Reborn to be without his father but with his son, the prince shouted, "I'm not dead!"

Chapter 57 I also want to leave the Duke's Mansion with my sister and grandfather

Ji Xiuxu sighed exhaustedly, "I agree to split up the family, what do you think, Dad?"

Ji Chengting had mixed feelings. His eldest son, whom he had personally taught, abandoned him for the Duke's Mansion, his second son didn't even dare to fart, and his granddaughter, who had just been brought home, argued for him.

"I can leave, but An Yu can stay. She is still the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion."

"No! I will go with Grandfather. Grandfather, you have seen that Father and Mother have been blinded by Ji Yunchu. If I continue to stay in the Duke's Mansion, I will be poisoned to death in the backyard one day in the future."

After hearing what Ji Anyu said, Ji Chengting immediately agreed to take Ji Anyu away.

The Duke and his wife felt complicated and uneasy when they saw that Ji Anyu avoided the Duke's Mansion like the plague.

"Before my grandfather and I leave, please ask my mother to return the dowry that my grandmother left for me."

Ji Anyu put on a faint smile, but it made people inexplicably frightened.

"Why do you want so much dowry?" Cao Lingru was unwilling to give it to Ji Anyu.

She had determined in her heart that Ji Anyu could only marry into an ordinary family in this life. Bringing so much dowry with her would only benefit her husband's family, so it would be better to leave it to Ji Yunchu.

Ji Yunchu is going to marry the prince, so her dowry must be generous. Besides, money is needed to manage things in the cannibalistic palace, so the more money the better.

Ji Anyu sneered without disguising his feelings.

"What does mother mean by this? Shouldn't I get my dowry back?"

Her face suddenly darkened, and she stepped forward and pressed Cao Lingru closely.

"The dowry was left to me by my grandmother, not to you. What if I take it? Does mother want to keep my dowry? Or does mother want to give all my dowry to Ji Yunchu?"

Cao Lingru seemed to be choked. She actually had this idea.

"Anyu, Yunchu is not marrying an ordinary person, but the prince! If the Duke's Mansion gives a small dowry, people will laugh at us. Your grandfather has already taken away half of the Duke's Mansion's wealth. Can you take half of your dowry?"

Cao Lingru put aside her noble attitude and begged softly.

"No!" Ji Anyu looked disdainfully at Ji Yunchu who was kneeling on the ground.

"Mother is old, her eyes are blind and her heart is even blinder! Ji Yunchu poisoned my grandfather, but I didn't send Ji Yunchu to the government because she gave birth to me. Mother got the advantage and still acted ungratefully. The person who did the wrong thing didn't get the punishment he deserved, and she even got half of my dowry. How is that?"

Seeing that Ji Anyu was so powerful and had his father with her, Ji Xiuxu signaled to Cao Lingru with his eyes to return her dowry.

Cao Lingru was unwilling, but he knew he was in the wrong.

"I'll ask Yuan Niang to give you the key later, and you can go get it yourself."

Ji Anyu didn't intend to miss such a good opportunity.

"Please ask mother to take out the dowry list immediately. I want to count the dowry myself here!"

"You..." Cao Lingru was furious. "Okay, okay, you have made it! Yuanniang, go and give it to her."

When Ji Chengting saw Ji Anyu coming alone, her eyes became moist. She really looked like her grandmother.

He also wanted to do something to help Ji Anyu, so he looked at Ji Xiuxu and said.

"Anyu is your father and daughter. Give Yunhua Tower to Anyu as her dowry."

Yunhualou is the most profitable restaurant in the Duke's Mansion.

The surprise came too quickly, catching us off guard.

Ji Anyu was overjoyed, as she had been thinking about Yunhua Tower for a long time.

"Dad, there are still many people to support in the mansion." Ji Xiuxu felt heartbroken.

"Unfilial son! Do you think I'm stupid? I raised you in vain!"

Ji Chengting wanted to strangle Ji Xiuxu to death.

"I will take some of the servants in the mansion away. Yunhua Tower used to suffer losses, and was only revived after your mother took over. It is just right to give them to An Yu." Ji Xiuxu gave up helplessly.

"Daduan, go get the deed to Yunhua Building."

Box after box of dowry was carried into the yard, and Ji Anyu counted the dowry according to the list.

When Ji Yunchu saw the generous dowry, she couldn't help but go crazy.

She didn't know that her grandmother had prepared so much dowry for Ji Anyu. It was her mistake. If she had known, she should have taken the dowry first and then dealt with her grandfather.

Ji Chengting was a man of swift and decisive character. He asked his housekeeper to take his servants to pack up their things and move to the house he had previously settled in another place in the capital.

After Ji Anyu finished counting the dowry, she took out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote down what was missing, and then handed it to Cao Lingru.

"Please mother, please make up for the missing dowry. If you really can't find the original item, please exchange it for silver according to the original price."

Cao Lingru glanced at the words on the paper. The missing items were all jewelry and bracelets that she had given to Ji Yunchu.

"Yuan Niang, go do it." Her head hurt a lot and she looked several years older.

When Ji Yunchi saw that his sister and grandfather were about to leave the corrupt Duke's Mansion, he also began to want to leave the Duke's Mansion.

"Father, mother, I want to leave the Duke's Mansion with my sister and grandfather."

Everyone was stunned by Ji Yunchi's words.

"You are the eldest son of our Duke's Mansion. Your sister is making trouble and you are following her. Do you want to piss me off to death?"

Cao Lingru slapped Ji Yunchi.

"Anyway, my son is disliked by my mother in the Duke's Mansion. My father and mother are still young. It will be enough for us to have another son." Ji Yunchi stared at Cao Lingru without any change.

Ji Xiuxu was immediately furious.

"What are you saying in anger? As the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, how can you abandon the Duke's Mansion? Have you fed all the books you have read over the years?"

"Father said to feed the dog, so it is to feed the dog. The Duke's Mansion is father's Duke's Mansion. Father arbitrarily decided the future of the Duke's Mansion and bet on the Crown Prince. I am not allowed to interrupt him. If that's the case, why should I stay in the Duke's Mansion?"

Ji Xiuxu was so angry that he couldn't stand steadily, and Cao Lingru hurriedly supported Ji Xiuxu.

"Yun Chi, you are different from your sister and grandfather. Your father will grow old one day, and the Duke's Mansion will depend on you in the future. You are so reckless and it hurts your father and me too much."

Ji Yunchi looked straight into Cao Lingru's tearful eyes.

"Father and mother don't want to be sad, but they hurt grandfather and sister's heart. I have always disagreed with what father did. Now even grandfather said that he would not participate in the struggle for imperial power, but father is still stubborn. We can't make plans with different ideas. Please let me leave the Duke's Mansion."

Cao Lingru's heart ached and she cried so hard that she couldn't speak for a while.

Ji Xiuxu still had a trace of rationality.

"The Crown Prince is the heir to the throne. You openly betrayed the Crown Prince. Do you... do you still want to serve as an official in the court?"

Ji Yunchi remained silent. He didn't think the prince would win in the end, as the general the prince relied on was at the border.

The frontier is too far away from the capital. Once the general is gone, the prince will surely die.

"Yunchi, you stay and help your father." Ji Chengting knew his grandson's talent and couldn't bear to see him buried, so he advised him.

"I've made up my mind!" Ji Yunchi knelt down resolutely.

The king is incompetent, so even if he enters the court as an official, he will not be able to play a role. It is better for him to wait for the right opportunity and then enter the officialdom.

Ji Anyu also agreed with his brother's choice, saying that his father was too anxious to take sides.

She had met the prince before, and apart from his background, the prince had nothing to show for himself in other aspects. Even Xu Yuyan was not as good as him.
