It was a coincidence that just as Eunuch Zhang finished speaking, Bai Wei came in from outside the hall and reported:
"Miss, General Si from next door is here!"
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing smiled and said, "Eunuch, you see, if you mention the devil, he'll appear. This saves you from having to make this trip."
Eunuch Zhang glared at He Youchan and said:
"Then let me borrow the county lady's territory and listen to how General Si has to defend himself!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at Si Jinxing, who was still smiling, with some helplessness.
He thought to himself, this kid is usually smart, what's wrong with him today?
That little bitch is about to snatch the man from her, why is this girl still smiling foolishly here?
Si Jinxing had no idea what Eunuch Zhang was thinking. She just thought this matter was a joke, not to mention whether the emperor could change the imperial edict.
Just talking about Qi Moli, is he someone who can be manipulated by others?
Not to mention He Youchan, a girl who has no roots in the capital.
It was Ye Wan'er, the old Grand Tutor's granddaughter and a famous talented woman in Jianzhou. Wasn't she also rejected by Qi Moli?
Besides, this was Qi Moli's fault. Wouldn't it be better to let him deal with it himself?
She asked Luzhu to make some hot tea and brought a plate of melon seeds, then she saw Si Junshan striding over, followed by Si Jinyi and her brother!
Eunuch Zhang always gave General Si Junshan some face, but today he just sat there motionless.
Seeing this, Si Jinxing naturally didn't bother to move and just winked at the two children.
Si Junshan had wanted to come here to see the child yesterday, but he was afraid that she would be tired from the journey, so he forced himself to wait until today.
He even waited a little longer just to let the child have a hot meal in peace.
After he went out, he saw the palace guards arriving at the next yard, thinking that the emperor wanted to reward her.
Si Junshan is happy that his child has a bright future!
Afraid that his presence would disturb her interest, he did not rush to visit her.
He then thought that it might be awkward if he went alone, so he went to Cuihe Garden again and brought Si Jinyi and Si Jinheng out together.
In this way, the child shouldn't refuse to let me in, right?
But just as I was leaving Cuihe Garden with my two children, I heard people from the mansion saying:
Early in the morning, my aunt took my cousin to the yard of the second young lady next door!
When Si Junshan heard this, he felt something was wrong and hurried over.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, he noticed that the atmosphere in the hall was very wrong.
Eunuch Zhang, who usually has a kind face, now has a gloomy face and acts as if he didn't see me when he saw me!
My daughter looks thinner. I guess she suffered a lot in the north!
However, she seemed to be indifferent at this moment, sitting aside, eating melon seeds...
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she was okay, it would be fine.
Si Junshan turned his gaze again and saw He Youchan kneeling beside him, looking at him with a pleading look in her eyes...
And his elder sister was leaning on He Youchan's shoulder at this moment, and seemed to have fallen asleep?
He withdrew his gaze in disdain, bowed to the eunuch Zhang, and said:
"I didn't know that the eunuch was coming. I'm sorry for not coming to greet you."
Eunuch Zhang glanced at him and said, "We are here at the County Lady's residence. What does this have to do with yours?"
When Si Junshan heard this, he was immediately shocked. What on earth had made Eunuch Zhang so angry?
Previously, in order to prevent the people from the Si Mansion from seizing Si Jinxing's belongings while she was traveling north, King Mo Ying moved all her things to the house next door.
Not many people know about this.
But now, this eunuch actually said it so bluntly, which was really a slap in his face.
Isn't that a slap in the face?
An unmarried girl lives in a separate house. It would be embarrassing if people knew about it!
Eunuch Zhang is a favorite of the Emperor, and even the imperial concubines have to give him some face.
But he is a humble and low-key person, and rarely relies on his status to bully others!
And today, Eunuch Zhang acted like this, I'm afraid he is angry!
Si Junshan couldn't help but think of Si Junhong and his daughter. Could it be that these two had caused some trouble?
With a hint of smile on his face, he said respectfully, "Father-in-law, you are joking. After all, this child is the daughter of my Si family.
I don’t know, sir…”
Before he could finish his words, Eunuch Zhang stretched out his hand and interrupted him:
"General Si, do you know that this child is from your Si family?
So her marriage was about to be snatched away by your niece, and was it you who agreed to it?"
What marriage?
Si Junshan was confused after hearing this. What did he mean by niece snatching the marriage away?
He glanced at Si Jinxing and saw that the child was not looking at him at all, but only at He Youchan who was kneeling beside him.
Si Junshan's face darkened instantly. Only then did he realize that Si Junhong and her daughter had such despicable thoughts!
He turned his head to look at He Youchan, only to see her explaining with a look of horror:
"Second uncle, listen to Chan'er, it's not what they said.
Chan'er didn't want to compete with her sister, but was worried that she would become a thorn in the eyes of Princess Hanlan, so she wanted to share some of the burden with her.
Moreover, Chan'er has been saying that this matter will be dealt with after the marriage between the two countries is completed. If the marriage fails, then naturally this matter will be treated as if it has never been mentioned!
Chan'er, I really just have good intentions, please understand my uncle!"
He Youchan whispered while wiping the tears from her face with a handkerchief. She looked as if she had suffered a great injustice!
If it were in the past, Si Junshan would definitely believe her a little.
But now, he regarded his daughter as the apple of his eye, so how could he listen to the words of an irrelevant person?
