Chapter 528 Fainting
“Are you saying that you guys want to defect to me?” Song Yixiao pinched her forehead, but she was confused instead of happy, “Why?”
Pu mama was even more confused than her, “The bloodline of Jiangnan Hall, now you are the only one left, slave girl these people, not follow you, but follow who?”
“Aren’t there side branches?” Song Yi smiled and glanced at her, saying, “At least they’re still surnamed Song, but I’m already a member of the Jian family!”
“But the old family master, your grandfather, Lord Ji Nan, had left words during his lifetime, saying that one day Jiangnan Hall would become extinct, and if a woman survived, then a woman would inherit the family business.” Mother Pu explained, “This is for fear that the daughter of the first branch will be treated poorly after the side branch becomes the family.”
It was not surprising that Song Ying had this idea, after all, when he was alive, Jiangnan Hall was already a single lineage.
It would be fine if the heir was really extinct, but if there was still a girl, but she was taken over by someone else, and she might have to live under the eyes of the other branches who would be willing to do that as a normal elder?
What’s more, among the six valves, earlier Jinxiu Tang had already done the thing of letting their daughters inherit the family business, Song Ying and Old Lady Duanmu are contemporaries, considering their own family’s thin heir, it is not likely that they will also step on Jinxiu Tang’s dust, and leave such a command, it is also reasonable.
However, Song Yi laughs that there should be some other reasons: Jiangnan Song how many side branches, she is not very clear, but to Song Luo Shi that one, for example, although they hibernate in Western Liang for many years, but basically preserved the decency of the big family.
Judging from those guards of Song Luoyan’s uncle and nephew back then, they were not short of manpower.
Then Pu mama these people, although is one of the Song family’s cards, in the end is the first branch of cultivated, and not the side branch of the heart of the side branch is not short of people, can imagine, Jiangnan Hall of the family business if by the Song Luo Shi that a person to take charge of the words, Pu mama and other people do not say that they will be discarded, will certainly also be sent to retirement, there is no hope to be I can imagine that if the family business of Jiangnan Hall were to be managed by Song Luoshi’s team.
Because Song Luoshi and the others definitely trusted their cultivated right and left arms more.
As for those side branches that are completely down and out not to mention the fact that such side branches as Song Luoshi, who has preserved the decency of the Wang Clan, will not have an opinion on this, thus triggering a dispute, and the result of this dispute, the down and out side branches will certainly not be able to compete with the side branches like Song Luoshi, which still have the power to spare, and then Song Luoshi, when they win, will be able to make an impression on Pu’s mother and the others. It can be imagined!
Let’s just say that even if Song Luo Shi and the others were highminded and allowed Mama Pu and the others to defect to the downtrodden side clansmen.
But what good would it do to Mama Pope and the others to do so?
Sending people money to their door and having to do their bidding, maybe even helping the dude clean up all his messes …
It’s not like they’re guilty of looking for trouble like this?
Considering it so from the point of view of Pu’s mother and the others, it would be better to defect to Song Yixiao, at least Song Yixiao didn’t have so many beloved ones that could take their place.
And even if Marquis Yan’s house was downgraded a rank, it could still be their backer.
With the example of the Fairview Hall in front of us, the name is also justifiable.
Therefore, even though Song Yixiao clearly didn’t have much goodwill towards Mama Pu and the others, and didn’t think much of Jiangnan Hall, they still took the initiative to come to the door.
“Why are these people coming to the door at this time?” Song Yixiao felt a bit annoyed after pondering for a while, “I can’t get over how many things I’m worrying about right now, and they still have to come and join in the fun!”
“With the wind” in her mind is not a high status, one to her two lives have not been these people what help, to say that there is no resentment is impossible; Secondly, the fact that Song Yiyao died in the hands of the Hengshan King, but also proved that the secret guards are very weak, far from the top of the Weisu two families of manpower.
Moreover, Song Yixiao didn’t have a good relationship with the Song family, and was holding on to the loyalty of Mama Pu and the others.
“Rather become chicken ribs!” She said secretly, “It’s more or less a pity to eat it and discard it …”
In the end, she decided to hold off before discussing it, so she said to Mrs. Pu, “I think you already know about what happened at the Empress Dowager’s birthday banquet, or else you wouldn’t have sent a carriage over in the middle of the night to pick me up. Then you should know that we’re in the middle of a big event right now, so I don’t have time to think about how to accommodate you. Why don’t you go back first, and when this time the matter is over, we will slowly discuss a constitution?”
Unexpectedly, after Pu Mama nodded, she suddenly said, “Miss, do you know how the old slave received the report in time yesterday? And thus sent someone to pick up you and the county master?”
Seeing Song Yixiao slightly surprised, she pursed her lips and revealed, “It was Old Lady Duanmu who privately sent someone to tell her!”
“Grandmother?” Song Yixiao was slightly shocked, she wasn’t surprised that Elder Lady Duanmu would know about what happened at the birthday banquet, but rather she was surprised that Elder Lady Duanmu would be in contact with these people like Mrs. Pu in that case, Elder Lady Duanmu also knew about the deaths of Song Yibao and Song Yiyao?
Could it be that this grandmother, too, wanted her to take over the family business of Jiangnan Hall?
Song Yixiao couldn’t figure out what Old Lady Duanmu meant and pondered for a while before saying, “Does Grandmother have any other orders?”
“Old Madame asked the slave girls to serve you well from now on.” Mama Pu lowered her eyes and said.
“… “Song Yixiao pondered for a while and said, “I know, you go back first, allow me to think about it for two days!”
After Mother Pu left, Bell came closer to serve, her brows could not hide her joy, “Grandma, will Jiangnan Hall be yours from now on? This is really a good thing, the Song family is not an ordinary rich man!”
Song Yixiao looked at her speechlessly, this servant girl is too heartless, right? Didn’t you hear Mrs. Pu say that her own halfbrothers and halfsisters died just a few days ago?
Even if you know that your feelings with the Song side of the family are indifferent and you don’t grieve over it, you don’t just congratulate yourself, do you?
However, she knew that Wei Mengying didn’t have a good feeling about the Song family, and Bell was influenced by her, and had always held malice towards the Song family, so she didn’t say that Song Yiyao’s death was good enough now that the Song family was really empty, she didn’t bother to scold Bell, and only said, “Send someone to inquire about Yibao and Yiyao’s affairs, and if they’re still not buried, give them a better place to be buried. If they are not yet buried, give them a better place to be buried!”
After the death of a minor child, it is the rule not to enter the ancestral grave.
So Song Yixiao only said to find a better place to let them into the ground so commanded, suddenly thought of their own previous life, unmarried daughter died horizontally, seems to be not into the ancestral tomb, right?
And I wonder what happened to her afterlife in that lifetime?
Song Yuan made her die unjustly, so why would he care where she’s buried?
Willow had always seen her as a thorn in her side, and she certainly wouldn’t be properly buried.
So, in her past life, she was probably thrown into a mass grave and fed to the dogs with a roll of straw mats?
“Go early and get well soon!” Song Yixiao lost her smile and raised her tea bowl to the empty space, saying softly, “Having a father who doesn’t compete, no one has a good ending! But I hope that in your next life, you can meet a good father and mother, and don’t get involved like this again!”
Splashing the tea onto the ground, she drew out the handkerchief in her sleeve, wiped her fingertips, and called in Mossy Jin, “Has there been any news from the palace gates just now? How is the court meeting going?”
The court meeting continues.
After Wei Xi and Qiu Shuxia tore their faces off, the big fight was pulled apart, followed by the group of ministers arguing about whether or not to be here first today in the end, most people felt that they should continue to open, it doesn’t matter if they don’t eat their lunch, the new ruler candidate is more important.
Just as Song Yixiao expected, Duanhua emperor lost position has become a foregone conclusion, there is nothing to fight, the key is also not much people are willing to help him fight, even Gu Shao did not say a word to retain him not to abdicate.
But when it comes to the choice of a new king, it’s a riproaring mess!
Wei Xi’s faction was sure to establish a crown prince.
However, Qiu Shuxia and the others refused to agree, reasoning that Emperor Duanhua had not only insulted the concubines of the previous emperor, but was also suspected of killing the previous emperor, so how could this kind of person still abdicate in a dignified manner? It would have to be for everyone to abolish him and then exile him to the emperor’s tomb, okay!
In this case, the crown prince is the son of the abrogated emperor, there is a saying that like father, like son, I guess it is not a good thing, let him be the emperor, this big Rui Jiangshan is not going to suffer?
Wei Xi smashed the elephant tablet over at that time, “You bastard! His Majesty is also the late Emperor’s own flesh and blood, your old man’s talk of ‘like father, like son’ is clearly an insinuation about the late Emperor! This is an unforgivable offense!”
Qiu Shuxia did not show any weakness, not only did he also slam the elephant tablet in his hand, he even took off his boots and threw them on Wei Xi’s head, “Eagle! This is a perverse behavior, the abolition of the throne and exile are to be blamed! Prince as the son of this on his own, and is now the only male heir, this on his way to the mausoleum to guard the mausoleum, but the Prince in the imperial city in the world, but put filial piety in what place? There is no father’s poverty and suffering in the mausoleum, when the son’s position on the nine or five to enjoy the ultimate honor and glory of the world reason? Could it be that this is what His Highness the Crown Prince thinks?”
“His Majesty has had, so he asked to abdicate to pay for his fault!” Wei Xi inclined his head to dodge, in the end, because of the close distance, did not dodge all, hairpin was smashed crooked, he did not care to correct, furious roar, “However, the family of heaven has no private affairs, and the country can not be one day without the king! So his majesty went to the emperor’s tomb to guard the mausoleum, and ordered the crown prince to ascend the throne to continue the duties of the son of heaven, what is wrong with that? According to your words, after the old minister asked for his resignation, his children and grandchildren are not allowed to serve in the government! Is it filial piety to follow in the countryside? It’s just a bunch of nonsense!”
“You this old man is not cultivation is the strong words and reasoning with evil intentions!” Qiu Shuxia shouted back, “as a subject for the country and the people to work hard, to old age and physical decline since the request to return to their hometowns to recuperate, is human nature! The court also has been flagging their hard work, so that the legend of the countryside can not be compared with this on the act of antinomy and disobedience to justice? Is it possible that in the eyes of this old thing of yours, all the ministers who have been promoted at an advanced age are all doedogs, all disrespectful to their biological fathers, and all have something to do with the death of their biological fathers?”
“Enough !!!!” These two people were arguing so much that their words were getting more and more heated the other courtiers either couldn’t interject or didn’t dare to interject, and when it got to this point, Gu Shao finally couldn’t stand it any longer and came out to stop it, “Shut up to the old man, all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Wei Xi and Qiu Shuxia glanced angrily at each other, but in the end they did not argue any further, but together they arched their hands toward Gu Shao and said in unison, “Please also ask Prime Minister Gu to speak a fair word!”
This situation seems to Gu Shao to help reasoning, in fact, is forcing Gu Shao state the courtroom instantly quiet can be heard on the needle, are holding their breath waiting for Gu Shao’s answer!
Due to Lu He Hao’s revelation is too abrupt, Duanhua emperor ascension to the throne is not long, in addition to the Wei family such as due to the blood will certainly stand on the side of the crown prince, the other ministers, in fact, have not even considered, in the Duanhua dynasty also want to trip in the mixed water of the struggle for the throne.
So from last night to now, although everyone returned to the house after an urgent discussion, in fact, most people have not been able to make up their minds, in this change of heart, how to stand?
And Gu Shao’s position and reputation dictated that many people would use him as a benchmark this Chancellor’s eyesight and experience had a reputation, so it was unlikely to be wrong to follow him, right?
Even if it is wrong, then the top of the front of the bad luck also have Gu Shao, they are at most a little involved is not it?
“Gu Shao is the master of the Crown Prince, according to the theory will not not help the Crown Prince, just … also do not know whether there will be any variables?” Wei Xi stared at Gu Shao, thinking in his heart, “If he doesn’t help the Crown Prince, this matter is going to be troublesome well, it’s not like I don’t have a backhand!”
“This Gu is the Crown Prince’s teacher, so he will certainly help the Crown Prince!” Qiu Shuxia was thinking, “But this old man is so sharpeyed that he may not be able to turn away from the dark side of the cliff if that’s the case, of course it’s the best, if not, it’s not as if we don’t have a backhanded plan!”
Catering to the eager eyes of the court hall, Gu Shao face sinking like water, gently caressing the long beard under the chin, was about to open his mouth, who would like to!
On Dan Edward, there was a sudden muffled sound, followed by the chamberlain’s panicked words, “Your Majesty! Your Majesty! What happened to you, Your Majesty?!”
Emperor Duanhua could not bear the blow and fainted in public!
