Chapter 321 Extra Chapter: Commoner Song Kaishan (Part 3)

Song Kaishan stood up in disbelief, looking at Song Zhimian with a hint of fear.

"What did you say? You killed Cai Boju? You killed Cai Boju? How is that possible?" Song Kaishan didn't believe it at all.

He had originally planned this very well. Cai Boju was the only son of the old Marquis of Wu'an. The old generals in the north and the old Marquis of Wu'an were sworn brothers. Cai Boju could stay in the north by taking on the job of escorting grain and fodder.

For the sake of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, General Shen will definitely keep Cai Boju by his side. In time, Cai Boju will have a place in the north.

Over time, Song Kaishan will also have the opportunity to go to Weiyuan Army, and his son, who is already in Weiyuan Army, will also have the opportunity to advance a few steps.

Consort Wu in the palace also had the idea of ​​marrying the emperor's most beloved Princess Shou Kang to Cai Boju.

Cai Boju can be said to have a very promising future...

Unexpectedly, an ordinary birthday banquet at the princess's villa led to Cai Boju's death...

With Cai Boju's death, all their previous plans were disrupted, and those who went to the north became members of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion...

Song Kaishan had also wondered who had killed Cai Boju. He thought of the Crown Prince and the Prince of Qi, as no one else could have harmed Cai Boju, nor did anyone else have the ability to do so.

But now...

Song Zhimian said that she killed Cai Boju!

“You… how dare you…” Song Kaishan pointed at Song Zhimian with a trembling finger.

“Why wouldn’t I dare! He dared to kill my third uncle’s whole family, is it too much for me to kill only him?” Song Zhimian laughed, tilting her head back.

For the first time, Song Kaishan felt fear.

"You're just a defenseless woman..."

"So what if he's a woman? A woman can kill him too! Song Kaishan, I killed Cai Boju, and everyone in the palace who needs to know this knows it."

You don't think this will have any impact on me if it gets out, do you?

Don't forget the evil deeds Cai Boju committed! Every single one of them was outrageous and despicable. He deserved to die!

And I also contributed to bringing down the King of Wu, whom you've always followed.

"Song Kaishan, aren't you surprised? Isn't this unexpected?" Song Zhimian still smiled.

Song Kaishan took two steps back. The woman in front of him was definitely not his daughter. How could his timid daughter, who used to only bow her head and shed tears when faced with problems, have done such a thing!

Killing the only son of a marquis, overthrowing a prince... How could he do something that even men couldn't do?

Seeing Song Kaishan like this, Song Zhimian slowly got up and put the gauze hat that was placed to the side on her head.

"I'm telling you this so you understand that you shouldn't bother me anymore. I'll take care of you without anyone knowing."

You are not my father, and I have no concept of father-daughter blood ties. Killing you now is as easy as stepping on an ant.

"Song Kaishan, just behave yourself! Be a good commoner and atone for your uncle's family's sins every day, and maybe you won't die such a terrible death in the future."

After saying this, Song Zhimian turned and left.

Song Kaishan didn't dare to stop them; he could see that among the people who came out with Song Zhimin, there were some with extraordinary skills.

This daughter... has reached a point where he can only look up to her.

Later, when Song Kaishan became a commoner, he would subconsciously inquire about news from the palace and about his daughter.

Gradually, news about Song Zhimian reached his ears.

The emperor abdicated, the empress ascended the throne, and Song Zhimian became the empress's personal maid...

This Lady Song was highly trusted by the Empress, and even Lin Xiang, the head of all officials, treated her with courtesy.

Then, the Empress gave birth, and the Prince of Qi returned to the capital to become regent. A few years later, the Empress abdicated in favor of her grandson, the Crown Prince…

...

In the past two years, Song Kaishan has heard about some things happening in the capital while working in the fields.

What kind of regent would hand over all the reins of power to His Majesty for the sake of a woman?

Some people even said that the Regent Prince was enjoying himself immensely with that woman, sightseeing in the Great Yu region...

All the women in the capital envied the woman who caught the Regent's eye. Everyone knew that the Regent had remained unmarried for that woman, and that once she married into the palace, she would become the Regent's Consort.

Who would have thought that the woman was actually Song Zhimian?

Song Kaishan sat in the courtyard, his mind filled with only one sentence.

Song Zhimian is going to be the Regent's Consort!

Song Zhimian is his daughter!

After Ding finished her work, she came over and saw Song Kaishan still sitting in the courtyard. She finally couldn't help but speak up.

"Honey, if you need to rest, then rest early. After you've rested, hurry up and go to the fields to pull up all the weeds."

Old Wang next door said that with the abundant rainfall these past two days, not only are the crops growing wildly, but the weeds are also growing like crazy.

"If we don't clear the weeds, it will affect next year's harvest... What are you doing, man of the house!" Ding looked at Song Kaishan in surprise as he suddenly stood up.

As Song Kaishan walked into the house, he said, "I want to go to the city!"

"What are you doing in the city?" Ding quickly grabbed Song Kaishan's arm.

"Look for my promising daughter! She's about to become the Regent's wife, shouldn't she help out her father a bit?"

I don't want an official position or a title from her; I just want money.

With money, I no longer need to toil in the fields, nor do I have to toil in the fields. I also have money to travel north...

She has to give me money this time, since I'm a commoner now and have no face left.

If she doesn't want people to know she has a commoner father, she'd better give me lots of money!

Don't stop me. I'll go inside, change my clothes, and then head into the city. If I go now, I can still make it back before the city gates close.

As Song Kaishan spoke, he pushed Ding Shi aside and walked into the house.

Ding looked at Song Kaishan with a look of horror.

Has he gone mad? He actually wants to go find that daughter at this time? How could he possibly control that daughter now?!

"Husband, are you crazy? Song Zhimian is cunning. Even a prince is no match for her and suffered a loss at her hands. How can you still want to provoke her?" Ding Shi held onto Song Kaishan tightly.

"I'm not crazy! She's my daughter, that's a fact. If she doesn't take care of her, I'll be struck by lightning! The higher her status, the more she cares about her reputation."

All I need is money; a little bit that slips through her fingers is enough for us to live on.

"What do you know, you're just a woman!" Song Kaishan said, shoving Ding aside and going inside to rummage through her clothes.

After six years, only a few pieces of clothing remained of the clothes he had brought from the Prince's mansion.

Everything of value was pawned; they were commoners and had no right to wear such clothes.

The remaining clothes...

Song Kaishan suddenly felt a bit dejected. None of the clothes he could find in the house were presentable; almost every piece had patches on them. Wearing such clothes into the city...

"Honey, you can't go! Song Zhimian doesn't like being threatened. Even if she doesn't punish you for the sake of her reputation, she will punish others."

"Have you forgotten our son Yaoqing? He's still in the Weiyuan Army in the North!" Ding stared intently at Song Kaishan.

Song Kaishan's hand paused for a moment...
