A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 616: Being Tricked by the Song Family
Shen Zhixiu really did as he said and did nothing.
Just when Su Qingyu couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to do something for him, Shen Zhixiu got up and went to the bathroom behind the study.
Soon, the sound of water was heard.
Su Qingyu lay there motionless, the corners of her red eyes slightly raised, and there was a lingering lustful look between her eyebrows.
After coming out of the bathroom, Shen Zhixiu changed into a light-colored casual suit. He glanced at Su Qingyu, whose cheeks were blushing, and walked up to her and said, "Why is your face still so red? What are you thinking about?"
Su Qingyu pursed her lips and glared at him, as if her secrets had been exposed.
"It's all your fault." She said angrily.
Shen Zhixiu sat down and hugged her, chuckled and asked, "Do you blame your husband for seducing you?"
Su Qingyu turned her head away and refused to look at her.
Since she got pregnant, Shen Zhixiu had been restraining herself all day, and she was able to stop herself from going too far every time. But this annoyed her...
I know she is very shy, especially in matters like this.
Shen Zhixiu could only talk about other things to change the subject.
"My second brother has found a good girl for Shen Hongxiang, and we are just waiting for the final decision."
"Second Aunt wanted to come over to discuss this with you, but was afraid of disturbing your rest."
Su Qingyu asked curiously, "Whose girl is this?"
Shen Zhixiu smiled and said, "She is the girl from the Xie family, her name is Xie Huanci. Did you meet her last time at Huguo Temple?"
Su Qingyu thought of the girl from the Xie family and started laughing too.
"It's the girl from the Xie family. This is a good match. The girl has a good temper and good upbringing."
Most of the daughters of the Xie family married into noble families, and rarely married into the powerful.
Seeing that she was very interested in talking about this matter, Shen Zhixiu said a few more words, "This marriage was proposed by Shen Hong himself."
"My second brother asked someone to privately ask the Xie family for their opinion. Since the third master was not in Beijing, he also wrote a letter to ask him what he thought."
"This afternoon, Third Master Xie sent a letter back to Beijing, agreeing to the marriage."
Su Qingyu leaned on the soft pillow beside her with a smile on her face, "This is a happy event. Once it's decided, we'll celebrate it properly."
Shen Zhixiu was about to respond when there was a knock on the door. Knowing that it was Wenzhu who had something to report, Shen Zhixiu stood up and walked out.
Soon he walked in again and said, "Today is a double blessing. The Song family sent a message and agreed to the Qin family's marriage proposal."
Su Qingyu's eyes sparkled with light, "Maybe Yue Lao appeared these past two days? Why are there always such happy events?"
Shen Zhixiu said, "I have to go to the Qin family. When I come back, we will have dinner together."
Su Qingyu motioned for him to go first while she went to the second room.
Shen Hong had arranged a marriage, and as the third aunt, she couldn't just pretend she didn't know. She should go ask if there was anything she could do to help, and then discuss the rest with the second sister-in-law.
In the past two days, she has learned the dietary taboos and vomited less. In addition, she is no longer the housekeeper and is carefully taken care of all day, so she is much more energetic than before.

The next day, after the court meeting ended, the second prince left the palace and hurried to chase after Song Zan, the Marquis of Loyalty. He wanted to tell Song Zan that the emperor had issued an edict to make Rong Jin a concubine, and that his marriage with the Song family should also be settled.
But before he could say a few words to Song Zan, Song Zan left in a hurry, making an excuse that he had something to do.
The second prince was surprised and wondered what urgent matter the Marquis of Loyalty had.
When I was wondering whether I should go to the Song family, I heard the sound of court officials chatting.
"I heard that the third son of the Qin family and the eldest daughter of the Song family are engaged? Is it true?"
"It hasn't been decided yet, but the tokens and engagement letters have been exchanged. I heard that Mr. Shen San was the matchmaker."
Shen Zhixiu happened to come out at this time, and someone took the opportunity to ask about the marriage between the Qin and Song families. Shen Zhixiu did not elaborate, but only said that the Marquis of Loyalty and the Duke of Zhenguo would definitely invite everyone to drink at the wedding.
The meaning of the words is self-evident.
The second prince was shocked. He had just agreed on this matter with the Song family two days ago.
How is it possible that Song Wanwan is engaged to Qin Yuan?
He no longer hesitated, left the palace, got on the carriage and headed for the Song family.
Hearing that the second prince had arrived, Song Zan took Song Hongshen out to greet him.
"The King of Pingxi has come to visit us. I am sorry for not welcoming you from afar. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"The prince has come here in person, but is there something wrong?"
Song Zan bowed respectfully and asked politely, as if he didn't know why the second prince came to the Song family.
After that, he invited the second prince to the hall for tea.
But the second prince did not move, and asked, "The eldest lady of the Song family is going to discuss marriage with the third young master of the Qin family?"
Song Zan smiled and said, "Your Highness is really well-informed. This was decided last night."
"When they get married, Your Highness must come and have a drink at the wedding."
When Song Zan spoke, his face was full of joy, just like an old father who was happy because his daughter had found a good home.
The second prince was filled with anger and asked through gritted teeth, "Why did my uncle break his promise? Didn't we agree that as long as cousin Wan is the principal wife, the marriage can go on as usual?"
Song Zan was confused, "What does your highness mean? When did we agree on this?"
The second prince was stunned. Song Zan did not say a word of promise that day. But people like them would not speak out. What did Song Zan mean? Could he have heard it wrong?
"My uncle said that day that cousin Wan would not be a concubine. I have already asked my father to appoint Rong Jin as a concubine for her. My uncle suddenly changed his mind. Shouldn't he give me an explanation?"
Song Zan looked at the second prince helplessly, "Your Highness, did you misunderstand? I said that the daughter of the Song family would not be a concubine, but I did not agree to marry your Highness."
"Everyone knows about the incident between His Highness and Miss Rong that day. How could the Song family agree to this marriage?"
The second prince had nothing to understand at this time. He was tricked by the Song family.
Song Zan's words were clearly meant to make him misunderstand. But he didn't say a single definite word, so no matter how the matter went, the Song family was not at fault.
Because of the Song family's words, he made Rong Jin a concubine. Although Rong Junwang didn't say it, he was dissatisfied with him in his heart.
He got into a lot of trouble, but the Song family happily arranged a marriage for their daughter.
The second prince gritted his teeth and forced himself not to fall out with Song Zan on the spot.
After lowering his eyes for a moment, the second prince raised his head again and said calmly, "That may be a misunderstanding of mine. Uncle, don't mind what I said just now."
"Since it's just a misunderstanding, let's talk it out. I'll take my leave now."
After saying this, the second prince turned around and left the Song family.
Song Zan and Song Hongshen both said in a loud voice: "Farewell, Prince Pingxi."
After a long while, the Second Prince's carriage had already gone far away. Song Zan put away the smile on his face, "He is much more cunning than the Crown Prince."
There was a hint of fear in Song Hongshen's eyes. He didn't expect that the Second Prince didn't even say a harsh word, which showed how scheming he was.
"He chose to use the Song family, so he has to bear the consequences."
After the Second Prince left the Song family, he ordered someone to secretly inform the Crown Prince that he wanted to see him.
In a secluded courtyard in the west of the city, the second prince quietly walked in.
In the main landlord's study, the prince was making tea himself. His every move was elegant and noble.
Seeing the second prince coming in, the prince said calmly: "The Song family and the Qin family are discussing marriage? Then you have worked in vain?"
Not only did they work in vain, but they also alienated the Rong family from them. He thought that this second brother was a capable person, but he didn't expect that he was also a waste.
