On the carriage back, Ji Qingyi asked Ji Wenli repeatedly.
"Second brother, the classmate you brought today... he... who is he?"
Ji Wenli was confused, "Who is that person? They are my classmates and my friends."
"No... no, I mean... um, whose son is he..." Ji Qingyi blushed with embarrassment, and it took him a long time to ask a complete sentence.
"Why do you ask?"
Ji Wenli didn't know why. Or maybe the eldest brother of the Ji family saw his sister's thoughts and said straight away, "Qingyi, do you have a crush on him?"
"No, no, brother, don't talk nonsense." However, the flushed face and evasive eyes seemed to be hiding something.
Ji Wenli suddenly realized, "Qingyi, you have fallen in love with Yan Qing! Hey, if you hadn't told me earlier, I would have introduced you to you! Yan Qing is a very good person. There are so many people in the Imperial College, and he is the right one." I have an appetite. Although I come from a peasant family, I have outstanding talents. I passed the junior Sanyuan exam in their state during the college examination! I am also very clean and self-sufficient. I don’t even have a maid around me, and I never mess around outside..."
Ji Wenli said a lot of good things about Yan Qing. In his opinion, one is his best friend and the other is his little sister. It would be great if they could get closer and closer.
Moreover, he really thinks highly of Yan Qing, whose character is impeccable. If his younger sister can marry him, he will definitely not let him down.
However, Ji Wenzhong interrupted him coldly, "Don't mess with the rules. Qingyi's parents have the final say on her marriage. Song Yanqing is very good. If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't have known that he was from a farm family. I thought he was a young man from a big family."
"That's right. His demeanor is even more outstanding than that of many young men from aristocratic families."
"But the problem is, no matter how outstanding your temperament is, you can't hide your background. His background is too poor, and he is still white. Do you think your parents will let Qingyi get married?"
Their father is the Minister of the Ministry of War and a second-rank official in the court. Qingyi is the only legitimate daughter. Their grandfather was the Duke of Zhenguo, and now his eldest uncle had been demoted to a noble title. Qingyi was also the Marquis's niece. The identity gap is too big.
Ji Wenli was unhappy, "What's the matter with his poor background? Heroes don't care about their origins. I dare say that this autumn, Yan Qing will definitely win the title!"
"After winning the title, I am just a judge." Ji Wenzhong said very calmly.
"What about his high school next spring? With his knowledge, he will be not only the top pick but also the top three!"
Ji Wenzhong was noncommittal, "Let's wait until he gets the top prize."
Ji Qingyi lowered her head and bit her lip. The handkerchief in her hand had been twisted into pieces.
Liang Maoxing returned to the palace very melancholy. The joy of winning the game was frightened by the cold eyes he met later.
He asked someone to find out who that person was, but he has yet to get any information.
Not long after he returned to the palace, someone came to inform him that Concubine Shu invited him over.
Concubine Shu is the biological mother of the Seventh Prince and was born in the Marquis of Chengen Mansion. I was favored for a while, but it didn't last long. However, since she has the prince by her side, she is not completely out of favor.
She knew that her family background was average and she was not favored. The seventh prince was neither a direct descendant nor an eldest son. There were several adult princes above her, so they would not be able to take the throne no matter what.
So she stopped worrying about it and kept a low profile to protect herself. The seventh prince was also instilled with the idea of eating, drinking, having fun, and not being too outstanding.
But what she didn't expect was that she overstressed her son and actually raised a stupid boy. Being in the royal family, there is no scheming at all!
She regretted it so much.
You know, everyone in the royal family has an exquisite heart with seven orifices and more eyes than a lotus root. Without scheming, the city cannot survive. You can pretend to be stupid, but you can't really be stupid.
Otherwise, you wouldn’t even know if you were harmed.
"Concubine, what do you want from me?"
Concubine Shu covered her chest, "You went to play polo with someone?"
"Yes, playing polo is quite interesting. Next time I have a chance, my mother and concubine can also watch her son play."
"If my mother-in-law continues to be so angry with you, I don't even have to worry about whether she can survive until tomorrow, so why bother watching the game!"
When Liang Maoxing heard that something was wrong, she immediately admitted her mistake and said, "Mother, my son has made you angry, I will help you first."
Concubine Shu was even more angry. She always admitted her mistakes positively and had a good attitude, but she just couldn't remember it!
"You are a noble prince, but you made a bet with someone over a woman and caused a storm in the whole city. Are you going to make me mad to death?"
Liang Maoxing hurriedly explained, "Concubine, it's nothing, we are obviously competing to see whose horse is better!"
"Then why bet a beauty!"
"that is because… "
"Hmph, you don't need to say anything. I have already dealt with that person. I didn't expect that if you don't cause trouble, they won't let you go. They also put people around you. Now they are just trying to ruin your reputation. I will tell you later. It might cost you your life!”
Liang Maoxing was startled, "That's not the case, I won't compete with them for that seat..."
Concubine Shu hated the iron, "The question now is not whether you want to fight, but they think you can fight, and they won't let you go just because you don't fight! When the three of them were fighting in full swing, they didn't forget to frame you. Give me a hand. There is no brotherhood in the Tian family, they are all enemies! When will you be more careful and let me worry less? "
Concubine Shu talked to him for a long time. Finally, he waved his hand weakly, "Forget it, no matter how much I say, you won't listen. My mother-in-law has prepared two maids for you. You can take them back when you leave later."
Liang Maoxing declined her kindness and said, "The maids in my palace are enough. You can keep the concubine for yourself."
"Alas!" Concubine Shu sighed again, not wanting to say anything else, she waved her hand and let the two maids in.
The two palace maids with enchanting figures and outstanding looks looked at him shyly and timidly.
Liang Maoxing only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, showing no interest at all.
Concubine Shu spoke again at this time, "You will be fifteen soon. It's time to know the personnel. I will designate you a royal concubine next year. When you get married, you will have a daughter-in-law to take care of you, and the mother-in-law will have less to worry about..."
At this moment, Liang Maoxing finally understood what the mother-in-law meant, and for a moment he remembered that cold and indifferent look in her eyes again!
Immediately, his hair stood up and he refused continuously, "I don't want it, I don't want it, concubine, you can keep it, I don't need it."
"You kid, are you still not enlightened?"
"I'm enlightened, I understand everything." He didn't have enlightenment before, but just today, he was suddenly opened to the Ren and Du channels. Not only was he enlightened, but he also automatically understood the skills of self-cleansing.
His subconscious mind told him that if he didn't keep himself clean, he would really die!
Concubine Shu thought he was embarrassed, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "Why don't you take them back when you're enlightened? Is it because you think they don't look good?"
Liang Mao
Concubine Shu was so angry that she fell back. She had spent so much time training the palace maid who taught human affairs and asked him to take him back to clean the toilet bowl, but he couldn't think of it!
He also said that he was enlightened.
"Go, go, don't be angry with me!"
"Okay, mother and concubine, please take care, my son will leave first." After saying that, he rolled out.
Back in his palace, Liang Maoxing was still worried, fearing that his mother-in-law would change her mind again and send him another gift.
At this time, a subordinate reported, "Your Majesty, I have already heard about what you asked me to inquire about. That place was the location of the Ji family at that time. The people coming from the Ji family today are Ji Wenzhong and Ji Wenli from the Shangshu family of the Ministry of War. brothers, and their sister. There is also a student from the Lin family named Song Yanqing..."
Liang Maoxing didn't know any of these people, and they were all of the same age. He couldn't tell who the owner with the cold eyes was today.
"Let's do this. A banquet will be held in my name in a few days. Several young masters from the Ji family will be invited to attend, as well as Song Yanqing. I'll post about it as well."
After thinking about it, he felt that this was suspected of wooing the Ji family. It would be bad if others misunderstood that he was forming a clique for personal gain.
"Invite some young men of similar age from other families."
"yes."
