Chapter 261: The Hongmen Banquet
What kind of mood Mrs. Song was in to leave, Song Ge didn't care, she almost completely forgot that there was such a person, and kept asking Song Zhiyuan what clues he had gotten.
Although Song Zhiyuan was talking to Song Ge Lao, Yu Guang was paying attention to Mrs. Song.
Seeing Mrs. Song's stiff back and flustered steps, a look of contempt flashed in her eyes.
will tell Song Ge Lao some news, one is that he is afraid that Song Ge Lao will not be able to bear this great joy when he sees Song Yao one day, but will hurt his body.
The second is to let Mrs. Song mess up, as long as Mrs. Song knows that Song Ge Lao will find Song Ge Lao at any time, Mrs. Song will definitely carefully check the people who participated in this matter back then, and there will be no worries about no witnesses at that time.
But there are drawbacks to doing this, Mrs. Song will definitely want to get rid of Song Yao without leaving any way, which will inevitably bring trouble to Song Yao.
Not to mention that Song Ge Lao couldn't sleep with excitement this night, and said words to the portrait of his deceased wife all night, crying and laughing for a while.
After Song Yao returned home, she also couldn't sleep, she couldn't help but take Song Zhiyuan's words to heart, but there was no one who could discuss countermeasures.
"Stinky Liansheng, I can't see your figure at the critical moment, but I will hide away!" Song Yao couldn't fall asleep over and over, and scolded He Liansheng over and over again who hadn't slept well for several busy nights.
Changxing Marquis Mansion, study.
The waste prince sat on the throne in a well-dressed manner, because of the experience after being deposed, the whole person was shrouded in yin, even if he was wearing a gorgeous costume, it only made people feel the gloom on his body, not luxurious.
Changxinghou sat down, looking at his grandson, and his heart was heavy.
Although the former prince was a little inactive and had mediocre qualifications, he could be a good emperor with the assistance of virtuous ministers, at least he could be the backer of the Marquis of Changxing.
But the gloomy atmosphere of the abolished prince made the Marquis of Changxing worry about the future of his children and grandchildren.
Such a cold person, once he becomes the emperor, he will definitely be cruel and unkind, and the Marquis of Changxing will not be great to consider the people of the world first, but he is afraid that the abolished prince will not be able to tolerate the Marquis of Changxing Mansion in the future.
is now a deposed prince, and he is a sinner who has returned to Beijing secretly and has no foundation at all.
It stands to reason that if the abolished prince has a little filial piety or a little scheming, he should give up his throne to the Marquis of Changxing in the territory of the Marquis of Changxing, in order to show respect and seek greater benefits.
But after the abolished prince moved into the Changxing Marquis Mansion, he treated everyone as subordinates, and he barely gave Changxing Hou some face, but he was very impatient.
And the waste prince has to toss two clean girls to death every night, and the Marquis of Changxing is afraid of attracting attention, so he can only be buried in the backyard secretly.
"Grandpa is all ready?" The waste prince will ask a question every day to be at ease.
said that it was a secret matter in the study, but in fact, it was just a report from the prince of Changxing in order to show his identity.
But things have already been arranged, and if you don't want to startle the snake, you have to take no other action for the time being, and Changxinghou's daily answer is the same.
"Back to Your Highness, it has been arranged, Your Highness just rest assured." Changxinghou lost the interest in explaining again, and after saying this, he picked up the teacup.
The waste prince, who was waiting for the report of the Marquis of Changxing, saw that he was actually drinking tea, which was disrespectful to himself, and his eyes immediately became gloomy.
However, the waste prince was not so stupid that he was hopeless, and he suppressed his anger in his heart, so he waved his hand and said: "That is the case, grandpa go back and rest, the palace is also tired." ”
"Yes, the minister retired." Marquis Changxing got up and saluted his farewell, then turned around and left.
The Changxing Marquis Mansion is the queen's maternal family, whether it is the fall of the queen or the crown prince, it will affect the fortune of the Changxing Marquis Mansion.
Especially when the abolished prince returns to Beijing privately, whether the Marquis of Changxing Mansion is in love or not, once someone makes a fuss about this, the fate of the Marquis of Changxing Mansion will not be much better.
Therefore, the Marquis of Changxing can only gamble on the future of the Marquis of Changxing's Mansion and stand on the side of the abolished prince without reservation.
Didn't the abolished prince understand this, so he dared to return to Beijing in a desperate way.
"Hmph, you dare to perfunctory this palace, is it really so easy to fool this palace?" The waste prince slapped the table and said hatefully.
However, people are under the eaves, whether the waste prince can turn over or not depends on the Changxing Marquis Mansion, and naturally he does not dare to turn his face at this time.
And said that after Changxinghou left the study, he went to the eldest son, and the father and son secretly talked about the time of a stick of incense, and when Changxinghou left, he asked the guards to take away the little grandson born to the eldest son's concubine, a little doll who was only more than a year old.
This time the gamble is not only the future of the Changxing Marquis Mansion, but also the life.
The grandson was born with a big feast, and he was too old, it was not easy to send it away, only the child born to this unfavored concubine, few people knew, and sending it out was also to ensure that the bloodline of the Changxing Marquis Mansion would not be broken.
As for that little concubine, she was taken into custody, and once things didn't go well in the palace, she would be the first to die.
After Helian Sheng got the news, he asked people to secretly keep an eye on the whereabouts of the child, and he was not allowed to intercept people before leaving the capital, so as not to alarm the people of the Changxing Marquis Mansion and make them dare not act.
The next day, Song Yao stared at the dark circles under her eyes for breakfast, but received an invitation that gave her a headache.
The eldest princess's mansion is also a frequent visitor to Song Ji, but she has never had any contacts.
Song Yao also knew what the reputation of the eldest princess's mansion was, and let her be a guest, either to receive a generous gift, or to be greasy.
Song Yao didn't know that the county lord of Suya was bent on marrying Helian Sheng, because the secret guard was afraid that she would be too careful, so he had always deliberately concealed it.
The eldest princess's mansion is not a lot of food, and the master in the mansion is not good at running a business, so if you want to live a luxurious life, you can only hold various banquets with the momentum.
The merchants in the capital all know how powerful the eldest princess is, and in order not to cause trouble, they are willing to give up the silver, but they are also most afraid of the invitation from the eldest princess's mansion.
And Song Yao entered Beijing twice, but the invitation from the eldest princess's mansion was received for the first time.
"Let's check if the guests who went this time are familiar with each other, and whether there are any cats in them." Song Yao looked at the post and put it aside with a headache.
The eldest princess's post, Song Yao knew that she couldn't push it, otherwise she would definitely cause trouble.
Song Yao can secretly deal with the eldest princess's mansion, but if the eldest princess wants to take revenge on her, she will definitely come clearly.
In the evil imperial society, Song Yao really didn't dare to fight against the emperor's relatives and relatives, unless she didn't want to die.
"Madame, don't be sad, this eldest princess loves to accumulate money, it's a big deal to break the wealth and avoid disasters, and doing business is not like this." Redsleeves persuaded on the side.
"You girl can see it, but that's not it." Song Yao chuckled, feeling that she was worried.
Even if the eldest princess's mansion is disgusting, it can't be considered a tiger's den in Longtan, and it can't kill her in front of everyone.
"The banquet of the eldest princess's mansion, let Zhuxing and Zhuyue accompany Madame to go. They all know kung fu and know some pharmacology, but slaves and maids can't compare. "Red sleeves don't compete for the title of the first maid, so they think about Song Yao wholeheartedly.
"Well, it's okay to let the two of them go." Song Yao also thought so, so as not to let the red sleeves and them be wronged, "The account books for this quarter have been sent one after another, you urge the account room to be counted, I'm afraid that they will make mistakes in their busyness." ”
The little girls in the account room are not experienced enough, and there are new little girls, so they can only follow and do the checking, and they can't fully get started.
The most important thing is to check the account book, not simply check the number, but also have the ability to find the problem.
"The slave is awake, Madame can rest assured." Redsleeves laughed.
"Go and prepare gifts, this eldest princess is a bloodsucker, and she will inevitably lose some." Song Yao said with some pain.
Red Sleeves chuckled, his wife loves money, and giving it to the eldest princess's mansion is equivalent to beating a dog with meat buns, but it is not distressing.
Three days passed in a flash, and Song Yao had to go to the eldest princess's mansion for a banquet.
However, Song Yao didn't get up early to go, and she really didn't like the eldest princess's mansion.
But she can't go late, lest she be said to be holding a shelf.
The two girls of Chasing Stars and Chasing Moons followed Song Yao to the eldest princess's mansion, bringing a few gifts that were easy to exchange for silver money, but they were not rare gifts, but they couldn't be faulted.
When Song Yao arrived at the eldest princess's mansion, many ladies had already arrived one after another, and they were sitting in the banquet hall chatting, looking very harmonious.
From the time Song Yao entered the mansion, someone reported to the county lord of Suya.
After learning that Song Yao was the woman Helian Sheng had a crush on, the county lord of Suya had the intention of killing Song Yao, so he begged the eldest princess to give Song Yao an invitation.
The eldest princess doesn't mind sending out one more post, and receiving one more gift is what she is most happy to see.
As for whether the county lord of Suya has any careful thoughts, the eldest princess doesn't care at all, anyway, the silver is in her hands, and even if a businesswoman is calculated by her daughter, she can only consider herself unlucky.
Yes, the eldest princess didn't ask anything, and she didn't let people investigate, but she didn't know that she almost fell into bad luck this time.
"Let people bring that slut, the county lord wants to see how charming this slut is, a widow with wild seeds, and dare to hook up with the Nine Emperor Uncles!" The county lord of Suya gritted his teeth and commanded.
The subordinates didn't dare to disobey, so they hurriedly went to the front yard to invite Song Yao over.
Song Yao, who was originally talking to Mrs. Yun, heard that the county lord of Suya was invited, and her face was inexplicable, she didn't seem to know such a master.
Mrs. Yun's face changed.
There is not a good bird in the eldest princess's mansion, and this Suya county lord is even more notorious, and he is interested in Song Yao, saying that she is a well-intentioned friend, but Mrs. Yun does not believe it.
But the girl was standing here waiting for Song Yao, and Mrs. Yun couldn't say anything, so she could only pat Song Yao's hand and hint: "Yaoyao, there are many rules in this princess's mansion, and when you see the lord of Suya, you only need to reply in a proper manner." ”
Seeing Mrs. Yun glancing at her, her expression was a little stagnant, and Song Yao knew that there must be something greasy in this.
"Don't worry, mother-in-law, Yaoyao has also learned the rules for a while, so she shouldn't make mistakes." Song Yao chuckled, got up and left with the girl.
The two girls of Xingxing and Zhuyue immediately followed, and their faces were not very good-looking.
Song Yao didn't know who the county lord of Suya was, but they knew.
The two girls glanced at each other, and both saw the suspicion and solemnity in each other's eyes.
The eldest princess's mansion covers a large area, and although the lord of Suya is the eldest princess's favorite daughter, she is the youngest child, and the courtyard where she lives is also a little back.
Song Yao walked for half an hour before coming to the residence of the county lord of Suya, and she was so tired that she didn't want to lift her legs.
It's not that Song Yao's body has deteriorated, it's that the little girl is walking too fast, Song Yao is a little tired to follow, and she is afraid that she will get lost if she can't keep up, so she can only practice race walking once.
However, after coming to the courtyard of the county lord of Suya, Song Yao immediately became vigilant, and always felt that a pair of vicious eyes were staring at her secretly, like a poisonous snake, which made people chill all over her body.
