Daughter Reborn as the Head of the Family

Chapter 76 Seeing off guests

The prince felt a chill all over his body.

I can only laugh to ease the embarrassment.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I still have things to be busy with."

Song Jinyue saw that the prince had no intention of leaving, and she did not want to order the kitchen to prepare food for the prince.

She really didn't want to sit at the same table with He Yuanzhen. If he was just the prince's cousin, then there was no need for her to act like she was rejecting people from thousands of miles away today.

In fact, I don’t have a single word to say to He Yuanjie.

"Brother Crown Prince, let's go first." He Yuanjie stood up and bowed to the Crown Prince.

The prince nodded and then stood up slowly.

When passing by Song Jinyue, he looked at Song Jinyue carefully, trying to detect something fishy about her purpose, but he found nothing.

He Yuanjie was a few steps behind the prince, and when he saw Song Jinyue's expression, he suddenly stopped and took a dark look in his eyes.

Song Jinyue looked back at He Yuanjian lightly, without any fear or emotion in her eyes.

Seeing her like this, He Yuanzhen swallowed back what he wanted to say, turned around and walked out of the main hall.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, the second sister didn't let you have dinner?" Song Jinxi's bright and soft voice sounded slowly outside the door.

Song Jinyue raised her eyebrows slightly, pursed her lips, and had to go out to talk.

She just stepped out of the main hall and saw Song Jinxi saluting the crown prince and the fifth prince. Today Song Jinxi specially wore a red double-breasted Confucian jacket and a gold-trimmed pleated red skirt. Her skin was made of snow and white and rosy.

.

It is quite charming and charming, and the bright red dress worn by Song Jinxi does not look out of place at all.

Along with the light and delicate makeup, it is obvious that she has been dressed up carefully.

"No, the prince and brother still have things to do." He Yuanjie rejected Song Jinxi's kindness.

But the excuse was given by the prince, not himself.

Song Jinyue did not answer and stood in front of the main hall door. Song Jinxi glanced at her, smiled and said: "Second sister, it is lunch time now, why don't you leave your two highnesses to have dinner in the house? If you are

Your Highness has returned to the palace and will miss the meal time."

Song Jinxi looked caring and considerate, but Song Jinyue was a bit ignorant.

But Song Jinyue had no intention of answering, and only looked at Song Jinxi lightly.

Song Jinxi was a little frightened by what she was looking at. She laughed slightly awkwardly and spoke again, "Second sister, my grandmother said that she would allow the two highnesses to have dinner in the house.

"

He actually moved Mrs. Song out, thinking that Mrs. Song's current leg injury would soon be healed, so she had been quietly shrinking in her own courtyard these days, staying behind closed doors.

"Oh, I'll follow my grandmother's wishes, but I really have to leave the house for something, so I won't be dining with your two highnesses." Song Jinyue bowed and explained while looking at the prince and the fifth prince.

Song Jinyue was not in the palace, and the prince couldn't see Yan'er. He was not willing to eat in the Duke's palace, so he hurriedly said: "I have something to do when I return to the palace, so I won't disturb the Duke's palace. I thank Mrs. Song for her kindness."

, Gu Zai will visit you someday."

The prince had spoken, and He Yuanzhen was bound to follow him.

Song Jinyue asked Song Jinxi to send the two of them out of the house on the pretext of rushing back to change clothes.

But she didn't really go back to Mingzhuxuan, but followed them from a distance.

By the time the prince got on the horse, he had walked a long way. He Yuanzhen had not left yet, but turned around and went to a side alley.

The maid next to Song Jinxi dismissed the boy at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, and Song Jinxi then went from the gate to the alley where He Yuan frame was standing.

Song Jinyue followed from the other side. The maidservant was worried about the young man and did not notice that the second lady took Qiuyun to the alley.

Qiu Yun's heart was beating fast, and she covered her lips, fearing that her breathing would be loud enough for the eldest lady and the fifth prince to hear.

I don’t know why the young lady came to listen to the corner. Maybe she is bored?

With this understanding, Qiu Yun felt that it was the easiest thing to listen to the things that happened these days.

Song Jinyue had no expression on her face, leaning against the wall and listening.

This alley is not careful, it's only two feet long.

Because the alley corridors are narrow, not many people usually go in and out. The narrow alley is filled with old wooden barrels and bamboo poles.

The dark and damp smell assaulted her nostrils, and Song Jinyue took a handkerchief and covered the tip of her nose.

"Yuan Zhen... you, do you really want to marry your second sister?" Song Jinxi's voice was trembling.

"Xi'er, you know that the Queen decreed a marriage between me and Song Jinyue. Even if neither of us wants to get married, this marriage must happen!"

"But... you haven't come to see me these days." Song Jinxi's voice was filled with tears.

There was silence in the alley for a long time, and I don't know how He Yuanzhen persuaded him.

When Song Jinxi spoke again, her voice was obviously a little cheerful, "Yuan Zhen, when will you come to see me again?"

"I'll come see you when I'm done with this."

"Yuan frame, will you really marry me?"

Song Jinyue listened to the conversation between the two. After Song Jinxi said this, Song Jinyue could clearly hear the fear in Song Jinxi's heart.

But He Yuanjie didn't speak.

Song Jinxi didn't ask any more questions, and the sound of a woman sobbing softly came from the alley.

Song Jinyue tugged at her lips and rolled her eyes.

Didn't He Yuanjian, a scumbag, make it clear that he didn't want to take responsibility? Song Jinxi might have noticed it, so she panicked and cried because of her own situation.

"Sister, don't worry. I won't compete with you for the position of the fifth prince's concubine. I don't care about it." Song Jinyue walked in in two or two steps.

By chance, I bumped into Song Jinyue huddled in He Yuanzhen's arms. The two were hugging each other. It was very touching to see the true love between them.

But when the two of them saw her coming, their bodies stiffened instinctively. He Yuanzhen pushed Song Jinyue away and took a step back.

Clearing her throat, she turned away and left this embarrassing situation to Song Jinxi to handle.

"Then I wish the eldest sister and the fifth prince will achieve positive results as soon as possible and no longer have to hide and have secret meetings like this!" Song Jinyue emphasized the word "private meetings" specially.

Song Jinxi's pale little face suddenly showed a hint of shame and anger.

She wanted to defend herself, but she thought that Song Jinyue had already known about the affair between her and the fifth prince, and now he found an opportunity to break it. This was clearly meant to embarrass her.

For a moment, Song Jinxi closed her lips silently without saying another word.

She lowered her head, looking at the handkerchief twisted in her hands, and remained silent.

Song Jinyue smiled lightly, glanced at the two of them again, and said calmly: "I won't disturb you two, continue."

After saying this, Song Jinyue walked up to Song Jinxi, knelt down, picked up a white jade medallion with a pair of fishes from Song Jinxi's feet, and slowly took the jade medallion into her hand.

He stood up slowly, turned around and walked out of the alley without saying another word.

Song Jinxi was about to catch up and ask for the jade plaque, but He Yuanjian stopped Song Jinxi and told her to forget it and not to publicize the matter.
