Spring Drunk Chang'an
Chapter 143 Am I a bit clueless?
While the Liu family courtyard was bustling with guests, in the Ningguo Mansion, Chunli Courtyard.
Xiao Chuo stood in front of the window with her hands behind her back, her misty eyes gazing at the past indifferently.
The object of his attention, Song, pursed her lips, her expression bitter but with a hint of relief.
The two stared at each other in silence.
After a while~~
"Ah~~" Song suddenly sighed, her eyes cast towards the blue sky outside the window, and she murmured softly, "It's already this hour, the Chang'an family must be very lively, it's a pity that I can't go and see~"
"Chang'an told me the other day that she invited a girl from the Duke of Qi's mansion. Miss Shi has a straightforward personality and is very likable. Unfortunately, her marriage proposal to Liu Wenbai failed. I have to avoid suspicion and it's not appropriate to invite her into the mansion."
"Changan likes her very much and always goes out with her. Today, I don't know how to have fun?"
Song's expression was full of fantasy.
Ever since she learned the truth, the Ningguo Mansion had changed from a home to a cage of imprisonment that consumed most of her life. She wanted to escape from it all the time.
only……
"Aunt, Grandfather and I have already decided on the time to take action... Come back with me tomorrow. Grandfather has something to tell you personally!"
Xiao Chuo glanced at her indifferently, understood the desire in her expression, and suddenly spoke.
Song's breath was choked and her whole body trembled slightly.
I can’t tell whether I’m afraid or looking forward to it.
She took a deep breath. "You, you...how do you need my cooperation? What should I do..."
"Let's go to Grandfather and discuss it together. Grandmother has something to tell you!" Xiao Chuo lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. In the end, she didn't tell her about Liu Wenrui's 'life and death dilemma'. Instead, she explained it briefly. After seeing Song nod heavily, he changed the subject and said, "I have something else to discuss with my aunt?"
"What's the matter?" Song was startled. "Your Highness, tell me!"
Xiao Chuo's face was indifferent, and she secretly clenched her fists, "It's about Liu Changan..."
"Chang'an? What happened to her?" Song asked hurriedly.
Xiao Chuo said, "Well, her brother has passed the imperial examination and I intend to find him an official position. Chang'an is also a daughter of an official family, so it's not appropriate for her to always serve her aunt."
"She is loyal and has helped me a lot. I want to give her a good future..."
For example: Enter the East Palace and be his.
"Your Highness, do you think so too? I've wanted to release her for a long time. It was Qingmei, Laishun, and Sanxi. They've all been with me for so many years. Without them, Liu Xiu's true face would never have been exposed. I'm still living in a dream, deceived into a fool!"
Song lowered her eyes, pursed her lips and said, "They are all my benefactors, especially Chang'an, a lovely girl. I wish she was my daughter."
"Once Liu Xiu and I are divorced, I will take Chang'an and his family away and immediately release her from the family. I also want to ask my brother to adopt her as his adopted daughter."
"Actually, I wanted to recognize her, but for her, being her brother's daughter has a better future."
"That kid deserves the best."
Song sighed softly.
Lips slightly curled.
The smile is warm and gentle.
"The adopted daughter of Prince Cheng'en?" Xiao Chuo's smoky eyes moved.
When Daxia was founded, Emperor Taizu adopted over a hundred sons to help him conquer the world, but he never made them kings. The status of adopted sons and daughters of officials in this dynasty was mediocre, but...
It's always a help.
The "girl" from the Cheng'en Mansion is much more "intimidating" than the sister of a fifth-rank official.
"I will help make this happen."
Xiao Chuo made a decision immediately.
"Uh~"
Seeing his serious expression, Song gave him a strange look and nodded silently, "Okay, Your Highness, I'll go to Rongxiyuan first and tell the old lady that I'll go back to Cheng'en Mansion with you tomorrow."
"Yeah." Xiao Chuo nodded.
Song stood up and said goodbye, going to Rongxiyuan to "ask for leave".

The Liu family was bustling with activity all day long.
Everyone was drunk.
Including Shi Xiaoyue.
She and Liu Changan stared at each other in silence for half a minute before Liu Sanxi pulled them out. The girl looked at their dejected faces and said, "Today is a happy day? Why are you looking so sad?"
"Today's affairs, today's joy, tomorrow's sorrow, tomorrow's tears, urgent eyebrows, focus on the present!"
"Even if something depressing happens, it hasn't happened yet, right? Why bother worrying about the future? Be happy today, or you'll be in big trouble!!"
The little girl just passed by the window and overheard what they said.
Miss Shi's biological father and stepmother were not kind to her.
But!! I found her a mansion.
The Bo family that Miss Shi is going to marry into doesn't seem to have much money.
But!! She herself has a beautiful face.
The husband that Miss Shi is going to marry doesn't seem to be very promising.
But!! Her dowry was fifty thousand taels of silver.
Ten miles of red makeup.
Fifty thousand taels of silver as a dowry!!
With such "silver" in your waist, even if you are married to a fairy at the end of the world, your waist will be straightened by the silver.
What is a man if he has money?
So what if my husband’s family has a bad background?
If you make her happy, a little money will show through her fingers, and you will treat it as spending money to buy her happiness. But if you make her unhappy, she will close the gate of the courtyard, lock up the dowry, and starve those girls to death.
Xiaoyue is a softhearted girl. She's a sweetheart in private, but soft-hearted to the outside world. If she marries a man who has everything and is strong in every way, it's inevitable that he'll find fault with her appearance. It would be better for her to find someone who's easy to pinch and manipulate.
but!
Life is lived by people. Xiaoyue's personality is that she doesn't like to argue with others, doesn't talk when encountering problems, and wants to hide when encountering difficulties.
It's difficult to live a good life.
You can't expect that everyone you meet is a good person and that all you see are flowers.
Liu Sanxi thought about it in his mind, but didn't say anything. He just pulled his elder sister and Shi Xiaoyue out of the house, poured them some wine, and tried to cheer them up with words.
Shi Xiaoyue was probably feeling a little depressed, so she drank both pots of rock honey wine.
She was drunk.
After the banquet, when she left, Xiong Zhen carried her on his back. Liu Changan looked at her worriedly, raised his hand to touch her burning face, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Xiong, I see Xiaoyue is very drunk, and you have to drive again."
"My father and I will take you back."
"No need." Xiong Zhen lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
He carried Shi Xiaoyue very steadily on his back.
He held her calves with his arms, his fists clenched tightly, without touching her body.
"But she is drunk. How can you, a man, take care of her?" Liu Changan frowned.
I was very hesitant.
Xiaoyue and Xiong Zhen should be in love with each other, but due to their status, they pretend to be ignorant and neither of them breaks the paper.
Xiaoyue is drunk now. Was it accidental? Was it intentional? Do you have any thoughts on exposing her?
She and her father went to see her off? Wasn't that a bit tactless?
However, Xiaoyue just said she wanted to get engaged, and she seemed to have accepted her fate. What if she was impulsive now~~
Even if they break up, they can't be together!
