Chapter 270 Not worthy
Seeing that Lu Xuan finally gave in, Ji Bozhou's face lit up with joy.
He agreed repeatedly, "Yes, yes."
As long as Yuanyuan said this, it meant that she had almost agreed to this matter.
Ji Bozhou's whole body was filled with a bit of lightness.
"I've already found out about the matter you asked me about before, the death of Empress Jingyi."
After Ji Bozhou finished speaking, Lu Xuan paused holding the teacup and immediately raised his eyebrows to look at him.
Seeing Lu Xuan's interest, Ji Bozhou continued, "I asked my father, and what he said about my eldest sister's marriage was mostly the same as what you said that day."
"It is true that my eldest sister was pregnant before, and then she encountered the marriage arranged by the late emperor, so I thought of a way to let the emperor and my eldest sister meet, and then she became a concubine smoothly."
He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Lu Xuan's expression, "However, the truth behind the murder of Queen Jingyi is not as Yuanyuan said before."
"The late queen was not killed by my Ji family, but by the current emperor!"
"Your Majesty?!" Although this was the second time he heard this answer, Lu Xuan still couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.
"The Emperor and Sister Siyu are a loving couple. Even now, he has been taking good care of the Duke's Mansion. The Duke's wife's many properties are also flourishing because of the Emperor's approval."
"With such deep love, even now that your eldest sister, Empress Ji, is on the throne, it doesn't prevent him from commemorating the late Empress every year. I... really find it hard to believe."
Seeing Lu Xuan's look of disbelief, Ji Bozhou seemed to have expected it.
He mumbled, "Don't say you don't believe it. Even when I first heard it, I didn't believe it either."
"But Yuanyuan, people change. For example, you were so good to me before, but now, aren't you..."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan's eyes flashed with anger, and he put down the teacup in his hand heavily. "Ji Bozhou, there are differences between people. The difference between Bodhisattvas and evil spirits is even greater."
"Don't compare yourself to Sister Siyu. You don't deserve it!"
Feeling Lu Xuan's dissatisfaction, Ji Bozhou immediately swallowed all the words that were full of resentment.
"Yuanyuan, I'm not bringing up the past on purpose. It's just that there's really no need for my father to lie to me about this matter. So you must believe me!"
"The Ji family is already like this, what else can't he tell me? Not to mention now, even in the past, he would tell me many things."
"Father also said that when you look at a person, you can't just judge them by appearances. No man can refuse a woman who respects him and gives him something new..."
As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he had nowhere to look but out the side hall door.
Afterwards, I could no longer sit still.
Yes.
In his previous life, wasn't it because of this that he lost his wish?
He chose Song Chuchu, who was fresh and put him first in everything.
I thought it was a rose blooming just for me, but in fact it was a poison that broke my heart and had no antidote.
Things that easily lead people to indulge in them never come at a low price.
As happy as he was when he chose Song Chuchu in his previous life, as hateful as he was after being betrayed.
Listening to Ji Bozhou's words, Lu Xuan already had the answer and the truth in his mind.
At first, Uncle Song said that it was the emperor who killed Sister Siyu.
Both she and Jiang Xing chose to remain skeptical.
After all, it is not easy for the Emperor of Daliang to establish a reputation of loving kindness that is recognized by everyone.
The details of love and affection required over the years cannot be achieved in a few days.
In addition, the emperor has been mourning the late queen for many years, and he witnessed everything with his own eyes when Jiang Xing was a child.
But now, even Ji Xiangli, who knew the inside story, gave such an answer, so she couldn't help but believe it.
Jiang Xing, who had been watching everything from inside the wall, felt his heart boiling like Lu Xuan's after hearing Ji Bozhou's words.
Surprisingly... unexpectedly, it's the emperor's brother? !
how can that be possible?
Once, when he was offering sacrifices to the heaven, earth and ancestors, he swore to the world that Queen Jingyi was the only person in his heart who wanted to accompany him for the rest of his life!
Lu Xuan couldn't see Jiang Xing's expression.
But she got the answer and just wanted to meet him as soon as possible and then discuss it.
Therefore, he lost some patience with Ji Bozhou.
"Master Ji's conditions today, I have received them. I promise you that, in exchange for your information today, I will not take action against the Ji family again."
"But I have already said this beforehand: the karma of your Ji family cannot be blamed on me. Whether it rises or falls in the future, it will have nothing to do with me or the Prince Jin's Mansion!"
She glanced at him sideways and said, "If you have finished talking and there is nothing else, Master Ji, please go back home!"
As he said this, he glanced at the servant waiting outside the door, intending to order him to see the guest out.
When Ji Bozhou heard Lu Xuan's forgiving answer, his heartstrings, which had been tense for a long time, finally relaxed slowly.
He glanced at Lu Xuan and was about to say something, but the servant outside the door had already walked in.
"Master Ji, please come in!" He said, making a gesture to invite him to leave.
Looking at the resolute expression on Lu Xuan's face, Ji Bozhou knew that his repeated desire to see her and the expectation of getting a positive answer were ultimately just wishful thinking.
Finally, he lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
The matter was done, and she promised not to cause trouble for the Ji family again.
What else are you dissatisfied with?
In the beginning, didn’t you just want to come and see her?
His hands touched his chest.
Why is it so painful there...
Now I understand, she sent him away so quickly, because she wanted to meet another man?
Or has she already gotten used to being decisive towards herself?
But in this life, Jiang Xing is indeed his husband!
I have already lost my wish...
Ji Bozhou tilted his head.
His eyes were filled with sadness and longing.
Given my physical condition, will this be the last time I see her?
When the servant saw that Ji Bozhou was not moving, there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Then he glanced at Lu Xuan and urged, "Master Ji, please!"
When Ji Bozhou heard the servants urging him, he suddenly woke up as if from a dream and took two steps forward.
But when he reached the door, he couldn't help but turn around and looked at Lu Xuan deeply.
She sat at the top, her posture and demeanor already full of the majesty of a princess.
She is no longer the person she once was.
Tears welled up in his eyes without him knowing when. Ji Bozhou didn't have time to wipe them away and quickly said, "Take care."
Afterwards, he turned around and followed the servants and was taken out of the palace.
Lu Xuan looked at Ji Bozhou's lonely and frustrated back as he walked away, and sighed softly in his heart.
However, there was a sarcastic curve at the corner of his mouth.
I hope that all the fate with the Ji family and the entanglement between the two lives can end here.
"The princess handled it very well!"
At some point, Jiang Xing had walked out from behind the wall and stood behind her.
There was a hint of approval in his words.
Lu Xuan suddenly came to his senses and looked at his tall figure.
"Your Highness, did you hear what Ji Bozhou said just now?"
Jiang Xing nodded hesitantly, then let out a long breath.
"It's exactly the same result as we worried about."
"But investigating the supreme leader is not an easy task."
He touched his chin and asked, "Do you think Ji Bozhou will report this matter to his elder sister?"
If the Queen knew that she was investigating the truth behind Lu Siyu's death, she would probably report the news to the Emperor soon.
By then, everything will be destroyed.
Lu Xuan knew Jiang Xing's worries. She looked at the place where Ji Bozhou had left earlier, narrowed her eyes, but shook her head.
"Ji Bozhou, he won't. Empress Ji and them have always been in a mutually beneficial relationship. Now that she has become alienated from the Ji family, he must be able to feel it in his heart."
"He's not stupid. He wouldn't do something stupid like that."
Jiang Xing looked at Lu Xuan's serious expression and chuckled.
He glanced at Lu Xuan's belly and said, "That's fine. We'll have to wait until our child is born before we can investigate this matter."
