After coming out of Rong Mansion, Song Xiang rode his horse all the way to Huanyanfang. The moment he saw Xu Jining, he pulled him out of the shop.

As Xu Jining walked, he asked, "What's wrong with my wife? Why are you so anxious? What happened at home?"

"Let's talk about it when we get home!" Song Xiang helped Xu Jining onto the horse, then stepped on the stirrups and jumped onto the horse. The two of them rode together and went home.

Yutou had been waiting at the door. When he saw Song Xiang coming back, he pulled the reins to tie the horse.

Song Xiang took Xu Jining's hand and went back to the courtyard. He said to Tao Hong who was tending to the flowers and plants, "Go and invite the men to the main hall. I have something to say!"

"Okay, miss. I'll be there right away!"

Song Xiang didn't show any extra expression along the way. After everyone arrived, she said calmly: "I'm sure you all know that Master Wuchen invited me to Longhua Temple today!"

"I'm calling you here now because of the matter of going to the capital!"

Wei Tingxun coughed a few times and said with concern: "Why are you going to the capital for no reason? Is it related to the Imperial Master?"

Song Xiang asked Tao Hong to bring a bowl of warm water. He stared at Wei Tingxun and took a few sips before saying, "It's related to my life experience!"

"Master Wuchen has been ordered by His Majesty to take me to the capital, so I have no choice but to obey!"

When everyone heard Song Xiang's words, they were all surprised.

Lu Zechuan asked hurriedly, "Is there anything wrong with my wife's background? Why did it alarm His Majesty?"

Hearing this, Song Xiang glanced in the direction of Lu Zechuan and asked, "Are you scared?"

Lu Zechuan curled his lips, revealing a gloomy look: "What am I afraid of! Wherever you go, I will go! If His Majesty dares to hurt you, I will accompany you even at the cost of my life!"

"Be careful with your words!" Xu Jining scolded, "Be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall!"

Song Xiang pulled the corner of his mouth imperceptibly, and said with a serious expression: "Master Wuchen has never told me about my life experience, but it is not difficult to tell from his words that going to the capital is not a bad thing!"

Meng Feiji thought of his mother's previous instructions and felt a little enlightened. No wonder his mother allowed him to marry Song Xiang on her own accord. It turned out that she had already discovered Song Xiang's identity.

He couldn't help but feel a little sad: "Xiangxiang, no matter whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, I will protect you!"

Song Xiang nodded, his voice light: "Although the Imperial Master has extended the time for me to go to the capital, he has received an imperial decree after all. We cannot keep His Majesty waiting for too long. Everyone, hurry up and pack your bags and follow me to the capital in the next two days!"

After saying this, he turned to Xu Jining and asked, "Jining, how do you plan to arrange Huanyanfang?"

Xu Jining was confident, and with a touch of tenderness in his eyes, he said, "Don't worry, my wife, Uncle Song is watching over here, nothing will happen!"

"We can just open a branch store when we get to the capital!" After saying that, he looked at Feng Mian and said modestly, "Feng Mian, I'll have to trouble you to write a letter to the eldest sister of the Feng family and ask her and my eldest sister to continue to supply us with goods!"

Feng Mian was secretly observing Song Xiang. When he heard Xu Jining's voice, he suppressed the gleam in his eyes and replied, "Of course!"

"I'll write back in a minute!"

Xu Jining smiled gently and said nothing more.

Wei Tingxun, on the other hand, had a worried look on his face. Song Xiang noticed his abnormality and asked, "Tingxun, do you have any unspeakable secrets?"

Wei Tingxun hesitated to speak...

Song Xiang was a little worried: "I see you don't look well, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you go back and rest first?"

Wei Tingxun shook his head and was about to speak, but finally gritted his teeth and endured it.

Song Xiang thought about it for a while and pointed out his concerns: "Ting Xun, you are not worried about your mother, right?"

Wei Tingxun nodded, his voice hoarse: "My mother was banished from the capital by His Majesty. If I follow my wife to the capital, I am afraid that it will bring trouble to my wife..."

"My dear wife, I will stay in Xuanyang!"

"No!" Song Xiang refused without thinking, "Your mother was an official in the court before, and was implicated in a grain and grass embezzlement case by someone with ulterior motives. She couldn't guard against being implicated, but what does this have to do with you?"

"Ting Xun, His Majesty will not punish innocent people at will, you can rest assured!"

After hearing Song Xiang's words, Wei Tingxun's anxious heart calmed down a little.

"As long as it doesn't affect my wife's career..."

"It won't have any impact!" Song Xiang stood up, took out five blue chalcedony rings from his sleeve pocket, walked to Wei Tingxun and put them on him.

Then he walked over to Feng Mian and Wei Zechuan and put them on their fingers.

Meng Feiji didn't wait for Song Xiang to come over, but went up to Song Xiang and asked him to put it on for him.

Song Xiang smiled and said to everyone, "Go back and pack your things for the journey!"

Several men stared at the ring, their minds in turmoil.

Song Xiang didn't look at her husband's expression, but directly told Yutou: "Yutou, go buy some herbs and all kinds of cakes..."

The other husbands left the main hall and went to their own rooms to clean up, except Xu Jining.

After waiting until only Song Xiang and Xu Jining were left in the living room, Song Xiang waved his hand: "Jining, come to me!"

Xu Jining walked up to Song Xiang and asked, "My dear wife, what's wrong?"

Song Xiang smiled and pulled Xu Jining's hand, and also pushed the blue chalcedony ring into the base of the finger.

"Blue really suits you guys! When I have more money, I will buy you better ones!"

Xu Jining laughed: "As long as it's a gift from my wife, no matter how noble it is, we will be very happy!"

After that, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Wife, if there is anything else you need to do, just tell me."

When Song Xiang thought about it carefully, he realized that he had indeed neglected a few things, and these things were only Jining could handle.

She held Xu Jining's hand, and as they walked, she said, "We are going to the capital this time, and we don't know when we will be back, so there are a few things I need you to do for me right now!"

Xu Jining asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

Song Xiang did not keep the secret and said directly: "My elder brother is engaged to Tan Yan, the daughter of the headmaster of Taihua Academy. They will be married soon. Please buy some dowry for my elder brother and send it to the Tan family!"

"I will go visit the headmaster in a moment and discuss a wedding date with her as soon as possible, so that there will be no one to take charge of my eldest brother's marriage. This is the first thing to do!"

"Besides, it's my marriage to Rong Zhifu's son Qiu Li. We left in a hurry and had no time to plan the wedding. I can only let him inconvenience me and let Rong Zhifu register the marriage contract at the government office. When the capital is stable, I will hold a grand wedding for you guys!"

"You need to prepare some engagement gifts for me. I will go to Rong Mansion tomorrow. This is the second thing!"

"The last thing is to send a message to my family. You and I are husband and wife, and we are cousins. If you do this, it will make grandma feel more at ease."

"If I write to my grandmother and tell her that I'm going to the capital to look for my relatives, she will probably lose her appetite and worry about me all the time. It would be best if you could tell her. Then my father wouldn't be alarmed when he finds out!"
