Seeing Xue Ning standing up and walking towards him, Song Hong immediately turned around and walked forward quickly.

Xue Ning was afraid that the Duchess of the Protector would see something wrong, so he didn't dare to walk quickly, so he could only walk slowly for a while, and after the Duchess of the Protector couldn't see it, he quickly ran in the direction that Song Hong left.

"Brother, you wait for me. Xue Ning quickly ran forward and grabbed Song Hong's hand, "Brother, why don't you wait for me?"

Song Hong stopped and took a deep breath: "There are still things to deal with in the shop, so I can't talk to you." ”

"Brother, it's okay to be a little late in the shop. I have something to say to you, you talk to me first. Xue Ning held Song Hong's hand tightly, with no intention of letting him leave.

Seeing her so determined, Song Hong sighed helplessly: "Say, what's the matter." ”

"Fang Cai, did you hear everything I said to my grandmother?"

Song Hong didn't answer, but his words had already told Xue Ning the answer: "What kind of person my grandmother is, I believe my brother knows better than me." If my grandmother really didn't believe in my brother, I was afraid that these shops would not be in my brother's hands now. ”

"My grandmother asked me to continue taking care of the shop because you were not familiar with these processes and were afraid that you would not be able to take care of them, so she asked me to continue. If one day you are familiar with all the things in these shops, I am afraid that it will not be my turn. As he spoke, Song Hong showed a self-deprecating smile.

He grew up in this mansion and made it his home. For so many years, for the sake of the Guogong Mansion, he has been doing his best, hoping that the Guogong Mansion will be good, but he didn't expect that the Duchess of the Protector would say so.

"Brother, I never thought of getting this shop back. Besides, what my brother is doing to me now, I see it in my eyes, and I naturally remember it in my heart. Naturally, I don't think what will happen to me after ***, and my grandmother is just worrying about it. ”

Seeing that Song Hong had indeed misunderstood the meaning of the Duchess of the Protectorate, Xue Ning's heart was full of anxiety. But for a moment, she didn't know how to explain it to be clearer.

"Actually, I really don't want to hand them over. By the time these shops were handed over to me, they were on the verge of closure. How many sleepless nights did I have to bring these shops to life. Now that I'm finally on the right track, I want to give it up. ”

Xue Ning didn't expect Song Hong to say it so bluntly, and his face froze slightly, "Brother, I'm sorry." ”

"Why do you want to apologize?" Facing Xue Ning's apology, Song Hong was a little surprised.

Xue Ning pursed his lips lightly and sighed: "These shops are your hard work, and they have nothing to do with me." I'll go with my grandmother and say that these shops should belong to you. My grandmother actually loved my brother too, but she felt that I had suffered too much and wanted to make it up to me. ”

"If you have such a temperament, you will definitely suffer in this city in the future. Ning'er, you are the rightful descendant of the Guogong Mansion, and my name is not right, why don't you fight with me?"

Song Hong really didn't want to hand over these shops, but if Xue Ning really wanted it, he wouldn't fight with Xue Ning for anything. It's just that he didn't expect that Xue Ning didn't even fight at all, so he handed over the shop to him.

When Xue Ning heard this, he pursed his lips and showed a bright smile: "Brother, have you forgotten that I have a very hot restaurant? Moreover, if I really don't have any money to spend in the future, can my brother really not give it to me?"

After getting along these days, Xue Ning is also clear about what kind of character Song Hong is. A person with such a character is very gentle in his bones, and now he regards Xue Ning as his sister, so naturally he will not really ignore her.

Looking at Xue Ning's appearance, Song Hong shook his head helplessly: "You, I really don't know what to say about you." ”

Song Hong showed a smile, and Xue Ning was also a little relieved: "Brother can be relieved, then what I do is worth it." ”

"Miss, no, miss. While the two were talking, Akiba came running over, looking in a hurry.

Seeing her so flustered, Xue Ning glanced at him with disgust: "What's the matter? Don't you see me talking to my brother? So flustered, what does it look like?"

"Miss, something really happened, there is news from the palace, Concubine Ya Niangniang has been poisoned!"

When Xue Ning heard this, his face suddenly sank, and he grabbed Qiuye's hand: "What did you say? Maya was poisoned?"

"Yes, it was said that he suddenly fainted in the afternoon, and then the doctor went to see it, and said that he was poisoned. As for the specific situation, the man didn't say anything. Qiu Ye knew that Xue Ning and Maya had a good relationship, so he came to tell her in such a hurry.

After listening to Qiu Ye's words, Xue Ning walked towards the gate of the mansion, wanting to enter the palace immediately. Seeing this, Song Hong immediately stepped forward and stopped her: "You can't go!"

Looking at Song Hong who was blocking in front of him, Xue Ning's face froze slightly, "Brother, that's Maya." She's my friend, she's poisoned now, of course I'm going to go into the palace to see it. ”

"You can't go, if you go, you're harming Maya and the Guogong Mansion. Song Hong took Xue Ning's hand and dragged her towards her yard.

Xue Ning was pulled back by Song Hong, and reached out to knock his hand: "Brother, why can't I go? Maya is poisoned, what if she dies?"

"What the emperor fears the most is that the harem concubines have close contacts with the officials of the previous dynasty. Although the Guogong Mansion no longer holds any positions with real power in the court, the status of the Guogong Mansion in the court is still very important. If you go into the palace immediately at this time, what do you think the emperor will think?"

After listening to Song Hong's words, Xue Ning calmed down a little. If she enters the palace to see Maya now, the emperor will suspect that Maya and the Guogong Mansion have a close relationship, and from now on he will suspect Maya and the Guogong Mansion.

Xue Ning was carried away by Maya's poisoning, so he was so impulsive, and he didn't think about it at all: "But brother, I'm afraid that if I don't go, Maya will really die, what should I do?"

"You take it at home first, and I'll send someone to the palace gate to inquire about the news. Even if you're going, you can't be the first to go, and you can't go alone. ”

As long as he was not the first to go, the emperor would not find these people who came to visit Maya too abrupt, and therefore doubted the relationship between Maya and the Guogong Mansion.

After Xue Ning heard this, he also felt that what Song Hong said made sense, so he nodded and responded to his words: "Then brother will trouble you to find out the news of Maya, if there is news, please come and tell me immediately." ”

Seeing Xue Ning's anxious appearance, Song Hong nodded: "Don't worry, I will definitely inquire about these things, and I won't leave you with any regrets." You stay in peace, don't do anything, and wait for me to come back. ”
