Song Qinghuan agreed so readily that Xiao Jingtong couldn't react for a moment, so he opened his eyes and asked, "You agreed?"
"Yes, I agreed, what's wrong?" Song Qinghuan responded.
No matter what Xiao Jingtong's intention was to give away the pearl, it was a good thing for Song Qinghuan anyway.
She was worried that she couldn't find a way to deal with the two scourges around Xiao Jingtong, but she didn't expect that these two people would throw themselves into the pillow.
Although Hongfa Temple is also in Kyoto, it is still quite far away from Prince Rui's Mansion. The emperor is far away, so if something happened in the temple, it would be difficult to tell.
Originally, Song Qinghuan was still thinking that if the matter involving Pearl and Agate passed through his own hands, Queen Mother Jiang would be displeased, but now Xiao Jingtong brought it up on his own because of the nonsense these two people said that day.
Yu, even if Queen Mother Jiang is unhappy, nothing will happen.
Xiao Jingtong really didn't expect Song Qinghuan to agree so quickly. He had thought about a lot of things and was about to come up with them one by one, but now he couldn't use any of them.
When Song Qinghuan saw that she was silent, he asked again: "But did you say when to go? I want people to go to Hongfa Temple to make arrangements first. Since it is the anniversary of my sister's death, I also want to ask the temple to build a water and land dojo and invite the masters to chant sutras."
Extraordinary."
Song Qinghuan took it seriously and was only worried about the death anniversary of the late princess, and didn't say a word about anything else.
Xiao Jingtong came to his senses and nodded repeatedly: "Then, how about going tomorrow?"
After a pause, he was afraid that Song Qinghuan wouldn't be able to arrange it, so he changed his words and said, "It will happen in the future."
It's not a big deal at all. Just send someone to go to Hongfa Temple. If you really want to make arrangements, there won't be much to do.
Song Qinghuan said: "Let's do it tomorrow. I will send someone to Hongfa Temple as soon as I return home."
Then he asked: "When is the anniversary of my sister's death? Should you, Brother Chuan, and the prince also go to burn incense sticks?"
Xiao Jingtong hurriedly said: "There is no need to go to so much trouble. Moreover, the father is newly married, so it is not appropriate to conflict. The princess can just arrange the arrangements on the other side of Hongfa Temple."
To be honest, Xiao Jingtong had no relationship with her biological mother. When the late princess passed away, except for leaving some dowry, she didn't even have a picture, and she didn't know what her Mu Qing looked like.
She was so young at that time and had to be held in her hands. She didn't even have the memory to talk about the relationship between mother and daughter.
Over the years, she and Xiao Jingchuan grew up in the palace, and Empress Dowager Jiang always doted on her. Although she occasionally felt that it was pitiful for her not to have a mother when someone else had a mother, she couldn't pretend to have a deep love for her mother and daughter.
from.
In the past years, she had never thought about it, and no one had mentioned to her what she would do on the anniversary of her biological mother's death. Now, for the first time, she just thought about sending away the pearl.
Seeing Song Qinghuan this time, he didn't feel the slightest bit angry. Instead, he was thoughtful in everything, and for a while he felt a little guilty.
Song Qinghuan was not someone who wanted to be abused. She only mentioned the rules once. Xiao Jingtong said no, so she didn't say much. She just told Xiao Ci that if he wanted to go, she would make arrangements.
If you don't go, you won't care.
After the matter was settled, Song Qinghuan took care of it as soon as he returned home.
Just after lunch, everything was already arranged.
Not only was everything arranged well, but I also gave up hundreds of taels of sesame oil money and just asked the master of Hongfa Temple to do a good job.
Song Qinghuan spent money from Xiao Ci's private property, and she used it generously and without feeling bad. Even Xiao Jingchuan and Xiao Jingtong couldn't help but look at her more.
Xiao Ci didn't come back until dusk, with a tired look on his face. He didn't allow Song Qinghuan to get close to him as soon as he entered the door. He only hurriedly entered the bathroom to wash himself from head to toe, and let Chu Han take off the clothes he was wearing today.
All melted away.
Seeing that he looked bad, Song Qinghuan asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ci waved his hand. Apart from eating something in the morning, he hadn't eaten even a little bit of water or rice until now. He was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back.
He asked hurriedly: "Is there anything to eat?"
Song Qinghuan said hurriedly: "You should be ready for dinner, I'll have it delivered."
After saying that, he stood up and went to give instructions.
Xiao Ci stopped her again and said, "Tell the two brats not to come. Just eat in your own yard."
Anyway, this wasn't the first time he had done this. Song Qinghuan didn't ask why and just continued with the order.
Because the need was urgent, the kitchen staff did not dare to delay, and delivered the prepared dishes in food boxes first, and then delivered the following dishes.
Xiao Ci ate two bowls of rice in a row, and then his speed slowed down.
The rice in Song Qinghuan's bowl was missing a noodle. Seeing how he was eating, he couldn't help but ask: "You didn't eat lunch?"
Xiao Ci kept talking and responded: "I'm too busy, I don't have time."
How much effort does it take to eat a meal? I'm afraid it's inconvenient.
Song Qinghuan gave him a piece of rouge duck breast and said, "How about I ask someone to bring you food next time? Even if you don't have time, you still have to take a few bites. You are not young anymore, and you are so hungry."
No matter how many times, something will happen sooner or later."
Xiao Ci automatically ignored Song Qinghuan's words "You are not young anymore", but clearly remembered the words about giving him food.
He felt happy at the moment and responded unceremoniously: "Okay, then I will be in trouble for my wife in the future."
Song Qinghuan smiled and didn't say anything. He just gave an instruction and said it's no trouble.
Xiao Ci did not follow Song Qinghuan to the Qibei Marquis Mansion today, so he asked about Song Youyu now.
Song Qinghuan said a few words briefly, but seriously did not mention Chen Er.
Then he talked about how Xiao Jingtong wanted to send the pearl to Hongfa Temple.
Then he said: "I agreed. Arrangements have been made at Hongfa Temple. A carriage will be sent to take her there early tomorrow morning."
He added: "I thought that since it was the anniversary of my sister's death, Your Majesty should take Brother Chuan and Sister Tong to burn incense sticks. Sister Tong said it was not necessary, but I still wanted to ask Your Majesty what he meant."
Xiao Ci had already eaten enough. He looked up at Song Qinghuan and saw no other meaning in her eyes. Then he said: "These days in Kyoto are not peaceful. You and the two children should not go out when you have free time. As for
I don't want to go about burning incense, so as not to bring back some unclean things."
After a pause, he said again: "You can also send a message to the Marquis Mansion and tell them not to go out if nothing happens."
"What's wrong? What happened?" Song Qinghuan was neither happy nor unhappy about Xiao Ci's refusal to offer incense to his first wife.
But it was a little strange to hear him telling him not to go out with a serious look on his face.
Xiao Ci frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while he said: "Refugees have been pouring in one after another in the past half month in Beijing, and several people have died in the past two days. It is suspected that there is a plague.
