Chapter 437: Conflict (2)
Yin Xiaohei was suddenly pointed, a little overwhelmed. However, when he saw the smiling expression on the prince's face, Yin Xiaohei also relaxed.
He pretended not to know and guessed a few names.
Song Yi saw that Xiao Hei always guessed inaccurately, and quickly lost interest, "Okay, I don't want you to guess either." Let me tell you directly, it's Xianglian who is back."
"What is she doing when she comes back?" The True King asked with a cold face.
Song Yi was stunned, but he didn't expect the other party to be so dissatisfied with Xianglian. So, coughed a few times in embarrassment.
Xiao Hei also saw that the atmosphere was not ordinary, and hurriedly found an excuse to retreat.
After Xiao Hei left, Song Yi said, "What's wrong with you?" Xianglian went back to Beijing to join her relatives, but her relatives had been away from Beijing for a long time, and she couldn't find them, so she had to come to me."
Song Yi explained, but the expression on the face of the true king Zhu Xi showed no signs of improvement.
Song Yi knew that the man was still haunted by Xianglian's betrayal back then, so he didn't dare to say his guess about Xianglian.
"A person who betrayed you, what are you doing with her?" The man's tone was not good.
Song Yi touched his nose and said embarrassedly: "It's been so many years. Besides, back then, Xianglian was also threatened and forced. I don't hate her anymore."
"You're so soft-hearted. In my experience, a person who betrays once betrays betrays a second time. You should be careful" The man did not agree with Song Yi's statement, thought about it, seemed to understand something, and said, "You won't leave her in the house, will you?" ”
"Huh?" Song Yi smiled awkwardly and whispered, "Her husband died in the plague in Bazhong, left his hometown, and had no relatives. Kneeling at the door of the True King's Mansion, what do you think I can do? Don't let her in, what will people say when they look at a person kneeling at the gate of the palace? ”
"Whatever they say, I don't care" The man doesn't think that there is anything important about being gossiped, so he can't understand the reason why women let Xianglian into the house in order not to be gossiped.
Song Yi looked at the man, his eyes were full of grievances, and he felt that he was thinking about him, but he didn't appreciate it, "Do you think I'm willing?" Don't I think that our husband and wife have been too prominent recently, and they will be remembered by those who have a heart? You also said that the crown prince and the second prince are staring at our mansion. The slightest mistake may be rendered into something ugly by their people. ”
"Although Xianglian was kicked out of the palace because she did something wrong, we didn't explain it to the outside world. She appeared out of nowhere, and whatever the purpose, we can't just watch her kneel in the doorway and ignore her. ”
The woman kept saying that for his sake, Zhu Xi also felt that her tone just now was not good, so she hurriedly coaxed, "I know." But I do so much just to make you and your children live happily and peacefully, and not to worry about the world. Are you worried that those gossips will bring me bad things? ”
"Then you don't trust your husband too much. Don't say it, they don't dare to touch me now. Even if you really do it, I can guarantee that your mother and son will be unharmed," the man said confidently.
Song Yi looked at the confident True King, without any doubts, and believed in the other party unconditionally.
However, the reason why she left Xianglian was not only for what she just said, but also to confirm whether Xianglian's return to Beijing this time was really as she said, just to find relatives? Is there really no other purpose behind the scenes?
Although Song Yi ostensibly didn't pay attention to her last poisoning, she knew that if she didn't catch someone who poisoned her for a day, she couldn't say that she was completely safe.
Song Yi also understands that the true king has now strengthened the security forces around her, and her own food is completely in charge of Chunxiang, and she doesn't fake it.
Although this can ensure Song Yi's safety, Song Yi also understands that this is not the best policy. And the real once and for all, it is still necessary to catch out the inner ghosts around you.
Song Yi was reluctant to casually doubt himself and the people around the real king, because he was afraid that the mastermind behind the scenes would be the one they didn't want to believe.
Therefore, Song Yi has always had an ostrich mentality, and he is not very active in cooperating with the investigation. But if you don't find the person who poisoned you, and you want to continue to track down the mastermind behind the scenes, there is no way to investigate. It's just stuck in an endless loop.
Song Yi also had a headache, and she was also afraid that if the people behind the scenes harmed Song Yi, would they turn to others. With this consideration, the appearance of Xianglian will make Song Yi feel that things have taken a turn for the better.
Xianglian's appearance actually didn't make Song Yi believe it from the beginning. The reason why she kept Xianglian was also to let Xianglian reveal her flaws.
Unexpectedly, this afternoon, Xianglian had already revealed her flaws. Song Yi felt that this might be an opportunity, if Xianglian was really arranged to enter the mansion, he could follow the vine and trace the person behind the scenes from Xianglian.
Even if the people behind the scenes who sent Xianglian into the mansion are not the same as the people behind the scenes who poisoned Song Yi in the early stage, they can still make an example of chickens and monkeys, and look good to those who still have the idea of the real palace.
Song Yi's true thoughts are so, but before she can say her true purpose, she was sprinkled with honey by a man.
Song Yi said very seriously: "I know that you will protect our mothers." But I don't want to be a burden to you, always holding you back. ”
Women have always demanded independence from outside, and Zhu Xi is not surprised. But he just felt that women were too harsh on themselves like this. After all, in this era, the constraints on women are still very serious. Zhu Xi is already very different from other men, and he has tried to give Song Yi more freedom. But even so, Zhu Xi can't guarantee that he doesn't have machismo at all.
"That's why you're going to do business on your own? Is it just to let everyone see what you're capable of? Zhu Xi said distressedly.
Song Yi nodded, "That's right, I know, I don't know martial arts, so I can't charge into battle like you men and kill the enemy." I am a woman, and I can't participate in the imperial examination and make meritorious contributions. I can only do business, make money, and I can bear some of it for you."
"You?"
"I know, what you're going to say. I also know that your ambitions don't stop there. In the past, you had a lot of scruples about not being able to do what you wanted to do wholeheartedly. Now, with me helping you, I don't dare to promise you anything else. However, you don't have to worry about money from now on. I have faith, give me ten years, no, give me five years, and I can make us financially free and no longer have to worry about money."
The true king looked at the woman in front of him, a little moved, he didn't say anything in front of her, but the woman could know that she was short of silver through some clues.
"Okay, I'll wait" The man didn't say much, just smiled sweetly.
