454. Scandal
Yao Keqing was still worried that it was too late, how to get rid of the second room as soon as possible, but something happened in Maozhou at this time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Although it is not a very close relative, but after all, it has not been served, according to the generation, Sister Qing, they should call him the old man his great grandfather, and besides, it is the old man Rui who has been rewarded by the imperial court, although this is a funeral, but it is a happy funeral, we should go!" Zhu took the red funeral sticker and reported to Yao Chongming.
Yao Chongming nodded, "Since my great-grandfather passed away, I, a junior, should also go to worship, and you can tell someone to pack some bags when you go back, so let's set off as soon as possible!"
Zhu Shi got the order and ordered to go down, and each courtyard packed its own luggage.
This great-grandfather is a side branch of the Yao family, he went out early, and he has no contact with the Changxiang Hou Mansion, if he hadn't lived long enough, he would have alarmed the court for a long time, but I am afraid that there are few people in the entire Yao family who know about his existence.
This time he died, and the people in the Changxiang Hou Mansion naturally didn't feel much of it, after all, he was a person he had never met, just an outsider who died, Duyao Kerou was very happy, because if she went back to Maozhou, she would be able to see her mother.
Yao Keqing also thought of this problem, this funeral is an opportunity for Xiao Miao's to return to everyone's attention, you must know that she announced to the public that she returned to her hometown to recuperate, and she should naturally come back when she recovers, but if she really appears in front of everyone when she goes back this time, she will clearly tell everyone that she has colluded with some people in the Yao family in Maozhou.
And Yao Kexin had no reason to stay in Beijing now, so she had to pack up her things and return to her hometown with the Yao family.
Yao Keqing wrote a letter to Song Ziqing on the eve of his departure to inform him of the incident, and set off without waiting for his reply.
Seeing Yao Chongming, Song Ziqing took the initiative to step forward to say hello, "Master Yao!" After all, he and Yao Keqing were engaged, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, Yao Chongming is still Yao Keqing's father.
"Where are you going?" Yao Chongming couldn't help but ask when he saw Song Ziqing and his party traveling lightly and in a hurry.
Song Ziqing arched his hand and said, "Send an elder back to his hometown!"
The ancestral home of the Song family is in Pingzhou, which is close to Maozhou, and this time the Yao family will pass by Pingzhou when they return to Maozhou.
Seeing that Song Ziqing and his party seemed to be in a hurry, Yao Chongming was not easy to invite his peers, so he only exchanged greetings and separated.
It was only on the first night of his arrival in Maozhou that Yao Keqing knew that Song Ziqing's trip was not to send any elders back to his hometown, but because of a family scandal, a scandal about the eldest princess's concubine.
Song Ziqing's expression was very vague in the dim night, but his tone was tired, " Years ago, the father suddenly picked up a baby who was only a full moon, saying that he wanted to adopt as a righteous son, although the mother was curious, but he didn't think much about it, just as the widow of the father's own soldiers, the father took pity on the adoption under his knees, so he didn't say much, and arranged for the nurse to wait, who knew that after the New Year, the house actually began to rumor that the child was the father's illegitimate son, the mother was shocked and questioned the father, but the father did not deny it, just let the mother ask, the father never revealed the child's biological mother, the mother was angry and drove the child out of the house with the person who served him!”
Speaking of this, Song Ziqing's expression was cold, and he said coldly, "But I don't know which good deed person sent someone to Pingzhou, and my father chased after him after hearing the news, and I chased after the third brother as well!"
The eldest princess has a very good reputation in Beijing, firstly, he is a general in Huaguo, defending the family and defending the country, and has outstanding achievements, and secondly, he and the eldest princess respect each other like a guest husband and wife, and there is no concubine room, which is a rare good man in Huaguo. But such a rare good man suddenly made such a big move, no wonder the eldest prince took the initiative to be angry.
As for the good deeds in Song Ziqing's mouth, they are probably just people who don't watch too much excitement, but they dare to break ground on the head of the eldest princess, who has such courage?
"What does the colt mean now...... What will you do in your clan?" The concubine dared to chase the child in the eldest princess's anger, this is an iron heart to recognize the child? Yao Keqing couldn't help but stroke her forehead, seeing that she was about to marry into the eldest princess's mansion, but such a bad thing happened.
Song Ziqing sighed, "Father bites to death and doesn't say the origin of this child, only that it is his mistake in a moment of confusion, and nothing else, if the father is just an ordinary identity, it is nothing to recognize this child, but the father is a concubine, it is a matter of royal face, the elders in the clan dare not respond to the father's request, and the father insists on giving this child a name, and now it is a stalemate!"
"That kid...... Is it really a colt?" Yao Keqing couldn't help but ask.
Song Ziqing shook his head, "It's hard to say, if you count it according to time, my father was indeed in Beijing during that time, but my father had never mentioned a little bit before, and it was really suspicious that such a child suddenly appeared this time!"
It's just that if the child is not a concubine, there is no need for the concubine to take the child back at the risk of offending the eldest princess and ruining his reputation, but I am afraid that the Song family will almost believe that the child is a concubine, but they dare not say it because of the eldest princess's face.
"Is there really no trace?" Yao Keqing thought for a moment and asked, "Where did the horse go before and after carrying the child back? Who did you see? And where did the child's clothes and accessories be bought? Is there a birthmark on the child? Have you checked these?"
Song Ziqing was stunned for a moment, and his originally chaotic thoughts suddenly had a direction again, "I only thought of starting from my father, but Jiang is still old and spicy, my father is my father after all, and I haven't found any useful information from him, but I didn't expect to be able to check it from that child!"
"That's it, the stitch style of the clothes, the style of the ornaments, these are all well-founded, and the horse is a general who holds military power, and he is not allowed to go out of Beijing without an order, so the child was born in Beijing, so the scope is much less, and according to the time of the child's birth, I should be able to ask for some useful information!"
It is no wonder that Song Ziqing looks so ugly, now the only way to stabilize the horse as soon as possible, bring the horse back to the capital quietly, and plan the rest slowly.
"Weiwei, thank you! You are so good to me!" Song Ziqing hugged Yao Keqing, buried his head in the shoulder socket, and sighed softly.
"You have told me such an important thing without reservation, you trust me so much, I will naturally treat you wholeheartedly!"
Hearing this, Song Ziqing hugged him tighter, but there was guilt in his expression and he was struggling in pain.
