In the previous life, it was Lord Protector Qiu Jinhong who fell in love with Song Fuxin, so the marriage was a natural outcome, although Song Fujin did not cherish it. In this life, Qiu Jinhong wanted to be King Cheng's father-in-law, so the marriage was very difficult.
When the official media heard that it was the Qiu family that Song Tuanyuan wanted to propose marriage to, even the official media hesitated.
"Master Qingshan County, have you figured it out? This young lady from the Qiu family is the daughter-in-law that Concubine Shu likes. All the official media in Tiancheng know about it, so no one dares to go to the Qiu family to propose marriage. You let me go
, Isn’t this embarrassing me? And are you sure? If you are rejected, you will offend Concubine Shu and His Highness Prince Cheng!" The official Korean matchmaker hesitated and asked.
"This is the child's wish. I also know that my family is the one who has reached out to the Duke Protector's Palace, but we have to give it a try, right?" Song Tuanyuan said.
The Korean matchmaker sighed: "Master Qingshan County, to be honest, we are really in trouble. You can't take another look at the young ladies in my hands. Several of them are from aristocratic families. In fact, in terms of background, they are no worse than those of the Protector's Palace."
of!"
Song Tuanyuan understood what the Korean matchmaker meant and said with a smile: "My son only likes Miss Qiu, so please trouble the Korean matchmaker to make this trip. If it succeeds, I will pay five times the amount to protect the matchmaker!"
The Korean matchmaker was still in a dilemma: "This is not a matter of money. Now Prince Cheng's Mansion is in full swing..."
The Korean matchmaker thought for a while, then waved her hand: "Master Qingshan County, we really can't guarantee this matchmaker, you'd better hire someone else!"
The Korean matchmaker hurriedly walked out.
Song Tuanyuan sighed, turned around and saw Song Fuxin standing behind him.
"Mother..." Song Fuxin looked a little sad.
"If she doesn't go, someone will go. It'll be okay!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Tuanyuan approached several official media, but they all refused to go. Unexpectedly, the marriage was stuck at the first step.
If the official media refused to go, they would have to find a respectable lady to come forward. Song Tuanyuan had just arrived in Tiancheng, and the county owner was suddenly rewarded by the emperor. He did not move around with other ladies on weekdays, and suddenly he couldn't find a suitable one.
Candidate.
Just when Song Tuanyuan was at a loss what to do, Concubine Fan actually invited Song Tuanyuan to the palace to enjoy the flowers, and the message was posted directly to the Song mansion.
Song Tuanyuan was just a small county head, so naturally he couldn't disobey Concubine Fan Guifei's order, so he simply packed up and took Jiang Long into the palace for the appointment.
Early in the morning, carriages were lined up outside the palace.
Jiang Long went to the front to take a look, got on the carriage very excitedly and said: "Madam, there are dozens of carriages in front of you. Didn't you say that Concubine Fan's son, Prince Liang, was punished in solitary confinement? Concubine Fan still has the heart to do such a grand thing.
What’s the reason for the flower viewing party?”
Song Tuanyuan said: "I don't know about this. Let's abide by our duties and go back as soon as possible after participating. Don't cause trouble and don't inquire casually!"
Song Tuanyuan still had a grudge against Concubine Fan and Prince Liang. Being forced to come to the banquet this time was a helpless move, so she planned to attend the banquet in a decent manner and then go back quickly.
After waiting for a while, the carriage finally entered the palace smoothly.
After arriving at the inner palace gate, the carriage could no longer move, so Song Tuanyuan could only walk with Jiang Long.
There were several ladies from aristocratic families walking together, all with their mothers-in-law and maids. They were a mighty and magnificent group.
Jiang Long looked at it and couldn't help but whisper: "Madam, we should bring Aunt Gong and Aunt Ren. You see, they are bringing so many servants, and you are the only one, so you look a bit shabby!"
Song Tuanyuan glanced at Jiang Long: "You can stand up to the three of them by yourself! What should I be afraid of? Besides, it would be too ostentatious if you bring two nuns with you! We are not here to demonstrate!"
Jiang Long could only nod.
Among the crowd of ladies from that family, Song Tuanyuan saw a familiar figure. She was stunned for a moment, thinking that she might have seen it wrong.
How could the beautiful woman who sought her abortion at that time become the wife of an aristocratic family?
Song Tuanyuan withdrew his eyes and led Jiang Long into the Yilan Hall where Fan Guifei was staying, following the ladies.
It is said that since the death of the prince, the queen has been fasting and praying to Buddha. She has lost all thoughts and rarely cares about the affairs of the palace. Therefore, Concubine Fan has the final say in everything in the palace.
This time, the begonia bloomed in the palace. Concubine Fan took this opportunity to hold a banquet for all the ladies. Naturally, she wanted to show the emperor's love for her and let the people in the court see. Even if Prince Liang temporarily lost power, Fan Guifei
The imperial concubine has the emperor's favor, and the day comes when Prince Liang will turn over.
Yilan Palace is the largest palace except the Queen's Palace. There are banquets in the hall, which can hold hundreds of people.
There will be a nanny leading you at the door. Ask the lady’s rank and she will lead you there.
Song Tuanyuan wanted to find a place to sit in a corner, but she didn't expect that her mother-in-law would take her to the front, not far to the right of Concubine Fan.
Just when Song Tuanyuan was about to ask if her nanny had taken her to the wrong place, she went to greet other ladies.
Song Tuanyuan hesitated for a moment and could only sit down.
After a while, the front and back of Song Tuanyuan slowly filled up with people.
Song Tuanyuan raised his eyes and took a look, and found that he didn't recognize anyone. He was about to lower his eyes and lower his eyebrows, but he noticed two glances coming from the opposite side.
Song Tuanyuan raised his eyes and saw Mu Yundie.
Although Mu Yundie's position is opposite Song Tuanyuan, it has moved down several positions.
The mother-in-law beside Mu Yundie also saw Song Tuanyuan. She was stunned for a moment, lowered her eyes and said to Mu Yundie: "Why is Song Tuanyuan here too?"
"Not only are you here, but you are also sitting at the top!" Mu Yundie whispered, her voice full of resentment.
The mother-in-law said: "She is now the head of Qingshan County, and she is the second rank. Although this rank is just a gimmick, she is indeed above the young lady. I think the nuns who come to Yilan Palace are just ranked according to this rank.
.Let’s see how Fan Guifei arranges it when she comes!”
Mu Yundie tore off the veil in her hand.
After a while, several more people came in front of Mu Yundie, including Qiu Zhuo and Princess Tian.
Song Tuanyuan was a little surprised that the Qiu Zhuo family could come to this banquet. After all, everyone knew about the relationship between Qiu Jinhong and Prince Cheng, and the Qiu Zhuo family was not afraid of the misunderstanding by Prince Cheng and came to the banquet.
Qiu Zhuo came here on her own, with only two maids and a mother-in-law with her, but Qiu Miu Miu was not seen.
Qiu Zhuo's position is just opposite Song Tuanyuan, while Princess Tian's position is above Qiu Zhuo's.
Song Tuanyuan smiled and greeted the two of them.
Qiuzhuo nodded lightly.
Princess Tian smiled and asked, "Doctor Song is here too?"
Song Tuanyuan nodded and said: "Thanks to the imperial concubine for your invitation!"
"That's right, Aunt Song has now become the head of Qingshan County, personally consecrated by the emperor. Her status is different from before. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to see a doctor again!" Mu Yundie suddenly interjected.
, Mrs. Song’s words attracted everyone around her to look at her.
