Chapter 145 Evil Retribution
"Seek peace?"
Ji Xiangli never expected that his daughter, who always had her own ideas, would give such an answer.
He was quite unwilling to give in. "She has an irreconcilable feud with our family. She was the one who stirred things up behind the scenes, causing your eldest brother's death! And you're still thinking of making peace?"
Ji Qingyan said coldly, "Your actions with your elder brother have spread throughout the capital! How many rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves are thrown into our house every day? Father has never even checked! More than twenty vats of them are taken out every day! That's all the people's resentment towards us!"
"I, your daughter, have enjoyed the wealth earned by you and my elder brother, and it's not my place to criticize you. But given the current situation, do you think we can act rashly? I know you're heartbroken over my elder brother's death, but after this incident, all of my father's former disciples and friends in the court want to stay as far away from us as possible. Not only is the entire court watching, but it can be said that the entire Daliang is watching! Does father intend to kill again?!"
Ji Xiangli Ping Japan is not such an impatient person, but he is really angry at the moment.
He immediately retorted, "If we don't kill her, will she continue to harm our family? As long as Lu Xuan and Jiang Xing are still alive, they'll secretly make trouble for us at the slightest sign of trouble. My Ji family has never been suppressed like this before. I will never live like this!"
Because he was too excited, Ji Xiangli's anger caused him to cough.
Ji Qingyan patted him on the back and sighed helplessly: "You might as well listen to my thoughts!"
She found a stool and sat down: "Since I can't kill her every time I try, I might as well use this punishment our family has suffered to apologize to her."
"Apologize again?" Ji Xiangli became angry again.
Ji Qingyan pushed him down and said, "Listen to me!"
Ji Bozhou had just been awakened by Qing Mo and was hurried to Ji Xiangli's bedroom. When he reached the door, he couldn't help but stop.
Ji Qingyan's eyes flashed with sinister intent: "She is now the princess, and Jiang Xing is also protecting her. If she dies, it will be a serious matter after all. We might as well break up the relationship between her and Jiang Xing first, and then slowly take action!"
Ji Xiangli was confused: "How do we break up their relationship?"
Ji Qingyan sneered, "This requires the Third Prince. Our Ji family cannot take action openly, and this apology must be performed with full ceremony. In this way, the people of the city will see that we are truly repentant, and their hatred towards the Ji family will gradually diminish. And this apology is a pretext for us to lure her here!"
"After luring her here, the main purpose is to let Jiang Xu destroy her chastity. In fact, Si Luan likes her and is the most suitable person to do this. But Si Luan is not strong enough, and if he does it, he will be retaliated by Jiang Xing."
Her eyes were dim and she spoke slowly, "But the Third Prince is different. He is the Emperor's most beloved son. Even if he did something like this, the Emperor would definitely try to cover it up. So, we don't have to worry about our escape route."
"Once the matter is completed, we can report it to Prince Jin. With such a scandal, Prince Jin can't resist the Emperor and will naturally not keep him any longer. Then we can let the Third Prince take the person away. By then, we can do whatever we want."
Ji Qingyan finished speaking in one breath, and Ji Xiangli's expression changed for a few moments, and it took a long time before he finally showed a look of satisfaction.
In fact, if it weren't for such a big incident happening in the Ji family, Ji Qingyan would not be willing to use such means to damage other people's reputation.
But since neither poison nor assassins can kill her, this is the only way.
Ji Xiangli looked at his second daughter with admiration, and was a little excited. "Excellent! This is a great idea! As a father, I knew you would have a good solution. Our Ji family still has a bright future!"
Ji Qingyan knew that because her eldest brother had passed away, Ji Xiangli was worried that the Ji family would fail, so he was worried about it.
Now that she has stepped forward, it also means that from now on, the Queen's assistant in the palace will officially change from her elder brother to her.
When she came into this world, she was indulged and favored by the Marquis's family for sixteen years, and now she had to take on this role for her elder brother.
Suddenly, she lowered her head again, her voice hoarse, "It's just that this is a bit unfair to Tang'er..."
Ji Xiangli waved his hand and said, "It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Even without Lu Xuan, the Third Prince would still have many women. Tang'er will marry the Third Prince in the future, so she must be mentally prepared for this!"
Ji Qingyan felt a little helpless. In fact, she did not agree with this, but there was no other way now.
After listening to the entire plan, Ji Bozhou's throat was hoarse, and his heart felt like it was trapped by a hemp rope, making it difficult for him to even breathe.
He subconsciously turned around and left. He wanted to write a letter to tell Yuanyuan to be careful.
He had hurt her so badly in the last life, he must not hurt her again in this life!
However, he only took two steps before he stopped.
If I tell my father and second sister, then...
Ji Qingyan glanced vaguely at the corner of the green clothes that had been lingering for a long time across the door, as if she was also watching what decision the person would make.
The corners of her eyes flashed with a fierce edge that had not been shown to others for many years.
Ji Bozhou suppressed his pounding heart and finally stepped in.
"Father, Second Sister!"
When Ji Xiangli saw Ji Bozhou, the slight smile on his face disappeared without a trace.
Ji Bozhou's face was pale, his eyes were swollen, and his hair was just piled up randomly on his head. The demeanor of a prince in the past had disappeared completely, and he looked more like a scoundrel who was drunk and hanging out every night.
Ji Xiangli shouted angrily, "You rebellious son! Such a big thing has happened in the mansion, and you're still drinking every day! You're such a loser. You're the only young man in the family, and you're not even as manly as your second sister!"
Seeing Ji Xiangli so furious, with blood seeping out of his body, Ji Bozhou rushed to him and asked with concern, "Father, what happened? Why is he so badly injured?"
Seeing that he still didn't know anything, Ji Xiangli couldn't help but get even angrier.
He pointed at Ji Bozhou tremblingly, the pain on his back making him grimace. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore, so he let go of his hand and said to Ji Qingyan, "You tell him!"
When Ji Bozhou heard what Ji Xiangli said about the only male heir, he had a bad feeling.
Then he saw Ji Qingyan glanced at him coldly, as if looking at a piece of trash: "Big brother has been beheaded!"
It was clearly a very light sentence, but Ji Bozhou heard a loud noise echoing through his mind.
His body trembled, and then his whole body tensed up, as if something was beating hard at his heart.
Ji Qingyan fixed him with a look of disdain: "At this time, Master Ji is still oblivious to the world outside the window, only focusing on drinking and getting drunk, feeling sad and depressed?!"
Ji Qingyan seldom spoke to him in such a sharp tone, and Ji Bozhou felt as if a heavy hammer had hit his heart.
His pupils were out of focus, and he just stared straight ahead, his whole body filled with grief and regret: "Yes, Second Sister was right!"
Such a big change happened at home, but he was completely unaware of it.
What a useless member of the Ji family he is. He really shouldn't have done that!
Ji Bozhou slapped himself a hundred times in his heart.
But now that things have come to this, he really can't continue like this. He is a man and he has to be a good steward for the future of the entire Ji family.
He looked at Ji Qingyan and Ji Xiangli, his eyes showing a calmness not seen in many days. "I was confused before, Second Sister and Father, please don't be upset. I will take all the responsibilities! If you have any instructions, you can tell me directly!"
Seeing his serious expression, Ji Qingyan didn't want to mock him anymore, but she couldn't help but speak out with dissatisfaction in her heart: "Heh, responsibility, take responsibility?"
"If you ask me, the person who caused my eldest brother to be beheaded, my father to be caned, and the Ji family to be stripped of their titles was all your Yuanyuan. I wonder if Master Ji is willing to kill her with his own hands now?"
Ji Bozhou's brows were furrowed, as if he was carrying a heavy burden. He exuded a sense of heaviness and uneasiness. "Second sister, do we need to investigate this matter further before making a decision? I think it's Prince Jin..."
"enough!"
Ji Qingyan interrupted him coldly.
She gave a sarcastic laugh: "I knew it! You're so love-struck and indecisive, and you still say you're taking responsibility for the family's honor? You'd better just go back to your Danbozhai and stay there!"
Ji Xiangli was even more disappointed with his son. He dragged a pillow from his side and threw it at him: "You didn't want to control that witch before, and now you are acting like a devil again. Get out of here!"
Ji Bozhou wanted to explain, but Ji Xiangli angrily ordered his men to kick him out.
He did not return to Danbo Zhai. He felt very depressed and wanted to walk around the mansion aimlessly.
However, as soon as he walked out of Ji Xiangli's yard, he saw the rotten eggs outside the courtyard wall, tirelessly hitting the mansion.
The spear and shield in his heart were attacking him rapidly.
In this life and in his previous one, he had done many things that were wrong to Yuanyuan. He wanted to change his appearance and start over, but why did fate not let him go?
On one side is the Ji family, which he has always regarded as his mission, and on the other side is her.
Should I remind my second sister about what she discussed with my father?
