Chapter 131 The State Government 2
Speaking of what the situation was like in the hall, Lv Xianger followed Huo Qingqing to the backyard of the Duke's Mansion and found that Huo Qingsong also followed, and she was a little nervous. Since listening to Huo Qingqing's unintentional words, Lv Xianger has made up her mind to eliminate the emotion in her heart.
Looking at Huo Qingsong, Lv Xianger understands that some things are easy to say and difficult to do. In particular, the person she wanted to forget has been swaying in front of her eyes. How can this not make Lv Xianger uncomfortable and a little angry?
Huo Qingsong also seemed to notice that he was a big man, but it was a little strange to sit under the grape rack with three women. After thinking about it, he got up and left. He didn't know where he had gone. Without Huo Qingsong in front of her, Lv Xianger breathed a sigh of relief. I tasted the grapes in the Duke's Mansion with Huo Qingqing and Chaoxia.
"Xiang'er, this vine was specially moved into the Duke's Mansion by my grandfather." Huo Qingqing ate sweet grapes, and his eyes almost narrowed into a line: "Speaking of which, Grandpa did this because he drank wine. I remember that my grandfather said at that time that if it hadn't been for the first person to make wine, the Zhou Dynasty would have really lost the same delicious fruit.
"Qingqing, you don't have to praise me. I just happened to know that grapes can be eaten." Thinking of the days when she lived in Qinghe Village, Lv Xianger smiled, but she missed it very much.
However, when talking about grapes, Lv Xianger thought about her desire to open a winery in Beijing. Thinking of finding a shop near the Lv family, Lv Xianger asked Huo Qingqing. Although Huo Qingqing did not expect that the shop would be rented or sold, he promised to help Lv Xianger find it.
The morning glow sitting aside rarely interrupts, and most of them are enjoying the scenery of the back garden of the Duke's Mansion. The last time she sent Lv Erniang to the capital, Chaoxia also came to the Guogong Mansion, but because Song Yuan was injured, she really never came to this backyard. At this time, if you take a closer look, the backyard of the Duke's Mansion is really big.
Because this grape rack is in a corner of the backyard, the morning glow can still see most of the scenery. There are many kinds of pavilions and pavilions, water pavilion corridors, and rockery fountains, and the layout is also very unique, which makes people feel relaxed and happy at a glance.
For a while, except for Chaoxia, most of them were enjoying the backyard, and the three of them got along very well together. Lv Xianger also took this opportunity to briefly talk about Jiangling Mansion to Huo Qingqing. When he heard about Xiang Qingya's identity, Huo Qingqing was very surprised, but he also understood what Lv Hong's gloomy look was for. When he heard that Liao Wenbo was also involved, Huo Qingqing just paused and was glad that Lv Xianger was not confused by Liao Wenbo.
Hearing that Lv Xianger was about of Lv Xianger by 'Chen Wang Yu Party' again. Although there was no danger, Huo Qingqing still exclaimed when he finally returned safely. I have been pulling Lv Xianger to make sure that she has really not been abused. Then, Huo Qingqing patted her chest and said that Lv Xianger was really a 'good luck'.
"Qingqing, I'm telling you this. I don't want to mention Xiang Qingya in front of my brother." Thinking of what she promised to Lv Hong, Lv Xianger said, "Your brother may not know the identity of Xiang Qingya. Please keep it a secret and don't tell him. This is also what I promised my brother.
"I know, don't worry." Huo Qingqing nodded, but there was a strange feeling in his heart that he was so dedicated to Lv Hong.
At this moment, Huo Qingsong and Lu Hong said something and walked this way. Lv Xianger happened to see the two people in the seat where she was sitting, so she immediately got up and greeted them. Because of seeing Lv Hong, Lv Xianger naturally wanted to know what Song Beiqiao said in the hall.
Lv Xianger came to Lv Hong, but Huo Qingsong nodded and walked to Huo Qingqing. Obviously, he wanted Lv Xianger's brother and sister to spend time alone. Lv Xianger saw Huo Qingsong's intention and lowered her head slightly and smiled. Huo Qingsong looked at her before passing by her.
Although such a close resistance caused a ripple in Lv Xianger's heart, the latter is more important than Lv Erniang's matter. When Huo Qingsong went away, Lv Xianger immediately asked in a low voice, "Brother, how's it going?"
"The old prince just asked me what I meant, and I have shown him the attitude of our brother and sister." Thinking of Song Yuan's look that seemed to have got what he wanted, Lv Hong's heart immediately rose to a lot of emotions.
Think about it, if he hadn't met Xiang Qingya and let Lv Hong taste the love between men and women, he would not have understood Song Yuan's heart at this time. However, in any case, as long as Lv Erniang is willing to live a happy life in the future, Lv Hong and Lv Xianger have no reason to obstruct this matter. After all, Lv Hong and Lv Xianger's brother and sister will not always be with Lv Er Niang.
After Lv Xianger finished talking to Lv Hong, she also came to the grape rack. When Lv Xianger and Chaoxia whispered something, a strong old man came quickly with a family. When she was just in the hall, Lv Xianger already knew that this person was the general manager of the national government. The big stewer, surnamed Song, used to be a follower of the old master of the country. He is in charge of all the big and small things in the national mansion. It can be said that he is a relatively important person in the national mansion.
"General, little lady, and three distinguished guests. The elder brother and wife of the prince have arrived. The prince has invited several people to go to the front." Manager Song bowed to Huo Qingsong and others, and there was no arrogance and rudeness as Lv Xianger imagined.
When Huo Qingsong heard what the steward Song said, he got up and said to several people, "My uncle and aunt are coming. Let's meet in the hall. It's just that the family banquet is about to start, so don't eat grapes here.
"Good." Lv Hong and others nodded and walked to the front courtyard with the stew manager Song. At this time, Huo Qingqing introduced her 'big uncle' and 'big aunt' to Lu Xianger in a low voice.
In Song Beiqiao's life, there were two sons and one daughter. Among them, the eldest son Song Fang, married Hui, who was the daughter of the government's son sacrificing wine; the eldest daughter, Song Wen, married Huo Changfeng, the only son of the old general Huo Jing in the general's mansion, Huo Changfeng, that is, Huo Qingsong and Huo Qingqing's biological mother; the youngest son is Song Yuan, who is not young, but he has not yet married.
According to common sense, it should be the eldest son Song Fang, not the youngest son Song Yuan who inherits the title of the State. But in fact, Song Fang is not the biological son of Song Beiqiao, but his adopted son. When the young Song Beiqiao fought south and north, he almost lost his life. Thanks to a general under him who sacrificed his life to save him, Song Beiqiao survived. Later, he learned that when Song Fang was born, his biological mother collapsed and died, leaving the orphan son behind. Song Beiqiao adopted him and named him Song Fang.
Speaking of which, Song Fang is no different from Song Yuan in the eyes of Song Beiqiao. Let Song Bei inherit the title, and Song Beiqiao has no opinion. But the Song family is a big family, not just a family in Song Beiqiao. Although Song Beiqiao is the patriarch of the Song family, the elders of the family are all opposed to letting Song come to the throne.
For the stability of the Song family, Song Beiqiao had to compromise on this matter. However, in order to compensate Song Fang, he asked for a prestigious marriage for him. Huiyan, the father of his wife Hui, is a national prison. It can be said that he is full of peaches and plums all over the world and has a high status. At the same time, Song Beiqiao is also secretly helping, making Song Fang a smooth career, and now he is now the servant of the Ministry of Ceremonies.
Entering the hall, Lv Xianger saw a middle-aged couple talking to Song Beiqiao. Behind the couple stood a child in his teens. It seemed that they heard the footsteps. The couple and the child immediately looked this way, and Lv Xianger also saw the faces of Song Fang and Hui. Song Fang's appearance is really unimaginable with Song Beiqiao and Song Yuan.
Song Fang's white face, elegant long beard, implicit smile, and neat and clean gown can make people see that this elegant literati. Although I heard that Hui is as big as Song Yuan, her appearance is much younger than Lv Erniang. Moreover, her smile and nobleness all made it obvious that she came from a famous family. As for that child, it is a reduced version of Song Fang, but his eyes are still naive.
But knowing the real identity of Song Fang, Lv Xianger, Lv Hong and Chaoxia are a little tight. After the two sides saw the ceremony, the three sat next to Lv Erniang and listened to the elders. Huo Qingqing, who has always been lively, sat quietly next to Huo Qingsong, not as happy as before. If Lv Xianger hadn't found Huo Qingqing's smart and straight eyes, she would have really thought that her nature had changed.
Song Beiqiao seemed to see that the atmosphere in the hall was a little depressing. He laughed and shouted, "Since everyone has arrived, let's have a table." Today is a family banquet. There are not so many rules. Everyone is sitting at a table, which also makes me happy. Speaking of which, the government has not been so lively for a long time.
"What the old master said is that the little one is going to let people have a banquet." The stewor of Song Da obviously knew Song Beiqiao very well. Seeing his smile, the joy on the face of the stewor Song did not pretend at all.
When Song Daguan came out of the hall, Song Beiqiao also got up, pulled up the child and wink at Huo Qingqing. Huo Qingqing looked at Huo Qingsong and nodded before running to the other side of Song Beiqiao. At the same time, Huo Qingqing also made a grimace to the child, which made the child smile. But after thinking about something, he immediately put away his smile, but there was still a smile in his eyes. After walking out of the hall with Song Beiqiao, he also looked at Lv Xianger and Lv Hong curiously.
Song Beiqiao was the first to come out of the hall, and Song Fang and his wife Hui followed him. Song Yuan looked at the two people in front of him and pulled Lv Erniang beside him and followed him closely. Lv Erniang was pulled by Song Yuan, and her face was immediately a little hung up. She didn't care about Lv Xianger, Lv Hong, and Huo Qingsong's three juniors behind her, and stared at Song Yuan fiercely. Song Yuan narrowed his eyes and smiled, as if he was enjoying it, which made Lv Erniang very helpless.
