Chapter 402: Joining forces to force Ji Yan
Ji Yan was already overwhelmed by the matter of the deposed crown prince and Jiang Hao. He hurried back from court and such a big thing happened in the mansion. At his age, he felt exhausted.
When the second room was robbed, it was suppressed for the time being.
Now the third room has suffered again, especially Ji Ziyu's study room has been emptied, which is simply unbelievable.
These books are treasures to their owners, but what do ordinary people do with them? Even if they are used as firewood, they are not as durable as the dead branches on the mountain.
Can't figure it out!
No one could figure out why the other party took out Ji Ziyu's books.
"grandfather."
Ji Ziyou shouted, his eyes red, he knelt down with a solemn expression, kowtowed heavily and said: "Grandfather, please make the decision for your grandson."
Even if Ji Ziyou was confident of passing the imperial examination, there were still more than three months before the exam. If he neglected his studies during this period, he might not perform well in the exam.
If this happens, he will have to wait another three years.
Three years...
He couldn't wait.
A 22-year-old newly-minted scholar cannot stand out from the crowd.
What's more, Ji Zixuan might already be in high school.
The changes in three years were beyond his control.
However, even if he could not make it into the top three, there were only a handful of 18-year-old newly minted Jinshi since the founding of Dali.
"Please ask grandfather to decide."
"Please ask the old man to make the decision for us."
……
As Ji Ziyu knelt down, Ji Xueyin also knelt down immediately.
The second and third wives also knelt down, covering their faces and crying.
Ji Yan's head was splitting because of them. His eyes swept across the back of their drooped heads and his temples throbbed.
Uncle Ming stood aside and also sighed slightly. It was a turbulent time both inside and outside the mansion.
The second and third wives are forcing the old man to search the house!
"Amin."
Ji Yan closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when Uncle Ming came up, he suddenly opened his eyes: "Search!"
"Grandfather, what if we can't find it?"
Ji Xueyin was thinking about her dowry all the time, and she was really concerned about what to do if she couldn't find it in the mansion?
So much so that she had no idea that she was questioning her grandfather.
"Third Miss."
Uncle Ming spoke up at the right time and reminded: "There are too many people in the mansion and they are all gossipy. Masters, please go back first. I will lead the people to search the mansion now."
Seeing that Uncle Ming had intervened in time, Ji Yan just glanced at Ji Xueying coldly, then sat back in his chair to drink tea.
Your Majesty... Your Majesty actually went to the abandoned Crown Prince's residence last night...
Yuzhang...
I don't know how Yu Zhang is doing now...
Ji Yan was full of thoughts. In his opinion, the theft in his mansion was far less serious than the turmoil in the court.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been on sick leave for three consecutive days, and the situation is likely to get worse. The deposed Crown Prince has now been demoted to a commoner, with his limbs broken, so logically speaking, he has no chance of competing for the throne.
But His Majesty mentioned him again, openly or secretly...
As for the other princes, they were also fighting openly and secretly.
headache.
……
Uncle Ming ordered the gate of the mansion to be closed and refused to see any visitors. He then had the entire mansion searched.
For a time, the entire Ji Mansion was in a state of panic, and the servants were all in a state of panic.
In the fragrant grass garden, Jiang Hao was in a good mood and asked Xiangcao to prepare the pot. The copper basin was placed on the charcoal fire, and the oil soup was bubbling.
The hot pot meat originated in the Yuzhou Prefecture area. It is very enjoyable to eat in the early summer.
This was the scene Uncle Ming saw when he brought people here again.
This……
Jiang Hao picked up the food and ate happily without even looking at Uncle Ming.
Xiangling then hurried out and said to Uncle Ming, "Uncle Ming, Miss said you can search, but keep your voice down and don't disturb her hot pot."
Uncle Ming: "..."
