After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide

"Love is not as important as life?"

The two girls looked at each other again, and Gan Tang asked doubtfully, "Is there any necessary connection between the two?"

Shang Tingli opened his eyes and smiled sweetly: "It's nothing, don't worry about it."

Seeing that she didn't want to say more, the two maids tactfully shut their mouths.

When I returned to Xinyuan, I unexpectedly found that Ke Xin had not gone out. He was lying on the chaise longue under the pomegranate tree in the yard, looking very comfortable.

This is exactly what Shang Tingli wants.

Seeing her come back, Ke Xin was quite surprised. He sat up and asked, "Why are you back so soon? Didn't you have lunch outside?"

He thought that when she went out, she would eventually visit the Yi Zhong Hou Mansion.

Shang Tingli walked over, bowed, and then said with a smile: "Come back to find the prince."

She knew that Yu Jing's so-called "apology" was just a hidden agenda, but she still agreed to Yu Lanxi's request. It meant that she had already thought of a solution - to ask Ke Xingchen to accompany her. In this way, no matter what the result was, Yu Jing would at least apologize to her in public. As for other things, she never did anything without certainty, after all, she cherished her life.

Ke Xin smiled and raised his eyebrows: "What do you want from me? Do you really think of me as a money bag?"

"..."

[You think too much. I have some money myself, okay? But if you are willing to be my money bag, I can accept it.]

Shang Tingli curled his lips and looked at him: "Are you willing, my lord?"

Ke Xin said: "You wish."

Shang Tingli: “Oh.”

[I knew it, so why are you talking nonsense? ]

Ke Xin put away his nonchalant look and asked seriously, "What happened?"

Shang Tingli pursed his lips and paused for a moment, his eyes fell on his jade-like and golden face, his expression extremely serious.

“Can I trust you?” she asked.

Ke Xin asked back: "Why not?"

[Why not? Of course it's because you are a member of the Fourth Prince Party, and I am a member of the Prince Party in spirit! Our hearts are not in the same camp, so how can I trust you directly? ]

After scolding him in his heart, Shang Tingli came to his senses and seemed to have asked a nonsense question.

[Besides, what's the point of me being a princeling? I can't divorce. This life is really rough. Why is my life so hard! ]

[In this case, no matter whether you are from the Fourth Prince's Party or the Second Prince's Party, you must join me in the Crown Prince's Party in the future, otherwise we will both die young.]

[There is a long way to go. There is a long way to go. 】

Ke Xin touched the tip of his nose.

Shang Tingli sighed, then looked at him eagerly: "My Lord, you won't let me down, right?"

Ke Xin deliberately remained silent.

Shang Tingli was indeed anxious.

[Why don't you say anything? He is indeed a cold-blooded and heartless person. No wonder he has ignored Yu Lanxi all his life.]

“……?” I didn’t know, and suddenly a black pot was thrown at me.

Ke Xin secretly complained, but said calmly: "What do you want to do?"

[Alas, whether I can believe it or not, I can only choose to believe it now, because you are the prince. ]

Ke Xin: “…”

Then I heard Shang Tingli say: "It's not that I want to do anything, but I met with my cousin Lan Xi before, and she told me a lot of things. She also said that my uncle really hopes that I can go back. My uncle said that everything before was a misunderstanding..."

Ke Xin didn't have the patience to listen to her and interrupted her coldly: "Do you also think it's a misunderstanding?"

Shang Tingli was stunned.

[Huh? How is that possible? This can't be a misunderstanding! But, I really don't know what he's up to.]

Ke Xin said: "I don't think it's a misunderstanding. What kind of misunderstanding is worth an uncle trying so hard to throw dirty water on his niece?"

Shang Tingli agreed strongly: "I also think this may be an excuse."

Ke Xin looked at her: "So what do you think?"

"Princess, please listen to me first."

"Row."

Shang Tingli continued with what he had said before: "My uncle said it was a misunderstanding, and he wanted me to go back and clear up all the misunderstandings so that he could apologize to me. I thought, since he wants to apologize, then I have to go."

[Whether it's sincere or not, I have to go and listen. My uncle's attitude has changed so much, there must be something behind it.]

[Whether it's for that false apology or to find out the truth behind it, I choose to go. ]

Ke Xin was about to scold her for being as stupid as a pig. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that it was a "Hongmen Banquet", but she insisted on going in. Wasn't that just throwing her head away for nothing? It was not until he heard her inner voice that he understood what she meant.

Oh, so I didn't go there to get killed. Well, I still came back to ask for his help, I'm not too stupid.

"So..." Shang Tingli took two steps forward, bent down to grab the hem of his clothes and shook it, with bright and beautiful eyes: "The prince may accompany me?"

Ke Xin met that eager gaze, and saw a hint of flattering in the clear eyes, which made his heart move.

Bad thoughts came to his mind. He raised his chin slightly and glanced at her, with the corners of his lips slightly raised, and said lightly: "Beg me."

Shang Tingli: “…”

[Save me, how can there be such a bad person? ]

She had a bit of a breakdown.

Ke Xin looked at her leisurely, in a good mood.

It feels so good to tease a person who appears to be well-behaved but is actually not docile, and then watch her show a collapsed expression.

[Isn't it just someone who can control the situation? In addition to your prince, there are also the princess and the princess, and at worst there are a few young masters and young ladies...]

Ke Xin, who was originally secretly happy, suddenly felt unhappy when he heard this.

She gave up without asking for help? She also wanted to go to her mother and Ling Yun? Even Xiao Wu and the others?

Shang Tingli thought about it and felt that it was really feasible, so she let go of his clothes, bowed to him, smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, sir."

[Please? Pah.]

【Who indulges your bad temper? 】

She didn't realize that gradually, she seemed not to be so afraid of this cheap husband anymore. She was able to handle things well and could say "no" to him.

Shang Tingli turned around politely.

A big hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, and her cheap husband's voice came from behind: "It's really boring, I can accompany you to the Yi Zhong Hou Mansion to sit for a while."

Shang Tingli turned around and looked at him: "Are you serious, my lord?" She seemed to be hesitant to speak, "Actually, it's okay if you don't want to go. Ling Yun should be free, and it won't be rude for me to go with her."

[It is perfect to ask Ling Yun to do this. After all, if my mother were to come forward, the nature of this matter would change.]

Ke Xin didn't look at her. He put his other hand to his lips and coughed lightly: "It's a bit boring today, it doesn't hurt to accompany you out." But he didn't answer whether he wanted to go or not.

"Ok."

Shang Tingli tilted his head and looked at him with a smile: "So let's set off now?"

Ke Xin lowered his eyes and glanced at her: "If you go there now, aren't you afraid that you won't have enough for lunch?"

He remembered that the last time she went to the Yi Zhong Marquis's residence for dinner, she was so angry with the family before she could even eat a few bites of food.

There is no guarantee that history will not repeat itself this time.

When Shang Tingli heard this, he immediately felt that this made sense, and hurriedly said, "You are right, then let's have lunch first and go over in the afternoon."

[Anyway, they are the ones who should apologize, wait, what's wrong with us! ]

It was still the middle of the Si hour, not yet noon. Shang Tingli went straight back to his bedroom to read his storybook, and did not go to the main hall to eat until noon.

Ke Xin had already asked people to prepare the food.

While they were enjoying their meal, some of them could no longer sit still.

……

The main hall of Marquis Yi Zhong’s Mansion.

"Didn't you say that she would be here soon?" Yu Jing, who was sitting at the top, asked with a serious face.

Yu Lanxi, who was sitting at the bottom, curled her lips and said, "That's how she replied to me. I can't just tie her up, right?"

This statement seems to be a sarcasm.

Pan Yaying glared at her, then turned to Yu Jing and said, "Master, calm down. That girl always keeps her word. Since she said she would come, she must have come. Maybe she is having lunch and will come in the afternoon."

Yu Jing remained silent.

Pan Yaying winked at her daughter, and Yu Lanxi spoke again: "Dad, I think she will come after dinner. It's not a good idea to wait like this. Let's go eat first, right?"

Pan Yaying held her forehead with her hands after hearing these words. Did she want her to talk like this? Zhen'er was asking for trouble.

She meant for her to say some of the things that the orphan girl said, but she just spoke her own thoughts.

After all, her daughter was her own. Pan Yaying sighed and tried to make amends, "What Lan Jieer meant was that we should have enough energy to wait for Jieer Ting to come over after we have eaten our fill. Master, we can't have Jieer Ting come over with a full stomach and have to watch us eat, right?"

Yu Jing waved his hand: "Let's eat first."

At this time, it is unlikely that the niece will arrive at this time.

The group went to the dining room.

After dinner, without hearing the doorman come to report, Yu Jing took Ji Zhang to the study.

After the father-in-law and son-in-law left, Pan Yaying took Yu Lanxi to her own yard.

As soon as she sat down, Yu Lanxi couldn't help but complain, "Mom, do you think Dad doesn't love me anymore?"

"Shh-"

Pan Yaying glared at her and winked at her nanny, asking her to take everyone outside and close the door.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Yu Lanxi pursed her lips, feeling very aggrieved: "Did I say something wrong? Ever since I said I wanted to exchange my marriage, he has been scolding me all the time and doesn't care about me at all."

She complained: "He loves Yu Lingling more now."

"What? Now you know what a foolish thing you did?" Pan Yaying said, "Why are you comparing yourself with Lingling? How can you compare? She is a murderer."

Yu Lanxi was confused: "What stupid thing did I do?" She rolled her eyes, "Then Dad should abandon her. She's just a murderer, why bother to protect her? It's just that Dad loves her."

She felt sad.

In the past, it was obvious that her father loved her more, and even if she wanted stars, her father would be happy to pick them for her. But now, her father looked at her with a look of disgust, and no longer had the love he once had.

Pan Yaying said with a headache: "Do you really think that your change of marriage is a good thing? Then take a look, has your husband brought you any benefits? Does he make others respect you, or can he keep you well fed and clothed?"

"He has none of these, so what's so good about him?"

Yu Lanxi frowned and protested: "Mom, it doesn't matter if you don't understand now, you will understand one day."

Pan Yaying laughed: "I'll just wait and see if that day comes."

"Hey, didn't I tell you? Ji Zhang has great potential. He will definitely earn me a first-class imperial title in the future." Yu Lanxi came over to her, shook her arm and said coquettishly, "Just wait and see."

"What about the first-rank imperial decree?"

Pan Yaying said disdainfully: "But he is still a fifth-rank general and can't even enter the court."

Yu Lanxi: “…”

She consoled him, "How can anyone become rich overnight? He was able to transfer from a guard to a barracks, and even be promoted to a fifth-rank official in one fell swoop. This is already an excellent ability."

After all, at this time in his previous life, Ji Zhang had not yet been promoted. I only heard that he was transferred to the barracks, and I'm afraid he was still doing hard labor in the barracks.

In comparison, her life is better than Shang Tingli's in his previous life.

Pan Yaying was too lazy to pay attention to her.

Yu Lanxi leaned close to her ear and said, "Ji Zhang is the Fourth Prince's man. With a gentle man like the Fourth Prince, are you still worried that you won't be able to rise to prominence in the future?"

Not only Ji Zhang is the Fourth Prince's man, but her father is too. In this life, their family will definitely rise to great heights.

As for Shang Tingli? He will be erased from the public eye in five years, so don't bother with him.

"Ji Zhang will definitely be promoted again soon, so you don't have to worry."

Pan Yaying chuckled and said, "If that's true, I can rest assured." If not, who can rest assured?

After all, she is my daughter. How can I not worry about her?

But seeing her mysteriously confident look, Pan Yaying couldn't say anything to discourage her and could only sigh helplessly.

Let’s hope so.

……

In the study.

Ji Zhang stood by and ground ink for Yu Jing. Neither of them spoke, and the air was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

It was not until Yu Jing finished writing a piece of paper that he opened the topic and called out, "A Zhang."

Ji Zhang clasped his fists and said, "My son-in-law is here."

Yu Jing put down the pen in his hand, turned around and looked at his son-in-law in front of him.

The man was about eight feet tall, with a handsome and elegant appearance, but he didn't look like a general.

Yu Jing sighed.

In terms of family background, the man in front of him could not compare to the prince of a prefecture. In terms of appearance, he was not as handsome as the prince of Ren. He actually didn't know why his daughter was attracted to this son-in-law. If there was any advantage to this son-in-law, it was probably his potential.

They are all the Fourth Prince's people now, working for him, and their contributions will surely be indispensable when he ascends the throne in the future. Thinking of this, Yu Jing could accept this son-in-law, and he liked him more and more.

Yu Jing patted Ji Zhang on the shoulder and said only one sentence: "Do your job well, and the Fourth Prince will not treat us unfairly."

Ji Zhang said: "Yes, my son-in-law saves it."

"Knock Knock Knock-"

There was a knock on the door, and Yu Jing said, "Come in."

Butler He hurried in and clasped his fists and said, "Master, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess are here."

Yu Jing raised his eyebrows: "Who did you say is here?"

Butler He repeated, "It's Prince Ren and his wife who are here."

Yu Jing's heart ached and he almost vomited blood: "She is really capable!"

He asked her to come back, but he didn't ask her to call that unruly prince along!
