Song Yuqing slapped her forehead in frustration.
Why didn't he think of that?
They're so focused on scheming against others that they forget they're still family.
"Well, well, the elder's suggestion was just an accident," Song Yuqing explained awkwardly.
"Yes, yes, I'm getting old, and my thinking is simpler."
The clan elder echoed this sentiment.
All that planning turned out to be useless.
Princess Zhaoyang merely glanced at them indifferently.
"It's about time, let's open the ancestral hall."
"Yes, yes, yes."
The Song family elders, who were so confident just moments before, are now completely deflated.
The gate of the Song Family Ancestral Hall slowly opened, and a deep, somber atmosphere, mixed with the scent of incense ash, wafted towards us.
The process of recognizing one's ancestors was complicated, and Shi Yu was being held by her older brother, so she couldn't even go out to relax for a while.
Only after all the names of the He family members were written down did Shi Chengxi loosen his grip on Shi Yu a little.
As soon as he let go, Shi Yu's small body nimbly landed on Xiao Lü's back.
The elders standing nearby immediately darkened upon seeing this.
How can you bring a dog into such a big event as recognizing one's ancestors?
Shi Yu blinked her big, beautiful, dark eyes innocently.
[You were joking with me just now in such a solemn place as an ancestral hall.]
[Shi Yan, quickly translate for me.]
Has this old man lived too long without ever being criticized? Doesn't he know how treacherous the world is?
Shi Yan stepped out, her face expressionless, and began translating.
"Yu Yu said, 'If you can come in, why can't the dog come in?'"
"You..." The clan elder glared angrily at Shi Yan's translation.
It's not like he can't hear Shi Yu's thoughts; this is how the kid translated them for him.
[Yan Yan's translation is great! That's how you should roast him.]
Shi Yu's joyful voice echoed in everyone's minds.
[Hey, let's search for some gossip about this old man and see what happens.]
As soon as Shi Yu said this, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Old Xu.
Who would have thought that this elder had a melon on him?
The elder shrank back, somewhat frightened by the gazes of the crowd.
I suddenly have a bad feeling, what's wrong with me?
【Okay, Yuyu.】Gua66's cheerful voice rang in everyone's minds.
[Oh, Yu Yu, this clan elder doesn't seem like a good person either.]
Not a good person?
The crowd's eyes were fixed intently on the clan elder.
Shi Yu, [What? Not a good person!]
What bad thing did this elder do?
Gua66: [This clan elder took in two concubines of Lord Song.]
That's why I specifically spoke up for Lord Song today.
Shi Yu, [Two concubines?]
Could it be those two women?
Gua, [Yuyu, you guessed right!]
[Hahahaha...] Shi Yu couldn't help but laugh.
[This Lord Song is quite adept at giving away gifts; he actually gave his two concubines to the clan elder.]
[This old man's beard is all white; he's very old. Can he still move around?]
[Wouldn't this be a boon for those two concubines? They'd practically fallen into a honey pot.]
[They don't have to serve the clan elders, and can do whatever they want on their own.]
[This Lord Song, is he really in love with both of them? Hahaha...]
Shi Yu has a very low threshold for laughter.
Even just a small melon can make her laugh for a long time.
Everyone: Lord Song actually gave a pair of female concubines to the clan elder?
Is this an attempt to please the clan elders or to harm them?
Song Yuqing felt embarrassed by everyone's gaze.
"Um, now that we've finished the worship, shall we head out?"
Just as Song Yuqing finished speaking, Shi Yu's sweet, childlike voice suddenly sighed.
[Such a strong sense of resentment.]
A woman dressed in red is hanging herself from an old tree in the courtyard.
Oh dear, she suddenly turned around and smiled at us, hehehe...
Out of the blue, Shi Yu suddenly said those two sentences.
The entire ancestral hall suddenly turned cold.
The kind that's chilling to the bone.
That woman is crying in front of Song Houzi.
[Gua66, listen, she's saying to Song Houzi: My lord, I died a terrible death! You must avenge me, and avenge our child...]
"Ah!" Lord Song was startled by the image of Shi Yu in his mind.
His unusual behavior drew everyone's attention to him.
Song Yuqing's eyes flickered with a hint of panic; he was so frightened that he almost cried.
There's a ghost in this ancestral hall!
Moreover, Shi Yan then translated it for everyone very carefully.
"Over there, there's a female ghost in red, looking for Lord Song."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, save me!"
Startled, Song Yuqing quickly went to Princess Zhaoyang's side.
"Lord Song, calm down." Princess Zhaoyang was very composed.
She's seen it all, she wouldn't be scared by a female ghost.
“Ring ring…” The protective stone hanging on Princess Zhaoyang’s body rang.
She gave one of these to Shi Yu last time, and then went to the Emperor to get another one.
The Guardian Stone was taken from the Guardian Divine Stone and is capable of sensing all evil spirits.
At this moment, the protective stone moved, which meant that the red-clothed female ghost mentioned by Shi Yu was approaching them.
"Your Highness, Princess!" Tantai Qingchuan stepped forward, blocking the crowd.
