At this time, in the Yanguo Mansion, Song Yixiao had just sent off visitors.

She went back to the inner room to remove her makeup, but before she sat down, the little maid ran into the courtyard with her skirt and told her that Song Luoyan was knocking at the back door and wanted to come in and talk to Song Yixiao.

"Ask her to sit less in the small flower hall, and say I'll freshen up and go over." Song Yixiao looked at the bronze mirror and ordered, "Sister Luo Yan is my clan, and she is the only one who comes, if she dresses up grandly, it will look out of sight - remove these hairpin rings, comb a fallen horse bun, and just insert two steps to shake!" ”

A moment later, the worried Song Luoyan waited for her in the small flower hall.

"Sister, hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?" Song Luoyan saw Song Yixiao come in, and hurriedly got up to greet her, Song Yixiao waved her hand to ask her not to be polite, after these polite words, the two of them sat down together, and dismissed the subordinates, she split her head and asked, "I just went out, so I heard a message from the people below, saying that my brother-in-law left the palace half a day ago, but I don't know why I didn't go back here, but went to the Qingjiang County Lord's Mansion!" ”

Song Yi frowned with a smile and said, "And then?" ”

"Then, it didn't take long for the county lord of Qingjiang to go out in the car and go to the palace." Song Luoyan said, "The county lord didn't stay in the palace for long, and then returned to the county lord's mansion - now my brother-in-law is still there!" ”

"It seems that your brother-in-law's intercession for me didn't go well, so I went to ask my eldest sister for help." Song Yi smiled when she heard this, exhaled, and said with a wry smile, "And the eldest sister's trip seems to be in vain, otherwise your brother-in-law should come back immediately to report the good news." ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Song Luoyan, who was frowning, "It's just right that you turn back, if you don't come, I'm also about to send someone to send Xuan'er back to you." ”

"Who does my sister think of me?!" Song Luoyan heard this, but immediately said abruptly, "Am I here to take Xuan'er back?!" What's more, the godmother is also a mother, and my sister said this by herself! Xuan'er, his own mother is not in the imperial capital, and he needs your stepmother to teach him carefully, my aunt, occasionally takes him to live in the house, and it is okay, take him away at such a juncture, what has become of our branch? ! ”

"Don't be angry!" Song Yi smiled and said gently, "I know you are not cold people!" But please also think about Xuan'er: this child is talented and intelligent, and he will definitely be able to make a difference in the future! How sorry would it be if I was ruined? Originally, we were such a flourishing clan in the Southern Song Dynasty earlier, but now? I won't talk about it, it's a question of whether I can get through it this time! It's the side branch, and over the years, I haven't seen a single clansman except yours! ”

"So the current Song family, how can they afford to waste their descendants like this, or are they children and grandchildren with good qualifications?"

"At the beginning, my brother trusted me, so he gave Xuan'er to me as a righteous son."

"It's a pity that I have failed his trust, and I already feel ashamed, how can I drag Xuan'er down again?"

"I won't tell you, it's not just Xuan'er, I'll send my sister back to Hengshan Wangfu later-if you are willing to think of me, you can help take care of Chaoping in the future!"

And he said, "Besides, as a member of the same clan, I haven't actually helped you much. ”

"Is my sister helping us less?" When Song Luoyan heard this, she immediately burst into tears and said sadly, "My sister refuses to take credit now, and I won't say it carefully." It's just that my sister also said that we are the same race, in this case, it is a matter of course to watch and help each other and support each other! Now that my sister is in trouble, if we don't care about it as a fellow clansman and take Xuan'er away, why would we fall into the well? Such a family, no matter how lush it is, will disperse sooner or later! ”

"Now that the Song family is thin, this person's heart will be scattered again, even if the bloodline still exists, Jiangnan Song will no longer be Jiangnan Song!"

The two sisters argued back and forth for a long time on the question of whether to send Song Xuan to Song Luoyan, and finally because of Song Luoyan's resolute attitude, Song Yi could only give up in the end, and only sighed: "I am used to being lonely in the Song family, and I don't know until today that I feel like a clansman!" ”

"It's also because Gong Ji Nan went too early, and the two generations of old lady Pang and Song Lu's mothers are not virtuous." Song Luoyan said angrily, "Otherwise, with my sister's background, how can I not be too noble, how can I suffer so much?!" ”

"Although the two generations of Jiangnantang's mothers are not virtuous, the side branches are still promising, and they can always comfort their grandfather's spirit in the sky!" Song Yi smiled and sighed, "Don't talk about this now, I'll tell you seriously: this time even the queen mother has been punished so heavily, you must know that the queen mother is not only His Majesty's wife, but also very trusted by His Majesty for the past two years, just saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the only living prince under His Majesty's knees, and the Queen Mother is still under house arrest, how can Your Majesty spare me?!" ”

She waved her hand to stop what Song Luoyan was about to say, "My husband is Your Majesty's cousin, so I think even if Your Majesty annoys me, he may not be angry with him - Chaoping should be able to save it!" Such results are already good. If you refuse to pick up Xuan'er now, it's the same when you come back. ”

Song Luoyan said excitedly: "This matter is obviously that Cui Jianpian is not right in front of him!" According to me, such a vicious woman should not have been included in the East Palace in the first place! Empress Dowager Cui and His Majesty don't know each other, how can you blame my sister?! ”

"Shh Song Yixiao hurriedly raised his index finger and pointed at his lips, and scolded lightly, "Don't say such things!" I'm worried that Your Majesty will be angry with you because of me! ”

"I really feel wronged for my sister!" Song Luoyan said, tears falling down her eyes, "Your Majesty is really unfair!" ”

Song Yixiao wiped her face with a handkerchief, and also cried: "The holy order is difficult to disobey, what can be done?" I only hope that Your Majesty will be magnanimous and don't be angry with Chaoping because of me, and my husband's future wife will be able to be tolerant and generous, and take good care of Chaoping! ”

"......" Song Luoyan whimpered for a while, as if she wanted to say something, but she held back and only forced a smile, "Sister, don't be so sad first!" There is a way that there is no end to the sky, maybe ...... Maybe my brother-in-law will bring back the news later, but His Majesty wants to punish you for a while? Look at the queen mother, she was just deprived of palace power and house arrest! ”

"You're saying that it's too early for us to cry." Song Yi smiled and said with a strong smile, "But I hope Your Majesty will raise your noble hand!" ”

The two comforted each other again, and Song Luoyan left.

After she left, Song Yixiao went back to the room to freshen up, squinted and thought for a while, called the bell, and said, "You send someone to ......"

After saying three words, he changed his mind again, "Forget it, although she just pressed it, she will tell me sooner or later, this will send someone to keep an eye on it, but it is a little family!" ”

The bell didn't know why, and said in surprise: "Madame? ”

"You send someone to clean up for Zhuo'er, and if something is wrong, send her back to Hengshan Palace." Song Yixiao frowned when he said this, "Why hasn't the Hengshan Royal Mansion sent someone to pick up Zhuo'er until now?" ”

"Have you forgotten that Concubine Xia also sent someone to greet you?" The bell reminded, "The person sent by Concubine Xia said that you have your own natural appearance, and you will definitely be fine, doesn't this just don't want to take the county lord back?" The slave maid listened to the people over there two days ago, although Concubine Xia was more talented than the fifth young grandmother over there, but in the end, she was young, and she was only a side concubine, and she couldn't control the scene. The old servants at the bottom are not very convinced of her, and the prince only respects her on the face and does not pay attention to it in private. So I've been a little anxious lately, I'm afraid that the one who wants Mrs. to be safe and sound the most is Concubine Xia! ”

After all, Concubine Xia's ascendancy is not due to favor, but because Hengshan Wangfu needs a capable hostess.

So if she is not capable enough, the end can be imagined!

Originally, it was very difficult to take care of the palace, and then taking Lu Zhuo'er, the lord of Xinling County, back, would be like making matters worse for Concubine Xia's current situation!

Song Yixiao frowned, she could understand that Concubine Xia didn't want Lu Zhuo'er to go back, but: "What about the prince of Hengshan?" I heard before that he led Guanyun into the palace to cry that his mother was wronged, why didn't he send someone to pick up Zhuo'er?! ”

When King Hengshan entered the palace, he remembered to bring Wei Mengying's young son, but he was also Wei Mengying's biological daughter, why was Lu Zhuoer forgotten by this father?!

"This ......" Bell was embarrassed for a while, and reluctantly explained, "Maybe Concubine Xia said some reason to coax the prince?" ”

"If the prince of Hengshan is such a coaxing person, Concubine Xia may not be just a concubine!" Song Yixiao sneered, but her heart became more and more difficult: Hengshan Wangfu has not come to pick up Lu Zhuo'er until now, it can be seen that even if Lu Zhuo'er is sent back, she will inevitably be left out in the cold!

Her younger sister is young, and she has been silent after being stimulated, and she has been coaxed for more than a year before she is willing to take the initiative to shout "sister", if she suffers any grievances in the palace, I am afraid she will not even sue - how can she rest assured that Lu Zhuoer will leave?

After thinking for a while, Song Yixiao rubbed his forehead and sighed, "Forget it, since the palace didn't come to pick it up, let my sister continue to live!" ”

The bell said timidly, "Madam, you'll be fine." In the end, the grandfather has entered the palace, and His Majesty has always valued the grandfather! ”

"My husband hasn't come back until now, so it can be seen that things may not be going well." Song Yi said noncommittally.

"Then you must have a way to deal with it!" Bell was also very frightened, she switched to Song Yixiao at the beginning, and the picture was the future, but now Song Yixiao looked at it as if it was going to be good, she was very worried, but seeing that Song Yixiao didn't plan to send her sister back to Hengshan Palace, she had a little confidence in her heart, and said secretly, "This lady is the biological daughter of Princess Wei, and she has no more eyes!" If she really didn't grasp this level, even if she knew that the eight county lords would be snubbed after returning home, she would definitely send the eight county lords back, after all, it was better to be snubbed than to be unlucky with her! ”

Now I can't stand it anymore, I'm afraid it's a test of the loyalty of the people around me! I can't tell her to get her a handle here! ”

It's just that the bell shook his spirit and decided to double his performance - but he didn't know that although Song Yixiao did have a hole card in his hand, this hole card fell on Song Luoyan's side.

At this moment, Song Yixiao was thinking: "Song Luoyan refused to take Xuan'er alive or dead, and kept saying that she was upset for me, and the spearhead was pointed at Your Majesty intentionally or unintentionally...... This is ...... meant"

She narrowed her eyes as if she thought of something.
