When Wen Xiang and Tang Shaozong interjected, Song Nanzhou had already hurried back to Prince Cheng's mansion.

At this time, the sky was dark, and Prince Cheng's mansion was already brightly lit. It's just that the atmosphere in the house is very weird, and the people who are trembling want to bring joy on their faces, which looks weird and funny.

Song Nianbei stood at the Hanging Flower Gate with a white face and waited for him, and when he saw him, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with a smile: "Big brother, you are finally back." Grandpa Zhang has been waiting for a while, just waiting for you to come back to read the will. ”

At this time, no matter how big the family is, it is not as important as the affairs in the palace.

Song Nanzhou nodded and walked past him. After taking two steps, he stopped, and looked at Song Nianbei's face in the dim air and death wind lamp.

"What's wrong with your face?" Song Nanzhou asked lightly.

Song Nianbei turned his face a little embarrassed when he saw it, and his face was clearly imprinted with five finger prints.

"No, it's nothing......" Song Nianbei bit his lip, seeing that Song Nanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, and the corners of his lips seemed to be smiling but not smiling, his heart tightened, and he snorted and said, "It was my father who beat him." ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't say much, Song Nanzhou thought of Song Huanting's matter, and his heart was clear, and he didn't ask anymore, and stopped talking after "hmm".

Song Nianbei looked at the figure that was getting away angrily, and clenched his teeth tightly, that's it, it will always be like this! Although he was his younger brother, he never took him seriously!

Emperor Jing's favoritism, his father's partiality, and Song Nanzhou's attitude of always ignoring him really made him hate him!

One day!

Song Nianbei clenched his trembling fists and secretly swore in the shadow of longing that one day, he would trample Song Nanzhou under his feet!

Prince Cheng was talking to Gonggong Zhang in the main hall with a happy face, and Prince Cheng was also wearing a princess's uniform to accompany him.

Song Nanzhou looked at her first when he entered, although her face was a little sick and pale, but the whole person was still in her hands, she was the first person to see Song Nanzhou, and when she saw her, she hurriedly greeted her, pulled him to look at it, and said with concern: "But the horse came back?" Look at you sweating profusely, hurry up and go with me, the hot water is ready. Wash your face first and drink saliva. ”

Gonggong Zhang watched with a smile, secretly remembering Qiao's every move, hoping to communicate with Emperor Jing after returning to the palace.

Song Nanzhou habitually patted Qiao's arm in a reassuring manner, then turned to Gonggong Zhang, and arched his hand: "Let my father-in-law wait for a long time." ”

Father-in-law Zhang waved his hand and said, "The old slave has only arrived for a short time. The prince doesn't need to be in a hurry, this hot day, Wuxiang Camp is not close to Prince Cheng's mansion, the prince drinks saliva first, and is not in a hurry at this time. ”

Song Nanzhou nodded according to his words, and followed Qiao into the room next to him, without looking at Prince Cheng Yiyan from beginning to end.

Prince Cheng blew his beard angrily and glared, but in front of Father-in-law Zhang, it was not good to have a seizure, and he had to smile and said: "This kid doesn't learn the rules well, father-in-law, don't take it to heart." ”

Grandpa Zhang was still smiling: "The prince is really modest, even His Majesty praises the prince for being a pure child, which is commendable." It can be seen that the prince taught it well, but the rumors outside that are not listened to, the prince has heard it, and even His Majesty doesn't believe it, presumably the prince will not take it to heart and ask for trouble. ”

"Yes, yes, my father-in-law said yes." Prince Cheng laughed with him, and he nodded a little.

He knew very well in his heart that Prince Cheng's Mansion could still maintain the current situation, all thanks to the blessing of Song Nanzhou.

His feelings for Song Nanzhou's mother and son are too complicated and subtle, in terms of his heart, he doesn't like the original wife who is too rigid, she ignores his opposition and intimidation, and is righteous and awe-inspiring to go to rescue Emperor Jing, which makes him shrink back and be greedy for life and fear of death.

Unexpectedly, she really rescued Emperor Jing, but she died here. He stared at Emperor Jing in panic all day to settle accounts with him, but he didn't wait until the game between Emperor Jing and the Queen Mother, when the Queen Mother's party was crushed, and Emperor Jing finally summoned him.

This belated summons frightened his face, thinking that Emperor Jing was finally going to settle accounts with him, he knelt on the ground in a cold sweat, but Emperor Jing stared at him gloomily for a long time without making a sound. Later, Emperor Jing finally spoke, but said bluntly For the sake of the Da Qiao family, he would not touch Prince Cheng's mansion, nor would he touch him, but proposed to send the young Song Nanzhou to Jiuli Mountain - the master of Jiuli Mountain has a lot of connections with the Qiao family.

Emperor Jing's heavy warning that day was still in his ears: Song Nanzhou was safe and sound, and he inherited Prince Cheng's Mansion alive, and everyone in Prince Cheng's Mansion was naturally safe and sound, but Song Nanzhou had a bump, and it was all counted on Prince Cheng's Mansion.

This is also the reason why Song Nanzhou had an accident in Jiuli Mountain that year, and he was horrified and rushed away.

The rise and fall of Prince Cheng's Mansion is actually related to Song Nanzhou. It's not that he can't see the thoughts of Xiao Qiao's and his youngest son, after all, he is his own pillow person, even if Xiao Qiao's cover up well, his youngest son's qi cultivation kung fu has not arrived at home, he can only pretend not to know - the matter back then was too confidential and embarrassing, Prince Cheng did not dare to mention it to Xiao Qiao, although she pretended to inadvertently ask about Da Qiao's death countless times.

At this time, Father-in-law Zhang mentioned the rumors outside, which sounded like he was persuading him to relax, but how could he not hear the beating?

Emperor Jing was dissatisfied with the rumors outside, and already knew that the rumors were inseparable from Prince Cheng's mansion. This is what he means to take care of Xiao Qiao's and his youngest son.

"Your Majesty personally gave marriage to the prince, which is also the face of the prince." Father-in-law Zhang said with a smile again.

This is to remind him once again that the honor and disgrace of Prince Cheng's Mansion are tied to Song Nanzhou.

Prince Cheng's smile stiffened slightly, but fortunately, there was no one else in this main hall except him.

He felt a little better.

……

Qiao led Song Nanzhou to wash his face and wipe his hands, without pretending to be someone else's hand, like a real mother, and personally opened up for him.

"I didn't come back for some days, and I lost weight." Qiao Shi looked at Song Nanzhou, pinched his arm, and said distressedly.

Song Nanzhou wiped his face and cleaned his hands again, before he said with a smile: "Mother feels sorry for me before she says this, in fact, I eat a lot every day, and the food in the camp is not bad, you don't have to worry about me." ”

After a pause, he asked, "I heard from the people in the house that something seems to have happened at home?" ”

Qiao's eyes were red, and tears rolled down, "It's all my fault, I didn't take a good look at your sister's evil obstacle and let her do such a shameful thing." It's okay if she loses face, and I'm worried that this matter will affect you two brothers......"

Song Nanzhou looked like he didn't know anything, frowned and asked, "What happened to my sister?" Don't worry, take your time—"

As he spoke, he helped Qiao Shi to sit down.

Qiao Shi pressed the corner of his eyes with a handkerchief, as if it was difficult to speak, and sighed for a long time before he said what Song Huanting had done.

After finishing speaking, he cried again, scolding Song Huanting for being a bastard and ignorant of things, which ruined the reputation of the house.

"My sister is such a girl's family, how can she act like this?" Song Nanzhou frowned and said: "According to me, it must have been the instigation of the Diao slaves around her that made her sister, who has always been well-behaved and sensible, make a mistake." Don't worry, mother, son will go and dispose of those slaves. ”

"There's no rush to this." Qiao's family hurriedly grabbed Song Nanzhou, who was about to go out to dispose of the minions, "The most important thing right now is your sister." ”

"That's what Mother said." Song Nanzhou stopped his steps: "What do you mean?" ”

"At that time, Xu Fu tied up your sister and threw her back in the car, how many people ......saw it" Speaking of this, Qiao's hated it, hated Xu Shen for acting so relentlessly, and didn't give the slightest chance to turn around, but he couldn't go to the door to theorize, because it was himself who was responsible. This tone not only has to be suffered, but also has to think of ways to remedy it, and you can't have a bad relationship with Xu Shen.

Song Nanzhou frowned at the right time: "This Xu Shen, why is he so ruthless?" I'm going to ask him about it! ”

"It's our family's fault." Qiao's tears fell again, "Don't be impulsive. Azhou, you have a good relationship with Xu Xiang, can you see if there is room for redemption in this matter? ”

Song Nanzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked quietly: "How does my mother want to redeem it?" ”

Qiao Shi looked at him with teary eyes, stopped talking, sighed several times, and then said embarrassedly: "Now your sister's reputation has been completely ruined, although our family is a royal relative and noble, but she is a girl's family in the end." In the future, I'm afraid that it will be a little difficult. If...... If Xu Xianglu is willing to marry her, this matter will definitely be over. It's just that now, the Xu Mansion is closed, and I just want to come to the door to see Mrs. Xu and Xu Xiang, but they can't enter. I think you're good friends with Xu, see if you can ......"

Although the words were not spoken, the meaning was expressed very clearly, this is the meaning of asking Song Nanzhou to make peace.

After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Nanzhou with blank eyes.

Song Nanzhou looked at this face, a face not far from his own mother. He had been warmed and comforted here, and he knew that her concern was actually extraordinary, but in the end, her methods did not really hurt him anything, and she was merciful to him.

He had also thought that as long as it was like this, she cared about him and loved him in the name of his mother, even if it was fake, he could take it as real. He would repay her and nurture her for the rest of her life—if she could stay that way.

"I'll find an opportunity to discuss with Xu Xiang." Finally, Song Nanzhou said.

Qiao Shi immediately smiled with tears in his eyes, stroked his arm and said, "Good boy." For your sister, now I can only embarrass you. ”

"It's just that my mother shouldn't have too much hope, Xu Xiang looks gentle and approachable, but he is very tough inside, otherwise he wouldn't have done such a sparing thing." Song Nanzhou said in front, "Mother still has to think about it, if Xu Xiang refuses to marry his sister, how to arrange it later." ”

Qiao Shi smiled reluctantly and said tentatively: "If you can ask Your Majesty to marry them, I think this is also a very shameful thing." ”

Song Nanzhou didn't know whether to laugh or be angry for a while, but he didn't expect Qiao's to think of such a trick.

"Mother also knows that the imperial uncle is very trustworthy to Xu Xiang, that is, I begged the imperial uncle, and the imperial uncle will definitely ask Xu Xiang's meaning first, and will not do anything messy with my mind." This is to tell Qiao's that she used the road of marriage to force Xu Shen to marry Song Huanting, she still didn't think about it.

Qiao's expression darkened, "No matter what, you talk to Xu Xiang first." Our family Huanting did something wrong, but it was also because of admiration for him, it was not good to ruin Huanting's life like this. ”

Song Nanzhou nodded in response: "I will have a good talk with Xu Xiang." ”

This is not perfunctory, he does want to have a good talk with Xu Shen, but what they want to talk about is not Song Huanting, but Wen Xiang.

……

When Song Nanzhou and Qiao's came over, Song Nianbei didn't know when he arrived, except for Song Huanting who was sick, the family had arrived.

When Prince Cheng learned that the Marquis of Jian'an's Mansion took the initiative to send a matchmaker to kiss, he endured his fear of Emperor Jing and entered the palace to invite Emperor Jing.

He himself felt very shameless, but he couldn't do anything about his son's marriage.

But what can be done, not only can he not be dissatisfied, but he also has to be grateful to Emperor Jing for this.

Emperor Jing was obviously very satisfied with this family affair, and after he finished his speech, he nodded with a smile, signaling that Prince Cheng's mansion was ready to start the happy event.

It's just that I didn't expect the marriage decree to come so soon.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Prince Cheng was about to beckon everyone to kneel down to receive the decree, when Song Nanzhou went to pull Gonggong Zhang aside.

"If the prince has anything to say, it's not too late to wait for the old slave to read out the holy decree."

"What is in the hands of my father-in-law is indeed a decree for marriage?" Song Nanzhou asked.

Father-in-law Zhang smiled and said: "The prince doesn't have to be anxious, the old slave will congratulate the prince on his good fortune in a while......"

"My father-in-law misunderstood." Song Nanzhou interrupted him, his expression was not happy, but very solemn: "I have to bother my father-in-law to bring this holy decree back, I can't accept this will!" ”

Father-in-law Zhang was taken aback, and the smile on his face couldn't be contained: "Lord Shizi, what do you mean by this?" ”

"I have already told the imperial uncle before, I don't want to marry the seventh girl of the Jian'an Hou Mansion - if the imperial uncle's will is still this, the father-in-law does not need to read it."

Gonggong Zhang hurriedly persuaded and said: "Shiziye, you should know that Your Majesty has been very optimistic about rebuilding Anhou Mansion in the past two years, and the seven girls who built Anhou Mansion are also famous, and His Majesty is very optimistic about this family business, and when he issued the will, he also talked to the slaves, and it was a blessing for the prince to marry Qin Qiyu. You're so ......."

"Father-in-law doesn't need to persuade me, I will personally go to the imperial uncle to ask for guilt. If not, my father-in-law will let me go for a while, and I will talk to the house, and then I will go into the palace with my father-in-law? Song Nanzhou has always been very calm, but his calm face is unquestionably firm.

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Gonggong Zhang sighed several times: "Lord Shizi, please, the old slave is waiting outside." ”

With that, he shook his head in regret and went outside.

……

Prince Cheng and the others saw that Gonggong Zhang left without reading out the will, and they were all confused, and Qi Qi looked at Song Nanzhou.

"What's going on?" As soon as Gonggong Zhang left, Prince Cheng asked sharply.

Song Nanzhou said lightly: "I don't want this family matter, I will enter the palace with Gonggong Zhang in a while, and personally ask the imperial uncle for guilt." ”

"Bastard thing!" Prince Cheng trembled angrily, his eyes widened angrily, and he glared at Song Nanzhou: "This is a family affair given by the emperor, or the seven girls of the Marquis of Jian'an, it is a good thing that others can't ask for." It's good for you, touch your lips up and down, and don't want to say no-who gave you the courage to dare to do such a thing without a king and a father in your eyes! ”

He plucked up the courage to use this incident to show favor to Emperor Jing, and successfully asked for the marriage decree, but he didn't expect to be ruined by this evil obstacle when he came to the door!

What would Emperor Jing think of him? He must have felt that he, as a father, was not dutiful, and he didn't even know who his son wanted to marry, so he ran to ask for a marriage decree, and he also made Emperor Jing who made the decree unable to get off the stage - thinking of Emperor Jing's gloomy look, Prince Cheng felt a cold back.

He stared at Song Nanzhou's eyes with red eyes, and he really hated that he couldn't ask the monk to punish him severely.

Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng also frowned and said, "Azhou, this family matter was asked for by your father when he entered the palace early in the morning. The seven girls of Jian'an Hou's Mansion, no matter how many people want to marry back, it is illegal, ...... What the hell do you think? But you know that refusing to accept the holy decree is a great sin of disrespect! ”

The worry and concern in her eyes were genuine, and they didn't seem to be fake at all.

Song Nanzhou thought for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "Mother don't worry, I will tell in front of Your Majesty." Grandpa Zhang is still waiting for me outside, so I will follow him into the palace. Just a few words before entering the palace-"

Only then did he glance at Prince Cheng, who was about to split, and his tone became a little lighter: "I have my own plans for my family affairs, and my mother doesn't have to worry about me." When I have someone I want to marry, I will tell my mother about it, and it will not be too late to do it again. ”

"Marriage events have been the words of the matchmaker since ancient times!" Prince Cheng said angrily: "Now that there is a king's order, you, you are so ......"

"Is it a big rebellion?" Song Nanzhou said: "This is not the first big rebellion I have done, and my father is not used to it?" ”

"You kid, how did you talk to your father?" Qiao Shi hurriedly stepped forward to play a round game, "What your father said is right, this is not only the order of your parents, but also the meaning of Your Majesty, if you do this, how can Your Majesty not blame?" Azhou, even if you have a girl you like, after marrying Miss Qin Qi and entering the door, you can also bring that girl into the door, wouldn't it be better if the wife and concubine are harmonious? ”

"yes, big brother." Song Nianbei's mood was quite complicated, both shocked Song Nanzhou, who dared to resist the decree, and he was also happy that this family business could not be completed. But thinking about how useless Miss Qin Qi was, Song Nanzhou refused to marry - this is like a good thing that he can't reach no matter what, his eyes are red, but the other party can not only get it easily, but also treat it as if it were a piece of, and he feels very bad in his heart - he can't even marry someone who Song Nanzhou regards as a!

This kind of strong gap, how can he feel good in his heart?

"Don't make trouble, don't let your father and mother worry about you, there are still a lot of things in this family, and you have to worry about your father and mother."

Song Nanzhou looked like "I have made up my mind", and said lightly: "I am still in a hurry to enter the palace to face the saint, and the second brother is at home to persuade my mother." ”

He said to Qiao's again: "I will go to Xu's Mansion when I leave the palace in a while, and there will be news as soon as possible." ”

Qiao Shi thought of his daughter, and he didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly responded: "Then you go quickly, be careful." ”

Yin Yin advised, and then let Song Nanzhou go.

……

Gonggong Zhang also persuaded Song Nanzhou all the way, but Song Nanzhou refused to change his words until he entered the palace, Gonggong Zhang led Song Nanzhou, and said it again with trepidation.

Emperor Jing's face sank like water, and he looked at Song Nanzhou, who was kneeling below—it was rare for him to kneel so honestly and respectfully like now.

After waving his hand to order Gonggong Zhang to go out, Emperor Jing asked in a deep voice: "Where are the seven girls of Jian'an Houfu not worthy of you?" ”

"My nephew is self-aware, but I am not worthy of others." Song Nanzhou didn't play tricks like before, and replied honestly: "I told you before, I went over the wall to Jian'an Hou Mansion to see the seven girls, she is beautiful, but I can't be happy when I see her." What is the point of marrying someone I don't like? ”

Emperor Jing frowned, "You said before that you didn't want to marry her, but it really didn't work?" ”

Song Nanzhou knocked his head and said aggrievedly: "Why did my nephew tell a lie in front of you?" If I want to marry a wife, I will definitely marry someone I like, so that when I am married, I can live happily. Do you think I have any truth in what I said? ”

Emperor Jing was speechless by him, and after a while, he snorted and said: "Famous ladies are all raised in the boudoir, if you want to meet a girl you like, isn't it a fool's dream?" Where are you going? Could it be that it's the same as this time, flipping into other people's homes and looking at each other one by one in an unruly manner? was caught, a good fight is still light, your reputation has finally improved, but I'm afraid it will stink again! ”

"What did Uncle Huang say, how could I do such a thing again to disgrace your face?" Song Nanzhou lay on the ground, and his voice came from the ground, looking angry, "I can't say that in two days, I will come to ask the emperor's uncle to marry me." Uncle Huang, don't worry, let me be allowed for a while. ”

"Alright, you give me a deadline." Emperor Jing glared at him for a long time, and in the end he was not willing to punish him for the crime of resisting the decree, and after closing his eyes, he resorted to a gentle strategy: "You must know that you are already twenty years old, King Jin is about the same size as you, and the princesses and concubines in his mansion have already been completed!" When you look at it, you don't blush? ”

Song Nanzhou shook his head: "Don't be red." ”

After a pause, he assured in Emperor Jing's toothache-like gasp: "Uncle Huang, don't worry, before this year, I will definitely ask you to be the Lord for marriage!" ”

Emperor Jing endured it: "Okay, I'll wait." I'd like to see what kind of girl can make you happy—I can warn you, don't even think about those who come from Qinglou and Tile Courtyard! ”

Without waiting for Song Nanzhou to reply, Emperor Jing remembered again, and the blue tendons on his forehead jumped twice: "Men can't do it either!" ”

Song Nanzhou couldn't cry or laugh: "Uncle Huang, where do you want to go?" You can rest assured, Yi'er is a woman from a good family, and she will never be a messy person! ”

He seriously assured that although Emperor Jing was skeptical, he didn't say anything more. Instead, he asked, "Your sister's matter, is there a charter in the palace?" ”

"I really can't hide anything from your old man's eyes and ears." Song Nanzhou slapped his ass on the back, knowing that he had passed this level, and his heart fell back steadily, "Wan Ting has a bad reputation, I'm afraid it's not easy to marry in Kyoto." The family still wants to make peace with Xu Fu, no, knowing that I have a little friendship with Xu Xiang, they handed over this task to me. I was planning to talk to Xu Xiang when I left the palace to see if there was any possibility of getting married. ”

In this way, it can be regarded as having passed the door here in Emperor Jing.

When Emperor Jing heard this, he shook his head: "I'm afraid you're going to run for nothing." ”

Song Nanzhou had a bitter face: "Huanting is my sister in the end, and I don't care about her, even if I run for nothing, I have to give it a try." ”

Emperor Jing waved his hand and said, "It's not early, hurry up." ”
