These past few days, Princess Zhen Nan and the British Duke's wife have been acting strangely eager, while Su Da Niang has suddenly gained courage, and Chen Xiang has been staring at him with an inexplicable intensity. It all turned out to be because of this. First release oh dear
The current situation between China and Korea is at a stalemate, so these handwritten letters from Xingfu have become crucial evidence. The purpose of Princess Zhen Nan's visit was different from that of Xingfu... If Ye Jingchuan and Yuan Hong didn't have these letters, they would still be unable to escape punishment in the end. As for Yuan Hong, there is no need to say more - he has only one dead-end path; even Ye Jingchuan may not be able to preserve his life...
Chen Xiang naturally came for Xing Fu's sake, wanting to take back and destroy these letters, so that Xing Fu could rest easy.
But why did the British Princess He get involved in this matter? Song Chuyi lowered her head and thought carefully, suddenly remembering the relationship between Shen Xiaohai and Prince Duan in her previous life...
The third daughter rushed to Song Chuyi and bowed her head, saying sincerely: "Sixth Miss, it's not that we have ulterior motives, but this matter is of great importance. Our old lady thinks that these things may never be used in a lifetime..."
But unexpectedly, the Tartar troops actually broke into Tongzhou, and it was a sensation that shook the whole country, indirectly causing many people to focus their attention on this secret letter that should have been unknown to anyone.
"Now, I'm afraid the Chen family wouldn't dare to take our young lady in again......" San Niang choked back a sob, paused for a moment before continuing with difficulty: "Since Old Lady entrusted our daughter to Old Lady Song, we should hand these letters over to her......"
Song Chuyi couldn't help but want to laugh, San Niang had been by Old Lady Su's side for so many years, it seemed she had learned a lot of things. This hot potato would probably burn anyone's hands, she knew she couldn't keep it herself, so she simply took it out and exchanged it with the young lady of the house for a better future.
Song Chuyi raised her hand to stop her, looking at her with unreserved candor: "I'm afraid I won't be able to make the decision on this matter. You also know how important these things are, now it's not a lifesaver, but a death warrant."
San Niang was thoroughly convinced of Song Chuyi's calm and wisdom, but at the same time, she couldn't help feeling a little guilty and afraid. If Old Master Song and Old Madame Song didn't want these things and drove their own daughter out... then they would really have no choice but to take the road to death. Thinking about this, she felt anxious and wanted to persuade Song Chuyi to accept these secret letters. With a hint of urgency, she said: "Sixth Miss! Leaving these things with me is probably not safe. The old master and old madame have seen many things and their ideas are bigger than ours. You should..."
Song Chuyi had already taken a step towards the center of the courtyard, furrowing her brow to interrupt San Niang: "You are currently in the Bo Manor, it's not that easy for others to take your things. Let me go and report to Old Master and Old Mistress first, then I'll tell you the decision."
She looked at San Niang's face which suddenly turned pale, and sighed: "As for your family's young lady, since the old lady has agreed, there is no reason to go back on her word."
She watched as Green Dress Red Jade rushed out, nodded at Third Mother, and turned to leave the courtyard.
As soon as she arrived at the Ningde Temple, she saw Yushu and Yulan sitting anxiously at the door, and even Huang's nanny was sitting motionless under the corridor.
She was somewhat surprised, why didn't Old Lady Song's room need anyone to serve at this time?
She suddenly remembered that Song Chuning seemed to have come from Ningde Hall just now, and she felt a bad premonition in her heart.
It was just a moment of absent-mindedness, and her hand was suddenly held by someone. She turned around to take a look, and saw Song Yan tiptoeing, telling her in an unpleasant tone: "Sister, Father is back."
Song Yi! No wonder even Huang Ayi was driven out.
She knew that going in now would only make everyone embarrassed, so she thought for a moment and shook Song Yan's hand with a smile: "If that's the case, then A Yan will go with sister to have dinner at the main house?"
Compared to the calmness of his siblings, Song Yi was so excited that his face turned bright red, with bulging veins on the back of his hands, and he slammed his fists on the table, almost hysterically shouting at Old Lady Song: "Mother, what are you talking about?! What do you mean by 'Li's nature is inherently evil'?! She can't be that kind of person! It's impossible!"
If Li was really as what Old Lady Song said, not only did she deliberately let Cui discover their affair, but also bribed the midwife to cause Cui's difficult labor and death, and even hired someone to kill Song Chuyi... then what would she become? An accomplice in harming Cui? A helper who allowed her to harm her own daughter?!
He was more agitated than Li Lao Tai Tai, his eyes, filled with red blood vessels from traveling day and night, stared tightly at Song Lao Tai Tai, repeating again and again: "This is impossible!"
He wanted to say that the Cui family was framing him, but thinking of the Cui family's integrity over the past few years, he couldn't bring himself to shift the blame onto them.
Facing Old Lady Song's tightly pursed lips and increasingly disappointed eyes, he finally spoke out of turn: "It's Xiao Yi...Xiao Yi must have been dissatisfied with her mother for a long time, so she had the nerve to do something big. She must have heard some rumors and hated us..."
The things that happened back then were like a huge stone weighing on his heart, almost suffocating him at times. He was terrified, afraid that his daughter and son would find out the truth, afraid that his image as a loving father would collapse instantly in their hearts. But no matter how careful he was, this day had finally come, and it came so quickly.
Was it Li who killed Cui? Was the scene at Qingliang Temple also designed by Li? He suddenly felt that his two hands had lost their strength to support his body, and he leaned back in his chair.
Old Lady Song could no longer hold back her anger, her chest heaving violently as if she was about to spit out a mouthful of blood ----- Song Yi wasn't called back by them!
She knew his temperament, so she specifically instructed Old Master Song to call Song Jue out for a trip when the time came, and tell Song Yi the whole story from beginning to end. Then, after a year or two, or perhaps waiting until his term was over before returning to the capital, by that time Song Yi would probably have adjusted his mindset, and the thorn in the hearts of Song ChuYi and Song Xuan would be reduced a little.
But Song Yi unexpectedly knew about it one step earlier, and in order to save face, he even pushed the matter onto his daughter's body. She couldn't bear it and stood up, giving him a loud slap on the ear, scolding: "What are you talking about?! Do you know that your daughter almost died in Tongzhou?! You're pushing the matter onto her for the sake of your conscience... Eldest son, did your parents teach you nothing in the past?!"
A clear five-finger print appeared on Song Yi's pale face, he covered his face and looked at his mother, suddenly feeling a little amused, then he burst out laughing unscrupulously.
