After finishing the acupuncture, Song Shuwan left with the golden needles.
Behind him, Pei Huan slowly put on his robe. Even though the acupuncture had ended, he could still feel the pain, but it had to be said that this pain made him happy because it meant that his leg could really be cured.
At this moment, An San came in with a post: "Prince Ning, please come to the house to have a talk."
Pei Huan smiled slightly, but asked about another thing: "Have you found out the relationship between Prince Ning and Song Shuwan?"
An San looked embarrassed: "I'm still checking, but I don't know the result."
Pei Huan rubbed his fingers and suddenly remembered Liu Mei's previous accusation. She said that she saw Song Shuwan at the fireworks place in Mingzhou City a few years ago. Song Shuwan's name was Song Rou at that time.
At first he didn't pay much attention, thinking it was Liu Mei's nonsense, but now he had to focus on this matter.
"Find out whether there was a person named Song Rou in the fireworks place in the city a few years ago."
An San saluted: "Yes."
After a pause, he asked again: "Your Majesty, this post..."
"Throw it away."
An San said no more, turned and left.
An San, who left in a hurry, didn't notice that Song Shuwan, who had just left, suddenly walked out from the other corner. She frowned and glanced at An San's back, and then at the closed door behind her.
What on earth are Pei Huan and the emperor doing?
"The Crown Princess, the Crown Princess..."
At this moment, a series of shouts came, and Song Shuwan came back to her senses. She looked at Fei Yuan who was trotting over and was very confused. However, she took care of Pei Huan in the room and went over to him: "What happened? How could it be like this... …”
"Mrs. Hou invited the elders of the Pei family to come and said that you were bewitching the prince, ruining the reputation of the Hou family, and not caring about the safety of the people in the Hou family. They wanted to punish you according to the Pei family's rules."
Song Shuwan was stunned. Before she could speak, several people appeared at the entrance of the courtyard. The leader was Mrs. Hou, and several clan elders in the back...
Song Shuwan's eyebrows moved slightly. Except for the old man who was leading the group, the others all had unfamiliar faces. It seemed that Pei Huan had failed to settle accounts before and had made some other arrangements afterwards, otherwise these new clan elders would not have appeared.
Just as he was thinking about it, several people entered the yard.
Before Mrs. Hou spoke, tears fell first: "Elders of the clan, I am really... so miserable."
Song Shuwan: "?"
Bitterness, what is Mrs. Hou suffering from?
"What are you suffering from?"
The male voice from behind expressed the doubts in Song Shuwan's heart. It was Pei Huan who heard the noise and came out.
Mrs. Hou wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I..."
"Stay back."
The majestic voice fell, and the old man behind stepped forward, tapping the crutch in his hand on the ground. The dull voice seemed to fall on people's hearts.
He asked: "Pei Huan, will what I say be of use to you?"
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and turned to look at Pei Huan. She saw that the latter's expression was a little more complicated, but he said: "What the rich people say is of course useful to me."
"Since it is useful, can I take this woman away?"
The rich man followed the words and put forward his purpose. His cloudy eyes fell on Pei Huan, and the occasional flash of light hid his plan.
Pei Huan said calmly: "She is my eldest concubine. She is an elder of a wealthy family. Please pay attention to your title."
The rich man sneered: "The Crown Princess? She is indeed the Crown Princess, but her words, deeds, and behavior are a bit like the Crown Princess of the Hou Mansion? Ever since she entered the Hou Mansion, she has been in a state of turmoil. How can a human being be worthy of being the crown prince’s concubine?”
After saying this, the surroundings fell into silence.
Pei Huan smiled when he heard this, with a hint of sarcasm on his face: "She is not worthy? She is the Emperor's personally appointed wife, and she is also the concubine I married in eight carriages. How can I not be worthy? I, Pei Huan, a wealthy man. I respect you as an elder and I am polite when talking to you, but that doesn’t mean you can act arrogantly in front of me. Why do you have the right to act arrogantly in front of me?”
Two words of "impudence" in succession caused the rich man's face to darken instantly: "Pei Huan, are you trying to say that I am not qualified to take care of the affairs of the Hou Mansion?"
"You can take care of the affairs of the Marquis Mansion, but you have no right to interfere in Qingfengyuan."
Pei Huan made his attitude clear. His appearance made Mrs. Hou on the side open her eyes in shock, and then an unconcealable joy surged into her heart.
Pei Huan's appearance is tantamount to going against the elders of the Pei family. In this way, her step-son will be stable, and the position of the Marquis is destined to be her son.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Hou lowered her eyebrows and wiped the non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes from time to time.
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached a stalemate, Song Shuwan, who had been speechless, sighed: "This rich man, I think it is necessary for me to talk to you."
After hearing Song Shuwan's words, the wealthy man looked at her coldly: "I am just an ordinary citizen, and I am not qualified to talk to the Crown Princess and Madam Gaoming."
After being humbled in front of Pei Huan, he turned around and turned against her?
Realizing this, Song Shuwan's good temper disappeared and she said rudely: "You are indeed not qualified to care about me. In fact, you are not qualified to care about the affairs of the Marquis Mansion."
"presumptuous!"
Before the wealthy elder could speak, Mrs. Hou jumped out: "Why are you talking to the wealthy elder? He is the elder of the Pei family. As the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, how can you be so rude?"
Song Shuwan's clear black and white eyes fell on Mrs. Hou's face. She looked at the person without saying a word, which made Mrs. Hou's heart twitch slightly, followed by a surge of anger.
"What, you have a problem with what I said?"
Listening to the question, Song Shuwan sighed: "My daughter-in-law has no objection to what Madam said, but Madam seems to have made a mistake."
"What's the meaning?"
Mrs. Hou was stunned, feeling uneasy for no reason.
"The fact that you are talking about the Pei family shows that you know the status of the elders of the big clan, but we are from the Hou Mansion. When will the rules of the Hou Mansion be decided by the elders of the Pei family? Or... "
"Shut up!"
The sudden scolding interrupted Song Shuwan, and the Marquis strode over, looking at her and Pei Huan with a very ugly expression.
"This is the Marquis Mansion and the Pei family. As long as you are here for one day, you must abide by the rules of the house. If you have any objections, get out!"
Song Shuwan twitched the corners of her lips and turned to look at Pei Huan: "Prince?"
Pei Huan said calmly: "You can get out, but the position of the Marquis is..."
"Shut up!"
Mr. Hou scolded her again, and then directly pulled Mrs. Hou away.
Seeing this, the remaining clan elders could only focus on the big clan elders.
Time passed little by little, and the rich man said: "Pei Huan, you will regret it."
Pei Huan's empty eyes fell precisely on the face of the big clan elder: "This sentence, the big clan elder also said to me five years ago, it is the same sentence, you are the elder, Pei Huan respects you, and you It's polite to speak politely, but if you want to take advantage of me, you are wrong. Come and see me off."
