The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?
Chapter 287: Fighting against human power
Xie Chengqian's army was extremely powerful and was feared by the enemy.
Every general has his own characteristics. This time, he has the rare opportunity to compete with Xie Chengqian. He will definitely spare no effort and use all his best skills.
This is a great opportunity to express gratitude.
Xie Yi's eyes suddenly lit up and he stood up suddenly, "You're right!"
Now he didn't bother to apply the medicine and hurried to the place where the competition was taking place.
Song Xiwan chuckled and shook her head.
Gratitude is really easy to appease.
On this day, Xie Chengqian challenged more than a dozen generals alone, and all of them were defeated.
The entire army took this opportunity to rest.
It was half a month later when I returned to the capital.
Song Xiwan looked at the familiar city gate, her eyes couldn't help but become hot, and she rushed back to the Song Mansion without stopping.
Being away from home for so long.
She really missed her father, mother and elder brother.
A lot of time was wasted along the way, so Song Xiwan did not inform the arrival date in advance.
There was silence in the Song Mansion.
Xu was still discussing the marriage with Chunxiu. Xiwan would marry in as a princess, so there would naturally be more formalities and etiquette.
Apart from the dowry, I wonder how Xiwan’s wedding dress is prepared.
These cannot be taken lightly.
Seeing that the lady was still frowning, Chunxiu comforted her, "Madam, don't worry so much. I think the prince cares deeply about the young lady and will definitely not let her suffer any injustice."
Xu knew all this very well. Although the prince had gone to war, Uncle Wang from Prince Xuan's mansion always sent people to discuss the marriage.
At that time, the situation of the war was still unclear.
Prince Xuan's mansion was still making preparations according to the original date, and Xu even asked Uncle Wang if it needed to be postponed.
Uncle Wang flatly refused, saying that the prince had repeatedly instructed him to prepare these matters on time before he went to war.
Xu had no choice but to cooperate with the preparations.
Unexpectedly, news came a while ago that we had won a victory.
Xu couldn't help but be surprised.
Did the prince already anticipate that he would rush back on the wedding day?
This did indeed prove that the prince really cared about Xi Wan, but Xu still sighed, "Even though this is the case, I still want to do something for Xi Wan. I don't know when she will come back."
"Madam..."
Outside the door, a servant came running in, his voice changing.
Xu looked up when she heard the voice, but before she could ask anything, she saw a familiar figure jogging in from outside.
She stood up suddenly with excitement!
"Xiwan!"
The tears that were brewing in Song Xiwan's eyes could not be held back and flowed out.
She hugged her mother tightly.
"Mother, I'm back."
Xu still felt a little unreal. She hugged Xi Wan and murmured, "Why did you come back so suddenly? I wonder if I was hallucinating during the day."
Song Xiwan distanced herself from the two of them so that A Niang could see her face clearly.
"No, I'm really back."
Only then did Xu confirm that she was not mistaken. The joy in her eyes could not be concealed, and she quickly pulled her aside to sit down.
She touched Xiwan's face, looked at it carefully and said, "You've lost weight."
Song Xiwan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "No way."
On the way back, Xie Chengqian used this as an excuse to treat her to delicious food and drinks, which made her even heavier than when she went to the battle.
A Niang is clearly lying with her eyes open.
"No, Chunxiu, go tell the kitchen to prepare Xiwan's favorite food tonight, and have someone notify the master and the eldest master to come back early."
"Good good."
Chunxiu was so excited that her eyes were red. She ran away without giving Song Xiwan a chance to say another word.
Song Xiwan simply gave up the idea of stopping it.
She asked A Niang how things were going at home recently. The letters she received kept saying "everything is fine", so she had to ask in person to feel at ease.
Sure enough, A'niang's expression was a little evasive, but she covered it up in her words.
"It's fine, but I'm always thinking about when you'll come back."
Song Xiwan's eyes darkened slightly.
Is A Niang hiding something from her?
Song Xiwan did not ask any further questions. A'niang has always been like this. If someone refuses to talk, no matter how she asks, she will just bluff them away with a few words.
When she returned to Xingyue Pavilion, she asked Qiuzhu to find out.
Within half an hour, news came back.
"It's because after the cousin knew that the young lady was going to be engaged to the prince, she kept making trouble, pestering the first lady and saying that she wanted to marry the second son of the Qin family."
Song Xiwan raised her eyebrows, "Doesn't Xu Miaoyi want to marry my eldest brother?"
Qiu Zhu curled her lips, "Of course he did say that, but you know the eldest master's temper. He rejected my cousin in public, and I heard that my cousin cried bitterly."
However, the eldest son didn't even give her a glance and was busy in the court, leaving early and returning late.
No one dared to ask another question.
The Xu family has fallen on hard times now, and it's impossible for them to force this marriage on Xu Miaoyi. She has no choice but to set her sights on the young masters of aristocratic families in the capital.
This Lord Qin is the Minister of Personnel and has many children.
The most outstanding one is the second young master, who got a good official position this year and has a good appearance.
Qiu Zhu complained, "My cousin has a very good plan. She wants to settle for second best, but how can the Qin family agree to that? So my cousin wants to borrow your title as Princess Xuan."
Song Xiwan twitched the corner of his mouth.
If I remember correctly, Xu Miaoyi had given her many pigtails.
Qiu Zhu continued, "The Madam was already avoiding her, but my cousin was determined to follow her everywhere and even said things outside that made people misunderstand me."
Xu was so angry that she simply went back to her parents' home to express her attitude.
Except for Old Madam Xu, everyone else had some complaints about Xu. They felt that Xu's children now had a good future, so they were disgusted with her natal family.
The two sides had an unpleasant argument.
From then on, Xu said that apart from serving her parents, she would not take care of anything else.
Song Xiwan was surprised. "It seems they really are going too far. They've forced my mother, who values family so much, into this state."
"Yes!"
Qiuzhu also felt that her cousin was going too far.
Can this marriage be forced upon someone else?
Song Xiwan lowered her eyes. She knew without a doubt how sad her mother was. The person closest to her actually treated her like this.
"Please prepare a generous gift for my grandmother. Tell her that it's some of the gifts I brought back from this military campaign."
Qiu Zhu hesitated, "Should I tell the Madam first?"
Song Xiwan shook her head.
"I'm just honoring my grandmother. It's not a big deal. I'll also invite my grandmother to the wedding banquet. The rest is self-explanatory."
She has to earn this face back for her mother herself.
Seeing the girl's determined expression, Qiu Zhu hurried to do it.
When the Xu family learned about this, they were furious.
Xu Miaoyi gritted her teeth and said, "What does this mean, cousin? You only gave gifts to my grandmother and didn't even send the wedding invitation to us."
