Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous
Chapter 124 Support
"Are you crazy?"
Ji Zhen looked up from the engagement book and her brows furrowed for a moment.
Ji Zhen didn't expect Yu Min to say such a thing, inexplicably tying Yu Jingxi's fate to hers.
What did Yu Min think of her? And what did he think of Yu Jingxi and Yu Bojun?
"What do you mean I don't want him? He is a human being. He is your son! He is not a toy that can be manipulated by others."
Ji Zhen couldn't suppress her anger, and her voice grew louder. Yu Min sat opposite her, looking at her with angry eyes, not caring about her impoliteness at all, just leaning back in his chair, and asked curiously:
"Why, you're speaking up for Jingxi like this, are you attracted to him?"
Ji Zhen was so angry at Yu Min's casual words that she even began to doubt whether Yu Jingxi was Yu Min's son. How could she say such cold-blooded and heartless words so casually?
She pressed the wound on her chest that seemed to be about to burst, took a deep breath, and said to Yu Min patiently:
"Jingxi is a man of extraordinary talent and beauty, and is proficient in all six arts. He is gentle, quiet, and kind, and never fights with others. He is only sixteen years old this year. In such a prime time, how could the Marquis push him into the pit of fire like Wang Yan, who was born a soldier, and make him his concubine?
Even if I married Bojun, I would have had two husbands. How could I be a good match for Jingxi? He is your biological son. How could you bear to see him being thrown into the dark? Don’t you feel sorry for him at all? "
"What's the use of feeling sorry?"
Ji Zhen's words hit Yu Min's sore spot. The smile on her face faded, and her eyes, which looked 80% like Yu Bojun's, became cold and fierce. She pinched a jujube, snorted coldly, and said:
"Jingxi is different from Yu Bojun. Although he was born in a marquisate, he is the second son, neither the eldest nor the legitimate son. Just because of this, in Nanyue, no one from a family that is equal to my loyal and brave marquisate will marry him as the principal.
So what if he is both talented and beautiful?
Even if I'm lucky enough to find a girl from a noble family who doesn't care about the legitimate son or the illegitimate son willing to marry him as the legitimate wife, I still have to consider her status and whether she can protect Jingxi. Otherwise, with Jingxi's talent and appearance, I'm afraid my poor daughter-in-law will be killed."
"How could this be?"
Ji Zhen was shocked by Yu Min's words. This was something she had never thought of.
"How can this not be the case?"
Yu Min took a deep look at Ji Zhen's chest wound wrapped in white cloth, snorted coldly, and continued:
"Why do you think Zhu Shaoxin dared to stab you in the palace? Isn't it because your Ji family is small and has been passed down for generations without any side branches? And your mother is gone, so there is no one to protect you?
Even if you have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, your generals are far away in the northwest and do not participate in the affairs of the court. If she stabbed you, even if the news spread to the northwest and someone was willing to avenge Zhu Shaoxin and her master Li Yuanzhen for your stabbing, you would have been dead long ago. "
In Yu Min's words, Zhu Shaoxin's words "If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being so powerful and having no one to protect you" rang in Ji Zhen's mind.
The scene of Zhu Shaoxin holding a dagger and stabbing her fiercely appeared before her eyes again. Ji Zhen couldn't help but lower her eyes, tightly grasping the armrest of the chair, with her back straight. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and gritted her teeth and said:
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Marquis. Ji Zhen believes that he can still protect himself."
"But Jingxi didn't."
Yu Min interrupted Ji Zhen without any hesitation. There was no more joking in her eyes when she looked at Ji Zhen. She said slowly:
"Men in Nanyue always follow their wives. Jingxi is in the Marquis' Mansion, and I can still protect him. Once he gets married, even I can't interfere. But you are different, Xiao Zhenzhen. You are the Prince of Qingyan, who holds military power and guards the gate of Nanyue.
You had no backer before, so those low-ranking characters dared to plot against you. Now, if you marry my two sons, I will be your backer. I will definitely send you to a position where no one dares to bully you anymore, how about it? "
The wind blew through the glazed wind chimes under the eaves, bringing the sweet floral scent and crisp tinkling sounds into the suddenly quiet room.
The slanting sunlight fell on Yu Min's no longer young face, clearly illuminating the fine wrinkles between her furrowed brows.
At this moment, Ji Zhen suddenly understood one thing: perhaps Yu Min never intended to let Yu Jingxi marry Wang Yan.
The reason why Yu Min told Yu Jingxi that she wanted to marry him to Wang Yan as a concubine was that she calculated that Yu Jingxi would come to her.
How cruel! Not only did he plot against her, he even plotted against his own son.
Want to send her to a position where no one dares to bully her? In this world, what position no one dares to bully?
The throne?
Even though Li Yuanying and Li Yuanzhen were both in prison, and even though Li Yuanzhen's position as the crown princess was abolished, there was still the second princess Li Yuanmei who could take charge of the situation. How could she, a princess of a different surname, have such delusions? I really don't know if she, Yu Min, is crazy, or if she, Ji Zhen, is crazy!
Absolutely ridiculous!
Ji Zhen looked at Yu Min speechlessly, his eyes gradually turned cold, and he slowly said:
"The world is bustling with people, all for profit. The pursuit of fame and fortune has existed since ancient times, who can escape it? We all work in the same court, and in fact, there is no question of who is scheming against whom. We all rely on our abilities and serve our respective masters. But there is one thing I don't understand, why must the Marquis have to have me?"
Ji Zhen looked at Yu Min deeply and said self-deprecatingly:
"As the Marquis said, my foundation is shallow, and I only have a few hundred thousand soldiers. If His Majesty asks me one day and the military power is handed over, I will be nothing. By then, I am afraid it would be better for Wang Yan to have His Royal Highness Xian Yao to protect her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Min sneered contemptuously:
"What use is Xian Yao, that idiot, to me?"
However, before Yu Min and Ji Zhen could say anything else, they heard the servant's voice outside the door:
"Your Highness, the second son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery, Yu Jingxi, has sent a letter requesting to see you."
Yu Jingxi? What is he doing here at this time?
Ji Zhen immediately looked at Yu Min, but unexpectedly, Yu Min's brows were even tighter than before. Obviously, she didn't know Yu Jingxi would come. In this case, she would meet him instead.
"welcome."
Ji Zhen straightened her dress, slightly covering the white cloth on her chest, and asked the servants to bring new tea and snacks.
She didn't know what Yu Jingxi liked to eat, so she asked the servants to bring some sweet, salty, and neutral food, and they almost filled up the small table in the room. It looked a bit messy, but the sweet aroma of the food diluted the almost freezing atmosphere in the room.
Yu Min frowned as she watched Ji Zhen busying around, and couldn't help asking:
"There is food in my house, and my son won't starve. What are you doing?"
Ji Zhen blushed and said to Yu Min rather embarrassedly:
"I don't know what Jingxi likes to eat, so I put some of each snack in there and let him try them all."
"I'm his biological mother, why don't you ask me?"
Yu Min pinched a piece of milk puff pastry and asked. Ji Zhen didn't believe that Yu Min knew such trivial things, but she had to be patient and asked:
"May I ask, Lord Marquis, what does Jingxi like to eat?"
"I don't know. His father is the one who takes care of him. How can I have the time to ask this?"
Yu Min answered confidently, picked up a piece of milk puff pastry and tasted it, nodded with satisfaction, but teased Ji Zhen and said:
"All I know is that the treasures in my herbal medicine storehouse are about to be moved to your house by that kid."
Ji Zhen was so embarrassed by what Yu Min said that her face turned red and she quickly lowered her head to cover her cheeks.
Yu Jingxi followed the attendant and lifted the curtain to enter the room. He saw his mother sitting on a chair, looking at Ji Zhen with a half-smile. But Ji Zhen lowered her head, covered her face, and leaned on the chair.
The thin figure could not bear the clothes. The white cloth on the chest that Ji Zhen had deliberately covered accidentally revealed a corner, which was particularly glaring against the red clothes. It hurt his eyes, and his feet softened. He knelt on the ground with a plop, and walked two steps to Yu Min's front, and said in a trembling voice:
"Mother, I was wrong. I am willing to marry Lord Wang, the Minister of War. Please go back home and don't embarrass His Highness."
