royal girl

Chapter 59 The Probe of the Draft

"Second brother." Ji Qiyu also stood up and greeted Ji Fuyan.

"Fourth brother, it's rare to see you go out, or Tong Wenxing, who can invite you here." Ji Fuyan teased with a smile, and reached out to pat the shoulder of the seventh prince beside him to show his closeness.

The Seventh Prince rubbed his nose and called out his second brother with a smile, then just watched from the side and didn't say anything else.

Listening to Ji Fuyan's teasing, Ji Qiyu replied solemnly, "I met you on the road, so come and sit down."

Ji Fuyan didn't mind Ji Qiyu's cold expression, basically his fourth brother always had such an expressionless face when he saw everyone, as if nothing could move him.Hearing Ji Qiyu answer such a joking answer with a very serious expression, Ji Fuyan felt embarrassed.

As for being so serious?
"Second brother, you said there is something wrong, what's the matter?" The sixth prince asked everyone to sit down again, and he himself sat on the one-foot-wide railing in the pavilion and asked with a smile.

Ji Fuyan first smiled, coughed lightly, and then said: "Isn't there going to be a talent show in the next year? Our brothers should also be married when they are middle-aged. I'll hear what everyone thinks, so I can talk to the palace officials. I will."

Everyone looked at each other, and Ji Jinxiang first smiled, "I'm still young, so I won't be able to do this round. The second brother and the fourth brother will congratulate you first."

Ji Shuchen also booed, "It's nothing to do with my brother, congratulations to the two brothers."

Ji Qiyu's expression didn't change when he heard such a thing, Ji Fuyan didn't seem to care much on his face, but secretly looked at his expression in his heart.Seeing that his younger brother can't change his face even when he hears such things, he actually feels a little uncomfortable in his heart. This kid is born with a late-night face, and his eyebrows and nose will not move even if the sky falls. , the maturity and prudence brought in the mother's womb are really depressing.

"The matter of marriage is decided by the father and the emperor, and the son just waits to receive the order." Ji Qiyu said.

Ji Fuyan looked at Ji Qiyu with a full smile, "Fourth brother, you are really meaningless. As a brother, I want to give you some information in advance, just to make it easier for you. If you have any ideas, just say it." .”

"Thank you second brother, brother really has no other meaning."

The marriages of the princes are all appointed by the emperor. Although it is said so, in fact, in private, it seems that the mother-in-law of the second and sixth princes is still alive. One is supported by a powerful family, and the other is a royal concubine who is crowned in the harem. When the time comes, as long as the marriage is decided in private, and when the time comes, tell the emperor that as long as it doesn't provoke the emperor's taboo, the marriage will be appointed.But like Ji Qiyu who has no mother, no one in the harem can speak in front of the emperor. At that time, the emperor may just point out a lady to be his concubine. This kind of thing has been inherited in the past dynasties. practice.

Ji Fuyan revealed the news in advance, in fact, it was also an idea to win over Ji Qiyu, but he didn't expect Ji Qiyu to be so ignorant of flattery, so he returned it without even thinking about it, which made Ji Fuyan feel a little ugly.

Ji Fuyan stopped talking, and the scene became a bit colder.The seventh prince pretends to be stupid, but the sixth prince and Tong Wen can't pretend to be stupid.After all, Tong Wen is an outsider. At this time, he wished he had no ears to hide from the royal family's private affairs, so how could he dare to come forward.It can only be that the sixth prince received Tong Wen's gaze, thought for a while, opened his mouth to break the deadlock, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother's temper is still the same, and it hasn't changed at all for so many years. But second brother, you also know that fourth brother I don’t usually have much contact with these families in Kyoto, so if you want to ask him which family’s girl is better, you might as well ask him about articles, knowledge, economics and official career.”

With the sixth prince smoothing things over, Ji Fuyan smiled and said with a sigh: "I also have a good intention, it's fine if the fourth brother doesn't appreciate it."

Ji Qiyu glanced at Ji Fuyan, and said: "Second brother's friendship is known to my younger brother, but what my younger brother said is the truth. I really don't have anyone in my heart. What the father means must be good."

Knowing that there was nothing to ask, Ji Fuyan didn't ask any further questions. Hearing the laughter on the other side, he looked up, looked at Tong Wen and asked, "Are there any other guests in the garden today?" It sounded like It's the voice of the female relatives. What is Tong Wen going to do?
Tong Wen didn't dare to neglect Ji Fuyan. The second prince has been in the limelight recently, and no one can say anything about it in the future. Everyone hasn't broken their skins yet, so naturally they don't want to make a scene.Immediately explained: "It's really a coincidence, I invited the sixth prince to come to the garden today to enjoy the scenery, and I ran into the fourth prince and the seventh prince on the way to enjoy the scenery, so I invited them to play together. I didn't expect my sister to invite friends to play. They bumped into each other, and everyone entered the door, so I can't change my life, and it's okay to arrive across the lake."

It fits with what I said to Ji Qiyu before, it seems that I really met by chance on the road.Ji Fuyan nodded, the ban on men and women in this dynasty was not that serious, so he didn't think it was a big deal, and said again: "It's really a coincidence, speaking of this year's parade is coming up soon, do you have any plans? I heard that a batch of good bows have been bought recently, do you want to go and have a look together?"

Ever since he came back and didn't get out of trouble, the people who were hidden behind him also surfaced. No one thought that the one who came back and didn't leave to support him was Bei'anhou.Who is the hottest person in Kyoto right now?It's really the Marquis of Bei'an who bears the brunt of it. Everyone still remembers the Xingwei incident last year clearly, and now this year's Xingwei is coming again. If you come or leave, you really know how to do business. Good bows and arrows, now everyone wants to curry favor with the Marquis of Bei'an, one can imagine the good business if they come and never leave.

"Okay, let's go to open our eyes together when the time comes. It's really interesting to say that it's not going to leave. The things sold are weird and weird, and the seller is also weird. All things are limited in number, even if you sell them again The high price is gone, and I still feel that I have earned a lot of money." Ji Shuchen was worried. A few days ago, he heard that if he came, he had a clairvoyance, saying that he could see far away. He asked someone to buy it, it's gone!Who bought it, and the store owner refused to say, if it wasn't for the support of Bei'an Hou, he would really shut him down if he came.

"Naturally, he has his own way of doing business. I see that he is very good at doing business when he comes here. There are not many things, as long as someone buys them. Now he really has a lot of customers, but if you come to something new, you can run away." I can’t even buy it if I’m too slow. Tsk tsk, this is really the first time I’ve seen this kind of situation, and it’s a rare sight.” Ji Jinxiang was also a little dissatisfied after all, these princes have always been the color that others see them, when They want to see the face of a businessman.It's not that they are afraid of Marquis Bei'an, but they are afraid of the emperor who stands behind Marquis Bei'an. When the Marquis of Bei'an is not valued by the emperor, hehe, it will be lively then.

"That's true." Although Ji Fuyan smiled, his eyes were deep, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Several people were chatting, Tong Wen had already prepared a banquet, and invited everyone to have dinner in the front living room.The few people were really hungry after sitting all morning, so they heard Tong Wen say: "The fish are all freshly caught in the lake, all of them are fresh, even steamed and braised in brown sauce."

"Huh? What's this smell?" Ji Jinxiang stood still, his nose was the most brilliant, and he couldn't walk if he had something delicious, and he wanted to know what was going on when he smelled the aroma.

When Ji Jinxiang asked such a question, the rest of the people stopped, and they really smelled this fragrance.Tong Wen didn't know what was going on, so he stretched out his hand to summon a servant and said, "Go and see what's going on."

Soon the boy came back, bowed to salute, and then replied: "Masters, there are a few girls on the other side of the lake who are grilling fish. The fish are caught, killed, and grilled in the lake. , I heard it was Miss Dong Er's idea."

"Oh? This is a new thing. It's not like I've never eaten grilled fish before, but it's a bit more wild to catch and grill it by the lake." Ji Fuyan turned around and looked across the row of willow trees by the lake. , Sure enough, I saw figures on the grass by the opposite lake.

Hearing the meaning of Ji Fuyan's words, Tong Wen immediately said: "Since this is the case, why don't we do the same? I'll give you an order to get someone to put on airs, and it will be over in a while."

"No, no, this seems to be more than just the smell of grilled fish." As a senior foodie, Ji Jinxiang's nose is not so sensitive. When it comes to eating, he is more excited than anything else, so he smiled without thinking about anything else: "Instead of being here Let’s guess here, let’s go and have a look. It’s not a problem if it’s not a private meeting between men and women in public.”

Tong Wen looked embarrassed, "This...isn't that good?"

"What's wrong, there are so many people, and it's not like there's no one there. Walk around and have a look." Ji Jinxiang didn't care about others, and walked forward with Ji Qiyu.

Ji Qiyu withdrew her hand without moving her expression, and followed behind the Seventh Prince, pacing forward slowly.

With a twinkle in Ji Fuyan's eyes, he said with a smile, "Seventh brother really doesn't care about food anymore, he's gone, we have to go and see if we don't know what to say."

Ji Fuyan raised his foot and followed, but Ji Shuchen and Tong Wen had no choice but to follow with a smile on their stomachs filled with anger.Who made them unlucky, today is the host.Everyone has passed, so they naturally have to go to see if there is any accident, and it will be really embarrassing if something happens.
