Ji Ru gritted her teeth. In order to become the empress, it seemed that it was time for her to find Zhuo Jin.
Zhuo Jin, who was staying in his own house, was very surprised when his housekeeper said that a lady came to see him.
You know, in the past Zhuo Jin was just a counselor beside the prince, and was even sent to the side of the seventh prince. Because of this, Zhuo Jin didn't even have a residence of his own in Kyoto.
But after Zhuo Jin made suggestions for the prince and thought of ways to consolidate the prince's position, the prince suddenly rewarded Zhuo Jin with a three-in-one courtyard a month ago.
Even though Zhuo Jin has owned this yard for a month, Zhuo Jin only moved in ten days ago.
Before Zhuo Jin moved here, no one else in the prince's palace knew that Zhuo Jin had his own house in Kyoto.
Because of this, a guest came to our door today. Why didn't this surprise Zhuo Jin?
Zhuo Jin certainly had no reason to turn away guests when they came from afar. Furthermore, the guest who knew he was moving so quickly was not a simple person, so Zhuo Jin was even more interested in meeting him.
.
However, when the housekeeper actually introduced the guest into the house, Zhuo Jin regretted it.
He would rather see a beggar than the woman in front of him.
If Zhuo Jin had previously suspected that Ji Ru became the crown prince's concubine, it was because he was half-forced by the crown prince.
So after seeing Ji Ruxun coming today, Zhuo Jin completely stopped thinking about it. Just like this, it was clear that he had always known about his existence, and even knew that he was working for the prince.
If this is the case, then why has Ji Ru been unwilling to contact him?
Obviously, Ji Ru was afraid that he would be "a toad that wants to eat swan meat" and that he would pester her and make her annoying to the prince.
For this reason, Ji Ru clearly knew that he had been caring about her very much in the past three years, yet Ji Ru was able to become a stranger who was so far away from her.
"Brother Jin..." When he saw Zhuo Jin who was almost the same as in his memory, Ji Ru's eyes suddenly turned red.
You know, after Ji's family disappeared, Ji Ru spent a year wandering around, like a rootless weed, allowing others to bully him.
If she hadn't been smart, she wouldn't have been able to keep her virginity for the prince. The more so, how could she not be filled with emotion when she saw the old people from her past, or even the people who existed like relatives.
"Based on your appearance, you must be married, right? If so, who is your husband's family and how should I call you?"
Zhuo Jin asked slightly sarcastically, "Mrs. Ru is just a concubine. How can such a person directly take the husband's surname?"
Sure enough, upon hearing Zhuo Jin's words, a look of embarrassment appeared on Ji Ru's face. She was only called Mrs. Ru, and because she was an outsider, even her last name could not be mentioned.
"Brother Jin, I'm sorry for you..." Ji Ru's face quickly returned to normal, and then his tears fell like broken beads one by one. It looked very beautiful.
In the past three years, Zhuo Jin, who has seen a lot of the world, is not the first time he has seen a woman cry, and she cried so beautifully.
Zhuo Jin even knows that in order to please men, some women cry so fast and cry beautifully. This is something that they have practiced countless times in front of the mirror before they are familiar with it.
