Chapter 139 New Year Greetings
Song Guang was in the outer study room, checking the news with Qu Xin.
The servants reported, "The eldest girl is back, injured. They say Princess Jiaping beat her."
"Good, very good." Song Guang was satisfied.
But he didn't ask much about Song Yuzhen's injury.
"Is my sister's injury serious?" Song Zhang was very concerned.
The servant stammered and couldn't say anything.
When they saw the eldest girl coming back alone, they knew that it was the princess who beat her, so they hurried to reply.
"Grandfather, uncle, I'm going to see my sister." Song Zhang was a little worried.
"If she's injured, your mother and the court doctor are here, so you don't need to go there in person." Song Guang disagreed.
He knew that Song Zhang was a kind child, but someone who wanted to accomplish great things should not be so indecisive and sentimental.
Song Zhang hesitated, and finally sat back down under his grandfather's oppressive gaze.
"The princess won't let you serve as an official in the imperial court, but you are a top scholar, so your ability to write memorials is better than that of ordinary officials. How do you think you should write this memorial?"
Song Guang asked about Qu Xian.
The memorial he was referring to was, of course, accusing Qu Ling of being unfilial.
Nothing is more convincing than what is written by one's own father.
Qu Xi didn't feel the slightest bit of shame.
He had wanted to do this for a long time.
But I can't find any evidence against Qu Ling.
This daughter is not his daughter, but a demon that crawled out of hell.
Qu Xi's face showed an expression of being flattered.
"Don't worry, father-in-law. I will write the memorial and hand it over to the Imperial Censor Ma."
Seeing that he didn't plead for his daughter, Song Guang took the initiative to comfort him, "You don't have to feel guilty. We are not targeting Qu Ling. She is so close to the princess, so we can only tear a hole in her."
He patted Qu Xi's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, once the situation stabilizes, I will definitely let you return to the court."
I am very grateful to you.
The three of them were discussing the current situation in the court in the study, and time flew by.
The tranquility was broken by the servant's hurried, panting voice, "Master, Princess Jia'an brought a lot of boxes, saying she wanted to pay you New Year's greetings, and you must come and see the New Year's gifts in person."
The first person to have the smile froze was Qu Xian.
How come she actually came?
Is she crazy?
"I knew she would come." The wound on Song Yuzhen's hand had been treated.
"Then should we go and take a look?" Liu couldn't understand why her daughter was smiling so happily.
"No," Song Yuzhen stood up and walked into the room. "I'm injured, tired, and need to rest."
Liu said, "But now that she's here, aren't we going to entertain her?"
"Mom, she's not here to pay New Year's greetings."
Song Yuzhen felt that her mother was too simple-minded and patiently explained.
"She came to show her grandfather what she can do."
"No way," Liu exclaimed, "She's so young, and she dares to challenge your grandfather?"
"Is it still not enough?" Song Yuzhen said.
"Yujin, my grandmother, and my aunt, all grew in her hands."
The eldest aunt in the palace is also sick.
From Guoqing Temple to the old lady's birthday party, and then to the turmoil surrounding Qu Ling's arranged marriage.
On the surface, it seems to be the eldest princess's trick, but in fact, it is closely related to Qu Ling.
Song Yuzhen figured this out when he was riding back home on horseback.
No wonder my grandfather sent someone to kill her.
Because my grandfather had already seen clearly that Qu Ling was not simple.
Song Yuzhen had to admit that old ginger is still wiser.
From now on, her opponent is not just Zhao Yuanrong.
Liu still looked confused.
Song Yuzhen didn't want to say anything more.
"Mom, please stay with me."
She pulled Liu inside.
Liu really wanted to go out and take a look, but seeing that her daughter needed her company, she gave up.
Song Yuzhen didn't really want to sleep, he just didn't want to join in the fun.
"Go and ask around, and report back if you have any news."
She ordered the maid.
Liu knew that her daughter was very opinionated, so she didn't ask any more questions and just stayed with her.
Song Yuzhen smiled.
Either it was Grandfather who killed Qu Ling, or Qu Ling who angered Grandfather to death.
She will be very happy.
Qu Ling sat in the Song family's carriage and stopped at the Song family's gate.
"I said, what's going on with your Song family?"
Guanqi was a quick-witted talker and started shouting while standing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Since you sent someone to pick up my princess, why did you just leave behind a carriage?"
The gatekeeper was sweating profusely and didn't dare show up. He stretched his neck to see why the housekeeper hadn't arrived yet.
"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and open the door! Our princess is here to pay New Year's greetings."
The sound of watching chess is loud.
He pointed to the dozen or so boxes behind him and said, "The princess also brought many gifts."
Qu Ling got off the carriage and looked up at the Song family's door plaque.
If only we could get it down today.
"Hurry, let the princess in." The housekeeper finally came.
He received the master's order and let the person in.
Qu Ling waved his hand, and more than twenty strong guards carried the boxes and walked in.
"Princess, what are you pretending to be?" the housekeeper asked with a stiff upper lip.
He was very scared.
What if there are knives and guns inside? Once he goes in, he will definitely be the first one to die because of these strong men holding weapons.
"This is the New Year gift I carefully prepared for Master Song."
Qu Ling patted the box.
Only then did the butler hear that there seemed to be noises coming from the dozen or so boxes.
His face changed.
"Princess, I'll have someone carry me to the kitchen."
He could tell what was inside.
"Why are you in such a hurry?" Qu Ling smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with cunningness. "Of course, your Excellency has to come and see this princess's New Year gift in person."
"What are you doing here?"
Qu Qin came hurriedly and scolded him harshly.
"I'm here to wish Mr. Song a happy new year," Qu Ling said, his smile growing even brighter. "They've already sent someone to invite him, and everyone knows about it."
"Get out of here." Qu Xi was furious.
He had just drafted a memorial in his mind, but how could he write it?
Qu Xian started to curse, "You bastard..."
"ah--"
Su Shang attacked and twisted Qu Xi's fingers, causing him to swallow back all the words in pain.
"Where is Lord Song?"
Qu Ling didn't even give him a glance and stared at the butler and asked.
"In...in the outer study." The butler stammered.
He had already considered whether he should have her kicked out.
But she came to pay New Year's greetings, and she is a princess. If we kick her out, it will only ruin the reputation of the Song family.
"Take my New Year gift and follow me to the outer study."
Qu Ling raised his foot to leave.
"Cousin, please wait," Song Zhang hurried over and stopped her. "Grandfather is very happy that you came to pay New Year's greetings. Please leave the New Year's gift. I will take you to see Grandfather."
He looked at the dozen or so boxes and cages, listened to the strange noises coming from inside, and his face looked unhappy.
Qu Ling took a step forward and spoke each word with emphasis, "This princess said that she would personally deliver it to Master Song."
Her aura was totally unlike that of a teenage girl, and Song Zhang felt three inches shorter than her.
"Mr. Song, please move aside." Qu Ling said coldly.
Qu Qi pushed through the crowd and yelled angrily, "Don't you want to die? How dare you act so presumptuously here!"
There is a tall table in the corridor with a vase of blooming plum blossoms on it.
The fragrance is refreshing.
Qu Ling picked up the vase with her backhand, raised it high, and smashed it on her father's head with all her strength.
She was really annoyed with this old guy.
I've tolerated him for a long time.
Blood flowed down Qu Xi's forehead, his eyes rolled back, and the world became quiet.
