Chapter 100 Thank You
"No escape... We won't escape. Don't be angry, Madam Duke. I will let my evil daughter fulfill her words. I only ask you not to report to the authorities again!" Lord Song immediately licked his face and said with a wry smile.
At this point, he can't afford to offend King Qin again. The Song family has not yet taken sides among the princes because he is still hesitating between the third prince and the sixth prince.
But this time, no one expected that the Eighth Prince would bypass two princes and be directly crowned king. This made him realize that everything is possible.
After saying that, Lord Song turned around and scolded his wife and daughter, "Why don't you get out of here right now? Let Xiao'er go with Miss Pei now! She has done something wrong, so she has to pay for it herself! The one she offended this time was the King of Qin, and she was only paraded through the streets instead of being sent to jail. This is already a good deal for her!"
"Master, why are you..." Mrs. Song asked in confusion when she heard Lord Song.
"Someone, bring my wife back to me quickly!" Madam Song wanted to beg for mercy, but Lord Song immediately called the servants in the mansion to drag Madam Song back.
Song Xiao'er was still crying there, and Lord Song was afraid that she would not obey him later, so he said coldly: "If you don't keep your promise, then don't come back to this family! I have other sons and daughters, and I can't let my entire Song family be ruined because of a fool like you. Do you hear me?"
Song Xiao'er raised her head in horror when she heard this. Was her father going to kick her out of the house? She began to feel fear in her heart. How could she dare to resist? If she was kicked out, wouldn't that be the same as forcing her to death? Under all the shame, she had no choice but to honestly fulfill her words.
Pei Jinyu and the others were very satisfied with Lord Song's attitude, and happily took Song Xiaoer to parade through the streets.
The tears on Song Xiao'er's face had dried up. She was restrained by several servants, and she walked while barking like a dog.
"Song Xiao'er, why are you screaming so softly? No one can hear you if you scream so softly. This doesn't count!" Pei Jinyu heard Song Xiao'er's voice, which was as soft as a mosquito, and shouted at her.
When Song Xiao'er heard this, her eyes were full of resentment. She glared at Pei Jinyu and said, "I didn't eat and I have no strength!"
"Oh! Then do I have to send you back to the Song Mansion and tell Lord Song to give you a meal before parading you out in the streets?" Pei Jinyu sneered when he heard Song Xiaoer's words.
"No...no need, I...just call you." Song Xiao'er was so scared when she heard Pei Jinyu mention her father that her body trembled.
How could she dare to go back? Her father was very snobbish. If he knew that she didn't obey, he would probably beat her up and kick her out!
Therefore, Song Xiao'er could only shout out in humiliation: "Woof! Woof woof! Woof woof woof!"
"Hahaha... look at what that is? It looks like the eldest daughter of the Song family. Is she crazy? She's actually barking like a dog?"
"Didn't you see that she was being escorted? It seemed like the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion was following her in front? I guess she must have made some mistake and is being punished!"
"It's so embarrassing for a young lady to bark like a dog in the street! Hahaha... Who would dare to marry her if she behaves like this?"
......
Soon, Song Xiaoer's shouting attracted the attention of people on the road, and gradually, many people from the restaurants on both sides also poked their heads out of the windows to watch the fun.
Song Xiao'er felt extremely humiliated and cried while barking like a dog. Every time she was about to run out of words or wanted to escape, Pei Jinyu would threaten her with her father.
In a restaurant facing the street, a deep and complex gaze appeared in front of the second-floor window, falling directly on the woman on the street with her chin raised and a face as bright as the sun.
"Your Highness, Miss Pei has really put a lot of effort into this for you! She brought people to the Song Mansion to make trouble early this morning." The servant stood behind Prince Qin and said with emotion.
Their master has had a hard life since childhood, and it is rare for him to meet someone who can treat him so sincerely.
King Qin's eyes followed Pei Jinyu's movements and did not pay any attention to Song Xiaoer. He had someone find out yesterday that Pei Jinyu had fought for him.
Although, he didn't care what others said about him, he cared that Pei Jinyu could do this for him. It seemed that she had forgotten their childhood, but she had not forgotten to be good to him in her bones.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth suddenly curved up, and he said, "Cangyu, I'll have someone go to the best jewelry store in the capital and buy all the popular jewelry of the season. Also pack up all the silk and satin that my father gave me. I will personally go to the Duke's Mansion to thank him tomorrow."
"All? Your Majesty, why don't we keep some of these silks for ourselves? After all, you are a prince now, and you also need some decent clothes." Cangyu opened his mouth wide when he heard this. After being surprised for a moment, he carefully advised.
Cang Yu thought: His master is really too generous!
"No need! I can just go to that ordinary cloth shop and buy some fabrics to make my clothes. As for what I wear when I enter the palace, the two sets arranged by the Queen will be enough."
He was not a person who liked luxury. For him, it was enough to have enough clothes to wear. His father had rewarded him with so many things, and he only wanted to give them to the people he wanted to give them to.
Seeing that King Qin refused, Cangyu could only nod honestly and say nothing more.
——The Third Prince’s Mansion——
After the Third Prince was confined to the mansion, he naturally had no idea about Song Xiaoer's jokes outside the mansion. Even if he knew, it had nothing to do with him.
Yesterday, he lost his temper as soon as he returned home, and even the Third Prince's wife was taught a lesson by him. He even felt that it was because his own princess had offended the Crown Prince's wife repeatedly that Pei Jingchuan stood on the side of King Qin.
The Third Prince's wife covered her swollen cheek and cried aggrievedly, "My husband, since you think that Young Master Pei is like this because I offended the Crown Prince's wife, then it means that he is blinded by beauty! People in their Duke's Mansion said that Young Master Pei has changed a lot since he married the Crown Prince's wife. Last time, I heard that he was almost paralyzed, but he got better! In this case, you might as well send someone to kill the Crown Prince's wife. As long as she is gone, Young Master Pei will definitely be the same as before!"
"Kill the Crown Prince's Consort? I think you are crazy!" The Third Prince became even angrier when he heard this. He picked up the teacup on the table and threw it at the Third Prince's Consort.
The Third Prince's wife dodged to the side, and the teacup fell to the ground with a bang.
The eyes of the Third Prince's wife were full of resentment. Anyway, she was already in such a state now, so she risked her life and said, "Don't you think so too, my husband? Think about it, the young master has changed a lot before and after his marriage? It's all because of that woman! Now, the reason why the young master is helping the King of Qin and rejecting the husband is definitely because the prince's wife whispered in his ears! As long as this woman is killed, no one will bewitch the young master, and the husband can still win over the young master. And the prince's wife's background is not obvious. If you kill her, it won't cause too much trouble. At most, you can compensate the young master with some women!"
"Because of a woman?" After hearing this, the Third Prince calmed down instantly and lowered his eyes to think.
The Third Prince's wife was delighted when she saw this. She thought the Third Prince had listened to her advice, but she didn't expect that the next sentence would make her collapse.
After thinking for a while, the Third Prince said, "Doesn't Young Master Pei have a younger sister who is not married yet? If I marry her as my principal wife, the Duke's Mansion will have to be on the same boat with me."
