The Mansion of the Marquis of Changqing.

Liu Wanhai, the Marquis of Changqing, was sitting in the courtyard reading a book, but saw the eldest son hurrying back home with the younger son who had been beaten and his nose was swollen.

Liu Wanhai frowned unhappily, "Liu Qing, when will your impatient temperament change?" ”

"Dad, big brother beat me for no reason!"

As soon as he saw his father, the youngest son Liu Hong began to complain with a handful of snot and tears.

He was so aggrieved today.

What did he do? He didn't do anything!

Isn't it just a conversation with a beautiful woman and a couple of sentences? Is that a thing?

Compared with the second generation of those who directly robbed the people's daughters on the street in the imperial capital, he Liu Hong can already be regarded as a decent gentleman, and this big brother beat him indiscriminately.

Even if that woman has an extraordinary background, she won't beat people to death because of a few words, right?

Liu Wanhai glanced at his youngest son, ignored him, but looked directly at Liu Qing, "Let's talk about it, what happened?" ”

Liu Qing looked serious and said in a deep voice: "The daughter of the Song family has returned to Beijing. ”

"The Song family?" Liu Wanhai was stunned, "Which Song family are you talking about, the Song family in the Ministry or the one in Yushitai?" ”

"Hereditary Xuanyi Guard, Song Family!"

As soon as these words came out, Liu Wanhai immediately got up, "Song Qian is back?" Did her brother come back with him? ”

"I don't know!" Liu Qing shook his head, "I only saw Song Qian, as for Song Xuan, I didn't see it." ”

Liu Wanhai pondered for a moment and said, "According to the information collected, Song Qian has been sticking to her brother since she was a child, and since she has returned to Beijing, then Song Xuan is estimated to have almost arrived in the imperial capital."

Coming back at this time period, it seems that the rumors in the imperial capital are true, if there is no accident, the position of the commander of Xuanyi Guard will fall on this person. ”

Liu Wanhai paced back and forth in the courtyard, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, he turned his head to look at the youngest son standing on the side, and his eyes instantly became calm, "Your eldest brother won't beat you for no reason, you kid, didn't you provoke this brother and sister?" ”

"Father is really discerning!" Liu Qing sneered, "The little brother is really amazing, he surrounded the Song family's concubine on the street and teased in public.

If I hadn't arrived in time to beat him up and apologize, I would have been in a big trouble today. ”

"That's true!"

Liu Wanhai's eyes flashed with a cold light, kicked Liu Hong away, and said angrily: "Something that is not enough to succeed and more than to lose, my Liu family almost caused a disaster because of you!" ”

He looked at Liu Qing with palpitations, "You have done a good job in this matter, although my Liu family is considered to be a high and powerful person in the court, but compared with the commander of Xuanyi Guard, it is not a star and a half."

By the way, after you apologized, what was Song Qian's attitude? ”

Liu Qing recalled the situation at the time and said: "She and I are also old acquaintances, she gave me a face, and the matter was revealed." ”

"It's a pity!"

Liu Wanhai felt a little regretful, "This time I gave you face, a little friendship when you were young, this bit of affection is completely exhausted, and it is a pity to waste it on Liu Hong." ”

As he spoke, he looked at his eldest son with some expectation, "This daughter of the Song family has never been married so far, do you think that if you pursue her, is there a chance?" ”

Liu Qing laughed at herself, "Father, don't laugh, I still know how many pounds and taels I have."

Not to mention anything else, there are more sons of princes in the imperial capital who are worried about Song Qian, and I don't think I have any hope.

Besides, I've already married a wife, and I can't do anything about divorce and remarriage! ”

Liu Wanhai just mentioned it casually, and he didn't have any plans, so he immediately stopped mentioning the matter, but said: "Although Liu Hong caused trouble, he also gave my Liu family an opportunity to contact the Song family. ”

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, and said tentatively: "What does my father mean?" ”

Liu Wanhai smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Break his leg, prepare a big gift, and go to Song's house early tomorrow morning to make amends!" ”

"For a family like the Song family, there is no suitable reason, and it is taboo for the prince to visit without permission.

But now it's different, Hong'er did something wrong, and I, as a father, went to the door to make amends, which is reasonable, and no one can say anything.

Now in the imperial capital, there are many families who want to have a relationship with the Song family, but they can't find a suitable reason, but I didn't expect that such a good thing fell on my Liu family. ”

When Liu Qing heard this, a look of admiration appeared on his face.

The younger brother got into trouble, and he was in a hurry, but his father could see the opportunity from the crisis, and this skill was something he couldn't learn.

"That's right!" Liu Wanhai's words changed, "I heard that Song Xuan hasn't married a wife yet, right?" ”

Liu Qing nodded, "Song Xuan is indeed unmarried. ”

Liu Wanhai said with a smile: "Your little sister, who is twenty-eight years old, is just waiting to be married, and the daughter of my Hou Mansion is married to him, which can be regarded as a good match."

You and Song Xuan are not much different in age, and it is easier for young people to get along with each other, after meeting him tomorrow, you will find an opportunity to explore his tone.

If this matter is successful, it can protect my Liu family's century-old foundation, and there is no room for sloppiness! ”

Liu Qing hesitated for a moment, and wanted to open his mouth to tell his father, Song Xuan cultivated to a high position at a young age, what kind of woman can't get it?

Although he is good at the Changqing Marquis Mansion, he is not the top group of magnates in the imperial capital, even if he wants to marry, his Liu family does not have much chance.

After pondering for a while, he still didn't open his mouth to refute his father's meaning.

Try it, you have to try it if you succeed or not, what if it does?

Xuanyiwei commanded him to become his brother-in-law, in the future in this imperial capital, who is his Liu family afraid of?

To put it mildly, even if it is the succession of the Son of Heaven, the opinions of the commander of Xuanyiwei must be considered!

In a few words, the father and son determined the process of tomorrow's visit and the gift list of apologies, as for Liu Hong, who was lying on the ground trembling and waiting for his leg to be broken, neither of them cared about his opinion.

Who cares if you want to break your leg or not, in front of the interests of the family, you have to break it if you don't want to!

......

After getting out of the carriage, Song Qian pushed open the door.

"Dad, mother, I'm back!"

Sa Huan's voice sounded in the Song family's compound, and Song Yuanshan, who was drinking tea, heard his daughter's loud voice, and a sip of tea squirted out directly.

"Your father and I are not deaf, so you don't need to be so loud!"

For this daughter, who is very smug and has no ladylike image, Song Yuanshan has given up preaching.

Whatever she does, anyway, there is no shortage of food for her at home, and there is no need to worry about the hereditary golden rice bowl.

Li Mochou followed behind Song Qian, looking around a little timidly.

On the way by carriage, she heard passers-by whisper that the people who live in this area are all ruthless characters who kill people without blinking, and the envoys of Lord Yama in the world.

Even though she knew that this was Master's home, she was still instinctively afraid.

Master always feels unreliable, and the reliable master is not there, and the first feeling given to her by this place is that she may be gagged out at any time!
