The abandoned queen is reborn: she makes the prince cry and seizes the throne!

They all claim to be daughters of the Ji family, but only when they benefit from the Ji family's influence do they think of themselves as daughters of the Ji family.

No one knows who spread the rumor, but the family is blaming each other and trying their best to clear themselves from the blame.

Jiang's mother remained calm and looked at the two brothers-in-law who were playing cowards. They were a group of sharp-tongued women. Don't think she didn't know what they were up to. It was a pity that they thought of smearing Shu'er's reputation at the moment when Shu'er was about to have her coming-of-age ceremony and get married.

"The second and third girls keep saying that there is a man living in the house, but has anyone seen it? Besides, don't make random accusations before the truth comes out." Mother Jiang looked at Ji Ranran, who drew her head back and kept silent.

She didn't see the man in the house, but so many people were talking about it, could it be true?

When his eyes swept over Ji Ningqiu, the latter seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if she was in a dilemma, "Aunt... I... our reputations are important, but combined, they are not as important as Fifth Sister's reputation. Aunt, let's just forget about it..."

Ji Yuanzheng didn't understand why she first said that someone was hiding in Ah Shu's house, and then said that Ah Shu's reputation was not as important as hers. She was unwilling to investigate further for the sake of her sister's reputation. So should she investigate or not?

Jiang's mother said coldly, "Since this matter has come up, we must investigate it thoroughly. If we don't investigate it today, what will happen if some dirty water is thrown on Shu'er in the future?"

The second lady agreed, "That's true... a girl's purity is the most important thing."

The third lady protected Ji Ranran and lowered her head in agreement.

Mother Jiang saw it all. These women who had lived in the inner house in the backyard for most of their lives said that they were doing it for your own good, but they were all waiting to see the joke. In their hearts, they only wished that their daughters would not get married into the royal family.

"Second Miss, did you see it?" asked the nanny beside Jiang's mother. Having been with the mistress for a long time, the nanny was very prestigious in the mansion and everyone below was respectful to her.

"It's not that I saw it with my own eyes, but it was Xiao Cui who was beside me who saw it."

"Xiao Cui, let me ask you, did you see with your own eyes any man on the fifth young lady's farm?" Although the nanny was old, her voice was loud and clear.

Xiao Cui knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, "Madam! Master! Xiao Cui dare not lie. I did see the fifth girl go to a private house that day... That day, I went to the street to buy things according to the young lady's instructions. On the street, I saw the carriage of the Ji family shaking towards the suburbs. I thought something had happened, so I hurriedly followed. There were a large number of unused houses on the outskirts of the city. After a while, I saw the carriage stopped. The fifth girl went to that house, and the one who opened the door was a young man..."

Ji Kang waved his hand, and Xiao Cui returned to Ji Ningqiu as if she had been enlightened. "So, the man in your house..."

Ji Mengshu sighed softly, "I originally wanted to give my father a surprise. Xiao Cui saw it right, there is indeed a man in that house..."

Everyone had different expressions, but they managed to keep their appearances so well that no one could tell what was going on in their hearts.

"But... that man is a secret guard I found. My father holds a high position, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, so I thought of letting him stay with my father so that I can feel more at ease..."

Look! Look!

Ji Yuanzheng let out a deep breath. He knew that Ah Shu was not such a fool. Even the emperor looked down on him, so how could he provoke an ordinary man and keep him in his mansion? !

"I bought him from the Colosseum, and he was seriously injured. I found a place on the outskirts of the city for him to recover. I will let him come to see my father tomorrow, during the Mid-Autumn Festival... Everyone, are you satisfied with what I said?" Ji Mengshu glanced coldly at his second uncle, third uncle, second wife, third wife...

"Oh," the second uncle, who had been silent for a while and had been watching the joke for a while, stretched his body lazily, "Shu'er's kindness was actually being gossiped about by those people outside. To be honest, I said, Shu'er knows the general situation, how could he be so unruly?"

Ji Ranran rolled her eyes, "Who knows if what she said is true? Then I will find a man tomorrow and tell him to be my father's bodyguard."

"This is simply nonsense!" Third uncle Ji Quan slammed the table hard, shocking Ji Ranran so much that her neck stiffened and she dared not speak anymore.

"It seems that you still have doubts, so why not go and invite that person over." Mother Jiang discussed with Father Ji, and after a while, Father Ji finally nodded.

Uncle Zheng was about to take his men away, "Wait." Ji Mengshu waved his hand from afar and took off the jade pendant that he always wore around his waist, "He is a martial arts expert, you can't bring him here by force, Uncle Zheng, take this jade pendant and tell him to come over tonight. When he sees the jade pendant, he will naturally follow you."

"Yes, Miss." Uncle Zheng set out from the mansion with three or five guards and headed straight for the outskirts of the city according to the address Xiao Cui gave.

The warm atmosphere at the dining table was long gone. Ji Mengshu ate calmly while holding the bamboo chopsticks, as if he was not the one who had just been interrogated.

Ji Yuan was sitting next to her, picking up some food from time to time. "Ah Shu, you must be thirsty after talking for so long. Someone, bring me the mulberry wine I brought from the border county!"

The mulberry wine was bright purple. Ji Yuanzheng poured the wine for Ji's father and Jiang's mother from the wine glass in front of him, and then poured the wine for Ji Mengshu. Jiang's mother frowned and said, "Yuanzheng, Shu'er doesn't drink."

"Mother, you don't know this, right? This mulberry wine is a local specialty. Even the local little girls like to drink this fruit wine. Even if you drink a jar of it, it won't make you drunk."

The fragrance of mulberries filled the entire banquet. The second and third wives sat still, and Ji Yuanzheng naturally ignored them, as if he couldn't see them, and just drank with Ji Mengshu.

After drinking the mulberry wine, the taste is sweeter than ordinary wine. "Brother, this is good wine."

It’s a pity that such good mulberry wine, no, even the good things that Ji Yuanzheng brought from the border county, their second and third branches couldn’t even touch a single cent of it.

Ji Ningqiu and the second wife looked at each other with ugly expressions. It was obvious that they did not take the second and third wives seriously.

While we were drinking, Uncle Zheng had already brought the man over. The man in black tights had an old scar on his face, a sword in his hand, and a sharp gaze. It was obvious that he was an experienced fighter.

"Nu Jiyan has met the young lady!"

Really loud.

Ji Mengshu quickly helped the man up. "From now on, you can call yourself a subordinate in this mansion. Your monthly salary will be the same as Uncle Zheng's. I called you here late at night because I want to tell you that from now on, you will stay by the side of the Prime Minister and protect his safety."

Ji Yan knelt again, clasped his hands together, and said, "I understand!"
