Chapter 9 Apologies
"You're crazy! It was not right for you to lead troops to besiege our government, and now you are pointing your sword at me, aren't you afraid that I will sue you for the crime of abusing military power and communiquing personal vendettas? ”
Xiao Zhensheng scolded angrily, after all, he had been on the battlefield together and had been an official in the same dynasty for many years, Xiao Zhensheng knew that he was not Song Chengrong's opponent.
"You can go and sue, even if you take my life today, I will take this evil breath for my daughter!"
"Lord Hou doesn't want your life, don't you want your daughter's reputation, and you don't want the lives of more than 100 people in the Hou Mansion?"
Seeing the two of them pulling arrows and crossbows, Wen Yuhua hurriedly opened her mouth to stop it, and seeing Song Chengrong's movements pause, she continued to add:
"Hou Ye threw Tingyu on the street so loudly, and sent people to surround the Guogong Mansion, have you ever thought that such a mess will cause any rumors in Shangjing?
If there is any rumor of Tinglan, then Tinglan's reputation will really be ruined! ”
Wen Yuhua said and added.
"Moreover, the second young lady in your house must also be affected by it, is it possible that the Hou Ye will watch your eldest daughter being pointed at, and the second daughter can't marry and die in the family?"
Although Song Chengrong is a hot character, how can he not understand these simple truths after being in the officialdom all these years.
When he came today, although he was overwhelmed by anger, he had the intention of breaking the net with the Guogong Mansion.
Even if he died, he didn't want the Guogong Mansion to bully her Lan'er.
However, Wen Yuhua's words made him have to calm down.
He really can't let his favorite Lan'er bear the infamy.
Song Chengrong looked back at Song Tinglan, who was half-lying on the soft couch, and the sword in his hand was still put down.
Wen Yuhua and Xiao Zhensheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But Song Tinglan's eyes also slowly drooped.
Sure enough, what her father cares about most is Song Tingyu's mother and daughter.
Otherwise, he would not have hurriedly picked up the two of them into the house when his mother's bones were not cold.
She will never forget that her mother stared at the door at the last moment of her death.
She knew that her mother was waiting for her father to come.
However, my father did not come in a hurry until the third day after my mother's death.
Less than a year after his mother's death, he married Chu Mulan and entered the door.
At that time, Song Tingyu was already one year old.
She was young at the time, but the memories were unusually clear.
She clearly remembered that on the day Chu Mulan got married, the embroidery patterns of her father's red wedding dress were as dazzling as the blood spit out on the day her mother left.
also clearly remembers that day when her father told her to get along with Chu Mulan well, and Chu Mulan will be her mother in the future.
I remember very clearly that my father hugged Song Tingyu and talked to Chu Mulan gently, and the three of them smiled happily, as if they were a real family.
At that time, she felt that she had no father, so she simply set fire to Xitang, and she was trapped in it.
And after her father rescued her, he slapped her hard, Chu Mulan carefully persuaded behind her, but the more she persuaded her, the heavier her father's anger became, and the more fierce his eyes looked at her.
Since then, she has never called his father again.
Time has passed so many years, and the two have rarely communicated over the years, even if they speak, they will quarrel without a few words.
She understood that all this was because Chu Mulan was obstructing it, but she was unwilling to break it.
Because she didn't believe that her father, who was wise and martial, had been on the battlefield for a long time, and was invincible, would not know Chu Mulan's character.
So that the estrangement between the two is getting more and more.
Now, even if she understands that her father has her in his heart, she can't be careless about his father, as always.
This is the knot in the hearts of the two, and she will never forgive her father for the rest of her life.
"Oops, it's pretty lively."
In silence, Xiao Mingyu walked to the courtyard with a person.
Through the open carved wood lacquer door, Song Tinglan looked at Xiao Mingyu wearing a black robe, the neckline of the robe was embroidered with silver silk flowing cloud patterns, a wide-brimmed brocade belt with dark patterns of the same color was tied around his waist, and only a white jade pendant was decorated around his waist, which swayed gently with his movements.
Along with him, his black and smooth, brocade-like hair was tied up with a simple white hosta, adding to his handsomeness and extraordinary.
Song Tinglan always knew that Xiao Mingyu was born very well, but he was still slightly stunned at this moment.
When Xiao Mingyu pushed people in front of everyone, Song Tinglan lowered her eyes slightly, so as not to let others find out about her gaffe.
"Today, I received a complaint from the people, saying that someone was making trouble and committing murder, and the official went to the court, so he was arrested."
Xiao Mingyu said and pointed at Xiao Tingyu.
"The official understood the cause and effect, and specially sent people over."
After he finished speaking, he looked around, and the faint smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to tell the other party, how is it? I'm great, come and praise me!
Xiao Zhensheng and Wen Yuhua's faces turned black.
Before Xiao Zhensheng came back, he specially instructed the people in the mansion to send Xiao Tingyu back as soon as possible, but he didn't expect to be met by Xiao Mingyu.
Thinking of Xiao Mingyu's personality of fearing that the world would not be chaotic, Xiao Zhensheng frowned slightly.
"The affairs of Chang'an Street will be handled by the Soldiers and Horses Division, when will it be your turn to take charge of the Nanzhen Fu Division!"
Xiao Zhensheng originally wanted to teach him a lesson about disrespecting his brother, but thinking of Xiao Mingyu's temperament, now that Song Chengrong was present again, he could only endure it alive.
Xiao Mingyu seemed to be waiting for Xiao Zhensheng's words, and immediately said: "We can manage the first assistant of the cabinet at the top of the town, and we can manage the private affairs of the back house, where is the matter of going to the capital that we can't control?"
I'm not just going to take care of this, I'm going to do it to the end. ”
After he finished speaking, he glanced at Song Chengrong.
Song Chengrong snorted proudly, "Now that the saint governs the country with benevolence, what annoys him the most is the misconduct of the courtiers, and the chaos in the palace leads to trouble.
After all, if one family is not governed, how can the world be governed.
Presumably, Grandpa Guo didn't want this to reach the ears of the saints! ”
"You!"
"Bastard!"
Xiao Zhensheng scolded angrily, "You dare to threaten your Lao Tzu!" ”
Xiao Mingyu was still standing in place, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were cold, as if he was silently confirming Xiao Zhensheng's words.
For a moment everyone was silent.
Only Xiao Tingyu got up in embarrassment, he took a deep breath, tried his best to calm himself, slowly walked in front of Song Chengrong, and bowed.
"The father-in-law is on top, the son-in-law did not think about it before, so that Lan'er was wronged, and almost caused a disaster, I hope that my father-in-law will forgive me and give my son-in-law another chance, in the future, the son-in-law will definitely take this as a warning and treat Lan'er well, and will never let her suffer such grievances again."
At this time, Xiao Tingyu no longer had the initial dizziness, although his stomach was still churning slightly, but he didn't know how much better than at the beginning.
So the whole person has regained his previous handsomeness.
He knew very well what the consequences would be for the Guogong Mansion if he didn't handle this matter well, so he immediately bowed down and begged Song Chengrong's forgiveness.
He was born well, and although his clothes and hair are a little messy now, his temperament is elegant enough not to lose his temper.
"Humph!"
Song Chengrong snorted coldly, "What are you apologizing to me for?" Are you hurting me? ”
Xiao Tingyu was stunned when he heard this, stepped forward and walked into the carved door, and bowed down to apologize to Song Tinglan gently.
"Lan'er, it's all my husband's fault this time, if I hadn't listened to the rumors and thought it was just an ordinary banquet, otherwise how could I take you there.
I swear, I never let you dance to the prince, this time let you be in danger, the husband's heart is like a knife, I can't sleep at night, I hope that the lady will forgive me, in the future, I will treat you well, and never let this happen again. ”
