Chapter 162 A Woman's Suspicion
"Have some tea, my sister and I have something to talk about!"
After sending Liu Zhao away, Zhao Ji immediately called Wei Jin back to the bedroom.
"Sister, I still don't quite understand why you asked me not to go with him?"
Although Wei Jin knew that Zhao Ji had a deeper meaning, he really couldn't understand it.
"Sister! Are you blinded by love?"
"Sister, how is it possible?"
Wei Jin pouted. After Andy Lau left, she felt empty in her heart.
"Sister! You are really a bit stupid. Have you ever been to Qiyang?"
"No? But the emperor asked me to marry him and go to Qiyang. No matter how high the mountains and steep the roads are in Qiyang, I will go!"
Wei Jin thought to herself, since she followed Andy Lau, she would definitely follow him wherever he went!
"Of course he has to go, but have you ever thought about how he knew Shangguan Mi? Shangguan Mi has never been to Qi Yang!"
"this!"
Wei Jin was speechless, he really hadn't thought about it.
Yup!
Am I really blinded by love?
"Shangguan Mi has never even been to Luojing. He's always been in Hongnong! And he's never been to Qiyang!"
"Cousin, what you mean is! Could it be that Master Liu is lying to me? Isn't he from Qiyang?"
Wei Jin felt a chill in his heart.
But what had he deceived himself about?
Feelings?
Zhao Ji continued, "They just met a few days ago, which means he was in Hongnong a few days ago!"
"He really is lying to me!"
Wei Jin's face turned pale.
"So you guessed right, he's not from Qiyang at all!"
"Then why would he go to Yangcheng? We met him in Yangcheng!" Wei Jin still wanted to find some hope for himself.
"I don't think this whole thing is a coincidence! He can write poetry, but he can't compose prose, and yet he chose to participate in the recommendation!"
"He said he was just bored and walked in because he saw how lively it was!"
Wei Jin subconsciously defended himself.
"I don't believe it. He said his handwriting was the local way, but I think it was intentional!"
"Sister, why did he do this on purpose?"
Wei Jin's heart began to tremble.
"Few people in our Jing Dynasty have names with two characters, but his is a two-character name!"
"Sister, that's not impossible. I heard from Daddy that there's a high-ranking official in the court whose name is just two characters!"
"Okay! If you don't believe this, then I'll tell you something else!"
"He was in Hongnong a few days ago, and you were in Luojing!"
"You went to Yangcheng, and he also went to Yangcheng!"
"You go to the recommendation meeting, and he goes to the recommendation meeting too!"
"You returned to Luojing and met him on the way!"
"As soon as you arrived in Luojing, you came to me and told me that I was the one who taught you how to play the pipa!"
"Do you think there are such coincidences in this world?"
Zhao Ji raised many questions in one breath.
Wei Jin's heart sank to the bottom: "Could it be that he deliberately lied to me?"
The more Zhao Ji spoke, the more she made sense!
I really have to believe it.
"Yes, it must be intentional!"
"Then, what did he lie to me about?"
Wei Jin bit her lip.
"Since the beginning of this year, there have been at least ten marriage proposals from families at the Beiyang Mansion!"
"I don't know, Daddy didn't tell me!"
Wei Jin actually knew it in his heart, but he lied unconsciously.
"Then think about it, if you don't agree, then naturally someone will be thinking about marrying you!"
"Sister, do you mean to say that Master Liu is one of those who proposed marriage?"
Wei Jin already believed what Zhao Ji said.
Yes!
How could there be so many coincidences?
"I believe it's very likely that he knew you and followed you all the way to Yangcheng. I didn't expect you to fall in love with him at first sight and immediately stopped thinking about the suspicious aspects of these things!"
"So his friendship was also a lie to me?"
Wei Jin clearly felt that he had lost the confidence to speak.
"I think that's true. Maybe he's already had his eye on you, but you didn't give him a chance, so he resorted to this desperate measure!"
"Really? As long as his feelings for me are genuine, I'm willing to do this even if all these things are lies!"
Wei Jin's sadness suddenly turned into joy.
"Alas! I'm not worried about anything else. I'm worried about him getting close to you, and what's more important is the family background of the Beiyang Mansion!"
Zhao Ji still expressed her concerns.
"I asked him, and he said he didn't want to be an official!"
Wei Jin began to argue again.
"How many men don't want to be officials? Since they've lied to you about so many things, you certainly can't believe that statement!"
"But even if he gets close to me, if he wants to become an official, he still needs to be recommended!"
"Sister, think about it. If your uncle could just give a heads-up to the high officials in the court, would you still need to worry about recommending him? By then, with the support of Duke Beiyang, you'd be able to start at the seventh rank at the very least."
"Sister, I really don't think that's right!"
"why?"
Zhao Ji felt that her analysis made sense.
"Sister, if he is really the one who proposed marriage before, then his family background may not be inferior to ours, so there is no need to ask Dad for a recommendation! Don't you think so?"
"That does make some sense. A family that can propose marriage to the Duke of Beiyang must be at least of the third rank. I hope my guess is wrong!"
"That doesn't matter, as long as he likes me!"
Wei Jin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Even a little relieved.
He is also in Luojing, so there is no need for me to marry far away!
When the emperor is in a good mood, the family can return from Suzhou.
Isn’t that very close!
"That's right, I think too much!"
Zhao Ji smiled, it seemed to be true.
"Then he's not from Qiyang, his home is in Luojing, so I really should have followed him just now!"
Wei Jin felt a little regretful that he had stayed.
"You are so stupid! Don't you see that something happened at his home? If you go there now, what identity do you have?"
"This!" Wei Jin really didn't think that much.
Andy Lau has a family, and it is really inappropriate for him to go there without knowing why.
"Right! He's a married man, and after he's married, you can go however you want!"
"Well, my cousin is really thoughtful!"
Wei Jin reacted.
"Just stay here with me and feel at ease! If he really arranges his family affairs, he will come to find you naturally!"
"Well, I can't go home now, and I don't know if Daddy is doing well in Suzhou."
Wei Jin felt a little sad.
"Don't worry! There are so many of them, and Suzhou is rich, so nothing will happen!"
"That's good! Oh!"
Wei Jin was alternately happy and sad, feeling a little uneasy.
"Go and get some rest! Isn't it uncomfortable to sleep in someone's arms all night?"
Zhao Ji poked Wei Jin's face.
"Then let Brother Shangguan hold you to sleep!"
Wei Jin was unwilling to be outdone, and only after he spoke out did he realize that his words were very ambiguous.
"I'm not like you! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhao Ji stood up and pretended to hit her.
Wei Jin stood up and ran away.
It’s a good time to sleep. It can be seen that Zhao Ji really wants to spend some time alone with Shangguan Mi!
