Su Shunci looked at Su Zhilan in astonishment. The fifth sister is still young. Is she really suitable to listen to these things?

But before she could think more, Song Wanwan started talking.

"Of course, your family doesn't have many people, unlike ours, where we have many servants and many cunning people."

"Let me tell you, there was a maid in my eldest brother's yard. She was my sister-in-law's dowry. But when my sister-in-law got pregnant for the first time, she seduced my eldest brother in the study."

"My eldest brother was not very good either. He just couldn't control himself."

"Later, she became my concubine, and gave birth to a bastard the following year. These are nothing. The key point is that she often sows discord between my eldest brother and my sister-in-law."

"My sister-in-law has always respected my eldest brother and let him do whatever he wants. But eventually my mother couldn't stand it anymore and killed him."

Su Zhilan listened to these stories as if they were a play, and asked, "Are there many people like this? I have never seen one."

A pair of eyes flickered, and the thick eyelashes were slightly curled, shining.

Song Wanwan was talking excitedly, and continued when she asked, "And my third brother used to have a maid who was always kept in the courtyard."

"But my third brother has never been interested in women. Not to mention taking them into his room, he has never even touched them."

"Guess what happened?"

Su Zhilan was intrigued. "What's wrong?"

Song Wanwan was about to continue speaking when she saw a dark figure beside her.

She slowly raised her head and smiled brightly, "Third brother, why are you here?"

Song Hongshen glared at her. "Do you still look like a lady from a noble family? Why do you tell everything to others? Besides..."

He wanted to say, Su Zhilan is so young, how could he tell her these things.

But after thinking about it, he took back the rest of the words.

Although Song Wanwan was not afraid of Song Hongshen, since the real person had arrived, she did not say anything further.

Su Zhilan, on the other hand, sat at the stone table with her chin propped up, looking up at Song Hongshen, "What happened later?"

Song Hongshen: ...

After a long while, he managed to utter, "I'll talk to you alone later."

I don’t know if it was Su Zhilan’s illusion, but I always felt that King Zhongyong looked a little embarrassed.

Su Shunci raised the corners of her lips and glanced back and forth between Song Hongshen and Su Zhilan. She actually felt that these two people were really a perfect match.

Song Wanwan lowered her head and tried to hold back her laughter. It was rare for her third brother to show such an embarrassing state.

She would not easily tell others about these things in the mansion. Ah Ci knew everything she wanted to say, and Zhilan would also know it when she entered the mansion in the future.

Song Wanwan pointed to the stone bench beside her and motioned Song Hongshen to sit down and talk.

Before Song Hongshen sat down, a maid from the Qin family came over to greet him and said, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Loyal and Brave King. Ladies, please start paying your respects."

When they heard that a birthday celebration was going to take place, several people left their seats and went to the main hall to watch the ceremony.

Birthday gifts have already been given to each family, and only the younger generation of the Qin family and the nieces and nephews from the old lady's family came to pay formal birthday greetings.

When they arrived, Emperor Xuande had already entered the palace and was sitting and talking to the old lady.

Seeing that Song Hongshen had been following them, Song Wanwan whispered, "Third brother, you don't have to protect us. Don't worry, I will take good care of this future sister-in-law."

What's the matter with a grown man always following them?

Song Hongshen didn't want to follow them, but he saw that there were so many people around and was afraid of being bumped into.

After hearing what Song Wanwan said, he rolled his eyes at her and went to talk to Su Yuanzhou and Zhang Pan.

Song Wanwan and the others didn't go inside, but stood outside watching the excitement.

When Rong Jin arrived, the birthday celebration was already halfway through.

Song Wanwan said with a smile, "Ms. Rong, have you changed your clothes? This one suits you better."

Rong Jin was planning something big in his mind, so he didn't care much about Song Wanwan's sarcasm and ridicule.

He glanced at her arrogantly and walked past Song Wanwan inside.

The maidservant beside Rong Jin lagged behind by two steps, then quickly caught up. While no one was paying attention, she said to Rong Jin: "Miss, I found something..."

After the birthday celebration, there is a banquet.

The young ladies from each family were settled in the hall beside the water pavilion, and were entertained by two young ladies from the Qin family and their maids.

In addition, there is a drama troupe in the mansion, and those who have eaten can go to listen to the drama.

Needless to say, the Qin family's banquet is first-class in the whole capital.

Song Wanwan and the other two sat together, not being restrained at all. They ate and talked, and even drank some chrysanthemum wine.

After dinner, the servants cleared the table and served tea and fruit. The three of them looked out at the lake, drank tea and chatted.

Gu Zhi suddenly asked Song Wanwan, "Miss, where is the plum blossom hairpin on your head?"

Hearing this, Song Wanwan reached out and touched the back of her head, "It's gone? Maybe it fell somewhere."

The hairpin looked unique, but it wasn't a rare item. So when she found out it had fallen, Song Wanwan didn't care.

After a while, a strange little maid suddenly came over.

He leaned over to Song Wanwan and said, "Miss Song, the King of Loyalty and Bravery asked Miss Song to go to the main hall of Wutong Garden. He is talking to His Royal Highness the King of Pingxi and said he wants to ask you a few questions."

Song Wanwan's expression did not change, and she murmured, "Why are you talking about this in the Qin family? You are too anxious."

After muttering, he waved his hand and said to the maid: "I will be there in a moment, you go down first."

After the little maid left, Song Wanwan told Gu Zhi, "Go find the third brother."

Gu Zhi nodded and walked towards the outer courtyard.

Su Shunci and Su Zhilan were confused and looked at Song Wanwan.

Song Wanwan then whispered about the day when the Second Prince went to propose marriage, and added: "The Second Prince is trying to lead me over."

"Wutong Garden..." She called a maid over and asked, "Is Wutong Garden not far from Hanshan Residence where Your Majesty rests? Is anyone living there?"

The old woman didn't understand why Miss Song asked this, but she still replied, "Yes, the two courtyards are next to each other. Wutong Garden is empty and no one lives there."

Song Wanwan nodded and sent the person away.

Today, when she went to the back garden, the fourth lady of the Qin family happened to introduce her to the layout of the garden. She vaguely remembered that Wutong Garden was very close to Hanshanju.

The second prince really knows how to choose a place. He chose a place close to where the emperor can rest, so that if anything happens, the emperor can come in time.

When a man and a woman are alone in the same room, or something unexpected happens, it will be hard to explain.

Not long after, Gu Zhi also came back. She whispered, "Miss, I didn't find the Third Young Master. Someone said that they saw the Third Young Master being called away by the Second Prince."

Song Wanwan smiled faintly, thinking that the Second Prince was putting on a full show. He knew that she would go to the Third Brother after getting the news, so he made preparations in advance.

It would be fine if she didn't know what the second prince was planning, but she knew everything, so how could she possibly believe him?

Su Shunci probably understood what was going on, so she advised, "Then Sister Wanwan, don't go. Don't fall into his trap."
