Song Tangning was amused by the words of Princess Cheng and Xiao Yan, and said with a smile on her face: "If grandpa sees my aunt like this, he will blow his beard and glare."
Aunt Jiang couldn't help but add: "Even if the eldest lady saw it, she would still beat the princess."
Princess Cheng: "..."
Nunu mouthed, "My sister and father are not here, otherwise the Song family would not be so courageous."
Aunt Jiang paused when she heard this, and then her face became a little sad. Yes, the Taifu and the eldest lady are gone. If there are others in the Rong family, as long as the husband is here, how can the Song family dare to bully the girl like this? .
The weather is getting hotter and the carbon basin in the house has been removed.
Tang Ning was wearing a cotton-padded gown. Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became dull, Princess Cheng was also a little depressed and unhappy. She reached out to avoid the injury and hugged Princess Cheng's arm.
"My grandma is not here, but my aunt is here. She is protecting her, so Tang Ning is not afraid."
The little girl's voice was soft and sweet, which made Princess Cheng, who was still immersed in the depression of her loved one's departure, feel as if she had drank honey.
She cheered up and said seriously without the previous joke on her face: "Of course I will protect you. Although Governor Xiao taught the Song family a lesson for you this time, it can't end like this. It's a pity that There is no news from your uncle, otherwise it would be a huge blow."
"Uncle hasn't found out yet?"
"No, the people sent to Anzhou haven't come back yet. I think it will take some time to check."
Xiao Yan sat aside and looked at the two aunts and nephews who were talking: "The princess said that Prince Cheng went to Anzhou because of the Song family's daughter?"
Princess Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, I suspect there is something wrong with her identity."
She has no good impression of the Song family now, especially after the old godly wife of the Song family took action today, all the remaining scruples were gone. Regardless of whether the Song family had tampered with Song Shulan's life experience, she She would never let Tang Ning go back to that den of tigers and wolves again. As for the faces of the Song family and the foreign concubine, there was no need for her to cover them up.
She would only feel happy if the Song family was embarrassed.
Xiao Yan frowned slightly: "If you suspect that there is something wrong with her identity, you should go to Anzhou to check it out, but let's not talk about this for half a month. If you can't wait for the news there, you can go to the central government office in Beijing to transfer her to Beijing first. The roads used are cited in the document."
"The foreign concubine is not from the capital, she has lived in the capital for a long time, and she is the concubine of the second wife of the Song family. There should be records in the government office."
Princess Cheng was stunned for a moment: "Yes, how could I forget this?"
The capital is no different than other places. There are inspections in the city from time to time. If you are just doing business or staying temporarily for a few days, that's it. But if you want to live in the prosperous place in the city for a long time, you must "settled" first, otherwise you will be found out. Litigious.
How could a family like the Song family, which prides itself on being noble and well-behaved, be criticized for this?
"I'm going to Jingzhao Mansion right away. I want to see what Song Shulan is."
Princess Cheng stood up and left in a hurry, and Grandma Jiang didn't even have time to stop her.
Seeing Aunt Jiang's anxious expression, fearing that Princess Cheng would impulsively go to the government office and cause trouble, Tang Ning said, "Aunt Jiang, follow your aunt and don't let anyone rush into her."
"But girl..."
"I still have Hua Wu here, and the governor is here too."
After hearing this, Grandma Jiang thought about it and said quickly, "I'll go first, then."
One master and one servant left, and the originally lively room suddenly became quiet.
Hua Wu came in with freshly brewed tea and stepped aside. In front of the table were fragrant chestnuts brought from the kitchen, but Tang Ning's balled-up fingers were too difficult to eat.
She glanced at the table greedily, then looked at Xiao Yan curiously and asked, "Brother, why did you send your aunt away to Jingzhao Mansion?"
Xiao Yan said: "Prince Cheng visited a few days ago."
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then realized the meaning of his words.
"Although Jingzhao Mansion cannot find out whether Song Shulan is the daughter of Song Hong, they can find out whether she is from Anzhou. If Song Tan and the others really want to conceal Song Shulan's life experience, they will definitely prevent anyone from going to Anzhou. King Cheng I also thought of this, so I went to Jingzhao Mansion and secretly took away Song Shulan’s books.”
While Xiao Yan was speaking, he reached out and picked up a chestnut, pinched it between his fingers, and the chestnut shell cracked open.
"After your grandmother was carried back today, Song Hong also hurried to Jingzhao Mansion. He thought he noticed that you were suspicious of the Song family, and wanted to prevent you from using my help to investigate Song Shulan, but who knew that he didn't know until he went there? King Cheng took the books one step ahead of him."
Song Hong was so frightened that his face turned pale and he almost fainted.
Tang Ning was silent for a long time after hearing this: "So Song Shulan is really not from Anzhou?"
Xiao Yan said "hmm": "She is originally from Yanghua in the south, and the daughter of the Xu family in Suyun Town, Yanghua, was registered in Jingzhao Mansion."
May……
Song Tangning lowered his eyes. Previously, Song Hong and the others said that Song Shulan's biological mother's surname was Li, and Song Shulan only changed her surname after returning to the Song family.
If Song Hong and the others were careful, they even forgot to help Song Shulan change the book, but if they were just fooling around, they even remembered to lie to her about this little thing.
Tang Ning pursed her lips and whispered: "So Prince Cheng knew that she was not from Anzhou, but he still lied to his aunt about sending someone to Anzhou?"
"It's true to send people, and it's true to cajole."
Xiao Yan said softly, Princess Cheng is not stupid. She and Prince Cheng get along day and night. There are many things that Prince Cheng cannot completely hide from her. If he doesn't ask someone to go to Anzhou, this scene will be done. If you have enough, it will be easily noticed by Princess Cheng.
"Speaking of which, King Cheng is treating your aunt strangely. He says he doesn't care, but he is always in trouble. He would rather send someone to Anzhou in vain than let her notice his neglect and become unhappy. But if you say he cares, Song He can deceive even a big family matter."
"He knows clearly that your aunt hates evil and protects you to the extreme, but she helps the Song family cover up the deception. Isn't he afraid that Princess Cheng will turn against him after knowing this?"
Song Tangning pursed her lips tighter when she heard this. Let alone Xiao Yan, she didn't understand even if she had been reborn.
Tang Ning had something on her mind and lowered her eyelashes without saying anything.
Xiao Yan was not a talkative person. He could say a few words when Tang Ning was talking to him, but once Tang Ning calmed down, he would not take the initiative to speak.
The room was extremely quiet for a moment. The two sat opposite each other. Tang Ning unconsciously tugged at the white cloth wrapped in his hands, his eyes distracted, while Xiao Yan leaned on the table and peeled chestnuts with a distracted expression.
The round chestnut kernels were thrown into the empty teacup, and after a while they popped into their peaks.
Xiao Yanqu pushed the tea cup across the table to the opposite side, waking up Tang Ning who was a little distracted.
Tang Ning lowered his head and looked at the cup that should have been empty, filled with yellow chestnut kernels, and raised his head in surprise: "Brother?"
"I just saw that your saliva was almost drooling."
Xiao Yan clapped his hands and looked at the little girl opposite.
"Not everything in this world is common sense, and not everyone is the same as they appear. Prince Cheng and Princess Cheng have been married for many years and have always been in love with each other. If his true love is fake, then there is no reason why he has been pretending for more than ten years. How could I be noticed by you so easily?"
When Song Tangning heard this, he almost knocked over the chestnut in front of him.
"Brother, you..."
How did he know?
She obviously didn't say anything.
