Chapter 160
Song Anning and his party arrived in the afternoon.
Mrs. Song Shen Jiao and Mr. Song Song Hexing had been waiting at the gate for a long time.
Seeing the two sons returning with the carriage, they both stepped forward excitedly.
"Is Ning Ning back?"
Dongqing jumped down from the carriage first, and then she and Fuling helped Song Anning down. Song Anning was very happy to see the two elders, and bowed respectfully, "Father, mother, I'm back."
"Okay, it'll be good when you're back, it'll be good when you're back."
Dongqing and Fuling also smiled and greeted Song Hexing and Shen Jiao. They both smiled and agreed. The family was both grateful and excited. Even Song Hexing, who never liked to show his emotions, had red eyes and walked in happily. go.
"Didn't you say you set out half a month ago? Why did it take you so long to arrive?"
"It was snowing and the road was difficult to walk. I walked a little slower for safety, which made my parents worried."
Song Helan explained.
Shen Jiao nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I forgot that there are many mountain roads along the way from Jizhou. You must pay attention to safety. Quickly, quickly, step over the brazier to get rid of bad luck. In the future, all diseases will be eliminated, and there will be no filth or disaster." "
Song Anning smiled brightly and was helped by her mother to step over the brazier. She dipped a willow branch in water to remove the odor, and then followed them to the dining room.
After Shen Jiao received the news from Song Helan, she started to prepare.
At this time, the sumptuous meal is served, and the aroma is so fragrant that it makes people move their index fingers.
Song Anning took a deep sniff and said with a smile: "Sure enough, the food at home is more delicious."
One sentence made Shen Jiao and Song Hexing blush at the same time.
Shen Jiao asked: "What is the situation over there in Jizhou? Your father is busy and we can't get away. Fortunately, your eldest and second brothers rushed over. I received your letter earlier and only told you about the accident. You didn’t tell us exactly what the accident was. Now that you’re back, you have to tell us so that we don’t have to worry.”
Song Anning and her eldest and second brothers looked at each other and did not tell the truth.
I just picked out what I could say and told them.
As for going up the mountain to redeem people, he was in danger and narrowly escaped death. He didn't say anything about it.
Song Xingzhi and Song Helan also tacitly helped cover up.
Song Hexing frowned after hearing this.
"So, your mother-in-law was imprisoned entirely because of her smuggling of Tie Yin, and the Jiang family being implicated in this has nothing to do with you?"
Song Anning smiled and said: "Of course, I don't have that ability. It's not like you don't know how capable your daughter is. I really hate them for lying to me. It's a pity that I can't retaliate against them. I can only ask for a divorce letter." Book, and then expose the evil deeds they have done, so that the world can see their faces clearly. As for the downfall of the Jiang family, it is entirely because they will kill themselves for their unjust actions, and it has nothing to do with their daughter."
Song Hexing nodded.
"That's fine. Only when they fall can I let out my bad breath."
When he thought about his daughter being deceived in this way, he was so angry that he couldn't sleep all night.
Shen Jiao also said: "Don't think so much now that you are back. People, you have to look forward. Treat the past as if it was bitten by a dog. Although our Song family is a family of merchants, we cannot compare with the status of those officials." Gao, but we have money, Ning Ning will live at home from now on, we can buy whatever you want, and do whatever you like, wouldn’t it mean that we would live a happier life than those women from official families?”
As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Now I can see that no matter how noble or noble or official, they are not important to Ning Ning. If I meet a considerate and caring person in the future, it doesn't matter who he is, as long as he is important to us Ning Ning." OK, I will allow him to be my son-in-law."
These words made Song Anning blush with embarrassment.
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
Song Xingzhi and Song Helan also laughed.
Shen Jiao glared at them.
"Why are you laughing? Am I wrong? You are too, you are not young anymore. Even if I kiss you one by one, you won't go. The boss only knows how to immerse himself in business, and the second brother is tinkering with your medicinal materials all day long. Seeing that all the good girls have been picked by others, why don't you worry, oh, I'm so angry..."
She followed her chest, as if she was really angry.
Song Xingzhi and Song Helan stood up quickly, pinched their shoulders and hammered their legs, doing their best to flatter them, just asking their mother to let them go for the time being and allow them to start their careers without discussing the marriage.
The whole family was laughing and having fun, and the whole dining room was filled with their cheerful laughter.
Beijing.
In the bright palace, Jiang Hua knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and prostrated respectfully on the ground.
Emperor Duanming was sitting at the top, holding a white jade chess piece in his hand, playing chess with Anyuan Hou Linbi.
He said calmly: "According to what you said, this iron-clad matter was caused by your own righteousness and annihilation of relatives, so you personally exposed it?"
Jiang Hua said in fear: "The common people dare not talk nonsense. Although the Qin family is the adoptive mother of the common people, it involves the interests of the family and the country. The common people know what is more important and which is less important, so they dare not protect her."
Emperor Duanming looked at him and smiled lightly: "But how come I heard from the statement presented by Yan'er that it was only after he sent people to follow him for a long time that he caught him?"
Jiang Hua said: "Master Pei has good intentions and is afraid that the common people will stain his reputation by exterminating relatives for righteousness, so he covers it up for the common people. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"So it is."
Emperor Duanming narrowed his eyes slightly, not sure whether he believed it or not. He just smiled at Anyuan Hou and said, "You did give birth to a good son."
Anyuan Hou stood up quickly and bowed respectfully.
"It was His Majesty's magnanimity and grace that spared the Jiang family and prevented Hua'er from being implicated. I am deeply grateful to Your Majesty."
The emperor smiled.
Throwing the chess piece into the chess box, he stood up and walked over to hold Anyuanhou's hand. As he walked out, he said: "Okay, there is no need to say those hypocritical and polite words in front of me. We are both monarchs and ministers, and we are also relatives. In terms of seniority, you have to call me cousin, so your son is my nephew. How can I not be magnanimous to my nephew?"
As he spoke, he waved back, "Lin Qing, come too."
Jiang Hua quickly stood up and followed quickly.
The emperor took Anyuan Hou Linbi and Jiang Hua to the tower outside.
He looked at the lights of the imperial city in the night and asked, "Has the last name been changed? Has it been included in the family tree?"
Lin Bi cautiously said, "Come in, although his biological mother has passed away, An was very respectful to me when he was alive, and now that Hu'er is no longer alive, I want to avoid the other brothers in the house from fighting, and I want to ask for your majesty's decree. I would like to ask your majesty for your permission to make Qing'er the crown prince."
The emperor raised his eyebrows.
"Not long after Lin Qing came back, he became the heir apparent. Your other sons may not be convinced."
Anyuanhou looked helpless.
"Of course I'm not convinced, but the position of the heir apparent depends on oneself, and it's not someone who can win if he's not convinced."
He paused and sighed: "Your Majesty, I dare to tell you the truth. I also know that Qing'er has just returned to the capital and his foundation is unstable. If he is appointed as the heir apparent at this time, it will definitely cause discord among the brothers. However, Without him, can they live in peace?"
