Chapter 166 Song Chengyan Wants to Propose Marriage
After leaving the Marquis' Mansion, Wang Xiaomei ignored what Song Qianning said. She went straight to Prince Huai and cried to him that she had been kicked out of the house by the Marquis' family.
He even said that the Marquis's Mansion wanted to please Song Qianxue, so they drove her out. Prince Huai comforted her and said that after her identity was announced in the future, he would let Concubine Shu find a way to make her a concubine.
Wang Xiaomei was a little unhappy when she heard that she was a concubine, but she didn't say it clearly. She just euphemistically said that she would be bullied by Song Qianxue if she became a concubine.
After all, she and Song Qianxue had always been at odds in the Marquis' Mansion. Prince Huai told her not to worry, as with Concubine Shu around, Song Qianxue wouldn't dare to do anything.
Prince Huai even promised that Concubine Shu would find a way to deal with Song Qianxue, and the position of the second imperial concubine would eventually be hers.
Wang Xiaomei was so pleased after hearing this that she lived peacefully in the palace for the following days. Prince Huai also told the princess the truth.
The princess did not expect that after Xiao Noning left, another Wang Xiaomei came. The princess firmly disagreed to disclose Wang Xiaomei's identity.
The two had a quarrel over this matter, and the Princess of Huai was in a stalemate with the Prince of Huai for several days.
On the ninth day of the emperor's recuperation, the Huai Palace was raided. Except for the Huai Princess and her two children, all the others were thrown into jail.
Wang Xiaomei, who had just been enjoying the luxury in the palace for a few days, was suddenly handcuffed and shackled by the soldiers who broke in. She panicked and when she was being escorted out of the palace, she shouted that she was not from the palace and they could not arrest her.
The person in charge of the arrest checked the list of criminals and thought that the wrong person had been arrested. He was hesitating whether to release Wang Xiaomei.
Princess Huai snorted coldly, indicating that this person was the biological daughter of Prince Huai, who had just returned home to trace her ancestral roots.
When the leader heard what the princess said, he waved his hand and the soldiers took them away immediately.
The imperial decree came down that all the people in the Huai Palace would be beheaded in public at noon tomorrow. Wang Xiaomei, who was imprisoned in the prison, was completely panicked at this time.
She kept shouting that she was wrong, she was not the daughter of Prince Huai, she was pretending to be the daughter.
But the prison guards thought she was just afraid of death and ignored her.
It was not until then that Wang Xiaomei remembered the kind advice given by Song Qianxue and Song Qianning. She should not be greedy. It was obvious that on the day she left the Marquis' Mansion, Song Chengyi sent someone to give her another 200 taels of silver notes.
If she had not been greedy, she could have lived a stable life for the rest of her life with the three hundred and fifty taels of silver. She regretted it so much. If she could do it again, she would definitely not choose to be the daughter of Prince Huai.
If she had begged to stay in the Marquis' Mansion at that time, would she be able to become the second lady of the Marquis' Mansion like Song Qianxue?
After all, doesn't Song Qianxue have no blood relationship with the Marquis' Mansion? Isn't she still the eldest daughter of the Marquis' Mansion? Grandmother, father and mother have always been tolerant, right! The Marquis' Mansion will definitely not stand by and watch her die.
After figuring this out, Wang Xiaomei shouted that she wanted to see the Marquis of the Marquis' Mansion, and that the Marquis could prove that she had no relationship with Prince Huai.
The corridor of the prison was filled with Wang Xiaomei's screams, but no one paid any attention to her even though she screamed at the top of her lungs...
At noon on the second day, all of Huai Wang's party members were beheaded. When everyone in the Marquis' Mansion learned that Wang Xiaomei was also among them, they sighed.
Jiang finally couldn't bear it and proposed to collect Wang Xiaomei's body. Everyone agreed as they had lived together for more than two years.
The old lady asked Nanny Lin to buy a better coffin so that Wang Xiaomei could be buried properly.
The Song family had dinner in the side hall. Song Chengyan hesitated for a long time and finally spoke: "Grandmother, father and mother, I would like to ask you to go to Minister Ling's house to ask for marriage..."
Song Chengzhou smiled knowingly. His elder brother, who was always taciturn, finally spoke out.
Song Chengyi's eyes lit up: "Brother, you are finally willing to speak?? I thought you would wait until Sister Ling discussed marriage with someone else before you got anxious!"
Ever since Song Chengyi found out that Ling Bai's second sister was his future sister-in-law, he was getting anxious because he hadn't seen any movement from his eldest brother.
Fortunately, the two of them often went to the opera house to watch plays, and he took great pains to secretly arrange for the two to sit together every time, and also instructed the waiters to make sure that the drinks, fruits and vegetables were served correctly every time.
After a few interactions, the two became familiar with each other. During that time, he and Ling Bai deliberately arranged a few good brothers to stand next to the eldest brother and deliberately said that they wanted to marry the second young lady of the Ling family.
These big brothers finally couldn't sit still anymore. Speaking of Ling Bai, Song Chengyi was very helpless! The day before yesterday, Ling Bai said that he wanted to break up with him.
He didn't know what was wrong with Ling Xi. She suddenly said that she liked him. This scared him. He had been subconsciously avoiding her for more than half a month.
Who knew that she could always find him through any means? He felt as if Ling Xi had placed a tracker on him.
The day before yesterday, she was so bold that she kissed him on the cheek when he wasn't paying attention. This made him take three steps back. In the end, she left without saying anything, and he looked puzzled.
When he turned around, he saw Ling Bai looking at him with fiery eyes, and his heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Oh my god, it turned out that Ling Xi kissed him because Ling Bai was behind him.
He couldn't clear himself even if he jumped into the Yellow River. Ling Bai didn't even listen to his explanation. He rushed up and punched him, then said he was breaking up with him and left.
He really killed him wrongly...
Song Qianning didn't expect that her elder brother would take the initiative to propose to marry Ling Yanran today. This is really a rare opportunity!
Song Qianning said happily: "Brother, it's great! You finally got it! Mother, you see my brother has already mentioned it, why don't you come over and ask for marriage tomorrow!"
Jiang looked at Song Qianning and said with a smile: "Ning'er, such a big thing as coming to propose marriage cannot be taken lightly. Let me discuss it with your grandmother..."
Song Qianning was so anxious that she said quickly, "What is there to discuss? You don't know how many people like Sister Ling. I heard that the people who came to propose marriage are almost lining up to see the door of the Ling Mansion. You are still here saying that you want to discuss it. It's not easy for the eldest brother to find a girl he likes. If you miss this opportunity, you will never get it again..."
Song Qianxue also agreed: "That's right! Grandma, mother, if someone else really decides to take him away first, what will big brother do?"
Song Chengyi also nodded wildly: "That's right! That's right!"
Song Boyan knew his eldest son best. If he didn't really like her, he would rather be alone for the rest of his life than take the initiative to ask for marriage. It seems that he really likes her.
Don't let it be like Ning'er said, that another matchmaker gets there first, because then it will be too late to regret it.
"Mother, Madam, you should send a matchmaker to propose marriage as soon as possible! Chengyan is already grown up, and he has been with me in the military camp. It's rare for him to meet someone who understands him. If we miss this opportunity, this kid might never get married!!"
As Song Boyan spoke, he began to laugh. Song Qianning and the others also nodded and said with a smile, "Yes, yes."
When the old lady heard that he would never marry, she was so upset that she immediately asked Jiang to get the matter done the next day. Jiang smiled and nodded to show that she understood.
Song Qianning lay in bed at night, unable to fall asleep for a long time. Her eldest brother had found a lover, and her eldest sister and the second prince also had good destinations.
As for the third brother! Yesterday she went to the opera house and heard that Lingxi had been pursuing the third brother recently. This was something she had never expected, but it would be nice for such a beautiful woman to be the third brother's wife.
With the fall of Prince Liang and the death of Prince Huai, all obstacles threatening the Marquisate were removed.
As someone who can predict everything, she will inevitably become a threat in the eyes of the emperor one day, so it is best for everyone if she leaves now.
When the time comes, she will ask Han Xun if he has a good way to create a death shield. It will be soon, and there are only three days left before the time she and Han Xun have agreed upon.
I haven't seen him for almost a month. I miss him a lot...
