The princess is the only one in Xuanmen, and she is reborn to lift the lid of the prince's coff

Ever since the Duke said his last words, Song Wu found that Jiang Xing seemed a little different.

Lu Xiao and Lu Yuehe were busy comforting Mrs. Xie, but they did not play the same role as Jiang Xing did before.

"Madam, the Duke." Seeing that Xie was still immersed in grief, Song Wu spoke for the first time.

"Before I came, wasn't the Duke's Mansion also in the same situation? Now not only have you recovered from your illness, but General Lu Xuan and Prince Jin are still alive! At most, it's just a matter of concern for the Duke, so why should Madam be saddened anymore?"

Jiang Xing stopped thinking and couldn't help but look up at her.

This sour-faced girl actually knows how to comfort people?

That's the tone, it's a bit too harsh!

Xie was stunned when she heard this, and suddenly her mind became clear.

She stood up, walked to Song Wu and bowed to her.

"Madam, you are too kind to me!" Song Wu stood up hurriedly, not daring to accept the greeting.

"This is not a courtesy, but an apology." Xie regained the warmth she had when she first met her.

"I'm a person who knows right from wrong. Right is right, wrong is wrong, and it doesn't matter who you are. I misunderstood you at first, young lady. I apologize to you!"

Song Wu secretly marveled at this. It was no wonder that he could teach someone as clever and intelligent as Lu Yuehe by setting such a good example himself.

"I'm glad Madam, you understand. I don't need to go to the ancestral hall today. The Duke and the Second Young Master have just set off. Once Madam has rested, we can ask a Taoist priest or a high monk to perform a ritual for them, which will help them have a smoother journey!"

Mrs. Xie nodded. "Miss Song has helped our mansion so much today. It's no exaggeration to say that she is our benefactor. I have asked someone to prepare some thank you gifts. Please wait a moment."

Xiao Kui originally thought it was silver or something, and was very proud of the fact that the girl was so capable that she could receive such high courtesy from the Duke's wife so quickly.

Then Manager Lu came over with something that looked like a book.

It turned out to be a book...

When Song Wu took it and opened it, he almost fell over.

It clearly read: a three-story house on Haitang Street, a Yanzhi Building on Qingchuan Road, a villa on Qingxiu Mountain, a 5,000-acre orchard in Fengxian County, a silk shop on Yunshang Street...

There was only a ten thousand tael silver note inside, and the rest were all deeds to land, farmland, shops, farms, and even the indentures of the maids and guards...

Good boy! This isn't a thank you gift, this is buying property!

Jiang Xing glanced at it unintentionally and suddenly felt that the tens of thousands of taels he had spent yesterday were not enough to spend.

There is actually someone who can surpass him in extravagance?!

Seeing that Song Wu seemed startled, Xie stepped forward and said apologetically, "Don't blame me, Miss Song. I didn't mean to pry, but the rumors about you in the capital yesterday... I'm sure you're aware of them."

"Yue He went to the Duke's Mansion today, and I understand about 70% of it. If you don't mind, please accept this family business. It will be your retreat, and the Duke's Mansion will also be your support."

These words were said in a very subtle way, so subtle that Song Wu's heart felt hot and her eyes felt sore.

He cared so much about her and took her self-esteem into consideration.

"Madam, such a great gift, I cannot bear it!"

Song Wu actually felt that a few hundred taels of silver would be enough. A patriarch had told her before that this was the market price at that time.

Xiaokui's eyes instantly turned red.

Finally someone cares about the girl!

Song Wu: "Everything here is too valuable, but there is a female guard with strong martial arts skills that I need right now. I would be honored to accept her personal contract!"

Xie smiled knowingly, as if she had guessed that she would refuse. She took her hand, her eyes full of love.

"Actually, I have another selfish motive. You look so much like Siyu, I want to adopt you as my goddaughter. Would you be willing?"

Song Wu had never seen the late queen, so he didn't know how much he resembled her.

But she soon figured it out, and looking alike was probably only a small part of the reason.

Everyone in the capital knew that the Song family had welcomed Song Chuchu back home, so the Duke's wife must have been able to guess the awkwardness of her position as the eldest daughter.

This is so that she can have an identity and can accept her gifts with peace of mind.

Lu Yuehe came over and took her arm affectionately: "That's great, Yuehe will have a sister again in the future!"

Lu Xiao was even happier. In today's match with Song Wu, he looked at her as if she were a god.

Being able to become a family member is something I couldn’t ask for more!

"I already know your eldest brother Song Chushi, and now his powerful sister is also my sister. I'll scare him to death!"

Song Wu smiled.

She knew the Duke's intentions and felt that they were indeed destined to be together.

But her favor to the Duke's Mansion was not yet so grand.

After receiving such generous gifts, she was afraid that she would not be able to pay them back in the future.

Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Xing stood up and said, "Miss Song, you've heard so many secrets today. How can you let us feel at ease if you don't become one of our family members? Don't look at the Duke's Mansion's current glory. There are still many dangers to overcome. Do you really want to escape unscathed? Either leave your life behind or take your wealth!"

Song Wu frowned coldly. Threatening her?

But she really didn't think of this.

Xie glared at Jiang Xing, and a cunning look flashed across his face.

Song Wu could no longer refuse, so he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Xie.

Xie's eyes turned red again, and she choked up and said, "That's great. When Xuan'er comes back, we'll have four children again..."

Seeing that things were almost done, Jiang Xing's expression gradually became serious.

"Aunt, I came here today mainly for two things."

He glanced at Xiao Kui and Butler Lu, and Butler Lu consciously took Xiao Kui downstairs first.

"The first is to tell you privately that Brother Lu is still alive, and the second is my business."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense. Lu Xiao closed the doors and windows, leaving only the three people from the Duke's Mansion and Song Wu and Jiang Xing.

Jiang Xing: "I was rescued by Miss Song yesterday. Actually, besides being haunted by An Nian's spirit, more importantly, I was poisoned on the way!"

"Ah!" Lu Xiao and Lu Yuehe were immediately shocked, but Xie seemed to have guessed it long ago.

Jiang Xing continued, "I continued to carry the coffin back to the palace overnight because I wanted to take this opportunity to find out who was behind my death! The people who escorted me back to the capital were all my trusted confidants who had been in Longchuan for many years. Logically speaking, they would not do such a thing. But no matter what the facts are now, we cannot be too biased."

"I quietly left the palace today just to check in with my aunt and mother. I'm afraid I'll be sick in the mansion for the next few months!"

Xie looked at him worriedly and immediately understood the purpose of his visit.

"Don't worry, I will find time to go to the palace to see the Empress Dowager as soon as possible. She has been thinking about you for more than ten years. You can't just disappear if you can't see her! She can also go to the palace to see you..."

Then she couldn't help but ask, "You said earlier that your brother Lu is still alive, so he..."

Seeing that they were now discussing deeper secrets, Song Wu realized that something was amiss on his part, so he stood up and said goodbye to the Duke's wife.

Xie was satisfied with Song Wu's clarity, and asked the chief steward Lu to bring the female guard she had named at the beginning and take her back to the Bo's Mansion.

The female guard's name was Sang Luo, and Song Wu liked the name of the wine very much as soon as he heard it.

Holding the thick book, she took Xiaokui and Sang Luo into the spacious and comfortable carriage of the Duke's Mansion. Escorted by dozens of palace soldiers, they headed towards the Duke of Zhongyi's Mansion.
