The day after Xu Shu came back, the people of the Song family came to the door, it was the second master of Song and his wife, and in connection with Xu Hui's pause yesterday, Xu Shu was almost certain that something must have happened to the Song family, she had only been away from Beijing for a month, how much had happened?

Xu Shu rubbed her forehead, a little unwilling to inquire, and was about to ignore her heart, Xuexiang suddenly called Xu Shu, saying that the Li family had something to look for her, "Madame has something to find Miss Nine, Miss Nine will go with the slave!" ”

Fuliu grabbed Xuexiang and asked, "Madame, what's the matter with Miss?" Didn't Second Mrs. Song come? How did Madame get to see Miss in the air? ”

Xue Xiang poked Liu and pointed at her, "You little girl still dare to question me, and I dare to lie to Miss Nine?" It's really Madame looking for Miss Nine! ”

Whisk willow pouted, "Miss is making incense, don't let me disturb!" ”

Xue Xiang was anxious, "Madame explained, this is a hundred thousand urgent matters, and the other things will be put on hold first!" ”

Fuliu didn't want to disturb Xu Shu, Xuexiang was anxious and was about to pinch her, but Xu Shu suddenly pushed open the door of the inner room, "I'll change my clothes and go with you!" ”

As Xu Shu expected, she really "saw" the second lady of Song Zhou at Li's place, but today's Zhou seems to be ten years older, of course, Xu Shu can't see it, she can only infer from Zhou's uneasy and anxious voice that her face must be more terrified.

"The Empress Dowager's niece is going to enter the palace to celebrate her birthday?" As soon as he saw Xu Shu, Zhou couldn't wait to ask.

Xu Shu nodded yes, and Li said on the side, "The last time I entered the palace, the Empress Dowager asked Sister Shu to go!" ”

Li said that he was honored, but there was a trace of inscrutable jealousy, after all, as a mother, she did not have the qualifications to enter the palace to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager.

Zhou barely squeezed out a smile, "The virtuous niece is generous and courteous, and she is even favored by the Empress Dowager, and she is also a person who can speak in front of the Empress Dowager!" ”

Talking!

These words have a deep meaning, Xu Shu couldn't help but look in the direction of Zhou, through the black cloth belt, and also wanted to see Zhou's innermost thoughts.

Li glanced at Zhou, and then turned his head, obviously looking like he had nothing to do with himself, Zhou had no choice but to bite the bullet and opened his mouth, "The Empress Dowager is a birthday this year, and the emperor is going to hold a feast, I don't know if the virtuous niece can prepare a birthday gift?" If not, I've got two more things I can get my hands on! ”

Today's Zhou is particularly enthusiastic, with apprehension and eagerness in her enthusiasm, completely ignoring her previous pride and eyes.

"Thank you, madam, it's just that the master has already prepared it for me!" Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! Xu Shu politely declined Zhou's kindness.

There was a crack in Zhou's enthusiasm on his face, and he looked at Li, but Li didn't help, Zhou's face gradually turned cold and stopped talking, even if she asked for help, she couldn't hang people like this, what was the great thing about the Xu family? If it weren't for a Xu Shu, she didn't even look at the Xu family in the past, which round would have the Xu family put on a score in front of her!

After a moment of silence, Xu Shu spoke, "Xuexiang said that my mother is looking for me in an emergency?" ”

"Ah...... It's something! Li looked at Zhou again, Zhou lowered his eyebrows and didn't answer, Li was dissatisfied, so he heard Xu Shu ask again, "Since it's urgent, mother will say it quickly!" Don't delay! ”

Li Shi turned his heart and pushed the matter on Zhou's family, "It's Second Mrs. Song who has something to find you!" ”

This next week, the Zhou family had to speak, but this is good, although it is embarrassing, it is better than being embarrassed, "That's the case, I heard that the Empress Dowager promised that her niece could bring another person into the palace, but is there such a thing?" ”

Xu Shu nodded, and the Zhou family finally gritted his teeth and said his purpose, "If the virtuous niece doesn't dislike it, can you take me there?" ”

Xu Shu was really surprised at this time, with the official position of the loyal and brave uncle and the second master of Song, the Zhou family should be one of the foreign women who entered the palace to congratulate, why did he come to bring her into the palace by himself at this moment?

Xu Shu was surprised, and Li coughed lightly, "Sister Shu, you don't have anyone else to bring, with Second Mrs. Song accompanying you, I can rest assured that I am my mother!" ”

Li signaled Xu Shu to agree, and Xu Shu responded, "Okay!" ”

Zhou took a long breath, as if he had unloaded a big stone, and the whole person relaxed, but he only relaxed for a moment before he hurriedly got up and said goodbye, Li wanted to keep her, "Lord Song is still discussing things with the master, Madame will sit for a while!" ”

Zhou didn't stay for a moment, "I'll urge my master!" With that, he left.

After the Zhou family walked away, the Li family said to Xu Shu, "On the birthday of the Empress Dowager, if you and Second Lady Song enter the palace and she wants to find someone, don't stop you, just go and do your job!" ”

Li's words can be regarded as the ultimate goal of Zhou's request, but Xu Shu still doesn't understand why Zhou can't enter the palace by himself, but wants to beg her? Only people who are not qualified will think of other methods, but the Zhou family should obviously have this qualification, could it be that something happened to the Song family?

"Did something happen to the Song family?" Xu Shu asked.

Li Shi paused for a moment and replied cryptically, "I heard your father say that Uncle Zhong Yong was involved in a case, and Second Master Song was also suspended!" ”

No wonder! Second Mrs. Song was suspended, and Second Mrs. Song naturally lost her qualification to enter the palace, so she came to beg herself, Second Mrs. Song entered the palace to find someone to intercede and dredge up the relationship, but who is the person she is looking for?

"Will that affect our family's engagement?" Xu Shu asked again.

Li's expression darkened, and he sighed, full of remorse, "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen to the Song family at the beginning, I knew that I shouldn't have agreed so easily!" ”

Li's tone was full of regret for making a marriage contract with the Song family, as if he had forgotten the desire of the Song family when they made a marriage contract.

"Since it has nothing to do with Second Master Song, it must be fine!" Xu Shu said comforting words that didn't hurt or even she didn't believe it, since Second Master Song was suspended, at least it showed that he himself was also at fault in this matter, but he had not yet been convicted, probably because he was still collecting evidence.

Li's expression was not relaxed because of this, but even more preoccupied, obviously not believing Xu Shu's words of comfort, but he couldn't help but hope that it could really be so, "I hope it's ......"

If something happens to the Song family, the marriage contract that has been made between the two families cannot be annulled, and her sister Ting can only marry into the Song family. Is her sister Ting's life going to be ruined by the fallen Song family?

No! No! There must be another way!

In a panic, Li's eyes fell on Xu Shu, and the flame of hope gradually ignited.
