Chapter 540
Since Shen Shu said she wanted to see her, she also expressed her feelings. Her liking was not wishful thinking. Although they could not see each other now, their hearts were already together.
When Qi Wangshu asked this question, Ji Ziqi gave an answer without hesitation. He looked at Qi Wangshu and blurted out: "Yes, if Concubine Shen is really willing to be with Wei Chen , I don’t need this black gauze hat.”
Qi Wangshu thought that Shen Shu must also be thinking the same way. If she could really be with Ji Ziqi, the prosperity and wealth in the rest of her life would have nothing to do with it.
Qi Wangshu looked at Ji Ziqi. She had no way to promise Ji Ziqi for Shen Shu, but now that she knew Ji Ziqi's intentions, Shen Shu no longer had to feel sad for Qiu every day.
Qi Wangshu now has an idea in his mind. If Shen Shu dies and leaves the palace under a different identity, can he and Ji Ziqi be together forever?
But this matter still needs to be considered in the long term, and there are still Danhong's aspects to consider, so they can't just make a conclusion on this matter so simply, they must think about it again.
"In this case, you remember to go to the palace with Liang Ji in the future. He is the queen's brother, so it is more convenient to go to the harem. I will also tell Concubine Shen that we will meet at Qianning Palace. Where is the queen? The place where you live is safer." Qi Wangshu told Ji Ziqi.
Ji Ziqi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Princess, for your support. I will keep this in mind."
There was something strange in Qi Wangshu's eyes. She didn't know why, but she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her heart. Why should a person who is clearly consensual be constrained by so many factors?
"You don't have to thank me, it was Mrs. Shen who arranged this." Qi Wangshu said, "The girl next to you seems to have some thoughts about you. Are you... really just brother and sister?"
There was a misunderstanding about the relationship between the two of them before. Qi Wangshu went up and talked about it indiscriminately. He was really embarrassed. Now that all the important words were said, Qi Wangshu suddenly thought of Gua Ning. I couldn't help but ask about this matter.
Ji Ziqi turned back and glanced at Jian Hening, who was standing next to General Liang Ji. At this time, she was looking at herself worriedly. She felt uncomfortable around the unfamiliar Liang Ji.
Jian Hening, who originally said she liked fireworks the most, had no intention of watching fireworks at this time. She stood next to Liang Ji and looked at Ji Ziqi and Princess Qi Wangshu who were talking not far away. She didn't know what they were talking about. Things, but I think it must not be a good thing for me.
Looking at the serious expression on Princess Qi Wangshu's face, she knew that this matter must not be a good thing for her.
Jian Hening watched Ji Ziqi turn his head to look at herself, and then stretched out his hand to say hello, but Liang Ji next to her subconsciously turned back to look at her, and she also put her hand down.
Ji Ziqi turned to look at Princess Wangshu, and then said: "Jian Hening came to my house once when she was a child, but we haven't seen her since. Recently, my uncle at home wrote a letter saying that a friend came to Beijing to study, and I didn't expect it to be her. It is said that there was an engagement between us, but I have no memory of this matter at all."
Qi Wangshu also looked at Jian Hening, and then said: "So, if nothing else happens, you will marry her?"
Ji Ziqi shook his head and said: "Thirteen years have passed, and I no longer remember her. In my impression, she has always been regarded as my sister. Even if... without Shen Shu, I would not marry her."
Qi Wangshu looked at Jian Hening, who was looking at Ji Ziqi with enthusiasm, and said, "But this girl may not think so."
Ji Ziqiye looked back at Jian Hening and said, "She is just a child and doesn't understand anything. When she goes back after playing, I will also tell my uncle to break off the engagement."
Qi Wangshu was impressed by Ji Ziqi's amazing sense of responsibility. She nodded and then said: "Actually, there are too many unavoidable things in life. Just follow your heart."
Ji Ziqi cupped his hands and said, "I will follow your instructions."
Qi Wangshu smiled: "I have nothing to teach you. You have written more words than I have read. You should understand some truths, but you just don't want to think about them."
Ji Ziqi stopped talking.
Qi Wangshu said: "Okay, that's it. Remember to come to the palace the day after tomorrow. Concubine Shen is waiting for you."
Ji Ziqi nodded and said, "Wei Chen understands."
After saying that, Qi Wangshu walked towards Liang Ji, her face no longer had the severe expression at that time. She nodded slightly, as if to indicate that the matter was finished and it was successful.
Liang Ji also breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, most of the matter has been settled now. The next step is for him to bring Ji Ziqi into the palace. Then it will be a matter between him and Concubine Shen.
As outsiders, it was hard for them to say anything about this kind of thing. It was a particularly difficult thing to deal with. With such class status, it was simply as difficult as climbing to the sky to be together.
If someone discovers it then, it will be even more troublesome. This will also be a difficult thing for Tianchao Danlong and the Taiyuan Ji family.
Seeing that they were back, Jian Hening quickly stepped forward, took Ji Ziqi's hand, and said, "Brother Ziqi, you are finally back."
Qi Wangshu glanced at her and then asked: "Miss Jian has come all the way. It can be seen that the New Year is approaching, so it is time to go home to celebrate the New Year, right?"
Jian Hening didn't expect the princess to talk to her, so she slowly let go of Ji Ziqi's hand, looked at Princess Wangshu politely, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, princess. The daughter of the people has made an agreement with her family. When brother Qi goes back, go back together."
"Ji Ziqi is an official in the capital. Since he is already a capital official and the number one scholar this year, he will definitely be invited to the palace during the feast of his family and country. On New Year's Eve, only Miss Jian will be in the palace." Qi Wangshu looked at her and said.
At this time, Ji Ziqi and Liang Ji stood together and exchanged glances with each other. Although they were not too familiar with each other, they could still feel the faint smell of gunpowder between Qi Wangshu and Jian Hening. I don't know if it was because of the current situation. What was the reason for the fireworks show? You can indeed smell some disharmony between them.
Jian Hening smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as brother Ziqi comes back after the banquet."
"That's not necessarily true. The emperor appreciates Ji Ziqi, so he might stay in the palace." Qi Wangshu said with a smile.
Jian Hening looked at Ji Ziqi, then smiled and said: "It's just a short stay, so what does it matter? I will always come back."
"How old is Miss Jian this year?" Qi Wangshu invited them to enjoy the fireworks together and said as they walked.
Jian Hening knew she couldn't hide, so she could only bite the bullet and step forward and said: "The civilian girl is eighteen years old this year."
Qi Wangshu nodded. She didn't like such a cryptic conversation, so she said directly: "I just heard from Ji Ziqi that you have a marriage contract with him?"
Jian Hening didn't know what issue they were talking about just now, and how they came to talk about this matter, but since the princess asked this, she could only say: "Yes, the family friendship between the common daughter and brother Ziqi"
, so the engagement was made.”
"Ji Ziqi is now the Minister of War of the Celestial Dynasty. In front of this princess, you should call him Master Ji." Qi Wangshu was so disgusted that she called Ji Ziqi his brother Ziqi. It was clear that Ji Ziqi had no other feelings for her. She
Just sticking it on makes it look extremely cheap, which is really a bit disgusting.
Jian Hening held back the anger in her heart and smiled: "Do the princess and Master Ji have a good relationship?"
Qi Wangshu looked at the fireworks in the distance and said, "I'm not familiar with him. I just met him on the road today. I have something to tell him."
Qi Wangshu turned to look at Jian Hening with a smile, and said: "But don't ask if God has anything to do with you. This matter has nothing to do with you. I advise you to go home earlier. The New Year is approaching.
When the ceremony arrived, countless dignitaries came to celebrate, and there was no room for the rest of the crowd in the capital."
After saying that, Qi Wangshu turned around and pulled Liang Ji to leave. Ji Ziqi greeted him respectfully behind him.
Jian He Ning's hand hidden in her sleeve clenched a fist, and then said: "Thank you princess for reminding me, the daughter of the people must stay in Beijing to see more."
Qi Wangshu smiled disdainfully, and then left without looking back.
After walking for a while, Liang Ji asked: "What did you say to that girl just now?"
Qi Wangshu's heart was filled with depression and anger. Looking at Liang Ji, he felt a little angry. He said angrily: "Brother Ji, Wangshu is tired and wants to go back to rest. Let's go back quickly, okay?"
Qi Wangshu would never speak like this. When he heard this, Liang Ji felt a little strange. What did Qi Wangshu say to them just now? Why was he so strict?
Liang Ji quickly asked: "What's wrong, little princess? Who made you angry?"
Qi Wangshu pouted and said, "You men are really not a good thing."
What's going on? How come it was so good just now, but after chatting for a while, we men didn't say anything good?
Liang Ji didn't understand and asked, "What's wrong? Did Ji Ziqi say something?"
Qi Wangshu didn't know why he was angry, but he was very angry.
Jian Hening and Ji Ziqi were engaged, but now Shen Shu fell in love with Ji Ziqi, but Ji Ziqi also liked Shen Shu.
This is not a difficult task. If Shen Shu were an ordinary girl, she would have asked the emperor to grant her a marriage. Even if there was a marriage contract, it would not matter.
But now, Shen Shu is the concubine of the Celestial Dynasty, the emperor's aunt, a concubine in the palace, and a young minister. They would never think of going together.
After all, it’s fate that plays tricks on people...
Qi Wangshu shook her head, sighed and said, "It's okay, I'm a little tired, let's go back first."
Since Ji Ziqi also loves Shen Shu, he wants them to be together.
But it happened that the concubine was Shen Shu, the princess of Danxi.
There are too many things involved behind this, and there are too many issues to consider.
Qi Wangshu didn't really want to think about this matter, so he just thought about it when he went back tomorrow.
Since Qi Wangshu didn't say anything, Liang Ji had no choice but to accompany her back. It was originally a happy fireworks festival, but after meeting Ji Ziqi and Jian Hening, it changed.
*
After Qi Wangshu and Liang Ji left, Ji Ziqi kept thinking about what Princess Wangshu said to him just now, feeling a little distracted.
When Jian Hening arrived in Shangjing City, he realized that the higher official rank was more important than anything else. In front of these dignitaries, even though she was a lady from a well-known clan in the world, she could still claim to be a daughter of the people.
Thinking of Qi Wangshu's arrogant look, Jian Hening wanted to whip her with a whip, but this was obviously impossible.
Looking at Ji Ziqi, Jian Hening felt that he was distracted. On the way back, she asked: "Brother Ziqi, what did Princess Wangshu say to you just now? Are you so distracted?"
Ji Ziqi came back to his senses, looked at Jian He Ning, and said, "He Ning, if you have had enough fun in Shangjing City, go back."
Jian Hening felt a little panicked and quickly asked: "Brother Ziqi, why are you driving me away?"
"You don't belong here. You should go back. I will make it clear to my uncle about the engagement. You don't have to worry." Ji Ziqi looked at Jian Hening and said.
"Why?" Jian Hening quickly grabbed Ji Ziqi and asked: "What did Princess Wangshu just say? Why has your attitude towards me changed so much? Does the princess know about our engagement? Why do you talk about this? Something? Are you going to stay in Shangjing and be the consort?"
Now Ji Ziqi's mind was all about Shen Shu, and he didn't have time to think about Jian He Ning's affairs. Faced with Jian He Ning's questioning, he couldn't help but said: "Okay! He Ning, I will tell you when you come here. It’s impossible for me to accept this engagement, so don’t think about it. I will talk to your uncles about breaking off the engagement, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore. I have nothing to do with the princess, so don’t misunderstand me. .”
Jian Hening didn't know what exactly happened. Today was obviously going to be a good night, with fireworks, delicious food, and the so-called loved one by her side, but everything suddenly changed. Jian Hening did something Not sure what exactly happened.
But now Ji Ziqi doesn't have the patience to explain too many things to Jian Hening. He has been thinking about how to be with Shen Shu forever. When he learned that the two of them are in love, I started thinking about staying together forever.
This matter needs long-term consideration. He wants Shen Shu to be his wife, but he doesn't want Danxi to be hurt at all because of this matter. In this case, Shen Shu will definitely be very unhappy.
Ji Ziqi couldn't think about too many questions now. His mind was filled with Shen Shu's appearance, and every smile was engraved in his mind.
