Transmigrating to Female Supremacy: Husbands, Don’t Be Too Outrageous
Chapter 29 3 Husbands and 6 Attendants
Yu Jingxi didn't expect that when he was upset, he would actually speak out his true feelings. Yu Jingxi's face instantly turned red, and he hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything.
Ji Zhen didn't know what Yu Jingxi was objecting to when he suddenly spoke up. After all, what he and Zhao Youqing said had nothing to do with him.
But it was quite cute to see him blushing and trying to explain. But he was so embarrassed that his ears and face turned red. Ji Zhen couldn't stand it anymore, so she walked up to him, poured him a glass of sweet apricot wine, and comforted him:
"Come, have a drink first and then talk slowly if you have anything to say."
After that, he poured another glass of wine, waved to Zhao Youqing, and said with a smile:
"Come, have a taste of my sweet apricot wine. You were not feeling well a few days ago and didn't get to drink it. It's a coincidence that I'll make it up to you today."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Youqing did not bother to be polite with Ji Zhen. He bowed politely to express his gratitude, then lifted his robe and sat down next to Yu Bojun.
Ji Zhen was about to walk over to Zhao Youqing with the wine glass in hand to hand it to him, but Yu Jingxi grabbed her sleeve and asked:
"Your Highness, why do you want to be with one person for the rest of your life? It's against etiquette. Aren't you afraid of being criticized?"
Huh? This could be criticized. This was the first time Ji Zhen had heard of this!
Suddenly, Yu Jingxi grabbed her sleeve and she was unable to leave for a while, so she handed the wine cup to the maid beside her and asked her to pass it to Zhao Youqing.
Zhao Youqing took the white porcelain wine cup and held it in his hand. His eyes like inky stones coldly swept over Ji Zhen's sleeves that were being held by Yu Jingxi, and he spoke slowly and calmly:
"I didn't expect that Young Master Yu is so knowledgeable at such a young age, and has a deep understanding of marriage in South Vietnam."
Yu Bojun frowned when he heard this. Although he also felt that Yu Jingxi's words were inexplicable, it was not polite for an unmarried man to say that Ji Zhen would be together for life, and it was even more disrespectful. But Yu Jingxi was his brother after all, and he was the one who disciplined him personally, so it was not Zhao Youqing's turn to comment.
So his face turned cold, and he said to Zhao Youqing indifferently:
"Master Keqing is not from Nanyue, so he naturally doesn't know about our Nanyue affairs. Nanyue respects women and is proud of having multiple husbands and multiple daughters. In Nanyue, officials have three husbands and six concubines, which is the basic way of marriage. Even for ordinary people, one husband and one concubine is the minimum marriage standard. This kind of thing is known to everyone in Nanyue, from the 80-year-old man to the three-year-old child. Master Keqing is really making a fuss."
These words clearly showed a protective meaning, and Zhao Youqing did not comment. He just raised his hand, drank the sweet apricot wine in the glass, and listened to Yu Jingxi asking Ji Zhen:
"Your Highness is in a high position of power, how could you do something so unorthodox? If His Majesty knew about this, I'm afraid he would blame you."
Ji Zhen was shocked. She just wanted someone who would be with her wholeheartedly. How could this be considered a rebellious act?
"why?"
Ji Zhen's eyes widened, clearly indicating that she didn't understand.
Although Ji Zhen has lived in this world for eighteen years, she has been doing things that tease cats and dogs since she was a child. When she was a little older, she got into fights everywhere while others played tricks on her. When she was older, she went directly to the northwest, where she was on the battlefield, ready to fight at any time, sleeping in the snow and ice, and there was really no time to think about love.
In addition, General Dingyuan indulged her when she was young, and when she grew up, she died in battle. This directly led to Ji Zhen knowing nothing about the relationship between men and women in South Vietnam. All her cognition came from her own world of monogamy. So it is conceivable that Yu Jingxi's words shocked her.
"Your Highness is in a high position of power. You shouldn't be so selfish and reckless."
Yu Jingxi put another big hat on Ji Zhen's head, and Ji Zhen was completely dumbfounded. She looked at Yu Bojun for help, but he nodded very seriously and said:
"That's true. Although twenty male favorites is excessive, three husbands and six servants is the standard. Even if you are His Highness, you should not indulge in love and go beyond human ethics."
Although Ji Zhen's words "a lifetime of one couple" moved Yu Bojun, Yu Jingxi's words woke him up. As the Prince of Qingyan County, Ji Zhen had already received the Empress's approval for marriage, so how could she be so capricious about her marriage? For ordinary people, capriciousness might just be a small temper, but for the Prince of Qingyan County, the price of capriciousness might be a life.
She can't, and neither can he. This is fate.
Yu Bojun closed his eyes, feeling depressed. He raised his glass and drank the sweet apricot wine, but he only tasted bitterness. Zhao Youqing beside him sneered:
"I am not very talented, but I have read a few books and know a few words. I have never seen any book that regards loyalty as a heresy. It is really ridiculous."
Yu Bojun was already in a bad mood, so he couldn't bear to hear Zhao Youqing's sarcasm. He put the wine glass heavily on the table, frowned, and looked at Zhao Youqing coldly and said:
"Are you saying that the marriage customs of Nanyue are absurd, or are you saying that Nanyue is absurd? Is this the character of the princes raised by the royal family of Yan?"
When Ji Zhen heard Yu Bojun's words implying that Zhao Youqing was a hostage, she felt something was wrong and immediately interrupted him:
"Oh, it's my fault. I didn't think too much about it. Okay, okay, it's rare for You Qing to come. You didn't quarrel when you were little, so why are you quarreling now? Come on, I'll drink three cups as punishment. Stop quarreling and eat well!"
After that, Ji Zhen picked up the wine jug, poured himself three glasses of wine, and drank them all.
Seeing Ji Zhen like this, Yu Bojun and Zhao Youqing stopped talking. For a moment, the atmosphere in the flower hall was very awkward. However, after hearing what Ji Zhen said, Yu Jingxi became curious about the relationship between Yu Bojun and Zhao Youqing. He pulled Ji Zhen's sleeve and whispered:
"Your Highness, are my brother and the guest official very familiar with each other?"
Ji Zhen glanced at the two people who were eating seriously, and smiled and whispered to Yu Jingxi:
"Of course I am familiar with them. They are both my younger brothers! When we were little, they followed me to fight."
"Brother knows how to fight?"
Yu Jingxi was shocked. In his impression, Yu Bojun was a man of impeccable moral character except that he was a little ugly and a little stout, which did not conform to the aesthetics of Nanyue. How could he, the young marquis of the loyal and brave Marquis Mansion, fight with Ji Zhen?
When Ji Zhen saw that Yu Jingxi knew nothing, she immediately perked up and approached him, smiling as she began to expose Yu Bojun's past:
"Your brother used to have a lot of fun following me. He climbed trees to pick birds and went to rivers to catch fish. He did everything. Not only would he fight with me, but he would also cry when he lost a fight. His crying was particularly beautiful."
"Ji Zhen!"
Yu Bojun's eyelids jumped, and his grip on the wine glass tightened. Finally, when Ji Zhen said that he cried beautifully, he could no longer bear it and spoke to stop her. Ji Zhen smiled and blinked at him, and his face turned red.
Damn it! This woman might be born to be his nemesis.
