[Red Mansion] This world is a bit chaotic

Ever since Wei Xinfang was grounded, Song Qi's news has not been well informed. These days, she felt suffocated because of the bustling preparations for the wedding in the mansion. Get mad in the yard.

Therefore, when Elder Song came back with a serious face and ordered Mrs. Song and Song Qi to pack their bags and prepare to go to another place with him, Song Qi didn't know the news that the second prince's marriage had been decided, so she rejected Elder Song disapprovingly. Words: "I'm not going! Father, you can take office as soon as you take office. Why do you have to take me with you? It's much more useful for me to stay in Beijing than follow you to take office. Last time, Princess Xinfang said that she would take me with you." Going to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager. When I am appreciated by the Empress Empress and have good luck, I will ask someone to transfer you back to Beijing. Wouldn’t it be better to be a local official than a Beijing official? We live in Beijing so much. It's been many years, how can I get used to it when I'm out of Beijing?"

"Good fortune?" Grandpa Song sneered, "What good fortune can you have? Today, news has spread from the palace that the queen wants to hire a daughter from the Lin family as a wife for the second prince. What kind of daydream are you still dreaming about?" ? Hurry up and restrain me, don't cause me trouble again."

"What?" There was a surprised voice, but it was the double effect of Song Qi and Mrs. Song, "How is this possible?"

Song Qi's expression changed, she grabbed her father's sleeve, and hurriedly asked: "Father, are you joking? The daughter of the Lin family? Could it be Lin Daiyu? How is it possible? Hu Meizi as a daughter-in-law?"

"Yes, master, did you make a mistake? The daughter of the Lin family is slender, and she is not a good child at first glance. No mother would like such a candidate for a daughter-in-law, let alone the empress?"

"Wrong? Who can make a mistake in this kind of thing? Could it be that you think that the Lin family is just like you, asking your servants to spread rumors that your girl is a noble character and good fortune, and only a prince is worthy?" Elder Song said. He patted the table, "The empress has invited Princess De and the younger siblings of the second room to be matchmakers. If you really don't believe me, just go to the second room and ask."

"The second room is a matchmaker?" Mrs. Song was furious when she heard it, and said, "Okay, let me tell you who made the trouble. It turned out to be from the second family. Isn't she just afraid that my daughter will marry better than her daughter? They have two bedrooms and one head, dare to use such despicable means to ruin my daughter's marriage, and I will not let her go."

As he said that, he wanted to rush out, but was stopped by Mr. Song: "What do you want to do?"

"I'll go desperately to the second child's family!" Mrs. Song yelled.

"Nonsense! Do you still think I'm not unlucky enough?" Elder Song said angrily as he waved his hands.

"Master..." Seeing Mr. Song's angry face, Mrs. Song couldn't help restraining her anger, but she was still aggrieved, "Master, don't tell me you're just watching their second wife bully us like this?"

Master Song snorted coldly, and said: "You think too highly of the second room. Don't you think that the prince's marriage is something that a younger brother and sister can decide? You think we have not made enough jokes by trying to find her Did I know that you two could cause such a big disaster for me, I should have sent you back to your hometown long ago, so as not to embarrass me, embarrass me!"

As Mrs. Song had guessed, Mr. Song put all the blame on his wife and daughter, and regarded himself as innocent.

"All in all, the second prince's marriage has been decided. I don't want to hear any more rumors about Qi'er from other people, especially those from our family. If anyone mentions the previous rumors, it will be said that it came from the mother. Yes, anyway, my mother is old and confused now, and no one else will doubt her, let alone argue with her. When Qier and I go to work in other places, and after two years, we will find a good relative in the local area, and this matter will be over. gone."

"I don't want it!" Song Qi screamed, "When I go to other places, what good marriage is there? A local gentry? Or an official family who is on the same level as my father? In this way, won't I be inferior to Song Lan in my life? Lin Daiyu. Their second wife won’t be able to see our first wife, okay? If I can’t marry someone more noble than Prince De’s son, we will only be looked down upon by the second wife for the rest of our lives! Father, you are willing to be ridiculed for being inferior to your second uncle all your life. I'm not reconciled! If I can't marry the second prince, I'd rather not marry for the rest of my life!"

Being poked in the sore spot by his daughter, Elder Song became furious for a moment. He raised his hand and slapped Song Qi: "Shameless! Is this what a little girl like you should say? Don't marry if it's not the second prince? You How do you marry? Going to be someone's concubine? Don't even look at whether they think of you! Why do you think I have to take you to the post? It's not because people think you stay in Beijing. , implying that I must take you away!"

Song Qi covered her face and looked at Mr. Song in disbelief. Mr. Song never disciplined her very much, and he never raised a finger at her: "You hit me? You hit me for outsiders? I I hate you, unless you beat me to death, I will never go out of Beijing with you!"

After saying that, he turned around and ran out.

Master Song was trembling with anger, pointing at the door with one hand: "You...you..."

Mrs. Song hurriedly comforted him: "Okay, lord, what Qi'er said is not unreasonable. We have been laying the groundwork for so long, and we have established a good relationship with Prince De and Princess De. Even if I think about it, I feel unwilling to be cut off by others. What's more, Qi'er? How do you want her to face her little sisters? Instead of forcing Qi'er to go out with you Beijing, why don't you stay and try again? Isn't the marriage between the second prince and the daughter of the Lin family still settled? Let's think of a way, maybe there is some room for maneuver? At that time, the master doesn't have to leave Beijing, let's I'm used to living in Beijing, but I can't get used to anything when I leave Beijing. If it's something I can't do, then I will take Qi'er out of Beijing to join you, and it won't be too late to consider choosing a son-in-law locally."

The more Mrs. Song thinks about it, the more she feels that her method is good, but looking at Mr. Song's appearance, she seems to be holding her breath-if Mr. Song was pissed off by his daughter just now, now he is about to be killed by Mr. Song. Madam's remarks completely pissed her off.

It took a long while before Elder Song regained his composure, and said angrily, "Are you trying to kill me? How dare you find a way to obstruct the marriage arranged by the Empress? Are you eating a bear's heart and a leopard's guts? Then Qing Have you never heard of what happened to the Princess Zhen’s family? Why do you think I was transferred out of Beijing? It’s all because your actions offended the Second Prince. My warning! The implication of taking my daughter to the post was revealed to me by the second prince who sent his cronies! Do you think that the princess of a prince’s mansion will ascend to the sky? He fights with Song Lan everywhere in the mansion, and gives Miss Lin when he goes out. It's a stumbling block, now that the second prince is dissatisfied, Prince De's son has also warned me, and Miss Lin and her father, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, are pestering me. Do you think they are all soft buns and have no temper? If you continue to make trouble like this, sooner or later they will be killed My black gauze hat is gone! At that time, I will have no face to carry it in this mansion. I will reconcile with you and go back to my hometown to farm! You see, it is the mother who can protect you two for the rest of your life, or the second room is kind. I will support you two for a lifetime!"

Mrs. Song was really taken aback when she heard this. She dreamed of being the prince's mother-in-law, and even dreamed of suppressing the arrogance of the second room, but what if his master lost his official position? Even more so compared to the mud by the second room, and the master wants to reconcile with her?How can this be!The old lady is so old that she doesn't even know her brain, how many years can she protect them?It is even more impossible to count on the second room to support them for a lifetime.

After some weighing, Mrs. Song quickly figured it out. Compared with the unattainable status of the prince's mother-in-law, it is more important for her to keep the status of the official wife first. After all, these fourth-rank officials are indifferent in Beijing. In the local area, there is also a government official, and hurriedly said: "Okay, sir, don't be angry, don't be angry, I... I will go to persuade Qi'er, we will go out of Beijing with you, go out of Beijing with you, what second prince, It doesn't matter who he marries...it doesn't matter..."

But when Mrs. Song found Song Qi's room, Song Qi was not there. After asking, she found out that she had run out of the house, saying that she could not just sit and wait for death, but had to fight for her own destiny.

Mrs. Song was frightened when she heard this, but she was also afraid that Mr. Song would be angry if he found out, so she hurriedly ordered to keep the matter secret, and sent someone out to look for it.

This delay failed to stop Song Qi before she ran to Wei Beicui to confess her feelings.

Song Qi felt that she had never been so crazy as at this moment.She originally planned to come to Wei Xinfang to help her meet the second prince—she had no time to wait any longer, but the concierge of the palace said that Wei Xinfang was sick and did not see outsiders, and refused to let her see Wei Xinfang, and even asked them to give Wei Xinfang It is not possible to send a word.

Who would have thought that seeing the second prince come back with Wei Zhengsheng at this moment, she stopped him as soon as she got angry.

Wei Beicui had heard of the name Song Qi, but had never seen her before. Suddenly, he saw a young girl standing in front of his horse, trying to control the horse so as not to hurt anyone.

Wei Zhengsheng recognized Song Qi, after all, she was his fiancée's cousin, and he had seen her before.

Seeing Wei Beicui looking at him ambiguously, Wei Zhengsheng seemed to be wondering if this girl was his rotten peach blossom. Is it on his head?

Wei Zhengsheng then asked: "Song Qi, why are you here?"

Only then did Wei Beicui look at Song Qi in surprise. The little girl with finger marks on her face and red eyes looked really embarrassed and pitiful, but it was... that Song Qi?

Song Qi looked at Wei Beicui, gritted her teeth, and said, "My daughter... My daughter has something to say to the second prince." She knew that if she missed this time, she might never have the chance to see the second prince again. At the moment when she was almost desperate, the second prince appeared in front of her by such a coincidence riding a tall horse. He was handsome and majestic, like a god who was coming to save her. Couldn't this be considered a heaven-sent fate?

Now it's Wei Beicui's turn to be embarrassed. Even in the modern society of his previous life, he had never met a girl who confessed to him face to face, let alone in this ancient time—although compared to the real ancient times, today's This society has become much more enlightened.

"Uh, what do you want to say?" Wei Beicui couldn't help touching his nose.

Song Qi couldn't help but blush, she said those words impulsively just now, it was already embarrassing enough for her, why should she still be in front of so many concierge servants, Wei Zhengsheng, and the guards following behind them Does your face express your heart?

Song Qi could only murmur: "Second prince, can... can I take a step to speak?"

"Uh," Wei Beicui really didn't know how to deal with this kind of situation, but at least he knew what he could do and what he couldn't do. If you come, I and my son can be the masters for you."

Wei Zhengsheng listened to Wei Beicui's nonsense in a serious manner, and twisted the fact that the girl's family came to him to express their feelings to him, and almost choked to death on his own saliva.

However, he didn't want Song Qi to make any jokes in front of the public, so he could only smooth things over and said: "If Miss Song is wronged, I will report it to my concubine mother and let her concubine decide with you. Come on , take Miss Song to see the princess..."

"Eh hehe, since there is something going on in the mansion, I won't bother you, let's take a step first." Wei Beicui laughed dryly, turned his horse's head and wanted to leave.

"Second prince, go slowly." Although there is some business to discuss with Wei Beicui when he returns home, it is better for Wei Beicui to leave as soon as possible in this situation. After Song Qi's matter is resolved, he will go to him again. of.

Seeing that Wei Beicui and Wei Zhengsheng were about to leave as soon as they sang together, Song Qi knew that once she was handed over to Princess Deqin, she would be sent back to the Song Mansion immediately, and then she would only be taken out by her parents Go to Beijing, this is really her last fight, she blurted out: "Second prince, my daughter is pleased with you!"

Wei Beicui froze for a moment, looked at Wei Zhengsheng, twitched the corners of his mouth, and said, "Brother Zhengsheng, it's too windy today, I can't hear what you said, why don't you come to the palace to find me later, Gong The wind is less."

"Ah, okay, I'll look for you later." Wei Zhengsheng obviously didn't expect this to happen, and was a little stiff for a while, twitching the corners of his mouth just like Wei Beicui, and said dryly.

"Farewell." Wei Beicui cupped his hands, turned his horse's head and ran away, looking at his back, he really felt a little bit run away.

"Farewell." Wei Zhengsheng waved stiffly at Wei Beicui's back, "The wind is so strong that I can't hear anything clearly."

The guards who followed Wei Beicui had already been taken away, and the guards and servants of Prince De's Mansion who stayed in place couldn't help but dryly said to each other: "Yes, the wind is too strong, what are you talking about? I listen Unclear."

In other words, there seems to be such a scene a few years ago, and it is about Master Xuncheng Censor Lan—one of the few female officials in the dynasty, who was the deputy commander of the guards in the palace. —When her current husband-in-law, Master Wu, Shaoqing of Dali Temple, said carelessly: "Boy, I like you, what do you think of me?"

Later, the pair of Huanxi lovers made a lot of jokes, and finally tied the knot. Master Lan even invited the Queen Empress to be a matchmaker, which is also a good story.

Presumably, Miss Song's courage to express her love to the second prince in the street also comes from Master Lan's role model?It's just that Master Lan and Master Wu were both unmarried men and women, and the second prince heard that he was about to get engaged, so it seems not good to come to confess at this time, right?

Although the second prince told her to go down the steps saying "I can't hear you clearly", but there are so many people present, and there are passers-by who happen to pass by here, there is no guarantee that this story will be spread... No, it should definitely be. spread the word...

Everyone couldn't help looking at Song Qi who was dying of embarrassment and anger with some sympathy. They could almost predict the ridicule she would face. Mrs. Lan was ridiculed a lot back then. Obviously, Miss Song is not as capable as Mrs. Lan. Especially cheeky ones.

Moreover, after so many years, the couple of Master Lan and Master Wu have been achieved, which shows that the success rate of this approach is very low.

Song Qi regretted the words as soon as she uttered them, but she couldn't take them back. Seeing that the second prince pretended not to hear him and ran away on horseback, Song Qi finally couldn't help covering her face and running away in the face of everyone's eyes. She turned around and bumped into the person Mrs. Song sent to look for her, and took her back to the Song Mansion.

After Mr. Song heard what his daughter had done, he really fainted this time.

After waking up, I saw that Song Qi was looking for death and life, clamoring for death, Mr. Song's head exploded, he hurriedly packed Mrs. Song and Song Qi into the carriage, and went out of the city overnight to wait for him at his post, waiting for him to complete the transfer procedures Go after it.

Mr. Song couldn't control this daughter anymore, he just said to Mrs. Song: "Don't think that you can make the second prince soft-hearted and marry Song Qi by forcing you to die. The hostess is gone. If Song Qi really wants to die, let her die far away from the capital, and find a place to bury her. I will treat her as a daughter. If she dies, you and I don't have to live anymore. We reconcile, I resign and go back to my hometown, you go back to your mother's house or something, I don't care about you."

Mrs. Song could only nod anxiously, and then nodded again, looking at her daughter all day long, making a lot of trouble, so she had to wrap her in a cloth towel, or pour some tranquilizing medicine, and the journey went smoothly. road.

Fortunately, after leaving the capital, Song Qi gradually became quieter, and Mrs. Song finally breathed a sigh of relief.Think about it, it's also good to leave the capital, otherwise if you stay in the capital, you're afraid you'll be drowned by the spittle of others.

After a few days, Song Qi suddenly said: "I can't marry someone more powerful than Song Lan's husband. I want to marry someone super rich. I'll kill her with money!"

Mrs. Song saw that Song Qi was willing to speak, and said happily: "Okay, okay, let's marry a rich man, and use gold and silver to kill the group of conscientious people in the big house. Song Lan is proud now, but Prince De has several sons and daughters, She is too partial to the princess, Song Lan will definitely not get much of the family property, and when she comes to ask us to borrow money, we will still give her a few taels of silver."

Mrs. Song comforted her daughter indiscriminately, but Song Qi began to fantasize about throwing a few taels of money at Song Lan.
