Su Mu didn't expect Yang Jing to come, to be precise, he didn't expect him to send her out of the pavilion behind his back as Su Wan's natal brother.

You know, by doing this, it is equivalent to tacitly acquiescing that the Yang family will stand behind Su Wan.Be her backer.

Su Mu felt that this was probably just his own idea.Because Yang Shang, the current King of Anjun in the Yang family, is a very conservative person. He has never stood in line, and has always tried to show the style of a direct minister, that is, he is only loyal to the emperor.

The joy of welcoming the relatives stopped outside the door, and the officials from the Ministry of Rites who came to greet the relatives had already dismounted.

When the prince gets married, even the concubine will not welcome him personally, and always choose someone from the Ministry of Rites to replace him.

The master of ceremonies began to sing, and according to the procedure, Yang Jing walked out with Su Wan carrying the phoenix crown and Xiapei on her back.

People outside the door went up to greet them and started to congratulate. Su Mu stood on the outside, neither sad nor happy, just watching indifferently like a passerby.

At this moment, a maid nimbly squeezed into the crowd, she rushed to Yang Jing's side, and whispered something in Su Wan's ear.

Su Wan raised her head suddenly, and Yang Jing yelled in pain.

Yu-shi next to her immediately supported Su Wan, and pushed her head down forcefully.Then he laughed and whispered something to Yang Jing.

The people around were a little strange, but no one paid any attention to it, and they all performed festively with all their strength.

When Su Mu saw the maid quietly withdrawing from the crowd, the smile on her face was both triumphant and vicious.

Mrs. Yu was busy comforting Su Wan, and didn't have time to take care of her, so the maid walked out of Su's mansion, which was full of holes like a sieve.

Even packed a few Fuguo.

If I remember correctly, it must be the person next to Wei Shu.

The bride has gone out, and the sending off at her natal home is almost over.Su Mu resigned from the banquet, and left the Su family in a stroll.

When Fan Lou and Xia Houzhe met, he probably knew what the maid said.

"The third prince really went to pick up Wei Shu?" Su Mu felt a little unbelievable: "Instead of picking up his wife, he went to meet the concubine instead. What does the third prince think?"

They are now located in a box on the second floor of Tianzi Building, with good privacy.

Xia Houzhe pushed the freshly made pastry in front of Su Mu: "Taste it."

Su Mu twisted a piece and stuffed it into his mouth. Seeing that he didn't answer, he simply speculated: "Gao Yu is trying to please both sides. The position of the main wife has been arranged by the emperor, and it is Xiang Wei who went to pick up Wei Shu in person." The Duke expressed his attitude. Tsk, the abacus is quite loud."

Xia Houzhe smiled inexplicably: "Unfortunately, it is not so easy to please both sides. Maybe, in the end, everyone will be offended."

Su Mu raised his eyebrows, leaned slightly closer and lowered his voice: "Do you know the inside story?"

Xia Houzhe also imitated him and said in a low voice: "Well, do you want to hear it?"

Su Mu said in a lower voice: "Don't talk about love, don't talk about falling down."

Xia Houzhe looked at the uncooperative person helplessly, the two looked at each other, and finally laughed out loud at the same time.

In fact, Xia Houzhe didn't need to say anything, Su Mu also roughly understood the inside story.In the current court, the second prince and the third prince are in the limelight. Relying on their literary and military fame, they have the momentum to overwhelm the seventh prince.

Although the ranking of the seventh prince is much different from the previous two, in fact he is only two years younger than the third prince.

It's a pity that in the past two years, he had to suffer more than the previous brothers in many things.

Seniors and young are orderly, brothers and friends are respectful.

The undercurrent under the court has never stopped.No matter how serious the natural and man-made disasters outside are, when it comes to the court, they are just chess pieces that can be used to overthrow the opponent.

The third prince thought he could please both sides, but in fact Duke Wei had given up on that daughter long ago.His chips were suppressed by his son.

So no matter how Gao Yu tried to save face for Wei Shu, it was neither painful nor itchy for him.

Perhaps the only benefit is that Wei Shu's mother, Mrs. Zheng, had a rift with her own sister Zheng Guifei.

Perhaps the mother always cared more about the child than the father, Su Mu saw from the information submitted by Jiajiu that Mrs. Zheng had made a fuss in Concubine Zheng's palace some time ago.

The reason is that she accused Concubine Zheng of not taking Wei Shu's matter to heart at all. If she let it go, the emperor should have ordered Wei Shu and Xia Houzhe to marry him a long time ago.

If marriage was granted, there would be no such troubles at all, and Wei Shu would not be so wronged.

Faced with this accusation, Concubine Zheng certainly did not admit it, and even felt that Mrs. Zheng was making trouble for no reason.

Who is Xia Houzhe? He is the only son of the God of War Xia Houling and the emperor's sister.Doesn't she want to marry off her niece?

Not only did she want to, she could even say that she couldn't wait.If Wei Shu really married, half of the huge piece of fat from the Changying Army would have fallen into the Zheng family's mouth.

But in fact, it is not that simple to manage Xia Houzhe's marriage.

Leaving aside the orders of the parents, there is huge resistance from Emperor Zhaohe alone.

Emperor Zhaohe was unwilling to grant a marriage, and he even faintly revealed his unwillingness to marry Xia Houzhe.Concubine Zheng Gui tried a few times, and she was a little terrified when she came up with this idea.

Because it is easy to understand that if Xia Houzhe never gets married, then he will have no offspring.

Without descendants, the Changying Army held in the hands of Xiahou's family would naturally belong to the imperial court.

It can be said that this is the simplest, most peaceful and cleanest solution.

There is no future trouble, and the royal family will not bear any infamy.

Therefore, with these enlightenments, Concubine Zheng dared to make great efforts to promote Wei Shu and Xia Houzhe's marriage.

Because her interests are actually consistent with Emperor Showa.She hoped that the Seventh Prince could succeed to the throne, and after the Seventh Prince succeeded, he would be the next Emperor Showa.The Changying Army controlled by a different surname will always be a threat in the hearts of those in power.

Now it is the threat of Emperor Showa, if it is not eliminated, it will become the threat of the Seventh Prince in the future.

But Concubine Zheng would not tell Mrs. Zheng these reasons, she just prevaricated with some reasons.

Although Mrs. Zheng is not as transparent as her elder sister, she still has a bit of intuition that she should have.

When Mrs. Zheng found out that she was dismissed like a fool, her violent temper made her explode on the spot.

Concubine Zheng honorably followed in the footsteps of the third prince, covering her face with a veil for a full month.

Mrs. Zheng, on the other hand, had the same approach as the Yu family. On the eve of her daughter's wedding, she had to pray and chant scriptures in the ancestral hall.

Thinking of those crazy things, Su Mu felt that he was really eye-opening.In the scriptures he wrote in the past, the description of the back house was always mentioned briefly.But now, he feels that he can try to write a house fighting essay.

And the level of excitement is definitely no less than any frontal battle.

Xia Houzhe looked at Su Mu who was staring at the pastry and laughed inexplicably, and knocked on the table helplessly: "Come back to your senses, the person Li Songhe invited is here."

Their boxes are located in the center, and when they open the windows on the side of the corridor, they can see the people on the left, right and opposite.

Fanlou pays attention to privacy, but Tianzilou is somewhat loose.Because the people who came were all relatives of the emperor, there was no need to emphasize it at all in the store, so naturally no one would be ignorant.

Jiajiu received the information that Li Songhe, as a businessman, actually had a private room all year round in a skyscraper that specially entertained the royal relatives.

Although it hasn't been found out whose path it took, the information revealed in it is already very large.

Coincidentally, he made an appointment to meet here today.

Xia Houzhe brought people over since the morning, mainly to wait for Su Mu, and secondly to see who Li Songhe was meeting with.

The person who came first was the person who notified the target to appear, and after a while, a person came up from the steps.

It was a woman, dressed in the most common attire of a noblewoman in Beijing, with a veiled cap on her head. She didn't seem to have anything worth noting, she was just the most ordinary lady of a great family.

Except for one thing, she was alone.

But this is the fatal point, because no lady of that family will appear alone.Even in the most private moments, she will have a useful maid by her side.

Su Mu and the two didn't look too much, they naturally lowered their heads and talked.The lady's eyes seemed to scan the surroundings, and after a moment's pause, she entered the third wing.

That is, the room where Li Songhe is.

The door of the third wing was closed again, and Su Mu and Xia Houzhe exchanged expressions.

"Have you seen it?"

Xia Houzhe shook his head simply: "I don't know."

Su Mu was thoughtful: "Why do I feel...I've seen it before."

"You'll know if you've seen it later."

Since this lady appeared, the people of Xiahou Mansion have followed her back, and it won't be long before they will naturally know her identity.

It didn't take long, but within a quarter of an hour, the lady's brief background was presented.

Su Mu had indeed seen her before, she was the one who was talking to Mrs. Shanzhang at the gate of Lanling Academy on the snowy day.The mother of Tanhualang Yue Linxi, the wife of Yue Xiao, the servant of the Ministry of Punishment——Yue Linshi.

Her maiden name is Lin Luju.

Su Mu had a premonition that the reason why Li Songhe was so kind to Yue Linxi that he had been puzzled for a long time was about to be unraveled.

Inside compartment three.

After Lin Luju closed the door, she looked at the middle-aged man sitting in front of the table, motionless.

"Silly girl, if you don't come, your cake will be cold."

Hearing these words, Lin Luju suddenly bent down, covered her face behind the hood and choked up, and said, "Brother."

Li Songhe, who was originally calm, seemed to be stunned when he heard this address.He looked at the trembling Lin Luju, opened his mouth, and responded softly after a while: "Hey, brother is here."

Hearing his response, Lin Luju suddenly took off her hat, wiped away her tears, and growled: "You are here! When did you come here! You have disappeared for 13 years Lin Hesong! Do you know that before your father died? He didn't even close his eyes, he was worried about you and he couldn't let you go, he didn't want to die!"

After yelling, Lin Luju slowly collapsed on the ground, staring at Li Songhe in a daze: "Why don't you go home."

Li Songhe, who was sitting at the table, seemed to be nailed in place, and all the expressions on his face disappeared, as if he had been wearing a fake face before.

"Because I can't go back." Li Songhe's voice was flat and straightforward: "I don't want to die, and I don't want you to die either. So, I can't go back."

"When Dad died, I was behind the big house at home. I watched you send him up the mountain. I was there when you gave birth to Xiaoxi. Remember the doctor Yue Xiao invited? I arranged for him to go, and , the little apprentice next to him holding the medicine box is me."

"Besides the midwife, I am the first person in this world to hug Lin Xi."
