MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 121 Arrange early
Chapter 121 Early arrangements
Shang Ji is not stupid, so he doesn't know what Mrs. Wei is thinking.
"Mrs. Wei Kai has been coveting the position of Duke of the country for more than a day. It seems that she is going to be ruthless this time to support Shang Shilang."
Only if Shang Silang becomes the future Duke of the country, then Shang Zhihe can successfully succeed the young Duke.
Otherwise, the four houses and one lineage of Xiyuan will be considered useless.
“The general has a sharp eye.”
But how can everything in this world follow her mood?
She wanted to help her son ascend to the throne, but the Duke's Palace was the one they and his wife were bound to win. It would be left to Ping'er in the future. How could she succeed so easily?
So, Shang Ji looked at the chess game without any surprise, and then asked.
“She plans to poison?”
“It’s been quite quiet these past two days. I asked Mr. Liu to pay more attention to my father-in-law’s food and drink, and I didn’t find anything wrong.”
Du Jingyi shook his head, apparently dispelling this suspicion.
“That’s why I want to arrange for an accident. It’s the end of the year and it’s winter. If something happens to my father, we have to move. It’s really a matter of filial piety.”
“Well, that’s what I’m thinking too.”
Shang Jiluozi, and then said something.
"I will find a few people to protect my father secretly. You don't have to worry about this place. It's an auspicious day. If you can move forward, you can move forward. I don't want to step into the courtyard of the Duke's Mansion for a day. .”
Hearing him speak like this, Du Jingyi smiled and said.
"General, don't be anxious. Didn't we agree to clean up the whole house for Ping'er so that he can take over in the future? We have only left five rooms, and there are still three more."
“You want to deal with them?”
Shang Ji asked calmly without even raising his eyebrows.
Du Jingyi shook his head and said immediately.
"Since my father-in-law will have an accident, then our Dongyuan will naturally be in trouble. Otherwise, we will be sorry for Mrs. Wei's hard work next time."
“So you mean to borrow the east wind?”
"I have harmed Mrs. Wei, and I still want to take the opportunity to send away the person from the third house."
“How do you want me to cooperate?”
Du Jingyi was a little hesitant and did not continue what he said.
Shang Ji's chess piece didn't fall down, so he looked up at Du Jingyi and understood.
"I will make arrangements with my father. I won't really kill him, but it's okay to be slightly injured."
Du Jingyi wants this kind of effect, otherwise how can he deal with these people without blood?
It’s just that, after all, he is her husband’s father, so it would not be against the rules for her to speak.
She didn't want any conflict between the two of them to arise over this matter.
“General, don’t worry, after everything is taken care of, father-in-law’s ears will be clearer.”
"Um."
Shang Ji was not really hard-hearted and had resentment towards his father.
I blame him for being soft-spoken and sentimental, which caused my mother to live a miserable life in the back house.
But that doesn’t mean that he was really cruel enough to watch his father die after being plotted by Mrs. Wei.
The two played chess for most of the night, and finally they were so sleepy that they settled down.
That night, the wind in Ancheng was howling, seeming to drag the entire earth into winter at once.
Sure enough, early the next morning, there was flying snow in the sky.
It's not big, but you can see it after it falls a little bit.
The snow fell early this year. In previous years, it would not fall until the winter months, so it was only late October.
As a result, many farmers were caught off guard.
Hurry up and stuff the harvest into the cellar early, otherwise it will freeze outside and it will be difficult this winter. Farmers outside the city are busy, but there are many fewer people on the streets in the city than yesterday.
Perhaps because of the early snow, many people stayed at home and refused to go out.
Naturally, it also includes everyone in the government.
In the main room of Xitang Courtyard in Dongyuan, Shang Ji and Du Jingyi were sleeping hugging each other.
In the quiet morning, no one will disturb you near the main house.
The brocade quilt on the bed was thicker, and it was suitable for Du Jingyi to cover it alone, but now that Shang Ji is back, the heat makes her a little irritable.
Having had many dreams all night, I didn’t get much sleep.
Du Jingyi didn't fall asleep until it got a little dark, so he couldn't wake him up at this moment.
The habit that Shang Ji has developed over the years is that no matter when he goes to sleep, he always wakes up at the same time.
So after I opened my eyes, I looked around at Madam carefully and found that she had no intention of waking up, so I fell asleep again.
It was not until Du Jingyi slowly woke up that he woke up.
Tilted his head and saw his husband's face, Du Jingyi smiled.
She moved her body and wanted to get into his arms, but she accidentally touched a place she shouldn't have touched. She immediately turned her back to Shang Ji, not knowing what to say to make this embarrassing situation pass quickly.
On the contrary, Shang Liulang, the culprit who made people blush, laughed heartily and deliberately spoke in her ear.
“Madam, please don’t feel shy. It will be better if we have more opportunities to meet you in the future.”
His harsh explanation is better not to be said.
Du Jingyi used to be a little embarrassed, but now he is very shy.
She had never noticed this before.
One reason is that Shang Ji leaves early and comes back late. Most of the time, she is not awake, and the person next to her pillow has gone, leaving only some traces of tenderness.
Secondly, every time she woke up, she was just shy and would quickly let someone come in to help them wash up.
So naturally it was not discovered.
Today's attack scared her, and she thought it was because the general had not failed last night and would continue to do so today.
So he was so ashamed that his whole body turned red.
Shang Ji picked her up across the brocade quilt.
Such a big movement naturally frightened Du Jingyi, and he immediately spoke nervously.
“What is the general going to do?”
“Of course I’m waiting for my wife to take a bath and wash herself.”
"You... don't mess around! If this news gets out, how will I behave?"
Hearing this, Shang Ji smiled slyly, but he lost a lot of his usual seriousness.
It's more like a couple doing something slightly out of the ordinary, very calm.
"What are you afraid of? This courtyard is full of our people. If the news spreads, the whole courtyard will be searched again."
As he spoke, he hugged her directly and entered the ear room.
Maid Yingying had already heard the noise, and originally planned to come and make arrangements for her master before calling for her.
Who would have thought that the general would just carry him over.
She was really shocked, ashamed, and a little embarrassed.
Seeing that the master and the servant were competing with each other, their faces turned redder than rouge, Shang Ji stopped joking with him. He placed Du Jingyi on the imperial concubine's couch in the ear room and whispered something.
“If your husband’s hands and feet are clumsy and he hurts his wife later, you’d better let your maid serve you. I’ll go next door to wash up too.”
