He gestured for Wenzhu to leave first and sat behind his desk, pondering for a moment. He guessed it must be something from that day at the Qin residence, where the Second Prince had caught Rong Jin doing something wrong.
The Second Prince requested permission to make Rong Jin his concubine. Does this mean he hasn't given up on marrying into the Song family?
While he was thinking, there was another knock on the study door. Jiang Qi reported, "Third Master, the Duke of Zhenguo and the Third Young Master of the Qin Family want to see you."
Shen Zhixiu was surprised. What did the Duke of Zhenguo want to talk to him about?
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Please invite the Duke of Zhenguo and the Third Young Master to the main hall for tea. I'll be there soon."

This was the first time the Duke of Zhenguo had come to ask for a favor. Judging from the expressions and tones of the father and son, it didn't sound like a business matter.
Even though Shen Zhixiu had made every possible plan, he still couldn't guess the purpose of the Qin father and son's visit today.
The Duke of Zhenguo smiled and said when he heard this.
"I'd like to ask you to help find a matchmaker for our third son. The Qin family wants to marry the eldest daughter of the Song family in the Marquis of Loyalty."
