Chapter 552: She is destined to bear the stigma of being unfilial
Before Song Yanxi could speak, Princess An said sympathetically, "Look at me. Princess Yong'an has only been back in Beijing for less than a month and hasn't had time to rest yet.
Drinking tea or anything like that is not a big deal. Just rest at home for a few days. When the weather is good, I will bring my naughty monkey to your princess's mansion to ask for a glass of water."
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, not to mention that this person is the dignified Princess An, and the two will soon become sisters-in-law.
It is reasonable and logical for Song Yanxi to give this face.
She smiled back, nodded, and said, "Your Highness, I await your arrival."
Princess An smiled kindly and walked out with a group of female relatives.
Knowing that Princess Huayang was deliberately sending them away to settle the matter, the ladies and young ladies walked quickly, fearing that they would hear something they shouldn't if they were a step slower.
There was only one person who walked at a leisurely pace and soon distanced himself from the crowd.
Seeing Bai Yuewei stop in front of her, Xie Wanjun introduced her to Song Yanxi, "This is the daughter of Minister Bai of the Ministry of Revenue. I think the princess must have seen her before."
Song Yanxi nodded, and indeed felt that the face looked somewhat familiar.
Before she could speak, Bai Yuewei said coldly, "My lord, it's common for you to forget things."
Sensing the subtle hostility emanating from her, Song Yanxi couldn't help but frown.
She didn't remember when she had offended Miss Bai.
To be honest, her father Bai Anyang had "helped" her a lot before, and the two of them had some friendship.
Even if we don't become overly familiar with each other the first time we meet, we won't be cold or hostile to each other either.
Xie Wanjun on the side also felt strange.
She seldom went out on weekdays, but after meeting her a few times before, she felt that the eldest daughter of the Bai family was a kind-hearted and intelligent person who followed the rules.
Why today...
Bai Yuewei originally wanted to leave immediately, but when she thought of Song Baozhu's embarrassed appearance just now, she could no longer endure it and asked in a cold voice, "What is the relationship between that Miss Song and the princess?"
Hearing her mention Song Baozhu, Song Yanxi guessed the crux of the matter and said bluntly: "What happened today was not my fault."
Apart from that, there is not even a single unnecessary explanation.
Bai Yuewei stared at her intently, as if trying to find out something.
But apart from calmness, there is nothing else.
She pursed her lips, bowed, and said, "It was my fault for speaking out of turn and offending the princess. I will take my leave."
As the two passed by, Song Yanxi gently reminded her, "Miss Bai, being kind is a good thing, but if you accidentally let someone use you as a raft, it will only bring disaster upon yourself."
Bai Yuewei paused slightly and left without looking back.
Looking at her back, Xie Wanjun frowned and said, "This Miss Bai is quite straightforward."
As she spoke, she felt a cold gaze falling on her. When she looked up, she met Mo Lingxuan's sinister eyes.
They have been married for many years and can know what the other is thinking with just a glance.
Xie Wanjun was puzzled.
What is he unhappy about?
Song Yanxi also felt a burning gaze falling on her.
You don't need to look to know that the owner of the sight is Mo Jinchuan.
Since returning to Beijing, this guy has become even more shameless.
In the past, I was somewhat cautious when appearing in front of others, but now I don’t care at all.
Sometimes she even wondered if he had died once, just like her, and that was why he was so carefree about so many things.
But judging from his usual behavior, it doesn't seem like that.
Instead, it's more like, simply thick-skinned...
Princess Huayang observed the performance of her two nephews and could not help but snort coldly, "No future."
Mo Lingxuan met her gaze and said with a cold smile, "Aunt, my nephew's health is indeed not promising."
"You!" Princess Huayang's face suddenly darkened.
She had always disliked him, and this was no secret in the palace.
But now, in front of outsiders, we have to give them the face they deserve.
Suppressing her anger, Princess Huayang sighed and said earnestly, "Ling Xuan, don't underestimate yourself.
Your father specially arranged for Yong'an to take care of your health. If you take the medicine carefully, your recovery will only be a matter of time."
She glanced at Mo Jinchuan and asked, "Jinchuan's leg injury was so serious, but he was able to stand up again. Why can't you?"
Mo Lingxuan forced a smile and said dryly, "In that case, I would like to thank you for your kind words, Aunt."
Princess Huayang also smiled, but the smile did not reach her eyes. "Why are you thanking me? If you really want something, you should thank the person who treated you."
She changed the subject and asked, "Yong'an, the third daughter-in-law just said that you are repaying the Yongchuan Marquis for giving birth to you. What does that mean?"
Song Yanxi stepped forward quickly and knelt down respectfully.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard Mo Jinchuan say calmly, "Aunt doesn't like people kneeling around. Stand up and talk."
Hearing this, Song Yanxi did not move.
Princess Huayang already disliked her and was waiting to find fault with her, so there was no need to give her a handle over such a small matter.
She couldn't bear the charge of disrespecting elders.
Besides, she is the elder and has done Mo Jinchuan a great favor, so what's wrong with kneeling to her?
It’s not a disadvantage anyway.
As Song Yanxi was thinking this, she caught a glimpse of Mo Jinchuan taking two steps forward, lifting his robe and kneeling beside her.
"Wait a minute!"
"Asshole!"
Two voices sounded at the same time.
One is worry, the other is disappointment.
Princess Huayang glared at Song Yanxi and said coldly, "Get up. If you keep kneeling like this, someone who doesn't know would think I'm deliberately making things difficult for you."
"Thank you, Princess."
"It's not me you should thank."
Glaring at Mo Jinchuan in anger, Princess Huayang said coldly, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Song Yanxi stood up and explained what happened that day in a simple and clear manner, including the fact that Zhuzhi accidentally burned Song Huai'en and Yan Qing slapped him.
Instead of hiding it and waiting for Princess Huayang to send someone to investigate, it is better to be straightforward.
After all, the injuries on Song Huai'en's body cannot be faked.
She only needed to send someone to the Lotus Garden and everything would be clear.
Upon hearing this, Princess Huayang's expression became strange.
She asked tentatively, "Did Yan Qing really hit that guy Song Huai'en?"
Song Yanxi: "Every word I say is true. I wouldn't dare to hide anything."
Princess Huayang suddenly smiled, and said as she did so, "As expected of the Yan family's daughter, she has the same aura that Old Master Yan had when he chased after my brother and beat him up."
Hearing her say this, the expressions of several people in the courtyard became a little subtle.
As expected of Mr. Yan, he actually dared to chase after the current emperor and beat him up.
He is probably the only one in the world who has such courage.
Although Song Yanxi had never heard the old man mention this matter, she did not doubt the truthfulness of Princess Huayang's words.
She even felt that her choice of words was relatively euphemistic.
Since today's matter is destined to end badly, instead of waiting for Song Huai'en to file a complaint first, it would be better for her to do it herself.
She is destined to bear the stigma of being unfilial.
Meeting Princess Huayang's inquiring gaze, Song Yanxi said bluntly, "To be honest, Your Highness, the reason I brought Song Baozhu here without permission today is because of the request made by Marquis Yongchuan when he wrote the divorce letter."
"He Li, how dare he?"
