WFWC Chapter 51

The Whole Family Went Crazy After Reading My Mind Chapter 51: Dad, I Can Hear My little Sister’s Voice

“Father-in-law, according to historical records, plague usually occurs after war, famine, and disaster. This time, there was no such incident in Jizhou. Why did the plague break out?”

Bai Ji was holding a bag of freshly-picked medicine in his hand. When he turned the corner, he heard the conversation between Lord Ji and Imperial Physician Mu.

His heart skipped a beat. Did he become suspicious so quickly? He didn’t expect that the first person to become suspicious was not the most authoritative Imperial Physician Mu, but Lord Ji.

It is rumored that Lord Ji is a rough man who only knows how to march and fight, but now it seems that is untrue.

Baiji hid in the corner quietly.

Imperial Physician Mu stroked his nonexistent beard habitually and said, “Otherwise, epidemics don’t only appear after disasters; they can also occur in the spring and summer after a warm winter.”

“But this epidemic came so rapidly. Is there a possibility that…” Lord Ji suddenly stopped talking, keenly sensing that someone was eavesdropping in the dark.

So, he changed the subject.

“I see. I was worrying too much.”

Lord Ji walked forward a few steps calmly, saw the corner of Bai Ji’s clothes, sneered, and turned back.

The reason he brought up this matter was to guide Imperial Physician Mu to think about poisoning, but it seemed like he had to wait a little longer.

Here, Madam Ji, holding Ji Hua, met the busy Crown prince. Today he was wearing a dark casual clothes, and his jade-like face showed a bit of fatigue.

For two days, the Crown prince served tea and water, delivered meals and medicine to the people without taking off his clothes, winning the hearts of many people. It was also the first time for the people of Jizhou to see the Crown prince of the dynasty. Seeing him so close to the people, they deeply felt that handing Shengyu’s future in his hands was the wisest choice.

“Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”

When the sleepy Ji Hua heard the word “Crown Prince,” she suddenly became alert. She turned around and saw the Crown Prince, who was personally boiling the medicine soup.

[The Crown Prince is actually a kind and righteous person, and is even more generous to his brothers and sisters. It’s just that the Third Prince is too ambitious and doesn’t want to be inferior to others and live under their control. But it doesn’t matter. After this incident, the Crown Prince’s popularity in the hearts of the people will also increase. The Emperor will also pay more attention to the Crown Prince. ]

[In this life, I have not been replaced. The Third Prince cannot threaten the Ji family, so the Ji family can stand firmly on the side of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is stronger, and the Ji family will have more protection. It would be even better if we can capture the Yin and Yang Elders directly. People like Concubine Qin who are so evil must go to hell.]

After hearing this, Mrs. Ji’s expression became a little heavier.

Even if she knew that the epidemic was caused by Concubine Qin, she could not tell the Crown prince. First, there was insufficient evidence; second, she was shocked; and third, the Crown prince did not trust the Ji family because of the incident on New Year’s Eve.

If she said it rashly, he would only think that the Ji family had bad intentions.

“Madam Ji, please sit down.” The Crown prince stood up and brought a stool to Madam Ji, his eyes full of smiles.

After sitting down, he took out something from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Ji. It was a peace charm.

Mrs. Ji was puzzled.

The Crown prince smiled as gentle as jade: “This item was obtained by Jin after he begged his aunt many times to go to the Huguo Temple. He repeatedly told me to make sure to hand it over to Sister Hua’er.”

“Fortunately, I have accomplished my mission!”

The Crown prince did not say that Bei Hengjin was placed under house arrest in his own courtyard by Princess Xian because he tried to sneak out.

[Is this brat so kind? Nevermind. Just accept it. I’ll give him a life-saving charm later. I guarantee he’ll need it in two years.]

Madam Ji accepted it with a smile: “The prince is thoughtful.”

Not long after, Lord Ji came over and took Ji Hua from Madam Ji, freeing her hands.

“Let me hold her for a while. Madam, you have worked hard.”

Seeing how much Marquis Ji loved Madam Ji, the Crown prince felt envious.

[“Daddy really loves mom. Look, the Crown prince is so envious. The Crown prince has a hard time. Outside, the Third prince wants to get rid of him, and inside, the Second prince wants to snatch his princess. This time when he leaf the capital, the Second prince has plenty of opportunities to meet Lu Qingyan. He has always believed that if he can take down Lu Qingyan, he will have taken down this great helper in the Prime Minister’s Mansion.]

[After the failure of the Full Moon Banquet, the Second Prince will definitely think of another trick. I hope Lu Qingyan is smart and doesn’t fall into his trap. Otherwise, even the gods can’t save her. The Crown Prince will be depressed because of this. Two lovers, one is depressed and sick, and the other is depressed and unhappy. What should they do? ]

Mrs. Ji’s beautiful eyes narrowed, and she couldn’t help but become worried.

The couple held the sleeping Ji Hua in their arms while the Crown prince boiled medicine and chatted with her. Lord Ji wanted to say something several times but finally held back. He had no idea what the Crown prince thought of the Ji family and did not dare to make a rash judgment.

The Crown prince is a smart man. Did he vaguely grasp something?

In the evening, before they parted, the Crown prince suddenly knelt down in front of Lord Ji and his wife, startling them.

“Your Highness, what are you doing? You are really insulting me. Please get up quickly.” Marquis Ji handed the child to Madam Ji and hurried to help the Crown prince.

But he was rejected by the latter. He heard him say sincerely: “I bow to you, you two must accept it.” Then he bowed to Lord Ji.

Lord Ji knew the meaning of the tune as soon as he heard it. The Crown prince’s bow might have two meanings. One was to thank the Ji family on behalf of the people, and the other was to atone for the sin of the Second prince two years ago.

He is a flexible person.

In the evening, Lord Ji declined the invitation to dinner from the prefectural government and took Madam Ji back to the temporary courtyard where they were staying. The family of four sat together to eat.

Ji Hua was sleeping soundly on the soft couch beside her.

Lord Ji had a gloomy face, waiting for Ji Linfeng to confess why he was deceived by An Yan. Madam Ji kicked Ji Linfeng to signal him to tell her, otherwise she would not be able to help him when the old man beat him with a stick.

“Dad, I was bewitched by a ghost. I didn’t know how cunning An Yan was, so I fell into his trap. Next time, I won’t do it again.” Ji Linfeng was so frightened by Lord Ji’s gloomy expression that he didn’t dare to eat. He hung his head tremblingly.

He thought he would be severely criticized by his father, but in the end, he just said “hmm” indifferently.

Ji Linfeng was very surprised, and after he reacted, he couldn’t suppress a smile.

“Hey, isn’t Daddy going to pursue this anymore? Daddy is so nice!” Ji Linfeng suddenly stood up and gave Lord Ji a big hug.

Lord Ji was caught off guard and hugged by him. He blamed him for being unruly, but a smile spread to his eyebrows.

He seemed to understand the love that his daughter spoke of.

The meal was particularly enjoyable.

After dinner, Lord Ji called Ji Yushu to study alone. He asked him solemnly, “Shu’er, tell me honestly, how did you think that this epidemic was related to the Yin and Yang Elders?”

Lord Ji stared at Ji Yushu intently, not missing any expression on his face.

Ji Yushu weighed the pros and cons in his mind, and finally decided to tell the truth, because he suspected that his father could hear it: “Father, it was my little sister who told me, and I can hear her voice.”

Hearing this, Lord Ji’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly burst into laughter. “Hahaha, as expected, as expected!”

This morning, he wanted to try it out, but there were too many people around.

“Dad, you too?”

Lord Ji nodded towards Ji Yushu, smiling: “Haha, Shu’er, not only can I, your father, hear it, but your mother can hear it too. Your mother could hear it before Hua’er was born, so she avoided the disaster of being switched in advance.”

“Huan’er is our treasure. With her, we can avoid further dangers and will never end up dying together on the road because our property was confiscated.”

After the shock, Ji Yushu’s nose felt slightly sour. The surprise came too suddenly, and he didn’t know what to say. Then he heard Lord Ji’s words again.

“Your second brother.”

“He can hear it, too.”

Lord Ji slapped his thigh excitedly and said, “Great, that’s great. Let’s work together to change the fate of the Ji family.”

Ji Yushu smiled in relief. This made sense as to why Daddy was with the Crown prince on New Year’s Eve. And the recipe that Mom suddenly thought of must have been heard from her younger sister.

He was worried all the way, but he never expected that he was just worrying too much.

After talking about it, Lord Ji called Ji Linfeng and Madam Ji to discuss the next plan. If the information is not shared, it may backfire.

Especially the second child, who is a bit stupid and does things without considering the consequence
