After sending Second Young Mistress away, Wei Mengying asked Song Yixiao to stay here and told her something.
Song Yixiao frowned a little and thought Wei Mengying would continue to warn her. But unexpectedly, Wei Mengying took out a visiting card and asked, "Do you know why it's sent here?"
"What?" Song Yixiao took it in bewilderment and had a look at it. Then she was also shocked, "They ask to see you? Why?"
There were two signatures on the card, which were Madam Huang, the wife of Advisor to the Crown Prince, and Madam Lu of Song Family. Song Yixiao couldn't remember Madam Huang. But she must know Madam Lu who was present wife of her father, Song Yuan, as well as her stepmother!
Wei Mengying found her daughter's shock wasn't a.s.sumed. She also began to look confused, "How can I know that? I never contact with them! In my opinion, there's no reason for them to visit me. Will they come for you?"
Then she sneered, "In the early years, no one paid attention to you as if they were dead! Now you look beautiful and are thoroughly accomplished in lyre-playing, chess, calligraphy and painting. So they want to benefit from you? Bah! I raise my daughter like the apple of my eye. How can I let them plan to benefit from you?"
She just hoped Song Yixiao hate them after hearing her blame. In fact, Song Yixiao really wanted to avoid the Song Family when knowing what her cruel father did. So she immediately looked cold and said, "They only asked to visit you. So I don't want to see them! Mother, please help me. Whatever they say, don't call me out to see them!"
That was what Wei Mengying thought. So she said, "We shouldn't ask other people to scold you that you slight your stepmother because of such two persons... Well, you can pretend to be ill. And I will ask a doctor to give you some tonics! It doesn't matter whether you take them or not. We just need an excuse to refuse them!"
Pretended to be ill?
Song Yixiao didn't care about it at ordinary times. But at present... she hadn't been Jian Xubai's fiancée! If she was ill at this time, it would be considered as an unlucky thing!
After thinking for a while, she hurried to say, "Mother, do you forget that the Dowager Consort wants me to leave soon? She may make use of my illness. What if she asks me to recuperate in the Song Family with my stepmother for fear that I infect others in the mansion?"
"You are right..." Wei Mengying pondered, "But Madam Lu even comes here with her mother. It's said that Madam Huang is the Crown Princess's relative. We can't offend her."
If Madam Lu's family didn't have relations.h.i.+p with the Crown Princess, Wei Mengying wouldn't agree to see her!
"The Dowager Consort's birthday is coming, right?" Song Yixiao thought for a while and then said, "When I come back, shall I claim that I won't see anyone because I decide to embroider a picture quickly as a gift for the Dowager Consort?"
It was not reasonable that she embroidered a gift for an elder from the family where she lived instead of seeing her stepmother. But she didn't need to say it. It was proper for Wei Mengying to say it. "After all, Prince of Hengshan's mansion has raised Yixiao for many years and the Dowager Consort treated Yixiao like her own granddaughter. Yixiao is thankful so that she hurried to embroider day and night! The Dowager Consort's birthday is coming. I don't want to stop her filial affection. She has been 14 years old and won't live in the prince's mansion long. She doesn't have much time to repay the Dowager Consort, right?"
So, "Please don't hesitate to tell me your thoughts! I'm her mother and can hear anything about her!"
But when they guarded against Madam Huang and Madam Lu like thieves, Madam Huang and Madam Lu also took precautions against them, "According to Princess Consort Wei's character, we must be snubbed by her this time!"
"That's nothing!" Madam Huang sighed continuously, "Even if we can't let Song Yixiao forgive us now, it'll be good to make her not to hate us so much. Then she may not revenge on you in the future!"
Madam Huang had to worry about her daughter!
When Madam Lu married into the Song Family, Song Yixiao had been ejected from the house.
But what happened to Madam Liu at that time created a sensation. Everyone in the imperial capital, including the Lu Family, knew that the Song Family treated their eldest legitimate daughter badly.
But no one cared about that girl who had left the Song Family with dowry in advance. She might not have any relation with her family any more, as if the Song Family never had an eldest daughter.
However, how could they expect that Song Yixiao would marry Duke of Yan?
Lu Yicheng ran home to tell his wife, Madam Huang, as soon as he heard that from the Crown Prince. Then Madam Huang quickly called her daughter to go home!
The Lu Family was closely related to the Crown Prince. So they knew that the Crown Prince regarded Jian Xubai as important as Prince of Liang who was the Crown Prince's younger brother with the same mother!
Especially the Empress Dowager was behind Jian Xubai and was very indulgent to him!
Unexpectedly, Song Yixiao would marry into such a powerful family. How could the Lu Family ignore her?
They were clear that Song Yixiao would affect Jian Xubai as his wife!
"We must coax that girl successfully!" Madam Huang told her daughter with a firm att.i.tude, "Although Duke of Yan supports the Crown Prince like us, he is closer to the Crown Prince than us. After Song Yixiao marries Duke of Yan, she will easily destroy your husband's future! You, Yibao and children you will give birth to may be implicated, too!"
After all, "She is the eldest young lady of the Song Family and suffered much due to her stepmother, Madam Liu, when she was young. Then she was swept out like rubbis.h.!.+ Although the Song Family gives her dowry, she can't forget what she suffered! By the way, Princess Consort Wei isn't a kind person since she dared to abandon her husband and married another man! She may teach her daughter to hate the Song Family. How can she put in a good word for the Song Family?"
"The girl grows up in this situation. How can you expect her to like the Song Family?"
"But you also have a daughter with Song Yuan and call her Yibao. The Song Family treats Yibao well. Do you think the girl will fell happy to hear that? She had to bear it when she was not powerful! But after she becomes Duke's wife, she can't hurt us openly because we are her family. But she can do that secretly... She doesn't need to revenge by herself! She just shows her att.i.tude and there must be someone who aims at us to fawn on her!"
It would influence the whole family's future. Madam Lu wasn't stupid to refute her mother. She said, "My mother-in-law and husband are her elders, and can't apologize to her! So only I could beg for her forgiveness to make reconciliation! I'm not afraid to be refused by Prince of Hengshan's mansion. But I don't know if Princess Consort Wei agrees to see me!"
Madam Huang smiled bitterly, "I've asked you to come back! How can I let you go alone? Well, write my name on the card. I'll go with you! I think Princess Consort Wei will see us because of the Crown Prince. But she may not let us see that girl!"
Seeing her daughter pursed silently and looked worried, Madam Huang comforted, "It takes more than one cold day to freeze a river deep! We haven't contact her for six years. Even if we see her this time, how can she forgive us just because of our few words? It needs a long time! Anyway, we should let her feel our goodwill first!"
They held back their depression and paid attention to choose a gift. In Prince of Hengshan's mansion, Dowager Consort of Hengshan had waited since the feast of Shangsi Festival was over. Finally, she got Commandery Princess Qingjiang's message this day!
However, the person sent by Commandery Princess Qingjiang didn't come to propose a marriage for Zhuo Ping'an, but came to blame her!
"Your Highness, your plan is so good!" The person was a servant with a special status. He had served the Jinguo Grand Princess after she got married. When Commandery Princess Qingjiang married, the Jinguo Grand Princess loved her daughter and sent the servant to her. At this time, the servant sat in the hall and looked sarcastic, "You successfully made your stepdaughter-in-law be unable to speak out about her grievances. And you even considered the relations.h.i.+p between Commandery Princess and Duke Jian. Commandery Princess really admires your plans. But she is confused when she offended you. So she sends me here to ask you!"
Dowager Consort of Hengshan was confused by his question!
"Eunuch Chen, I can't understand your words." She was shocked in her heart and pondered, "Please tell it clearly. Is there any misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding?" Eunuch Chen sneered, "Duke Jian knew Miss Song six years ago. Since he came back with army this spring, he has met Miss Song many times in the Marquis Boling's mansion. He has already..."
At this time, Dowager Consort of Hengshan looked pale and couldn't believe it. Eunuch Chen snorted, "At the feast of Shangsi Festival, Duke Jian sent his jade pendant to Miss Song in front of the Commandery Princess. He invited the Commandery Princess to manage his wedding. Luckily, although the Commandery Princess didn't know Duke Jian liked Miss Song, she was cautious and just paid attention to that instead of saying her thought! Otherwise a disaster would come!"
"If Duke Jian knows the young lady he'll marry is recommended by you to be the daughter-in-law of the Commandery Princess, will the Commandery Princess have the face to see Duke Jian?"
Eunuch Chen looked gloomy, "My Commandery Princess just saw Miss Song once and talked few pleasantries with her, without knowing Duke Jian liked her. It's not a big deal! But Miss Song grows up in your mansion. You are able to conceal the feast of Shangsi Festival from Princess Consort Wei. How can't you know Miss Song has realized Duke Jian? But you still recommend her to be the Commandery Princess's daughter-in-law and even bribe Zhenli, the Commandery Princess's maid. What's your intention?"
It was over!
How could Dowager Consort of Hengshan have time to answer him at present?
She was so cold in her heart. Although Emperor Xianjia liked Commandery Princess Qingjiang, she didn't fear Commandery Princess Qingjiang because she was Emperor Xianjia's aunt. So Commandery Princess Qingjiang couldn't hurt her due to her high status!
But the Dowager Consort worried about her grandson!
She recommended Song Yixiao to Commandery Princess Qingjiang in order to let her support Lu Guanlun to be the heir of the prince. Commandery Princess Qingjiang also agreed with her. But since something unforeseen had happened, how could Commandery Princess Qingjiang carry out her former promise again?
On the contrary, the Commandery Princess would want anyone to be the heir of Prince of Hengshan's mansion, except Lu Guanlun!
"Among all my grandsons, only Guanlun is conscientious and kind to his family! He won't hurt his brothers if he inherits the prince's mansion. The prince's mansion will also help other kids!" Dowager Consort of Hengshan supported Lu Guanlun to be the heir of the prince, which because she liked him and also had the overall consideration. She thought, "Is anyone else as open-minded as him?"
Especially the young Lu Guanyun, "Madam Wei must teach her son to be narrow-minded! If Lu Guanyun becomes the heir of the prince, how can other people live in the prince's mansion in the future?"
The Dowager Consort was so shocked and angry that she couldn't answer Eunuch Chen for a long time!
When she regained composure, Eunuch Chen had already left!
When she was desperate, Second Young Mistress came in and said seriously, "Grandmother, I have a plan to make Sister Roumei calm her anger!"
