I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 99: Prince Yongning is at fault again

After returning from Taowu, Ji Yunze was so excited that he could not control himself. He put his hands on Dong Rong's shoulders and murmured to himself: "Dong Rong, Miss Ye finally agreed to my proposal. Hurry up and slap me to see if I am dreaming."

Dong Rong rubbed his brows speechlessly: "Master, you are not dreaming, this is all real."

It had been several hours since he came back, but the young master still hadn't accepted the matter and kept asking him the same question over and over again. This was supposed to be a great joy, but it gave him a headache instead.

Ji Yunze continued to rub his palms, anxiously ordering, "Go and pack up all the valuables His Majesty has bestowed upon us. Tomorrow we will go to the county and find the best house. We will also have the elders prepare more betrothal gifts. Although this is a short period of time, I will not let her down. I must let her marry into our Ji family with honor."

Dong Rong smiled and said, "Sir, Miss Ye is clearly not someone who values ​​these things. If she cared about these worldly things, she would have chosen Prince Yongning and the two young masters of the Gu family long ago. I'm afraid she only hopes that you will treat her wholeheartedly."

"Of course I know this." Ji Yunze didn't care: "Because of this, I can't let her down. I must give her everything I can give."

Dong Rong knew best how her master felt about Miss Ye. If it hadn't been for her generous help, her master wouldn't be where he is today. Now he wishes he could give his heart to that girl.

He also hoped that Miss Ye could marry into the Ji family as soon as possible, so that the family would have a mistress in charge, and the Ji family would be more prosperous in the future.

However, the young master was now too excited and had no idea how to please the girl. He smiled and reminded her, "This was all decided in a hurry. Why worry about it? You have the money anyway. Why not wait until Miss Ye enters the mansion and see what kind of house she likes before buying it?"

"You have a point."

Ji Yunze also realized his negligence and nodded quickly. Then he and Dong Rong prepared a table of wine and food to celebrate properly.

Although he and Dongrong were master and servant, Ji Yunze always treated him as his own brother. He personally poured a glass of wine for Dongrong and looked at the scar on his face. Ji Yunze couldn't help but sigh.

"Dongrong, you've suffered a lot for me. After Miss Ye marries in, I will discuss with her and ask her to find you a marriage as soon as possible. In the future, you must help her manage the affairs of the mansion and don't let her worry too much."

Dong Rong nodded and said, "Don't worry, my lord. The clan values ​​you very much and has given you a lot of clan property this time. After Miss Ye marries, I will ask Miss Ye and then buy everything for her."

"You've been very thoughtful. You must have tried to please her in every way."

Ji Yunze has always been confident in Dong Rong's work.

But when he thought about marrying Miss Ye soon, he was so excited that he could not calm down and was afraid that he would not be able to sleep all night.

"Dongrong, you must stay with me tonight until I'm drunk. Tomorrow we'll go together to prepare for the wedding." Ji Yunze said happily.

"Okay." Dong Rong responded happily.

It has been a long time since I saw the young master so happy since the master passed away.

After ten years of hard study, the young master has finally reaped the rewards of his hard work. Not only has he been favored by His Majesty, but he has also been able to marry the girl of his dreams. Such a day is indeed worth celebrating.

The two of them were toasting each other in the room, chatting about old times, and before they knew it, they were already a little tipsy. Looking at Dong Rong lying drunk on the table, Ji Yunze shook his head helplessly, drank a few more glasses, and then felt drunk and fell down.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened, as if someone broke in.

"Who?"

Ji Yunze opened his eyes in a daze, and before he could see the figure of the person coming, he was knocked unconscious.

……

When Ji Yunze woke up again, he was awakened by a strange fragrance. He subconsciously reached out to the side, and the soft touch startled him and he quickly opened his eyes. Looking at the disheveled woman beside him, Ji Yunze's face turned pale. He stared at the strange woman with dark eyes and shouted, "Who are you? Why are you in my bed?"

The woman was obviously frightened as well. She stood up in panic and cried out, "Ah, where did this lecher come from? How shameless!"

After saying that, she burst into tears and yelled in the room: "Hurry up and help me."

Hearing the sound, someone quickly rushed over here.

Before Ji Yunze could stop them, the door was pushed open and many people rushed in.

"Cousin, this man molested me. You must help me." The woman begged the leading man.

The person who came was none other than Qi Yunsheng.

He had studied with Ji Yunze in the county school, and the two had met several times, so he naturally recognized him.

"Top Scholar, you are so bold that you dare to tease my wife. This is simply a disgrace to a scholar."

Qi Yunsheng was furious and waved his hand at his men: "Come here, take him to the officials immediately. I must ask for an explanation from the censor."

"Qi Xiucai, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Ji Yunze was still confused at this time. He had no idea why he suddenly ended up in this woman's house. He didn't know this woman.

But he had no chance to figure it out and was forcibly escorted away.

Seeing this, the woman immediately wiped away her tears, approached Qi Yunsheng with a flattering look on her face, and began to beg in a delicate voice.

"Cousin, I endured that little bitch from the Chu family occupying my home for you, and now I'm even risking my own reputation to help you find a future. If you don't take me back this time, I'll definitely tell my aunt."

"Arou, you've done so much for me, how could I not take you back? Ji'er is our son, even for him, I can't let you and your son be criticized outside."

Qi Yunsheng pinched her fair and tender face and said gently, "You and Ji'er will return to the mansion today, but you must take out all the silver. I believe you also know that I lost 500,000 taels of silver. The people from Yongning Palace are guarding the mansion, so I have to send them away first."

Liu Rouer had heard about this from her aunt a long time ago. She smiled and nodded, "Cousin, I will be your wife in the future. I will not bear to see you suffer. I will give you the silver after you meet my aunt."

After saying that, he reminded her worriedly, "Cousin, that silver is all our family's assets. If you deal with King Yongning, how are we going to live in the future?"

"You're stupid," Qi Yunsheng said with a smug smile, "Do you know who I'm working for now? That's Young Master Gu from Lin'an. Once I get his work done, a mere 500,000 taels of silver will be nothing."

After hearing this, Liu Rouer was completely relieved and followed Qi Yunsheng to the Pacification Office.

Ye Wanshu and Yan Mama were busy preparing for the wedding in Taowu, but when the appointed time came, Ji Yunze still hadn't shown up. Thinking of Sun Xiucai's matter, they began to feel anxious.

At night, she sent Tian Fu to take people to the Ji family to inquire, only to find out that Ji Yunze and his servant Dong Rong had disappeared without a trace.

Thinking of the Chifeng Camp stationed around Taowu, Mother Yan suddenly became alert and whispered in her ear, "Miss, could it be Prince Yongning causing trouble again?"
