Chapter 10 010: She is not worth the prince’s pain

As the favorite daughter of the Song family, everything about Song Jiu is the best.

Outside the gate, an exquisite and luxurious carriage was parked in front of the door. The snow-white horse was the top-quality horse that Song Xun had painstakingly found for her.

As soon as Song Jiu got into the carriage, Song Yan lifted the curtain and got in.

"You are still injured. What if you go to Prince Yan's Mansion alone and suffer a loss? Fifth sister, are you right?"

Song Jiu: "..." You don't need to explain it so clearly.

I obviously think you are more like a spectator.

Prince Yan's Mansion.

The once glorious mansion with its crowded entrance is now in a state of depression.

Minzhou fell seven years ago. King Lao Yan used his troops improperly and was defeated, resulting in numerous casualties. Daliang lost seven cities in a row. In the end, Song Xun and Zhongyong Hou Zhou Kun mobilized soldiers and horses from their respective guarding places to jointly repel the enemy. It took two years to regain the city.

.

The emperor was furious and severely punished the Xiao family, confiscating their property and using it as pensions to comfort the soldiers who died in the war.

But because the old King Yan had made great military exploits, he was not deprived of the throne.

After the death of the old King Yan, the eldest son succeeded him as King Yan, Xiao Qinghan, but he only held the title of King Yan, and lived a miserable life without money.

Today's Prince Yan's Mansion has a simple population. In addition to Xiao Qinghan, there are also the step-concubine of the old Prince Yan, her son, daughter-in-law, and daughter.

Most of the servants dispersed seven years ago, and the mansion cannot afford to support so many.

The old princess Qin is very ostentatious, so even if the palace cannot make ends meet, she is not willing to wrong herself, so there are still ten people serving her, but the power of the family is in her hands, Xiao Qinghan can't control it, let alone

He was only thirteen years old when something happened to the Xiao family, so it was not his turn to make the decision.

Half of the courtyards of the huge palace were vacant, and over time no one cleaned them. Because the number of servants decreased, in order to save money, the masters of the palace moved to several courtyards on the east side, so that when walking in Prince Yan's palace,

You will see that the east side is clean and tidy, and the flowers and trees are neatly trimmed. The scenery is not pleasant, but it is beautiful.

Other places are overgrown with weeds and almost untouched.

Xiao Qinghan lives in the front yard.

He was striding forward with his shouting clothes and flying sleeves. He was one of King Yan's bodyguards.

"Ming'an, is the prince still in the study?" He looked at Ming'an who was squatting in the corridor with a resentful look on his face and asked.

Ming'an, like Chang Xiao, is the bodyguard of King Yan, and grew up with King Yan since childhood.

"Yes." Ming An raised his round baby face and made a muffled sound from his throat: "Except for telling you to go to the Song family to cancel the engagement an hour ago, he has never made any sound."

In fact, the prince has locked himself in the study since yesterday. He has not eaten or drank for a day and a night.

Until this morning, I called Chang Xiao in, handed him a brocade box, and asked him to go to the Song family to cancel the engagement.

"The prince is so stupid. Why did he take the initiative to cancel the engagement? In my opinion, Miss Song Wu should be wasted and asked to cuckold our prince. Why should she and the sixth prince sleep together and fly together without canceling the engagement? I'm so angry.

Kill them." Ming An said angrily.

Chang Xiao glanced at Ming An speechlessly and scolded: "Don't let the prince hear this."

Ming'an snorted coldly from his nose and stopped talking.

He and Chang Xiao have been with the prince for many years, and can be said to be the people in the palace who know him best.

It is obvious that the prince has been looking forward to Miss Song Wu and her hairpin for so many years, so how could he be willing to withdraw from this marriage.

Isn't it just to fulfill her?

Ming'an just doesn't deserve to stand up for his master. Why should his prince have to give in while Miss Song Wu gets what she wants?

Chang Xiao understood Ming An's resentment, sighed, and walked towards the study.

He knocked on the door and shouted: "Your Majesty."

After waiting for a long time, Xiao Qinghan's voice came from inside: "Come in."

At this time, his voice seemed to have been rubbed by gravel, making it rough and harsh.

Chang Xiao opened the door and walked in.

In front of the desk was Xiao Qinghan's slender back, slightly hunched. Chang Xiao couldn't see his face, but he could see the desolate aura around him.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates met with the Third Young Master of Song Dynasty and returned the betrothal jade pendant to him. However, they did not get the jade pendant in the hands of the fifth lady. The Third Young Master said that it will be delivered to the palace in the near future." Chang Xiao reported back.

When Xiao Qinghan heard the words, he shrank his fingers slightly, and his chest suddenly felt empty. The endless cold wind blew in, biting the bones.

Chang Xiao paused for a moment and then said: "My lord, you have not eaten or drank for a whole day and a night, and the residual poison in your body has not been cleared away. How can your body bear it if you continue like this?"

Not long ago, the prince was stabbed and injured in the paddock during the royal hunting. The knife was smeared with poison. Fortunately, the vital part was not injured. The removal of toxins from the body did not happen overnight. While he was recovering from his injuries, he suddenly learned that Song

Jiu made a fuss about breaking off the engagement, even to the point of threatening death, and the prince suffered a new injury before he healed.

Xiao Qinghan: "..."

"Forgive me for talking too much. There are so many women in the world, and there are many who are gentler and kinder than Miss Fifth. There is no need for the prince to worry about her. She is not worth it at all."

"Get out." Xiao Qinghan suddenly said coldly.

Chang Xiao was shocked and was too busy to say anything, so he turned around and left.

His words touched his master's back.

The carriage stopped at the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion.

Song Jiu got out of the car and raised his head slightly.

The plaque with the words "Prince Yan's Mansion" written on it is dilapidated, and a lot of paint on the door has fallen off.

Song Yan stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After waiting for a long time, someone opened the door.

It's not the main door that opens, but a small door on the side.

The Prince of Yan's Mansion was defeated and reprimanded by the emperor. The people had long lost their respect for the Xiao family, and the nobles in the capital would avoid them after their downfall, let alone visit them. Therefore, now the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion has almost become

There is really no need to open the decorations.

Not to mention that the current Prince Yan's Mansion does not have the extra money to hold a banquet. Even if there is a banquet, the number of people who come can be counted on five fingers.
