MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 197 Beat people up
Du Jingyi was not afraid of being laughed at, so he stretched himself, got up and got off the bed.
Cherry helped her put on her shoes, then picked up the medicine bowl and left.
Generally, she would not wait in the room when Shang Ji was around. This performance made Shang Ji very satisfied.
One is that he doesn't like maids who like to show off, and always feels that their intentions are not right.
Secondly, he didn't like having someone standing next to him when he was talking to his wife. It always felt like he was spying on military affairs.
Hence, Cherry's understanding of the rules made Shang Ji feel that this maid knew the rules very well.
After getting off the couch, the couple sat under the bright window.
There are also a few leisure books and calligraphy practice posts on the red sandalwood table, which the couple used to pass the time.
It happened that the word "wang" was written on the post, which immediately reminded Du Jingyi of the post sent by the Wei family.
So he opened his mouth and said.
“General, should we accept this post from the Wei family, but should we go or not?”
At the housewarming banquet of the General's Mansion, no post was sent directly to the Wei family. This is something everyone in Sui'an City knows.
What the Wei family did was really a disgrace to the General's Mansion.
It seems that they are grand and don't care about past grudges, but they will build a memorial arch for themselves.
Unfortunately, Shang Ji never did this, so he said it calmly.
"Let Xing Zhao and Heping'er take things for a walk. What are we going to do? Anyway, it's not to perform for us."
He never showed mercy when speaking, especially when facing the Wei family and the Duke's mansion.
Hence, Du Jingyi also had a rough idea of what he meant by singing opera.
The Wei family’s thoughts are clearly revealed.
Wei Jialian wanted to find a good family for her when she was showing off her hairdos to guests.
99% of these so-called good families come from the royal family.
Given Wei Jialian's identity and current reputation in Sui'an City, Du Jingyi felt that it was easy to say anything else, and it was best not to target the prince.
Otherwise, if the Wei family really becomes the prince's support, they will inevitably become disgusted with each other in the future.
"Isn't the general afraid that the Wei family may have their thoughts on the prince?"
Speaking of which, the prince is now in his mid-twenties. Although he is a little older, for Wei Jialian, it is a good match.
At the moment, it looks like she is a concubine, but the prince's concubine may have the opportunity to become a concubine or a noble concubine in the future.
So, Du Jingyi has reason to believe that the Wei family is willing to do this.
After all, isn’t this how Mrs. Shang, a descendant of the Wei family, climbed to the position of Princess Fu?
As Princess Fu's direct cousin, I'm afraid Wei Jialian's thoughts are not pure.
Unexpectedly, Shang Ji smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm.
“With Prime Minister Guo here, this matter would be impossible.”
"How to say?"
“The people of the Wei family are not pure of heart. Prime Minister Guo once had a big fight with Taiwei Wei.”
Du Jingyi raised his eyebrows. She had never heard of this matter, so she looked at Shang Ji with interest, wanting to hear the whole story.
Shang Ji saw the gossipy expression on her face, chuckled and said.
“My husband also knows that my wife is curious, but this expression should be restrained to prevent our children from being as gossipy as you in the future.”
“I don’t believe it anymore. Isn’t this news obtained from the general’s gossip?”
Du Jingyi hit the nail on the head. Indeed, at Shang Ji's age, he would not have experienced the confrontation between Prime Minister Guo and Wei Taiwei.
So, these old things must have come from something said by an elder of the Gu family.
Hence, Shang Ji gently scratched the tip of her nose and couldn't help but said lovingly.
“Only you are clever.”
"This is what my third uncle told me. Several cousins were there at the time. He said that he accidentally bumped into me one time when he went to Guo's house to deliver something to Mrs. Guo on behalf of my grandmother. Prime Minister Guo and Taiwei Wei were having a big headache at home. Fight."
“Even though Prime Minister Guo is a powerful civil servant, his body is not weak. If a fight breaks out, even two or three people will not be able to hold him back. Naturally, Lieutenant Wei will be beaten up with a bruised nose and a swollen face.”
“Huh? Why?”
"I don't know about this, and my third uncle didn't say anything. But I guess it was Wei Taiwei who came up with some bad idea that made Prime Minister Guo very angry, so he got into a fight."
Prime Minister Guo? Extremely annoyed? A fight?
Du Jingyi couldn't imagine that scene in his mind.
After all, Prime Minister Guo has an air of immortality, and he looks gentle and elegant.
Du Jingyi has always felt that it was no problem for him to be able to speak and debate the civil and military affairs of the entire court, but this time he beat people and beat them until their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen. It was really unexpectedly powerful.
Thinking of this, Du Jingyi couldn't help but smile.
"It's a pity. It would be great if I were here. I must see how Wei Taiwei was defeated."
Shang Ji also said with a smile when he heard what she said.
“What Madam said, I also told my third uncle the day I became my husband. Do you know how he responded to me?”
“How did you reply?”
“The third uncle said that my dreams are nonsense.”
…
Du Jingyi didn’t know how to answer for a moment. These people in the army are really...
It's so informal.
The atmosphere was full of embarrassment. Seeing this, Du Jingyi let out an embarrassed chuckle and changed the topic to something else.
"Since the prince's path is unavailable, then whose idea will the Wei family take? The fourth prince? Or the seventh prince?"
“I haven’t seen it, but aren’t there still a few princes and princes?”
Hearing what his husband said, Du Jingyi kept thinking about the candidates in his mind.
Judging from the day of the housewarming party, in her eyes, both the Crown Prince Deok and the Crown Prince Bin were both good.
There is also a young master named Pianpian, who was born to the concubine Pang of King Min.
She was not sure about the reputation of the three people among the people, but judging from their behavior that day, the three of them were still very impressed.
Especially Prince Xun, in her opinion, he was the coolest person among the people who came that day.
Neither fighting nor rushing, neither rushing nor slowing down. Although he did not speak much, he stood upright like a green pines and cypresses. Standing behind King Bin, he showed a gentle smile from time to time.
Such a person must be kind to his wife no matter who he marries.
Therefore, for a moment, she felt that it would be a good idea for Xue Niang to be married to this person.
Shang Ji obviously had no interest in who Wei Jialian would choose as her husband, so he didn't bother to guess.
The royal family is not stupid anyway. Choosing the Wei family means facing off against the prince and the Guo family.
No one is tired of living and has to find trouble for himself.
So, it is not they who have a headache in this matter, but the Wei family and those who want to show their good will.
Du Jingyi also deeply agreed with this matter, so he didn’t ask too many questions.
