Pei Qiuyun waved at her, and when she came to her, she took her hand and looked her up and down, "Fourth brother has always had his own ideas. I heard that you and I are now living in harmony. I am very relieved to hear that. If Silang bullies you, come and tell me, and I will take care of it for you."
"Thank you, Princess Guanzhou. Silang treated me very well."
Pei Qiuyun nodded slightly, "It's great for a couple to live in harmony. Even a fortune can't buy a harmonious family."
After saying that, he took Song Guanzhou's arm and sat down next to him.
"Fourth brother's wife, you and Silang have been married for three years, I think?"
Song Guanzhou thought, is the birth going to happen again?
Sighing was useless, so he could only put on a shy fake smile and agreed, "To answer the County Princess, it's been three years."
"Excellent, excellent."
Then he asked about the family affairs. Pei Qiuyun sighed, "Mother is cultivating herself now. I can only rely on you three sisters for all the trivial matters in the mansion."
He said this to the three of them, but was looking at Song Guanzhou.
"I have to rely on my eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to manage the household. I am not very capable, so I am lucky enough not to cause more trouble."
Hey!
Pei Qiuyun sighed and looked at Song Guanzhou. "It's okay for your elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law to work harder, but why are you so thin?"
After talking for a few words about things in the mansion, they unknowingly turned the topic to Song Guanzhou.
To be honest, Pei Qiuyun was also gentle, and Song Guanzhou became more and more alert, but now he had to cheer up and deal with it.
"Thank you, Princess, for your concern. This year has not been a peaceful one. I have been injured several times and have been sick twice. Although I am well now, I still need to take care of myself."
Hearing this, Qi Yueniang also smiled and spoke up to support Song Guanzhou.
"It was very cold at the beginning of the year and I fell into the water. I was injured several times afterwards. It was really bad luck. I even said I would go to the temple to worship the Buddha after the New Year."
Xiao Yinxiu heard this and smiled faintly.
"Eldest sister, you don't know. We were going to Longen Temple to worship the Buddha and pray for safety. But we don't know if it was because our fourth sister-in-law was unlucky or the thieves were too rampant, but they almost got into trouble. Because of this, the fourth brother was almost scared to death."
After saying that, he covered his mouth and smiled.
When Pei Qiuyun heard this, her face was immediately filled with worry. She asked a few questions in detail and kept saying "Amitabha".
She held Song Guanzhou's hand and seemed to be very distressed about his wife. She was very concerned about her. She asked about the doctor and comforted her, caring about her more than her own sister.
Song Guanzhou thought to himself, Pei Qiuyun has been married into the Prince's Mansion for many years, how could her personality become so good?
Then I thought again, I was probably worrying too much. It is difficult to change one’s nature, and I must not look down on the past. Maybe..., I should use courtesy first and then force.
Pei Chen went to pay a visit to Liu Ke first. He was his brother-in-law and nephew, and they had never gotten along well. After saying a few words reluctantly, Pei Chen wanted to leave, but Liu Ke became curious and stopped him.
"Please sit down. I haven't been to Beijing for quite some time. I never thought it would be so lively. Tell me, what happened in the robbery at Longen Temple?"
Hey!
Pei Chen never thought that such a thing would spread to southern Yunnan.
Liu Ke was nonchalant. He took a sip of hot tea and sneered, "What's so strange about this? The capital has been much more peaceful in recent years. Suddenly, a murder happened in the royal temple. How fresh! And the murderer was after the fourth son's wife——"
Pei Chen had no choice but to say what he could with a bitter face.
Liu Ke frowned, "Is Jingzhao Prefecture just sitting there doing nothing? They can't even find out what's going on with this kind of thing."
Pei Chen shook his head. "It has become an unsolved case. Lao Si has been asking about the progress from time to time, but he only said that the accomplice has fled and is nowhere to be found."
"No one was caught alive?"
Pei Chen shook his head. "There were only three thieves in total, two of whom were killed on the spot by the guards of the mansion."
Liu Ke shook his head. "I have seen the wife of the Fourth Brother. Song Xinglu hid her from the capital and did not allow the playboys in the capital to see her. She is a good-looking girl, but I have never heard that she offended anyone..."
Pei Chen tried to smooth things over, "I'm afraid it's not the enemy of my fourth brother's wife. How can an ordinary woman have a grudge against someone who kills her? The thief must have happened to find her alone, and she is a wealthy lady, so he was tempted by her wealth..."
"Don't fool me. The eldest daughter of the Jin family... isn't she attracted to the fourth child?"
Uh--
Liu Ke is muddleheaded, but that doesn’t mean he is stupid.
These foreign princes and dukes have at least fifty spies in the capital. Even if there is any disturbance in the capital, they can hear the general idea from thousands of miles away.
"Prince, these are just rumors. The fourth son got married a long time ago, and the Jin family... is also going to marry Prince Yong."
whispering sound!
Liu Ke waved his hands, "No wonder Miss Jin is unhappy about this marriage. To be honest, it's because the general is so cruel. He Jiang is not good enough to begin with, yet he dares to force a legitimate daughter into the marriage."
Having said that, his face was full of sly smile.
She leaned close to Pei Chen's ear and said, "Don't tell me, don't you know?"
Pei Chen had no idea what Liu Ke meant and could only shake his head, "I wonder what the prince means..." Liu Ke chuckled and whispered to Pei Chen.
"impossible?"
Pei Chen rarely showed surprise, and immediately said seriously, "Brother-in-law, you know that I often hang out outside, but the matter you mentioned has not been rumored in brothels or theaters."
He Jiang doesn’t like women?
impossible!
Liu Ke patted his shoulder lightly, his face full of disgust.
"Where do you hang out every day? You love pretty girls, but others like boys. Besides, He Jiang raises his own children, which is very different from you who eat whatever is served to you."
"Brother-in-law, if that's true, then General Jin is really willing to give up this girl."
After all, they are my biological children!
"whispering sound!"
Liu Ke waved his hand. "I haven't seen this girl from the Jin family for many years, but I've heard a lot that she has some talent. I've heard that she can do business and manage the household, and she's in charge of everything. But, this woman shouldn't be allowed to do too much. Look, in the general's mansion, apart from her, there's no one who can hold the place together."
Others may not know, but General Jin's concubines can give birth to a bunch of sons but not a daughter. This is also very strange.
Prince Yong is a very handsome man, but I never thought he would have such a hobby in private."
"Humph! You thought his former princess died of some unknown cause, and she couldn't stand being a widow, so she died of anger."
Whoops!
Pei Chen frowned, "He Jiang can't sleep with a woman..."
Liu Ke smiled playfully and shook his head. "I heard that he was harmed by his brother when he was a child in the Dongjun Royal Court. He has disliked women ever since."
At this point, Liu Ke yawned, his face full of disdain, "You are the uncle of my girls after all. When your eldest sister wants to arrange marriages for her sisters, you can take the initiative and take a look. She can't stand my subordinates all day long, and only hopes to send her daughter to marry in Beijing."
Pei Chen nodded, "As long as my brother-in-law tells me to do it, Pei Er will do it without hesitation. I'm just afraid that my elder sister has a righteous mind, and she won't listen to what a playboy like me says."
