Chapter 273: Intimidation
Mrs. Song looked at Song Yao threateningly, with a strong sense of calculation in her eyes.
Now that she has torn her face, Mrs. Song no longer pretends to be a loving mother, and her hatred is undisguised.
"That can only mean that you can't teach Madam, so Song Yuyao has learned the rules for many years, and she just learned to save face, and she can't go deep into the bone marrow, but she forgets it completely because of amnesia."
Song Yao sneered:
"Madame, you'd better save yourself on these little tricks. Not to mention that my father will be unhappy, it is such a big thing as my father taking me back to the house, and my wife, as the head of the house, said that she did not know, and I am afraid that no one will believe it. But Mrs. has always been a virtuous person, why did she not show up for several days when her stepdaughter returned? ”
Of course, the lady can also be said to be happy to be sick, or to bow down in front of the Buddha and make a vow. But isn't there even a girl in this treasure garden? If Madame really doesn't care about fame, then let's have a good time and see who has the most losses. ”
Mrs. Song's face was pale, she never expected that Song Yao would not care about the reputation of the old mansion.
Seeing this, Song Yao said with a smile: "My good stepmother, although there is no evidence of those things back then, everyone knows it. Your reputation for so many years of painstaking management is ruined, so I don't mind playing with you a little bit of backhouse selfishness. ”
"I don't understand what you're saying!" Mrs. Song had a moment of panic in her eyes, clasped her hands in her sleeves, and said coldly: "If you insist on this attitude, I have to talk to the master, the daughter of the old mansion doesn't even understand the minimum rules and filial piety, I don't know what the clan will think." ”
When Mrs. Song said this, a look of pride flashed in her eyes, and there was a sense of revenge.
Obviously, Madame Song was already planning to do this.
"You can do it, I even brought my son back, and I still care about this reputation?" Song Yao didn't laugh angrily, strolled to Mrs. Song, looked at Mrs. Song who was bruised right now, and sighed: "It can be seen that Mrs. was also a beauty when she was young, although she was less than one ten-thousandth of my mother, but she could barely see it." ”
Mrs. Song's biggest pain is Song Gelao's unrepentant affection for the original wife.
At this moment, Song Yao compared the two and belittled Mrs. Song for nothing, and suddenly became murderous.
Seeing that Mrs. Song pulled out the golden hairpin and wanted to stab at Song Yao, Cha Xing picked up a stone in the flower pot and hit Mrs. Song's wrist.
"Ahh Mrs. Song screamed in pain, and the golden hairpin fell to the ground.
Song Yao bent down to pick up the golden hairpin, played with it in his hand, and sneered: "This can't hold my breath, it's not easy to tolerate me for so many years, and you haven't gone crazy yet." But ......"
Song Yao paused for a moment, and asked deceptively: "You haven't even given birth to a child in your life, and you can't be considered a complete woman, how about I fulfill you?" ”
Mrs. Song's body stiffened, she would not think that Song Yao wanted to fulfill her mind and give birth to Song Ge's old child.
"You dare!" Mrs. Song gritted her teeth and said, "Song Yuyao, if you dare to do that to me, you are slapping your father in the face, don't forget that I am Mrs. Song!" ”
"You don't deserve it." Pinching Mrs. Song's chin and putting the golden hairpin back on her, Song Yao sneered: "Don't worry, you will not be Mrs. Song soon." When the time comes, it has nothing to do with my father, I just don't know if your mother's family can tolerate you. ”
Covering her lips and chuckling, Song Yao turned around and said, "This place is too dirty, it's better to come less in the future, so as not to wash it and not be able to wash off those dirt." ”
Song Yao's master and servant left, but Mrs. Song's face became more and more gloomy.
originally wanted to get rid of Song Yao, but when she heard her words at this moment, Mrs. Song couldn't wait to make a move, she definitely couldn't wait for Song Yao to make the first move.
The maids waiting at the door all lowered their heads, and they didn't know if they could hear the conversation between the two clearly.
To Song Yao's surprise, although Mrs. Song wanted to kill her, she actually calmed down and didn't make a move, which was also in line with Song Yao's wishes.
The queen's birthday is imminent, if there are some bad rumors in the old mansion, maybe the old Song Pavilion will be impeached by the imperial history.
Since Song Yao has returned as Song Yuyao, she will not do anything unfavorable to the old man's mansion, especially Song Ge Lao's fatherly heart, she must consider the other party.
After spending a few days peacefully in the old mansion, Song Yao rarely focused on the joy of family affection, and completely let go of business matters.
"Tomorrow is the palace banquet, and the slave is afraid that one person will not be able to deal with it, but she will call back month by month?" Star Chakra asked.
Chasing stars and moons are the people arranged by Helian Sheng, so they naturally know what will happen tomorrow, and their task is to ensure Song Yao's safety.
"Forget it, it's just a palace banquet, that girl is injured, let her live and raise, so as not to fall ill in the future." Song Yao shook his head.
Looking through the mirror, seeing Zhuxing frowning slightly, Song Yao sensed that something was wrong.
"Chaser the stars, but what news is there from your master?" Song Yao asked.
"Tomorrow's palace banquet is not simple." didn't want Song Yao to worry, so Chaxing didn't tell the truth, but he also revealed one or two, so that Song Yao could be prepared.
Song Yao's face froze, and she believed that chasing stars would not be untargeted.
But Helian Sheng knew that she would enter the palace for a banquet, but he didn't tell the truth, did he not believe her ability, or did he think she would not be able to bear it?
Song Yao was in a complicated mood, lowered her eyes slightly, but stopped asking.
Red Sleeves came out of the inner room at this time, put a set of aqua blue chiffon skirts on the screen, came to the dresser with a smile, took over the work of chasing stars, and combed Song Yao's long hair.
"Tomorrow is the queen's birthday, even if the lady is not dressed for the festivities, she can't be as elegant as in the past, this time I can't tolerate the displeasure of the lady." Redsleeves said softly.
Song Yao has always disliked complicated dresses, even if there are important occasions, she has to spend some time on red sleeves to barely be strong.
But the palace banquet is no different from other banquets, and it is not appropriate to come casually.
"You can do it." Song Yao sighed helplessly, and added: "Try to be low-key and simple. ”
Song Yao's mind is not on dressing up, will she see him when she participates in the palace banquet tomorrow?
Should I treat him like a stranger, or say hello? And how will he deal with himself?
Song Yao's heart was a little confused, and she had a terrible headache when she thought of Helian Sheng's true identity, that was the legendary Nine Emperor Uncles!
Red Sleeves smiled and had to nod his head.
My own master loves money so much, but he doesn't like to show off his wealth, it's really ...... The contradiction is so cute.
Tomorrow is the palace banquet, and today in the capital, there are destined to be thousands of lights to be extinguished later.
Not to mention that those officials and eunuchs who are about to enter the palace for a banquet want to admonish them, even if the abolished prince wants to force the palace, there are many people who can't sleep at night.
Rui Wang's Mansion.
Helian Sheng had a secret conversation with Duanyu Guifei for a while, and then returned to the study.
Tomorrow's things are under control, but Helian Sheng still told again: "No matter what happens tomorrow, we must protect their mother and son at any cost." ”
Zhu Xin received the order, and he knew the importance of Song Yao to Helian Sheng.
Raising his eyes and looking at the sky, the corners of Helian Sheng's lips hooked up a soft smile, rubbed his tired temples with one hand, and waved with the other, signaling that Zhuxin could retreat.
"I really want to come tomorrow soon." Helian Sheng chuckled, revealing his happy mood at the moment.
The abolished prince will enter Beijing, naturally he himself has this idea, and it is not Helian Sheng who fuels the trouble.
And all this is not only to give the emperor a wake-up call, but also to be with Song Yao openly.
As for whether Song Yao will be angry......
Helian Sheng touched his nose, he should be able to coax him, okay?
Tonight, the Changxing Marquis Mansion was sleepless all night, and even the waste prince couldn't sleep all night, pitiful of the little girl in the mansion, she was tossed to death several times, and she had to end up with no bones.
In the same way, the queen could not sleep tonight, but she could not do anything.
According to the custom, on the queen's birthday and the night before, the emperor would stay with her, even if he was relatively silent, to create the illusion of harmony between the emperor and the queen.
And tonight, the queen can't get rid of the emperor, she is afraid that she will accidentally miss the clue, and then there will be only one way to die.
The emperor was not interested in the empress, and with the abolition of the crown prince, even the most basic husband and wife feelings were much weaker, and the two of them were under the same roof with their own thoughts, but they did not have any common words, like strangers.
Guan Ju Palace.
The concubine was also sleepless tonight, but her heart was excited.
It's a pity that such a good mood can't be shared with others, and you have to hide your true emotions.
"Master, it's late at night, let's rest early." Mama Yu stepped forward to comfort.
There are many concubines in the harem, and no one does not hope that the emperor will be lucky.
Therefore, unless there is news of which palace the emperor went to spend the night, he will wait like this, hoping to receive favor.
However, the concubine was not looking forward to the emperor coming tonight, she just wanted to sit and wait for the dawn, and she couldn't wait for tomorrow to come in the blink of an eye.
"Ming'er is the queen's birthday, the emperor should go to Kunning Palace this time, I don't know how many sisters are going to be lost." The concubine said lightly, the expression on her face was very indifferent.
In previous years, the concubine's heart must be extremely unbalanced.
Because only the queen has this honor, even she, the concubine under one person, cannot compare with the queen's honor.
Except for the fifteenth day of the new year, the queen's birthday, the emperor will accompany the queen to show the queen's identity as the mother of the country.
And the other concubines, it is not easy to see the emperor on their birthday, and then they are favored by the emperor, where do they dare to ask for too much.
"yes." Mama Yu answered, but did not say any other words of comfort.
She knows what her master is thinking, and she also knows what the concubine is plotting these days.
But in the end, it has been an old mother for many years, and Mama Yu will not be stupid enough to explore, otherwise no matter how loyal she is, she will not end well.
"It's time to rest, let everyone stand down, you don't have to wait close today." The concubine heard a bird's cry and suddenly changed her mind.
Mama Yu also heard it, but she didn't know it, and beckoned the palace maid to come in and serve.
After the concubine went to bed, Mama Yu led the palace maid to retreat to the outer bed and stood at the door in person.
"But there's new news?" After hearing the sound of the door closing, the concubine sat up impatiently and asked.
"Yes, there are already people in the palace who are preparing to change a group of Praetorian Guards." The person came and whispered.
The concubine's eyes lit up, and she ordered: "Keep watching, if you have any news, you must report it to the palace in time." Remember, tomorrow you will send more people to protect the five princes, and it is best to take the opportunity to get rid of those few eyesores. ”
When she said the last sentence, the ruthlessness in the concubine's eyes was not inferior to that of a poisonous snake.
The person who came took the order and disappeared.
The concubine sat on the bed, but she couldn't sleep anyway, so she could only sit and wait for the dawn.
Chapter 274: Women are those who please themselves
Early in the morning, Song Yao got up to bathe and change clothes.
Although the palace banquet was held in the evening, the women had to go to the queen after the lunch break to greet the queen.
Of course, if there are relatives in the palace who are concubines, the female dependents can also take this opportunity to visit, which is regarded as the queen's welfare to the harem concubines, which is an unwritten rule since the founding of the Great Zhou Kingdom.
The old mansion did not have relatives in the palace as concubines, but Mrs. Song's maternal family had a cousin who was a nobleman in the palace, but she was not very favored, and she could see the emperor at most once a year.
In the past, Mrs. Song would not deliberately go to see this nobleman, but today she said that the nobleman wanted to meet Song Yao's mother and son, so she asked people to wake up early.
"Madame is careful after entering the palace, the slave maid looks at Mrs. Song and is not at ease, if only the two young masters did not have to enter the palace." While dressing up for Song Yao, Red Sleeves lowered his voice.
"Don't worry, at most, it's difficult, they don't dare to do anything today." Song Yao was calm.
"It's really a fly, it doesn't bite but it responds to people." Red Sleeves doesn't go to the palace today, so I can't rest assured.
At this time, Chasing Star entered the house and replied: "Madam, lunch is ready, and the two little masters are waiting over there." ”
"Hmm." Song Yao nodded and said to the red sleeves: "Don't put on makeup first, so as not to start over again in a while." ”
"It's fine." Red sleeves helped Song Yao get up.
When the master and servant came to the dining room, they saw that the two little ones were already seated and chatting happily.
Entering the palace for the first time, he had a lot to say, especially Song Yuanbao was very excited.
"Mother, when are we going to enter the palace?" When Song Yuanbao saw Song Yao coming, he immediately pounced on him and asked.
Catching Song Yuanbao's round body, Song Yao chuckled and said, "You have forgotten the rules you have learned in the past two days?" It's still so frizzy when you enter the palace, be careful that your butt will hit the board when the time comes, you won't be able to get out of bed if it hurts. ”
"Is there so much horror in the palace?" Song Yuanbao shrunk his neck, rubbed his intact buttocks and said, "Then I still don't want to enter the palace, there is everything delicious at home, and it's nothing if I don't see the emperor." ”
"It's not up to you." Nodding Song Yuanbao's forehead, and taking his little hand to the dining table, Song Yao smiled and said, "You two pad your stomachs, don't eat too much, so as not to always want to go to the toilet It is inconvenient." There are a lot of snacks in the palace, so you should be careful when eating after entering the palace. ”
"Then why am I still in the palace!" Song Yuanbao wailed and said aggrievedly: "I thought I could eat hard when I entered the palace!" After leaving the palace, you can show off with your friends. ”
Song Yinbao wanted to cover his face when he heard this, when will his younger brother's foodie attribute be changed?
"It's not wrong to listen to my mother's parents, there are too many twists and turns in the palace, let's not be tricked, otherwise my mother will still be affected." Song Yinbao soothed: "There are so many dim sum at home, many people who have eaten it say that it is even better than the one in the palace, you are still rare in the palace?" ”
"People haven't eaten it, they just want to try it!" Song Yuanbao still has a look of grievance, and he has eaten all the world's food, which is his dream as a foodie.
Song Yao was very satisfied with Song Yinbao's rhetoric, and sure enough, being two years older was different, and she was much more sensible.
But Song Yao couldn't help but feel a little distressed, it was really Song Yinbao who had experienced too much, and hatred made him have to grow, and only the parties concerned could know the sourness in it.
However, Song Yuanbao, who had those bad experiences, was nothing more than being hungry and having no fixed place, so Song Yuanbao attached great importance to food and silver, and was also afraid of living a hard life in the past.
But at that time, Song Yuanbao was very small, and he was protected by his mother, and the life of the past few years has been good, but he forgot about the unhappy things.
"Chasing the stars, can you get a silver needle after entering the palace?" Song Yao looked at Chaxing and asked.
"Yes." Star-by-star nodded.
"After Sister Chaser gives you the silver needle, you can eat it if you want." Song Yao looked at Song Yuanbao helplessly, rubbed the back of his head and said, "But remember, the identity of those who can enter the palace for the banquet should not be underestimated, and the intricately connected relationship behind it is even more of a headache." After you enter the palace, unless you are a good friend you knew before, try not to deal with others, let alone go with others at will, and you can't be separated. ”
For her two sons, Song Yao has tens of thousands of worries.
But there are rules in the palace, male babies over the age of seven cannot be brought to the women's area, and Song Yao can't take them with her even if she has the heart, let alone take care of them all the time.
And male guards are not allowed to enter the palace, and the two children have to rely on themselves after entering the palace.
"Madame, don't worry, there will be two girls who know kung fu to send over in a while to protect the two little masters." Chaser spoke on the side.
Song Yao's eyes lit up, knowing that this was Helian Sheng's arrangement, and she felt a lot of ironing in her heart.
If Helian Sheng only loves her and can't love her children, then Song Yao will never be emotionally attached to Helian Sheng.
In other words, even if he is attracted to Helian Sheng, he will part ways with him because He Liansheng can't love the house and Wu.
It's not that Song Yao is selfish, but love is not everything in life, and they can live without each other, but Song Yuanbao needs his mother to take care of him.
The most important thing is that Song Yuanbao is occasionally naughty, but he has not done anything unfavorable to Heliansheng, if Heliansheng still can't accept Song Yuanbao's existence, it means that Heliansheng minds Song Yuyao's past, and there will naturally be mustard between the two.
It's just that in a blink of an eye, Song Yao thought about a lot of things, but the smile on her face was even brighter, which showed that she was in a good mood.
"Madam, please rest assured, there are other people in the palace to protect the two little sons, and they will not let the two little sons fall into danger." With these words, Zhuxing lowered his voice and whispered in Song Yao's ear.
Glancing at her two sons, Song Yao nodded in understanding.
Those people are in the dark, naturally they will not reveal their identities easily, and they should be Helian Sheng's secret stake.
Unless it is a matter of the safety of the lives of the two little guys, Song Yao doesn't want Helian Sheng's people to be damaged in vain, after all, it is not easy to be placed in the palace, and it is also of great use.
"Entering the palace this time is also a chance for the two of you to experience. My mother doesn't want you to make any noble friends, but I want you to listen and watch more carefully, whether you are an official or walk the rivers and lakes in the future, it will be extremely beneficial. Remember, everywhere there are opportunities for you to learn, and your first priority is to keep yourself safe. Song Yao looked at her two sons and solemnly explained.
"Yes, mother." The two boys answered in unison.
"Let's dine." Song Yao greeted with a smile.
The family of three hadn't finished lunch yet, and Song Ge Lao and Song Zhiyuan arrived one after another, and the small kitchen inevitably had to add more dishes.
Fortunately, Song Yao has always opened a stove alone, and Song Ge's old father and son often come over to eat, so there is no shortage of ingredients in the small kitchen.
At this time, the family of five had just finished eating, and Mrs. Song sent someone to urge Song Yao's mother and son to move quickly.
Song Ge Lao knew who Mrs. Song was going to take Song Yao's mother and son to see, and his brows couldn't help frowning, obviously displeased.
"If you don't like to go, then don't go, and let the Father get her back." Song Ge said unhappily.
Song Ge Lao originally suspected that Song Yuyao's disappearance was inseparable from Mrs. Song, and after Song Yao returned home, Mrs. Song didn't even have the slightest hint of cold and warmth, and Song Ge Lao felt that she was inseparable from the events of the year.
It's just that there is no evidence, and Song Ge Lao can't do anything, but the feeling of regret for Mrs. Song in his heart is also decreasing day by day.
"My daughter has just come back, and there is no one close to her, so it's good to go out and see the world more, the father can't carry everything for his daughter, so let her learn to grow up by herself." Song Yao smiled shallowly, very touched by Song Ge's care, but she didn't want to embarrass Song Ge.
Although Song Ge Lao has always disliked making friends with powerful people, let alone standing in line, it is not good to offend everyone.
Seeing that Song Yao really didn't care, Song Ge Lao couldn't say anything.
When his daughter grows up, even if he wants to protect it, he can't protect it for a lifetime.
"My sister is right, my father is relieved. My sister is very capable now, otherwise she wouldn't have earned such a big family business. Moreover, my sister has two sons, and if the father has always protected her under his wings, how can she teach the two little nephews? Song Zhiyuan smiled on the side and spoke.
Unlike Song Ge Lao, Song Zhiyuan knew about Helian Sheng's existence, so he naturally had nothing to worry about Song Yao's entry into the palace.
As long as you are in the territory of the Great Zhou Kingdom, if you want to attack the woman of the Nine Emperor Uncles, it will also depend on whether you will survive to that time.
"Well, my father and your brother will enter the palace later, and they will take care of my two little grandchildren when the time comes, you just have to rest assured." Song Ge Lao said, and said to Song Zhiyuan: "Let's enter the palace early today." ”
"Yes, father." Knowing that Song Ge was not worried about the two children, Song Zhiyuan naturally agreed.
"A daughter sends her father." Song Yao got up.
"No need, you go get dressed." Song Ge Lao saw that Song Yao was not wearing any hairpin on her head, so she remembered that she had forgotten to add these things to her daughter, and couldn't help but blame Mrs. Song for being incompetent, but he didn't want to mention Mrs. Song, so he said: "You have a lot of good jewelry in your private library, all of which were left by your mother, and it is appropriate for you to use them at this age." After the palace banquet is over, ask the housekeeper to go to the treasury for your father to choose some things from the palace for you, and it will be convenient for entertainment in the future. ”
Hearing this, Song Yao smiled and said: "Father doesn't have to worry about these trivial matters, my daughter has been in business for a few years, and she also has a jewelry shop under her name, but there is no shortage of these things." However, the daughter has some famous authentic works here, and she will send them to her father when she turns around, so as not to be dusty here for her daughter. ”
Song Ge Lao was not interested in jewelry, but he was very rare in the authentic works of celebrities, and immediately said: "Okay, good, that father is going to feast his eyes." But I don't want to be a father, and the appreciation is that since it is your thing, it is naturally to be left to the heirloom of my grandson, how can I, as a grandfather, take it. ”
"In this way, being a brother can also get a touch of light, learn from calligraphy and painting, and have the opportunity to copy, which others can't ask for." Song Zhiyuan responded to the side and said: "These things are not in a hurry, it's not too late to talk about it tomorrow, my sister should go and dress up, it will make those people envious." ”
"Your brother is right, go get dressed." Song Ge was busy urging, otherwise if he continued, he would go directly to see the authentic works of those celebrities.
Song Yao responded with a smile, and then stopped sending the two.
The two little ones had their own subordinates to take them to wash up, while Song Yao went back to her bedroom and dressed her up with red sleeves.
Thinking that it was possible to see Heliansheng when she entered the palace today, Song Yao was not averse to grooming, and even looked forward to Heliansheng's amazing expression when he saw her.
Due to inertia, Song Yao doesn't like complicated outfits, so she has never appeared in front of Helian Sheng, which is the main reason why she will look forward to it.
The so-called woman is the one who pleases herself, and Song Yao only realized the meaning of this sentence today.
