Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 120 Mistakes
Ji Wang knew Geng Jieqing before he entered the Ministry of Criminal Justice, but the two belonged to different circles and had no contact with each other.Some children in Beijing like to have fun, some like women, and some have special preferences. Everyone has their own circles and maintains a delicate balance.Geng Jieqing used to be very close to the arty gang, but later he gradually faded out, and he only loved to visit some dilapidated houses and old houses to verify the truth of the rumors in the market.It was also in these houses that he encountered his first corpse, a half-decomposed corpse.

I don't know if the visual impact at that time was so strong that he changed his temperament. In short, he became interested in the structure of the human body after that. He couldn't move the human body, so he could only go to Yizhuang to see the corpse.The corpses in Yizhuang were very ordinary, and soon he got tired of it, so he set his eyes on the morgue in Jingzhao Yamen, and for the convenience of frequent visits, he even made acquaintance with the servant Wu Zuo and others in the Yamen.

However, his interest in some rumors in the market has not diminished. He wanted to take a look at Prince Ping's Mansion earlier, even though the guards quietly told him that the rumors were false, his curiosity did not fade.For this reason, he catered to Prince Ji who was curious about him, and became friends with him, but before he spoke, Prince Ping became his future brother-in-law, and even if he wanted to come to King Ping, he would not refuse him to come to Prince Ping's mansion.

Geng Lanqing was not interested in Prince Ping's mansion, and she didn't have much interest in Prince Ping. At that time, she was stunned when she received the order. She didn't want to become Princess Ping, and everything she did was to attract Prince Ji's attention.

After King Ji came to the Ministry of Punishment, he entered and exited the Geng Mansion many times.At first, Geng Lanqing was just curious about what kind of person this King Ji was, and why he was so unpopular with Meng Yanran.The story of King Ji's courtship to Meng Yanran was spread all over the circle, some made fun of him, and some envied Meng Yanran.Meng Yanran has always been aloof and arrogant, she considers herself the most talented woman in the capital, and she can hardly see the ladies in Beijing, including Geng Lanqing.It's normal for a person like her to look down on Ji Wang, Ji Wang is only interested in having fun and has no talent, so how could he fall into Meng Yanran's eyes.

After only getting along a few times, Geng Lanqing felt that Meng Yanran was born in the midst of blessings and didn't know how to be blessed. She didn't even like such a considerate, caring and generous man. If it were her... She changed her mind and her cheeks turned red , a heart unknowingly fell to the side.It's just that she has always been restrained, and her thoughts are not even seen by the personal maid beside her.

Being a side concubine in her capacity is really a bit wronged, but she couldn't let it go, just when she was in a dilemma, the palace even ordered a marriage.This is a good time for her to wield the sword of wisdom to cut her emotions, she really thinks so.

The two stood at the gate of Prince Ping's Mansion for a while before King Ji came out from Prince Ji's Mansion to accompany the two of them in.Geng Lanqing saw that King Ji didn't seem to have much energy, which was quite different from the way he talked when he went to Geng's mansion in the past, so he was a little concerned.

The four of them strolled around for a while, and then King Ji accompanied Geng Jieqing to the old courtyard specially reserved by King Ping, which was specially built by King Ping to commemorate the dead.Hearing that Geng Jieqing was coming, he asked Ji Wang and Geng Jieqing to take a look in the yard, and specifically explained that the yard was a bit scary.King Ping accompanied Geng Lanqing to drink tea in a teahouse to appreciate the remaining snow left over from the previous few days.The room was very quiet, the two chatted for a few words and then stopped talking. Geng Lanqing looked at the teacup in her hand in confusion and frowned slightly. Her eyes lit up when Ji Wang and Geng Jieqing came back.King Ping pursed his lips, put down his teacup and turned to look at the door.

"Xiao Qi, why didn't you tell me that you have such an interesting yard earlier, even Jieqing was frightened."

"Yeah, even though I knew it was all fake later on, it still gave me a big jump." Geng Jieqing smiled while clutching his chest.

"What are you talking about?" Geng Lanqing asked in a timely manner, looking at King Ji with a vague gaze.

"I'm talking about King Ping's old courtyard. Xiaoqi, I've made an agreement. I have to bring people over to play in a few days."

"You're not afraid that sister-in-law will do it if you say so." Ping Wang joked.

Ji Wang lowered his face and clicked his tongue, "Don't mention this spoiler, by the way, is there anything to eat? I didn't eat breakfast, I'm hungry."

King Ping hurriedly interrupted the conversation and said, "My yard has not been finished yet, and you will bring people over when it is finished."

"Success, remember to say, I want to be the first one."

"Yes, I must remember."

"And me, I also want to see what the finished yard looks like." Geng Jieqing said quickly.

The three of them chatted enthusiastically about the yard, but Geng Lanqing who was beside him understood something from what King Ping said just now.She looked at King Ji with some sympathy. It was because he married such a concubine that he had no one in sight that King Ji lived such a restrained life, and he had to suffer from her idleness.If she married someone else, she would definitely not be like this.After all, Meng Yanran's appearance is just a little bit better. Her talents and names are only praised by others because she is from the Meng family, and only she herself takes it seriously.

After the three chatted about the yard for a while, King Ping suddenly remembered a bone he picked up while tidying up the yard.

"Many people say it's an animal bone, but I think it's a human bone. I wonder if Brother Geng can help identify it?"

Geng Jieqing naturally agreed.As soon as Geng Lanqing heard that he was going to see the bones, he immediately lost interest, and would rather sit in the teahouse than go with him.Originally, King Ji wanted to go together, but King Ping stopped him.

"It's fine that the things in the yard just now were all fake, but this bone is real. You're not afraid, you're not afraid to bring things back and bump into Mrs. Wang?"

King Ji touched his nose and had no choice but to stay.Previously, he went to a murder scene because he joined the guards to join in the fun, and when he returned home, he had a strange smell on his body. Princess Ji was angry with him for a month after she found out, and she was so scared that he didn't dare to run around again.As soon as Ping Wang and Geng Lanqing left, only Ji Wang and Geng Lanqing were left in the tea room. Although there were servants present, Geng Lanqing's heart was still throbbing, and he lowered his head and dared not look at Ji Wang.

Ji Wang obviously found out that the two of them were getting along alone, and he couldn't help but secretly blame Xiao Qi for not being enlightened, and even his fiancée hasn't been settled yet, so why rush to please the second brother-in-law.Afraid that Geng Lanqing would care, he deliberately chatted with Geng Lanqing about some interesting things, and also praised King Ping by the way.Geng Lanqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and listened obediently until King Ji mentioned a certain dessert that King Ping liked.

"Originally, this king also loved to eat Fang Ji's dim sum the most, but the princess is pregnant now, and the family can't have dim sum at home. Even if this king eats it outside, she will feel nauseous when she smells it. This king has not had it for a month. Have a snack." Ji Wang said with emotion.

But how could it be so pretentious to be pregnant? Her sister-in-law didn't have such a problem when she was pregnant. Geng Lanqing pulled the veil and thought, looking at Prince Ji who seemed to have lost weight very distressedly, and comforted him in a loud voice: "Your Majesty is really wronged." gone."

"It's hard for the princess to be pregnant. There's nothing I can do about it." Ji Wang said casually. He used to be a fun-loving person, and he did talk to girls in the street a few times, but after getting married, he felt completely different. Well, even if the princess is pregnant and he doesn't even accept the room, he can call himself a lover.Of course, if he accepts it, the princess will look at him with eyes like looking at dirty things, but outsiders will not know.

"If it's a little girl, it's definitely not like this." Geng Lanqing couldn't help saying.

When King Ji saw her, he took the opportunity to praise her, "I have always known that you are a good girl, otherwise I would not have mentioned you to my mother and concubine and asked you to marry Prince Ping as my concubine. Although King Ping was a little confused, he was a kind girl with a heart." Sincere person, even if you are a little willful in the future, he will let you go."

"My little girl won't do it." Geng Lanqing said, looking firmly at King Ji, with complicated lights shining in his eyes.

King Ji was taken aback for a moment, but he smiled inexplicably, and continued, "This king really did not miss you."

"Then why are you..." Geng Lanqing's words stuck in her throat, she clutched the handkerchief tightly knowing that she would never say the next words, she originally wanted to keep them in her heart for the rest of her life.

Under her frighteningly bright eyes like water, Prince Ji's heart skipped a beat, and he faintly had a bad guess.He couldn't believe that he would encounter such a thing, and immediately stood up to avoid it.Only then did he discover that the servants who had been waiting in the house had left the house and hid far away outside the house at some point, and the entourage who followed him followed King Ping and Geng Jieqing out of curiosity, and the girl who followed Geng Lanqing had just been killed by someone. Called out, as if there was something wrong, he and Geng Lanqing were left in the room before he knew it.

Geng Lanqing also found out about this. Seeing that King Ji was about to leave the house, she had no time to stand up and grabbed King Ji's sleeve.

"Your Highness..." She called him with a bit of resentment, which made King Ji's ears itch.

"Miss Geng, please respect yourself, you will soon be Princess Ping." King Ji wanted to pull his sleeve out of her hand as he spoke.

Since Geng Lanqing opened his mouth, he simply used his strength to stand up, hugged his arm, and said: "Your Highness, I don't want to be Princess Ping, I would rather be your side concubine and love you with all my heart."

Before King Ji could say anything, a voice sounded not far away: "Little sister, what nonsense are you talking about!"

King Ji was startled, and looked over nervously, and saw King Ping and Geng Jieqing standing not far away.Even though Geng Jieqing was obsessed with the structure of the human body, he was not ignorant of the world. Seeing this scene, he immediately strode forward and pulled Geng Lanqing over.Geng Lanqing was also stunned. She did speak nonsense on the spur of the moment, but it was not her original intention.

"Your Majesty, my sister must have gotten into trouble before she uttered such nonsense. Your Majesty, I will take her home to recuperate."

After speaking and saluting to the two of them, he dragged the ashamed Geng Lanqing away.King Ping didn't say anything, he just stood there quietly, which made King Ji feel even more guilty.Thinking back, he beat the second child who cheated on his sister-in-law, but he didn't expect to do such a thing now.

"Xiao Qi, you heard that I..." He stepped forward and looked anxiously at King Ping.

Prince Ping shook his head a little desolately, and said, "Sixth Brother, you don't need to explain. I know what Sixth Brother is. This matter has nothing to do with you. You have always been more popular with girls than me."

"Who said that you were born handsome and taller than me. When you were young, others thought you were my brother." Ji Wang quickly comforted him.

"My height is the same as that of my second brother." Prince Ping said calmly, looking down at the ground.

He still knows, Ji Wang thought to himself, he always thought that Ping Wang didn't know the real reason for the Shen family's resignation, and he was willing to keep it from him, so that he wouldn't get sulky when he found out.But he finally found out, and found out that his second fiancée had also made a similar mistake. King Ji was secretly annoyed, angry at King Huo for the daughter of the Shen family, and also angry with the daughter of the Geng family and himself.

King Ping bowed his head in silence for a moment, then raised his head and asked cautiously: "This marriage, what should we do now?"

"Don't worry, I begged for this marriage for you, so naturally I'll push it for you." Saying that, King Ji was about to leave.

"Let's discuss it first," King Ping quickly advised him.

"You don't have to worry, just stay at home. Don't worry, I will help you solve it." Ji Wang said with a serious face and strode away.

King Ping looked at his back at the same place, and after making sure that he was far away, he walked back to the tea room slowly, walked to the seat where Geng Lanqing was sitting, and poured out the leftover tea she drank, turned around and put the tea bowl on the table, and boiled it with The water was scalded again.

There are all kinds of good things in the palace, which can be used occasionally, he thought as he put down the kettle.

On the other hand, after King Ji left Prince Ping's mansion, he brought Wang He who had just witnessed the scene and hurried into the palace, and went directly to meet Yang Chengjian.Yang Chengjian was eating snacks in the imperial study, and he heard that King Ji came in a hurry, and he was still wondering what it was for.

"Couldn't he have taken a fancy to the things in my treasury again?" Yang Chengjian joked, and ordered Yongfu, "Let him in."

Yongfu got the order to let people announce that King Ji would come in.After King Ji came in, seeing that Yang Chengjian was in a good mood, he knelt on the ground without saying a word.

"What's the matter? Did you get into trouble?"

Among Yang Chengjian's sons, Ji Wang Mao was frizzy and easy to get into trouble. Fortunately, this kid had a good heart and couldn't cause any major troubles.Usually, when he got into trouble, he always resisted and refused to admit it. Why did he kneel down when he was so obedient today? How big a crime is this?Yang Chengjian thought to himself.Seeing that King Ji didn't answer, but instead raised his head and glanced at the inner pass on the side, Yang Chengjian wanted to laugh, but he still waved his hands to get everyone to back off.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" He asked again, it's almost Chinese New Year, so don't make a big deal out of it.

King Ji gritted his teeth, and told about the appointment of Geng's brothers and sisters to Pingwang's mansion in the afternoon, including of course what happened in the tea room: "I don't know if Mrs. Geng is really bewitched, but Xiao Qi also saw it. , I'm afraid this marriage will not work out."

"Xiao Qi asked you to tell me?" Yang Chengjian asked with a sullen brow.

"Xiaoqi didn't say anything, but this marriage was originally led by the son-in-law, and this kind of thing happened again, of course the son-in-law has to come forward to solve it."

"How long have you been engaged! Let's see what's going on with Miss Geng's family first."

"Unless she is really bewitched." Ji Wang muttered, still insisting on retiring, "My son thought about it on the way, this time the marriage was given in a hurry, and the horoscopes of the two haven't matched yet. For this reason."

Yang Chengjian thought for a while, then sighed, "Okay, I understand."

"Then father agreed?" King Ji asked tentatively, seeing Yang Chengjian looking over impatiently, he immediately thanked Yang Chengjian knowingly, and left cheerfully.

Yang Chengjian felt a little helpless when he saw that he wanted to help Xiaoqi so wholeheartedly.It's a good thing that King Ji thinks about his brother, but this King Ping... Yang Chengjian used to think that King Ping was too weak, and he didn't usually pay much attention to him. It wasn't until the imperial examination fraud case came out that he became suspicious of King Ping.It's just that King Ping has always lived in seclusion and has never done anything suspicious. At most, there are some weird rumors in the house, and these rumors are all bad and not beneficial to King Ping.

The more trouble can be found out, the more Yang Chengjian feels that Prince Ping's mind is not pure.This year, King Ping changed three places and didn't see any complaints, and he didn't have any entertainment at ordinary times. The most recent reception he went to was at Cheng Dashan's mansion. It doesn't seem like he has any thoughts; but he has no thoughts at all. But Yang Chengjian didn't believe it, and so did the other princes.It's just that the concubine is different, other princes can think about it, but King Ping can't.

The marriage that King Ji proposed for him seems to be the best marriage that King Ping can get so far, but judging by the results, King Ping seems to be unwilling.The child didn't know what he was planning, Yang Chengjian thought to himself, no trace could be found after being searched, even Geng Lanqing went back there, as if the accident was really just a whim of hers.Yang Chengjian frowned slightly, since the marriage had to be abandoned and he followed his wishes, he would like to see what kind of good marriage Prince Ping can have after this.
