Song Jingwei's affairs continued to ferment, and there were already rumors that the emperor was planning to move the Song family and Shouchang Hou's mansion. Shouchang Hou had been away for a few days, showing off his old face.
However, without Song Jingwei, the Shouchang Hou Mansion was an empty shell, with only a wealthy and prosperous title and no real power in its hands. Even if it approached Emperor Chen, it would be of little use.
The Shouchang Hou Mansion was filled with gloom and gloom.
"Mom, is there really no room for change in the Song family's cousin's matter?"
When saying hello in the morning, Lian Suisui asked Mrs. Qin.
"Can no one find out the truth? Why does the emperor let my cousin go to jail when he knows what the truth is?"
Lian Suisui actually had a question, but she didn't dare to say it.
If Emperor Chen really wanted to touch the Song family, why could she easily see Song Jingwei last time?
Moreover, he is still in the prison of Dali Temple. Song Jing didn't let her say it, and she was afraid of ruining his arrangement and held back her words.
Qin didn't look relaxed either.
"The Sacred Heart is unpredictable. It might be knocking the powerful people in the capital."
Killing chickens to scare monkeys, warning the powerful not to be arrogant due to favor, testing who dares to intercede for Shouchang Houfu, testing whether any ministers form cliques for personal gain...
The Qin family did not dare to make any big moves after asking for Song Jingwei's love once. Her father and brother had led the army for many years, and the lives of the entire Qin family depended on Emperor Chen's trust.
"Jingwei is a capable minister with great talents, and the emperor is not willing to take his life!"
That's what I think, but the current situation is confusing.
"Mom, I'll go to the temple to ask for a peace charm. I always feel uneasy."
Mrs. Qin was also anxious, but she couldn't show her emotions to others and let others take advantage of her.
"The snow hasn't melted yet. Bring more people and go slower on the road."
Song Jingwei's reputation has now successfully surpassed hers, and Suisui had to stop and refute him many times, but finally found that there was no need to refute the gossips on the street.
People who don’t know anything feel more confident that they have guessed the truth. They all think that they are the king of heaven, and the emperor must listen to them!
"Miss, we have to hurry up and hurry up, otherwise we won't be able to come back in the evening."
Lian Suisui reluctantly opened the car curtain and saw a slightly familiar figure on the roadside.
Not far away, Meng Shuang, who was wearing a wide-sleeved scholar's uniform, had his hands on his hips, one foot on the bench, and was quarreling with several scholars at the same table, regardless of his image.
"What do you know? Are Brother Song and Zhang Tang the same? In order to please Emperor Wu, Zhang Tang changed and compiled the law at will, just to send ministers who Emperor Wu didn't like to prison. Brother Song is fair and unselfish, even if they are relatives of the emperor. As long as the crime is handed over to Brother Song, Brother Song will dare to investigate and deal with it!"
"Why are those officials in the court who act according to the circumstances so desperate to suppress Brother Song? Isn't it because they are afraid of him?"
"There are many upright and selfless officials, but Brother Song is the only one who dares to be as ruthless as Brother Song. Heaven and earth have their own laws, and the court also needs people like Brother Song to intimidate them, otherwise the whole world will become the domain of those worms. , and how can we, the people, survive?”
"Don't think that Brother Song's matter has nothing to do with you. Without someone to bring order to the chaos, the order we abide by is just a way for others to manipulate you!"
Meng Shuang's momentum temporarily suppressed the others. It seemed that he knew something, but why did he feel a little weak when he spoke?
Have you finished taking the medicine last time?
Lian Suisui decided to go back and give him a few bottles of Shiquan Dabu Pills, otherwise he wouldn't have the energy to quarrel with others.
Seeing that Meng Shuang had convinced a few people, he took back his feet, straightened up, brushed off the wrinkles on his clothes and continued walking forward.
Before taking two steps, he stopped and took a long breath.
This scene fell in the eyes of Lian Suisui, who was observing him carefully.
He went out early this morning, walked and argued with people all the way. It was already half the morning, and he hadn't left the capital yet, but he was so tired that he almost couldn't straighten up!
"This is really...Brother Song is causing trouble in the front, and I will explain to him from behind..."
"Why are there no smart people in the world?"
The snow on the official road leading to Jingshan Temple is compacted. After the snow melts, the snow water melts in. The soil is as hard as a cement road. There is still a lot of snow on the shady mountain, and the wind blowing in front of you makes people hit hard. Shivering.
The front door of Jingshan Temple was deserted, with only a few carriages parked. It was even colder in the mountains, and the snow piled up on both sides of the steps was as thick as the knees.
"I heard that the side hall of Jingshan Temple collapsed due to snow. At present, materials cannot be transported and there is no way to repair it."
Xiaotao got the information while talking to Xiaosha Mi at the foot of the mountain.
"I heard that the female relatives of the Shouchang Hou Mansion are also on the mountain today."
Lian Suisui glanced at the foot of the mountain. There were no signs on those carriages. How did the novice figure out the identity of the other party?
"Perhaps she recognizes the wife of Shouchang Houfu."
This is the only explanation.
Lian Suisui thought it was a lady from one of Shouchang Hou's mansions, but he didn't expect it was just a few girls.
The person kneeling in the hall to pray was not Song Jing's biological sister Song Jiyue!
"Lucky Moon Watch..."
"Who am I supposed to be! Isn't this the second young lady of the Shouchang Hou Mansion, here to pray for your brother who is about to be executed?"
Lian Suisui paused and looked at the girl who spoke.
A girl of fifteen or sixteen years old wears a bright red cloak, with red lips and white teeth, sassy and flamboyant.
What he said was very vicious.
"It's useless to beg anyone. The Marquis of Shouchang has already gone to the Emperor to beg you, and the Emperor has not given you the face of the Marquis of Shouchang. If I were you, I wouldn't even dare to go out! How shameless!"
Song Jiyue's eyes were sore from being squeezed.
"I have no enmity with Miss Guo Er. Why should Miss Guo be so aggressive?"
Guo Ningyun burst out laughing.
"Who says we don't have any grudges? Your brother offending my sister and brother-in-law is equivalent to offending our prime minister's office. Miss Song Er won't think that what your brother did has nothing to do with you, right?"
"Miss Guo, don't bully my sister!"
Only then did Guo Nigyun see Song Xiaolan next to Song Jiyue and let out a sigh.
"Is a concubine worthy of talking to me?"
Song Xiaolan was frightened to tears with just one sentence. Guo Ningyun pursed her lips, looked left and right with an exaggerated expression, and said sarcastically: "It's amazing, you are so good at crying. If others see it, they will think that I am touching you!" I’m just trying to flatter you, you’re so fragile, why don’t you just hide in your own yard and don’t go out!”
"Miss Guo Er, don't go too far!"
Song Jiyue protected Song Xiaolan behind her, "How can you bully us?"
"Hey, are you finally angry?"
Guo Ningyun rolled her eyes, but didn't say anything more extreme.
"I'm telling the truth. Our two families have a feud. Do you still need me to talk to you properly if we meet?"
Song Xiaolan pulled Song Jiyue's sleeve, tears falling on her body like broken threads.
Song Jiyue also annoyed her by crying at every turn, but no matter how much she annoyed her, she would still protect her face outside.
"My third sister is thin-skinned, you scared her."
Guo Nigyun was speechless, pointing at Song Xiaolan who was hiding behind her and said: "Be careful about raising a white-eyed wolf..."
"Forget it, I won't tell you, it's boring."
There was a conflict, but it did not develop. Lian Suisui breathed a sigh of relief.
Guo Ningyun is the second daughter of the prime minister's house. The eldest sister is gentle and virtuous. She married Prince Yun as the royal concubine. It is normal for her younger sister to be a little domineering.
As for the feud she said between the two families, Lian Suisui probably came to trouble Song Jiyue this time when the Hou Guan case that Song Jingwei uncovered implicated the Prime Minister or Prince Yun.
"Cousin Jiyue."
Lian Suisui crossed the threshold and walked to Song Jiyue.
"Cousin Suisui!"
Song Jiyue said in surprise, "Why is my cousin here?"
Guo Ningyun turned around and saw Lian Suisui, her expression became interesting.
