not send anyone to pay attention to the movements of Zhending.

If he hadn't met Chen Qushui today, he might be complacent that everything is in his control?

He doesn't like this feeling of losing control.

Ji Yong couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Shouldn't Dou Zhao be obediently sitting at home waiting for him to settle this matter for her? Why did she jump out without saying a word, destroying his arrangements and deployments, and even caught him off guard. She almost fell into trouble...

He hasn't encountered such a thing for many years!

Why does she want this?

Are they not from the same camp?

He had said it would help her solve this problem. Did she not believe that she had this ability? Or did she not take his words to heart at all?

These messy things made Ji Yong feel restless and of course there was no good color towards Jining Hou.[]

He said lightly: "I just met Mr. Chen, the accountant of the Dou family at the gate of the palace. He had always taken care of the Dou family in Zhending and suddenly appeared in Kyoto. It must be for the marriage between the palace and the Dou family. I also heard that the government was planning to exchange the title of Prince Jingguo with the He family for the token of engagement from that year. So I came to visit the Marquis and wanted to know whether the Marquis would eventually return the token to the Dou family or hand it over to the He family..."

Jining Hou's face turned black in an instant.

Whether the Wei family is going to return the token to the Dou family or the He family is nothing to do with it!

He was just a child of the Ji family who kindly treated him. He was so good that he opened a dyeing room for him to give him some color. He was so talented but not virtuous that he could only struggle in the officialdom to be a poor Hanlin.

"Mr. Ji is too busy?" Jining Hou picked up the teacup without hesitation and shouted loudly, "Sending off the guests."

Ji Yong naturally would not wait until someone came to chase him out.

When Jining Hou picked up the teacup, he stood up. Before Jining Hou shouted out the words "Sending off guests", he said coldly: "My family and the Dou family are in-laws. Thanks to the second wife of the Dou family, he kept me at the Dou family for the New Year this year. He saw that I was going back to Kyoto to reunite with my father. I was afraid that the Dou family's uncles would be wronged, so I specially entrusted me to pay attention to the movements in Kyoto carefully. If the Dou family's uncles were not able to do anything, and the elders in the family would hide it from her and not let her know, I told me to tell you quietly, if you leave the token in the Wei family at this time, and when the news passed, she would be willing to buy it back with a large amount of money..."

Before he could finish his words, Jining Hou's voice seemed to be blocked. He was stunned for a long time without saying a word, but he quickly began to think about it.

He really looked down on Miss Dou Si, the "broken eldest daughter" of the Dou family. If he exchanged a large sum of silver as Juren said, the Wei family could immediately get rid of the current dilemma, and there would be money to manage the eunuchs in the palace to do a good job for their son, and the Wei family would soon be revitalized. It was just a daughter... If he followed Mr. Chen's words, he would have to marry the fourth lady of the Dou family. Although he could get a dowry and help his daughter, he was controlled by others... it was really a dilemma!

It would be great if there was a way to be both good.

Thoughts flashed through his mind.

Why be so anxious to make a decision?

Now the He family wants that jade pendant, the Dou family wants that jade pendant, and even the second wife of the Dou family has her own plans behind her back. As the saying goes, she can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Why doesn't he wait and delay it again and again, and he might be able to sell it at a better price!

I just don’t know if the Ji family is really a relative of the Dou family, so I have to ask carefully.

After making up his mind, Jining Hou was excited.

Ji Yong knew what he was thinking at a glance, and a hint of contempt flashed in his heart, and suddenly felt sad for Dou Zhao.

Her mother told her what a marriage was like!

If you get married, you can still have a way out!

No matter what, you can't let Dou Zhao marry in!

Ji Yong made up his mind in his heart and listened to the Jining Hou saying pretentiously: "Our Wei family followed Emperor Taizong to fight south and north, and then he gained a place in the Taimiao. Although our descendants were not talented, they never forgot the achievements of our ancestors and dared not do anything that would insult our ancestors. Since the Dou family had exchanged tokens with our family, how could this marriage change at any time..."

While he was chanting, the manager who had previously led Ji Yong in appeared at the door of the flower hall with his head protruding.

Jining Hou Wei frowned, stopped the topic, and said unhappily: "What's the matter?"

The manager hurriedly walked in with his eyebrows down, nodded and said, "Mr. Marquis, the eldest aunt is back..."

Jining Hou was stunned.

The manager came to Jining Hou's ear and spoke.

Ji Yong disdained to eavesdrop, but Zi was holding his ears up but he understood.

"I don't know who reported the letter to my aunt. I said you decided to leave the jade pendant. My aunt hugged the child and cried back, saying that she couldn't survive anymore. My wife was holding her head and crying, but no one listened to her. The prince looked at me and asked me to come to you quickly. He said that if you don't go again, my wife and my grandmother would be crying so hard..."

Jining Hou loved his wife and children very much.

And now that such a change has occurred, my daughter should explain it carefully.

He couldn't sit still at once, and hurriedly said a few polite words to Ji Yong, and served tea to see him off again.

Ji Yong didn't say much and got up and left the flower hall.

Jining Hou hurried to the inner courtyard.

Zishang told Ji Yong what he had just heard.

Ji Yong said: "I'm waiting for you in the carriage, and you follow the Jining Hou to see him. I saw that he was just a corrupt person, and I was afraid that his daughter would cry and make a fuss, so I changed my mind again."

Zi Shang opened his mouth wide: "Go, go to the inner house..."

"What are you afraid of?" Ji Yong glanced at him contemptuously, "Jining Marquis Mansion is so big, their family is now very difficult to use for chewing on weekdays. It is impossible for there to have enough maids to take care of the courtyard. You just need to bypass the main courtyards and enter the inner courtyard smoothly. Even if you are recognized, you say that I have something to look for the Marquis, but you didn't meet anyone along the way, and you walked there in a daze..."

What else could the son say? Follow Ji Yong's instructions and sneaked into the inner courtyard with Jining Hou.

As expected, I didn’t meet anyone on the road, and I saw some remote houses covered with weeds, which looked very desolate.

The young master told it right again.

He whispered, arrived at the main courtyard without any obstacles, and flipped in from the backyard.

The maid and the mother-in-law were standing under the corridor of the main room. He stuck it to the back window and listened. The voice of Jining Hou came from time to time: "... The palms and backs of hands are full of flesh. I care about your brother, and I can't leave you alone... You can listen to me, that's right... I can still harm you..."

Zishang quietly turned back and encountered trouble when he was hanging flowers - an old lady stopped him: "What are you doing? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"I'm sweeping the floor in the outer courtyard." Zishang said in a hurry, "I just saw that there was no one in front of the hanging flower gate, so I shook here."

"Why is there no one?" The old lady was puzzled.

Zishang ran out in a flash, shouting, "I'm going back to pay," and left the Jining Marquis Mansion.

Ji Yong asked him: "What's going on?"

The son learned everything he heard to Ji Yong.

Ji Yong nodded and asked: "What restaurant is the best in Kyoto? I want to invite He Yu to drink!"
