That afternoon, the Marquis froze when he looked at the ten beautiful women in front of him: "Baicao, who do you think sent these people?"
Baicao gave a soft blessing: "Returning to the Marquis, these beauties were sent by the imperial concubine. This morning, my wife said something to the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine thought it was very reasonable, so she ordered the slaves to specially select these beauties and send them to her. , so that it can spread its branches and leaves for the Hou Mansion."
"absurd!"
Mr. Hou smashed the tea cup in his hand angrily: "Call Song Shuwan to me. I want to see who should open up the Hou family!"
Half an hour later, the maid who went to deliver the message turned around, with a look of panic on her face: "Hou, Mr. Hou, the Crown Princess said that she and the Crown Prince have something to do and it is not convenient for her to come. If Mr. Hou has any doubts, she can ask her for answers."
As soon as these words came out, the Marquis smashed everything around him.
Baicao looked on, her eyebrows lowered and she said nothing.
After a while, the Marquis seemed to have just remembered her, and his sharp eyes locked on her instantly: "Go back immediately and ask her to come over!"
Baicao gave a gentle blessing and then left the Qingzhu Courtyard.
On the other side, Song Shuwan was sipping tea with a tea cup. When she saw Baicao turning around, she raised her eyebrows lightly: "I'm not embarrassing you, are I?"
Baicao smiled and shook his head: "The Marquis is not going to make things difficult for a few beauties. It's just the imperial concubine. I brought those beauties back today. There has been a lot of noise, and I'm afraid it will affect the reputation of the Hou Mansion."
Song Shuwan adjusted her sleeves and said slowly: "Then let's influence it. After all, this mansion will have nothing to do with us in the future, don't you think so, Crown Prince?"
After finishing her words, Song Shuwan looked aside.
On the soft couch, he saw dozens of golden needles stuck in Pei Huan's legs. When he heard the question, he just raised his eyes slightly: "Not bad."
A few moments later, he spoke again and asked, "When can I remove this golden needle from my leg?"
Song Shuwan smiled: "Your Majesty, can't you bear the pain?"
Pei Huan said calmly: "Half an hour has passed since I had acupuncture today."
Hearing this, Song Shuwan picked up the medical book on the side and said: "Don't worry, it will take a while."
Pei Huan: "..."
After a while, Song Shuwan took out the needle, and just as she put the golden needle in place, there was a noise outside the courtyard door, and then Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou rushed into the house with more than a dozen guards.
"Song Shuwan, you are so presumptuous!"
Mrs. Hou scolded her when she opened her mouth. Song Shuwan glanced at her and said with a smile: "Why are you so presumptuous?"
"you……"
The Marquis held her down and spoke calmly and unconcernedly: "Why did you send those beauties to Qingzhuyuan?"
Song Shuwan lowered her eyes slightly, pretending to be confused and said: "Didn't Baicao make it clear when she sent the beauty there?"
As she spoke, her eyes fell to the side, where Baicao was standing.
"Returning to the eldest concubine, the slave already explained the situation clearly when she sent her away. However, the Marquis and Madam Hou did not believe what the maid said, so they wanted to come over and ask the eldest concubine."
The Marquis snorted coldly: "So what if I come to ask? Do you know how much trouble your behavior will cause to the Marquis Mansion if word spreads about it?"
Song Shuwan blinked and said innocently: "How much trouble will it cause if this news spreads? My daughter-in-law doesn't know yet, but the result should come out soon, right?"
The Marquis' heart skipped a beat and he roared, "What did you do again?"
Before Song Shuwan could answer, Pei Huan spoke: "You will naturally know what she did later. As for now, please get out."
"go out?"
The angry gaze of the Marquis fell on Pei Huan: "It's you who should go out. How dare you ruin my reputation? Who gave you the courage!"
The furious Lord Hou wanted to take action, but in the next moment, An Yi held his shoulder.
Pei Huan said calmly: "Since you said it's us who should go out, I won't stay here. I'll pack up and leave the house."
When the last two words came out, the person who made my heart skip a beat became the Marquis. He could say it with his mouth, but if he really wanted to drive people away, the first thing he would say to the civil and military officials and the people of the capital was him.
Mrs. Hou, who had been speechless, reacted and immediately took over the words: "Look, Mr. Hou just said a few more words. He is also doing it for your own good and will not really want you to leave the house. Mr. Hou,
Forget what happened today and ask Shu Wan not to do it again in the future, what do you think?"
The Marquis found a step, and after some thought, he followed it down: "If she can remove today's influence, I don't need to pursue the case."
When Mrs. Hou heard this, she immediately looked at Song Shuwan: "Shuwan, what did you say?"
Song Shuwan's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and just now Pei Huan was tough, and the two people immediately gave in, but after a few words they returned to being superior. These two people are really interesting.
But the problem is, neither she nor Pei Huan accepts this trick.
As time passed, the silence in the room made the expressions on the faces of Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou a little uneasy.
Mrs. Hou suppressed the anger in her heart and spoke again: "Shu Wan, why don't you say anything?"
Song Shuwan spoke slowly: "My daughter-in-law thinks there is nothing to say. After all, what happened this morning..."
Mrs. Hou quickly answered: "What happened this morning was my fault. I shouldn't have interfered with what happened in your and Pei Huan's house. I can say sorry to you here, but you have to deal with what happened just now."
Can you give the Marquis an explanation?"
Song Shuwan narrowed her eyes and wanted to reveal the matter with just "I'm sorry". Are you kidding me?
Thinking about it, Song Shuwan tilted her head: "Your Majesty, do you think I should give an explanation for this matter?"
Pei Huan raised his head slightly and glanced at the Marquis' face with his sharp eyes: "My people, why do I need to answer to them? Throw them all out!"
Several guards came in and threw Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou out unceremoniously.
At the same time, Pei Huan's cold voice came out: "The shackles of the Marquis Mansion on me have disappeared. If I start trouble again, you will lose my legs."
Mr. Hou got up, and when he heard the words, his expression suddenly fell.
Madam Hou watched from the side and whispered: "Master Hou, the prince probably didn't mean it..."
The Marquis looked at him and said, "Take good care of your stepchildren. If you let me know that you are provoking them again, I will get out of here!"
After saying this, he threw up his sleeves and left.
Mrs. Hou's face turned pale, and she clenched her lowered fingers. She lowered her head for a long time, but the fierceness in her eyes suddenly flashed, once or twice, she was unhappy, and no one could think of it!
On the other side, after Song Shuwan sent Pei Huan away, she flashed Baicao out of the corner of her eye and said softly: "Do you think today's matter should end here?"
Baicao gave a gentle blessing and asked instead: "Is the imperial concubine relieved?"
Song Shuwan looked at the door and slowly raised the corners of her mouth: "Come here, tomorrow you..."
The next day, a news suddenly spread in Beijing.
"The Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is open to the public. If you want to take beautiful women as concubines for the Marquis and the Crown Prince, anyone with good looks can enter the mansion?"
