Song Jing nodded her head, “It’s fine.”
The county princess didn’t expect Song Jing to really agree, and a sneer flashed in her eyes, which was quickly curbed again.
Song Jing’s head suddenly came from a voice as warm as water, “The two of you can go as far as you want, there is no need to be serious, Jing’er, I will teach you.”
The sound of Jing’er made Song Jing’s whole body tremble, this voice was too familiar, after many years she could often think that one day she could hear it again, but now this moment was as unreal as a dream.
The county princess’ face stiffened and she curled her red lips, pretending to smile, “That’s not possible, cousin’s horse skills are superb, this is not a sincere way to make me lose, I’ll give in to some of it then.”
Song Jing raised her eyes, “That is not necessary, since there are words in the first place, and why to let.”
This is exactly what the magistrate wanted, she curled her red lips and smiled faintly, “So many years Jing sister is still as stubborn as ever, she hates to give way, then I will not be polite.”
The county princess looked at the bad king’s son, “Cousin, Qingfeng also does not know what happened, yesterday for no reason crazy, cousin help me to see if it is good?”
Huai Wang Shizi nodded and looked at Song Jing, “If there is something you don’t understand, feel free to ask me.”
“Thank you, Prince Huai.” From the beginning to the end, Song Jing did not dare to raise her eyes to look at Huai Wang Shi Zi, until people walked away, only then she quietly sighed with relief, could not help but look up, the figure had already walked away.
“Let’s go.”
Painted eyebrows picked a gentle mare for Song Jing, carefully told Song Jing precautions, and led Song Jing to walk two circles.
Not far away, the county princess hooked her lips at the sight of this, pulling the Huai Wang Shizi to ask questions.
About an hour later, Song Jing dismounted from her horse, her body had not yet stood still and there was a flash of something on her head, fortunately, her hand was quick to drag Song Jing, and when she looked back, it was a sharp arrow.
“Yeah, are you okay?” A woman pretended to apologize for looking at Song Jing, but with a smile under her eyes, “This is my first time touching an arrow, I didn’t control it well for a while, didn’t scare you, right?”
The girl in front of her was good friends with the county lord, so she thought she was deliberately teasing Song Jing.
After learning how to ride a horse there was archery left, which happened to be not far away.
Song Jing’s small face slightly white, indeed some angry, if not painted eyebrows are bound to be wounded.
The next moment suddenly heard the woman scream, an arrow steadily passed by her ear, shooting off the gold hairpin on her head.
“Jiang Qinge, what are you mad about?” He Wanru, her hair scattered at the temples, glared angrily at the girl who had just shot the arrow.
Jiang Qinge, in a simple riding outfit, with a beautiful face and excellent features, held a bow in her hand and smiled towards He Wanru.
“Ah, I haven’t touched the arrow for a long time, so I didn’t pay attention for a while and missed, is Miss He okay?”
“You!” He Wanru’s face changed slightly, angrily glaring at Jiang Qinge, where can not understand this, partial to take Jiang Qinge can not help, can only stomp his feet and leave.
Jiang Qinge turned over and walked to Song Jing, “Are you okay?”
“Thank you, Miss Jiang, for your help.” Song Jing shook her head and smiled faintly at Jiang Qinge.
“She just did it on purpose, she didn’t stop bullying people, she took it out on the other people when she was in a bad mood.” Jiang Qingge knew Song Jing like the back of her hand and looked at her in awe, “This is the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful woman, if you don’t mind, call me Qingge.”
Jiang Qinge is a valiant nature, the daughter of a martial arts general, her usual style is also cynical of evil, does not like those curves, the smile on her face is very clear.
Song Jing followed and nodded, “Good, my name is Song Jing.”
“Sister Jing!” Jiang Qinge winked at Song Jing, chatting and chatting between the two of them got closer, and they had a great interest in meeting each other.
The two of them went to the archery range together, and Jiang Qinge’s archery skills were excellent, not at all like a boy’s. She opened her bow and shot an arrow steadily in the center of the bullseye.
Song Jing couldn’t help but applaud, “Qinge’s archery skills can’t be found second among women.”
Jiang Qinge smiled shyly, “Sister Jing has flattered me, I just have more contact than others, but unfortunately I am not a man, so I cannot go to battle to kill the enemy.”
Jiang Qinge’s eyes flashed a flash of regret, pulled the arrow string tightly, as soon as she let go of the arrow feathers in her hand, she immediately shot towards the arrow target, but coincidentally knocked down the arrow, both arrows fell to the ground.
The arrow is definitely not practiced overnight, and that arrow was done on purpose.
At this time a deputy general came over, it is the deputy general Li who taught archery.
“Each person an arrow target, ten arrows must be left on the arrow target to pass.”
Jiang Qinge heard the ten arrows quickly hit the red center, and received the appreciation of Vice General Li, He Wanru was also not willing to show weakness, all ten arrows were inserted on the arrow target.
In a short time, Vice General Li let the failed ones stay alone to practice, Jiang Qinge was a bit chagrined, “I should have known to stay with you.”
Song Jing smiled lightly, “I’m fine, you go to the front to practice the other side.”
Jiang Qingge had to nod.
Most of the group left behind had never touched an arrow before, so it was hard to get the hang of it for a while, so it took some time.
Song Jing gritted her teeth and pulled the bow open, her two hands were tense, and when her hands were loose the arrow fell directly to the ground.
“Miss, be careful of hurting your hand.” Painted eyebrows at the side softly admonished.
When Song Jing raised her eyes, she saw that not far away was the county princess who was struggling to pull open the bow and arrow, and Huai Wang’s son was guiding him carefully, without a trace of impatience on his face, so she couldn’t help but look at her twice.
I do not know how long the practice, Song Jing’s mind is still stuck in that scene just now, can not linger.
When Vice General Li saw that these delicate little girls couldn’t even lift their bows and arrows, not to mention the difficulty of inserting all ten arrows into the arrow target, he summoned a dozen guards to come over to practice with him.
“What are you thinking about?” A low, cold voice suddenly came from above her head.
Song Jing was shocked, both hands were held, slowly pulling the bowstring at all can not see the person behind, but the voice is somewhat familiar, there is a faint fragrance.
“Concentrate!”
Song Jing back tense, forehead has begun to penetrate the dense delicate beads of sweat accelerated, in front of so many people to find a crack into the good.
Swish!
An arrow hit the bull’s-eye, Song Jing could not help but smile faintly, looked back at the rear.
Only to see the man wearing a silver mask, only two eyes were revealed, but those eyes were more brilliant than the stars.
Song Jing turned back, “Why is cousin uncle here?”
Zhao Xi’s eyes flashed a flash of surprise, hooked lips shallow smile, a moment of brilliance, even with the mask on, Zhao Xi’s aura around the body is also very outstanding.
“Come over and see if you are being bullied.” Zhao Xi bluntly looked at Song Jing, after a pause and said, “I’m going away for the next two days, you take care of yourself.”
Song Jing nodded her head.
The man behind her raised his arm and taught Song Jing to hold the arrow, Song Jing held her breath and when her hand was released the bow and arrow flew out with a bang.
I must say that Zhao Xi is a good master, helping Song Jing practice for two hours, Song Jing progressed rapidly, although she couldn’t hit the bull’s eye, she could barely get on the edge of the target.
At that end, Vice General Li came over, Song Jing’s heart tightened, and in her ears was Zhao Xi’s low voice, “I’m leaving first.”
Song Jing nodded haphazardly and practiced for another hour or so before barely passing, but both arms were already too heavy to lift.
“Not bad, very fast progress.”
When he looked up, he saw the Prince of Huai come over, glanced at the arrow target, and smiled faintly at Song Jing.
Song Jing’s face turned red, “Thank you for your praise, it’s Song Jing’s foolishness, she can’t get into the eyes.”
Huaiwang Shizi frowned, seeing her subconsciously retreating, he couldn’t help but lower his voice, “Sister Jing, do you really not remember me, why are you avoiding me at all times?”
“I’m just the daughter of a sinful minister, so it’s better for you to avoid me.”
Song Jing is aggrieved, that year she sent out countless letters, thinking of Huai Wang Shizi, but Huai Wang Shizi left without saying goodbye, did not even leave a word, and now see each other again that lump is stored.
“That year I was sent away by my grandfather overnight, the situation is urgent, a moment also can not say, later I sent people on to find you, only to know that the Marquis of Zhongyi House had an incident.”
Huai Wang Shizi said his voice was a little choked up, inexplicably heartbroken the woman in front of him.
“Later you wrote back that you followed the county princess Linshang to the temple ….”
Song Jing snapped her head up, “I have never been to the temple, who told you this? You said you sent someone to look for me, why did I not even have a letter back, I wrote you a whole hundreds of letters…”
Song Jing’s face was shocked and more than that, she was angry, who was behind the block?
Huaiwang Shizi also froze, and was about to speak but saw Fianhe County Master walking over, “So much time has passed since then, who can still find out, the most important thing is that we can still reunite now, Jing sister, don’t you think so?”
Song Jing’s small face turned white and stared at the Fibrous and County Lord frowning.
“Cousin, let’s go first ….”
“You go back first, I still have some words to talk to her alone.” Huai Wang Shizi’s gaze was fixed on Song Jing.
The small face of Fian He County Master stiffened slightly, froze then smiled, “Okay, cousin I’ll wait for you in front, today’s aunt told us to go back quickly.”
The Huai Wang Shizi nodded casually, Song Jing pursed her lips, only to feel that this scene is a bit harsh.
Huai Wang Shizi looked askance at the painted eyebrows, while the painted eyebrows glanced at Song Jing, Song Jing nodded, and only then did the painted eyebrows retreat a few dozen steps and turn their backs.
“Sister Jing….” Huai Wang Shizi couldn’t help but pour out his stomach full of words, from the time he saw Song Jing yesterday, his whole mind was filled with her.
“I will definitely ask grandfather to think of a way to deal with the matter of County Princess Lin Shang.”
Song Jing is more shocked than elated at the moment, her heart is complicated as she looks at Huai Wang Shizi, as if happiness is not real enough.
I don’t know how long the conversation lasted, Song Jing gradually opened her heart and resumed her lively and spirited past, “Thank you, Shizi.”
“In private as when you were a child, call me Sui brother is.” Huaiwang Shizi looked at Song Jing dotingly.
Song Jing nodded, “Brother Sui.”
When they returned to the house in the afternoon, Song Jing’s mood was obviously much higher, and the corners of her mouth were pleasant.
Song Rou hummed and looked at Song Jing with disdain, at first it was deliberately pretending to be noble to get Huai Wang Shizi’s attention, bitch!
“Just now, I saw Shi Zi brother and fifth sister chatting happily, I wonder what they were talking about?” Song Rou smiled and pried, “Fifth sister has been smiling all the way, is there something good going on, it’s better to have fun alone than to have fun together, why don’t you tell us?”
Song Jing glanced at Song Rou, “Don’t worry about it, third sister, I always have my own ideas.”
Song Rou rubbed her handkerchief tightly and stared at Song Jing with hatred, what are you proud of?
When she returned to the Zhongling courtyard, she said, “Miss, just now the king sent a horse for Miss to practice diligently in the next few days.”
Song Jing nodded and learned very seriously, there were very few people in the whole Huai Wang Mansion who did not know how to ride a horse, and they were all proud of their horsemanship, so it was very difficult to find a rival among the women because of the exquisite horsemanship of the county princess.
If you want to win her is as difficult as the sky, but I do not know how Zhao Xi is so confident.
After practicing for several days, Song Jing was quite successful, at least much better than at the beginning.
The time passed day by day, and during the daytime, King Huai’s son was able to spare a few hours to teach Song Jing.
“If you can find a way to win them, the emperor will be happy and may pardon the Marquis of Zhongyi.”
Huaiwang Shizi had taken the trouble to inquire about this and also wanted to help Song Jing.
Song Jing’s eyes lit up, “Really?”
The first one to be solved is the county head of Fianhe, if you want to replace Dayong to meet the war.
The whole day Song Jing was watching Fianhe county princess, looking at her posture, very envious.
The county princess turned down her horse, glanced at Song Jing not far away and hooked her lips.
“Even she wants to win against you, she’s just dreaming!” He Wanru couldn’t help but snicker, “County Lord, these two days the son seems to be taking care of her a lot, not to mention horse skills just with that little face, a man can’t help but be bewitched, it’s only been a few days…”
He Wanru and the Yu family have some relatives, especially with Yu Yue, is because of Song Jing, Yu Yue was sent to the frontier, this debt He Wanru remembered.
The county head of Feihe heard a pause, suddenly reached out and touched the back of a horse and looked at He Wanru.
“That face is indeed beautiful, but the words have been said can not be retracted, if I race with her, even if I win is not a victory, only blame her insensitive non-competitive, have to think of a way to avoid this competition.”
Seeing the Prince of Huai and Song Jing together, Fianhe County Master was as disturbed as scratching her heart and liver, and was no longer irritated all the time.
He Wanru immediately understood the meaning of the county princess, “What the county princess said is very true.”
When Song Jing went back to the house, Song Rou was pulled by a girl on the side to say this, Song Rou rarely taught a friend, naturally very willing to accompany, so let Song Jing go back first.
Song Jing didn’t think much about it, she got into the carriage and closed her eyes, not knowing what was going on in her head, when suddenly Jiang Qinge lifted the curtain and came in, looking at Song Jing with a smile on her face.
“I don’t like to get involved with my concubine sisters, and the noise hurts my head, so I came here to hide from you.”
Song Jing immediately laughed and said, “Then we are just the right company, come on.”
Jiang Qingge sat aside, propped up her chin and looked at Song Jing, with a face of gossip and curiosity, “These few days I saw Huai Wang’s son taking good care of you, very different from the others, and Fianhe County Master was even more hostile to you, what exactly is the relationship between you two?”
Song Jing was surprised, Jiang Qinge smiled, “Don’t try to hide it from me, anyone can see it.”
“How dare I hide it, but perhaps everyone is thinking too much, I just know them since we were young and haven’t seen each other for several years, so we know each other better than others.” Song Jing explained with a smile.
Jiang Qingge nodded, looking as if she had suddenly realized, and then said, “The county princess is not an easy one, the way she looks at the Prince of Huai…”
Jiang Qinge wanted to say something but stopped, “That look can’t wait to eat the Huai Wang Shizi, suddenly appearing you, the county princess may not let you go, you should be careful.”
Song Jing smiled faintly, “You do not worry, I understand.”
Jiang Qinge accompanied Song Jing to talk for a while and then reached the fork in the road, after getting off the carriage, the painted eyebrows got on the car.
“Miss, behind is Miss He’s carriage, following Miss all the way, but He’s house is in the southwest, obviously not going back to the house.”
Song Jing lifted the curtain and took a look, and there was indeed a carriage behind her, following closely.
Song Jing suddenly whispered to the painting eyebrow and murmured two words in her ear, the painting eyebrow nodded and quickly lifted the curtain and said to the carriage driver, “Stop at the front, Miss wants to try the pastries of Furong Courtyard.”
“Yes!”
After Painted Eyebrows got off the carriage, the carriage continued on, turned a few corners and paused several times before finally winding into an alleyway that was a necessary route for the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, and there weren’t many people coming and going.
The curtain of the carriage behind was also raised, He Wanru glanced around and took out a tiny needle from his pocket, before he could do so he heard the horse neighing, He Wanru’s body was unstable and hit the wall of the car directly, immediately dizzy.
“Ah!”
He Wanru has not yet reacted, the carriage as if out of control, rampant, He Wanru clutching the carriage wall, almost was thrown out.
“What’s going on?!” He Wanru screamed loudly, her face was pale, and her head had been hit with several big bags.
When He Wanru lifted the curtain, she almost fainted, the carriage driver’s position had been empty for a long time, and the horse was running like crazy without its restraints.
“Help…”
Not far away Song Jing coldly watched this scene, just let the painting eyebrows off, is to find a carriage like confuse the back of the carriage, He Wanru really uneasy good intention.
Soon the painted eyebrows came back, and Song Jing asked, “Wasn’t discovered, right?”
“Miss, don’t worry, absolutely not a single trace can be found, that needle into the body less than half an hour after evaporated.”
Song Jing then nodded her head.
Not long after the movement of the He family carriage in the alley attracted the attention of many people, Song Jing slowly got off the carriage.
“Miss?”
Song Jing smiled faintly, “It’s not a problem.”
The horse hit a wall, the ground was covered with blood, panting and lying on the ground, still twitching twice every now and then.
The people in the carriage were already scared silly, Song Jing pretended to be anxious, “Miss He, are you okay?”
He Wanru’s internal organs were all upside down, her body was injured, and she had fallen into a coma.
Song Jing stepped forward to pick apart the rubble with her bare hands and worked with the painting eyebrows to save He Wanru, and the crowd couldn’t help but applaud.
“This girl is really kind-hearted, even despite the risk of life to save others.”
Song Jing rushed to the painting eyebrows, “Quickly go to find a doctor!”
“Yes!”
Song Jing put He Wanru in her arms and ripped open her skirt to bandage He Wanru, many people were watching, and many praised Song Jing.
Not long afterwards, He Wanru woke up with severe pain all over her body, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Song Jing and couldn’t help but frown.
“Miss He, are you all right?” Song Jing lowered her head and asked with concern, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked with a faint smile, instantly angering He Wanru.
“It was you who deliberately set me up and made me frighten the horse!” He Wanru finally came back to her senses, struggled to brace herself and pushed Song Jing away.
Song Jing’s smile was withdrawn and she looked at He Wanru with an innocent face, “Miss He, you and I have no enemies, why would I set you up?”
“You!” He Wanru choked, and suddenly something slipped across her face, warm and slightly fishy, reaching out to touch it, there was indeed thick blood.
He Wanru froze.
“It’s okay, just two more scars on your face, ask a doctor to take a look at it later to make sure it won’t leave scars.” Song Jing whispered kindly and advised.
He Wanru’s whole body was tense, she was going to harm Song Jing, but she didn’t expect that she had scared the horse, and her face had more wounds.
“Ah! I’m going to kill you, it’s all your fault….” He Wanru had been proud of her looks since she was a child, and now that she was injured, she was momentarily on the verge of collapse.
Song Jing’s weak body could not withstand it, so she fell to the ground and was taught a lesson by He Wanru. He Wanru reached out and gave a fierce push, Song Jing glanced at the person behind her, closed her eyes and collided with the wall, her body fell to the ground with a softness.
“Sister Jing’er….” Song Shiyan’s face was cold, just at that moment the painted eyebrows arrived with the doctor and supported Song Jing, “Miss, are you alright?”
He Wanru still didn’t know enough and was going to go up to pull Song Jing, when she suddenly fell heavily to the ground with a pain in her feet.
“This person is too unreasonable, it’s obvious that she scared the horse, Miss Song was kind enough to save her, but she is good enough to bully Miss Song instead, what kind of upbringing is this in the He family!”
The crowd was pointing at He Wanru to fight for Song Jing.
He Wanru’s face twisted as she listened to the people’s comments, “Nonsense, it’s obvious that she set me up and deliberately caused me to scare the horse.
Song Jing held herself up and looked at Song Shiyan, “Grandfather, it is Jing’er who has caused trouble again…”
Song Shiyan learned the truth from the people’s mouths, and quickly asked the maids to carry Song Jing back to the house, and pointed at He Wanru.
“Go and send someone to send a letter to the He family!”
He Wanru was shocked and angry, glaring at Song Shiyan, “She is the one who set me up, you must give an explanation, no one is allowed to leave!”
Song Shiyan was scolded by a young girl pointing at his nose in public, his face looked ugly for a while.
“Miss He, my Miss was kind enough to save you, why are you biting back and falsely accusing my Miss, where exactly did my Miss offend you?”
The painted eyebrows were so eloquent that they angered He Wanru with a few words.
“If she hadn’t harmed me, how would I have scared the horse?” He Wanru was so righteous and strong that she had forgotten the environment she was in.
“Miss He, this is the road to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, and He’s residence is in the northwest, dare I ask why Miss He is here, my Miss is a weak woman, how can she be capable of calculating a wild horse?”
Painted eyebrows repeatedly rhetorical questions made He Wanru dumbfounded, only then did she see her situation, her face turned red with anger and glared fiercely at Painted eyebrows.
“Yes, I just heard the sound of Miss He seems to be arguing with someone, Miss Song’s carriage in the back of the alley, which will calculate the front of Miss He, and moreover Miss He out of trouble can be avoided, and why go to save Miss He, find a doctor to look at.”
There is an okay bar in the crowd shaking his head, very puzzled, how to say it is not like Song Jing calculating He Wanru.
“Nonsense, I’m alone in my carriage, where’s the argument?” He Wanru shouted.
“Why did Miss He dispatch her maids and come here alone? I seemed to see a man’s figure just now, and it is no wonder that Miss He dispatched her maids and came alone to the opposite place from the He Mansion….”
The crowd was chattering, He Wanru jumped in anger at the words, a fishy sweetness welled up in her throat, just then the He family came, it was Mrs. He who came with her maids.
“Mother….” When He Wanru saw Madam He, she pounced on her as if she had seen a savior.
Mrs. He was shocked and angry at first glance at He Wanru’s appearance and looked up and down, “What is going on here?”
He Wanru trembled and pointed at Song Shiyan angrily, biting down on Song Jing, “It was the Song girl who deliberately caused me to scare the horse…”
“Miss He, don’t talk nonsense, so many people around are watching, it was you who pushed Jing down and injured her, but how can you bite back, although the Marquis of Zhongyi’s house is not as good as He’s house, it is not at the mercy of anyone!”
Song Shiyan had the support of the people, so he would not allow He Wanru to speak nonsense.
“Madam He, in front of everyone’s eyes, Miss He insisted on slandering the Marquis of Zhongyi, the Marquis of Zhongyi will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.”
Mrs. He has been in charge of the family for many years, before coming to hear the matter clearly, and listen to the people’s mouths, suddenly displeased can only hold back not to send.
“Marquis, my daughter may have been frightened and spoke out of turn, not intentionally slandering the marquis.”
He Wanru immediately wanted to retort but was suppressed by Mrs. He, who added, “The He family will definitely investigate this matter clearly, and when Wanru is feeling better, she will definitely give an explanation to the fifth girl, and besides, Wanru came here to go to the Jingzhao Yin residence to enjoy the fun, but she just happened to scare the horse.”
Mrs. He’s mind was spinning fast and she quickly thought of an excuse for He Wanru, after all, the next door to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence was the residence of Beijing Zhaoyin, so it was normal to pass by here.
The girl from the next door is still in Mingluo Hall and has not yet returned, so how could Miss He…”
The woman’s face tightened and she glared angrily at the painted eyebrows, who shrank and quickly bowed her head.
Mrs. He was holding He Wanru in her arms, and He Wanru was glaring at Painted Eyebrow, wanting to strangle her, but she was being held down by Mrs. He so that she wouldn’t jump up.
Madam He held back and held back, if this went on any longer it was bound to be bad for He Wanru, so she said, “Marquis, I will definitely pay a visit another day, there may be some misunderstanding here, so I will leave now.”
Mrs. He gave a look, and the maid immediately helped He Wanru into the carriage and left, and when she left, she instructed to take the remaining ruins away as well, and to check it out by the way.
Song Shiyan hummed twice and went back to the house, just as Song Jing also woke up, “Grandfather…”
“You should rest for two days, don’t meddle in the future.” Song Shiyan was scolded by a junior today, causing a stomach full of anger, and spoke louder, obviously relocating his anger.
Song Jing raised her eyes and reminded, “Grandfather, this matter is the fault of the He family, and the He family is in a position of great strength, He Wanru is the first daughter of Mrs. He, and is usually very spoiled, after all, the He family owes the Marquis of Zhongyi, so many people can see it, if there is anything wrong with the granddaughter, the He family is bound to suffer from controversy.”
Song Shiyan narrowed his eyes and suddenly his eyes lit up, indeed he can use this matter to let the He family for the benefit of the Marquis of Zhongyi.
“Marquis, He girl in the Ming Hui Hall is not less bullying Miss, embarrassed Miss in public, causing Miss nearly injured.” The painted eyebrows interjected appropriately.
“Is that true?” Song Shiyan asked.
Song Jing nodded, “At first, granddaughter thought there was some misunderstanding, but I didn’t know that Miss He was instigated by someone.”
Song Shiyan quickly thought of the Jingzhao Yin residence next door, his face slightly sunken, and quickly said, “In these few days, you should stay at the residence to recuperate properly, and mention anything you lack to your eldest aunt, and leave the matter of the He family to grandfather.”
After saying that Song Shiyan quickly left the Zhongling courtyard, Song Jing rubbed her head, “What is the situation now?”
“As Miss expected, as soon as Lady He returned to the house, she sent people to spread rumors that Miss deliberately damaged Miss He’s reputation.” Painted eyebrows whispered, “Miss, Miss He is not lightly injured this time, she may not let Miss go.”
Song Jing sat on the table and reached out to hold the cup, “Even if I don’t offend her, when will He Wanru let me go, she was the one who bullied people first.”
The painted eyebrows were silent, what she said was also true, He Wanru had acted against Song Jing in every way, it was right to teach her a lesson.
“Spread the word, the fifth girl of the Song family accidentally crashed into Miss He’s good deed, Miss He deliberately climbed and bit the fifth girl of Song, the fifth girl of Song couldn’t bear the injustice and attempted to commit suicide.”
Song Jing narrowed her eyes, she didn’t believe that Madam He alone could control the whole situation!
The entire Kyoto city was condemning the He family, and Mrs. He was so anxious that her mouth was covered with several large blisters, looking at He Wanru with a cold face.
“Tell me, what exactly happened that day?”
He Wanru’s face was wrapped in gauze, but fortunately the doctor said it would not leave a scar, otherwise she would have made Song Jing pay for it.
He Wanru glanced at Madam He vaguely and hesitated for half a day before she stammered out the story, “Mother, this is definitely a ploy by Song Jing, she must not be spared!”
Even though the Marquis of Zhongyi is not treated well, you have taken advantage of the situation in front of so many people, aren’t you asking for trouble if you go after Miss Song?”
He Wanru was also a bit anxious, “Mother, then what should we do…”
He Wanru was already fourteen years old and was about to be married, if she lost her reputation after such an incident, which family would dare to take her?
Mrs. He had been snooping around privately, but she hadn’t noticed any connection with Song Jing, so perhaps it was really an accident.
“Tomorrow morning, come with me to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence to make amends and apologize, and by the way, go to see Miss Song’s fifth daughter.” Mrs. He still had doubts and could not rest without seeing Song Jing.
He Wanru was a little reluctant to hear this, but she had to hold back and nodded her head, but in her heart she hated Song Jing very much.
At that moment, the maid entered the door and whispered something in Mrs. He’s ear, and her face changed dramatically.
“How is the person?” Madam He never expected that Song Jing could not stand the rumors and tried to kill herself.
“Madam, fortunately we found her in time, she is fine, but outside…” The maid looked at He Wanru with a desire to speak.
Mrs. He’s face was blue, and she knew without mentioning it that the outside world must have nothing good to say about He Wanru. Mrs. He immediately ordered, “Quickly go prepare some top quality herbs, go to the treasury and bring the 100-year ginseng, and also the blood swallow that the Queen gave her.”
“Yes!”
He Wanru looked confused, “Mother, what’s wrong?”
Madam He stood up, “Let me ask you, did you target Miss Song Wu in Mingliao Hall?”
He Wanru quickly nodded her head under Madam He’s questioning.
Mrs. He’s face became more and more ugly, pointing at He Wanru, “You’re confused, what did Song fifth girl do to you, now everyone knows that you bullied Song fifth girl, people were kind enough to save you, but you bit back, Song fifth girl almost committed suicide by hanging, do you know what people outside say about you?”
He Wanru also froze when she heard that, “Mother, I just wanted to teach her a lesson…. So what now?”
“You should nurture yourself first, I will go to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence to have a look before making any plans.” Madam He rubbed her brow with an annoyed look.
He Wanru in the end is still a little girl scared little face white, aggrieved to cry, she is the one who is hurt.
“All right, this period of time you will give me peacefully stay at home, where not allowed to go, and so on after this burst of wind.”
After instructing He Wanru, Mrs. He turned her head and left.
He Wanru was so angry that she cursed Song Jing dozens of times in her heart.
“Yawn!” Song Jing rubbed her nose and glanced at Painted Eyebrows, “Mrs. He came to the door?”
Painted Eyebrows nodded, “Madam He is bringing the doctor to the door, I guess she will come to Zhongling Courtyard in a while.”
Song Jing hummed, probably Mrs. He is still not determined to come over to find out the truth, was thinking, suddenly peony ran to.
“Miss, Huai Wang’s son is here to see you.”
“What?” Song Jing was surprised, following the line of sight to look, it was indeed the Huai Wang Shizi walking towards this side.
Song Jing glanced at the appearance of the glasses, last night tossed a night, now the small face pale and feeble, looking like a patient, look unhelpful, and then with a long plain dress shows more delicate.
“Peony, you go and stop the son, don’t let him enter the door is.”
Song Jing looked at Paeonia, Paeonia nodded and stopped Huai Wang Shizi at the door, “Shizi, my Miss is resting, I’m afraid it’s not convenient to see people.”
The Prince of Huai had a worried face, “How is your young lady doing now?”
“Miss has suffered some shock, her mind has not yet recovered, the doctor said she needs to recuperate.” Paeonia explained in a serious manner.
But the Prince of Huai heard the sound of coughing from inside and was even more anxious, “Jing sister, there is no need to take the matter of the frightened horse to heart, it is not your fault, and why do you need to be angry and do something stupid, if there is anything, just mention it to me, there is always a solution, I always believe in you.”
As soon as Huai Wang’s son heard about this, he couldn’t wait to come here, full of worry, afraid that Song Jing would do something stupid again.
Song Jing’s heart suddenly gushed with warmth, and she was about to speak when she heard a commotion from outside, Mrs. He came with someone in a hurry, and at first glance, she froze at the sight of the Prince of Huai.
“Shizi.”
Huaiwang Shizi glanced at Madam He, “Why did Madam He come to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence?”
“I’m here to visit the fifth girl of Song, the fifth girl was injured, how to say the He family can not be unconnected, naturally I must come to see.”
After that, Paeonia immediately said, “Madam He, my lady is not well enough to see others, the doctor said she needs to recuperate well, so please go back.”
Mrs. He hooked her lips, the purpose of her visit was to see if Song Jing was playing any tricks, so she would not leave easily.
“What kind of words is that, I am here to visit the fifth girl, how can I still scare the fifth girl.” Mrs. He glanced at Prince Huai, “Why don’t you come in with me to take a look?”
“That’s not necessary, Jing sister is not feeling well, Madam He is afraid that coming here today will disturb Jing sister’s recuperation, so why don’t you come back in a few days when Jing sister’s health is stable?”
The son of Huai Wang was blocking the doorway, Madam He could not enter, but she was unwilling to leave like this.
“If you can let Dr. He take a look at the fifth girl, she might be able to heal soon.” Madam He was very insistent.
“Thank you, Madam He, for your kindness. Jing’er is suffering from an illness of the heart, not an illness of the body, and the doctor said that she needs to rest and not be stimulated.” The First Lady rushed to the door and met Madam He’s gaze, “Madam He’s kindness is appreciated by the Marquis of Zhongyi.
The first lady is a difficult one, Mrs. He has known it for a long time, and there is Huai Wang Shizi stopping at the door, it seems that she can’t see Song Jing today, she is holding her breath and can’t spit it out.
“The first lady, although this time to visit the fifth girl, but mainly to discuss the misunderstanding between the two families, that day my daughter was frightened by the mouth will not choose to say, these days after sobering up to learn that they said wrong repentance, but only because of the body is not feeling well, so let me come to visit the fifth girl.”
Mrs. He is testing the attitude of the First Lady. As soon as I entered the door, I didn’t see Song Shiyan. Thinking the matter was handed over to the first lady, Mrs. He simply did not beat around the bush.
The First Lady pretended to sigh, “I’m not going to hide it from Mrs. He, this child is stubborn since she was young, how can she stand it when she is misunderstood?
Mrs. He was secretly anxious, who knew how long Song Jing would be sick, and the rumors outside were getting more and more, so it would be impossible to explain after a long time.
No matter how Mrs. He said, the First Lady could always shrug it off and deal with it painlessly, which made Mrs. He feel angry and soon found an excuse to leave.
At that moment, Song Rou entered the door, a long pink dress, two extra pearl hairpins on her head, delicate makeup on her face, shyly bowing her head.
Mrs. He glanced at Song Rou and hummed, “The fifth girl is sick and can’t get up, but the third girl is so happy, this dress is indeed elaborate enough, I heard that the third girl and the fifth girl have deep feelings, it seems that it is not so.”
Song Rou froze, the little face swish red, the corner of the eye glanced at the Huai Wang Shizi, but also hate to find a crack to burrow in.
“Who said the fifth sister fell ill, nonsense, last night I also ….”
“Sister Rou’er!” The First Lady’s face sank and looked at Song Rou unhappily.
Mrs. He stopped in her tracks, glanced at Song Rou, and continued to probe, “Third girl, don’t talk nonsense, the fifth girl is seriously ill, no one is allowed to disturb her, if you speak so loudly, you will disturb the fifth girl’s retreat, you can’t afford to do anything wrong.”
The first lady looked at Song Rou with cold eyes, her eyes contained a warning, but unfortunately, Song Rou did not see it, afraid that the son of Huai Wang had misunderstood himself, anxious to explain.
“I saw her walking in the courtyard last night, and I’ve always been close to her.
The first time I saw her, I thought she was a good person.
This is a sarcastic remark that the Marquis of Zhongyi is faking, Song Jing is simply pretending to be sick.
The first lady’s face was embarrassed, and she looked coldly at Song Rou, who had not yet realized what she had done wrong, and her eyes were glancing at the Prince of Huai, her cheeks flushed.
Mrs. He looked back at the First Lady with interest, “Since the third girl has said so, then I am relieved, First Lady, keep these herbs for the fifth girl to tonic her body.”
The first lady wrinkled her eyebrows and did not say anything, just at this time there was a movement from inside the house.
“Miss… Why have you come out?” Paeonia was startled and hurriedly went forward to support Song Jing.
Song Jing’s face was as white as paper, and her body was so weak that she would have fallen to the floor if not for the maid’s support.
“How did you get out?” Huai Wang Shizi went forward and asked in a soft voice.
Song Jing gritted her teeth and shook her head, “I came just to tell Madam He, I don’t know what kind of people Miss He was arguing with in the carriage, but Miss He scared the horse and I have nothing halfway to do with it, please don’t misunderstand Madam He.”
Mrs. He’s face changed slightly, these words were clearly a naked threat, in looking at Song Jing’s appearance was obviously the weakness of a serious illness.
“Sister Jing, you were kind enough to save someone’s life, but you were wronged, so why do you need to defend others now?
Huaiwang Shizi went forward and held Song Jing, “Okay, don’t think about anything, go back and rest, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation.”
Song Jing nodded her head.
“Brother Shizi…” Song Rou immediately stepped forward, only then did she realize after the fact that she had just said the wrong thing, and looked at Song Jing again, “Fifth sister, what’s wrong with you, you were fine yesterday, why did you suddenly fall ill?”
“That’s enough!” The First Lady stopped Song Rou, her eyes were like knives, and Song Rou didn’t dare to move, “Sister Jing is the first sister, you are a concubine, what’s the point of shouting!”
Song Rou clenched her lips and looked at Huai Wang Shizi with aggression.
Unfortunately, Prince Huai did not look at her from the beginning to the end, his eyes were all on Song Jing.
The eldest lady glanced at Madam He, “Jing’er has never been able to lie, and she was kind enough to save others, but in the end, she ended up with a bad reputation.
Madam He’s attitude suddenly took a 180 degree turn and she said, “Don’t misunderstand, Madam, the He family is still grateful to Fifth Maiden for saving her life, so how could they let her suffer?
Mrs. He didn’t expect Song Jing to be ambiguous, she almost muddled through the matter, but she was good enough to bring up the matter of He Wanru’s argument with someone, if Song Jing bit the bullet, then the matter of He Wanru’s private meeting with someone would definitely be implemented.
After all, there is already a rumor going around, but it’s just a rumor, now it’s up to Song Jing to say.
If Song Jing explains clearly, He Wanru can still keep her reputation, but if Song Jing is deliberately confused…. Mrs. He rubbed her head, adding to her annoyance.
Song Jing’s whole body was so weak that she couldn’t even lift her hands, and her body was drenched in sweat, so she looked really sick.
The first lady glanced at Prince Huai, “Prince, I’ll call the doctor to come over and take a look, it’s really inconvenient for a woman in a boudoir, why don’t you go wait in the front hall?”
This is the first time that the government has ever been able to get a new one.
Song Rou saw this and immediately wanted to follow him, but was stopped by the maid beside the First Lady, but Song Rou said, “The Prince is a guest, as the host I naturally have to go and entertain him properly, so as not to lose my manners.”
“You are an unmarried girl to entertain a foreign man, are you not afraid of being laughed at?” The First Lady went out with an iron face, looking at Song Rou with a gloomy gaze.
Song Rou shrank her neck and whispered, “Eldest Aunt, after all, Shi Zi’s brother is also the master of Mingliao Hall, didn’t he also come to visit fifth sister.”
The first lady’s eyebrows tightened, “You’re an unmarried girl who knows no shame when you talk about your brother, is that what your aunt taught you?”
Song Ruo more aggrieved, “First aunt, I and the son brother since childhood acquaintance, used to be so called ….”
The eldest madam became even more angry at hearing this, her impression of Song Rou was so bad that she was almost bad by Song Rou.
“Although I am not the second house mother, since I am in charge of this house, I have the right to teach you how to learn women’s reserve, come on people, drag the third girl out and kneel, no one is allowed to get up without my permission.”
The First Lady was furious, so Song Rou did not dare to contradict her, but in her heart she actually hated the First Lady, and this was not the first time the First Lady had targeted herself.
Song Rou reluctantly kneeled under the porch, her eyes were full of reluctance.
At that moment, the doctor came and the First Lady didn’t bother with Song Rou for a while, but went into the house to see Song Jing.
Fortunately, Song Jing was not seriously hurt, so the First Lady was relieved and instructed the maid to let Song Jing recuperate well.
After leaving the door, the First Lady glanced coldly at Song Rou, who suddenly got a chill down her back. The First Lady slowly said, “Sister Rou’s temperament is impetuous, from tomorrow onwards, you don’t need to go to Mingliao Hall, stay well in the courtyard.
“Eldest Aunt, Sister Rou knows she is wrong, she should not contradict Eldest Aunt, please calm down.”
Song Ruo panicked, Ming Luang Hall is her last chance, otherwise she can only be arranged to find a marriage that is not satisfactory.
The first lady took a deep breath and kicked Song Rou directly in the body, “From now on, no one but the elders are allowed to disturb the fifth girl’s recuperation, and if the fifth girl has any problems, she will not be forgiven!
Song Rou was dragged away from the Zhongling courtyard, the courtyard was suddenly quiet, Song Jing sat on the couch, her face eased a lot, fortunately there was ShuYu around, sealed Song Jing’s pulse, but Song Jing’s blood was temporarily not smooth, very weak appearance, after unlocking the acupuncture points slowly recovered.
“Where is the World Prince?”
“Back to Miss, Shi Zi learned that Miss is temporarily fine has left, when he was leaving he asked servant girl to convey to Miss that he will come back to visit in two days, so that Miss can relax and recuperate.” Paeonia said with a smile, “Miss, Huai Wang’s son is gentle and elegant to Miss, could it be to Miss…”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” If people hear this, it will affect the reputation of Miss.”
Paeony smiled and immediately stopped talking.
She said, “Miss, if Mrs. He comes again tomorrow, what should we do?”
“If the He family can say a few good words for the Marquis of Zhongyi, then it’s not too late to spare He Wanru.
Song Jing is waiting for someone to come to her door, if her guess is correct, He Wanru is only the one who was encouraged, the real mastermind behind this is someone else.
With the First Lady taking care of the Zhongling Courtyard, no one dared to disturb it, so Song Jing also had a quiet time, relaxing in the courtyard and occasionally reading some books.
In the evening, she would go out with Painted Beauty to practice her horse, not daring to slacken off for a moment.
Paeonia entered the door with a smile, “Miss, Huai Wang Shizi is here.”
Song Jing followed her gaze and saw that Huai Wang Shizi had entered the Zhongling courtyard, Song Jing smiled faintly and welcomed her up.
“Brother Sui.”
Huai Wang Shizi walked two steps faster and handed several packs of pastries in his hand to Song Jing, “These are made by the new cook in the house, the taste is new, keep them to try.”
“Many thanks to Brother Sui.” Song Jing took them and handed them to the painted eyebrows.
“You look pretty good today, that’s right, don’t think about all that nonsense, just keep your body.” Huai Wang Shizi stood under the corridor with a slender posture, his face was like jade, and his temperament was elegant as he looked at Song Jing.
Song Jing smiled and nodded her head.
Huai Wang Shizi instructed Song Jing a few more words, then said, “I’m here to look for the marquis today, I’ll see you later.”
At this end, just after sending off Huai Wang Shizi, the maid at the other end said that Fianhe County Master was visiting.
Song Jing’s eyes narrowed, “Please come in.”
This time, she was wearing a generous and delicate goose yellow beaded gauze dress, which made her skin as charming as cream, but her face was not good, so she forced a smile when she entered the courtyard.
“Sister Jing, I can’t find time to visit these days, I’ve been thinking about it, now I’m relieved to see that you’re almost well.”
Feihe County Lord pulled Song Jing and said with a smile, her eyes glanced at a few packets of pastries on the table, she recognized the origin at a glance, her complexion was slightly gloomy, but she instantly put on a faint smile again.
“The county master is kind, I just had some shock, nothing happened.” Song Jing’s tone was light, and she guessed the intention of the county princess.
The He family has been tossing and turning for a few days, but the rumors are increasing instead of decreasing, and the emperor has even reprimanded Lord He for not teaching his daughter properly.
As a matter of fact, after chatting with the magistrate for a while, she said, “Jing sister, Wanru is an impulsive person, she didn’t mean to target you, she has been blaming herself for the past few days.
Song Jing lowered her head and didn’t speak, and the county master called out again, “Sister Jing?”
“What do you think I should do?” Song Jing raised her head and asked.
“Why don’t you come with me to visit Wanru and clear up this matter so that the three of us can continue to be friends.” Fianhe County Head said in a harmless manner.
Song Jing went to the He family, does not that mean that the wrong is Song Jing.
“Miss, the first lady has something to ask you to go over.” The painted eyebrows lowered their heads and said quickly.
Song Jing slowly stood up, “County Lord, I’ll go out first.”
Feihe county master nodded, sighed and knew that this matter had fizzled out, also followed and stood up, “I see that the scenery in the house is good, you go busy, I will go for a stroll.”
Song Jing went to look for the First Lady, who was slightly stunned, and knew that Fian He County had come, and guessed that Song Jing had come to hide, so she let her sit in the house for a while.
“You don’t have to take this matter to heart, the He family has already pressed on, and there will be movement in the next few days.”
The First Lady turned to comfort Song Jing, “If you don’t want to see someone, just come to Eldest Aunt’s place.”
Song Jing smilingly answered, the First Lady suddenly looked at Song Jing again and joked, “These few days Huai Wang Shizi came diligently, and you two had some affection when you were young, he is a good one.”
Song Jing smiled and blushed, “Eldest Auntie may have misunderstood, Shi Zi is the master of Mingluo Hall, and Jing Sister’s son is a student of Mingluo Hall, that’s why she pays attention to him, nothing else.”
The First Lady smiled but did not say anything, and quickly went to deal with the matter at hand, Song Jing was relieved.
The county princess sat in the pavilion and pondered, turning her head to look around, which still had any interest in looking at the scenery.
“County Lord, the son has gone to the Wind Pine Courtyard to look for the Marquis of Zhongyi, I guess he is talking about something now.” The maid whispered.
The county lord faintly hinted, she just want to wait for the Huai Wang Shizi.
“County princess?”
Song Ruo came with a surprised face, saw Fianhe County Lord’s face slightly unkind, suddenly understood, hooked her lips and smiled.
“County Lord is here to wait for the Shizi, right?”
The county princess glanced at Song Rou, Song Rou sat directly on the opposite stone bench, hand propped up on her jaw, “These days the Shizi came almost every day, the eldest aunt also forbade anyone to disturb them, I see that the fifth sister are a little happy, can not wait to be sick day after day.”
“What are you talking about!” The county princess wrinkled her eyebrows in displeasure.
Song Rou shrugged, “I did not nonsense ah, these days the son of the fifth sister is very caring, every day bring some rare things to make the fifth sister happy, the fifth sister born beautiful, who does not see the heart, and two days ago Mrs. He came to visit the fifth sister was blocked by the son of the fifth sister outside the door, not to disturb the fifth sister rest, but also everywhere for the fifth sister to run before and after to clear the wrongdoing, afraid of the fifth sister The first thing you should do is to get the information you need.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
Song Ruo glanced at Fianhe County Lord, smiled slightly, “County Lord is not to find the fifth sister to intercede, but unfortunately the fifth sister did not agree ….”
The county chief hummed, and Song Rou said, “The Marquis of Zhongyi is now mired in mud, if someone can give a hand, there may be a chance, take advantage of this opportunity can let the He family to help, but also let the son come to visit from time to time, and how will easily agree to the county chief?”
The county princess narrowed her eyes, “You are also a girl of the Marquis of Zhongyi, you can only be better if the Marquis of Zhongyi is well, why are you saying this?”
Song Rou snorted, “What can I do as a concubine daughter, I’m still in the hands of others, what does it matter to me if the Marquis of Zhongyi is good or bad.”
“Then why should I believe you?” The county princess looked at Song Rou with disdain.
Song Rou smiled, “Because the county lord hates exactly what I hate, the fifth sister has been used to being bullied since she was young, it’s not easy to find someone to rely on, so she might use some tactics, just in case the county lord will regret it afterwards.”
“Enough!” The county lord’s face changed slightly, and it must be said that every word of Song Rou poked at the heart of the county lord.
When Huai Wang Shizi treated Song Jing differently as a child, and now that Song Jing had grown so stunningly beautiful, Fian He County Head simply did not dare to imagine the outcome.
“Stop stirring up trouble here, this county princess doesn’t need you to teach her!” County Mistress Feihe coldly glanced at Song Rou.
“Since the county lord is so persistent in listening to persuasion, then consider that I did not mention it.” Song Rou’s face is harmless, “But I kindly advise a word of advice, day by day there are feelings ….”
Song Rou wanted to say but stopped, was about to leave, but listened to the county princess and spoke, “Wait, you say the rest of the words to hear it.”
The county princess lost her mind when it came to her feelings, especially when she saw Song Jing from the first moment, she couldn’t help but target Song Jing from her heart.
Song Rou hooked her lips and smiled slowly sat down, “County Lord, Song Rou can never be your enemy, while the fifth sister is our common enemy.”
“Cut the nagging, this prefect doesn’t have the time to listen to you.” Fianhe County Lord obviously lost her patience.
Song Rou nodded, “County Lord, if the second house has a matriarch, the fifth sister’s marriage will naturally fall on the matriarch, and if the eldest aunt wants to interfere, the name will not be right.”
Fianhe County Lord sneered and raised her eyes to look at Song Rou, “What, you want to be the first daughter?”
Song Rou nodded nonchalantly, “My aunt and father have an extremely good relationship, if we can get the county lord’s support, Song Rou will definitely do her best to block fifth sister, fifth sister will definitely not become a threat to the county lord.”
The county princess sneered, as if mocking Song Rou’s ambition, and waved her hand, “All right, you go down first, this matter this county princess consider it carefully.”
After Song Rou left, the maid immediately said, “County Lord, the third girl Song is taking advantage of you.”
Fianhe County Lord coldly said, “Don’t measure yourself!”
In a short while, Huai Wang Shizi left the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, and Fianhe County Master followed along, Fianhe County Master smiled and said, “Fortunately, Jing sister is not hurt anymore, so I am relieved.”
The son of Huai Wang did not say anything more than that.
“Cousin where is this going?”
The first thing you need to do is to go back to your home, I still have some important things to do.
After saying that, he got on his horse and left, and Fianhe County Master’s face was twisted with anger.
“Go follow!”
About an hour later, the maid came back and murmured a few words in the ear of the Fibrous and County Lord.
“Cousin went around to take a statement of all the people seen by the frightened horses that day?” Fianhe County Head was a little incredulous, “Crazy, simply crazy, isn’t this offending the He family?”
The county head of Feihe could not sit still and went directly to the He family.
“She actually dared to take the overseas Chinese?” He Wanru gritted her teeth and almost tore the handkerchief in her hand.
“This matter is not easy to solve, the Marquis of Zhongyi has the intention to ask for some benefits, otherwise it will not rest easily.” Fianhe county master stepped forward to hold He Wanru’s arm, “Wanru, I’m sorry for making you suffer, I will definitely get back this debt for you.”
He Wanru waved her hand haphazardly, “We have been friends for so many years, why talk about this, just blame the Marquis of Zhongyi for being despicable and shameless!”
At this time, Mrs. He entered the door, and Fianhe County Master stood up, “Aunt He.”
Mrs. He nodded her head, He Wanru had never confessed to the Fianhe county princess, so Mrs. He did not know about it.
“Let’s also stop, this matter is considered a lesson for the He family, the He family already intends to assist Grand Master Song to transfer back to Kyoto City to arrange a position.”
Mrs. He could only concede, if it continued the He family would also be dragged along with it, and He Wanru’s reputation would really be washed away.
Mrs. He could only swallow this grievance in her stomach, but in her heart, she had a grudge against the Marquis of Zhongyi.
The county princess hesitated for a long time, looked at Mrs. He and slowly said, “This matter is the fault of the fifth girl Song, and caused Wanru’s face to be injured, and caused the He family to be reprimanded by the emperor, forcing the He family to compromise, which is really infuriating.”
Mrs. He’s face was gloomy, because of this matter she was reprimanded by Old Lady He, almost lost the power of the house, and was mocked by her sisters-in-law, thinking about this matter makes her angry.
“Aunt He, I do have a thought to send.”
The three houses of the Song family are the weakest, so if you can support a mother-in-law, you can add to the trouble of the First Lady Song.
He Wanru’s eyes lit up, “Fian He is right, Song Jing caused me to be injured and caused the He family to lose face, this account cannot just be settled.”
Mrs. He narrowed her eyes and pondered for a while before saying, “The second house’s head mother is the county princess of Linshang, how can she marry another? Besides, it may not be right with First Lady Song.”
Mrs. He also had anger towards First Lady Song, after all, it was First Lady Song who got the benefit in the end.
“The second house has an Aunt Lu who has always been at odds with First Lady Song, but her status is not enough to be pressured to death by First Lady Song. If she has a chance to turn over, she will definitely have to compete with First Lady Song.
The county princess thought and thought, but agreed with Song Rou’s words.
“The Marquis of Zhongyi used this matter to make the first house whole, but ruined the position of Linshang’s mother-in-law, Song Jing must hate the first house to death.”
He Wanru’s face was excited, this was like killing two birds with one stone, as long as she could be punished severely to make her feel bad, He Wanru would do anything, her hatred for Song Jing had reached the extreme these days.
The county princess nodded, “Good, it can make the big house whole, but also let the Marquis of Zhongyi know that all these years of fruitless efforts are all because of the county princess Linshang, then the Marquis of Zhongyi will be in a dilemma.”
Mrs. He is angry, at first hearing these words heart is as comfortable as the three volt days drinking cold sour plum soup.
“It’s time to teach the Marquis of Zhongyi a lesson, as for this Aunt Lu…” Mrs. He hesitated, “It’s time to teach the Marquis of Zhongyi a lesson. Mrs. He hesitated, “Find a chance to take a look at it some other time, if it’s someone you can’t afford, don’t waste your time.”
Feihe County Head nodded, “Auntie He has a point.”
The three of them discussed for a long time before dispersing, and the county princess returned to the Huai Wang Mansion satisfied.
The He family has an attitude, things will be good, Song Shiyan has been grieving about the Song grandfather’s exile, can transfer the eldest son back to Kyoto city, Song Shiyan is overjoyed.
“Marquis don’t worry, my lord has already arranged this matter properly, the Song grand master has outstanding achievements in these years, it is not difficult to transfer back to Kyoto.”
Mrs. He glanced at the First Lady who could not hide her excitement, there was a slight mockery in her eyes, but it was quickly hidden away.
The reason why the first lady has been suppressed by the third house, most of the reason is that the first master Song is not around, it is inevitable that the bottom is not enough, the couple get together a lot, and now have not seen each other for several years, can transfer the first master Song back to Kyoto, is the first lady’s dream never expected, is simply an unexpected joy.
Song Shiyan also found out clearly that the He family had indeed gone to a lot of trouble in private, as Mrs. He said, so Song Shiyan’s attitude also took a 180-degree turn.
“Since there was a misunderstanding, the marquis will explain clearly when we return.” Song Shiyan also made his attitude clear.
The marquis of Zhongyi is innocent, but influenced by certain people, these days it really made the He family work hard, but fortunately it has passed, goodbye.”
After saying that Song Shiyan face slightly changed, eyes flashed a complex look.
The first lady was so immersed in joy that she didn’t notice it, and couldn’t wait to write to Grand Master Song immediately, and was even more grateful to Song Jing.
The news that Grand Master Song was coming back spread quickly through the marquis as if it had wings.
“You said Song Yan is coming back?” Old Lady Song stood up, her face was gloomy and terrible, it was hard to get rid of Song Yan, and now that he was back, he was bound to become a strong rival of the Third Master Song.
“Just now Mrs. He came to make a trip and mentioned it to the marquis herself.” The maid said.
The old lady Song took a deep breath, “I have underestimated the oldest daughter-in-law for so many years, without making a sound, she was able to trap the He family and let Song Yan return to the capital!”
When she thought of this, Old Lady Song hated the deceased Yu, if she hadn’t caused trouble she wouldn’t have made Song Shiyan dislike the third house and handed over the power to the first lady.
The old lady Song is a bit restless, continue this way, she is in a vulnerable, Song Yan is after all the first son, the rightful heir, if you come back will let the old lady Song years of silk ruined.
“Old madam, Aunt Lu requests to see you.”
Old Lady Song frowned, “What is she doing here, no!”
The maid added, “Old madam, Aunt Lu said she has something very important to say to old madam.”
Old Madam Song was a little impatient, aunt Lu, what can she do, “Let her in.”
Only then did Aunt Lu enter with her head bowed, Old Madam Song rubbed her brow, “Say, what is it.”
“Old madam, maidservant concubine is willing to serve old madam as a dog and horse.” Aunt Lu entered and knelt at Old Madam Song’s feet, lowering her posture.
Old Madam Song snickered and looked at Aunt Lu, who quickly added, “If I can take the position of the second house’s head mother with my own strength, I will definitely compete with the First Lady.”
Old Lady Song raised her eyebrows, “Good, if you can get the Marquis to agree to let you be the second house mother-in-law, I will definitely help you out, provided you have that ability to do so.”
“Old madam why don’t you just wait for the good news from the maidservant, the maidservant has nothing to ask for in this life but for a good home for Rou’s son in the future, the first madam has some misunderstandings about the maidservant, if the maidservant doesn’t fight for it, the first madam will definitely make the maidservant have a hard time saying it.” Aunt Lu was full of confidence, making Old Lady Song more and more suspicious.
Aunt Lu placed her weaknesses in front of Old Madam Song to prove her heartfeltness, after all, the First Lady had not made things difficult for Aunt Lu before, and it was not surprising that Aunt Lu would fight so much to save herself.
Old Lady Song hummed, for a lowly concubine to try to climb to the position of the main family, Old Lady Song did not believe in Aunt Lu’s ability.
“Old madam, the servant girl and you both have the same enemy…”
“Alright, cut the crap, wait until when you climb up to the position of the second house’s main mother.” Old Lady Song was not stupid, she would not believe the words of an aunt gullibly.
Aunt Lu went forward and whispered a few words in Old Lady Song’s ear, and Old Lady Song’s eyes lit up, but she looked at Aunt Lu half-heartedly and half-doubtfully.
After a few days, with the clarification from the Marquis of Zhongyi, the reputation of the He Mansion was reduced to a minimum, and the First Lady became even closer to Song Jing, making several sets of new clothes for Song Jing, and sending her some brand new jewelry, a full thousand taels of silver.
With the First Lady taking care of her, Song Jing’s life was considered to have come to an end, and no one dared to target Song Jing anymore.
On the same day, news came that the Ninth Prince had been seriously injured in an assassination attempt in the south and had failed in his mission, causing the Emperor to become angry and reprimand the Ninth Prince, ordering him to return to the capital quickly.
Song Jing looked at the painted eyebrows worriedly, “Is cousin uncle really injured?”
The painting eyebrows shook her head, “The servant girl does not know about this matter, although the ninth prince is favored in the court, but with the emperor’s suppression is not easy to live.”
Song Jing did not sleep well for two days in a row, the ninth prince helped him so much, and now something happened, Song Jing heart is not good, from time to time sent people to inquire, quiet down can not help but think of the ninth prince’s life.
The ninth prince is the only son of the late emperor, the late emperor hurt his body when he was young, to middle age has been childless, the Empress Dowager Zhao blessing chanting scriptures for more than five years, coupled with the late emperor properly recuperated, by the mercy of heaven, the Empress Dowager Zhao finally pregnant with a child.
The late emperor was overjoyed, has been to the queen mother Zhao this child very important, but the Zhao family is too powerful, some ministers admonished the late emperor to suppress the queen mother Zhao, otherwise the birth of a son, Zhao family is like the sky vaguely endangered rivers and mountains.
Zhao Queen Mother finally gave birth to a child in October, is the only child of the previous emperor’s life, and so the child was a week old, the previous emperor was seriously ill, time is not much, in order to prevent Zhao Queen Mother draped politics, let Zhao family dominance, endangering the country, temporary succession of the first son of the cautious king is now the Ming Feng emperor as a son, leaving a will, and so the nine princes full double ten years to take the throne, the power is divided into two, half to the Ming Feng emperor, half to the trust minister, so that the minister and so the nine princes full double ten years old and then transfer the power to the nine princes.
But that minister seems to have evaporated, no matter how to check, but also do not know who, that hidden half of the military power is always unknown.
Nine princes in the word nine, take is the meaning of nine to five.
The nine princes were punished, the ministers were as if they had agreed to a collective silence.
Song Shiyan remembered the words of Mrs. He that day, hesitated for a long time.
This day, Aunt Lu was suddenly diagnosed with a happy pulse, not only that, the family is also a series of happy events, Aunt Lu’s brother has made a lot of merit was made an official, the second son of the Lu family is praised as a prodigy, the future will have something to do, and there is a doctor who is optimistic about the second son of the Lu family, determined that in the future will be able to get the first prize, a moment Aunt Lu is happy, straighten up the back.
The second house is full of happy events, the Lu family is competitive enough, Aunt Lu is also considered to have a dependence, Song Susanna also has only a concubine son, now Aunt Lu is pregnant, Song Susanna is naturally happy.
A few days later, when the news came that the second son of the Lu family had entered the Academy of History and Literature, Aunt Lu cried tears of joy, for if the second son of the Lu family won the first prize, the Lu family would really rise in the future.
Song Shiyan for several days in a row are thinking about a matter, at first heard about this, and remembered that the ninth prince was punished, hesitated for several days.
This day the old lady Song went to Song Shiyan with several paintings in her hand, “Marquis, Yu has left, the third house can not be without a mother to take care of, these days I have thought about a few candidates, the third house can not be without a first son ah.”
Song Shiyan frowned, recently the third house really does not have a good feeling, so some impatience, hastily glanced at the woman on the scroll, waved his hand, “you are his mother, this matter is naturally your decision, but before marrying first inquire about the woman’s temperament, do not find a troublemaker back.”
The old lady Song’s face stiffened, quickly squeezed out a smile and nodded, “Marquis don’t worry, the third house out of Yu such a scourge, almost dragged the entire third house women, should have known that should not be tolerated, and not to this point, now let everyone mention the third house, will think of Yu, how can I still find a not virtuous continue to plague the third house, this time I will definitely This time I will definitely choose carefully, also for the sake of the third house heir.”
The old lady Song bit the word heir, Song Shiyan hummed twice, his face eased a bit, and fell into the
The corners of Old Lady Song’s mouth hooked up, her purpose had been achieved, so she quickly found an excuse to leave.
The Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence has easily seen some improvement these days, and if you want to continue to climb up the ladder and restore the previous prosperity, you must first find the right direction.
Mrs. He’s words have been echoing in Song Shiyan’s ears, between the two factions of the Ninth Prince and Emperor Mingfeng, the Marquis of Zhongyi has never had a clear position, which is why it is isolated and helpless.
The second house is the Zhong Yi Marquis’s piece of heart disease, is thinking Song Shiyan’s eyes lit up.
“Marry a wife…”
Song Shiyan was shaken, immediately let people go to invite Song Susanna.
“The first is to be the first son of the second family, and the second is to be cut off.
Song Shiyan had always been grim towards Song Susanna, his second son, not as close as Song Da, nor as doting as Song San, but always light.
Song Susanna frowned, “What does father mean?”
“The second house has not even had a mother in charge for so many years. Song Shiyan slowly said, “After correcting Aunt Lu, this child is the second son of the second house.”
“Father, I’m afraid this is not appropriate, Lin Shang she is the county princess….” Song Susanna favored Aunt Lu, but there was still a trace of concern, the county princess Lin Shang occupies the position of the second house mother, how can Aunt Lu be corrected.
“The fact that Lin Shang has been childless for many years is already a crime, and the marquis has endured enough for so many years, it’s not too much to ask for Lin Shang to be repudiated, and no one can say anything.”
Song Shiyan looked at Song Susanna, “The ninth prince is far less powerful than the emperor, and now he is being suppressed by the emperor, and Lin Shang has offended the Empress Dowager, so there is nothing wrong for the marquis to repudiate Lin Shang.”
Song Susanna was silent for a long time, indeed, the Marquis of Zhongyi now has only one way to choose, is to lean on Emperor Mingfeng, this is the only chance for the Marquis of Zhongyi to turn around.
“If you repudiate Lin Shang, you won’t be called heartless, so why don’t you give the status of a noble concubine and just give up the position of the main wife.”
Song Shiyan hesitated, “After all, the couple is one, although Lin Shang has offended the Empress Dowager, but there is still a reputation of filial piety in her body.”
At the beginning, Song Shiyan wanted to let Linshang be the ordinary wife, after all, the son of Huai Wang had an ambiguous attitude towards Song Jing, so if Linshang was the ordinary wife, Song Jing would still be the first daughter.
But then I thought about it, even if Song Jing is the first daughter, it is impossible for her to be Huai Wang’s son’s concubine, so why not just be ruthless to the end, and also let Emperor Ming Feng see the determination of the marquis family.
Song Susanna thought for a while, “Just as father said.”
“The first eight days of next month will be the 60th birthday of Princess Huayang.
Song Shiyan thought it would be safer to send Song Jing away.
Song Susanna nodded, “I’ll let her go pack her bags.”
Zhongling Courtyard
At first glance, Song Jing was surprised to see Susanna Song, “Why is father here?”
Song Susanna cleared her throat and took out an invitation from her pocket, “This is an invitation for your grandmother’s birthday, you should pack up and go to stay for a few days tomorrow.”
Song Jing took the post, frowned slightly, all these years in Zhong Yi Marquis Mansion Hua Yang Princess is a taboo, simply can not mention, how now but let her go to celebrate the birthday.
“The princess is not well in her old age and has been thinking about your mother, which is not convenient for your mother to see, so it’s good for you as a granddaughter to go and see.” Song Susanna said indifferently.
Song Jing had no doubt about it, and once she heard that the Princess was ill, she was a bit anxious, “Good, then my daughter will go and pack.”
Song Susanna nodded and gave a few more instructions before she left.
Aunt Lu got the letter and her face broke into a smile, Song Rou also followed the excitement, she will soon be the first daughter, and when Song Jing returns, she will be the lowly concubine daughter.
“This child has come at the right time, thanks to him.” Aunt Lu reached out and stroked her flat belly with a soft smile on her face.
Aunt Lu has been in the door for more than ten years, but she never dreamed that one day she would be able to crush Princess Linshang under her body. Princess Linshang is a person of what kind of character, her methods are so severe that even Song Shiyan has to give way to her.
Unfortunately, the sky is not as it should be, the Princess of Huayang had an accident that dragged the Princess of Linshang with her. If she could see the Princess of Linshang serving tea and water in front of her one day, Aunt Lu would wake up laughing in her dreams.
All the masters of the Marquis of Zhongyi knew what was going on, except Song Jing, who was still in the dark. After packing up briefly, Song Jing prepared to go out the next morning.
When she left the city gate, Prince Huai came after her, “Sister Jing!”
Song Jing heard the call and lifted the curtain, busy saying, “Where is Brother Sui going this time?”
“Are you going to congratulate the eldest princess on her birthday…”
Before he could finish his words, Fianhe County Master rode after him, “Cousin, why don’t you wait for me, eh, Jing sister?”
Song Jing glanced at Huai Wang Shizi, who had been stopped several times by Fei He County Master when he wanted to say something.
Huai Wang Shizi frowned, “Why did you follow me?”
The county princess shyly smiled, “Auntie asked you to go over, the house came to the Taoist monk to give us the eight characters.”
Song Jing’s face is slightly white, the eight characters, that is not to discuss the marriage?
The son of Huai Wang has some impatience between his eyebrows, busy to explain what, but the words to the edge of the mouth but can not say out, only to urge Song Jing, “Jing sister, this is a long way to go, you a girl is really too dangerous, the eldest princess birthday is coming up, you may not be able to catch up, why not after some days to settle well before going, I think the eldest princess will certainly be understanding. “
Song Jing’s eyes moved slightly, looked at the two people on horseback, indeed a match made in heaven between a talented man and a beautiful woman.
“Cousin, Jing sister a filial heart and why do you need to worry about it, this will cause unnecessary misunderstanding, I heard that the eldest princess has recently become sick with worry, slightly unwell, I think it must also be thinking about Jing sister.” Fianhe County Head looked at Song Jing with a sincere face.
Song Jing hooked her lips, “I won’t disturb you two, farewell.”
The first thing that happened was that she put down the curtain and ordered the carriage to hurry up, when a call came from behind her, but it soon disappeared.
Song Jing frowned, only felt that there was something unusual about this matter, how did Fianhe county master know that grandmother was not feeling well? The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt.
“ShuYue, you stay behind and pass any news to me as soon as possible.”
Song Jing thought about it but was still unsure, so she asked ShuYue to stay.
“Yes!”
—— off-topic ——
There is no second shift today
Song Jing rushed to the fiefdom overnight, no less tossing and turning, the whole small face has lost a circle, revealing a pointed jaw, palm-sized face more and more exquisite.
The carriage drove out of Dayong City for hundreds of miles, night fell, painting eyebrows saw Song Jing’s weak body, whispered, “Miss, it’s already late, why don’t you find a place to rest first, and then rush in the morning?
Song Jing lifted the curtain and raised her eyes to look at the dark sky, “It’s better, let everyone rest and rest.”
“Hey.” The painting eyebrows answered, and then let everyone find an inn to rest their feet.
Song Jing sat in the carriage all day, all body aches and pains, a simple freshening up to remove the hairpin, is ready to lie on the bed to rest.
Suddenly a shadow flashed in front of her eyes, and Song Jing’s body tightened, she rubbed her eyes and thought she was mistaken.
It’s hard to believe that it’s an assassin?
The sound of footsteps is getting closer and closer, reflecting the flickering lights, the doorway and the window are shifting.
Song Jing held her breath, her heart in her throat, not daring to move half a step, clutching a hairpin in her hand, tense body ready to rush out.
Who is it that is hitting her? Look at this situation, will be her way completely blocked, Song Jing forehead corner seeped a layer of fine beads of sweat, back sweat wet close to the body, there are a few panic, this time if you open the call, based on the few people she brought, is not enough to resist, if it is for money okay, if not …..
The more Song Jing thinks, the more panicked she is, a heart sinks to the bottom.
The next moment, poof, the house candles were extinguished, into a darkness.
Song Jing subconsciously to scream, went to be a large palm covered the lips, Song Jing heart thumped a sinking.
“Shhh! It’s my king.”
A low voice came from behind, Song Jing’s tense heart suddenly relaxed three points.
Before Song Jing returned to his senses, the visitor may have known that the people in the house had noticed, simply broke the door and entered, through the moonlight could see a flash of silver light, dozens of people in black and a wave of people fighting.
“Bang!”
A man in black fell at Song Jing’s feet, then out of nowhere a group of people joined the fight, Song Jing looked confused, how many sets of people came.
The house was a mess, and there was a man’s hissing voice among them.
“Ah, don’t fight don’t fight, I know it’s wrong, I didn’t mean it, help!”
The man hid under the bed, shivering and trembling all over.
Song Jing’s body was frozen, fists clenched under the sleeves, staring at the man, heart a vomit.
Zhao Xi sensed the tense body of the person in his arms and nodded in one direction, “Quickly!”
“Yes!”
Song Jing watched as a group of people poured in, with uncanny skill and unrelenting viciousness and venom, subduing the people in the house in just a moment.
The next moment, Song Jing bright, and then look carefully at the scene on the ground, full of corpses and blood, the dead look abominable, Song Jing calf a soft.
Zhao Xi extremely fast to hold Song Jing, Song Jing a hand clutching Zhao Xi, throat tight, “nine …. cousin uncle, why do they want to kill me?”
Zhao Xi saw her small face as white as paper, eyes flashed with pain and regret, glanced at Wei Qi.
“Half of these people are from the Marquis of Zhongyi, and half seem to be Kyoto secret guards.”
Wei Qi bent down to look at the corpses on the ground slowly said.
“Zhongyi Marquis? Kyoto?” Song Jing’s entire body is numb, all over like in the ice cellar.
Wei Qi bent over a glance, the hands of a long sword pointed, “do not come out quickly!”
“Ahhh! Don’t kill me!” The man under the bed was terrified and trembled as he crawled out, kowtowing to Wei Qi.
“Master, please spare my life, this matter has nothing to do with me ah, just someone ordered me to come over.”
Wei Qi kicked at the man, “Cut the crap, who sent you here to do what, if you do not tell the truth I will kill you with one sword!”
“No! I said I said!” The man couldn’t even finish his sentence, “It’s… One of the guards gave me a hundred taels of silver, saying that the young lady in this house is a small widow who stole away, abandoned her husband and daughter, and went to her old lover alone with the silver money, so I was sent to teach her a lesson, and then caught by everyone, so that the young lady can be brought home and detained, so that the young lady can’t harm the face of that family.”
Song Jing behind the screen to see clearly, all the blood flowing backwards, chest between the pressure of a breath can not exhale.
“Master, what I said is true, I shouldn’t have agreed to it in a moment of confusion, please spare your life.”
The man kept kowtowing, and Wei Qi said, “Do you know who that person is, and whether he is among these people?”
“Master, at that time the man’s face was masked, I did not see clearly ….”
“Clap!” Wei Qi sword pulled out, the man stared in horror, before he could react, a tightening and loosening of the throat, the man fell to the ground with a thud.
Song Jing shivered her lips, her whole body was almost being held by Zhao Xi to stand, another one to spoil her innocence.
Wei Qi pulled out the silver ticket in the man’s arms and handed it to Zhao Xi, “Your Majesty, this silver ticket is from De Zhuang Pawnshop.”
“What?”
Song Jing abruptly raised her eyes, following the line of sight, the bloodstained silver ticket actually has the word De Zhuang, De Zhuang is a money bank under the name of the Marquis of Zhongyi.
Song Jing’s anger attacked her two eyes and she completely fainted.
Zhao Xi embraced Song Jing and glanced at Wei Qi, “Take care of this place, and don’t let the news get into Kyoto.”
“Yes!”
Song Jing fell ill that night, her face was white, her mouth began to speak nonsense, her body was trembling, she was scared to death.
Sitting in front of the couch, Zhao Xi blamed himself a little, but did not regret it.
Not long after, Wei Qi personally brought up the medicine, “Your Majesty, the medicine is ready.”
Zhao Xi reached out to receive it, picked up the spoon and carefully handed it to Song Jing’s mouth, his tone softened three times, “Be good, open your mouth.”
He had never seen Zhao Xi look like this for so many years, even with the Empress Dowager, who was also a hangdog and hated women the most.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
Song Jing tightly pursed her lips, the medicine flowed along the corners of her mouth, as if there was resistance, bending her body into an ostrich shape to avoid the bitterness of the mouth, tossing and turning several times, a bowl of medicine only half a bowl left.
“Boil some more over!” Zhao Xi turned around and ordered, Wei Qi hurriedly nodded, “Yes, I’ll go now.”
Zhao Xi picked up Song Jing with his big palm, gently patted Song Jing’s back, and gently coaxed in a low voice, “Be good, there are no bad people here, no one dares to bully you.”
Song Jing suddenly whimpered and cried, perhaps she was frightened at night, and cried and cried all night long, and two bowls in a row were wasted.
Finally, Zhao Xi saw that the temperature between her forehead had gotten hot again, so he gritted his teeth and squeezed Song Jing’s jaw with his big palm, and took the medicine bowl and poured it on Song Jing.
“Come again!”
The two bowls were spilled halfway through, but fortunately, a lot of it went in, and Song Jing’s clothes and quilt were all covered with brown medicine, and Zhao Xi’s body was also splashed with a lot of it.
After drinking the medicine Song Jing was finally quiet, Zhao Xi was relieved and glanced at the maid, “Give Miss Song a change of clean clothes and take good care of her.”
“Slave servant obeys orders.”
Zhao Xi stood up, withdrew her look and lifted her feet to leave the house, Wei Qi immediately followed.
Zhao Xi did not care to change his clothes and asked, “Did you find out clearly?”
“Back to Your Majesty, half of those people are from the second house of the Marquis of Zhongyi, and the rest are from the Huai Wang Mansion.”
Zhao Xi sneered, “Half of them are from the Song family in Kyoto, the Song family’s second wife’s position has been empty for so long, that Aunt Lu’s father has recently done a few things, won the appreciation of a certain minister is about to be promoted, some people think about some people pretend to be confused.”
But you have to make fun of Song Jing, looking for death! If Zhao Xi hadn’t rushed through the night, it would have been close to Song Jing being injured, Zhao Xi’s eyes were full of anger.
The first thing you need to do is to take advantage of the fact that the second master has recently taken advantage of the fact that Miss Song has gone to Dayong City.
Zhao Xi’s mouth curved up an arc, the eyes of the first flash of harsh, “of course he knows, after all, Song Shiyan want to climb up, must be nudged by someone, plus the news of the king being punished in Kyoto is boiling, naturally, to make a good silk, do to some people see.”
Zhao Xi eyes do not hide contempt, and then looked at Wei Qi, “As for the Huai Wang House ….”
Wei Qi’s body trembled, read the ruthlessness in Zhao Xi’s eyes, “Yes, please rest assured, Your Majesty, my subordinate understands.”
Zhao Xi faintly um, only to turn back to the house, the sky is dawn Zhao Xi just rest, that head Wei Qi said, “Your Majesty, Miss Song is awake.”
Zhao Xi opened his eyes, put on his clothes and went straight out the door.
“Your Majesty, as soon as Miss Song woke up, she was shouting and screaming, the maids couldn’t stop her.”
Zhao Xi heard the words and his footsteps accelerated more and more, before he could get close only to hear Song Jing shouting frantically, smashing the room in a mess.
“Your Majesty.” The maids saluted one after another.
“All out out out! Ah! Don’t come over…” Song Jing covered her head and shouted, standing in the middle of the room with her head cloaked, gasping for breath.
Zhao Xi waved his hand, and the maids in the room retreated with good sense, leaving only the two of them at once.
Song Jing’s eyes were red, like a frightened little beast, confusion and fear and a hint of struggle, more than anything else, a resignation, her voice hoarse and hissing, “Go!”
“Jing Jing, be good!” Zhao Xi slowed down his voice and walked forward a little, “There are no bad people here, no one will bully you.”
Song Jing raised her eyes and took a few steps back, “Don’t come near me! You go away!”
Zhao Xi paused and coaxed lightly with patience, “Running away is not the way to go, the more you run away the more people will bully you, to not be bullied, you have to learn to be strong.”
Song Jing snickered, her smile had some irony in it.
Zhao Xi saw it, and did not get angry, slowly said, “This king was born as the empress’s own son, the honor is incomparable, so what, behind the scenes there are still people who want to put this king to death, no one can save this king for life.”
Song Jing then raised her eyes to look at Zhao Xi, the thoughts in her head gradually pulled back, Zhao Xi grew up in the palace, cautioned against some of the deceitful, can survive to today is not easy.
“The more people give in, the easier it is for people to take advantage of the situation, those who are scheming against you, if you do not get down to ruthless determination, the next time you are being schemed or you, then there is no good luck this time, dignity is not given by the side, but you give yourself, only to make yourself valuable, become strong, the side will be scrupulous, so that people do not dare to calculate! “
Zhao Xi said without speed, but his eyes were unusually serious, his feet slowly approaching Song Jing, taking advantage of Song Jing’s contemplation not to notice, bending down to pick up Song Jing.
Song Jing exclaimed, Zhao Xi added, “This king knows that Jing Jing is kind-hearted, as long as Jing Jing asks, this king will help you.”
Song Jing was a little confused by Zhao Xi’s words, “Didn’t cousin uncle go to the south, how did he appear here tonight?”
Zhao Xi put Song Jing on the couch and laughed lightly, “I just happen to know something, don’t worry, the king doesn’t want anything from you.”
Zhao Xi saw her half-hearted look and added another sentence.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
Song Jing’s brain was getting heavier and heavier, her breathing was rapid, her cheeks were getting redder and redder, and she gradually passed out.
“Someone!” Zhao Xi’s eyes tightened, “Go get the doctor!”
As the day dawned, Song Jing repeatedly had a high fever that wouldn’t go away, her mouth was talking in a daze, and she curled her entire body into a ball.
“Yes!”
Song Jing’s sickness repeatedly, all the way bumpy tossing a few days the little face more and more pale, the whole person has lost a large circle.
Zhao Xi did not dare to ask people to rush day and night, can only rush day and night to find an inn to rest, Song Jing just eased some.
This day Song Jing propped herself up and looked at Zhao Xi, “Cousin uncle, how long do we have to go into the capital?”
“Early tomorrow morning.” Zhao Xi said indifferently, turning his eyes to glance at Song Jing, wanting to say something, “You should rest well.”
“Thanks to cousin uncle for escorting me all the way.” Song Jing didn’t know how many thanks she had said along the way, Zhao Xi smiled lightly, “It’s just along the way, no need to say thank you.”
Song Jing went back to the house, her mind didn’t know what to think about, that day Zhao Xi taught her the words, Song Jing has been thinking about, heart silently determined to change themselves.
In the blink of an eye, she arrived at the foot of Kyoto, but Zhao Xi said, “The king still has important things to do, so I’ll go first.”
“Thank you, cousin uncle.” Song Jing lifted the curtain to say thanks, these few days together, let Song Jing to Zhao Xi changed his view, is not outside the rumors as cold-blooded ruthless, but with a layer of protection, at least Song Jing from Zhao Xi’s eyes can not see a bit of malice, is Zhao Xi time and again to save her from danger.
Zhao Xi hinted and led the guards away in a different direction.
“Your Majesty, are we not going into the capital?” The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
Zhao Xi glanced at Wei Qi, and looked back to see the carriage slowly heading toward Kyoto, according to this speed, about an hour later will arrive in Kyoto.
Zhao Xi actually said, “Go to Lincheng, the king has some things to do!”
“Yes!”
Zhao Xi got into the carriage and lazily pillowed his arm under his head, squinting his eyes in contemplation, the tip of his nose with a faint fragrance, for some reason, this fragrance seems to permeate his bone marrow, somehow making him feel at ease and quiet, he believes that after this time, Song Jing will definitely learn something.
About three hours or so later, the carriage stopped, and the crackling sound of firecrackers sounded in his ears, Song Jing picked the curtain, only to see many red silks hanging at the entrance of Song House, and many carriages were parked, people came and went.
“This is?”
“Miss, there seems to be a happy event ahead.” The coachman whispered.
Song Jing’s mind recalled, she left the Song House only two months, before leaving also did not hear who is going to have a wedding ah.
Song Jing’s eyebrows jumped, a vague sense of foreboding, only to see a man standing at the gate, wearing a large red tunic, about thirty years old, with a joyful smile on his face, raising his hands and feet is a share of elegant temperament.
Song Jing’s whole body froze, that person is her father, Song Susanna.
The carriage was surrounded by a group of onlookers who were talking about something from time to time.
“The Song family is really a big deal, how dare they raise a concubine to the right, and hold such a grand.”
“Master Lu was promoted to the second rank, and is a big red person beside the emperor, and the young master of the Lu family is very likely to be the first prize winner in arts this year.
“The second master of the Song family has corrected Aunt Lu and has a first son, unlike the old days when there was only one first daughter under his knee.”
“Hey, this is what ah, I heard that the second master Song in order to please the Lu family, the future Aunt Lu’s children are all first born.”
“Is it possible that the Song family is going to ask Princess Linshang to step down and give way to Lu?”
“Now that Lu is on the throne, she can’t afford to have a sinner, and it’s only logical that Princess Linshang will bring down the Marquis of Zhongyi.”
The real reason for the sudden return of Song Susanna to Dayong to celebrate her grandmother’s birthday is here.
But why did she have to invite her mother out of the hall to correct Aunt Lu?
Song Jing lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage and approached the Song residence step by step.
At the other end, Song Susanna was entertaining a distinguished guest outside the door, when she turned her eyes and suddenly saw Song Jing, her face changed slightly, then she came towards Song Jing, saying unhappily, “Why have you suddenly come back?”
Song Jing looked at Song Susanna, who had been indifferent to herself for so many years, rarely concerned, faintly detached mixed with some disgust.
“The first thing I did was to tell you that I was too late to tell you about it.
Song Jing smiled lightly, the red was an eyesore.
The first thing you need to do is to go back and rest, and don’t come out if there’s nothing to do.”
Song Susanna glanced back at the boy, “Send the fifth girl back to rest.”
“Yes.”
Song Jing lifted her feet and entered the Song residence, which was bustling with people, maids and ladies were busy, and everywhere in the house was red.
“Fifth girl, the marquis asks you to come over.” A maid hurriedly came and said to Song Jing.
Song Jing nodded and followed the maid and went to the Wind Pine Courtyard.
Song Shiyan’s courtyard was also luxurious, with pavilions and water pavilions, nine curved corridors, and countless maids and ladies.
She wanted to see what Song Shiyan could say.
If you get closer, you will find that everything here is rigorously arranged, and the house is decorated with many rare antiques and paintings of famous people, but it is slightly solemn.
Once you enter the door, Song Jing glanced around the seat are all some sisters in the house.
The head is Song Shiyan, beside the old lady Song, with a delicate phoenix hairpin on each side of her temples, her face is more smiling today, and not as serious as usual.
I always feel that there is something strange, the old lady Song has always disliked the second house, how will dress so spiritually.
“Song Jing greets grandfather and grandmother.” Song Jing bent down and bowed in front of Song Shiyan and Old Lady Song, not humbled, but her face was slightly haggard.
Song Shiyan’s face was cold and unpleasant.
On the contrary, Old Lady Song waved her hand and looked a bit loving, “Why did Fifth Sister suddenly come back, she has lost a lot of weight after not seeing her for a few days.
Song Jing stood up as she was told, walked to Old Madam Song and slowly said the words that Zhao Xi had given her, “I met an assassin on the way, my granddaughter was really scared, but fortunately I ran into Princess Yuan He, who then asked my granddaughter to return to the capital and go to visit my grandmother in the fief some days.”
“Sister Jing’er, is that so?” Song Shiyan had a smile on her face but it did not reach her eyes, and her tone was distant and slightly questioning.
“Fifth sister then, are you alright? I heard that bandits are often rampant in Dayong City, and robbing homes is also common.”
Song Ruo today a scarlet dress extra festive, face delicate and lovely, cheeks and two small dimples, more and more aura forced people.
The words were not very clever, as if she could not wait for Song Jing to be robbed or humiliated.
When Song Rou opened her mouth, a room full of people did not refute her, and even Old Lady Song was also sipping tea and pretending not to know about it.
The corners of Song Jing’s mouth curved up in mockery, she spoke out about the assassination in Dayong City, no one was worried, instead they rushed to press a bad reputation on her, remembering the silver ticket when she was assassinated that day, Song Jing almost didn’t control her emotions.
“Well, Jing has just returned, let her rest and rest, after all, she has just been frightened, learn the rules and regulations well in the future, as a woman should not show her head but should also think about her reputation.”
Song Shiyan put the tea lid on the table with a bang, his tone was unquestionable, the opposite of his attitude towards Song Jing a few days ago.
Song Jing smiled coldly, “Grandfather, today’s father’s wedding, I as a daughter naturally have to congratulate well, how can I be unfilial and go back to rest alone.”
Song Shiyan glanced at Song Jing, with a warning in her eyes, and Song Jing added, “Granddaughter also wants to go to the ceremony, granddaughter wants to know which girl father has married.”
As the words fell, Song Rou’s face changed slightly, “Fifth sister, the one father married is my mother.”
“Aunt Lu?” Song Jing covered her mouth in surprise, Song Rou smiled, looking a bit smug, “Yes, father and mother are in love, so he married her as the main wife.”
“Your mother is the first wife, joke! What do you take the empress dowager’s decree for? My mother is the head of the county and the empress dowager personally granted her marriage, you dare to say that an aunt is more important than my mother as the second mother, where do you put the empress dowager?”
Song Jing looked sternly at Song Rou, who choked and looked around with a sarcastic expression.
“Nonsense! Today is your father’s wedding day, so you’re not sure what to do. It’s not wrong to give a marriage, but your mother has been childless for many years. The old lady Song reprimanded in a low voice, “Only now did you repudiate your mother, it is already the most benevolent.”
“No matter what, my father made a vow when he proposed to marry my mother that he would never marry again, and my mother will always be the second mother, besides, my mother was punished by the Empress Dowager and sent to Liangtai, and now that she has been repudiated, is the Marquis of Zhongyi blaming the Empress Dowager for my mother’s mistake? If Aunt Lu wants to be the main mother, a concubine is fine, why should my mother be repudiated to give Aunt Lu a lowly concubine to vacate her position?”
Song Jing was puzzled, as if she didn’t see Song Shiyan’s warning, Zhao Xi was right, the more she backed off the more she was called to bully, around she was already in this state, Song Jing had already prepared for the worst, so no matter what she couldn’t call someone to humiliate her mother.
“Fifth sister, mother is not a concubine!” Song Rou didn’t hold back from speaking up.
“Third sister don’t talk nonsense, my mother is my father’s original wife, you dare to question the Empress Dowager?”
Song Jing changed her timidity and went straight ahead, Song Rou choked, “You!”
If Princess Linshang was asked to leave the court, Aunt Lu would be the original spouse and Song Rou’s status would be higher, there was still a difference between the original first daughter and the step-first daughter.
No one has mentioned this matter for more than ten years, everyone selectively ignores it, plus Song Jing’s reputation is not good, and not favored, no one mentions this matter, so this matter everyone unspokenly did not speak.
But Song Jing mentioned it.
Old Lady Song glanced at Song Jing, “How dare you! The Empress Dowager is also something you can question at will?”
“Grandmother, isn’t it right for my granddaughter to say that the Empress Dowager’s gift of marriage can be repudiated at will, and that my father’s promise is not valid.”
Song Jing spoke in a low voice, there was a stubbornness and stoicism in her eyes, a flash of disgust in Old Lady Song’s eyes.
“What do you know, a child’s family, your mother is still the main mother, today Aunt Lu is to be the equal wife.”
“Grandfather?” Song Rou’s small face turned white, clenching her lips and flashing her unwillingness, this is still not being pressed by Song Jing.
Song Shiyan crossed his eyes Song Rou, Song Rou shrunk his neck immediately did not dare to make a sound.
“The first thing you need to do is to go back and rest. If outsiders see you, they will think that the Song family has treated you badly.
Song Shiyan waved his palm and had two maids hold Song Jing.
The reason why Song Shiyan compromised was because she was afraid that she would make trouble, that’s why she said that.
Song Jing still wanted to say something else, her body was already dragged by two grannies, “Fifth girl, let’s go and rest.”
Song Jing’s face changed slightly, but she couldn’t struggle against the two maids, so she could only be dragged to the compartment. All the people in the hall kept their heads down and didn’t say anything, and no one said anything for Song Jing.
Song Rou sighed with relief, and her face became more and more smiling, as long as she was the first daughter of the second house after today, and Song Jing was a humble and lowly concubine.
Song Shiyan
Song Shiyan held back and glanced at Old Lady Song, “Hurry up and settle down the guests, and send a few more people to keep an eye on Jing’er, don’t let her get out and cause trouble!”
Old Lady Song nodded, “Marquis, don’t worry.”
With that, Song Shiyan left with a wide stride, and with a look of understanding from Old Lady Song, the maids immediately nodded and quickly retreated.
Song Jing was taken to the compartment, outside there were four or five rough sisters guarding, painting eyebrows hurriedly said, “Miss, ShuYu…”
She and ShuYue had been training together and had always been dependent on each other, but she had never expected that something would happen in just a few days.
Song Jing’s fingers trembled, “What happened to her?”
Song Jing already had an unsettling premonition, the Song family had such a big commotion, but ShuYu didn’t even reply.
“ShuYue was surrounded by dozens of secret guards two days ago when she went out of the house to deliver a letter, and now she is seriously injured, and is afraid that she will not be able to return from her heart.”
Song Jing heard a thud, fists clenched in her hands, “What else did she say?”
“Miss, as early as half a month ago the Marquis of Zhongyi already began to prepare these, let Miss go to the fiefdom of the Princess of Huayang to celebrate the birthday is also the Marquis’s intention.” Painted eyebrows voice is smooth, not sad, not happy, but the eyes are slightly red try to conceal.
“Half a month ago….” Song Jing pondered carefully, something suddenly flashed in her mind, “Related to the He family?”
The painting eyebrows nodded, “the reason why the Lu family has today is also all the He family care, the He family had taken a lot of effort to let the eldest transfer back to Kyoto City, the He family mentioned the marquis, if you want to restore the prosperity of the past, must first reject the second house…”
“This is not a bad diversionary scheme, Aunt Lu must have defected to the old lady, Eldest Aunt…”
Song Jing smiled bitterly, the eldest madam must be aware of this matter, after all, the He family helped the Song grandfather to return to the capital, the eldest madam knew it and pretended that nothing had happened, even if the eldest madam also knew that Aunt Lu hated the eldest house to the bone, but there was a Song grandfather in the middle, so the eldest madam could only condescend to Song Jing.
The people are all planning for themselves, each with their own calculations.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do.
Song Rou has a bright smile on her face, and her eyes are full of complacency, followed by a person, the younger Song Shu.
In the past, Song Ruo always followed Song Shu, but now it was a different direction, as Song Shu carefully followed behind Song Ruo.
After several months of absence, Song Shu’s appearance had recovered a lot, and she looked at Song Jing with a ruthless gaze mixed with hatred and mockery.
“Fifth sister, after today you will be a concubine daughter, today is father’s big day, why are you not happy at all?”
Song Rou stepped forward and tilted her body with an arrogant energy, “In the future, without the status of a first daughter, when you see your brother, don’t pretend to be crazy and foolish, your status is not enough to be a concubine for him.”
Song Jing hooked her lips, “My status is not enough, but you are enough, don’t you know that the Prince of Huai will soon be married to the county princess?”
Song Rou froze at her words and stared incredulously, “What did you say?”
Song Jing faintly glanced at Song Rou, “Aunt Lu… After all, she is just an aunt, the Marquis’ little schemes may not be successful, and you mother and daughter are just pawns, if you get in the way, you will be abandoned at any time.”
Song Rou’s face changed slightly, choked by Song Jing’s three or two words.
“Third sister is still polite, she is just a sweeper who got lucky some days ago and got carried away, nowadays is different, grandfather doesn’t even treat her well, why not give her some lessons so she can realize the reality.”
Song Shu had always hated Song Jing, if it wasn’t for Song Jing, she would still be the first daughter, and now that Song Jing had ended up in the same situation as her, Song Shu couldn’t wait to teach Song Jing a lesson.
Song Rou raised her jaw, “Sixth sister’s words are very true, it was her who caused us to nearly disfigure our faces, it’s time to settle this score.”
The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on Song Jing, but Song Jing caught her arm and slapped her backhand.
Song Rou froze, and a hot pain came to her face, glaring at Song Jing angrily, “How dare you hit me?”
“You and Aunt Lu are nothing more than servants who sell their masters for glory, and you really think you are masters!” Song Jing’s cold face and the ruthlessness that erupted in her eyes made Song Rou take two steps back.
“What are you still standing there for? Catch her for me!” Song Rou pointed her finger at Song Jing and said to the sisters behind her, and several sisters immediately stepped forward to close in on Song Jing.
The force was so strong that several people fell to the ground and grunted.
Song Rou’s face changed slightly, “How dare you, how dare you hurt someone?
The painted eyebrows are secret guards, these people together are not enough for the painted eyebrows to practice their hands, no one can get half a step closer to Song Jing.
“Quickly go get the guards to come over, fifth sister is going to make trouble.” Song Rou covered her face and said to the maid, who nodded and quickly left.
In a short time, a group of guards came out behind her, and her face changed slightly.”
“Miss, Painted Eyebrows would rather die to protect Miss.” Painted eyebrows go out of their way, would rather lose their lives than let Song Jing get hurt.
“Third sister, this girl has good martial arts skills, it looks like she is going to make trouble at the front.” Song Shu suddenly said.
Song Rou’s eyebrows twisted, she would never allow anyone to cause trouble today.
“Catch them for me!” Song Rou gave an order, the guards quickly poured forward, the house suddenly became a mess, full of wreckage.
At this time, several more archers appeared outside the house, pointing angrily at the painted eyebrows, and Song Rou said coldly, “If you continue to struggle, don’t blame me for not being polite.”
Song Jing’s heart sank to the bottom of the valley, it seemed that the Marquis of Zhongyi had made enough preparations.
“Painted Eyebrow, stop!” Song Jing could no longer watch Painted Eyebrow go to her death.
The painted eyebrows stopped and withdrew their hands.
Song Jing was very helpless, isolated and without a helper, and even the entire Marquis of Zhongyi was targeting Song Jing.
Song Rou immediately went forward and grabbed Song Jing’s arm, saying viciously, “See, you are the one everyone hates, sooner or later you will end up worse than your second sister, and when you cry and beg me…. Take that maid away from me, daring to commit murder and injury in the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, you must be severely punished!”
“Miss!” Painted Eyebrow was held down by two rough sisters, but Song Jing said, “She did it by my order, let her go, if there is anything against me alone, Painted Eyebrow is the maidservant given to me by the Eldest Princess Yuan He, you dare to hurt her a little try to see!”
Song Rou hesitated, after all, the painting eyebrows martial arts skills are here, with Song Jing’s ability which can find such a servant girl.
Song Rou didn’t dare to offend Princess Yuan He, so she said, “I’ll trust you for once, send her back to Zhong Ling Yuan, if you dare to make trouble, I’ll make sure you’ll have a hard time!”
Song Jing gave a wink to Painted Eyebrow, who didn’t struggle and let the two sisters send her back to Zhongling Courtyard.
Song Rou’s face was still hot and sore, and she had to go out to meet with the guests later, so she gritted her teeth and glared at Song Jing.
“What are you still standing there for? Grab her!” Song Shu lifted her jaw and told the maid to tug on Song Jing.
Song Jing pursed her lips, knowing that she would not be able to escape from this difficulty today, and could only hope that Painted Beauty would bring help.
Without saying a word, Song Rou grabbed Song Jing’s collar and backhanded her with a slap, a crisp sound, the people in the room froze for half a second, then lowered their heads and pretended not to see.
“Bitch, you really take yourself seriously, you are just a humble and lowly concubine, and that mother of yours, all are the bad luck of the Marquis of Zhongyi, what qualifications do you have to occupy the position of the first born?”
Song Jing covered her face tightly with one hand, her small face was burning hot, if it was in the past, Song Jing would definitely take care of the overall situation and swallow her anger, but now, the more she retreated, the more she was being pressed hard.
“My mother was born noble is not a lowly person like Aunt Lu can compare, do you think you can climb up the branch and become a phoenix by being the first daughter, dream on, who in the capital does not know that you were raised by an aunt.”
Song Jing pushed Song Rou away and threw her hand to return the slap, Song Rou was caught off guard and was confused.
“How dare you hit me, I’ll fight you!” Song Rou stood up, “You guys grab her for me!”
Several maids leaped forward, while Song Rou had a fierce face.
Song Shu looked aside and smiled proudly, “Fifth sister, how dare you still talk tough now, if you kneel down and kowtow to third sister, we will spare you once?”
Song Rou grinned, “Good point, kneel down and kowtow to beg for forgiveness.”
Song Jing stared at her as if she was a small lion that had been angered, showing her fangs, “You didn’t even go to see Aunt Yu when she died, aren’t you afraid that Aunt Yu will miss you at night and come to see you?”
The words fell, Song Shu’s face changed dramatically, glaring at Song Jing angrily, the days when Aunt Yu died, she did have nightmares for a long time, and only recently did she get better.
Song Shu rushed up, throwing her reason out of the clouds, “It’s all because of you, you made me like this, I absolutely can’t spare you!”
Song Shu fiercely pinched Song Jing several times, Song Jing was bound and could not struggle, biting her lips tightly to hold back, suddenly snickering.
“Sixth sister, it’s not a good feeling to be a servant to someone you used to despise, is it?”
“You!” Song Shu was about to die from Song Jing’s anger, her eyes red, her hands digging into the flesh, hating to strangle Song Jing to death.
“Shut up!” Song Shu threw her hand and slapped Song Jing several times.
Song Jing’s ears buzzed from the beating, the corners of her mouth were flooded with blood, her fair little face quickly swelled up high, the slap marks were very obvious, and her face was crooked to the side.
Song Jing was overpowered by the maids and could not move, this moment the small face by the side of the face has been hit more than dozens of times, the corners of the mouth were broken.
Song Jing face always put on a faint smile, not a bit of fear, the more so, the more Song and soft Song Jing refused to let go of Song Jing. There were only popping sounds in the room.
At this moment, the housekeeper hurriedly came, “Old madam, someone from the palace is here.”
Old Madam Song raised her eyes, only to see a few palace people come in outside the door, led by a sister in a brown coat, with neatly combed hair and sideburns, and an arrogant look in her eyes.
It was Sister Yu from Empress Dowager Zhao’s side!
“I don’t know if Sister Yu suddenly came to the residence, but did the Empress Dowager have any instructions?” Old Lady Song’s face softened a trifle and looked at Sister Yu with a slight smile.
Sister Yu smiled, “Old slave first congratulated old madam on her great joy today, old slave was ordered by the empress dowager to summon the fifth girl Song to the palace.”
Old Lady Song frowned, when did Song Jing get involved with the Empress Dowager?
Without waiting for more thought Old Lady Song glanced at the maid, who immediately retreated.
“Sister Yu waited for a moment, Sister Jing has been on the road for the past two days, and was nearly frightened by the assassins on the way, so she went back to rest.”
Sister Yu answered indifferently.
Soon the maid came back and whispered a few words in Old Lady Song’s ear, who looked slightly annoyed.
Sister Yu hung her head and pretended not to see it, waiting patiently without any hurry.
Old Lady Song raised her eyes and looked at her personal Sister Lou, who understood and went out again.
Sister Lou went to the compartment and was shocked to see the wreckage all over the place, and when she followed the line of sight, her face immediately turned bad.
“Bad!” Sister Lou’s heart thumped, “Quickly let go of the person.”
“Sister.” Song Rou was unhappy.
“Third girl, the old lady in front is still waiting for the fifth girl to go over, and someone from the Empress Dowager’s palace has come to see the fifth young lady by name.” Sister Lou’s head also got big, “Quickly go find a silk scarf and come here!”
Only then did Song Rou stop talking and glared fiercely at Song Jing.
Song Jing rubbed her head, her steps were wobbly, and if not for the maid’s support she might not be able to stand up at any time and fall down.
“Sister, just tell grandmother that she is not feeling well.” Song Ruo did not think so.
The first time I saw her, I was a little upset with her attitude.
“Sister Yu is a member of the Empress Dowager’s palace, how can you just say “excuse me”?”
This is the first time I’ve ever seen a woman in the world.
“Sister, what then.”
Sister Lou looked at Song Jing and pinned her hopes on Song Jing, as long as Song Jing didn’t open her mouth indiscriminately, she would be fine.
“Fifth girl, the old lady instructed not to open her mouth freely when she sees Sister Yu, in fact, marrying today is also for the good of the fifth girl, besides, the second house should always have an heir, right?”
Song Jing snorted, “Why should I hide anything? The Marquis of Zhongyi made a big mistake, refuted the Queen Mother’s face and insisted on supporting a concubine, and dared to expect the Queen Mother’s forgiveness for my own good? Don’t you think Sister Lou’s words are against your heart?”
Sister Lou was used to teaching Song Jing a lesson, so she froze for a moment when she saw her refutation, and her face suddenly became embarrassed.
Sister Lou also followed and advised, “Fifth girl, why do you have to be obstinate?
Song Jing snickered, “I pooh! I don’t believe a word of this nonsense, I’ve endured enough humiliation over the years, even worse is not enough.”
Song Jing had an attitude that even if I don’t have a good time, you don’t want to have a good time either, and Sister Lou endured and endured.
Song Jing showed her blood-stained teeth and smiled, her eyes had a stance of dying together, and her tone was full of threats.
The crowd froze, a moment of mixed emotions.
“Fifth girl, don’t worry, the Second Lady will always be the Second Lady of Song, you are also the second daughter of the Song family, as for Aunt Lu, she is just a flat wife.” Outside the door came in a sister, another accompanying Sister Ruan on Old Lady Song’s side.
Song Rou smiled and her face turned three shades white, “Sister Ruan…”
“Third girl, this is the meaning of the Marquis and the old lady, Aunt Lu is the equal wife, while the second lady will always be the county princess of Linshang, and you are the first daughter of the second house.”
Sister Ruan’s face was cold, this was the only way to make the Empress Dowager take her breath away, she couldn’t let the Marquis of Zhongyi beat the Empress Dowager’s face.
Song Rou was shocked, moved her lips and lowered her head not to speak, continue to make trouble may not even be able to keep the identity of the first daughter.
Song Rou took a deep breath, “five sister, you have to think clearly, this matter can be involved in the father, as long as you calm down and take into account the overall situation, after today, I will never compete with you again is.”
Song Shu wanted to say something else, but was dragged by Sister Lou very quickly, Song Shu simply grunted and turned her head not to look, her fist clenched in her sleeve, she remembered this account!
The real Song Jing was cheap, and she could still keep her position as the first daughter, damn it!
She was not stupid, the coaxing was just to get her through the Empress Dowager’s door for the time being, so that she could explain to her that today she was marrying a concubine and not the first wife.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
A few maids looked at each other and knelt down in front of Song Jing banging their heads.
“Fifth Maiden, it’s all the slave’s fault, please have mercy on the slave this time.”
“I beg Fifth Maiden to be merciful.”
The corners of Song Jing’s mouth curved up and glanced at Sister Lou, whose face tightened.
With a clench of her teeth, Sister Lou flung herself down in front of Song Jing, “It’s the old slave’s fault, please forgive the old slave this time, Fifth Maiden is generous.”
After saying that, Sister Lou banged her head towards Song Jing to thank her.
Song Jing slowly stood up and Sister Ruan finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Fifth Maiden…”
“There’s still her and her.” Song Jing had two hands, one pointing at Song Shu and the other at Song Rou.
Song Rou’s heart skipped a beat and turned her eyes to look at Song Yi, Song Shu was also furious.
“Fifth sister, stop it in moderation.” Song Rou was also a little unhappy.
Song Jing sneered, “Then forget it, no one is forcing you.”
Sister Ruan stomped her foot and said anxiously, “Third girl, sixth girl, it’s too late.”
Song Rou and Song Shu looked at each other and remained at a standstill, Song Jing was not in a hurry, and Sister Ruan cleared her throat to remind.
Song Rou clenched her fist, “Fifth sister, the empress dowager has punished your mother, today may not be here to give you a decision, do you really want to embarrass the Marquis of Zhongyi?”
Song Jing hooked her lips and smiled coldly, not putting Song Rou’s words in her eyes, “So what, I’m happy to drag you all down with me.”
At that moment, Man Ju returned and whispered, “Sister Yu has already left the Marquis Mansion.”
Song Rou smiled happily when she heard that, “Look, even the gods don’t help you, Song Jing, I want you to look good!”
“Who do you want to look good?” A cold, watery voice suddenly came from outside the door.
Song Rou looked back unhappily, only to see a woman standing outside the door, the woman was about thirty years old, with a stunning appearance and a stern look hidden between her eyes and eyebrows.
Song Jing looked at the visitor in shock, as if she couldn’t believe her eyes.
“Lin… The county princess?” Sister Ruan also froze and rubbed her eyes, afraid that she had seen the wrong person.
Song Rou ah screamed and took a few steps back, staring at the visitor incredulously, living with the same expression as if she had seen a ghost in the daytime.
“How … How is it possible?”
Song Shu was young and did not have much impression of County Princess Lin Shang, so she was curious about the crowd’s reaction.
Song Shu thought that County Princess Linshang was a guest who came today and couldn’t help but speak up, “Who the hell are you, this is a family affair of the Marquis of Zhongyi, you’ve come to the wrong place.”
Princess Lin Shang crossed over Sister Ruan and Song Shu and walked directly towards Song Jing, her eyes were red and she was clenching her fist with some excitement.
Song Jing’s entire body was stunned and swayed, and Princess Lin Shang stepped forward and held Song Jing, “Jing’er, tell mother, who did it?”
It had been almost ten years since she had seen her, and the daughter she had been thinking about day and night had actually been trampled on like this.
“County princess, this matter is a misunderstanding, the fifth girl went to the fiefdom of the eldest princess two days ago and encountered an assassin on the way….” Sister Lou couldn’t help but whisper a defense due to the imposing presence of County Mistress Lin Shang, although she didn’t know how someone who had been gone for almost ten years could suddenly appear.
“County princess, today is the wedding day of my father and mother….” Song Rou quickly returned to his senses and stood forward simply disdainful of county princess Lin Shang.
“Snap!” The girl’s face was covered and she stared at her, screaming, “What qualifications do you have to hit me?
With a cold face and a sudden flash of severity in her eyes, Princess Linshang gave a wink and one of the female officials standing behind Song Rou kicked her in the calf.
The other hand tugged at Song Rou’s hair and slapped her cheeks hard, fast and hard, only to hear Song Rou scream in agony.
Song Shu has long been aware that something is wrong, although she has never met the county princess Lin Shang, but the county princess Lin Shang’s great name she has heard, quietly back a few steps to hide behind the maid.
“Ah! Help….” Song Rou was beaten without resistance, a small face swollen and bruised can not distinguish the original appearance.
Lin Shang County Princess held on to Song Jing, who was holding back her tears, “Mother…”
Song Jing never dreamed that she would see Princess Lin Shang again, and her heart melted as she called out to her mother.
“In the future, my mother will be by your side, and I will never allow you to be wronged again.” The princess lowered her voice.
Song Jing clutched the hand of County Mistress Lin Shang, and it seemed that the whole world lit up.
“Stop it!” A low rebuke came from outside the door, Old Lady Song came with people in a hurry, the house had long been in a mess, there was no place to get down.
The first time Old Lady Song heard that County Princess Lin Shang had returned, she was still a little disbelieving, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw that stunning face of deep pain and disgust, and took a few steps back in shock.
“Is it really you?”
The county princess Lin Shang untied her cloak and tied it around Song Jing, hooking her lips in a smile, “Old lady, you haven’t seen me for years, have you forgotten?”
This tone of voice, this demeanor, Old Lady Song was sure at a glance that it was really County Princess Lin Shang who had returned.
“The first thing you need to do is to escape back to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, which is a capital crime. Do you still think you’ve hurt the Marquis of Zhongyi enough?” The old lady Song did not know anything in advance, but she thought that it must have been Lord Lin Shang who sneaked back in, and with this handle, it was not too much to execute Lord Lin Shang.
The county princess of Lin Shang hooked her lips, “Old madam is old, why is her brain not good enough, this county princess all the way from Kyoto back to Zhong Yi marquis, without a pardon, would not dare to return to the house privately?”
Old Lady Song’s face turned red as she glared angrily at County Mistress Lin Shang.
“If I didn’t happen to return today, I would have almost missed the good show.” The female official continued to hit Song Rou’s entire head numb, unable to say anything to plead for mercy, and could only look at Old Lady Song with her eyes, praying that Old Lady Song could save her.
“Stop it!” Old Lady Song had been raised for many years and had long been accustomed to her exclusive personality, and who among the juniors dared to disobey her.
Unfortunately, she ran into a bane today, as County Princess Lin Shang’s eyes glanced at Song Shu, and immediately some guards pulled Song Shu back.
“Ah! Grandmother save me save me!” Song Shu screamed out of fear and subconsciously retreated backwards, but she was no match for the guards and quickly knelt on the ground side by side with Song Rou.
“Snap!” The guard unceremoniously slapped her white face, and if she hadn’t been dragged, Song Shu would have fallen to the ground, her whole head buzzing.
The room was filled with the sound of crying, the old lady Song’s face was blue and white, and she looked at the county princess Linshang with an iron face, “Stop it! Stop them, it’s against them!”
The county princess Linshang heart held a rage, can not wait to burn the whole Zhong Yi Marquis Mansion, finger pointed at Sister Ruan and Sister Lou.
The two subconsciously legs a weak, “Old Lady!”
Old Lady Song stepped forward and blocked in front of the two, “Do you have any rules, what kind of day is this, as soon as you come back, you have to make a mess, these two are my side sisters, what are you doing?”
The two of them fell to the ground softly, grunting, with blood at the corners of their mouths, almost fainting to death.
The two of them fell to the ground softly, grunting, with blood at the corners of their mouths, almost fainting. “Say, who did it in the house today, if the old lady insists on stopping, don’t blame me for being ungracious.”
The county princess Lin Shang did not take Old Lady Song’s words seriously, her eyes were stern as she looked at Old Lady Song, “Old Lady should obediently hand over these two unruly slaves to me, and save yourself from suffering an unwarranted disaster!”
“You dare?!” Old Lady Song’s chest was heaving with anger, her fingers trembling as she pointed at County Mistress Lin Shang, she didn’t believe that County Mistress Lin Shang had the audacity to allow her underlings to make a move on her!
“This county princess has always had little patience and has never cared about reputation, old lady, you should know the nature of this county princess.”
The county princess glanced at the old lady Song, and spoke seriously word by word.
The old lady Song looked at Song Jing who was covered in scars, no wonder the county princess Lin Shang was so angry, once she remembered what the county princess Lin Shang had done in the past, the old lady Song’s heart tightened and her feet unconsciously took a step back.
“Old Lady!” The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
The old lady Song was red-faced, her steps seemed to have a thousand pounds, could not move to lift, quite annoyed glared at the two lying on the ground, especially Song Rou.
The concubine is a concubine, can not be moved to the stage, but annoyed the county princess Linshang, make the old lady Song some embarrassed.
“What’s going on?”
As soon as Old Lady Song heard this sound, her shoulders were relieved and she immediately turned her head back to see that Song Shiyan and the younger members of the Song family had come.
The most conspicuous person in the crowd was Song Susanna in a red dress, elegant and elegant, the whole person was elegant and more spiritual.
Song Susanna’s body straightened up the moment she saw Princess Lin Shang, “Lin Shang….”
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the other side.
“Marquis, as soon as Lin Shang came back, it became such a mess, there are many guests outside, how can outsiders still look at the Marquis of Zhongyi ah.” The old lady Song walked to the side of Song Shiyan, the bottom is also full of energy.
Song Shiyan looked around the circle, turned to look at the county princess Linshang, said in a deep voice, “What exactly do you want to do?”
The county princess of Lin Shang glanced at Song Shiyan, “The marquis is so imposing, in terms of status, the county princess is the second-ranking county princess, the Marquis of Zhongyi is only the third-ranking, the marquis is trying to offend the superior?”
Song Shiyan frowned in displeasure.
Old Lady Song immediately said, “I think you are crazy in the temple, the marquis is your father-in-law, you dare to contradict this is a big unfilial!”
“Oh!” The old lady is not wrong in saying that the old lady is old and her brain is not good, today it is Song Susanna who is marrying and wants to repudiate the old lady, tell me, what kind of elder is this?”
“You!” Old Lady Song was speechless, choked by the county princess Lin Shang could not say anything, only dry stare at the side.
Song Shiyan glanced at Song Jing, his eyes implied a warning, “Sister Jing’er, today’s marriage is an ordinary wife, who told you to repudiate your mother?”
Song Jing gritted her teeth and held herself up, suddenly grinning, “Grandfather said yes, my mother is still the mother of the second house, it’s all because third sister and sixth sister and these lackeys got it wrong.”
Song Shiyan saw Song Jing’s face turn a little better, and glanced at her, and was about to get angry at the minions in the house, when she heard Song Jing say again.
“Third sister also said that granddaughter is a lowly concubine, want to marry granddaughter like second sister, suffer a lot, these two sisters in the even more fist and kicked granddaughter, also do not know whose intention?”
Song Jing had been disappointed with the Marquis of Zhongyi for a long time, and at this moment, she would have no qualms about it, and she didn’t want to give the county princess Linshang a bad reputation as soon as she returned to the house.
Song Shiyan’s face sank fiercely, and her eagle-like eyes stared at Song Jing closely.
“Ancestor… Grandfather, she’s talking nonsense!” Song Rou climbed up and looked at Song Shiyan with aggression, “Grandfather, I didn’t say those words…”
How dare Song Rou admit this, she bit down and denied it, “Fifth sister has a maidservant who knows martial arts beside her, she has injured many people, granddaughter is afraid that fifth sister will go out and cause trouble, so she asked people to stop fifth sister, who knows that fifth sister is anxious to struggle and accidentally got injured.”
Song Jing sneered, “Third sister, this room of maids and women are all witnesses, grandfather, why not drag them all out and cane them, tell lies and cane them to death, tell the truth and spare a life, there will always be asked the truth.”
Song Rou’s heart tightened, “Why are you so cruel, what day is today, this is bad luck enough, what else do you want, you are still the first daughter, my mother as a plain wife is not enough?”
Song Rou secretly hated, she must become the first daughter, even if the county princess Lin Shang came back, so what, but still not favored.
She stood aside and looked at Song Jing, both relieved and heartbroken, how her daughter had been treated unfairly.
She wanted to see what these people could argue.
“Sister Jing’er, have you had enough?” Song Susanna reprimanded, looking at Song Jing with a displeased face, “So many lives are worthless in your eyes, how can you be so cruel at such a young age.”
Song Jing snorted and looked at Song Susanna, “According to the rituals, even though a child born of a plain wife is the first child, there is a difference between her and the first wife, so it doesn’t make sense for father to be in red.”
The first time I saw him, he was wearing a lighter shade of red.
“Father, the letter of repudiation…” Song Jing had just said half of it when Song Shiyan immediately kicked Song Rou violently, “Don’t tell the truth yet!”
Song Ruo was caught off guard and kicked to the ground, covering her chest and fiercely spitting out a large mouthful of blood, a sharp pain at her chest, looking at Song Shiyan in horror.
“What are you waiting for? Drag them all out and kill them with a cane!”
Song Shiyan is furious, first the Empress Dowager’s Palace Sister Yu came over for questioning, followed by the return of Princess Linshang, all this is clearly aimed at the Marquis of Zhongyi, this is obviously the Empress Dowager’s warning to the Marquis of Zhongyi.
The girl is given by the Empress Dowager to Song Susanna, the Marquis of Zhongyi rested the girl, is not discontent with the Empress Dowager.
I thought that after so many years, the Empress Dowager has long stopped paying attention to the Zhong Yi Marquis, which took the risk of doing this.
Now Zhong Yi Marquis is no matter how dare not admit is repudiated Lin Shang County, can only claim that today is the second house to marry the wife, otherwise the empress will not spare Zhong Yi Marquis.
Song Shiyan to give Lin Shang County princess to calm down, must first appease Song Jing.
“Marquis spare your life!” The maids and maids were all frozen and kept kowtowing towards Song Shiyan, and after a while, they kowtowed at Song Jing.
“It’s all the slave maids’ fault, please also ask Fifth Maiden to lift up her hand…”
Sister Ruan and Sister Lou were also among them, seeing that Song Shiyan was not joking, their hearts sank fiercely downward and looked at Old Lady Song for help.
Old Lady Song’s face was ironic, “Marquis, killing so many servant girls in one moment will not only be a bad thing for Jing’s reputation…”
“The old lady just said in front of everyone that she had repudiated my mother, sent people to imprison me and forbade me to go out to visit my father’s wedding, and said that she would keep me under house arrest in the Zhongling courtyard for the rest of my life, saying that I was a lowly sweeper who would only harm the Marquis of Zhongyi….”
“That’s enough!” Old Lady Song coldly interrupted Song Jing’s words, these words were simply pouring oil on the fire, she was sure that Song Jing was doing it on purpose.
Song Jing pretended to be confused, “Didn’t Old Madam mention this, all the servant girls present heard it, didn’t they?”
Song Jing said and glanced around, where her eyes went, the maids froze, but quickly nodded their heads.
Old Lady Song was so angry that she felt a pain in her chest, and glared fiercely at the maidservants who had just nodded, and those maidservants all lowered their heads and said nothing.
Song Jing then looked at the maids and grannies who did not nod, and pointed out their hands one by one, “Drag them out and cane them to death!”
Those few people’s faces changed dramatically, “Fifth Maiden, be merciful…”
Several people were dragged out, and soon the sound of the board and screams rang out from outside the house, mixing with each other, and the people in the house listened with slightly changed faces.
Old Lady Song was cold-faced and shivering with anger, while Song Jing smiled faintly and waited patiently.
As expected, soon a voice rang out from outside, “Marquis, it is the old lady who said that the fifth girl is true.”
The servants outside began to agree with Song Jing’s words, tearing their voices and shouting, afraid that the people in the house would not hear them.
Old Lady Song’s face was iron blue and her breath was uneven, glaring at Song Jing angrily.
Song Jing lightly glanced at Old Lady Song, and then looked at Song Shiyan, that posture was clearly to ask for a statement.
Song Shiyan’s fist clenched and unclenched, repeatedly, and then took a deep breath and looked at Old Lady Song, “This matter was mishandled by you, apologize to Jing.”
“Marquis?!” Old Lady Song looked at Song Shiyan incredulously, asking her, an elder, to apologize to a junior in public, how could she still have authority in the house in the future?
Song Shiyan’s cold face and stern eyes made Old Lady Song swallow the second half of her sentence and hold it back, “Jing sister’er, grandmother is old and got things wrong, don’t take it to heart, you are the first daughter of the Marquis of Zhongyi, how could you be a sweeper?”
Old Madam Song forced these words out of her throat and was forced to smile helplessly.
Song Jing stood there unmoved, Old Madam Song pursed her lips, furious but could only hold back her anger, “It must be Sister Lou and Sister Ruan, the two lackeys who listened to the slanderous rumors, the slaves deceived their masters and disobeyed them, that’s why they made a big mistake, Sister Jing’er, grandmother will take out your anger now, someone, put Sister Ruan and Sister Lou to death!”
Old Madam Song had no choice but to grit her teeth and abandon the two beloved mothers, but in her heart, she was annoyed with Song Jing, secretly hating her for not knowing what was good and bad.
Song Shiyan looked at Song Jing, who also knew that she should not be too hasty, so she said, “Since the two sisters didn’t know what to do, it’s none of Old Madam’s business.”
As expected, Song Shiyan’s face eased up as soon as she heard this, and glanced at Princess Linshang, and said, “All the maids outside are to be killed, and all those in the house are to be sold!”
The maids in the house sighed with relief at the words, better to be sold than killed.
If the county princess Linshang’s temper used to be, she would never punish a few servant girls and then easily forgive them, but now she won’t refute Song Jing’s face for the sake of a moment.
This time the maid whispered in the ear of Princess Lin Shang and said, “Princess, the doctor is waiting in the Zhongling courtyard.”
County princess Lin Shang nodded and went forward to support Song Jing, and also loosened her mouth, “That’s all, today’s matter will end here.”
When she passed by Song Susanna, she glanced at her and said in a cold voice, “Don’t even think about repudiating your wife, if you want to divorce, bring a letter of divorce!
The reason why he repudiated his wife was because the princess had dragged the Marquis of Zhongyi into it, and now that he was back, he was unwilling to talk about repudiating his wife.
Song Shiyan glanced at the back of Princess Linshang and immediately looked at his personal guard, “Go and find out what is going on.”
“Yes!”
“Marquis, the auspicious time has arrived, and the guests are still waiting outside.” The butler reminded in a low voice.
Song Susanna immediately looked at Song Shiyan, who said in a deep voice, “Go!”
Song Susanna had no choice but to go to the front hall and proceed with the wedding in a trance.
Zhongling Courtyard
The sound of firecrackers rang out in her ears every now and then, but she didn’t care about it anymore.
The doctor applied medicine to Song Jing and wrapped it with a bandage, admonishing, “Don’t go out into the wind and avoid touching water in these few days.
Fortunately, the injury is not deep and will heal in a few days.”
The county princess nodded her head, “Thank you, doctor.”
The doctor left some prescriptions for warming and toning, and then left.
“Does it hurt?” The princess could not hold back her tears of pain.
Song Jing shook her head, “Mother, my daughter is not in pain, this small injury is nothing.”
These words fell on the ears of County Princess Linshang and were heartfelt. I think Song Jing must have suffered a lot of grievances in the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence over the years and was used to it, so she felt no pain.
The girl’s head was nodding, and she pulled Song Jing to ask for a long time, and Song Jing was also very patient in telling her.
“County princess, there are still long days ahead, there is no need to rush for a while, it is better to let the young lady take a good rest.” Sister Fang advised in a low voice, not to mention Princess Linshang, even she was heartbroken to see Song Jing being bullied in such a state.
The princess nodded her head, “This year, mother will stay here with you, I’m not going anywhere, you can sleep well.”
Song Jing smiled and nodded, plus her brain was dizzy, she couldn’t hold back and fell asleep for a while.
After a while, she heard Song Jing’s even breathing and glanced at the maid standing outside the door, she slowly stood up and walked out.
Standing under the corridor, county princess Lin Shang took a deep breath, “Say it.”
The maid told the story of Song Jing’s time in the house over the years, and even though she already had a few things in mind, at first hearing this, her anger grew and her face sank.
“Humph, an aunt dares to trample on Jing’er, if not for the Yu family running away quickly, this account cannot be settled so easily!
The anger of county princess Lin Shang was not a little bit, her face was twisted, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to swallow, and it took her a long time to regain her composure.
Song Shiyan glanced at Song Susanna, “Do you know how Lin Shang was pardoned?”
Song Susanna shook her head.
“Last month, Lin Shang saved the Zhao family’s wife’s life, the Zhao family’s wife was grateful to Lin Shang and went to the Empress Dowager to ask for mercy, the Empress Dowager did not allow it, but later….
But then the matter of the Marquis of Zhongyi wanting to repudiate his wife reached the ears of the Empress Dowager, who pardoned County Princess Linshang when she was annoyed.
This is a good stealing chicken, not only upset the Empress Dowager, but also welcome back a fatal star.
The fact that Aunt Lu was corrected is a trigger, if not for this, Princess Lin Shang may not return to the house so soon.
The first time I saw her, I thought of her.
The young lady was known for her beauty when she was young, and she is still so young and beautiful after more than ten years of absence.
The father and son talked for a while before Song Susanna left, hesitating for a long time before lifting her feet and entering Lu Qing Yun’s courtyard.
The red head was lifted to reveal the familiar face of Lu Qing Yun, who had heard about this matter long ago and was holding her grievances in her heart, could not help but complain as soon as she saw Song Susanna.
“Husband, it is not that the concubine is picky, the concubine’s father and elder brother originally came to the wedding banquet with great joy, but it turned out that the concubine is only the ordinary wife, so it is inevitable that they are a bit unhappy.”
Lu Qing Yun stood up and took Song Susanna’s arm, saw his expression slightly sunken, immediately changed his mouth, “But I am already very satisfied, I just want to serve my husband, so that my children become the first born and no longer be underestimated, I am already very satisfied, in the future I will definitely put my sister first.”
The first thing you need to do is to send someone to explain the situation to the Lu family.”
The day came so suddenly that Song Susanna hadn’t yet lost her mind, and since Lu Qingyun was pregnant, the two of them hurriedly washed up and lay down to squint.
The two of them hurriedly washed up and lay down to sleep. Lu Qing Yun has been serving Song Susanna for many years, so she doesn’t understand Song Susanna’s nature.
The first lady was forced to be busy for today’s first lady, but she couldn’t look at Lu Qing Yun from the bottom of her heart, but she was forced to help because of the fact that the first master Song had come back and was being pinched.
But the day before the First Lady said she was not feeling well and did not attend the wedding banquet, and heard the maid say that County Princess Lin Shang had returned, and thought she had hallucinated, and asked carefully several times before confirming that it was correct.
“Really came back…” The First Lady froze, her emotions were a bit complicated, and it took her a long time to recover.
She is the main mother of the first house, and the second house is not involved, Lin Shang county princess returned to the first house may not be a bad thing, so thinking about the first lady quickly calm down, as if nothing had happened.
The next day according to the rules Lu Qing Yun to Song Shiyan and Song old lady to salute the tea, Song Shiyan went out early in the morning, only the old lady Song in.
The old lady was intent on lifting up Lu Qing Yun and her attitude took a 180 degree turn and she was surprisingly close to Lu Qing Yun.
The maid carried a tray with two teas on it, and Old Lady Song suddenly said, “Qing Yun is the second wife, and it’s the second house’s wedding, how can we not have Lin Shang?” Someone, go and ask the county princess to come over.
Lu Qing Yun was also very eager to see County Princess Lin Shang, her hand on her slightly bulging belly, head bowed in contemplation, a quiet and gentle appearance.
The first lady happened to enter the door at this time, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, Old Lady Song is too unpresentable, so impatient to embarrass Princess Lin Shang.
The first lady glanced at Lu Qingyun, Lu Qingyun a bright red dress, wearing a phoenix hairpin on her head set the whole person dignified and elegant, but how to look and feel where the awkward.
Lu Qing Yun is not young, such a bright color with a clean face, always feel not enough atmosphere.
This all in one red is clearly worn to the crowd, afraid that others do not know that she is the same as the ordinary wife.
“Thank you sister-in-law for helping with the chores these days, Qing Yun is grateful.” Lu Qing Yun smiled and straightened her back in front of the First Lady, no longer the humble Aunt Lu who couldn’t lift her head before.
The first lady was called by this sister-in-law’s body is all goosebumps, which is not comfortable, only lightly mmm, “all for the face of the Marquis of Zhongyi, talk about nothing tired.”
The first lady is telling Lu Qing Yun that she is doing this for the sake of the Marquis of Zhongyi rather than for Lu Qing Yun’s face.
Lu Qing Yun smiled, automatically ignoring the meaning of this sentence, and said, “If sister-in-law needs any help in the future, I have nothing to do, so I can help sister-in-law, so that she doesn’t have to work hard alone.”
The first lady was crying and laughing, I don’t know if Lu Qing Yun is really stupid or not, this is only the second wife of the second house for a day and already thinking about the power of the Marquis of Zhongyi’s housekeeping, not too much to think of herself.
The old lady Song also followed to help, whatever can add to the first and second house, the old lady Song is always happy to do, not Yin and Yang intimate called Qing Yun.
The first lady laughed and did not look at Old Lady Song, instead she looked at Song Susanna, “Second brother, I am not the sister-in-law clutching the right to manage the family, but Qing Yun is pregnant, the first trimester should be more careful, there must not be any slip-ups, besides, Zou sister’s son is still injured, Qing Yun, the mother should always think about it, I do not want to be said to be bullying Qing Yun I don’t want to be seen as bullying Qing Yun and asking her to help with household chores as a pregnant woman.”
Hearing the First Lady say this, Song Susanna frowned and glanced at Lu Qingyun, only thinking that Lu Qingyun was too anxious.
Lu Qing Yun was busy explaining, “Husband, I also have good intentions, sister-in-law is exhausted for our wedding, my heart is really sorry, so I thought of helping sister-in-law to lighten the burden, do what I can, let sister-in-law take good care of her body.”
The first lady does not eat this set, thinking of the right to say clearly, why left and right involved, the first lady has always been unable to see Lu Qing Yun, before is now is the future is more, also only Song Susanna believe.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re getting into, and you can do what you can to help your sister-in-law.
The first time I saw a woman, I was a little bit of a nuisance.
The first lady’s face suddenly sank, “The account book is given to me by father, if second brother has any objections go to father, father nod, I will never say anything.”
The first lady can’t see the villainous appearance of Lu Qing Yun, like swallowing a fly as disgusting, but this fly has to come to the front, can’t drive away.
“The marquis is busy with the front yard, which has the time to pester in the backyard.” The old lady Song spoke up, forcing the first lady to hand over the power of the house.
The first lady grunted, “Qing Yun did not experience this since she was a child, and she does not know how to manage the family, besides, the second sister did not come back yesterday, the second sister is a famous family, from childhood exposure is this, I believe that the second sister will be more comfortable handling this matter, Qing Yun better nurse the baby.”
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re getting into.
“Is this sister-in-law looking down on Qing Yun’s birth?” Lu Qing Yun bit her lip and looked at the First Lady aggrieved, the First Lady fortunately did not eat anything in the morning, otherwise she would definitely throw up.
“Sister stayed in the temple for a long time, besides Jing sister’s body is not well, which has the effort to worry about these things, sister-in-law is deliberately using sister to pressure me, knowing that between sister and husband…” Lu Qing Yun wanted to say something but then added, “Besides, this is the second house’s business.”
This is to say that the first lady meddles in the matter, the first lady early in the morning was held half a day of anger, looking at Lu Qing Yun pretending, is not based on the Lu family recently some improvement it.
“Then you say what is between this county princess and Song Susanna?”
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
Lu Qing Yun was stunned, looking at the county princess Lin Shang came to the front, the aura and appearance like ten years ago, no, more than before to add a touch of bland flavor, less sharp.
“County… Sister.” Lu Qing Yun forced out a smile, pretending to stand beside Song Susanna, “Sister has not returned for more than ten years, must be quite a lot of rusty, and reunited with Sister Jing, Qing Yun would not dare to divide sister’s time with Sister Jing, besides, sister has always disliked to manage things, husband-king also knows, husband-king also specially instructed no one to disturb sister, so Qing Yun dares to say so. “
Lu Qingyun in front of the county princess Linshang again restrained in the past, pretending to be soft, especially in front of the county princess Linshang powerful aura, set her extra delicate.
This was the posture of Lu Qing Yun when she first entered the house as a concubine, but Princess Lin Shang was beautiful, but she was too sharp, instead Lu Qing Yun was understanding, so she was liked by Song Susanna.
The first thing that I would like to say is that I am not happy with the fact that she is calling me by my first name, but I know that she is angry at the moment, so I am not bothered.
“Qing Yun also has good intentions, I know you don’t like this kind of control, so why don’t you take this opportunity to spend some time with Jing.”
The princess found a place to sit down, “So what if I don’t touch common things for more than ten years, I have some background after all, if you need help, just let me know, it’s boring to be idle in the house, as for Jing’er, she can learn housekeeping at the same time.”
The two sisters-in-law understood each other and smiled, and the first lady also smiled, “Don’t worry, I won’t be polite to you.
The first lady was not alone in her struggle for power, as she was not fond of competing for power and profit, and naturally did not see the power of the Marquis of Zhongyi.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do.
The first lady was more than once glad that she did not target Song Jing, but helped her many times, and Song Jing is now the life blood of the princess.
The first lady was also happy to support Song Jing, and the two quickly agreed on a common goal.
As a matter of fact, Princess Linshang’s face was soothed, and the first lady knew that this was the right step to take.
The first time I saw her, I was very happy to see her.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
The county princess Lin Shang did not bother to see Lu Qing Yun show off, glanced at the old lady Song, “I wonder what the old lady sent someone to invite me here for?”
The old lady Song looked at the first lady and the county princess Linshang singing and clutching the right not to let go, the face is not good, pointed to Lu Qing Yun, “Today is the tea, Qing Yun will be the second house of the wife, you are not in the house for many years thanks to Qing Yun up and down to take care of, such a big happy event, naturally you have to come to witness.”
The county princess does not care about the concubines and concubines, even if they give Song Susanna a few more beautiful girls, the county princess will agree without blinking her eyes.
The first thing that I would like to say is that I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do that.
The old lady Song stared at the county princess Linshang, she did not believe that the county princess Linshang would not feel at all when watching her husband’s concubinage.
Lu Qingyun carried the tea and offered it to Old Lady Song, “Mother, please have some tea.”
The old lady Song did not make it difficult for Lu Qing Yun, “I have waited too long for this cup of tea, today it finally came true, Qing Yun, in the future you must serve Susanna well, you are the great merit of the second house, take good care of your health.”
The old lady Song was always adding to the trouble of the county princess Linshang, deliberately biting the word “great meritorious minister”.
She had only one daughter, Song Jing, and had no first son, which was a great unfiliality in theory.
The county princess Linshang listened with no concern, soon Lu Qingyun finished toasting the old lady Song, it was time to greet the county princess Linshang.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
The old lady Song hummed and quickly left.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the picture.
The first thing you need to do is to look at the girl, who is close to the first lady, “Sister-in-law, why don’t you join us?”
The first lady smiled and nodded, “I have something to tell you, let’s talk while we walk.”
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
The first lady advised, “sister-in-law need not be angry with Lu Qingyun, it is just an unworthy of the stage, so do not lower your status.”
The princess laughed, “Sister-in-law, in the temple for decades, which will still put these in the eyes, all I care about is only Jing’er, I owe too much, otherwise ….”.
Otherwise, she would not have tolerated Lu Qing Yun’s arrogance and complacency.
The first lady nodded, “These days sister-in-law will stay in the Zhongling courtyard, I will send someone to take care of the Wutong courtyard in the next few days.”
“That is not urgent, sister-in-law look after the arrangements.” She wanted to take advantage of this time to keep Song Jing company. The First Lady knew her thoughts and did not say much.
For the First Lady, she would rather get along with Princess Lin Shang than see Aunt Lu’s face.
Maybe we are all born noble and can’t afford to be petty.
The county princess Linshang returned to the Zhongling courtyard, Song Jing has already got off the ground, just changed the medicine is walking in the house, see the county princess Linshang immediately welcome over.
“Mother….”
“Is there any discomfort in your body today?” County princess Lin Shang was full of tenderness.
Song Jing shook her head, “There is nothing uncomfortable for my daughter, I will be fine once the medicine has reduced the swelling.”
The princess pulled Song Jing to sit on a chair and did not hide it, so she told Song Jing in detail what had just happened.
Song Jing is not young, and she will have to marry someone in the future, so Princess Lin Shang intends to teach Song Jing personally, so that she won’t suffer any losses in the future.
The reason why Lu Qing Yun is so strong is because of the Lu family, and the Lu family was promoted by the He family, so the foundation is not stable after all.”
As for the He family, Song Jing wants to settle the score herself!
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
The higher she climbs, the more painful it will be when she falls down.
Song Jing seems to remember what, “between mother and eldest aunt ….”
The county princess reached out and touched Song Jing’s dark hair and said in a low voice, “What you want to say, mother understands, Jing’er, mother and the first house do not have any grudges and entanglements for the time being, as for the other, it is reasonable, more helpers are better than more enemies.”
The first lady was hiding the fact that Lu Qingyun had been corrected for the sake of the first house’s own interests.
Song Jing smiled lightly, “Mother said yes, Jing’er understands.”
After the First Lady returned to her room, the smile on her face couldn’t help but expand, asking Huixiang to help rub her shoulders.
Huixiang saw that the First Lady was in a good mood and couldn’t help but ask, “Madam, the County Mistress and the Second Master’s feelings are flat, plus this time they have helped the ordinary wife, so they must have developed a dislike for each other.”
The first lady laughed, “ask which woman does not care that her husband married another person to add to their own problems, just beat down the teeth to swallow in the stomach, but this second sister-in-law is not what the oil lamp, and see her free hand, will let Lu Qing Yun have bitterness can not say.”
Hui Xiang is not convinced. After all, Lu Qingyun still has Song Susanna to protect her, which is so easy to be calculated by Lin Shangxian, not to mention pregnant, Lin Shangxian was almost repudiated.
“Wouldn’t that be an even more distant relationship with the Second Master?” The first time I saw a girl, I thought she was going to be a good girl.
The first lady shook her head, while the good mood could not help but say more, “you do not understand, the second sister grew up in the jade, straightforward nature rather than bend, if you can put down the body, with her looks, even if Lu Qing Yun to use all the means to exploit the loophole will not be the second brother in mind to spoil, which man in this world does not like to understand people. “
Huixiang more puzzled, the first lady rubbed her brow, “the second sister-in-law’s mind is not on this, holding so many years of anger should always find someone to vent out, ordered down, the future of the second house necessary to send to the second house, even if there is only one also sent to the Zhongling courtyard, a bowl of water end level.”
The first lady is also happy to provide convenience for the first lady, who is angry with old lady Song and Lu Qing Yun.
The first house has the benefit of thinking about the second house, and the county princess will not be interested in the power of the house, and the county princess will save herself from being tired.
The first lady was squinting and sleeping when she suddenly heard the maid say, “Madam, someone from the Lu family has come to visit the old lady and is coming this way.”
The First Lady wrinkled her brow and sighed, her eyes vaguely impatient, rubbing her brow, “Hui Xiang, go and send them away.”
“Yes.”
The Lu family did not enter the door, turned around and went to the second room, the Lu family’s current Mrs. Lu is also the mother of Lu Qing Yun, grew up in a bad family out of all the hardships, when young married a Xiucai, Lu Xiucai examination for many years can barely mix a ninth grade sesame small officials, only recently rose a few steps higher.
Mrs. Lu was dressed in a beautiful silk, with several gold hairpins diagonally inserted on her head, the whole person was dressed extremely rich, her face was smeared with a layer of white powder, following the style of those big ladies holding the maid, straightened her back and walked forward.
“Qing Yun, now you are the second wife of the Marquis of Zhongyi, your status is different from usual, don’t be underestimated, if you suffer any grievances, just mention it to your mother.”
Mrs. Lu squeezed Lu Qing Yun’s hand and carefully admonished her, and asked the maid to bring some tonic products and put them on the table.
“How is the injury of sister Ruo’er, this woman should also be hard-hearted, the aunt is just soft-hearted, should have repudiated long ago.”
Mrs. Lu heard yesterday that County Princess Linshang had returned, and today she came to the door, fearing that Lu Qingyun had suffered some kind of aggravation.
“Soft sister child suffered some injuries and no serious injury, just need to recuperate, mother, this matter is not to blame the husband, the county princess is the empress dowager to give marriage without the empress dowager’s approval rash repudiation, only to provoke the empress dowager displeasure, this matter can not be rushed.”
Lu Qing Yun gently stroked her stomach, softly smiled, “husband and the county princess has been bad feelings, come back also no harm, always dare not do anything to me, after all, I have long been not that humble aunt.”
The moment Mrs. Lu heard this, she said no more, she would not dare to say anything against the Empress Dowager behind her back.
“Since I’m here, it’s reasonable to go and have a look. I’ll go and meet the county princess and see what kind of three heads and six arms she has.”
The woman said, “I’m going to go and see what she has.
Lu Qing Yun was afraid that Madam Lu would suffer a loss, so she followed with her belly, “Jing sister’s daughter is now my daughter, I should also go and see.”
The two of them went to the direction of Zhongling Courtyard together, and Princess Linshang’s brow knitted when she learned of it, “She can’t stay idle for a moment, wandering around like a fly, annoying as hell.”
The county princess Lin Shang thought quickly for a while and glanced at Sister Fang, “How is the selection of people?”
“Your Highness, don’t worry, just a few more days and they will be delivered.” Sister Fang said in a low voice.
County princess Lin Shang hooked her lips and smiled, only to hear someone speak outside the door, humming, “Don’t worry come in.”
A short while later, Mrs. Lu and Lu Qing Yun were invited to come together, Lu Qing Yun smiled, “Sister, my mother is worried about Sister Jing’er, so she specially sent some tonic for Sister Jing’er to nourish her body, by the way, she came to see Sister.”
County princess Lin Shang had been sitting on the main seat and did not even stand up when she saw the two coming.
Lu Qingyun didn’t feel polite and pulled Mrs. Lu to sit down, but she was slightly annoyed that Princess Linshang didn’t give her face.
Mrs. Lu had wanted to pose as an elder and asked Princess Linshang to curtsy, but when she saw this gesture, she was displeased, so she hummed twice, “Both Princess and Qing Yun will be the second wife in the future, so I am also considered an elder, and I am also considered Jing’s grandmother, so I was thinking about Jing, and I couldn’t help but come over to see her…”
The princess was about to take a sip of her tea, when she heard this, she lost her interest and put the tea down with a thud.
“My daughter’s maternal grandmother is the Princess of Huayang, not just anyone from a humble family would dare to call her Jing’er.
This is not the least bit disgraceful, and Mrs. Lu was unable to say anything because of her words.
“Sister…” Lu Qing Yun’s small face was slightly red, and she was still a little angry, “Is this sister disliking the Lu family?”
The county princess Lin Shang grunted, she hadn’t looked for trouble yet, but the Lu family sent themselves to the door first, then don’t blame her for not showing mercy.
“What you say is what you say, after all, this is all the truth.” The county princess Lin Shang spoke indifferently.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public. The family is not as good as the Princess’s family, but as the saying goes, heroes do not ask where they come from, at least they serve the king in Kyoto, so there is nothing to be ashamed of.”
The reason for this is that the government has to take care of the people in the city.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing. “
“You!” Mrs. Lu was choked, but did not expect the county princess Linshang back not only not low-key, but also temper has risen, simply too much.
“I see who dares!” Mrs. Lu thickened her neck, “Qing Yun is pregnant with the first son, look at yourself can not give birth, is deliberately jealous of Qing Yun.”
The first thing you need to do is to get rid of the problem.
“Qing Yun, people are good at being bullied, she is deliberately bullying you.” Mrs. Lu is really not used to seeing the arrogant and domineering way of the county princess Lin Shang, ask which daughter-in-law is not a submissive.
The county princess of Lin Shang raised her jaw and looked at Mrs. Lu with a cold smile, “The county princess has no patience, if you feel aggrieved, you can find someone to cry to, the county princess has never eaten this.”
The woman was startled by the cold look on the face of County Princess Lin Shang, and could not help but feel a chill down her back, moving her lips but could not say anything.
Immediately a few maids and women dragged the two away, maids and women but no polite, Lu Qing Yun was ashamed to find a crack in the ground, so was pushed out, Mrs. Lu is also a face of embarrassment.
“Don’t be anxious, when you have a child, she does not even have an heir will certainly be pointed out, then see how she still mouth hard!” Mrs. Lu was furious.
Lu Qing Yun bit her lip, “Mother, you go back first, I have my own way.”
Mrs. Lu nodded and had to leave the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence.
The first lady couldn’t help but laugh when she learned of it, “Asking for trouble!”
The first thing you need to do is to get a doctor to come and see you, and the noise is not small.
The first thing that I did was to get back to Susanna, and her eyes were red, so she turned her back and wiped the corners of her eyes. The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are doing.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are doing.
So the maid said what happened in the afternoon, Song Susanna’s eyebrows tightened, Lu Qing Yun said, “Husband, sister also said so on impulse, but mother was very angry before leaving, concubine is nothing, but afraid of disturbing the child in the belly, later… In the future, I will try to avoid my sister.”
Song Susanna frowned more tightly, grunted, appeased Lu Qing Yun rest, then stood up and went out for a trip, looks angry not light.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
The princess didn’t rest either, and was not surprised to learn that Song Susanna was coming, so she sat in the courtyard and waited.
The first time I saw her, I didn’t know what to say, so I cleared my throat.
“Since you are here, sit down.” The princess reached out and made a cup of tea and put it on the table.
The first thing you need to do is to take care of Qing Yun, she is innocent.
The first thing you need to do is to get rid of the problem.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
The words fell Song Susanna hurriedly left the Zhongling courtyard, Lin Shang County princess hooked lips cold smile.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do.
The five girls have different personalities, gentle or spirited, youthful or charming, each good at the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, there is a bookish atmosphere, and not like the girls in the building that frivolous, but like a lady.
The five were given names and assigned courtyards, with two maids and sisters.
“From now on you are the aunts of the second house of the Marquis of Zhongyi, give this county lord good service to the master, who can conceive a child, the reward silver thousand taels, the birth of a male heir, in addition to the slavery reward silver three thousand taels.”
The first lady only smiled when she learned that she was in charge of the family but she was only the mother of the first house, and it was not the first lady’s turn to interfere in these trivial matters.
“The first time I saw a woman, I was a little bit of a nuisance.
The first lady has never dared to underestimate the county princess Lin Shang, and as expected, she was not disappointed.
“Madam, the second house is in an uproar.” Hui Xiang whispered.
The first lady smiled, “These things will be seen, no need to get involved, if Lu Qing Yun is a sensible person should be honest, but unfortunately, some people are too big-minded to stop.”
Hui Xiang nodded her head and answered.
Lu Qing Yun was so angry that she smashed the objects in the house in a mess, her breasts kept rising and falling, her eyes were red, “This is too much, how can she do this?”
The five aunts are all young and beautiful, the means to seduce people, is a woman can not help but see the soft heart, but also aunts once they enter the door, stop the avoidance of child soup, is obviously Linshang County want to oppose themselves.
The company’s main goal is to provide a solution to the problem of the problem.
Old Lady Song rubbed her eyebrows, listening to Lu Qing Yun’s cries was a bit annoying, hard to endure before listening to the end, “you are pregnant now, serving the second is not convenient, looking for a few aunts to serve is not wrong, the other people can not pick any reason, besides it is just a few aunts, you are the second wife, can still be suppressed?”
Lu Qingyun choked, Linshang County is the main mother to take the decision to take concubines can not be faulted, on the other hand, on the other hand, people learned that they have to praise a virtuous and generous.
Lu Qing Yun also finally understand a few days ago, the princess Lin Shang will say she is not valuable, there are people willing to help to give birth, the original already have a plan, this trick, ruthless enough!
The old lady Song glanced at Lu Qing Yun, “A few aunts have made you confused, how can you still compare Lin Shang in the future?”
“Mother, I…” Lu Qing Yun could not say what she had to say, for so many years no one paid attention to the second house, so there was only one aunt, Lu Qing Yun had long been used to it, coldly appeared five watery little girls, Lu Qing Yun how can compare with others, afraid that Song Susanna would stay away from herself.
The old lady Song calm a few days, is considered to see, the first lady and the county princess Lin Shang has reached an agreement, two daughter-in-law one more difficult than the other, the old lady Song also need help, only to have to patiently and Lu Qing Yun conspire.
“You are isolated in the second room, Lin Shang’s move has the meaning of gambling, and you and the old 20 years of conjugal relationship, and the second has always been nostalgic, will not stay away from you because of a few concubines, Lin Shang’s temper should be clear to you, has always refused to take losses, you may not be able to get a good deal with her hard.”
Old Lady Song looked askance at Lu Qingyun and slowly advised, “Instead of thinking about those concubines, you should think of a way to keep the child, the most crucial thing right now is the heir of the second house, if you give birth to the first son of the second, those useless people are just a plaything even if they are charming.”
Lu Qing Yun confused look at the old lady Song, old lady Song sip a mouthful of tea, the corners of the mouth slowly curled up, “Well, go back and think about it.”
Lu Qing Yun nodded, her mind kept thinking about Old Lady Song’s words, when she passed by the Zhong Ling courtyard, she heard the maid lower her voice, “Madam, today the county princess has arranged for Aunt Lan to serve in bed.”
Aunt Lan was one of the five, and as she was talking, Aunt Lan and several girls of the same age and size walked towards the Zhongling courtyard.
“Stand still!” Lu Qing Yun gritted her teeth and sternly drank a few people.
Aunt Lan looked back at Lu Qing Yun in confusion, but Chun Xin, the maid beside Lu Qing Yun, immediately said, “This is the Second Mistress, why don’t you salute when you see the Second Mistress!”
Aunt Lan and the others comprehended and bent down to salute, her voice soft enough to drip water, “The servant girl has met Second Lady Lu.”
Lu Qingyun stared at Aunt Lan and hated to scratch the faces of these people, but she held back her anger, and before she could speak, she saw Aunt Lan’s body shake and fall down with a cry of surprise.
This fall happened to fall on the passing Song Susanna, Aunt Lan clutched Song Susanna’s sleeve, a shocked look, looked up timidly at Song Susanna.
“Thank you, Master, for saving me.”
Song Susanna just returned to the house does not know yet, frowned to help Aunt Lan to right herself, lightly hmmm.
Lu Qing Yun’s face was red with anger, and the anger in her chest rose in clusters, “Husband…”
Aunt Lan immediately looked at Song Susanna with shyness and timidity, “It was the servant girl’s momentary excitement that made her unsteady, so please forgive me, Master.”
The phrase concubine made Song Susanna frown and look at Lu Qing Yun in confusion, “What’s going on here?”
“It is because I am concerned that Qing Yun is pregnant and cannot serve, so I took the initiative to take some good concubines for you, they are all children of good families, all are proficient in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
The county princess Lin Shang stood on the steps and said lightly to Lu Qing Yun, “You are pregnant, just take good care of yourself, no need to worry about other things, leave it all to them.”
Lu Qing Yun held her breath, clenched her fist and looked fiercely at County Princess Lin Shang, “It’s hard for sister to be so thoughtful, but husband always disliked the courtyard, sister has so many at once, it will make people misunderstand that husband is addicted to female sex.”
The county princess Lin Shang asked, “Then according to you, the emperor three thousand backyard beauty and what is considered?”
Lu Qing Yun was shocked, she did not have the courage to say that the emperor is faint, busy said, “how can we compare, the emperor is the king of a country, not only for the sake of the royal heir, stable rivers and mountains ….”.
“You are right, I took them for the sake of the second house heir, the second house heir is thin, and you are old, so your ability is really limited, besides a few concubines, if you do not like it, send them away.”
The princess quickly interrupted Lu Qing Yun’s words, biting the word “a handful of years”, which made Lu Qing Yun’s face very ugly, angry and furious, but she could not find words to refute.
The word will definitely get out that Lu Qing Yun is jealous and cannot tolerate people, so this anger Lu Qing Yun can only bear down.
“Master, the servant girl has long been homeless, if the second lady of Lu minds, the servant girl can work as a slave and a maid, just to seek a peaceful life.”
Aunt Lan looked at Song Susanna with pity and opened her big watery eyes, which made Song Susanna’s throat tighten, and said in a low voice, “Since it is arranged by the county princess, let’s do what the county princess wants.”
The first thing you need to do is to get rid of the problem.
“Lan’er thanks your lordship.” Aunt Lan cried tears of joy, excited like a child, her delicate and exquisite face dangling right in front of Song Susanna, a faint scent of orchids coming to her face, that was Song Susanna’s favorite scent.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the body of the person you’re carrying and keep it in the courtyard.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the public.
Aunt Lan smiled at Lu Qing Yun, “Thank you, Second Lady Lu, for taking me in, Lan’er is grateful.”
The first time I saw you, I was so happy.
After saying that Lu Qing Yun forced out a smile, put on a stern posture, fiercely glared at the county princess Lin Shang before holding the maid’s hand and left.
The girl’s head was lowered and her posture was put away.
That night, Aunt Lan went to bed, and Lu Qing Yun did not sleep all night, her eyes were red and bloodshot, and her spirit was not good.
Song Susanna also accompanied Aunt Lan to have breakfast. Aunt Lan was a bit weak, so Song Susanna had some tonic stewed for Aunt Lan, which showed some pity for her.
The first time I saw her, I had to go to the hospital.
“The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
The first thing you can do is to get a good idea of what you’re doing.
The reason for this is that Song Susanna is obviously interested in these people, and Lu Qingyun really does not want to touch the bad luck, so it is not worth the loss, so you can only hold your breath.
“The reason for this is that the county princess is just angry, so she came up with such a detrimental method to diaphragm you, the county princess has not yet had an heir, which will allow those bitchy hoes to climb to the head.
Lu Qingyun listened to the anger dissipated a lot, Lanzhi said again, “the most important thing now is the heir, must take care of your body, otherwise you are in the county princess’s plan.”
Lu Qing Yun lowered her head and touched her stomach, nodded, “You have a point, this lady would like to see what else she can do!”
After Aunt Lan, Aunt Mei began to gain favor again, Aunt Mei is a cold nature, quite talented, really impressed Song Susanna.
After several days of holding back, Lu Qing Yun finally couldn’t resist and sent someone to ask Song Susanna on the pretext that she wasn’t feeling well, and Song Susanna left from Aunt Mei to visit Lu Qing Yun.
This day, she had a conflict with Aunt Mei, and brought the doctor with great fanfare, and blamed Aunt Mei explicitly and implicitly.
Zhongling Courtyard
After several days of using the Snow Face Ointment, Song Jing’s face recovered quickly, with only a faint layer of red left.
“The fifth girl’s appearance is seven times as translucent as the county princess, so people can’t take their eyes off her.” Sister Fang praised.
Princess Linshang nodded with pride, while Song Jing blushed and laughed, “I’m my mother’s daughter, how could I lose her face?”
The county princess smiled and touched Song Jing’s hair, “No, Jing’er will definitely outshine mother in the future, mother will make Jing’er worry-free for the rest of her life.”
The news that Song Susanna had been punished by Aunt Mei came from the other end, and the smile on Princess Lin Shang’s face narrowed a bit, and a snicker was drawn up.
“Look, this can’t be tolerated, let her toss and turn.” The princess suddenly looked at Song Jing, “Does Jing’er have any insight?”
Song Jing propped up her jaw and slowly spoke after thinking for a while, “Lu Qing Yun is now supported by her heir, the Lu family.
The county princess Lin Shang looked at Song Jing appreciatively, fighting with Lu Qing Yun is really boring, no need to lower their own identity, it is better to pull out its root, so that Lu Qing Yun lose reliance.
“The most important thing is that some people think too highly of themselves, and since they have sent a big gift, they should return it anyway.”
The reason why the Lu family was promoted was because of the He family’s help, and the He family had repeatedly schemed against Song Jing before, and this account was always remembered by Princess Lin Shang.
The reason for the promotion is the help of the He family, the He family before repeatedly scheming Song Jing, this account is always remembered. Let Lu Qing Yun so tossed, Lin Shang County princess also right to ignore.
The court suddenly came to pronounce the imperial edict Lin Shang County princess to enter the palace, Lin Shang County princess put on the second grade enjoinment clothes, stepped on the eight people carried carriage, in the eyes of the people into the palace.
The number of times the women of the Zhongyi Marquis have gone to the palace over the years is very few, not to mention such a big battle.
The people are muttering in their hearts, how Lin Shang County Princess suddenly was declared to enter the palace, especially Song Shiyan, it is reasonable to say that the Empress Dowager is very tired of Lin Shang County Princess, even if it is pardoned Lin Shang County Princess, should not see it as always.
It was not until the afternoon that Princess Lin Shang came back, or was sent back by the Empress Dowager’s close sisters, Sister Yu.
As soon as Sister Yu left, Princess Linshang was called away by Song Shiyan and asked in front of everyone, “What did the Empress Dowager want to talk to you about?”
The princess found a stool and sat down, her tone was light, “It’s just a family conversation, the marquis has worried too much, today’s discussion has nothing to do with the marquis.”
A marquis called Song Shiyan very embarrassed, since that day the county princess Linshang back, never called a father, not to mention a smile, Song Shiyan can only turn a blind eye to bear.
“Why is that?” The old lady Song asked, looked askance at the county princess Linshang, “you are not in a few Kyoto for so many years, do not understand the situation in Kyoto, might as well say it for all to hear, save a big mistake, are a family what can be hidden.”
The people nodded their heads, afraid that Lin Shang County princess said something that should not be said, deepening the empress dowager’s dislike for the Zhong Yi Marquis.
The princess looked around and saw everyone staring at her, so she couldn’t help but smile, “The empress dowager is not interested in the marquis, she just asked a few questions about life in the temple and talked about Zen language, she just happened to meet Linlang and had a few more conversations.”
“County Princess Lin Lang?” Old Lady Song was half-hearted and half-doubtful, since County Princess Linlang and County Princess Linshang had never gotten along, how could they have talked together?
The first son of Linlang is really naughty and has not married for so many years, so he is begging the Empress Dowager to give him a wife.”
The crowd breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately not the other, as for who Linlang County will marry as a daughter-in-law, it has nothing to do with the marquis.
Only Lu Qing Yun listened to the unconscious eyelids jumped, there is a sense of foreboding, softly asked, “Lin Lang County Lord’s son is still afraid of not finding a daughter-in-law, I wonder if there is a preferred candidate?”
County princess Lin Shang looked at Lu Qing Yun with a smile, did not say anything, stood up and skimmed Song Shi Yan, “If there is nothing I will go back first.”
Song Shiyan nodded, and soon the crowd dispersed, with Lu Qingyun standing sarcastically to the side, completely ignored.
The first lady also noticed something unusual and approached the county princess Linshang, “Congratulations to the second sister on regaining the empress dowager’s favor, the second sister is really happy for you.”
The girl smiled, “Sister-in-law is joking, I have never liked to meddle, but this heart is blocked with anger, do not send unpleasant, in this house a filial piety word presses people to death, I was forced to do so, sister-in-law should understand.”
The first lady was shocked to hear the words, but she didn’t understand the meaning of the knock, but soon regained her composure.
“So many years second sister’s nature is really a little bit unchanged, we are so many years sister-in-law, naturally understand sister-in-law, sister-in-law want to do what you can do, if you need help, just ask.”
“Then thank you, sister-in-law.” County Princess Lin Shang and First Lady looked at each other and smiled.
He Mansion
Mrs. He got the news and stood up, her eyes widened in disbelief, “What, let Wanru marry Liu Shang, the first son of County Princess Lin Lang?”
Liu Shang grew up in Kyoto City and is a famous playboy, his house is full of concubines, compared to his elder brother is even worse than the wall, now almost eighteen years old, has not yet married.
This kind of person, Mrs. He is not even look up to, do not understand how the empress dowager has the idea to give two people a marriage.
“The actual fact is, the Queen Mother has promised to give the marriage to Princess Linlang before, but she has been delaying, this is not, today Princess Linlang has entered the palace.”
Mrs. He listened with even more confusion, “The He family and County Princess Linlang have always rarely interfered, there are so many noble girls in Kyoto, how come they took a fancy to Wanru?”
The granny froze for a moment, then whispered, “Madam, the one who entered the palace this year is also County Princess Lin Shang.”
Mrs. He’s face changed slightly as she clenched her fist, “No wonder, it’s her who is causing trouble!”
“Mother, my daughter would rather die than marry that bastard Liu Shang!” He Wanru cried as she heard the news and came running with a face of horror and anger, eagerly pulling Lady He’s hand.
“Mother, please help my daughter think of a way, my daughter doesn’t want to marry Liu Shang.”
Mrs. He was busy soothing, “Don’t be anxious yet, the decree has not yet been issued, it is still early to say all this, just have this in mind, mother will never let you marry into the county head’s house.”
Liu Shang aside, the county princess Linlang is a son-in-law, and her nature is an unforgiving, if married, He Wanru will definitely not have a good time.
He Wanru was slightly relieved to hear this, biting her lips tightly, her eyes were about to spit fire, “It was that bitch Lin Shang County princess who mentioned it, mother must not spare her, let Song Jing marry if she wants to marry, I will not marry.”
“Wanru!” Madam He scolded gently, “Princess Linshang is different from before, not only did she come back from Liangtai, she was also summoned by the Empress Dowager.
Mrs. He had faced off with Princess Linshang when she was young and did not have any advantage.
But He Wanru did not think so, there were so many county masters, why was Princess Linshang special?
The next morning Song Jing uncovered the gauze, her face has been restored to its usual white, open watery eyes, the county princess Lin Shang can not stop smiling.
“This snow face cream really has a miraculous effect, in just a few days it can recover as before.”
The princess spent a lot of money to buy several boxes of snow cream, not because she was worried about the silver, as long as Song Jing could be intact, she didn’t care about spending more silver.
Song Jing looked in the mirror and saw that there was no trace of her face, “Thank you, mother.”
“Silly child is still polite with mother what. The county princess Lin Shang pouted and looked at Song Jing, “Ming Hui Hall has sent someone to urge you, if you don’t want to go, mother will help you push it off.”
Song Jing shook her head, counting the days, there were still five or six days left before the appointment time, and there were some things that Song Jing wanted to conclude with the county princess personally.
Seeing Song Jing’s insistence, County Mistress Lin Shang could not force her, so she could only let her go.
Sister Fang suddenly stepped forward, “Your Highness, Madam He is a guest at the house and has brought many gifts.”
County Princess Lin Shang hooked her lips and glanced at Sister Fang, “Deliver a letter to Lin Lang and tell her that I got a new batch of Mao Jian, let her come to the house to try it.”
Sister Fang nodded, “Slave servant will go do that.”
Song Jing smiled at County Princess Lin Shang, “Mrs. He is definitely here for He Wanru, Mrs. He is not really good natured, easily provoked, the He family is not all Mrs. He is the head of the family, certainly not for a He Wanru upset the Empress Dowager.”
The woman’s mother can’t let you be bullied for nothing, right?”
As she was talking, Man Ju sent someone to ask Princess Linshang to go to the front hall, and she nodded and took Song Jing with her to the front hall.
The woman was hesitant to come to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence. To be honest, she was very disgusted with the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence, but she was afraid that Princess Linshang would act too aggressively, so she had to come to Princess Linshang to talk to her.
The first thing you need to do is to take a look at the website.
“If I had known earlier, I would have prepared properly.”
At this moment, Lu Qing Yun was just like taking the position of the mother-in-law to greet Mrs. He.
Mrs. He glanced at Lu Qing Yun and said lightly, “I don’t need to bother Second Lady Lu, I heard that the county princess has returned, so I’m an old friend who came over to take a look.”
Lu Qing Yun was stunned, smiled sarcastically, and when she looked up, she saw County Princess Lin Shang enter with Song Jing, who had recovered long ago, and Lu Qing Yun suddenly remembered Song Rou.
Although Lu Qing Yun had become a wife, her hands were not very generous and she was not as generous as Princess Lin Shang.
Lu Qing Yun sat on a side chair and sighed, “The injury on Jing’s face recovered very quickly, but it’s a pity about Ruo’s.”
Lu Qingyun gritted her teeth, blaming Princess Linshang for being too heartless.
The county princess glanced at Lu Qing Yun, “If you can spare the silver, Sister Rou will naturally recover faster.”
“Sister Rou is not as fortunate as Sister Jing, the snow face cream is so expensive that Sister Rou can’t afford to use it, she can only use ordinary ointment to recover slowly.” Lu Qing Yun sighed with a bitter smile.
The princess frowned slightly and said coldly, “The Lu family is a new noble family, and there is only one granddaughter, so it’s hard that they can’t afford this amount of silver.”
The lady said, “The county princess Linshang looked at Mrs. He, who couldn’t sit still. Mrs. He secretly complained that Lu Qingyun didn’t know how to behave, and what does it have to do with Song Rou that the county princess Linshang privately paid for Song Jing to see her face.
The woman said, “I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to get a job.
“Sister is laughing, the Lu family which is not willing to spend silver for sister Ruo’er, but recently the Lu family needs to take care of up and down, there are bound to be places to spend silver, besides sister Ruo’er this injury is not in a hurry.”
Lu Qingyun sarcastically said to himself. Busy helping to excuse the Lu family, a few days in a row can always be Lin Shang County Princess blocked a sentence can not say, did not have the upper hand.
“If this is the case, the second wife of Lu should say clearly, do not know also think that the Marquis of Zhongyi harsh third sister.” Song Jing did not have the good grace to look at Lu Qingyun.
Lu Qing Yun’s face turned red and she glared at Song Jing unhappily, “How can this child say such things? You and Rou Sister’s relationship has always been good, I was just feeling emotional, seeing you alive and well, but Rou Sister’s only lying in the house, I couldn’t help but think more about it, which is not as serious as you said.”
This seems to be accusing Song Jing of gloating and being unkind.
“This is strange, the second lady Lu knows that the third sister is not well, as a biological mother not to accompany, but to entertain guests, is not the accusation that the Marquis of Zhongyi treats you badly, besides, it is my mother who pays the money, the second lady Lu can not pay, can not I also have to and the third sister with injuries, in order to balance?”
Song Jing did not have a good face for Lu Qingyun, not to mention polite.
Lu Qingyun looked at Madam He and smiled helplessly, “This child has always been at the top of her game, and when she gets excited, she can’t help but say things that she doesn’t mean, so I hope Madam won’t take offense.”
Song Jing’s face was slightly cold, her arm was suddenly tugged by County Princess Lin Shang, only to see a sister come in outside the door, handing a letter of invitation to County Princess Lin Shang.
“County princess Lin Shang, my county princess recently got some top-quality snowy mountain monsoon mist, and invites you to go to her house to try it.”
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you’re looking for.
“Then this county princess is blessed, back to your county princess, put the tea ready, tomorrow I will not be polite.”
That sister nodded, “Yes, old slave will definitely convey this to the county princess.”
As soon as the people left, Mrs. He couldn’t sit still and glanced at Lu Qing Yun, “Second Lady Lu’s words just now really don’t want to be suitable for the elders to say, the fifth girl is gentle and generous, besides, the silver is the county princess’s sticker, so why should Second Lady Lu be upset with a junior.”
The county princess held the post in her hand and looked at it carefully, slowly curved up a curve, watching Lu Qingyun stare at her eyes, and then looked at Mrs. He in annoyance, but could not explain what to do, and could only dry anxious embarrassment at the side.
“Mrs. He, the second wife of Lu this is not once or twice, fortunately I have long been used to it, will not be bothered with her.” Song Jing said graciously.
County princess Lin Shang nodded and looked at Song Jing dotingly, “You have a point, why bother with the others, let’s go, accompany mother out for a walk.”
Saying that, County Princess Lin Shang took Song Jing and went out the door, leaving Lady He with a gloomy face.
“Mrs. He ….” Lu Qingyun was about to say something, but saw Mrs. He backhandedly slapped Lu Qingyun’s face fiercely, Lu Qingyun was dumbfounded and looked at Mrs. He innocently.
“Stupid bitch!” Mrs. He pointed at Lu Qing Yun, “You almost ruined my wife’s good deed, if my wife can pick you up with one hand, she can drag you down with the other!”
Mrs. He now regretted that she had helped such a foolish person to the throne.
Lu Qing Yun covered her face in aggravation, watching Madam He leave in anger, and then holding a rage in her heart.
“Second madam, is it because of the county princess that Madam He suddenly lost her temper so much?” Lanzhi said in a small voice.
Lu Qing Yun clenched her fist tightly, a flash of light in her head, “Let go out to inquire and find out what has happened in the past two days.”
Lu Qing Yun vaguely felt that it was because of yesterday’s trip to the palace by the county princess Lin Shang that the change occurred.
The company’s main goal is to provide the best possible service to its customers.
Lu Qing Yun pupils fiercely shrink, “despicable, how can she be so despicable?”
No wonder Mrs. He hurriedly came early in the morning, it was for this matter, and no wonder she was so angry.
The first time Lu Qing Yun noticed the gap between her and Princess Lin Shang, she was too limited in her power to do anything.
Mrs. He returned to the house and became even more restless, constantly walking back and forth in the house, her face gloomy and terrible.
“Mother, how did the talk go?” He Wanru couldn’t wait to come, He Wanru hadn’t slept much this night, so she managed to stay up until dawn and immediately begged Madam He to go to the Marquis of Zhongyi’s residence.
Mrs. He hummed, “It was my mother’s carelessness in this matter, she didn’t expect that Princess Linshang would come back at this time, bullying Song Jing to promote Lu Qingyun must have annoyed her, how would she give up so easily?”
He Wanru’s face was tense when she heard that, “What then? The He family has served the emperor for many years, father and elder brother are both brave ministers, still afraid of a county princess who has no power?”
He Wanru didn’t believe that there was nothing she could do about it, she was just a county princess, why was she so arrogant and domineering?
Mrs. He rubbed her brow and sighed, “You also said that your father and your elder brother are working for the emperor, and it is the empress dowager who wants to give the marriage this time, and what is the relationship between the empress dowager and the emperor?
He Wanru’s heart thumped and sank, her face slightly white, the court forces are complicated, for the He family, is sacrificed He Wanru and what.
“So the county princess Lin Shang did this on purpose, to bring it up in front of the empress dowager, to get her attention!”
He Wanru’s brain finally figured out that the empress dowager is the emperor’s nominal biological mother, giving marriage to a minister’s daughter is just, absolutely will not refute the empress dowager, so this bureau can only let Linshang county princess unravel.
The company’s main goal is to provide a good solution to the problem.
What a delicate mind, Madam He believed that perhaps County Princess Lin Lang was also one of the pawns.
“Mother….” He Wanru clenched her lips, tears raining down, “Then what to do, how can my daughter marry such a bastard, my daughter has inquired, two days ago Liu Shang also brought back two sisters from the county lord’s house, the nature of debauchery and nonsense, my daughter would rather die than marry.”
He Wanru suddenly grabbed Mrs. He’s arm, “Mother, since the matter of Lu Qing Yun has annoyed the county princess, then we can no longer help the Lu family, since the county princess has returned, Lu Qing Yun is no match at all, and it is meaningless to be an equal wife.”
Mrs. He was so worried that she couldn’t dissipate her sorrow.
He Wanru stood in the corridor and kept walking back and forth, Xiang’er suddenly said, “Miss, the initial idea of this matter was mentioned by Fianhe county princess, slave servant heard that the Huaiwang Mansion and Linshang county princess have some friendship, Fianhe county princess will soon be the Huaiwang son consort, why not let Fianhe county princess think of a way to save Miss.”
He Wanru listened to a bright light, “Xiang’er you are right, the idea was proposed by Fianhe, why she can be the son consort oh and I can only marry a bastard?”
Heung Yee smiled and continued, “Miss, the Empress Dowager has the intention to give you a marriage, but does not know if Miss has a private marriage contract in the body, if Miss has a marriage contract, the Empress Dowager will never break up people’s marriage to make Liu Gongzi whole.”
He Wanru seems to have found a savior, clutching Xiang’er’s arm, as if seeing hope, yesterday after hearing this has been in a trance, only anxious to go to the Lin Shang County Princess plea, but forgot this one.
“Miss, Lin Lang County princess has been favored for many years, the status is no less than a princess, but if Miss found a status not lower than Lin Lang County princess, I think Lin Lang County princess will not say anything more.”
He Wanru found a direction, but soon fell silent again, “In a few days the news of the Empress Dowager’s marriage will spread, who will dare to marry me on the cusp of the storm, I am not willing to condemn myself.”
He Wanru naturally wanted to marry a noble man who was brave and brave, but within a short time, where could she find such a man?
Xiang’er lowered her head and suddenly whispered, “Slave servant thinks there is someone very suitable.”
“What kind of person, you quickly tell us.” He Wanru busily asked.
“King Huai’s son.”
He Wanru froze and let go of Xiang’er’s arm, her face suddenly became stern, “Prince Huai has already been betrothed to Fian He, can’t you want me to become a concubine?”
He Wanru was sure that if she wanted to be a concubine, the He family would never agree to it, the first daughter of the He family would be a concubine, where would the face of the He family be?
What’s more, it would cause displeasure to everyone. If she would rather be a concubine than marry Liu Shang, what would the princess think?
“Miss, what if it’s the Shizi’s concubine, no different from the Fianhe county princess, married into the door on the same day.”
Xiang’er words fell, He Wanru stunned, the two words flat wife deeply imprinted in her head, biting his lips hesitated for a moment.
“Huai Wang Shizi is suave and elegant, his identity is noble, that is the leading noble son in Kyoto.”
Xiang’er said looked at He Wanru, can see He Wanru small face slightly red, clearly is the heart moved.
“Fibrous and will not agree….” He Wanru had always been good friends with Fianhe county princess, naturally she knew that Fianhe had liked Huaiwang Shizi since she was young.
“The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market. The lady is thinking of the old feelings before letting the county princess.”
He Wanru smiled and fell into deep thought.
He Wanru had something on her mind and was distracted for the whole day. Several sisters at home were invited to visit He Wanru, but their tone was full of gloating and mockery.
In the past, she was the eldest daughter in the He family, and she was the housekeeper of Mrs. He, so her status was always overwhelming to all the sisters in the family.
Whenever there was anything good, it would always fall into He Wanru’s hands first, and the rest could only look at it with envy.
Now He Wanru is suddenly set to be a marriage that is not satisfactory, several girls suppressed for a long time the stifling of a relief, this is not, immediately ran to and He Wanru asked questions about the shortcomings.
“Eldest sister, Liu Gongzi is the most beloved son of the Sheriff, and he is also a second son, so when Eldest sister marries into the family, she won’t have to worry about such tedious things as housekeeping.
“Yes, yes, big sister is really lucky, and Mr. Liu is a match made in heaven….”
The words have not fallen, He Wanru angry end of the tealight towards a few people smashed in the past, a few people fortunately dodge in time, which was spared, face sarcastic look He Wanru.
“Enough, when did several sisters learn to look like ignorant women, dare to say things in front of me even if there is no spectrum, Xiang’er, send guests!”
He Wanru’s face was red with anger, glaring at several people, the people saw He Wanru’s anger was not light, they looked at each other, did not know that this is annoyed and angry.
“That’s all, since big sister is not in a good mood, then my sister will come back to visit another day.” Second Miss He turned her head and left, and the rest of them followed.
Once the people left, He Wanru was so angry that she overturned the table to the ground, her chest heaving up and down, clenching her fist tightly.
“How dare you, these bitches!”
The second girl is not young, and was born as beautiful as a flower, it is inevitable that she will have some thoughts.”
He Wanru grunted, “Bitch, so what if she is beautiful, she is still a concubine?”
The second girl, He Waning, was a concubine, and her aunt, Li, was very popular, so she was always against He Wanru.
Xiang’er came close to He Wanru’s ear and whispered, “Miss, Aunt Li has her heart set on the second girl, if the second girl does something she shouldn’t do, then Aunt Li’s hopes will be gone, and she won’t dare to go against Madam in the future.”
He Wanru frowned, Xiang’er and said, “Since the second girl think Liu Gongzi instrument, all kinds of satisfaction, Miss might as well fulfill the second girl a?”
He Wanru’s eyes flashed brightly, trusting Xiang’er more and more, and she couldn’t help but ask, “How can I make it whole?”
“The second girl’s status as a concubine is absolutely impossible to be the main wife, Mr. Liu always likes beauty, with the second girl’s beauty will be able to satisfy Mr. Liu, the second girl has no reputation, so she can only be sent to a small sedan chair to be a concubine.”
He Wanru nodded, “Liu Shang that bastard always likes the new and loathes the old, He Wanning will be disliked in a short time after she becomes a concubine, then she will not be able to respond to the call of the day, that’s what she deserves!”
He Wanru immediately took off a jade bracelet from her wrist, which was of excellent jasper color, and handed it to Xiang’er.
“Slave servant thank you very much, Miss.” Xiang’er gladly accepted it.
The next day, He Waning woke up early in the morning, sat in front of the mirror and was about to freshen up, when she opened the fragrant honey she used to use, but found that it was already at the bottom.
He Waning frowned, the house has ready-made fragrant honey, but it does not have the flavor He Waning likes, the texture is not delicate enough, apply on the face is not pink enough, so He Waning will pay for their own silver to buy outside.
“That’s all, just go pick out some jewelry, see if aunt has anything to bring?”
The maid nodded and returned soon after leaving the door, “Auntie said it’s not necessary, let Miss go early and return early.”
He Waning answered, took the maid with her after breakfast and went out.
He Wanru couldn’t help but hear the corners of her mouth hook up, “Has Duke Liu’s side taken care of?”
“Miss, don’t worry, Mr. Liu didn’t return yesterday, and now he is in Yixiang Pavilion.”
He Wanru frowned, more and more disgusted with Liu Shang, the thought of marrying such a person, He Wanru bones very disgusted.
After simply packing up, He Wanru took Xiang’er with her and set off, arriving at the rouge store before He Wanning.
“Miss, it’s Miss He has really come.” Painted Eyebrows looked at the carriage downstairs and recognized at once that it was He Wanru’s carriage.
Song Jing followed the line of sight and saw He Waning arriving leisurely again in a short while. After the carriage stopped, He Waning got off the carriage and followed the maid into the store.
Song Jing lightly said, “I don’t know who is more skilled than the two girls of the He family.”
The two of them are the most skilled.
Song Jing pursed her lips and smiled without saying anything, her hand propped up on her jaw, her mind wondering what was going on.
Once the county princess and He Wanru get into trouble, the marriage will most likely be stirred up by her, and I don’t know if brother Sui will be angry.
Song Jing shook her head and shook off the messy thoughts in her head, the county princess had a very poisonous heart and was not worthy of brother Sui.
The painting eyebrows are watching from the side, eyes moving slightly, gaze towards He Waning who is not far downstairs.
“Shopkeeper, I want three boxes of top quality hundred flowers honey.” He Waning casually picked up one of the boxes and brought it close to her nose to smell it, spending silver is always right, the taste is really not ordinary.
Suddenly the maid pointed to the restaurant not far away, “Miss, isn’t that Xiang’er who is with Missy?”
He Waning followed the line of sight and saw Xiang’er poking her head around, followed by a woman wearing a white cloak, wrapping herself up tightly.
He Waning immediately recognized He Wanru, frowned curiously, “sneaky, there must be nothing good, go, follow up to see.”
He Waning followed He Wanru all the way with her maid, she wanted to see what He Wanru was up to.
But at that moment, He Wanru and Xiang’er parted ways, Xiang’er left in a hurry, He Wanning did not even think about it and let her maid follow her, following He Wanru alone.
He Wanru pushed open the door and entered a room, soon there was a low voice crying in the room, He Wanning couldn’t help but be curious and quietly put her ear to it, suddenly the door creaked open.
Before He Waning could run, there was a dull pain in her neck, and He Waning’s eyes rolled over into darkness.
The one who knocked out He Waning behind him is none other than Xiang’er, Xiang’er dragged He Waning into the house, He Wanru hooked her lips and smiled coldly, Xiang’er really predicted well, He Waning really came.
“Miss, the opposite house is Liu Gongzi’s residence, just now the servant girl happened to meet the junior who brought tea to Liu Gongzi, and took advantage of the junior’s inattention to sprinkle some cheerfulness san, I guess it should have an effect in one tea’s time.”
Xiang’er is not condescending, her tone is flat and even her eyes are unperturbed, as if she is recounting an unrelated matter.
He Wanru smiled, “How are the arrangements for Miss Peony?”
“Just waiting for Mr. Liu to go out, once Mr. Liu goes out, peony girl will certainly be able to attract Mr. Liu over.”
A man who has been hit by the charm drug, look at the old love and what is the feeling, certainly can not wait to come with, solve the urgent ah.
As expected by Xiang’er, Liu Shang tidied up out of the door and saw a wisp of a silhouette whisking past, dressed up in a flowery style.
Liu Shang swallowed his throat, the bottom of his heart was hooked a fire of desire, a tight belly can not help but take a step to follow the past.
The peony girl pushed the door and entered, deliberately hiding the door, but the person went into the other end of the screen and waited.
Song Jing looked at the lewd smile on Liu Shang’s face, could not help but frown, glanced at the painted eyebrows, “Where are all the guards around Liu Shang?”
The painting eyebrows were stunned, but did not expect Song Jing to notice this carefully, and lowered her voice, “The servant girl just saw that those people were called by the county princess’ housekeeper for questioning, perhaps the county princess Linlang was a bit worried, so she was not there for a while.”
Song Jing held her jaw with one hand, the other hand holding the tea, always felt that something was wrong, smooth, everything was too smooth, maybe it was just a coincidence.
Without thinking too much, Song listened with her ears open, next door was He Wanru’s box, He Wanru seemed to be in a good mood, from time to time she let out a pleasant and moving laugh, not in a hurry to leave, maybe she was waiting for someone.
Song Jing guessed that she was going to negotiate with the county princess, Song Jing glanced at the painting eyebrows, “Mother has always been good friends with Huai Wangfei, immediately send a letter to Huai Wangfei in mother’s name, the two have not seen each other for many years, Huai Wangfei will definitely give mother this face.”
Song Jing was trying to let the Huai Wang Fei see the face of the Fei He county princess.
“Yes, don’t worry, Miss, slave servant will come as soon as she goes.”
Song Jing nodded, lowered her head and lightly sipped the clear tea, focusing her attention on the next door.
Suddenly there was a creak, Song Jing’s heart ached to follow the line of sight, suddenly relieved, stood up and shouted, “Cousin uncle?”
Zhao Xi’s tall stance bent slightly and sat opposite Song Jing, his face was cold, his delicate features carried a coldness, and the domineering aura emanating from his body made people unable to help but tense their bodies.
“I wanted to come over for some wine and food, but I didn’t know that there wasn’t an empty compartment in the big restaurant, Jing Jing wouldn’t mind letting cousin uncle come over, right?”
Zhao Xi gazed at Song Jing, a few days have not seen this girl’s body aura has become different, confident in the intelligent, full of energy, Zhao Xi is very satisfied with Song Jing’s changes.
The kitten finally started to show her wild nature.
Song Jing is a little weak, somehow in front of Zhao Xi as if everything he thinks will be seen through.
The restaurant was chartered by Song Jing to facilitate spying, which would have known that the ninth prince would actually condescend to this kind of place for a meal.
“Naturally I don’t mind, cousin uncle has helped Song Jing so much before, what’s a meal on Song Jing’s treat.”
Song Jing immediately asked the waiter to prepare good wine and good dishes, and in a short while the table was filled.
Zhao Xi was not polite, his long bony fingers picked up chopsticks, his movements were not too fast, not too slow, as smooth as flowing water, and a bit elegant, even eating made people look twice.
Zhao Xi shallow smile, a long time before putting down the chopsticks, Song Jing this is back to God can not help but small face a red, suddenly remembered what.
“Before the Kyoto are rumored that cousin uncle failed to do an errand to displease the emperor, the emperor also heavy reprimand cousin uncle, cousin uncle is okay?”
Zhao Xi ruffled clear tea shallow taste, thin lips slightly hooked, only faintly said, “rumors may not be credible, cousin uncle is not sitting well so?”
Song Jing breathed a sigh of relief, for this matter she was worried, thought so, Zhao Xi has the Queen Mother to protect what can eat things.
Zhao Xi listened to the sound of horse hooves, put down the tea, “Your fish is hooked,”
Song Jing was stunned, following the line of sight to look at the carriage of Princess Huai, Song Jing inexplicably small face rose red, open mouth but do not know what to argue, simply remain silent.
Zhao Xi looked askance at Song Jing, “Huai Wangfu water is deep, you should pay attention to some.”
Song Jing has not yet understood the meaning of this sentence, subconsciously look at Zhao Xi, Zhao Xi patience and said, “this marriage is not the decision of the Huai Wang Princess, even if the Huai Wang Princess know, may not return this marriage, daughter-in-law some tactics may not be good, but you, do not draw fire on yourself.”
After saying that, Zhao Xi wiped the corner of her mouth and left in a hurry as she had come.
Song Jing lowered her head for a moment to think, this year, if Princess Huai saw the movement in the next room, if the princess Lin Shang did not come, will certainly suspect the princess Lin Shang head.
The first time I saw her, I told her to ask her mother to come over and tell her about it.”
The woman nodded and left.
…
The company has been waiting for a full half an hour before the county princess arrived at a leisurely pace.
Xiang’er nodded towards He Wanru, and the corners of He Wanru’s mouth hooked up, “Let her in.”
The county head of the county of the fibrous and entered a short while later, perhaps because there is nothing to worry about recently, the county head of the fibrous and looked good.
“Why do you have time to invite me to tea today, why did you pick such a place?”
The county princess considers herself to be of noble status, and she disdains going to a place of three religions and nine streams, so she might as well find a place with a beautiful environment to enjoy the scenery.
He Wanru changed her happy face, her face was sad and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief from time to time.
The smile on the face of the magistrate was slightly restrained for a few moments, sitting on the stool, busy comforting He Wanru.
“Don’t be anxious, the Empress Dowager has not yet issued a decree, everything still has room to turn.”
The county princess is aware of her own deficiencies, countless times glad that she and her cousin in the Lin Shang county princess back before the betrothal, otherwise the result may not be the case now.
He Wanru whimpered, “Fianhe, you know, I don’t know that Liu Gongzi, let me marry a man with that reputation is better to die, Liu Gongzi all day and night, home concubines, always like new and old ….”.
The more He Wanru said, the more aggrieved she was, and the tears came, crackling and falling down.
“It’s useless, my mother went to the same Zhongyi Marquis two days ago, Lord Linshang did not put my mother in Hanli, Lord Linshang and Lord Linlang recently got very close, we bully and calculate Song Jing like that before, Lord Linshang will definitely not give up, fortunately you were not involved.”
He Wanru’s words made Fianhe County Head not think so, she still didn’t believe that Lin Shang County Head had any ability to do anything to the Huai Wang Mansion.
“Although auntie and Princess Linshang were once close friends, but they have not been in contact for so many years, and auntie is the Prince Consort, how can she be allowed to do whatever she wants?”
The county princess didn’t even think about a disgraced county princess, her own mother was also a county princess.
He Wanru was stunned, she didn’t expect this attitude from the county princess, she choked for a moment, her face was red and she didn’t know what to do.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
“A Lin Shang county princess is naturally not enough to worry about, don’t you forget how Lin Shang county princess was released, and in front of whom Lin Shang county princess mentioned this marriage.”
Fianhe County Head frowned, “It was the Empress Dowager.”
He Wanru laughed lightly, “Princess Linshang works for the Empress Dowager, the Huai Wang House is loyal to the Emperor, what is the relationship between the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, just as the He family will not work against the Empress Dowager for the sake of a first daughter, if Princess Linshang knows that the mastermind behind this is you, it was you who told me to scare Song Jing, almost causing her to scare the horse, it was you who had the idea to let the He family help the Lu family and promote Lu Qingyun The purpose was to trample on Song Jing, and according to Princess Lin Shang’s eager nature to protect her daughter…”
The county princess Linshang can make the He family feel bad, so naturally she can make the county princess Fianhe feel bad, as long as she says something in front of the empress dowager, she will definitely make the marriage not work out.
The face of the county head of Fianhe suddenly changed, finally heard what, “You are threatening me?”
He Wanru looked innocent, “Which is a threat, but I am kindly reminding you that the He family has been working for the emperor for so many years, but it is not for Lord Linshang to exploit the loopholes, as long as the bottom line is not involved, I believe that the emperor will never disobey the empress dowager and carry a reputation of unfiliality, this matter is I resisted, Lord Linshang does not know at all, but paper cannot cover fire and I do not know how long it can be concealed. I don’t know how long I can hide it.”
