Chapter 339: Song Tingchen is heartbroken
Lu Zhiheng frowned tightly.
After a while he sneered.
"Everyone says that I am a playboy and unreasonable, and never take human life seriously. I also believe so. After all, many people have died at my hands."
"But how do I feel about this Old Madam Song and the Young Master of the Song family? They are even more dissolute than I am."
Song Tingchen's voice was thin and even a bit nonchalant. It was impossible to tell whether he was angry or not. Just by looking at his expression, it felt like there was a knife in his smile.
Old Madam Song was a little frightened.
"Don't...don't listen to their nonsense. Things...things are not what they say."
Old Madam Song was so scared that she almost cried.
She also didn't know where these two untouchables came from. They were so lucky that they even had the support of His Royal Highness Lu Zhiheng, the Prince of Chen.
Doesn’t Lu Zhiheng dislike meddling in other people’s affairs?
Why do you suddenly care about the lives of these two untouchables?
Old Madam Song was so angry that she was about to go crazy, but in front of Lu Zhiheng, she didn't dare to even fart.
She just lowered her head, her voice as small as a mosquito, not daring to offend Lu Zhiheng at all, "Your Highness... If Your Highness is kind-hearted, then I will do a good deed today and let them go. Your Highness, please don't be angry..."
Song Xiao felt a little aggrieved, but didn't dare to speak loudly. He just reached out and carefully tugged at Old Madam Song's sleeve, saying in a wronged voice, "Grandma..."
Old Madam Song frowned, knowing that Song Xiao had been wronged today, but with Lu Zhiheng like a living devil around, how could she dare to support her grandson again?
He could only pull Song Xiao and signal him to kneel down and not say anything.
Song Xiao knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at Lu Zhiheng cautiously, and his eyes fell on Suisui, who was held in Lu Zhiheng's arms like a treasure.
He looked at Sui Sui's face and felt inexplicably familiar. An uncomfortable feeling surged in his heart, but he suppressed it in the end.
"Twenty taels of silver are enough to buy the lives of these two? Since the Song family is so extravagant, I will submit a petition tomorrow, asking General Song to donate more of his wealth to the national treasury upon his return."
Old Madam Song suddenly raised her eyes.
She kowtowed twice to Lu Zhiheng.
"Your Highness, we know we were wrong!"
Lu Zhiheng's gaze fell on the guard beside him.
The guards around Lu Zhiheng immediately stepped forward and gave Lao Liu and Lao Huang a silver ingot each, and said to them, "Okay, you can go."
"You have nothing to do here."
"Be careful when you go out next time."
Don’t meet unlucky people like Old Madam Song and Song Xiao again.
Otherwise, all the good mood for the whole day will be ruined and it will be unlucky.
Old Liu and Old Huang held the silver, feeling very complicated.
Everyone in the world says that His Royal Highness Prince Lu Zhiheng is not a good person at all. He is a well-known playboy who never takes human life seriously.
But today, it was Lu Zhiheng who saved their lives. Lu Zhiheng even asked someone to give them silver to appease them.
However, the Song family, whom they subconsciously thought were good people, were extremely arrogant.
Old Huang and Old Liu were in very complicated moods and had no intention of buying New Year's goods at the moment.
He took the silver, kowtowed to Lu Zhiheng several times, and then turned and left.
He thanked me again and again before leaving.
Lu Zhiheng didn't look at them.
Instead, he fixed his gaze on Old Madam Song, "I have already sent them away. Do you still want to beat them to death, Madam Song?"
Old Madam Song was trembling, not daring to speak, she just shook her head desperately.
Lu Zhiheng chuckled.
"It's better this way. Otherwise, if anything happens to these two in the near future, regardless of whether it was done by Old Madam Song or the one who sent the young master, I will blame you. When the time comes, how those people in the Censorate will report to General Song is beyond my ability to predict."
His voice was careless.
His words were full of threats.
Old Madam Song wiped away her tears.
But how could he dare to say anything? He could only repeatedly promise that he would never disobey insincerely, and he would not dare to cause trouble for these two people.
What's more, Old Lady Song thought to herself that Lu Zhiheng had already decided to let these two untouchables go today. The capital city is so crowded that it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack for her to find two people.
She had no choice but to swallow her anger and accept the loss.
What made her feel even more uncomfortable was that Lu Zhiheng actually gave silver to these two untouchables.
She thought to herself that those two ingots of silver were enough to buy her food for several days, very good meals.
Why throw it to these two lowly people when there are so many good things to do? It's such a waste.
But the "untouchables" he mentioned took the silver and were very grateful to Lu Zhiheng.
…
This happened a long time ago.
But when Lao Liu talks about it now, he still feels a lot of emotion.
"We never thought that we would see the Song family again in this life."
Old Liu snorted coldly. The incident was indeed in the past, but the anger in his heart still seemed to have not dissipated when he thought about it now.
"Old Madam Song and Young Master Song don't take the lives of lowly people like us seriously. If it weren't for His Royal Highness Prince Chen who saved our lives that day, I'm afraid we would have really died."
"But if we were dead, there might not be anyone to escort the general today."
Song Tingchen closed his eyes, feeling hopeless.
