Ji Man wanted to ask, why not look more? But soon a group of bored ladies next to her answered the question for her.
"Why did the second prince come out this year?"
"Probably because he is afraid that he won't come out for too long, the emperor should forget about him."
"The cripple is also pitiful. He has no chance of the throne, and he can't even get a prince. Maybe he doesn't have enough to eat, so come to the banquet to eat more."
After listening for a while, Ji Man summed up some information: 1. The prince is crippled, and 2. He cannot be the emperor.
No wonder Ning Yuxuan said that there is no need to look more, such a worthless prince is indeed out of their consideration.
Ning Mingjie was wearing a deep blue robe today, embroidered with silver cloud patterns, and a high jade crown. As soon as he walked in, he was baptized by sights from all directions.
Ji Man couldn't help looking at it twice, and sighed: "It turns out that men can also look better every year."
Maybe it was because of some things that Ning Mingjie had experienced, but Ning Mingjie didn't look as lonely and desolate as before, and his expression became much calmer. When he glanced over and saw her, he nodded slightly as a greeting.
The last time he climbed the house, Ji Man hadn't found a chance to thank Liang Zhien. Now he was staring at him and thinking, or he would say thank you when he was free to move around.
"Nie Sangyu." Mo Yuhou tapped his index finger on the low table in front of him.
Ji Man came back to his senses: "Huh?"
Ning Yuxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his finger and pointed to his face.
"What's wrong with the face?" Ji Man touched it without any holes.
Ning Yuxuan glared at her, and turned away a little annoyed, which made Ji Man very at a loss, did he suffer from arrogance again
But then the banquet started, and after going through the normal process, a group of royal relatives with status and status began to move freely in the Merlin like a release. Ji Man originally wanted to turn around and follow Ning Yuxuan, but as if he had never seen a woman before, when he saw a beautiful woman, he went up to talk to her.
The corner of his mouth twitched, Ji Man still decided to go to Ning Mingjie.
Standing behind a secluded rockery, Ning Mingjie seemed to be waiting for someone. Ji Man stood aside and hesitated for a while, but didn't see anyone coming, so he walked over and called out, "Master Biao."
"Yeah." Ning Mingjie's voice didn't sound surprising at all, he turned to look at her and said, "Last time I was in a hurry, but I haven't been able to say hello properly."
Thinking of the situation last time, Ji Man was still a little speechless. If it wasn't for Ning Mingjie's ability to climb the beam, she would have been sunk in the lake by now. This debt has to be recovered from Wen Wan.
"It's Sang Yu who hasn't thanked her yet."
Ning Mingjie looked at her with a smile for a while, and said, "I'm going to get married soon."
Ji Man was stunned, and said, "Congratulations."
Why is this dialogue a bit strange? Ji Man thought about it. In the original book, Ning Mingjie wholeheartedly helped Wen Wan do things, but for some reason, since she came here, Ning Mingjie seemed to have changed from the second male to an extra actor, and did not have a relationship with the female How many scenes does the protagonist have, and even now, when the future of the heroine is still uncertain, they are going to get married
Touching his heart, Ji Man felt a little pity. In the original book, the second male lead, who was played up as cute and cute, wants to live an ordinary life like this.
But she is not a reader, the Ning Mingjie in front of her is still alive and well, he does not love the heroine so much that he does not care about himself, and he does not wear a mask to pretend to be a quiet and melancholy beautiful boy, as if he is just a close friend. Friends, tell her calmly that you are getting married.
"At that time, Sang Yu will definitely present a big gift with Lord Hou." Ji Man said with a smile.
Ning Mingjie nodded calmly: "Okay."
Mrs. Tai Fu looked at Mo Yuhou in front of her, and called softly: "Master Hou?"
Ning Yuxuan withdrew his gaze, lowered his eyes and responded: "The junior is here."
"Since you want to see it, why don't you tie people around?" Mrs. Tai Fu joked twice.
Ning Yuxuan muffled: "What's the use of tying people up?"
You can't tie your eyes, you can't tie your heart.
Mrs. Taifu was a good friend of the old lady before her life, and she looked at Ning Yuxuan just like she looked at her own child, and sighed twice: "You child is thinking too much, you can tie up those who like it, who can be under your hands? Slip away? As long as there is a chance to seize the missed thing, then hold on firmly and never let go."
Ning Yuxuan laughed twice, cupped his hands and said, "Madam taught you the right thing."
It was not easy for Ji Man to be alone with Ning Mingjie for too long, so he left after saying a few words. Just looking at the group of ladies in the distance, and Ning Yuxuan who was smiling and talking to the beautiful women, he felt that he was still not suitable for the past, so he simply went for a walk by the pond.
There was no one on this side of the pond, but a wheelchair was parked far away. Ji Man paused in his heart, turned around silently, pretended not to see, and hid behind a tree to the side, planning to retreat.
It's really boring to meet an unfavored prince by chance at the banquet, she would rather go back and spend her energy seducing Ning Yuxuan than get involved in these things.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw Fan Tianxing, whom he had seen in Qianfu last time, coming from one side, stopped beside the second prince's wheelchair, and bowed his hands in salute.
He did not underestimate the second prince like others did, and he still had a respectful smile on his face.
Ji Man is not interested in what they said, so it's better to leave early, so as not to hear something terrible, and then step on a branch and be discovered by someone, and his life will be over.
Running back to the banquet venue, he bumped into Mo Yuhou head-on. The man still had no expression on his face, he grabbed her wrist and said, "Don't run around."
"Oh." Ji Man obediently stood beside him, and began to exchange greetings with all kinds of people.
When they went back, Ji Man also ordered Steward Qian to prepare a congratulatory gift for Ning Mingjie. Although it was still early, since they were relatives, the gift should be bothered.
"Master Biao is getting married?" Wen Wan opened her mouth in surprise when she heard the news.
Sandalwood nodded and said: "Madam is ordering to prepare a congratulatory gift."
Wen Wan was stunned for a while, feeling a little unspeakably sad in her heart. Ning Mingjie has always been very polite and gentle to her, making her subconsciously feel that this man should like her. When I first heard that we were going to get married, I was a little sad.
But Ning Mingjie is indeed about to get married. He is older than Ning Yuxuan. Ning Yuxuan has four children, but he doesn't have a married couple yet.
"I was really embarrassed to use him last time." Wen Wan thought for a while and said, "Let's also prepare some congratulatory gifts."
Sandalwood nodded.
Jiman punished Nie Chenyu's mother-in-law to the backyard, and the last time Muxu fought with Xia's family, he didn't give a punishment conclusion, so Nie Chenyu and Muxu felt more or less against Jiman. some dissatisfaction.
So when Ji Man and Ning Yuxuan went to the palace to have a banquet, Xia Shi and Liu Hanyun met each other.
When Mrs. Xia went out alone to pick plum blossoms in the garden, she quarreled with a woman who was serving the plum blossoms. Xia Shi is also a savage, grabbing his head and clothes, and getting into a fight with a servant.
From Liu Hanyun's place, Ze Lan beside Nie Chenyu bought all the silk and silver carbon that should have been distributed to Ling Hanyuan, and bought them for gold. Because of what Ji Man made to Nie Chenyu last time, Steward Qian didn't know what to say.
Liu Hanyun was weak and coughed all the time, Chun Pi wanted to invite a doctor, but Luo Yanxuan also invited all the doctors, saying that Nie Chenyu felt uncomfortable in her stomach and went to see if she was pregnant.
When Ji Man came back with Mo Yuhou, what he saw was the flower-protecting woman kneeling on the ground covered in scars, and next to her was a disheveled and proud Xia Shi who said "I won the battle".
Ning Yuxuan suddenly felt that there are so many women, it is really a headache.
"A mere servant, how dare you fight with your master?" Ji Man asked in a deep voice.
The old woman was obviously taught by others, she stiffened her neck and said: "Didn't I hear that Master Xia could beat Aunt Zheng last time? She hasn't been punished yet. Then this time Master Xia broke the flowers that slaves worked so hard to plant , why can't the servant beat her?"
It was said to be beaten, but in fact it was also beaten, Xia Shi did not let this woman please.
Ning Yuxuan at the side listened, and said with a headache: "I've never seen a woman who likes to fight, Sang Yu, haven't you taught the Xia family how to behave?"
Your woman, do you still blame me? Ji Man rolled his eyes, but said with a good temper: "I think Xia's straightforwardness is rare and cute."
Ning Yuxuan glanced at her, pursed his lips and said, "It's not shameful that there are no rules in this mansion, you should straighten it out."
"How dare I rectify myself?" Ji Man sneered and said, "Don't touch the heart of Lord Hou, you can't scold this one, you can't say anything about that."
Mo Yuhou's eyes lighted up slightly, and he even smiled: "What do you want to do with the people in this mansion today, as long as the beginning is right, I won't say anything about you."
Ji Man raised his eyebrows, thought for a while, and seemed to understand something. Now that the eldest prince and the third prince are busy fighting for power, they have no time to take care of Mo Yuhou's family affairs. After all, the value of these women has limitations.
Who should take the knife first
Nie Chenyu.
Liu Hanyun is the most temperamental in the yard, but unfortunately she was also the worst bullied. She turned around and these people could grab two of them, but Liu Hanyun is still the kind of submissive type.
Ji Man took the wick to Luo Yan Xuan, and the two doctors in the mansion were detained here. Nie Chenyu sat on the bed, hugged her stomach and complained of pain, insisting that someone show her if it was a happy pulse.
"You probably can't digest it because you eat too much." Ji Man said helplessly: "You won't have a stomachache when you're pregnant, but you'll have a stomachache if you eat too much."
Nie Chenyu snorted while lying on the bed, curled her lips and said, "Anyway, you just wish I couldn't get pregnant."
Ji Man didn't refute, it's also the truth, giving her a baby, I don't know how much fuss there will be these days.
"Doctor Li, let's go to Linghan Courtyard first."
Nie Chenyu stood up, frowned and said, "Why? I called the doctor first."
Ji Man looked back at her, and said with a smile: "Master Hou is waiting in Linghan Courtyard. He hates vicious women the most in his life, don't you know?"
