When Jian Xubai returned to the house, it was already dusk.

Most of the subordinates have already heard that Empress Wei was punished for murdering the concubine Cui Jianlian, and her own mistress was also involved - the master entered the palace to intercede, but he did not return until the curfew, and although he was not depressed when he returned, he was not happy, and the situation really did not look smooth.

So I waited for more and more trembling, lest something go wrong and be taken advantage of by the master.

"Did you come back so late, did you use dinner?" Song Yixiao was doing needlework in the inner room, and when she saw her husband stepping in, she hurriedly inserted the needle into the embroidery bandage, and got up to greet her, "If it's useless, I'll ask the small kitchen to leave the food." ”

"I ate some snacks on the way, but I didn't feel hungry, so I didn't have to." Jian Xubai chuckled and said, "Why are you doing needlework?" The candle flame is no better than the light of the sky, carefully eyed. ”

Song Yi pursed his lips with a smile: "Chaoping has a playmate, and it's much easier to coax than usual." I only told them two stories today, and then I went to sleep satisfied. I'm going to wait for you, I have nothing to do horizontally and vertically, just embroider two stitches. ”

He also said, "You know, my embroidery skills are still good, and I don't feel tired of doing such a good needlework." ”

Jian Xubai let out a "hmm" and said, "But don't move the needle at night." ”

After saying this, the husband and wife fell silent for a while.

After a while, Song Yi smiled and calmed down, and finally asked the matter: "Your Majesty doesn't plan to pardon me?" ”

"Your Majesty is indeed quite angry." Jian Xubai didn't want to tell his wife the truth, after all, it was only the first day today, and he hadn't despaired of pleading, and now he told his wife, but many people were scared and scared, and maybe it would indirectly affect the children-so he only said calmly, "But the specific punishment hasn't been decided yet, so I just went to Gu Xiang's place and asked him to help enter the palace tomorrow to mediate, and he has already agreed." ”

He also said, "Gu Xiangde is highly respected, how can Your Majesty give him face." ”

"Even so, I am afraid that the brotherhood between you and Your Majesty will be hurt!" Song Yi smiled when he heard this, showing a look of depression, and sighed, "Speaking of which, your Majesty grew up watching, over the years, Your Majesty has always taken care of you, and even me and Chaoping have not been favored by Your Majesty!" Now for the wrongs I have committed, and to make Your Majesty angry with you, I ...... I...... Alas, it would be good if you didn't marry me in the first place! ”

Jian Xubai frowned and said, "What are you doing when you say such frustration?" Is it difficult for me to be afraid? What's more, since you know that Your Majesty values me, how can you be sure that I can't protect you?! ”

Song Yixiao was silent for a while, and said, "It's not that I don't trust you, I just think that this time it's too calculating!" I really don't know who is behind the scenes? ”

"The only thing that has been found behind King Liang is our dead grandfather." Jian Xubai also felt that his wife had suffered from the pond fish this time, and sighed when he heard this, "Although Your Majesty is very suspicious that the Su family or Aunt and Uncle Daiguo have intervened, there are no clues in this regard after the current investigation - of course, these things have happened within a few days, and maybe in two days, someone will not be able to survive the torture." ”

After a pause, "I'll protect you anyway." ”

"Today, Cousin Xie and her sister-in-law came to visit, including Concubine Xia from Hengshan Palace, who also sent someone." Song Yi shook his head with a smile and said, "It's just that Concubine Xia didn't mean to take Zhuo'er back, and my sister refused to take Xuan'er away, so I really can't help but make me suspicious!" ”

Jian Xubai frowned: "Don't you say that I forgot about my two children!" ”

Although he is usually not bad to Lu Zhuoer and Song Xuan, he will hug and tease him when he sees it, and when he buys some gadgets for Jian Qingyue, he never forgets to bring a copy for these two children - but of course the most important thing in his heart is his own daughter.

So when Song Yixiao's murder of Cui Jianlian was exposed, he was only concerned about his wife's safety, but he neglected that in this case, the families of the two children should take them away to avoid trouble.

Hearing the words at this moment, she pondered for a while, and said, "Concubine Xia should be afraid that she won't be able to take care of Zhuang'er, so she doesn't want to take Zhuo'er back as a last resort?" As for your sister...... Is it because of my grandmother? ”

Song Luoyan is Shen Biansheng's wife, and the reason why Shen Biansheng and Liu Jingcheng have a relationship with the Yanguo Mansion is because of the needle threading of the old lady Duanmu.

According to Jian Limiao's previous explanation of Jian Xubai, in order to avenge the younger sister of Mrs. Yan Guotai, Mrs. Duanmu took the opportunity of exile to have a very close relationship with the Shen and Liu families, and even planned something in private that could not be known to the royal family.

Since the old lady Duanmu has such a close relationship with the Shen and Liu families, it is understandable that Song Luoyan, as the wife of Shen Biansheng, did not dare to destroy the relationship with the Yanguo Mansion for the sake of Song Xuan alone.

But Song Yi said with a smile: "She came back to me these two times, and it was never the Shen family that she represented, but the Song family's side branches." What's more, Song Xuan was originally her maiden nephew, not a child of the Shen family! In Liaozhou before, when I met with Song Luoshi, I asked them about the situation of this branch, although the people are much more prosperous than the Yanzhi, but to be honest, it is not very prosperous - Song Luoshi said that he has three sons and four daughters, but there are only two heirs, one is the eldest son, and the other is Xuan'er! Do you think he would be willing to give up Xuan'er? ”

Serious people attach great importance to the difference between the concubines and the concubines.

The weight of the sister-in-law is not comparable to ordinary concubines at all, especially Song Xuan, although he is young, his talent is good, according to Song Luoshi's hint at the time, he is even the most talented child under Song Luoshi's knees - so he was selected to give Song Yixiao as a righteous son, in addition to being a further hub for the relationship between the two parties, it is also hoped to be the icing on the cake for him, after all, there is a stepmother of the Duchess of the country, and the road to the future can be smoother and more spacious.

"You mean, what does the Song side branch know?" Jian Xubai pinched the corners of his forehead and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go to the shower and change clothes, let's talk about it in detail!" ”

Since he listened to Emperor Duanhua's decision in Xuanming Palace today, he has been worried about the big issue of his wife's life and death, and other things...... That's really no heart and no mood to care.

Now that I heard the meaning of Song Yi's joke, it seemed to be related to an earth-shattering conspiracy, and in awe, I decided to take a refreshment by bathing and changing clothes, so as not to neglect anything important and miss the opportunity to save my wife!

After he went to the bath room, Song Yixiao picked up the needle and thread again, and continued to embroider a butterfly love flower under the bright candlelight.

In fact, when she saw that Song Luoyan was not really worried about her predicament, and even took this opportunity to instigate her resentment towards Emperor Duanhua, she had thought that since Emperor Duanhua had a very bad impression of herself, it seemed to be a good thing for her to see him unlucky?

But in a split second, she snuffed out that idea.

The risk of changing the dynasty is too great, not to mention that Jian Xubai's advantage in the Duanhua Dynasty is already very great, even if he supports a new monarch, what greater benefits can he get? The title is already the top level of the courtiers, and the official position is not low, he is still so young - just like the Hengshan Palace, the current Yanguo Mansion has to consider not making great achievements at all, but starting to think about other meritorious achievements!

What's more, she doesn't really trust Song Luoyan and Song Luoshi.

Or Song Yixiao's trust in the two brothers and sisters has not reached the point where she is willing to rebel with them in confusion - after all, Song Luoyan's brothers and sisters have not had a showdown with her until now.

It can be seen that not only Song Yixiao guarded them, but they also did not fully trust Song Yixiao.

"When I was in Liaozhou, Song Luoshi once told me that the reason why he rushed to Liaozhou to see me in person in the name of dealing with the business troubles under his name was mainly because he found an opportunity and wanted to invite me to participate." Song Yixiao recalled the past and couldn't help pursing her lips, "What he said at that time is a big thing, but now it seems that it is ...... I don't know if it's true or not? ”

At that time, Song Luoshi told her that he accidentally got a top-secret news, that is, in the matter of Emperor Duanhua's poisoning of Han Ji, the degree of damage to the imperial body was greater than that announced to the outside world - so this emperor looks good, but in fact, he can't live as long as Emperor Xianjia!

In this case, the prince's thighs are worth hugging.

"The gap between us and the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too big to say at all." At that time, Song Luoshi said, "But the clan sister has long been friendly with the queen's mother, so the matter of getting closer to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in advance, we can't do it without the clan sister!" ”

At that time, Song Yixiao was actually a little skeptical about these words, because of such a big news, Jian Xubai, who had a very close relationship with the emperors of the two dynasties, had never heard of it, and how did Song Luoshi, who had been living in Xiliang, know?

Song Luoshi explained the source to her, which was: "The ancestors of the two families of Song Wei have intermarried for generations, and during the Xiyong period, this agreement was invalidated because of the Wei family's children. However, the relationship between the two clans is closer than that of the other four of the six domestic valves. Therefore, some of the news that the Wei family knows, the Song family will also know - of course, how exactly did they know, it is not enough for outsiders. ”

This is a nice thing to say, and he also used his ancestors as a pretense, which actually implies that he has someone in Fengzhou Wei.

Song Yixiao didn't believe in this statement very much, because of her background, she didn't know much about the Wang family, but she also felt that Fengzhou Wei's secrets were not so easy to listen to. Song Luoshi is only a side branch of the Song family, and may not have this ability.

However, considering that the ancestors of Song Luoshi's branch have a close relationship with the Xiliang Shen family, if it is the Shen family's doing, it is not impossible: Earlier, Xie Yiren once told Song Yixiao that in the troubled times before the founding of Darui, the lost land in the northwest was basically recovered by Xiliang Shen and Donghu Liu, but these two clans didn't know why, instead of participating in the competition for the world, they chose to understand Jiagui and return to the field after driving out Hulu, and three generations guarded the tomb!

Under normal circumstances, most of these two communities are not voluntary.

So it is not impossible to leave some back hands from that time in case the children and grandchildren recover?

Of course, Song Yixiao was willing to accept Song Luoshi's words, mainly because Song Luoshi just hoped that she could provide some opportunities to hug the thighs of Empress Wei and the crown prince - this was just a gesture for Song Yixiao, after all, she had a really good relationship with Empress Wei.

Since the request is not a matter of urgency and embarrassment, Song Yixiao didn't bother to investigate the flaws in Song Luoshi's words.

Looking back now, Song Yixiao can't help but suspect that the Song side branch actually fought early in the morning with the idea of changing the dynasty!

There is even the participation of the Shen family and even the Liu family behind the scenes!

It's just that until now, she is still not sure, who is the new monarch they support?

But she doesn't like this feeling of being calculated and used, not to mention the mother's family who is still testing and using each other, and her husband who is running around to protect herself, fools know who to choose!

Song Yixiao was thinking about things absentmindedly while doing needlework, and suddenly heard a sound of kicking under the corridor, and then the door was pushed open, and Jian Xubai, who had been bathed, came back.
