Chapter 250: Asking for Marriage
The first day of the new year was the palace banquet, and the news of Helian Sheng's poisoning in the palace in the Chinese New Year's Eve naturally spread throughout the capital.
Many people don't know the will left by the first emperor, so they speculate that the emperor can't tolerate the king of Rui, who has made great achievements in war, and gossip is flying all over the sky.
Of course, these are just rumors, and no one dares to say it on the surface, talking about the Son of Heaven is a capital crime.
On the day of the palace banquet, several old ministers led by Song Ge Lao actually asked the emperor to investigate the matter.
Although the reason is that someone in the palace has poisoned him, and he may murder the Son of Heaven one day, the emperor has nowhere to vent his anger, and he has to reward a few officials, so this palace banquet is not interesting.
After Song Yao received the news, she couldn't help but be worried, and looked in the direction of Rui Wangfu every day, but she couldn't help it.
Mo said that Heliansheng did not disclose his identity, that is, Heliansheng informed Song Yao of his identity, and Song Yao had no reason to come to visit, unless they had already made a marriage.
And Helian Sheng was poisoned this time, the situation was obviously not good, the whole person lost a lot of weight, and his body was a little weaker than the last poisoning.
"Master, the matter has been done." Zhu Xin looked at the appearance of his master, and he felt distressed, but he felt that his master's revenge was too gentle.
"After fifteen, the movement is bigger." Helian Sheng nodded, and said in a soft tone: "Didn't the waste prince want to go back to Beijing?" Then let him come back. ”
"Master......" Zhu Xin had the heart to persuade a few words, and he didn't want Helian Sheng to bother at this time.
"In the end, the abolished prince, even if he is dead, he should do a ritual here in the capital, at least the coffin will have to stop in the Huguo Temple for a few days." He Liansheng curled the corners of his lips and sneered.
When Zhu Xin heard this, he immediately understood that Helian Sheng didn't plan to think about that bloodline this time.
"The slave understands, so he will start arranging, and he will give the master good news in the first month." Zhu Xin rubbed his palms, and said in a cold voice.
If you dare to hurt your master, you must be conscious of death, even if you are an emperor, let alone a waste prince!
"Well, you can do it." Helian Sheng waved his hand, his energy was low, and he slept most of the day.
Seeing that Helian Sheng was tired, the words that came to his mouth were swallowed back.
At this time, it is better to let the master recuperate with peace of mind, and there is no need to be distracted.
As everyone knows, after Zhu Xin left, Helian Sheng opened his eyes again, still so tired, but a little more tender.
If it weren't for his own bad situation, he would definitely go to Song Yao to sit there, and only by looking at Song Yao could he feel at ease.
Secretly said: Fortunately, I didn't explain my identity to Song Yao, this time there was such a big trouble, how worried Song Yao should be.
Helian Sheng fell asleep after thinking about it, he didn't know that Song Yao couldn't sleep at night because of his affairs, and he was haggard and distressed.
Song House.
Since knowing that Lord Rui was poisoned and unconscious, Song Yao hadn't slept peacefully for many nights, and the bruises under her eyes were very obvious.
But Song Yao didn't dare to let people take her to King Rui's Mansion without permission, for fear of causing trouble to Helian Sheng.
The last time Helian Sheng was poisoned, Song Yao had seen that dangerous appearance, and she couldn't feel at ease if she didn't see Helian Sheng's current situation in person.
But Song Yao didn't want to believe that this was true, so she could only tell herself over and over again that this poisoning must not be what the outside world had rumored, and it should be what Helian Sheng wanted to do to create the illusion of poisoning.
As for Helian Sheng not coming to her side, it should be inconvenient, she has to understand.
Under such self-hypnosis, Song Yao was able to hold on and did not do anything to forcibly break into the Rui Wangfu.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Yun Zhongxiao came to the Song Mansion with a tired face, and it was not difficult to see from his expression that Yun Zhongxiao was also troublesome during this time.
"In a few days will be the day of your official prayers, and I have come here today because my mother has prepared for you the clothes and jewelry you need for that day." After the greetings, Yun Zhongxiao expressed his intention, "After fifteen, my mother will send someone over, and you don't need to be nervous, it's just some procedures that must be followed." ”
"The eldest brother thanked my aunt for me, and let my aunt bother." Song Yao smiled lightly.
"Mother likes you very much, and after the official worship, you should also call yourself a stepmother." Yun Zhongxiao's smile is very warm.
Finally able to take care of Song Yao justifiably, he doesn't know if he can still meet the woman he likes in this life, but being able to guard Song Yao like this is already his greatest happiness.
Song Yao bowed her head again and said softly: "I never thought that I would have my mother's love, and someone would be able to comfort me in the future." ”
"Yaoyao will definitely be smooth sailing, if anyone dares to bully you, the eldest brother will definitely do whatever it takes to seek justice for you." In the clouds, he said in a deep voice.
Song Yao's heart warmed, and the brother and sister talked again, all about business.
In the new year, although the source of customers in the restaurant is stable, it should also be innovative, so as to achieve more long-term development.
After drinking a cup of tea, Song Yao hesitated and asked, "Big brother, you and Lian Sheng have known each other for a long time, right?" ”
"Hmm." Yun Zhongxiao nodded and looked at Song Yao, waiting for her next words.
"Does Big Brother know what he's doing now?" Song Yao asked, and added: "I don't want to find out his privacy, I just want to know if he is safe." ”
Yun Zhongxiao sighed in his heart, and wanted to tell Song Yao the truth, but saying it at this time was nothing more than to make Song Yao more worried.
Yun Zhongxiao didn't fail to see Song Yao's haggardness, and knew that Song Yao should have guessed a few points about Helian Sheng's identity.
"He's fine." Yun Zhongxiao chuckled: "There are so many people around him, and it won't be his turn if others have something." It's just that something happened to his family, so I'm afraid I haven't had time to see you lately. ”
Song Yao frowned, looking at Yun Zhong's expression that didn't seem to be fake, and her heart settled down a lot.
After all, Helian Sheng is the business of King Rui, and Song Yao is just guessing.
Perhaps deliberately, Song Yao still doesn't know the full name of King Rui, and it is precisely because of this that she has not accurately proved Helian Sheng's identity.
"When my eldest brother said this, I was relieved." Song Yao smiled lightly and didn't ask about Helian Sheng again.
Yun Zhongxiao has a lot of things, and after talking for a while, he said goodbye to Song Yao, just let her rest assured, if there is anything inconvenient to come forward, just let people go to Yunfu to find him.
After Yun Zhongxiao left, Song Yao cheered up and prepared to focus on business.
With such a big stall, Song Yao can't be lazy if she wants to.
On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, Qinghai and Keren returned, both of them looked tired, and Keren still had injuries on his body.
Let the two go to rest first, Song Yao asked Red Sleeves to take care of Keren, and also had the intention of listening to the situation, afraid that asking about the reason for the late return would embarrass Keren.
It's no wonder that Song Yao thinks so, but after all, she is a little girl, she is good-looking, and she will come back with an injury, and it is difficult for Song Yao to be careless.
However, after Qinghai washed, he came to Song Yao to ask for guilt.
"The subordinates failed to take care of the lovely people, please punish the lady." Qinghai Dong knelt in front of Song Yao, he had always jumped out, but his eyes were red, and the self-blame in his eyes was enough to drown him.
"Tell me what happened first, and I will know how to punish you." Song Yao secretly took a breath and did not let Qinghai get up.
It's not that Song Yao deliberately made things difficult, but since Qinghai said so, he thought that he had really done something wrong, and letting him kneel for a while would make him feel more comfortable.
"It's all subordinates who are incompetent, it's subordinates who ......" Qinghai's shoulders trembled, and he cried about what happened to the two.
It turned out that on the way back to Beijing, Qinghai bought a lot of things with Keren in order to please Keren.
It stands to reason that both of them are also measured, and they will not buy too expensive things, and they will not be targeted.
But Qinghai accidentally saved a master's daughter, and he promised to be a person for convenience, Mo said that Qinghai did not agree, but the girl was very good-mouthed, so she naturally taught a lesson.
Although the other party is just the daughter of the master, she is not a good identity, but the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, the woman actually hired a local thug, took advantage of the lonely person to arrest the person, and threatened Qinghai to marry her.
Because he couldn't find Keren's whereabouts, Qinghai could only maneuver around one or two, and this delay made Keren suffer a lot of crimes.
But although the man was still innocent, he was locked up in a place where he did not see the light of day, and was severely beaten by the woman every day, and was denied food, and almost starved to death.
When Qinghai found Keren, Keren was covered with injuries, and because he had never been treated, the wounds on his body were festering, and he was in a coma with a high fever for many days.
Qinghai took care of the lovely person wholeheartedly, and only after the lovely person got better, did not do anything to the woman.
As a result, the journey back to Beijing was delayed.
"It's all the fault of the subordinates, if the subordinates didn't meddle in their affairs, but people wouldn't have experienced this and wouldn't have suffered so much." Qinghai cried out loud as she spoke, which showed that she was really distressed.
Hearing this, Song Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what era, if a woman is forced, it will leave physical and mental trauma, which is more terrible than gossip.
"You're at fault, this happened, why don't you let someone bring the letter back? There are our people everywhere, even if our people don't have that ability, you can still contact Lian Gongzi's people, why don't you ask for help? Song Yao asked, a little annoyed in her heart.
Qinghai's body stiffened, and he lowered his head silently.
Helian Sheng has been moving recently, and no matter how many people he has under him, there are not enough people, how can he call in local manpower because of his own personal affairs?
Song Yao also has hidden piles in various places, but after all, the foundation is too shallow, and he can only find some things on the bright side, and he can't go deep.
Taking a deep breath to ease her emotions a little, Song Yao continued: "You go down to rest first, how to punish you, and wait until the lovely injury is healed." ”
"Madam, my subordinates want to ask my wife to be the master and let my subordinates marry a lovely person." Qinghai blushed and said: "If we can live in one place when we go out, it will be more convenient for our subordinates to take care of Keren, and our subordinates don't want to see Keren have an accident anymore." ”
