The hall was completely silent.
Chen Piaopiao stared at Song Yu, her eyes widened and gradually turned red. How dare he!
Bang--
General Shen strode over, pulled his daughter behind him, and glared at her: "Song Yu, you are going too far!"
Crash,
Several young men from the Shen family in Beijing stood up.
The Song family was startled and quickly stood up.
The ministers looked around with mixed feelings. They hadn't expected Song Yu to reject a young lady in public. Wasn't this just pushing someone into a fire pit? How would Miss Shen survive in the capital in the future? This was simply making an enemy.
I sighed in my heart, this guy who came back halfway is indeed not even as good as a bastard's son.
Looking around with unpredictable eyes, Song Yu's face remained calm as he said, "Miss Shen, it's not that I want to embarrass you in public. The daughter of the Shen family is well-educated, well-mannered, and beautiful. She is truly a gem. A daughter of one family is sought after by hundreds of families. Who doesn't know that?"
"only."
He bowed and said apologetically, "Mr. Song is suffering from a hidden illness and dared not make a mistake. I hope Miss Shen will forgive me."
Buzz,
I was stunned for a moment.
The ministers cried out in surprise.
Shen Piaopiao screamed: "You lied to me! This is not the reason at all! It's obviously you..." She has someone in her heart.
“Miss Shen!”
Song Yu interrupted her in a deep voice.
His black eyes were extremely deep and his speech was clear: "This is absolutely true. I have reported it to Your Highness." Looking at the prince, everyone's eyes could not help but move over.
The prince coughed lightly, "What Ziyu said is indeed true."
As for what the secret was, he looked at General Shen and said, "This matter concerns Ziyu's reputation, so it is not convenient to announce it publicly. General, you can go to the back of the palace to find out a little bit."
General Shen looked down at Shen Piaopiao, and Shen Piaopiao shook her head vigorously, she didn't believe it!
At the border, before or after the recognition, no word of Song Yu's hidden illness had been spread. How could this hidden illness pop up today when she asked His Highness for a marriage? It was clearly a deliberate targeting of her!
Chen Piaopiao gritted her teeth, Song Yu, you actually hate me so much!
Song Yu made a gesture of invitation: "General, please."
General Shen glanced at his daughter, paused, and finally arrived at the main hall with Song Yu. Shen Piaopiao became anxious and wanted to chase after them, but was stopped.
Everyone was looking forward to it, but only the Song family was anxious. Could it be true?
About an incense stick of time later, General Shen came out from the back of the hall with a sullen face. Shen Piaopiao greeted him anxiously: "Daddy..." General Shen pulled her towards the seat without saying anything.
"Daddy, what are you doing? What did Song Yu tell you? He lied to you, he didn't..."
"Shut up! Stop making trouble!"
Shen Piaopiao leaned on the seat, her eyes instantly blurred with tears.
Everyone's eyes widened instantly. So this hidden illness was real? Did Song Yu really have that unspeakable secret? Then... they couldn't help but look at the calm young man.
Song Yu was already sitting at the table, talking in a low voice to Old Master Jiang.
Mrs. Song's reaction was: "Impossible! My son is safe and sound, how could he have any hidden illness? Yu'er, you are talking nonsense, right?"
She was about to run over with her dress in hand, but was stopped by Lord Song: "Let's talk about it when we get home!"
The palace banquet continued, but everyone's minds were no longer on the banquet. From time to time, their eyes glanced at Song Yu, wondering what his hidden illness was. Many women sighed. They had originally thought that Song Yu was an easy man to marry, but now they saw that he was clearly a pit of fire.
I thought to myself: Fortunately, this man is not a bad person by nature, he is a bright and honest gentleman.
Otherwise, if he concealed the truth on purpose, wouldn't the Shen family girl be tricked into the Song Mansion with her infatuation?
The palace banquet ended hastily.
Everyone took the sedan chair to the palace gate. On the way, Xihe pushed Song Mo and said, "Why don't you go and find out?"
Song Mo knew he was wrong, so he had to accept his fate and follow Song Yu.
Here, as soon as she returned to the mansion, Chen Piaopiao's temper, which she had barely suppressed, completely erupted: "Dad, why didn't you let me say it? There is no unspeakable secret for Song Yu. Even if there is something unspeakable, it is because of his dirty thoughts. He is thinking about his own sister...ah!"
Bang,
A slap in the face.
She turned her head in disbelief, her eyes widened, tears streaming down her face: "You hit me?"
Mrs. Shen was anxious. She quickly went up to hug her baby daughter and touched her face distressedly. Then she glared at her husband: "You have grown up and actually hit our daughter!"
The brothers also looked distressed and disapproved, saying, "Dad, how could you hit your sister?"
General Shen regretted it after the fight, but now that he saw everyone defending her, his distressed heart changed instantly, and he said coldly: “From today until the day of the wedding, she is not allowed to leave the house!”
"master!"
Mrs. Shen was shocked and angry.
General Shen immediately turned around and glared at her: "And you! Stop pampering her!"
"She's already nineteen. A normal girl would have been married and had children by her age. But because you've spoiled her in every way, she's become so arrogant that she dares to yell and scream in front of the emperor, and even publicly expresses her love for a man... In short, no one can plead for her this time!"
He had been fighting on the battlefield for decades and only became more restrained in his old age. His harsh words at this moment frightened everyone.
General Shen stared at Chen Piaopiao: "There is nothing wrong with what Song Yu said. Moreover, even if he really deceived the emperor and lied in public, it only means that he really has no intention of you."
"You still want to marry a man who hates you and abandons you. Are you crazy?"
This is not a polite statement at all.
Shen Piaopiao screamed: “Dad!”
General Shen sneered: "You always say that you are free and easy, and look down on those ladies who are obsessed with love. But I think you are even worse than them..."
"Chen Kuo, shut up!"
Mrs. Shen couldn't bear it anymore, she stepped forward and twisted his arm, gritting her teeth: "Just try saying that again!"
General Shen, who accidentally scolded his daughter, said: "...Oh."
night,
Lying in bed, Madam Shen poked him: "Song Yu, do you really have a hidden illness?"
General Shen placed his hand on his abdomen and said, “He said he was injured in the army.”
Madam Shen was startled. She stared at the dark tent ceiling in a daze for a moment, lost in thought: "Was it this battle that killed him?"
General Shen didn't respond. In fact, he wasn't sure how much of what Song Yu said was true or false. But it was certain that Song Yu didn't want to marry his daughter, and they wouldn't get married in the next few years.
But no matter which one, his daughter can't afford it.
At the Song Mansion, Mrs. Song grabbed the imperial physician's hand and refused to let him go as soon as she walked out of the palace, insisting on taking Song Yu's pulse. Unexpectedly, the diagnosis, which was originally 70% accurate, was directly confirmed to be 100%.
Doctor Zhang looked at him with pity: "Young General Zhang may have difficulty having children in the future... Alas!"
Mrs. Song covered her head and fainted on Mr. Song.
The second branch of the Song family looked at Song Yu in disbelief, as if a basin of cold water was poured over them, and only one thought came to their mind: It's over!
Song Yu was quite content with himself, and even had the mind to talk to Song Mo about waiting for his marriage to Xihe, sending a few carts of dowry, etc., so that Xihe could have a grand wedding.
Song Mo patted his shoulder and said, "It's a small matter. You will definitely have many children and grandchildren."
