Chapter 758: Such a Cruel Heart

Xuanyuan Yao thinks what he said makes sense.

The old lady of the Ji family once served in the cabinet. Back then, the Ji family was a well-known and powerful family. It was still very prosperous when they married Prince Jing twenty years ago. However, after the old lady passed away, the current master of the Ji family - that is, Jing The princess's elder brother Ji Changyu failed to inherit his father's ability. Although he had knowledge, his qualifications were mediocre. After so many years, he only reached the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry, and it was difficult to be promoted further.

For ordinary subjects, the official position of a fourth-grade minister is not low, but among the royal family and dignitaries, it is somewhat difficult to take advantage of.

The generation of Ji Changyu's son Ji Dongli was even more mediocre. He couldn't read well and had no hope of an official career. He was even more afraid of hardship when joining the army. Fortunately, the Ji family had the shadow of their ancestors and the in-laws of Prince Jing's palace. In these years, they are still among the nobles, and they are more prosperous than ordinary aristocratic families.

If the masters in power of this generation were not Nan Xi and Rong Yu, Ji Dongli might still be able to rely on nepotism to work as a sinner in the court and get a salary. After all, whether it was Prince Jing or Xuanyuan Qi, just a slight promotion would be enough to maintain Ji Dongli. The majestic scenery of the home.

It's just that the regent is someone who can't get dirt out of his eyes. If he wants to live his life, he can only hang out at home. It's a delusion to get his salary for nothing and not work. Prince Jing and his son were very familiar with their master's temperament and would probably not test the law personally.

Early the next morning, the two of them prepared to go to the Ji family's appointment.

Xuanyuan Yao didn't know much about the Ji family. The King of Huainan had guarded the border for many years. Xuanyuan Yao was born in Huainan, so he was unfamiliar with most of the powerful families in the imperial capital. After Xie Jin's explanation, he understood the current status of the Ji family.

"I don't know much about how the ranks of powerful families in the imperial capital are divided, and I have no interest in knowing." Xuanyuan Yao stood in front of the mirror, carefully arranging his clothes, "But no matter how mediocre the Ji family is, as long as Prince Jing's palace is prosperous, the Ji family will He has a place among the dignitaries of the imperial capital.”

As long as the Ji family does not commit suicide, others will think highly of the Ji family, even if they only look at the face of Prince Jing's palace. Moreover, the ancestors of the Ji family are also high-ranking officials after all. In private, the influence of large and small should not be small. The power doesn't fade away so quickly.

Xie Jin walked up behind him and pinched his waist with both hands, as if he could pinch him with both hands: "Yao Yaoyao is so thin, it doesn't look like a military general's waist."

"It doesn't look like a military commander's waist, could it be that it looks like a dancing girl's?" Xuanyuan Yao glanced at him, "Be careful with your appearance in the morning."

"What image do you want in your room? I wish Yaoyao didn't wear any clothes."

Xuanyuan Yao was used to hearing his non-vegetarian words, so he just glared at him: "Are you going to Ji's house yet?"

"I don't want to go." Xie Jincong stretched out his hand to restrain him, "I want to tear Yaoyao's clothes to pieces and not leave this house today."

"You're so horny early in the morning." Xuanyuan Yao swatted his hand away, "Hurry up and get ready, we're going to leave soon."

"It's been prepared a long time ago." Xie Jin said with a smile, "Should we take a carriage or ride a horse?"

"Horse a horse." Xuanyuan Yao said without hesitation, "I don't want to ride in a carriage."

Xie Jin raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it good to ride in a carriage? You can also whisper something in the car and do things you don't want others to see."

Xuanyuan Yao was silent for a moment, then suddenly reached out and pinched his face: "Xie Jin, you are so thick-skinned that no one in the world can pierce it even with the sharpest sword."

Xie Jin chuckled: "Yao Yao, do you want to stab him with your sword?"

Xuanyuan Yao said expressionlessly: "Bring the sword."

"Yao Yao is so patient?" Xie Jin bit his earlobe, "Aren't you afraid of becoming a widower?"

Xuanyuan Yao calmly said: "You can't kill him even if you stab him. What kind of widower do you want to be?"

"What if I miss it?"

"Then I will marry more lovely wives and concubines, in order to dilute my longing for you as soon as possible." Xuanyuan Yao raised his lips and smiled slyly, "If I have a son, I will definitely let him burn three sticks of incense in the morning and evening, and remember it well. With you.”

Xie Jin sighed: "Yao Yao is really cruel."
