Chapter 193 The Princess Died
In her memory of her previous life, Ji Ziche was not away from the capital at this time, and the eldest princess and Ji Xuze had a very good relationship as mother and son. It was unknown what the reason was that made Ji Xuze want to kill the eldest princess, his adoptive mother.
In short, Ji Xuze gave the princess a chronic poison for a period of time. Although she was not poisoned to death, she was lying on the bed with only her last breath like a living dead.
In his previous life, it was after Song Yunxi's death that Ji Ziche, who was far away in Xidi, returned to the capital. Emperor Qinglong loved this only nephew as if he were his own son and valued him very much, wanting to entrust him with important tasks.
On her deathbed, the eldest princess seemed to finally realize how she had neglected her biological son Ji Ziche, so she left all her wealth to him as compensation.
Ji Xuze was jealous to the point of madness, thinking that Ji Ziche had taken away everything that belonged to him. He even poisoned the eldest princess' funeral, causing all the clan members to be poisoned. Of course, Ji Ziche, who was keeping vigil, was not spared.
He took advantage of the fact that the clan members were unconscious to lock Ji Ziche in the dungeon of Su'an Earl's Mansion, and threatened to the outside world that Ji Ziche had committed murder out of hatred for the royal clan members and then escaped, and put all the blame on Ji Ziche.
When the imperial teacher arrived in the capital to rescue Ji Ziche, his scapula was pierced by Ji Xuze and he was tortured.
It was precisely because of this memory that she moved up the time of poisoning the eldest princess and sought cooperation with Ji Xuze.
But Shen Zhikang clearly said that the medicine would not go astray and would definitely kill the princess. Why didn't she die when the time came?
But it’s better this way. I can use this opportunity to ruin Ji Ziche’s reputation and make Song Yunxi lose a support.
Under the dim candlelight, Song Muxue's eyes were filled with undisguised viciousness. This time, she not only wanted to destroy Ji Ziche completely, but also wanted to let Song Yunxi experience the bone-eating pain.
The next day, when Ji Ziche, who was summoned into the palace by Emperor Qinglong, returned, it was almost noon, and he was accompanied by the two brothers Ye Xuanqi.
"Second brother!"
Song Yunxi, who was originally happy, suddenly fell down when she saw the two brothers of the Ye family: "Why are you here again?"
[Do they have no home of their own? ]
Her puffy and cute look made Ye Xuanqi want to tease her: "Our mother is trapped in the deep palace, and my two brothers are homeless. We can only follow our second cousin to the Imperial Master's Mansion to join in the fun."
Song Yunxi: “…”
You can be even more shameless.
Seeing Qin Xubai, Ye Xuanqi put away the playful look on his face and respectfully called out, "Cousin."
Although Qin Xubai had not practiced martial arts for many years and had completely given up, the powerful aura he exuded made people feel oppressive.
Ye Xuan Ke did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him, and followed Ye Xuan Qi in calling out, "Cousin Xu Bai."
"Yeah." Qin Xubai just glanced at the two of them and responded.
Jiang Yanting happily went over and put his arm around Ye Xuanke's shoulder: "Ake, how many years has it been since we had dinner together?"
Thinking of the scene in the past when the two of them fought over whether to eat chicken legs or chicken wings, Ye Xuanke was in a good mood: "Anyway, don't even think about fighting with me for chicken legs again!"
"Look at you, you are such a grown-up and you still want to grab chicken legs. Is there less food for you in the palace?"
"That's not the case, it's just that the chicken legs I snatch from you always taste extra delicious."
Jiang Yanting was stunned for a moment, then he understood what he meant. What was delicious was not the chicken leg, but the memory of the time they spent together when they were young.
Even without the luxurious living they have today, the past was still a good time for them.
Jiang Yanting was also touched. One of them was a prince who was ignored and totally neglected, and the other was a bastard who was mistreated and ignored. At the beginning, the two of them could be said to be sticking together for warmth.
So he announced proudly: "Okay, today I've made roast chicken, grilled chicken, braised chicken, and stewed chicken. All the chicken legs are for you to eat!"
Thinking of the table full of chickens and the bowl full of chicken legs, Ye Xuanke frowned: "That's not necessary."
Is Jiang Yanting planning to make him afraid of chickens for the rest of his life, or is he using chickens to act like the richest man in the world? Isn't that too shabby?
The richest man in the world should act like the richest man. He doesn't mind Jiang Yanting killing him with gold, silver and jewelry.
None of them are talkative people, so every time Ye Xuanke comes to the mansion, it becomes lively. Song Yunxi finds that she, who used to hate crowds, is now used to it.
"Second brother, where is Master? You all went to the palace together, why did you come back alone?"
Ji Ziche smiled bitterly: "My uncle has kept Master in the palace. I don't think he will be allowed to leave in the next few days."
"Humph!"
Song Yunxi complained dissatisfiedly: "I haven't even had a good talk with Master yet, and he's here to snatch it from me. He really can't stand seeing others doing well!"
Her words, which seemed outrageous to others, were natural to them. After all, she had been disliking her uncle Emperor Qinglong for a long time.
After lunch, they drank tea in the hall. The housekeeper came in with a panicked look on his face. After greeting the Ye Xuanqi brothers, he said in an uneasy voice, "Three young masters and young ladies, someone from Jingzhao Prefecture has come and said they have something to ask the second young master."
Ji Ziche narrowed his eyes slightly: "Let them in!"
No one expected that the people from Jingzhao Prefecture would bring such shocking news—
The eldest princess passed away.
When the group arrived at the Princess's residence, the first person to rush over was Ji Xuze's crying, "Mother...Mother, why did you leave your son behind?"
Just hearing this hypocrisy, Song Yunxi was so angry that she wanted to rush up and kick him.
"My Lord, please accept my condolences!"
"My Lord, please don't be so sad that you damage your body. If you do that, the princess won't be able to leave with peace of mind."
"For the sake of the eldest princess, the prince must also take care of his health!"
"..."
Song Yunxi couldn't suppress her temper anymore.
Rushing into the mourning hall, the clan members who were originally comforting Ji Xuze all shut their mouths tacitly. The mourning hall instantly became quiet, and everyone lowered their heads guiltily.
Song Yunxi's glance made them all feel uneasy, and they regretted having said too much just now.
Even the Emperor would pamper this female devil. Even Concubine Shen, who is the most favored concubine in the world, is no match for her. They dare not provoke her.
"Who was speaking just now?"
Just a simple and cold question made them feel even colder, for fear that she would find them.
Song Yunxi didn't even put on the incense, and walked slowly past everyone: "Why, you have the courage to say it but not the courage to admit it?"
Clan members: They really don’t have the guts.
"Song Yunxi, what do you want to do?"
Ji Xuze had to cover his face because of the scars, but the hatred in his eyes was very obvious: "You...you are too much. You killed my mother and wanted to make her restless after death. What is your intention?"
