Quick Wear: The troublesome female supporting role was locked up by the boss and cried

Chapter 135 The childhood sweetheart who deceived the feelings of the sinister official (23)

The next second—

The door opened again. Ji Chutang turned around with red eyes in surprise. It was Ji's mother who came in with red and swollen eyes.

Ji's mother and Concubine Shu were good friends when they were still in the boudoir.

Later they became sister-in-law.

The relationship has always been very good.

Ji's mother forced herself to stay awake, holding a bowl of stewed soup, walked to Ji Chutang and placed the soup on the desk.

Her temper was unusually gentle, and she spoke softly, "Honglang, you've been in the study for a whole day, you can't let your body collapse. The Concubine Shu still needs us, you can't collapse."

Ji Hong's hands, which were covering his face and sobbing, froze, and after a long while they were moved away. The man, who was crying with tears streaming down his face, showed an ugly smile.

"I understand, ma'am, you should go to bed early. I will stay in the study today, so don't worry."

Even though he was in great pain inside, Ji Hong still put a smile on his face for his wife. He was also worried that his emotions would affect his wife, so he didn't even dare to go back to his room to sleep.

Ji's mother looked so sad that she couldn't control her tears.

Then, without stopping, they left the study, covering their mouths. The whole family was filled with sadness, but were afraid of bringing sadness to each other.

Ji Chutang didn't get much information from Ji's father.

I only knew that news suddenly came from the palace.

The Concubine Shu was banished to the cold palace, and the Third Prince was also reprimanded and confined to his house. The remarks about murdering the Crown Prince were entirely due to the Crown Princess's rude and cold treatment of the Third Prince.

It was spread by someone with ulterior motives.

As for what exactly happened and how it all unfolded, it is unknown.

The emperor also avoided talking about this matter.

He didn't even attend the morning court today.

Her brother was still studying outside, not in an academy in the capital, but in an academy founded by a great scholar among the people - Wanxiang Academy.

Wanxiang Academy is located in another county, thousands of miles away from Shangjing.

The news of going to the capital had not spread so quickly.

But when her brother finds out, he will probably rush back without stopping.

Ji Chutang was troubled by the current situation of the Ji family. She even wanted to ask the Regent for help.

Even though she and the Regent were only a passing acquaintance.

But she restrained her impulse.

She had no position or leverage to ask the regent for help.

Ji Chutang bit his lower lip lightly, his expression extremely conflicted.

She knew that the Regent had no reason to help her and it would probably be in vain for her to go.

And...if she really went this far, what would the regent think of her? I'm afraid she would never have a chance to realize her idea.

Ji Chutang's proud, sensitive and inferior heart kept beating up and down.

She tried to find good friends to get information.

But apart from Wei Layin, she had no other good friends. She was sad to find that she only had one close friend when she needed help.

Fortunately...she still has a good friend.

When Wei Layin received Ji Chutang's visiting card, she accepted it without hesitation, unlike those families who were eager to cut off ties with the Ji family.

The Wei family still treated Ji Chutang as a normal guest and did not show any disdain.

Even though the Ji family is now on a tightrope, no one knows whether the Ji family will be implicated by the Empress in the palace and end up having their property confiscated tomorrow.

The Wei family didn't react at all.

As usual, he only regarded Ji Chutang as Wei Layin's good friend, and the Ji family was just the family of his eldest daughter's friend.

Of course, the Wei family has the confidence as a prominent family.

It also has the character of aristocratic families.

Wei Layin personally went to the door to pick her up. When she saw Ji Chutang for the first time, this carefree woman couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.

She felt sorry for Ji Chutang.

Ji Chutang had indeed looked haggard these past two days, and his exhaustion naturally showed on his appearance.

Her haggardness was obvious.

Wei Layin gently held Ji Chutang's wrist and patted the back of her hand soothingly, with heartache in her eyes.

She naturally knew the situation of the Ji family.

So she immediately checked what happened.

However, she was unable to find any useful information, so she could only ask her connections in the palace to take care of Concubine Shu in the cold palace.

There is a waterside pavilion in the Wei Mansion that extends to the center of the lake. There is a veil hanging lightly, vaguely covering the figure in the center of the pavilion.

Ji Chutang's eyes were slightly red, his face was haggard, and he spoke to Wei Layin while trying to hold back his tears.

"Ayin, what should I do? Can you help me? Auntie wouldn't do such a thing. She doesn't have the courage."

Wei Lain had a complicated expression on his face.

She felt sorry for Ji Chutang, and she also knew that what Ji Chutang said was true and that Concubine Shu would never do such a thing.

In the capital city of Shangjing, those who just follow the crowd are all fools.

Anyone with a bit of brains and intelligence knows that this is just a fight among the princes when they grow up.

Even though his mother's family is weak, the Third Prince is still a threat.

However, in this matter, the emperor did not react or express anything, and did not reveal anything wrong.

She had no other options.

Faced with Ji Chutang's pain, she could only comfort her and tell her seriously and clearly that their Wei family had no say in this matter.

She had no other options.

But she has asked her connections in the palace to take care of Concubine Shu, so there is no need to worry about her safety.

Ji Chutang could only shed tears of gratitude for this.

She knew, she was clear, that Wei Laine had tried her best and was doing everything she could to help her.

Wei Lain couldn't do anything extra.

Leave the Wei family.

Ji Chutang, who still had nothing to show for it, was in a bad mood. He sat in the carriage on the way home and closed his eyes to rest, but he couldn't calm down.

The sounds of hawking along the street, pedestrians talking, and children playing are all audible.

Lift a corner of the curtain.

The daily lives of ordinary people are exposed to the sun. There is a young woman holding a child, and the mother-in-law beside her is talking to her with a smile.

A young man was chatting and laughing with his friends, arm in arm.

There were also people training their guard dogs. The dog was grinning and sticking out its tongue, and its owner was rubbing its head.

This is probably what ordinary happiness is like.

But such happiness made Ji Chutang feel dazzling. She suppressed the envy in her eyes and felt extremely irritated.

She was born in an awkward position of being neither up nor down.

She doesn't care about these bits of happiness and sweetness. She wants to be high and mighty. This is what she should really pursue.

Let down the curtain and don't think too much.

Her eyes and her heart had long been blinded to the light of day by day-to-day admonitions.

How to see clearly the truth about how to obtain happiness.

The carriage had not gone far when it suddenly stopped.

When the coachman heard the scolding, he hurriedly explained that someone was blocking the road. Huarui lifted the curtain and went out to check the situation.

After a while, he returned.

His face was filled with anger and disgust, and his tone revealed disgust and worry:

"Miss, it was the useless son of Marquis Lin'an who blocked our way. He refused to let us go no matter what and said he hoped you would go down to talk, otherwise he would not let us go."

Ji Chutang was already in a bad mood, and when she suddenly heard that this guy dared to stop their carriage, her pretty face trembled with anger.
