Why did the Sixth Prince keep asking? What was his purpose? What did he want to know?
Song Dong spoke up, "That's right, my second sister found it for me. Speaking of this, I have to mention the academy and other private schools in our area. They wouldn't accept me, so my second sister had no choice but to send me to their private school..."
So that's how it is.
Song Xia didn't know anything about Luo Heng and the others before?
The sixth prince was thinking about it.
Song Dong then said, "Sixth Prince, aren't you busy? If you are, then go do your thing. You don't need to sit here with me."
"I'm not busy today."
After answering, the Sixth Prince continued, "Then how did your second sister and Jin Beichen meet? One of them is from Fengling, and the other is from Daqi..."
Does he not know that his second brother-in-law was previously sent to Yucheng?
"You'll have to ask them about that."
"I don't know either."
Song Dong shrugged.
The sixth prince wanted to ask more questions.
Cui Yunsu walked over: "Dong'er, you haven't left yet. Oh, who's that person next to you? Where's Huo Lang?"
"Master's wife."
Song Dong stood up and greeted him, saying, "Master's wife, he is the sixth prince..."
The Sixth Prince?
Cui Yunsu took a closer look and immediately curtsied to the Sixth Prince. Although she didn't want to, his status was such that she couldn't refuse.
"Madam Luo, you're too kind."
The sixth prince spoke with a smile.
Before Cui Yunsu could say anything.
The Sixth Prince said slowly, "Madam Luo, I wonder if Master Luo is free now? I have tried to visit him several times before but have not been able to. I have kept him in mind and come to see him from time to time."
He had barely finished speaking.
Cui Yunsu slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "What bad luck! My old man went out with the other teachers. As soon as the students left, they left too. By the time I realized they weren't home, they had already disappeared."
Song Dong: "..."
The teachers had even discussed having a barbecue at home that night!
How could I possibly go out!
It seems they don't like the Sixth Prince.
The sixth prince had not yet spoken.
Cui Yunsu said to Song Dong, "Dong'er, your teachers went out for a nice meal today, without your teacher's wife. How about your teacher's wife comes home with you for a nice meal?"
"OK!"
Song Dong did not hesitate at all.
Cui Yunsu told Song Dong to wait for her while she went to the backyard to get the keys.
After she left, the Sixth Prince asked Song Dong, "Madam Luo, do you like the food your family makes?"
"Sixth Prince, don't you like him?"
After asking, Song Dong said, "I know, you must not have tried them, because everyone who has said they are delicious. If you don't believe me, you can try them all."
They hadn't chatted for long when Cui Yunsu arrived.
Immediately afterwards.
In front of the Sixth Prince, Cui Yunsu locked the gate: "Sixth Prince, I have to hurry to Song Dong's house for dinner, so I won't chat with you any longer."
That's all.
Cui Yunsu led Song Dong down the street.
Walk a distance.
Cui Yunsu glanced around and said softly, "Dong'er, you're still young. There are some people you probably can't understand. They may seem all smiles on the surface, but they actually have ulterior motives..."
"Master's wife, are you talking about the Sixth Prince?"
Song Dong asked casually.
Cui Yunsu coughed and said, "More or less..."
Upon hearing this...
As Song Dong walked, he said, "The Sixth Prince asked me a lot of questions, all related to my Second Sister and the others. Madam, what exactly does he want?"
"Who knows?"
Cui Yunsu instructed Song Dong, "Dong'er, when you enter officialdom, remember not to easily take sides. If you encounter a good superior, all will be well; but if you encounter a bad one, you won't be the only one to suffer..."
After saying all that.
Cui Yunsu remained silent for a long time until she saw Huo Lang riding in a carriage driven by Fang Zheng towards them. Only then did she speak: "Huo Lang, we're here!"
Fang Zheng and Huo Lang naturally saw her and Song Dong.
A moment later.
The carriage stopped beside them.
As soon as Song Dong stepped forward, he asked Fang Zheng, "Uncle, are you alright?"
Fang Zheng shook his head and said, "I'm fine, but there was a problem with my carriage. It was hit by someone else's carriage, and in the end, that person paid me twenty taels of silver."
"It's also because of you. If it were me, I would have asked for at least a hundred taels."
Holland said from the side.
"You little rascal..."
Cui Yunsu glanced at Huo Lang and said to Fang Zheng, "Fang Zheng, has your carriage ever had any problems before?"
Fang Zheng was about to answer when he was about to speak.
Song Dongxian spoke first: "My uncle has never had any problems driving either oxcarts or horse-drawn carriages. He's an excellent driver."
If that were the case.
What happened today was not an accident, but a deliberate act.
Cui Yunsu said calmly, "Alright, alright, hurry up and get in the car and go home, otherwise Song Xia will worry about you all if you get back late."
indeed.
Song Xia had already looked out from her doorstep several times.
Song Dong was staying at their house, so as his older sister, she naturally had to be responsible for his safety.
I caught a glimpse of them returning.
Song Xia strode forward: "You're finally back! If you hadn't come back, I would have gone looking for you."
“Xiaxia…”
When Cui Yunsu called out, Song Xia noticed that there was another carriage behind them, the same one that Song Dong was riding in.
"Song Xia".
Huo Lang jumped off the carriage: "Are we welcome to come and freeload a meal?"
"Of course you're welcome."
Song Xia beckoned them and led them inside.
We chatted for a while.
Song Xia and her entourage were preparing dinner. When she was almost finished, Cui Yunsu called her outside to speak: "Xiaxia, you must be careful of the Sixth Prince."
"Um?"
Song Xia asked, puzzled.
Cui Yunsu told her what had happened before, and also told her about how the Sixth Prince had visited Luo Heng and the others many times but had failed to do so.
"The Sixth Prince may seem decent on the surface, but he's actually a ruthless and cunning man. Once you're no longer of use to him, he'll kick you aside without hesitation..."
"Master's wife, I understand. We will be careful."
Song Xia said.
Cui Yunsu sighed, pulled Song Xia to sit down, and said, "Xiaxia, do you know why we don't have children? Because they're all dead. They died because they were choosing sides..."
Several other members of the master's family also met the same fate.
They survived because the emperor suddenly granted a general amnesty after the empress gave birth.
later.
They then left the capital city of Fengling and retired to teach their children.
Cui Yunsu continued.
“Our eldest son has been in poor health since birth, how could he endure imprisonment?”
"The second son was talented, but he was just as stubborn as me and refused to bow down. In the end, he refused to accept charity and starved to death. Before he died, he killed his wife and children. My heart was bleeding the moment I found out."
"Xiaxia, choosing sides is very important. If you can avoid taking sides, then don't. If we hadn't been exiled back then and the Emperor hadn't granted a general amnesty, how would we be alive today?"
