Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore
Chapter 101 Enemies meet on a narrow road
Shen Yuanqing's heart was exposed by her words, and he instantly lost face. His face suddenly changed, and he raised his hand to his forehead and said:
"Ouch, my head hurts again, help me down and have a rest."
Upon seeing this, her son and daughter immediately stepped forward and helped her up.
Faced with a strong mother, the strict family rules are deeply rooted in the children's hearts.
As children, we dare not express our opinions easily without the mother's words. We treat our mother respectfully and dare not slack off in the slightest.
Seeing this, Hua Muxue stood up and said with concern:
"Aunt Shen, what's wrong with you?
Come, go and get the doctor."
Shen Yuanqing waved his hand and said:
"It's okay. My headache is an old problem. I'll be fine after a rest."
I have seen Song Wanyin's sharp tongue before. Even if I had ten mouths, I would not be able to beat her in an argument.
Instead of competing with her here, it would be better to give Hua Muxue a good beating while she is away.
No matter how much Song Wanyin disagreed, he would not dare to be disrespectful to Hua Muxue.
When passing by Song Wanyin, Shen Yuanqing glared at her fiercely. Her two children, who followed closely behind her, also looked at her meaningfully and left.
Hua Muxue was worried that something might happen to her in the mansion, and she would be unable to defend herself. She was about to follow her, but was stopped by Song Wanyin:
"Sister-in-law, don't worry about her. It won't be long before she's back to walking around the house full of energy again."
Hua Muxue looked at her seriously, bit her lower lip, and said with moist eyes:
"Sister, did you hear what Aunt Shen said to me just now?"
Song Wanyin nodded and said:
"I only heard Aunt Shen say that she wanted to put someone in my eldest brother's room.
Don’t worry, sister-in-law. She won’t get what she wants as long as I’m here.”
Hua Muxue relaxed her frown, held her hand tightly, hesitated for a moment and said:
"Sister, can you please not tell your brother about this for the time being?
I'm afraid he'll be distracted. He's been busy with work lately and has had very little sleep. I'm worried his body won't be able to handle it."
Song Wanyin was confident that she could deal with a profit-seeking villain like Aunt Shen, so she nodded and agreed:
"I know what to do."
At 3 p.m., Song Wanyin sent someone to deliver some precious medicinal herbs that she had asked a merchant from the Western Regions to bring to Xiao Jingheng, some for replenishing qi and blood, and some for clearing away heat and detoxifying.
She was very concerned about her senior brother's injury, so she asked a runner to take a letter to her senior brother and ask about his condition.
Soon, the errand boy came back and handed her a reply letter.
The letter said that he wanted to meet her at a teahouse and also found out the latest news.
In the quiet teahouse on the second floor, Song Wanyin and Xiao Jingheng sat opposite each other, with a bustling street downstairs.
Xiao Jingheng still had his eyes covered with a red silk ribbon. He could see things but could not look directly into the strong light, so he still had to cover his eyes when going out.
"Junior Sister, I have received all the herbs you sent me. Thank you for your concern.
I'm afraid my eyesight won't get better in a while, and the servants in the mansion are clumsy and don't know how to take care of people."
Song Wanyin understood the meaning of his words and opened her mouth to speak, but she saw him making tea for her smoothly.
what's the situation?
Can't he see?
"Brother, your eyes..."
Xiao Jingheng finally reacted and subconsciously knocked over the teacup in his hand, saying in annoyance:
"Alas, I can't even do something as simple as making tea now."
Jing Mo was trying to hold back his laughter so hard that his stomach hurt. It was like a frog's stomach, bulging and making gurgling sounds from time to time.
After his master returned home, every move he made was not like that of a blind man who could not see.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out why his master's eyes didn't work well in front of Song Wanyin?
Song Wanyin's eyes were deep and he said:
"Brother, what latest news have you found out?"
Xiao Jingheng wiped the tea stains on his hands with a handkerchief and said:
“Three days later, the rebel leader will sneak back to the capital, lead the remaining evildoers, incite the common people to rise up in rebellion, and attack the imperial palace.
I have already mobilized sufficient troops and horses, waiting for them to fall into my trap."
Song Wanyin's eyes lit up and said:
"Brother, can you please find an opportunity to speak to His Majesty and ask him to personally lead the troops to attack the remnants of the rebels?"
Xiao Jingheng frowned, feeling disappointed, and said in a low voice:
"Junior sister, you haven't let him go yet?"
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Song Wanyin immediately explained:
"Brother, you also know that Gu Qingchen and Jiang Lanyue are going to get married soon.
Jiang Lanyue has an unclear relationship with the rebel leader.
This matter still requires Gu Qingchen to step in and catch the adulterer in bed personally.
Taking advantage of their infighting, your troops can wipe out the remaining rebels.
Without even a single soldier being deployed.
Because I know that with Gu Qingchen's strength and ability, he is no match for the rebel leader.
Otherwise, you wouldn't be fooled by the other party without even realizing it.
"If Senior Brother comes out at the end and defeats the enemy with one move, wouldn't it be easy to get the honor?"
Xiao Jingheng suddenly realized it, and the big stone in his heart finally fell. He nodded and said:
"That's a good idea, I'll take care of it.
Just a few days ago, I also heard the news.
Gu Qingchen repeatedly asked the emperor for permission, hoping to redeem himself from his crime and personally lead troops to capture the remnants of the rebels.
Your Majesty was displeased with his actions and has been slow to express his opinion.
If I were to go and speak to His Majesty, perhaps His Majesty would listen."
After a stick of incense had passed, Song Wanyin left the teahouse first to avoid being seen with Xiao Jingheng by acquaintances, which would inevitably lead to gossip.
Unexpectedly, before he had taken two steps, he saw two familiar figures coming towards him.
It's true that enemies meet in a narrow road. We can still meet like this.
Gu Qingchen put one hand on Jiang Lanyue's waist and the other hand on her bulging belly, with an obvious smile on his face.
"Lan Yue, I have already asked His Majesty for permission to redeem myself from my crime.
Once I have achieved a great achievement and received the reward, I will be able to marry you in a grand ceremony.
I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you and your unborn baby these days. I will make it up to you and your child later."
Jiang Lanyue looked like a little bird, nestling in his arms, talking and laughing as they strolled on the street, looking like a loving couple.
"Brother Qingchen, my parents said those things to you because they were too concerned. You have to understand the feelings of a parent.
Let me ask you, which parent in the world would watch their daughter marry into her husband's family, be burdened with debts, and live a hard life?
I met with you in private just to let you know that my true feelings for you will never change.
In this life, I don’t ask for wealth and honor, I just hope that you and the children can be safe and sound, and that our family of three can live a happy life.
Also, have you really thought it through? Do you really want to lead the troops to capture the remnants of the rebels? When do you plan to take action?"
There was determination in Gu Qingchen's eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he raised his eyes and accidentally met Song Wanyin's eyes. He was mesmerized by her stunning beauty and his heart almost stopped.
is her?
Jiang Lanyue saw him walk and suddenly stop, causing her to stumble and almost fall.
Just as she was about to complain, she followed his gaze and her heart trembled violently. She said sarcastically:
"It's my sister. I haven't seen you for a few days. How are you doing?
It is reasonable for the younger sister to go and comfort her elder sister, but her body is getting heavier and heavier, and she has to stop and rest every few steps.
Brother Qingchen feels sorry for me and is afraid that I would get tired, so he does everything himself so that I don't have to worry too much. He even plans to arrange our wedding himself.
When the time comes, I hope my sister will be willing to come and bless our newlywed couple."
