After Su Wan entered the house, she went directly to Fupingyuan. After meeting Wang, she asked Wang to share the fruits she brought back. As for what happened on the way, she didn't want to mention a word, so as not to worry Wang.
Wang asked a few questions casually, and then she talked about going fishing and picking fruits.
Mrs. Wang nodded and suddenly asked about other things: "The day after tomorrow, the Li family came over with a list of betrothal gifts. Grandma will ask you one last time, are you willing to get married?"
Because of the series of events between Su Ling and Su Fu, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but feel partial to Su Wan, her worry-free granddaughter. She felt a little guilty when she thought that she was going to marry Li Lin, a young man from a humble family who only had one official title. , I just feel sorry for her.
The Li family has set a time to come to the appointment on September 10th and officially celebrate the engagement ceremony. Once the ceremony is over and the engagement is made, the matter cannot be changed. There are very few people in the world who get engaged and then cancel the engagement, unless What is the reason that cannot be overcome, otherwise the engagement will not be cancelled.
For example, the Chen family broke off the engagement that day because the Yang family had ruined their reputation by drugging Su Ling and hugging a man together.
After something like this happened, the Chen family wanted to withdraw from the engagement. The family knew that they were in the wrong, so they had no choice but to withdraw. Otherwise, if the matter spread, it would bring a bad reputation to the girls in the family.
Hearing this, Su Wan straightened his face and said, "Grandma, this marriage is of A Wan's own wish. I thought Young Master Li was a very good person before, and after getting along with me these few times, Young Master Li also treated me very well. He was careful and meticulous in everything, and he didn’t dare to let me suffer any grievances.”
"Su Wan feels that there will never be anyone like Mr. Li in the world."
Mrs. Wang was slightly surprised, but she also breathed a sigh of relief: "Since you think so, I'm relieved."
She is afraid that if she marries someone unwillingly, she will be resentful and suffer for the rest of her life. If she is willing and thinks the other person is good, it will naturally be considered a good marriage.
"I have discussed your dowry with your grandfather, uncle and your father, and I will give you more."
Who wouldn’t want money?
Su Wan smiled: "Granddaughter, thank you very much, grandma."
"Okay, I'll talk to your father about this. You're tired too. Go back and rest."
"Yes, Ah Wan is resigning."
Su Wan was able to leave Fuping Courtyard, while Li Lin found a carriage and returned to the compound where he lived. Soon, someone found out what happened today and reported it to him.
"...The Song family wants to marry the Qian family and betroth the third girl of the Song family to Master Qian. Although this matter is not publicity, there was a charter a month ago."
"It turns out that the Song family belongs to the prince's faction. If the three girls of the Song family married into the Qian family in Lingzhou, the prince would also help. It's a pity. Who could have thought that the prince would be deposed one day."
It's something no one can imagine.
"The prince was deposed. Although King Dongjun came to balance the court, the Song family is the natal family of the deposed prince. King Sui has been resentful of him for a long time. Naturally, he will not let go of the Song family. These days, the Song family has Many close officials suffered."
"Therefore, the Song family had a plan in mind. They wanted to marry the third girl of Song to King Ming as a princess and surrender to King Ming to protect the Song family."
"In this case, the originally agreed marriage cannot continue, and the Qian family is not easy to get along with. If the Song family dares to go back on its word and let the third girl of Song marry another person, they will definitely be hit by the Qian family, and now The Song family's status is different from before, and they don't want to offend the Qian family."
Li Lin frowned: "So the Song family wanted Qian Ba to die in an accident. If the person dies, nothing will matter. It is normal for the third girl of the Song family to marry another person."
No wonder he fell into a snake den and met a robber again. Whether he was bitten by a snake or killed by a robber, it was basically regarded as an accident. Even if someone wanted to investigate, they would do so. Nothing happens.
"exactly."
Li Lin was speechless for a while. Although the situation of the Song family was a little more difficult now, in the matter of the prince, because the Song family was wise in protecting themselves, although it was not as good as before, it could still be saved in the end. They just had to be more cautious in the future.
I didn't expect that they would do such a murderous thing just because they married Song San to Prince Ming.
Li Lin was silent for a moment, and then asked someone to get out.
As the sky turned dark, Ju Song returned in a hurry and reported the subsequent events to Li Lin: "Those two people are fine now."
Li Lin nodded: "As long as nothing happens, please go to Jinning Duke's Mansion and ask someone to tell Miss Six about the matter."
Ju Song nodded: "Yes."
"Go ahead."
Ju Song said goodbye and left. On his way out, he happened to meet someone returning from a long journey. In the dim sky, he was tall and his face was bruised and swollen, with patches of red and blue. It was very scary.
Ju Song's eyes widened and he almost drew his sword.
"No, no, no, it's me!"
Ju Song frowned: "Why are you acting like this?!"
Yuanyou touched the wound on his face, and when the wound hurt, he took a breath: "That boy's attack was too harsh, my mother! Next time, I will beat him to pieces."
Seeing his furious look, Ju Song hesitated and asked, "Did you lose?!"
"What's the point of losing? No one wins, no one loses. Let's continue next time!"
Ju Song couldn't believe it: "Why, are you still fighting? It's time for you to come back. Don't forget your responsibilities. If anything happens to the young master, you won't be able to bear it."
Yuanyou is Li Lin's personal bodyguard and stays by his side on weekdays, while Ju Song is a member of the secret guard and protects him in the dark.
There are ten people like him, and the leader is named Jiuzhang. The following are: Xisong, Shejiang, Aiying (ying), Tuosi, Huaisha, Thinking of Beauty, Cherishing the Past, Orange Ode, Beihuifeng .
The person who rescued Chen Qi that day and was later sent to intercept Chen Qi was none other than Bei Huifeng among the secret guards. However, the word "bei" was unpleasant, so the word was removed and his name was called Hui. wind.
The people around Li Lin are named after the book "Chu Ci". Under the Chu Ci, they are divided into Lisao, Jiuge, Tianwen, Jiuzhang, Yuanyou, Buju, Yufu, Jiubian, Zhaohun and Dazhao.
Yuanyou serves as a bodyguard, Jiuzhang serves as a secret guard, Jiubian handles business, and Fisherman handles affairs with foreign countries. The rest have their own arrangements and perform their duties.
After Yuanyou was entangled by Yue Shuang, he went to look for You Zongzhi to fight, so Li Lin had no choice but to take out the two Ju Songhuai Sha from the secret guards and take them with him as bodyguards.
Ju Song said with a cold face: "You think about fighting with people all day long, but you don't know that something happened today. If the people here are coming for the young master, and you are not around when the young master is in trouble, what use will you have?!"
After hearing Ju Song's words, Yuanyou breathed quickly and his face became serious. After a while, he said: "This is my fault, so I will go and apologize to the young master."
