The weather was getting hotter. Huang Zhiwang had handed the case files to the emperor seven days ago, but after such a long time, the emperor did not ask about Ji Cheng again.
This made Jiang Xing smell a hint of disadvantage.
Just as he was about to go find Huang Zhiwang, he came across a letter delivered by Feixing.
"Your Highness!" Fei Xing rushed in. "Express delivery from Longchuan, eight hundred miles away!"
Jiang Xing took the letter immediately.
He finished reading the letter, looked up and asked, "Where is the princess?"
Fei Xing thought he wanted to share the news with Lu Xuan, so he lowered his head and smiled, "Didn't the princess say she was going back to Wu Garden to check accounts today? Your Highness, you are really a bit clingy..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Xing immediately knocked him on the head: "Let's go to Wuyuan!"
He did have some news to discuss with Lu Xuan, and it was big news!
Lu Xuan wrote back saying that he had indeed suspected that there was something else behind the death of the late Empress Jingyi fifteen years ago, and was about to investigate thoroughly, but was repeatedly obstructed, so he had no way to make a fuss!
However, he did not expect that this disturbance would cause dissatisfaction among the court officials. In order to quell the resentment of the Lu family, the court deliberately sent him to fight against Annan!
But there is something more urgent!
He ordered Feixing, "Go to the stable and get a fast horse. I want to hurry to Wu Garden!"
"Yes!"
The heat was scorching, the sun was high in the sky, the streets were deserted, and Jiang Xing was riding his horse at full speed.
As soon as Jiang Xing arrived at Wu Garden, he hurriedly asked, "Where is the princess?"
The maid at the door said respectfully: "The princess left half an hour ago. Lord Ji made an appointment with her to go to Zui Jiang Yue!"
Jiang Xing's face was as cold as ice: "Lord Ji?!"
"Yes!" The little maid looked confused: "The princess said that if it weren't for Lord Ji, she wouldn't go!"
Jiang Xing's heart skipped a beat. Such a fast movement!
In Zui Jiangyue's elegant pavilion, Ji Xiangli was waiting for Lu Xuan to arrive.
This morning he received a letter from Jiezi, who went to investigate Song Wu's identity. He asked her out to get to the bottom of the matter!
Lu Xuan pushed open the door of the Accord lightly.
Ji Xiangli sent someone to tell her that he wanted to talk to her about Ji Cheng.
He dared to meet her in person. She wanted to see what this old man wanted to do!
"Master Jihou!" Lu Xuan greeted him first.
However, the moment Ji Xiangli stood up and looked at her, his whole body seemed to be frozen.
Is this Song Wu? !
Song Wu has grown up in the past few years, and he actually looks like this? ! !
No need to check, he doesn't even need to explore anymore!
Ever since Song Jingcheng was demoted, he has not liked the people of the Song family very much.
From then on, he had fewer opportunities to meet Lu Xuan. Later, Si Luan grew up and he hardly saw her in recent years!
It turns out that he really looks like Lu Lingchuan!
How similar she is to the late queen!
The information Longchuan sent back early in the morning was true, it was actually true!
Lu Xuan looked at his face filled with surprise, "Why are you looking at me like that, Lord Ji?"
But the moment she asked the question, Lu Xuan sensed something was wrong!
In her previous life, because her life was exchanged by Song Chuchu, her appearance gradually merged with Song Chuchu's, so she deviated from her original appearance and was not discovered by the people of the Ji family to be similar to the former queen of the Lu family.
But now... I'm afraid I can't hide it anymore!
She suppressed her inner feelings and asked calmly, "My Lord, Master Ji is imprisoned for murdering the prince. Why is the Marquis not looking for the prince to admit his fault, but looking for me, the princess?"
Ji Xiangli lowered his head and gave a cold smile: "Is it because the princess didn't marry Si Luan that she secretly helped Prince Jin and attacked my Ji family?"
Lu Xuan couldn't help but sneer: "The Ji family thinks too highly of me!"
These words came out almost without thinking, and Ji Xiangli couldn't help but look dark.
But in his impression, Lu Xuan has always been deeply in love with Ji Bozhou, so he still feels that she is resentful at this moment: "Si Luan has always regretted why he married Chu Chu and not you! In fact, he has always been concerned about you in his heart! You have a lot of skills. If you were in my Ji family, you would definitely have a bright future..."
ability?
Lu Xuan vaguely felt that Lord Ji might know something, but judging from the way he used emotion as an entry point, he felt that he seemed to have some misunderstandings about the relationship between him and Ji Bozhou!
She smiled and said, "I don't have any ability. It's all just the prince's praise! He gave me status and position, so I have ability. If he didn't praise me, it would be the same as before! Now I am the Princess of Jin, so the Marquis should be careful when he says these things!"
Lord Ji laughed dryly, "Don't be so modest, Princess! I'm also reminding you that Cheng'er will come out! Following Prince Jin in vain will only lead to you being implicated in the future..."
Lu Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Let's talk about the future later. The Marquis' Mansion has connections everywhere, so we should wait until Master Ji comes out before we talk about it, right?"
As they were talking, there was a thud and a familiar figure rushed in.
Lu Xuan stood up.
Jiang Xing?
As soon as Jiang Xing saw Ji Xiangli, his expression suddenly turned cold. He grabbed Lu Xuan's hand and said, "My Lord, if you want to invite the princess, you must have at least informed me beforehand, right? Do you have me in your eyes when you meet me directly like this?"
His voice involuntarily took on a cold, stern tone. "Or perhaps, Lord Ji's attempt to murder me once wasn't enough, and he felt he should also do the Princess?!"
Ji Xiangli was immediately furious when he saw Jiang Xing, the ignorant playboy, scolding him as soon as he arrived.
But you still have to work on your appearance.
So he stood up, suppressing his displeasure and said, "No, Your Highness, you are too kind! Today, I wanted to apologize to Your Highness through the princess, but I didn't expect Your Highness to come here in person..."
Jiang Xing sneered: "Master Ji, a relative of the emperor, actually dared to touch the royal family. He is really bold! But Master Ji said he wanted to apologize to me, so that's not impossible!"
He yelled outside: "Waiter!"
The gods were fighting, and the waiter came in apprehensively: "My lord, my lord!"
"Send two hundred jars of wine. Since the Marquis said he wants to apologize to me, then drink these two hundred jars and it will be considered an apology!"
The waiter looked embarrassed: "This..."
Jiang Xing shouted sternly: "Hurry up and go!"
The waiter nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes..."
Not long after the waiter left, jars of white wine were delivered to the Accord one after another.
Lu Xuan looked at him in disbelief. If he really did this, wouldn’t it be a public show of hostility?
Jiang Xing didn't care about that. Seeing the wine coming up, he put on a playful smile and said, "If you really want to apologize, just drink up all the wine! The prince and the princess will not accompany you..."
After saying that, he pulled Lu Xuan up and went downstairs angrily.
Looking at the wine jars piled high in front of him, Lord Ji was furious and slammed the table, "What a dandy Jiang Xing! How dare you use your dandy bullying tactics on me!"
The attendant outside the door came in immediately.
"My Lord! Then these wines..."
Ji Xiangli looked at Jiang Xing dragging Lu Xuan away downstairs, and his anger subsided in an instant.
A scornful smile appeared on his face. "A playboy who doesn't know his place dares to speak so arrogantly to me. There's really nothing to worry about!"
He looked at the attendants in front of him and said, "Have these wines taken away! A useless prince dares to commit crimes and bully me. I won't touch him for the time being. There will be plenty of opportunities to deal with him later!"
