After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

Song Mingli lowered his eyes and smiled secretly.

The more nervous I was just now, the happier I am now.

But, well, one can't be proud.

“Your Majesty, you are too kind. The people of our dynasty, who have received the emperor’s great grace, should remember the teachings of the saints and not be involved in supernatural, evil, or secretive things.

"I don't dare to take credit for it, I just did what I had to do."

Song Mingli bowed and said humbly.

Chu Yanchen curled his lips and asked in a low voice, "Do you want an imperial decree or a reward? Choose one."

Hmm? Can I choose the reward?

"I will ask for a reward for you and will speak well of it to my father. Choose quickly."

After Chu Yanchen finished speaking, he was actually a little nervous.

The title of Lady of Imperial Concubine is a kind of honorary reward given by this dynasty to women with talent, virtue and contributions.

It was not just an empty title. Women with the rank of imperial decree could receive salaries from the imperial court.

When a woman has independent financial ability, she will naturally be looked up to by her husband's family.

Secondly, the imperial edict allowed one to enter the palace to attend banquets and even meet the emperor and empress.

At palace banquets, there are many opportunities to make friends with the powerful and influential, which can also be helpful to the careers of the men in the family.

Thirdly, the ladies of the imperial court could also wear small-area phoenix patterns and jewelry, which was a very face-saving thing at any banquet.

If a lady of noble birth breaks the law, the lower-level government offices cannot arrest her directly; they must report to the capital and obtain approval before they can arrest her.

If you count them carefully, there are many benefits to the reward of "Lady with Imperial Concubine's Honor".

But if you get the honor of a lady of imperial decree, you cannot divorce and remarry!

Chu Yanchen stared at Song Mingli without blinking... He clenched his fists lightly, what would she choose?

Song Mingli also thought of the benefits that Chu Yanchen thought of.

If she received the imperial edict, not only Mrs. Sun, but even the old lady would not be able to boss her around and bully her like before.

but……

"I would like to ask for a reward of silver. Thank you, Your Highness!" Song Mingli said softly, and quickly bowed to express her gratitude.

If she received the imperial decree, the Gu family would also be proud.

Why?

She still owes money to Shenglong Money House!

It would be better to ask for a reward of silver so that she can quickly pay back the money she owes to the bank.

The salary from the court is not high, it is better to earn more by doing business.

Chu Yanchen laughed.

Song Mingli secretly glanced at him... She didn't know why, but Prince Jing seemed very happy after hearing her choice.

Could it be that he also felt that it was too arrogant to ask for an imperial decree for such a small matter?

Then he asked?

Are you deliberately setting a trap for her?

"Your Highness, the old woman is not in danger of her life for now, but... she can't speak." The black-armored guard stepped forward and reported.

Chu Yanchen looked at Song Mingli and asked, "Ask your maid... to show mercy?"

Song Mingli looked at Nanxing.

Nan Xing was so anxious that she scratched her head and said, "I've already said that this acupuncture method is the first time I've seen it... I tried it for the first time, and who knew it would be so effective!

"But I just learned it, I can't solve it yet!"

Song Mingli: “…”

Black armor guard: "..."

Chu Yanchen waved his hand, "Forget it, take it away."

Don’t!

Yun Gu widened her eyes, looked at Prince Jing, and then at Song Mingli.

"Don't take me away! I can see it! You two are destined to be together! There is a red thread in your destiny!

"It's just that there are too many entanglements between the red lines! I can solve them! I can solve them!"

Yun Gu opened her mouth wide and screamed in her heart until she was hoarse.

But no sound came out of her mouth. She was extremely anxious, her face turned red, and she was dragged away by the Black Armor Army.

……

When Song Mingli returned to Gu's house from Zhuangzi, he heard the servants say, "The old lady is ill!"

Song Mingli laughed secretly in his heart.

He wasn't sick at all; he was clearly frightened.

Nanny Shi thought she had killed the man, but the "corpse" disappeared.

They didn't know how powerful Yun Gu was and were superstitious about her abilities.

Old Madam Gu believed this very much, and the more she believed it, the more afraid she became.

She probably thought that Yun Gu had escaped on her own, was angry with her, and was hiding in the dark waiting to take revenge on her!

How could they know that Molan was squatting on the beam at the time, and when she saw Nanny Shi turn around and leave...Molan carried Yun Gu and ran away.

Before leaving, she cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground.

The old lady scared herself, so didn't she get sick?

Song Mingli prepared two bowls of bird's nest and came to see the old lady.

Su Yi was serving the old lady by her bedside.

The old lady was very frightened and would not leave anyone by her side.

The Nanny Shi, whom she trusted the most, also fell ill, and Xiangkui was too busy to take care of her, so Su Yi and she took turns to take care of her.

"Grandma, I'm here to see you. I've also stewed your favorite bird's nest for you." Song Mingli stood in front of the old lady's bed with a smile on his face.

"Ah——" Old Madam Gu screamed in fright and covered her head with the quilt.

"Go away! Send her away! I don't want to see her! Send her away!"

Old Madam Gu yelled in her bed.

Song Mingli stood there without moving, looking at the old lady seriously.

In her previous life, she had never seen the old lady so flustered and out of control.

This is the first time I’ve seen it in my life, so I have to take a good look at it.

"Grandma, it's me, I'm Mingli!"

"Ah... drive her away! Drive her away!"

"Cousin, my grandmother is sick and may not be able to recognize people. Why don't you go out first?" Su Yi wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and asked Song Mingli to leave like a hostess.

Song Mingli sighed and looked at Su Yi gently, "I should have been the one to serve my grandmother, but you and I are the ones who have to work so hard, my cousin. Thank you for your hard work."

The smile on Su Yi's face suddenly froze.

She originally thought that it was an honor for her to serve the old lady.

Why did she feel tired and like a sucker after Song Mingli said that?

"Grandma, you have a good rest. I'm going to leave first," Song Mingli said softly, "I stewed the bird's nest for you according to your recipe. Remember to drink it!"

"Ah! I don't want to drink! Take it away! Take it away quickly!" Old Madam Gu was shivering in the quilt.

Ah.

Song Mingli smiled secretly, saying that people should not do things that would make them feel guilty.

Look how scared the old lady is.

The bird's nest she sent was very clean.

Song Mingli also took a handkerchief, wiped the corners of his eyes, and followed Su Yi's instructions and went outside.

Gu Qingshan also happened to arrive.

Seeing Song Mingli here, his eyes lit up and he immediately stepped forward.

"I heard that grandma is sick? Mingli, don't worry too much. Grandma has always been in good health. She will be fine!"

It seemed that Gu Qingshan only had Song Mingli in his eyes. As soon as he came forward, he just talked to her and comforted her.

Su Yi, who was standing aside, almost bit her teeth to pieces.

She is the one who serves the old lady!

She was woken up before dawn this morning and was fed medicine and food.

Not only did the old lady refuse to cooperate, she also knocked over the food and even spat at her, saying that she was a harmful little goblin.

Instead of feeling sorry for her or being grateful to her, her cousin just kept comforting Song Mingli! ?

Song Mingli came over to give a bird's nest and then turned around and left!

Has she made any contribution?

Su Yi was so angry that she broke two of her nails.

Song Mingli caught a glimpse of Su Yi's face twisted with anger, and couldn't help but lower his eyes and smile secretly.

When she looked up again, her eyes were filled with tears.

"Well, now that the prince has said that, I feel relieved. Grandmother has always loved me, and I should serve her...

"It's a pity that grandma didn't recognize me, she only recognized my cousin! Fortunately, my cousin was there, serving grandma without taking off her clothes!

"Thank you for your hard work, cousin. You have done your filial duty for us. The prince must thank you very much!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qingshan quickly turned around and bowed to Su Yi, "Thank you, cousin."

Su Yi: “…”

She wanted Gu Lang to see her good side, praise her, recognize her, and be grateful to her!

But... he wasn't here to thank her on behalf of him and Song Mingli, the couple! What was this?
