Therefore, the jade could have been stolen by Lu Li, or someone from Gan Qing Palace could have stolen it and passed it to Lu Li. No matter which was it, the people at Gan Qing Palace should be properly re-trained.
The moment he thought of how Lu Li took the jade, and told such a big lie, Ji Wu Jiu’s first reaction was actually not angry, but felt lucky. The anger in his heart also dissipated quite a lot, and decided to act stupid this time round, and not punish Lu Li. Then after, when he thought of how the empress dowager wants to use the method of placing a green hat on to her own son to scheme her daughter in law, he got angered and slammed the table.
Although he initially decided to be a filial son, but it doesn’t mean he will allow himself to be controlled by the empress dowager.
The person beyond the mosquito net seems to be disturbed by his action, and made some noise indicating that she is uncomfortable.
Ji Wu Jiu then quietly removed his outer clothes and climbed on to the bed as well, squirming into the blanket, and held Ye Zhen Zhen tightly in his arms.
