Chapter 840 The vicious woman who poisoned her husband 8

The next day, when the sun rose high in the sky, Ji Hefu finally woke up.

Shu Jiao's hand was on his waist, so close that her breath gently hit his cheek.

The sunlight outside had already shone in through the window.

Ji Hefu didn't move, just tilted his head slightly and kept looking at Shu Jiao.

Peaceful, warm, and stable... After so many years, my tense nerves seemed to be relaxed a little bit at this moment.

He likes this feeling.

After looking at each other for a long time, Ji Hefu's eyes gradually returned to their gloomy state, and he unconsciously put on a gentle smile, only occasionally touching Shu Jiao's soft long hair.

a bit.

Two times.

Shu Jiao's fingertips were roaming around his waist and abdomen, but her eyes were tightly closed.

Ji Hefu smiled, "Madam, it's time to get up."

Shu Jiao didn't hear anything and just hugged him and took two more bites.

Ji Hefu laughed secretly while his mind wandered and he began to think -

If one day Shu Jiao meets someone younger and prettier than him, will he fall in love with someone else?

After all, his wife seems to be particularly fond of beautiful women.

Soon the two of them got up.

Ji Hefu pulled away the red gauze still wrapped around his wrist and looked at Shu Jiao helplessly, "Madam, it's better not to read some storybooks as much as possible."

"My husband is right."

Shu Jiao seemed to be responding submissively, but the main point was, you can talk about yours, I don't want to listen.

The two of them got up and had lunch before Ji Hefu set off towards Xuanwei Division.

Fortunately, he didn't have to go to court today, and he was the boss of the Xuanwei Division, so no one dared to say anything even if he was late.

Shu Jiao was at home, slowly and leisurely filling all the loopholes in his account book.

After all, people have eaten it, so they should be given some benefits.

After finishing the work, Shu Jiao began to send invitation letters to various ladies that the original owner had made friends with, inviting them to go out and listen to a play together.

It’s good to listen to opera.

The ladies of the various mansions had nothing to do and were always made happy by the original owner.

Plus!

Shu Jiao married Ji Hefu, who was favored by the emperor and had the power to supervise all officials and execute first and report later.

If you have a good relationship with her, it will be convenient for you to ask for help when necessary and ask Ji Hefu to just raise his hand and let you go.

Although Ji Hefu has a bad reputation and is disliked and hated by all officials, this does not prevent the ladies from engaging in diplomacy.

The emperor would not be happy if you made friends with Ji Hefu directly.

But being on good terms with Ji Hefu's wife...

oops~

The women in the back house just got together and chatted, what's the problem with that?

Therefore, most of the ladies agreed to Shu Jiao's invitation.

The group listened to the actors singing downstairs while drinking tea and chatting. They didn't talk about anything serious, but the gossip in the inner courtyards of the various mansions was enough to talk about for three days and three nights without repeating themselves.

"Tsk~ If you ask me, Madam Liu is the one who is miserable."

"Which Madam Liu?"

"Who else could it be? The legal wife of Lord Liu Zhen, the Minister of Rites. A spoiled merchant's daughter, she married Lord Liu, who was a poor scholar at the time."

The lady who was speaking took a sip of tea to moisten her throat and continued, "On the one hand, you used your dowry to support Master Liu to study in high school, and on the other hand, you worked tirelessly at home to serve your parents-in-law and your younger brothers and sisters-in-law. What was the result?"

"Not even half a point."

"When Lord Liu became an official in the capital, he took two concubines. He also disliked Madam Liu's age and lack of beauty, so he didn't even allow her to have a child. Instead, the two concubines gave birth to two sons and a daughter."

"Now, even the household items in the mansion have been taken away by that concubine. This is truly ungrateful and unworthy of being a husband!"

After hearing this, Shu Jiao lowered her eyes slightly and blew a sip of tea. "If you ask me, a woman shouldn't marry."

"That's right. Marry a daughter of a higher rank and marry a daughter of a lower rank. That has always been the rule."

Another lady chimed in, "Didn't Lord Xing's daughter marry someone of a lower status?"

"Her husband, once he gained power, abused her as much as he could, causing her to die at a young age. The Xing family didn't even dare to come to the door to seek justice."

"Little did they know that if you climb high, you will fall hard. Sooner or later, the Xing family will take revenge."

Shu Jiao's eyes moved slightly, and she asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"Wu Zhiyuan is the prefect of Yan Province. He was transferred there last year."

"Yan Province? That's a good place."

"What a good place?"

The lady sneered, "It's a poor and remote place. It's a question whether I can return to Kyoto in this lifetime. I've been looking for opportunities everywhere this year to change my position."

"found it?"

"Shouldn't the Ministry of Personnel be in charge of this matter?"

Shu Jiao raised her eyebrows slightly, and suddenly realized something.

It seems that I have found a way through the Ministry of Personnel.

However, the transfer of a prefect is not something that can be accomplished by just any official from the Ministry of Personnel.

I'm afraid that Wu Zhiyuan has interfered in the battle for the throne.

Also.

After all, he is a fourth-grade warrior, which makes him barely qualified to join the highest-level battle.

After chatting for a while, Shu Jiao finally figured out through these gossips which family is just pretending to be friends with which family, which family is really good friends with which family, and which family has made enemies and had grudges against which family.

as well as……

What connections might some of the officials who were sent to other places have with the capital?

What are the preferences of these ladies and what is the situation in their homes?

As a qualified mistress, these are the basic knowledge that must be mastered.

Otherwise, what if you violate taboos and offend people when holding a banquet?

What if you put your enemies together and disrupt the peace of the banquet?

There’s more!

The basic factions must be made clear.

There are a few families here who tend to favor the crown prince and other princes in their conversations. You have to stay away from them.

Given Ji Hefu's identity, it is not easy for him to get too close to the prince's party.

Neither can she.

There is no need to be too close to those who are too upright and honest. After all, we can't go the same way. Just keep a nodding acquaintance...

It was already dusk when the show ended.

Shu Jiao was about to leave when she heard a "clang" from the next room, followed by a rather heroic sentence -

"What is Ji Hefu?"

Ok? ? ?

The ladies present subconsciously looked at Shu Jiao.

Shu Jiao couldn't help but frown, "I don't know who said such harsh words."

She raised her foot and was about to go over.

The ladies present had excitement in their eyes and followed her closely without any delay.

Watch a show!

This is the real show!

As I walked, I could still hear the sound from the next room.

"Ji Hefu is just a dog. If the emperor hadn't protected him, he would have been killed long ago."

"If you ask me, the emperor is also getting old and confused."

As soon as these words came out, the ladies present immediately took a breath of cold air -

wow~

What kind of "talent" is in this room, who dares to make such a bold statement? Is it really because they think that the nine clans have lived too long?

The ladies either clutched their handkerchiefs or covered their lips with them, staring nervously at the door of the wing room that was right in front of them.

God help me, please don’t let it be their child!

Otherwise it's over!

"Otherwise, why would the emperor employ a mad dog like Ji Hefu who flatters the superiors and bullies the subordinates? He allowed him to murder virtuous people. If you ask me, since the emperor is old..."
