After lunch, Xiao Lingyu took Baili Qingluan to the study. "This is Song Linyuan's confession. Take a look."
Baili Qingluan took it and took a look. "What he said is basically true. Let's send the confession to the capital today. You didn't call me here just to show me the confession, right?"
"Sister, you are truly a smart person. I was hoping that you could send a letter to the Western Border today, asking your Western Rong army to temporarily suspend the attack on the city."
"Okay, I'll go back later and send a letter to the Western Territory. The rumors outside are coming from the west, indicating that my Xuan Ce did not lead the troops to continue the siege."
At this time, Su Ningan entered the study and asked, "Aren't you going to take a nap?"
"Ang'er, you've come just in time. We just finished talking, so why don't you take your mother back to Wutong Garden for a nap?"
Baili Qingluan felt that Xiao Lingyu had something else to say, so she asked, "Sister Princess, do you have anything else to say?"
"No more, go back quickly."
Xiao Lingyu actually wanted to ask whether the five captured cities could be returned to Beiyi after the truth came to light.
But she couldn't make too many demands on Baili Qingluan just because she had raised Ang'er. It would be too unfair to her.
Now that the confession has been sent back to the capital, it is hard to say how the emperor will handle the matter.
The Song family army is still in the hands of the Song family.
"Mother, Song Linyuan is thicker-skinned than a city wall. He actually asked me to promise to take care of his precious daughter, Song Shuyi! She should be able to support herself by painting. She doesn't need me to take care of her, right?"
"How you treat Song Shuyi, how you arrange her, mother will not interfere with you, but there is one thing mother does not want to see her."
The child was innocent and was used by the Song family as her daughter, but she was that woman's child, and she could not guarantee that she would not vent her anger on the child when she saw her.
Su Ningan understood, "Mother, I understand."
After coaxing Su Ning'an to sleep, Baili Qingluan quickly wrote a letter.
Half an incense stick later, three letters were sent out of Huayang County in two directions and three routes.
Song Heng stood at the city gate, his eyelids twitching as he watched the Western Rong army opposite, and he felt inexplicably panicked.
If the rumors spread by Xirong are not stopped, there will be big trouble.
"General Song."
Xiao Jing went up to the city gate tower and said, "It seems that the Xirong army will not attack the city today. Why don't you go down and take a nap?"
As Xiao Jing spoke, he picked up the red tassel spear and started working on the city gate tower.
Seeing that his skills seemed to be better than eight years ago, Song Heng felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.
"General Xiao, you continue fighting. I will go back and rest."
Song Heng returned to his residence and called Song Linxiao.
"Dad, what's the matter that you're looking for me so urgently?"
Song Heng told Song Linxiao about his doubts.
"Once the truth is revealed, the Song family will be finished! We must prepare in advance. The Song family army is in our hands!"
Song Linxiao was shocked, "Dad, you are not thinking of..." rebelling?
Song Heng's eyes darkened. "Our Song family has served the Northern Yi court loyally and devotedly for generations. Father naturally won't do that. That would go against our ancestral teachings. If that day ever comes, Father only hopes that the Song family can have a chance to survive."
Song Linxiao recalled the scene of Baili Qingluan suffering in the dungeon and sighed, "Unless my sister-in-law calms down, she's determined to kill us. Even if the emperor can spare our death, the Xirong royal family won't let us live. Longcheng didn't intercept Baili Qingluan, so it seems she's still in Beiyi."
"Is the Xirong's refusal to attack related to Baili Qingluan? Xiao'er, quickly arrange for people to intercept suspicious letters along the route leading to the five lost cities. You'll definitely be able to find Baili Qingluan's whereabouts. And your third brother hasn't been heard from since. Find out where he is now."
"yes!"
"Also, arrange for someone to keep an eye on Xiao Jing. Once the matter is exposed, control the Xiao family army in time!"
As the night fell and everyone was asleep, the alley behind Zhang's house was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you. Gusts of cold wind blew from time to time.
"It's such awful weather! Even the dogs aren't barking." Zhang Yuan wheeled his wheelchair into Nanny Liang's room with a bowl of medicine. "Xu'er, it's time for Mom to drink the medicine."
Zhang Xu carefully helped Liang Wen sit up from the bed, took the medicine from Zhang Yuan's hand, blew on it, and then handed it to Liang Ma's mouth to feed her.
After several acupuncture sessions and drinking the right medicine, Nanny Liang no longer felt any pain in her throat when swallowing the medicine, and the medicine juice also stopped overflowing from her mouth.
The two brothers were happy to see that their mother was getting better day by day.
"Mother, don't worry, he will get better slowly." Zhang Xu gave up the idea of hiring a servant to serve Liang Wen because there were maids coming to the Song Mansion every day.
When Liang Wen gave him the money, he told him not to expose it, as it could lead to fatal disaster.
We can only wait until Liang Wen can walk again, find a reason to send the Song family away, and buy someone back.
"Brother Xu..." Liang Wen tried to say something.
"Oh! Mom, you can speak clearly now!" The two brothers were very happy.
"Mom, call me." Zhang Yuan slid his wheelchair to the bedside.
"Brother Yuan..."
"Hey, I heard you clearly. Can you say a few more words?"
Old Lu will come to give her acupuncture tonight, and Lord Meng will also come with her. He will definitely ask about Baili Qingluan. They will have to talk a lot in the evening, so she needs to stay energized.
"No more talking. I'll get tired if I talk too much."
Then he signaled his brothers to go back to their rooms to rest.
After helping Nanny Liang clean and wash herself, Zhang Xu changed the bed sheets and quilts, gave her two hot water bottles, and added enough charcoal into the charcoal basin.
After making sure that Nanny Liang wouldn't feel cold, he returned to his room.
