Chapter 614 Active abatation

Songfu's three joys came to the door, and he got two sons and a daughter. He was really envious of others.

The son of the little princess was named Song Xiang, whose nickname is Naner, which means that the mother and son suffered at the time of birth. The elder brother of Ye Fang's twin brother and sister was named Song Yi. The meaning of the name naturally means that his mother gave birth to him like a pig. The girl named Song Ruolan, whose nickname is Shuangshuang. This is the standard name of a woman these days, and there is nothing to say.

Looking at his eldest son Song Zhidao and his three baby children, Song Nan suddenly felt a little sad. He was only in his 20s and suddenly had four children. In the future, there are really old and young, and the pressure has increased a little.

Among the sons of the Song family, although Song Zhidao, the son of Dai Suer, is the eldest son, he is a commoner. After the little princess gave birth to Song Xiang, the difference was soon reflected. This difference is not the internal view of the Song family, but mostly from the outside.

Song Xiang is the eldest son of Song Nan recognized by the outside world. He is still in his infancy, and the emperor has the title of title, directly awarded the title of viscount, and 300 mu of field. Compared with Song Xiang, the two sons of Song Zhidao and Song Yi, only got the title of captains, although they were also born. There is a position, but the difference is self-evident. As for Song Ruolan, the girl, she didn't get anything.

Song Nan obviously felt the emotions of Dai Suer and Ye Fanggu about this different treatment. If it were them themselves, it would be fine, but this was their child, which was a little unbearable. Song Nan can't change his views, but he can control the rules of the family. Song Nan called a family meeting and solemnly raised the matter, asking the whole family to rank the young masters according to their age.

"Tao'er is the eldest son of the Song family. In the future, everyone should remember this. In my Song family, the order of the long and young is the most important, not by identity. It's hard to be sensible in the future. You have to tell him this. I don't want to be out of rules because of this matter. Song Nan said seriously.

The little princess smiled and nodded. In fact, Song Nan had already communicated with her about this matter in private. The little princess knew that Song Nan did this for the harmony in the house and the heart of the concubine. The little princess knew very well that no matter how Song Nan emphasized, the eldest son in Song's mansion was still his own son. In the future, the court would be rewarded or Is it the attack or something like that, or is it your own son taking the lead? The little princess agreed with Song Nan's words to show magnanity.

After this family meeting, the atmosphere at home was obviously much better. The servants, including Uncle Zhong, were originally called Master Song Xiang directly. This time, they were all changed to the second young master, which at least made Dai Suer feel much better psychologically.

The weather is getting warmer. When the spring is bright in April, the full moon wine of the son of the Song family was vigorously. The officials who congratulated him were bustling. The Song Mansion made a big deal of the Chunfeng Tower for three days and invited the famous opera troupes of Nanjing and Yangzhou to set up a stage in Zhengnanfang for ten days. A full moon banquet It was said that it cost 560,000 taels of silver.

Among the many guests, dozens of officials of the foreign court, including Yang Tinghe, a cabinet scholar, more than a dozen leaders and eunuchs of the inner court, the heads of the Jinyiwei government, and the officers of the Shenshu battalion; almost all the important figures in the capital were included.

It's a matter of face for foreign court officials to come to congratulate him. Song Nan knows that they will definitely come. For these civil servants, even if they fight to your opponents, they must show superficial demeanor and never give people a sense of survival. Needless to say, Zhang Yong is Song Nan's hardcore friend. Although Ma Yongcheng and other eunuchs in the inner court have no deep friendship, they naturally have to follow Zhang Yong's buttocks. Naturally, there is no need to say more about the other Jinyiwei Shenshu camp. They are all Song Nan's team.

Song Nan originally did not intend that anyone would come to congratulate him in the regiment camp. He thought that no one would come except Zhang Lun, so he did not even send them invitations. However, this time he miscalculated. Unexpectedly, there were two marquises of the regimentalties in the list of congratulations, one of whom was almost led by himself in March. Jiao Zhengtai, the admiral of Yangwei Camp, and the other is Gaohu, the admiral of Xianwu Camp.

When he saw the names of these two people on the gift list, Song Nan was really confused and wondered whether it was registered wrongly on the gift list. One of them gave a small Buddha statue of pure gold and the other gave a small incense burner of pure gold. Obviously, this was a matching pair of gifts. But at the three-day banquet in the Spring Breeze Building, Song Nan did not see the two marquis at all.

Song Nan came to Uncle Zhong, who was in charge of this matter, to inquire about the matter carefully. Uncle Zhong patted his head and thought about it for a long time before recalling, "I did receive these two gifts. It was two servants who did not come to congratulate him. At that time, the old slave told them that at the spring breeze banquet, they invited their master to the banquet, and they also agreed. I don't know why I didn't go. This is the fault of the old slave. He treats guests slowly. I'm also old and busy taking care of him.

Song Nan comforted Uncle Zhong a few words. Obviously, the two marquis deliberately did not show up. The banquet on the spring breeze building were all attended by court officials. The two marquises were afraid to go to the banquet openly. However, it was obvious that there must be a reason why they did not come to the banquet after giving gifts. Song Nan did not want to accept this love inexplicably.

So, on a warm night in early May, Song Nan ordered people to invite two marquises, Jiao Zhengtai and Gao Hu, with their famous posts, and set up a table in the private room on the third floor of the Chunfeng Building to entertain the two people alone.

After dark, the two marquis came together in casual clothes.

Song Nan greeted each other at the entrance of the stairs. The two marquis looked a little sneaky. After greeting, he looked around. Song Nan knew what he meant and smiled, "Don't worry, the two marquis. I have already chartered the spring breeze building today, specially to compensate for neglecting the two marquises. The two marquis gave me a gift but did not drink a glass of wine of Song. Song is very sorry.

When Jiao Zhengtai and Gao Hu heard Song Nan's words, they looked much calmer. Jiao Zhengtai and Song Nan were also acquaintances. After introduced Gao Hu for Song Nan, the three sat in the private room, put wine and vegetables, and began to eat and drink.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, the hemp seeds on Jiao Zhengtai's face glowed red, and his expression was much more comfortable. He put down his chopsticks and smiled at Song Nan: "The Marquis of Song must think that the two of us are a little strange. There is a happy event in the Marquis Song's family. I must not have thought that there would be anyone in our camp besides the British Duke to congratulate him."

Song Nan laughed and said, "It's true, and the person who congratulates you is still your Marquis Jiao. If I remember correctly, I once offended you a month ago."

Jiao Zhengtai laughed and said, "That's not an offense. That's our joint drill. Did Marquis Song forget?"

Song Nan nodded and said, "Yes, is it a drill or is Lord Jiao's good memory?"

Jiao Zhengtai said, "In fact, I have no feelings for the Marquis Song. On the contrary, I admire the Marquis Song. There is a happy event in the Marquis Song's house, and it is also appropriate for us to congratulate him."

Gao Hu also said, "Yes, I have the best relationship with Marquis Jiao. Twenty years ago, Marquis Jiao and I joined hands to resist the enemy outside Yanmen Pass and had already made a life-death relationship. On that day, the Marquis Jiao told me that he had to congratulate the Marquis Song for his daughter, and I also felt that it should be, so I ordered someone to give some small gifts. Why did Lord Song spend money to entertain us today?

Song Nan arched his hand and said, "Thank you very much. My men didn't do a good job and didn't invite the two marquises at the banquet for three days. It shouldn't be so rude. I have to invite the two marquises to dinner to express my gratitude and apology."

Jiao Zhengtai smiled and said, "We deliberately didn't come to the banquet, and the reason must be understood by Lord Song."

Song Nan shook his head and said, "I really don't understand."

Jiao Zhengtai said, "Margrave Song is pretending to be confused. The Marquis of the regimental headquarters must also know the Marquis Song's attitude towards the Marquis Song. We came to congratulate you and went to the banquet. If they knew about it, why don't we be angry? The two of us are going to be their traitors immediately.

Song Nan pretended to be puzzled and said, "Then why? I have never offended the marquis of your regiment camp? Why do you have a good opinion about me?"

Jiao Zhengtai shook his head and said, "Marquis Song, don't be angry by an inappropriate example."

Song Nan smiled and said, "Please speak."

"For example, there are several rich families living on a street, and the rest are beggars and people. Usually, the rich people live freely, and the people and beggars are also afraid of them and flatter them. Suddenly one day, one of these people and beggars made a fortune, climbed to the powerful, and suddenly became disrespected by these rich people. What do you think of these rich people?

Song Nan laughed and said, "So that's the story of Marquis Jiao is quite appropriate. The rich are the marquises, and the beggars must be me, Song Nan. It turns out that the marquis are jealous. Song Nan suddenly became equal to them. In their eyes, I should be a beggar all my life, right?"

Jiao Zhengtai said, "It's agreed not to be angry. I'm telling the truth, and there is no reason for such a thing. Besides, it's not that you haven't offended anyone.

Song Nan smiled and said, "Who have I offended?"

Jiao Zhengtai smiled and said, "Do you really want to say it? Zhenweiying Qian Taichang's son-in-law's son-in-law..."

Song Nan waved his hand and said, "Come on, stop talking, don't mention it."

Jiao Zhengtai and Gao Hu laughed. Song Nan was a little puzzled. What was the purpose of these two people? There seemed to be no malice, but she couldn't guess what they wanted to do.
