Mu Xiang chuckled lightly and said, "If you fancy the meaning of the young master, as long as you bite to death today's incident is an accident, the young master will be angry again, and there is nothing you can do with the girl." What else can the Ruan family do, they won't force the girl to quit their family, right? A small accident is far from the point of retiring from relatives. ”

Ji Tianjiao listened silently, but saw that Mu Xiang no longer continued, bit his lip and said, "If it is...... What about the other one? ”

Mu Xiang saw that Ji Tianjiao finally showed his fox tail, and indirectly admitted that it was Hong Yan who he cared about, so he lowered his voice and said: "If the girl cares about Hong Gongzi's meaning, then the young master will lose her temper and ask later, and the girl just needs to grit her teeth and be silent." ”

"Silent?" Ji Tianjiao pondered for a long time the meaning of 'silent' and understood the meaning.

If Ruan Ning comes to question, whether she is suspicious or angry, she must listen to her explanation, and if she explains clearly, everything will be like yesterday. If the explanation is not clear, Ruan Ning is likely to take this opportunity to break off the marriage.

No matter what the outcome is, Ji Tianjiao is not sure what she wants, she hasn't thought about it yet.

She has a heart for Hong Yan, but this matter is still unknown. But in any case, Nguyen Ninh is a way out. Besides, if she is divorced by the Ruan family, she will only be embarrassed. Therefore, as long as she was silent and didn't explain, Ruan Ning couldn't figure out what she meant. simply dragged on for a while, let her find a better way out, even if it wasn't Hong Yan.

Guogong Mansion.

Song Yuning accompanied the Li family to eat, and Rin Qiu hurriedly made tea, seeing that the food on the table was almost untouched, the two of them sat silently and absentmindedly, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they hurriedly retreated again.

There were only two mother and son left in the house, and Li Shi said uneasily: "Your father has been gone for two hours, and it will be dark now, why is there no movement at all?" I want to see ......."

Song Yuning hurriedly grabbed her mother who got up and said, "I heard that my father went to the Evergreen Pavilion for a while, and the eldest uncle rushed back from outside the house, and then he went to wait outside the Evergreen Pavilion with the eldest aunt, and the eldest sister also went. No matter what the reason for them to pass, it can be said that they are worried that something has happened to their father, but no matter who goes, their mother can't go. ”

Li sat down stiffly and said, "Yes, I can't go." The people in the big house may not have figured out the situation at this time, and if I go, I'm afraid I'll guess something. Besides, your grandmother has always been unkind to me......"

Back then, Song Yan disobeyed the will of Mrs. Song and married the Li family, and later there was an incident with Song Zhan, and the couple was completely beaten into the cold palace of the Song family.

So. No matter what Song Yan said to Mrs. Song, or what he said, the other party must be in a rage, and if he goes to another obstructive one, it may add fuel to the fire. At that time, whether Song Yan can be forgiven or not is still a matter of two words, maybe he will have to take another one. So, no matter what, the Lee family can't go over.

Song Yuning thought for a while and said, "Although my mother can't go, I can, I will always be vigilant, and if anything happens, I will let people come back and inform you." ”

Song Yuning was uneasy in her heart, but she still used the tea steadily, added a thick big wool cloak, and took Rin Qiu and Midsummer to the Evergreen Pavilion.

There was a dead silence in the Evergreen Pavilion, not even a cough, and the eldest lady walked restlessly back and forth under the corridor, as if trying to make herself look calmer, but in vain. And Song Ji looked at the deeper and deeper sky with his hands behind his back, and stood without saying a word. There were still maidservants and women standing far away, and they all seemed to feel that the atmosphere was unusual, and they shrank their heads and did not dare to make too many movements.

Only Song Yuheng leaned against the pillars with a natural expression, looking at the occasional falling snow on the eaves, which was no different from her on weekdays.

Song Yuning pursed her lips tightly, yes, the future queen of the Middle Palace, what is she afraid of? She is about to become the second woman of the Song family to enter the palace and take power to support the Song family. Instead, she thought of Ji Erlan.

If Ji Erlan is really the daughter of the third uncle Song Zhan, then Ji Erlan and Song Yuheng, who will win and lose in the end?

She walked in slowly, obediently greeting everyone, breaking the suffocating silence. As soon as Song Yuheng saw her coming, he immediately laughed softly: "Why are you here?" It's so cold, you're still young, be careful of freezing sick. As he spoke, he touched her hand stove and said, "The charcoal fire in your hand stove is going to be cold all the way, take mine first, and let Rin Qiu go and change the charcoal." ”

Song Yuning did not shirk it, took advantage of the situation to hold her hand stove in her hand, and thanked: "Thank you, big sister." ”

Song Yuheng saw that she was not different, and asked softly, "Ah Ning, I don't know what happened to the second uncle?" ”

Song Yuning's drooping eyes didn't even dare to show sarcasm, and slowly raised his head, his eyes clear and puzzled: "I still want to ask the eldest sister, it turns out that the eldest sister doesn't know?" ”

Song Yuheng carefully looked at her face for a moment, as if he was sure that she really didn't know, and then shook his head. Asked: "The second aunt didn't come?" ”

Song Yuning smiled bitterly: "Mother didn't even dare to say anything in front of my grandmother, so she only asked me to come and see what happened." Go back and tell me again. ”

Song Yuheng didn't ask her anymore when he heard this, and turned his face to the inner hall where the door was closed. The light from inside peeked through the door, casting shadows on the panicked faces of the people, but nothing could be heard.

They are all people who know the facts of the year, but they have different thoughts in their hearts. Song Yuning desperately hoped that Song Yan would be able to get her grandmother's forgiveness after telling the truth. And she didn't know what the people in the big house were thinking. Song Yuning felt that even if her father said that the person who came up with the idea back then was the eldest uncle, the eldest uncle would not be affected too much, so what did they care about when they paid so much attention to their father's actions?

Inside, Mrs. Song stared at the decadent and emaciated second son in front of her, and could hardly hide the churning in her heart.

The remorse on Song Yan's face made him look like a crumpled piece of paper, and the words he said turned into a magic sound, sending the third son whom Old Madam Song loved and valued the most to Huangquan Road.

Indeed, she shouldn't have put Song Zhan's death on Song Yan's body, but after that incident happened back then, what she had in front of her was not only the dead son, but also the Song family that almost collapsed.

Song Yan almost didn't dare to raise his head, tears kept washing his face, but it was difficult to resolve his complicated mood at this time. He said: "When my son arrived, the third brother's body was still hot...... It's just that his body has been separated, and he has no power to return to heaven...... "broken carriage, hot blood, dearest brother...... That scene kept him awake day and night, even if he was drunk and asleep, the situation was always haunted in his dreams and refused to disperse.

Old Madam Song gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice: "When you killed people to cover up the truth, did you really think I didn't know?" ”

Song Yan looked up sharply and looked at his mother in shock. "Mother...... Know? ”

Old Madam Song's eyes reflected Song Yan's face and said, "Yan'er, you still don't know where I am disappointed in you. ”

Song Yanne was speechless, and Mrs. Song said, "What kind of family is the Song family?" What kind of fool do you think of your mother and me? When did you leave the city on the day of the accident, and what did you do before you left the city, do you think I really can't find out? Originally, Zhan'er's death was not your fault, maybe you also escaped because of this, you are all my sons, you can survive, mother should feel lucky. But you shouldn't have ...... I did what came after. Where has your deceit put me? Where did you leave your third brother? You are so selfish! ”

Song Yan never thought that he had not been able to get his mother's forgiveness for so many years, and it was all his own doing...... "Mother, my son is deeply sinful, his hands are full of blood, I dare not ask for your forgiveness, I hope to have a glimmer of life, and I can find the descendants of the third brother to comfort the third brother's soul in heaven and relieve the mother's grievances......"

Song Yan had been kneeling on the cold and hard ground for more than two hours, his knees were almost unconscious, but even so, he still didn't dare to relax, prostrate there, and repent deeply.

Old Madam Song's nose fluttered, and she exhaled a deep breath of turbidity, she closed her eyes tightly, and opened them again, but her eyes did not fall on Song Yan. She looked at a small box on the shelf, which contained a letter sent back by Song Zhan when he was out on a trip. Those yellowed papers and handsome handwriting all show the vivid and bright future of this Song Zhan.

She turned her gaze to the scripture book in her hand, which contained the last letter written by Song Zhan.

She had read the contents of the letter countless times, and could remember the shape and outline of almost every handwriting. But she never told anyone what it was saying. She picked up the letter and signaled to Song Yan, Song Yan was stunned for a moment, and quickly got up to pick it up, but fell heavily because of the long kneeling, and hit his head on the corner of the table beside him, and blood suddenly gushed out.

Song Yan ignored it, and didn't see the distress that flashed in Old Madam Song's eyes, and hurriedly struggled to get up to pick up the letter.

The familiar handwriting and tone made Song Yan's heart hurt even more. He trembled and read the letter from beginning to end, read it again, read it again, and then looked up at Old Madam Song in astonishment: "Third brother, he ...... Is he in the middle? ”

Old Madam Song's already cloudy and yellowed eyes seemed to be beating something. opened his mouth and said: "This letter sent by Zhan'er, after I read it, I was also shocked and couldn't help myself, as the most valued heir of the Song family, as the future head of the family who had high hopes, he actually ...... made a son-in-law. ”

As if it was difficult to speak, the last sentence of Mrs. Song was extremely difficult. It seems that Song Zhan's behavior is even more unacceptable than his death.

Song Yan also couldn't believe it, even if Song Zhan didn't tell his family, he felt that it was barely acceptable to take a concubine or even marry a wife outside, however, he was ......
