The abandoned queen is reborn: she makes the prince cry and seizes the throne!

Chapter 3: Let your third sister marry into the palace?

Ji Mengshu stood up and walked over, and saw Ning Rongzhang lying weakly on the couch, but he did not look as noble as a dragon or a phoenix.

She asked politely, "Sir, are you feeling unwell?"

Ning Rongzhang saw her face clearly and suddenly clenched his fists.

It turned out to be her...

"Thank you for the rescue, Miss."

He quickly came to his senses, stood up and tried to salute.

"No need to be so polite. The young master is seriously injured, so you should take good care of him."

Ji Mengshu changed his previous indifference and smiled as if in spring breeze: "This is my family's villa, there are no people here, you can do whatever you want."

Ning Rongzhang was startled and thanked her again: "Etiquette cannot be abolished. The young lady has shown me such a favor that I am already in tears. How can I overstep my bounds?"

Ji Mengshu stopped talking nonsense and tried to test with a smile: "How could you be hunted by those fierce bandits?"

Ning Rongzhang saw the trace of inquiry in her eyes and said without blinking, "I am a merchant who came to Beijing to buy goods. I met these bandits on the road and they robbed my money. They were afraid that I would report it to the police, so they wanted to kill me."

After saying this, he said gratefully: "If it weren't for you, I would have been killed by the sword."

Ah……

Ji Mengshu knew that something shameful must have happened when he left his fiefdom.

Could it be that this ambitious fellow is already planning to usurp the throne?

She didn't expose him, just watched him act leisurely. When Ning Rongzhang coughed with his fist, she said softly, "My lord, I'm afraid it will take a long time to recover from your injury. If you don't mind, you can stay with me and recover."

Ning Rongzhang was stunned, and his heart beat faster when he looked at those smiling eyes.

He came here to clean up the traitors in his fiefdom, but he didn't expect to be assassinated on the way.

Meeting her was a pleasant surprise...

But she didn't remember who he was at all, which made him a little unhappy.

She had clearly seen him when the late emperor passed away... He even helped her pick plum blossoms. How could she forget him like that?

However, she offered to keep him, which made him happy.

For him, it was a blessing to be able to spend even a moment more with her.

Ning Rongzhang coughed softly and acted flattered: "Then I am sorry to bother you, young lady. I promised to reward you generously before, and now it is time to fulfill my promise."

He took off the dragon-patterned jade from his waist and said solemnly, "I also have some properties in the capital, and Wanbao Pavilion is one of them. Miss, please accept this jade pendant. From now on, you will be half the owner of Wanbao Pavilion."

Ji Mengshu frowned.

The Wanbao Pavilion is a famous auction house in this dynasty. It has developed rapidly in the future and has branches all over the country. Its daily turnover is probably several thousand taels!

Moreover, based on her understanding in her previous life, Wanbao Pavilion is not only a golden rice bowl for making money, but also the most important force in Ning Rongzhang's hands. This jade pendant is a token of trust.

Take this thing to Wanbao Pavilion, and they will do their best to do anything you ask them to do!

In his previous life, Ning Rongzhang must have also encountered this assassination, but he also survived? Just because she brought him back to heal his injuries, he gave her such an important thing?

If someone is too nice to you for no reason... he is either a traitor or a thief!

Although she was jealous, she decisively pushed the jade pendant back: "It's just a small favor, don't worry, young master. I didn't save you for these vulgar things."

Ning Rongzhang grasped the jade that still had her body temperature and slowly closed his palm.

She is worthy of being his favorite girl, upright and noble, just like the plum blossom.

Although she was a little fierce just now, the situation was urgent and her behavior was reasonable.

He was thinking about persuading her to accept it, thinking that he could have business dealings with her in the future, but the servant came in hurriedly: "Miss... Miss Seven, the Second Young Master and the Third Young Master are here!"

Ji Mengshu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Young Master, rest assured. My brother and sister are here, and I will go to see them. You don't need to mention the thank-you gift anymore."

After saying that, she left the room.

Ning Rongzhang stroked the jade pendant, his thin lips almost pressed into a line.

If he cannot give away this half of Wanbao Pavilion, how will he have the chance to meet her after his injury heals?

No matter what, he wanted her to be closer and closer to him, until one day...she would willingly belong to him!

On the other side, Ji Mengshu was completely unaware of Ning Rongzhang's thoughts.

She walked into the flower hall with her servants, and before she could say a word, the sarcastic voice of her third cousin Ji Ningqiu was heard.

"Seventh sister is lucky. With just one word from the ancestor, she can become the queen, second only to the emperor."

She said sarcastically, "But sister, I heard that you kept a gigolo as soon as you arrived at the villa? If you lose your chastity due to love, His Majesty will not want you as his queen."

Ji Mengshu looked at the jealousy in her eyes and her eyes turned cold.

Her third cousin has always been competitive and has been in love with that beast Ning Huaixuan for a long time.

But the second branch had always been in decline, so this marriage never happened to her.

In her previous life, she stuffed so-called evidence of treason into her father's study in order to please Ning Huaixuan, just to exchange for a position as a concubine!

In that case, why not send her to the palace and make her a queen in name only?

"What Third Sister said is exactly what I am worried about."

She did not retort, but twisted the corner of her clothes and pretended to be uneasy: "That young man is indeed good, but the old ancestor insists on having me as the queen, and I don't know what to do... I don't know if the old ancestor is willing to change a daughter of the Ji family to be the queen."

When Ji Ningqiu heard this, her hands holding the teacup began to tremble.

Ji Xiuwen, who was watching the situation from the sidelines, frowned.

Is Ji Mengshu crazy?! Is the man she picked up really her gigolo?!

She even gave up her position as queen for a wild man of unknown origin?

"Ji Mengshu, what do you mean by that? Are you deliberately showing off the favor of our ancestors to humiliate me?!"

But Ji Ningqiu misunderstood and slammed the teacup to the ground: "If it weren't for your reputation as the eldest daughter of the Ji family, His Majesty wouldn't even look at you!"

Ji Mengshu looked at her madness calmly: "Third sister, what you said makes sense. A person as insignificant as me is indeed unworthy of being allowed to enter the palace by the emperor's grace."

"Why don't you behave well in front of the ancestors and His Majesty, so that they will change their minds and let you marry into the palace?"

Ji Ningqiu was so angry that she was shaking all over: "You, you...you are going too far!"

Ji Mengshu is not only the legitimate daughter of the Ji family, but also the most beautiful woman in the capital. Others dare not propose to her, but they only know that she has long been favored by the royal family.

In addition, with the Ji family's careful cultivation, she has the talents and qualities that a noble lady should have. She is outstanding in everything. She has been unable to surpass them since she was young!

Now she has gotten the advantage and is still acting like a good kid, showing off in front of her in a sarcastic way!

She couldn't bear it any longer and was so angry that she wanted to pour the hot tea in the pot on Ji Mengshu's face!

Ji Xiuwen hurriedly stopped her: "Third sister, don't mess around! Meng Shu is the queen appointed by our ancestors, how can you be so frivolous in front of her!"

He turned around and smiled to smooth things over: "Seventh sister, Third sister is just confused, you don't have to make a fuss... Second brother knows that you have always been dignified and sensible, how could you be deceived by a man of unknown origin?"

Ji Mengshu lowered his eyes, smiling: "Don't worry, second brother, I was just joking. I think third sister was just worried about me and said the wrong thing in a hurry."

After calming down and thinking carefully, she realized that she had been rash. Not to mention the consequences of Ning Rongzhang's identity being exposed, if her father really thought that she had lost her virginity, he would probably strangle her to death.

Fortunately, these two people helped her out and thought she was just showing off.

Ji Ningqiu also calmed down, turned his head away and stopped talking.

The three of them pretended to be polite for a while, and then Ji Xiuwen took Ji Ningqiu away.

Before leaving, he smiled and left a box of rouge: "Seventh sister, this is the good stuff I sent someone to bring from the Western Regions. Try it to see if it suits you. If you like it, I'll send more."
