Pei Huan said calmly: "I have my own way to make them spit it out."
Just as he was talking, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion came over and said, "I have met the eldest son and the eldest concubine, and Duke Xinguo's mansion has sent a message to the house, saying that Duke Xin is missing the eldest concubine and wants the eldest concubine to return to her parents' home."
Song Shuwan and Pei Huan were both silent. Guo Xin thought Zhong Rou was just fine.
After a long time, Pei Huan coughed twice and said, "Do you want to go back and take a look?"
Song Shuwan sighed secretly. She didn't want to reply, but just sent messages one after another. It was obvious that she would not stop until she returned.
"I've sent all the posts, so let's go back and take a look."
"Do you want me to go back with you?"
Song Shuwan refused without thinking: "The prince is injured, so it is better for the family to take care of him."
Having said that, Song Shuwan was thinking about something else. If Pei Huan went back with her, the people in the Xinguo Duke's Mansion would not dare to move.
Instead of procrastinating, it is better to solve it in one go to avoid trouble in the future.
Not long after, Song Shuwan left.
An Yi looked at the closed door with complicated eyes: "Prince, why didn't you just say that you went there just for the Crown Princess? And those account books, didn't you say it was for..."
Pei Huan turned his head, and the cold air around him suddenly dissipated.
An Yi immediately lowered his head, not daring to say any more.
After a long while, Pei Huan said in a cold tone: "If you talk too much, go to the border and get out."
"yes."
The next day, a carriage stopped in front of Duke Xin's Mansion. Song Shuwan got out of the car, looked up and saw a figure leaving quickly, and couldn't help but snorted.
In the post sent after the banquet at Prince Yong's Mansion, you don't need to think about it to know what they want to do. If they want to teach Zhong Rou a lesson, it depends on whether those two people are capable.
As soon as she entered the hall, Song Shuwan heard a scolding: "Kneel down!"
She looked at Duke Xin Guo who stood up angrily, raised her eyebrows slightly, and the next moment, Mrs. Xin Guo Gong pushed him down.
"Oh, it's rare for Shu Wan to come back once. Aren't you making Shu Wan feel uncomfortable by being like this? I already told you that the post returned by the Hou Mansion was returned by mistake. Don't take it to heart."
As Mrs. Xin Guo Gong spoke, she wanted to hold Song Shuwan's hand, and she glared at Duke Xin Guo angrily as she spoke.
However, the next moment, Song Shuwan bypassed Mrs. Xinguo's hand and gave her a gentle blessing: "I have met Mr. Xinguo and Mrs. Xinguo, Shuwan is polite."
The smile on Mrs. Xinguo's face froze slightly. She glanced at the hand hanging in the air and took it back as if nothing had happened: "Why is Shuwan so polite? We are all a family. Just follow what we said before. Don't be like this."
See you outside, please sit down."
Song Shuwan twitched the corners of her lips, walked around Mrs. Xinguo and took a seat on the other side.
She had made her words clear when she married Pei Huan, and in exchange for marrying Pei Huan, she had ended the kindness of Duke Xinguo to her. Now they are not a family.
"We are not a family."
In an instant, the atmosphere in the hall became stagnant, and Mrs. Xin Guogong could no longer maintain the smile on her face.
"Snapped!"
Duke Xinguo patted the armrest and said coldly: "Song Shuwan, where are your rules and etiquette? You talk to your elders in such a careless manner and you are ungrateful. If it weren't for Duke Xinguo's palace, do you think you can marry into the prince's palace?
?Can we have our current status?”
Song Shuwan looked at him steadily and asked, "Is this the Marquis I want to marry?"
No matter how much she plotted in secret, in the eyes of the Duke of Xinguo and outsiders, Song Shuwan was forced to marry into the Duke's mansion.
"You don't want to, but you have also married into the Marquis's house. The Duke of Xinguo's house is very kind to you. Don't act like a good boy even if you get an advantage."
Zhong Rou held up her skirt and stepped into the hall, staring hard at Song Shuwan. If eyes could kill, Song Shuwan would have died countless times.
"What my sister said is really interesting. You got an advantage and behaved well. If I leave the Hou Mansion now, will you marry me?"
Song Shuwan glanced at Zhong Rou, the coldness in her eyes dissipated. She had always wanted only revenge. She was grateful that Xin Guo Gongfu accepted her, so she never took any action when she was bullied before.
But it doesn't mean that they can still continue to bully her as before.
Zhong Rou took a step back, naturally she was unwilling to do so: "That cripple is only..."
"Rou'er!"
Mrs. Xinguo Gong suddenly spoke up, interrupting Zhong Rou's unfinished words, and then raised the corners of her mouth with a gentle arc.
"Shu Wan, don't meet your sister. It's a rare time to come back. I asked the kitchen to make a few things you like to eat. If you have any questions, wait for us to eat and chat while we have lunch. What are you doing in a daze? Hurry and serve tea. ."
The maid brought tea and respectfully stepped aside.
Song Shuwan glanced at the tea. It was really funny that Duke Xin and his wife were trying to show off one's face and the other's. They wanted to teach her a lesson but they had to keep up appearances.
In the silence, Song Shuwan picked up the tea cup and took a sip. Then she saw the concierge running over: "Master, Madam, Doctor Zheng is here."
Duke Xinguo immediately said: "Invite people in quickly."
Song Shuwan raised her eyes slightly. Could it be that the imperial physician named Zheng was Zheng Chengshou?
No, if it were him, the concierge would directly say it was the imperial doctor's order.
Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Zheng Yao coming in with a medicine box on his arm. There was no abnormality in his movements as he moved around. How could he heal so quickly?
Song Shuwan and Zheng Yao looked at each other, and his face darkened instantly, and he blurted out: "Why are you here?"
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows, with a bit of interest in her eyes: "Doctor Zheng's injury recovered really quickly. He was able to walk freely in just a few days, which is really surprising."
Zheng Yao said disdainfully: "That's the medicine from my imperial hospital. A frog in the well doesn't know what the imperial doctors are capable of."
The corners of Song Shuwan's lips raised slightly: "Really? Then I have to go to the Imperial Hospital for advice some other day. I can learn the skills of the imperial doctors and let me, a frog in the well, experience it."
Zheng Yao snorted coldly: "Then it depends on whether you have the ability to let the imperial doctor teach you."
With that said, Zheng Yao walked towards Zhong Rou, the disdain in his eyes instantly turned to tenderness: "I heard that Miss Zhong is unwell, I don't know where she is?"
Zhong Rou half-leaned on the armrest: "I've been feeling dizzy recently. I always feel like something is distracting my eyes. It's really uncomfortable."
Song Shuwan held the tea cup in one hand and held the teacup cover in the other hand, slowly turning the tea leaves on top. Listening to Zhong Rou's meaningful words, her patience suddenly disappeared.
She said deliberately: "It is indeed uncomfortable. After all, the emperor's personal decree falls on me, which can always make some people feel uncomfortable."
This sentence directly touched the pain in the hearts of Duke Xin and others. Duke Xin's palace had not issued any edicts issued by the emperor for many years. Why did Song Shuwan marry a disabled person?
Zheng Yao's hand was hanging in the air, listening to Song Shuwan's words, he was very contemptuous of her, and his tone also contained a warning: "Prince Princess, I am diagnosing your pulse, please be silent."
Song Shuwan glanced at him casually: "As a medical student, you need to be silent to diagnose the pulse. Does the imperial doctor know your ability?"
Zheng Yao's hands shook: "You, you, you are talking nonsense!"
"enough!"
Duke Xinguo stood up and patted the handrail, and said angrily: "We are a guest at home, Song Shuwan. How can you take Duke Xinguo's office seriously by talking nonsense like this? I will teach you the rules on behalf of your parents today. Come on,
Hold her down for me!"
Almost at the same time, another voice sounded: "Let's see who dares!"
