Chapter 244
Before Xi'er left, he left tens of thousands of taels of bank notes, not to mention half of Ninth Prince's private treasury, and it was impossible to say that he couldn't afford to give gifts.

When he said this, he also wanted to have his own ideas. The most important thing was that he now had a salary and could support himself.

What's more, the money Xi'er earned was not his own in the first place, so he had no reason to use Xi'er's money to play tricks.

He will not go to any unnecessary entertainment, he wants to learn from Qi Yuan, Liang Zhifu and others, and be a pure minister.

Some people say what he did is good, and some people say it's not. Anyway, he said to the public that he is a son-in-law and his family is still poor, so he doesn't care what others think of him.

On the day when Xi'er held a wedding banquet, he was going to go home for dinner at noon, and he had just arrived at the gate of the Imperial Academy.

He was stopped by two men who seemed to be guards, "You are Ji Kang, Ji Shi, right?"

"Yes, you are?"

"We are the subordinates of the Seventh Princess, and we are ordered to invite you to the Princess' Mansion."

"What's the matter?"

"You'll know when you go"

Ji Kang frowned, princess?He doesn't know what kind of broken princess. He works as a small servant in the Imperial Academy, and he has nothing to do with the princess. What can happen?

"I'm sorry, I already have a wife, so it's inconvenient for me to associate with the princess, please leave!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two people to speak, he let go and ran away. By the time the two people reacted, his people had long since disappeared.

Although Ji Kang knew it was wrong to do so, he would definitely offend the princess and be labeled as disrespectful, but he still did it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the Imperial Academy in the afternoon, the queen mother's order arrived and announced him into the palace.

Ji Kang sighed and prayed silently in his heart.

"Miss, I didn't do anything to be sorry for your husband. They found me first, and I can't even hide, alas~"

So he put down what he was doing and followed the eunuch into the palace.

In the Taihe Palace, a group of women serve the most honorable woman today, the Empress Dowager!

She is over fifty years old, her hair is a little gray, and she is dressed in elegant and luxurious clothes. She sits upright at the top, with her eyes half closed, listening to the flattery of these women.

One of the women closest to her was pinching her leg.

"Grandmother, that Ji Kang will come in a while, please help Mingzhu to decide."

"Wait until he comes."

Ji Kang came to the hall, kowtowed, saluted, lowered his head slightly, and stood in the hall with his hands down.

The queen mother opened her eyes and waved her hands at those women. Only an older nun and the woman who squeezed her legs were left in the hall.

This woman pinching her legs is the current Seventh Princess, Long Mingzhu, who is very popular with the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

She was married a long time ago, but her son-in-law died three years ago for unknown reasons, and the real culprit has not been found out until now. She has been a widow until now, and she has no children by her side.

That day when the number one scholar was parading through the streets, she happened to be drinking and having dinner with a group of friends in a restaurant. When she saw him riding a tall horse, his handsome and mighty appearance caught her eyes immediately.

She asked people to inquire about Ji Kang and found out that he already had a wife. She was very disappointed, but when she thought about her identity, she became confident again.

One is a princess, one is a peasant girl, one looks like a fairy, and the other is ugly. I believe that as long as you are not a fool, you will make the right choice.

Who would have thought that she would be rejected when she sent someone to invite him over to the house, which made her very annoyed.

Unexpectedly, a little waiter dared to disobey her order and say such annoying words.

So he ran to the palace and asked the queen mother to come forward, firstly to teach Ji Kang a lesson, and secondly to ask the queen mother to make decisions for her and recruit Ji Kang as her son-in-law.

In her eyes, Ji Kang's wife is not worth mentioning, as long as she thinks, he is in her pocket.

The queen mother looked at Ji Kang, and after a while, she spoke.

"Ji Kang, stand forward, Ai's family can't see clearly."

Ji Kang had no choice but to take a few steps forward, and the queen mother said again:
"Head up."

He raised his head and lowered his eyelids slightly. The Queen Mother stared at his face for a long time.

"Are you the new champion of this year?"

"Yes, Empress Dowager."

"It's pretty good looking, can I get married?"

"There is a good wife in the family, and she is only fifteen years old."

"I heard that the Seventh Princess summoned you, why didn't you go?"

"The minister was appointed to the Imperial Academy, and I don't know the Seventh Princess. She is a woman, and the minister is a married man. Even if he has no business dealings, he should avoid suspicion."

"Well, you are a man of courtesy."

The Seventh Princess, who pinched the queen mother's leg, stared at Ji Kang blankly. She was so close, she could see more clearly. Ji Kang, who was dressed in an official uniform, looked even more majestic at this moment, no matter how pleasing to the eye, she gently pushed Pushed the Empress Dowager's leg.

The queen mother gave Long Mingzhu a helpless look, she looked at Ji Kang and said.

"The Seventh Princess summoned you because she fell in love with you. What do you think of this?"

Ji Kang thumped and knelt down, "I have already married a wife, and I love her so much, I dare not think otherwise."

"Oh? I heard that your wife is a peasant girl, and she's ugly?"

"First of all, I never judge people by their appearance, and I really love my wife. Secondly, she is my savior. Without her, there would be no minister. Without her, there would be no minister. Now, Ji Kang will never do that ruthless Unrighteous people, there are many good men in the world, so please ask the queen mother to choose another spouse for the princess."

The queen mother snorted coldly, "Do you know that refusing a royal marriage is a crime of disrespect?"

"I am willing to accept the crime for my minister."

"you!"

Ji Kang knelt in the hall without saying a word, the seventh princess got up and walked to Ji Kang with eyes full of resentment.

Then he squatted in front of him, "Ji Kang, I am the Seventh Princess. I like you. Look, how beautiful I am. Your wife is just a village girl. How can I get along with you?" Bi, as long as you accept this palace, you will be rich and prosperous in the future, why do you need to be a lecturer in this small Imperial Academy?"

Ji Kang kept his eyelids down, never looking at Princess Seven.

"In my heart, my wife is the most beautiful woman in the world."

"You, you are really stubborn."

"As a minister, I admit death"

"Aren't you afraid that this palace will go to the emperor to ask for an imperial decree to let you divorce your wife?"

Ji Kang was expressionless, "As a minister, I will never be a heartless and shameless person who abandons his wretched wife."

"You are fine, you are fine"

At this time, the atmosphere in the hall was very rigid, and the talk was on this point, the queen mother was about to get angry, when the eunuch outside reported at the door.

"Empress Dowager, the Ninth Prince is here."

"Why is he here, hurry up and announce."

As soon as Ninth Prince Long Tianlin entered the hall, he saw Ji Kang kneeling on the ground, and he hurriedly bowed to the Queen Mother.

"See Royal Grandmother."

The Queen Mother immediately smiled when she saw him, "Lin'er, why are you here?"

"I have something to do with Ji Kang. I heard that he has entered the palace, so I came to look for him."

"Oh? You know each other?"

"Yes, when he got married, my son-in-law went to watch the ceremony"

"How did you know each other?"

"My son was plotted against. He was not only injured, but also poisoned. It was Ji Kang's wife who saved his life."

"She also has medical skills?"

"She is Hu Yidao's closed disciple."

The empress dowager gasped, if there were no such things, she would have ordered Ji Kang to divorce his wife and marry Mingzhu.

But with these, she can't take care of this matter anymore, she can't let the world say that the royal family is ungrateful and robs the benefactor's husband.

Seeing the look of the imperial grandmother, the Ninth Prince knew that the Empress Dowager had retreated. He looked at the Seventh Princess and his face darkened.

"Pearl"

"Mingzhu met Brother Nine Emperors."

"Our Long Yu Kingdom has many good men. You have a high status, how can you despise yourself so much and snatch a married man?"

"But Ben Gong has his eyes on him."

"But he has a wife."

"Then I will take a step back, my wife will be reduced to a concubine, and I will be my regular wife."

"You really have the nerve to say it, but what about those faces in your backyard?"

"You, how do you know?"
