Chapter 39 The Third Sister Smashes the Ancestral Hall



Song Yue was too lazy to point it out. It had been almost half a month, and she had only learned some superficial things. The accounting master only taught her some shallow things and spoke quickly, as if afraid that she would understand. He never let her practice or ask questions.

I'm just going through the motions every day.

In fact, Song Yue had already learned these things, and they were taught by the chief eunuch who had been doing accounting in the palace for decades.

The reason I stayed in Ninghui Hall was precisely for this day.

...

Today, the Duke of Jingguo's mansion is holding a betrothal ceremony. All the gates are open, and Song Hengchuan got up early to prepare. The steward personally brought over two cages containing live geese and handed them to Song Hengchuan.

Song Hengchuan took a look at them. The two geese had bright, alert eyes and looked very energetic. He nodded in satisfaction. "Well done."

The butler flattered, "Young Master, rest assured, absolutely no one will notice."

Song Hengchuan's smile deepened, and when the auspicious hour arrived, he led the betrothal gift procession in a grand procession toward the Shen family.

The two families were only two streets apart, not too far apart, but in order to show respect for the Shen family, Song Hengchuan deliberately took a detour through most of the capital to let everyone know the sincerity of the Duke of Jingguo.

Hearing the praises from the crowd, Song Hengchuan, riding on horseback, tilted his head back and revealed a smug smile, letting out all the pent-up frustration he had accumulated over the past half month.

Suddenly, a lively horn blared from the alleyway.

Accompanied by bursts of firecrackers.

They happened to witness a wedding.

The two sides bumped into each other. Song Hengchuan frowned, and the other party spoke first: "Let's make way."

Seeing that the groom was sensible, Song Hengchuan glanced at the crowd of onlookers and generously asked someone to give him a red envelope.

Bring joy to the other party.

"Thank you very much, Young Master Song."

The groom was humble and polite, accepting the invitation with a smile. He asked the wedding procession to step aside and make way for them. When the two processions were halfway through, Song Hengchuan's horse seemed to be startled and suddenly neighed, pacing back and forth erratically.

Song Hengchuan's expression changed slightly, and he gripped the reins tightly, but the horse wouldn't obey his commands at all and kept shaking excitedly.

He was already caught in the middle of the crowd, and the horse went berserk on the spot, causing everyone to try to get out of the way.

Snap!

A box landed on the ground.

Ouch!

The sedan chair bearers were tripped up and forced to stumble backward, which also caused the people carrying the boxes behind them to lose their balance.

Bang!

One box after another landed on the ground.

The people carrying the boxes were in complete disarray.

Song Hengchuan was still on horseback, gripping the reins tightly for fear that the horse would break free. However, he had been injured a few days ago, and now the wound had flared up again, making him feel like he was about to give up.

The horse carrying Song Hengchuan began to rampage wildly, and everyone was so frightened that they ran away in panic.

Even the wedding procession was affected, and the bridal sedan chair was overturned.

Seeing this, Song Hengchuan gritted his teeth, pulled out a dagger from his pocket, and stabbed it into the horse's neck. Blood spurted out, and the horse calmed down in pain. Then, its body went limp and it collapsed to the ground. Song Hengchuan jumped down in time, and his personal servant rushed forward, asking, "Young Master, are you alright?"

"Go check why this horse suddenly went crazy!" The first person Song Hengchuan thought of was Song Yue.

If Song Yue does something bad, he won't let her get away with it.
