What's going on?" Even Song Wende felt something was wrong and turned his head to look at Song Qinghuan.
Time was urgent. Song Qinghuan couldn't tell clearly. He pursed his lips and said, "Dad, it's better to go outside and say hello. Let's talk later."
Song Wende frowned. Although he was unhappy, he went anyway.
The one who came to deliver the things was the powerful eunuch beside Queen Mother Jiang. The Song family had declined and now relied entirely on Queen Mother Jiang's favor to support them. There was no trace of arrogance in this eunuch's face, and he only became more and more respectful.
When he saw Song Wende, he first praised Song Qinghuan, and then said that the Queen Mother was happy that she had many gifts. Finally, he handed over the things that Queen Mother Jiang had given her one by one.
Empress Dowager Jiang used to come to the Song family from time to time to reward some things, but the things today are different from those in the past.
When Song Wende was young, the Song family was still prosperous, and he naturally saw a lot of good things. With a glance, he could see those valuable jewelry and clothing materials, and he suddenly felt a little scared.
The eunuch brought the things and told Queen Mother Jiang's words in a cryptic manner before saying goodbye and leaving.
Song Wende sent the person out, but when he came back his expression was not very good. As soon as he entered the dining room and saw Song Qinghuan, he immediately said angrily: "Where is she?"
While Song Wende was greeting the people from the palace, Song Qinghuan had already told Xiaoyun everything that needed to be said. Seeing that her husband was angry again, she pulled him and said, "The people from the palace have said it."
What? Why is it so grand?"
Song Wende didn't know the beginning or the end. He only heard the eunuch say: "The Queen Mother said that the eldest daughter of the Song family is a good girl. With her here, she will not let the eldest daughter Song suffer any injustice."
Song Wende was still confused when he heard these words, but the eunuch behind him said again before leaving: "Speaking of which, I have to congratulate the Marquis first. Miss Song is blessed. She can marry Prince Rui for the second time.
There is no need to worry about the future of the Marquis from now on..."
Song Wende was not stupid. Song Qinghuan had just entered the palace for a banquet, but he came back early. As soon as he entered the house, he said that the marriage with the Wei family could not be done, which had some doubts.
At this time, the eunuch said a few more words, which immediately made him very angry.
Even if Song Qinghuan and the Wei family did not have a serious marriage arrangement, they still exchanged tokens.
If something inappropriate had not happened in the palace, how could the eunuch say such a thing?
He is a scholar and a person who attaches great importance to reputation. When Song Qinghuan left Heli from the Yiwang Mansion, it was because Xiao Wei was indeed not a human being.
But now that this girl is involved with the famous Prince Rui, Xiao Ci, how can he feel at ease?
At that moment, he sneered and said, "What can I say? It's nothing more than congratulations to us for reaching the high branches of Prince Rui's Mansion again."
Then he said angrily: "You have someone call me Qing Huan and see what she did in the palace."
Seeing that he was angry, Xiaoyun didn't say anything for a while, but only extended her hand to calm him down.
After Song Wende regained his breath, he said: "No matter what the person from the palace said, the Marquis should first ask his own girl whether she is angry or not."
He added: "Qing Huan, this girl, is the best at handling things. If not, then the Wei family will be in mourning for three years, and she agreed."
"The palace has not invited civil and military officials to the banquet for many years, so why today it is only girls from various families who are invited. It is really weird after all."
When Xiaoyun first heard Song Qinghuan explain the reason, she was also very anxious. However, Song Qinghuan calmly explained the whole story and analyzed the stakes. Even though she was anxious, she could only hold back.
.
Compared with Xiao Wei's useless thing, Xiao Ci is not a good person in Xiaoyun's eyes.
But the Song family is not tough at all, even if they want to resist, they can't.
Xiao Yun told Song Wende everything that Song Qinghuan told her in a soft voice, and finally sighed: "I had settled the marriage with the Wei family earlier, and I'm afraid we wouldn't have had to deal with so many things.
"
"I just came out of the fire pit in Prince Yi's Mansion. Is it possible that I watched her jump into the fire pit in Prince Rui's Mansion again?"
Xiaoyun's words were only half of what she said. As soon as Song Qinghuan entered Prince Rui's palace, she assumed the identity of stepmother. She was also a stepmother at the beginning, and no one knew the feeling of it better than her.
Song Wende's anger was quelled by Xiao Yun's gentle words in a short time, and he suddenly became anxious again: "Then what should we do now? If the Queen Mother and the Holy One have made a decree, we just don't want to
It doesn't work either."
This matter really doesn't depend on whether the Song family is willing or not.
The Song family had no power and power, so being favored by Empress Dowager Jiang was considered a tribute to their ancestors.
Starting from New Year's Eve, the entire Song family seemed peaceful, but the mentality of several masters was tense.
No one in the palace came back, so the news was like a knife hanging over people's heads. No one knew when it would fall.
During the Chinese New Year, Song Wende went out to socialize. Whenever he heard someone say one or two meaningful words, he would think about it carefully. After such a surprise, he would never go out again.
On the eighth day of the lunar month, I wrote in the court hall, and on the 15th day of the lunar month, the knife hanging above my head finally fell.
The person who announced the edict was the chamberlain beside Emperor Chengxing. He entered the house with great pretense and followed the instructions in the edict. He first praised Song Qinghuan, then praised Xiao Ci again, and finally said that the two were getting married.
Although they had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, when the day actually came, everyone felt uncomfortable.
But he still had to laugh and reward the eunuch who proclaimed the edict, send the eunuch away politely, and finally deliver the edict to the ancestral hall.
Once the imperial edict was issued, Song Qinghuan and Xiao Ci were confirmed.
It turns out that no matter how optimistic she is about the Wei family, she can no longer have anything to do with it.
Both Tuxue and Xunmei looked bad. Without saying a word, they packed up all the things Wei Yutang had given to Song Qinghuan and sent them to Lizhou with the messenger.
Song Qinghuan sat in front of the dressing table without saying a word, and it was hard to tell whether she was happy or sad.
In her hand, she was holding the red bird hairpin that Wei Yutang had won for her on the polo field.
Song Qingyan came in from outside and saw the hairpin at one glance. Her mood became extremely heavy at that moment. She still remembers her sobriety that day.
Wei Yutang won this red bird hairpin for Song Qinghuan, and even wiped out Yan Jiaojiao's face.
That day Song Qinghuan accepted the hairpin with a smile on his face and recognized Wei Yutang from the bottom of his heart.
But within a year, these things had to be returned.
Song Qinghuan put the red bird hairpin into the brocade box, looked up and saw Song Qingyan, and said casually: "You're here."
Song Qingyan stepped forward, her eyes fell on the covered brocade box, she was silent, and then asked: "Sister, are you happy?"
