Don't panic, my mother and I are dressed as Houfu mother-in-law and daughter-in-law!

Chapter 87 It's useless to ask me to cry!

Except for Bu Tian, ​​no one can understand how complicated Song Hengye's heart is at this time.

The knuckles of the fingers holding the imperial decree turned white, and he stood there quietly like that, but Gu Qingyou clearly felt the endless oppression, resentment, and sense of loss of wanting to struggle but being powerless from him, like burning coals and melting into ashes , no more vitality.

Even Xue Lan noticed the change in him, and stood there looking at him worriedly.

"Tsk, I didn't expect the Holy One to be so caring about my second brother that he would take the initiative to ask you to stay in Beijing to observe your filial piety."

Song Chengye got up and brushed off the dust on the hem of his clothes, his words were a little sour.

"But it's true. When my father was alive, he cared more about you than my own son. I think the second brother is willing to stay to show his filial piety."

Song Hengye had no intention of arguing with him. Looking at the white lantern above the mansion gate, he came back to his senses. He looked away for a long time, and said to Xue Lan: "Hengye remembers that there are still some things that need to be dealt with outside the city. Madam, let's go to the mansion early to rest."

Hundreds of brothers outside the city are still waiting for him to go back to the Northwest camp together, and now, they can only go north first.

Bu Tian was about to follow, but Song Hengye waved his hand to stop him: "I'll go back as soon as I go, you go back home to recover from your injuries."

Xue Lan said behind him: "Remember to go home early, mother is waiting for you to have breakfast together."

I don't know if the figure on the horse heard it or not, and soon disappeared at the end of the long street. The tall and straight figure was lonely and desolate, as if he had been abandoned in the ancient night, and no one could redeem him. Darkness swallows.

Gu Qingyou looked away, not knowing why she felt this way.

But she could clearly see that Song Hengye didn't seem to want to stay in Beijing?

"Pristine! I'm sure I'm eager to stay in Beijing, who is showing this appearance on purpose?"

A sharp and harsh words suddenly rang in my ears, who else could there be besides Xue Lin'er?

Gu Qingyou looked back at her dissatisfied: "Aunt Lin, be careful, it's not a good habit to wantonly speculate on others."

No matter why Song Hengye was like this, now that she was on the street, and in front of many servants and people from the Ministry of Rites, she subconsciously defended it.

"What I said is clearly the truth!"

"Enough! Don't be ashamed outside!"

Just as Xue Liner was about to retort, Xue Lan's words frightened her into silence, and she muttered reluctantly: "I know."

Tired for a day, now I just want to go back and lie down. As for Hengye, even if he wants to help, he can't intervene. He can only relieve himself slowly.

Xue Lan ordered everyone to settle down individually, while she took Gu Qingyou directly back to her room.

Song Chengye followed closely, saying that he had something to discuss with her, but she was also ruthlessly driven away, "What do you have to say now? Are you not going to live until tomorrow?"

Song Chengye had no choice but to retreat in embarrassment, and before leaving, he glanced at Gu Qingyou and couldn't help but pause.

She was in a hurry to go out in the morning, so she didn't even have time to comb her hair in a bun, so she simply tied it with a hair band at the back, and her temple hair was casually draped over her shoulders, adding a bit of charm to her lazy expression, so she subconsciously I took a look.

The result fell into Xue Lin'er's eyes, and she undoubtedly added a bit of hatred towards Gu Qingyou, she hurried over and took Song Chengye's arm and said, "I serve my husband, let's go back and rest~"

"No, I'm going to sleep in the study."

During the filial piety period, he was not allowed to be close to female sex. Song Chengye has been guarding his concubine for the past few days but he is still in his arms.

Xue Lin'er was rejected, but felt that everyone was laughing at her, so she made a note of Gu Qingyou's head, stomped her feet in shame and anger, and took the girl away.

And Song Chengye was worried about the sudden imperial decree, he didn't care about her little girl's temper at all, and after thinking about it in the study, he couldn't help but come to Xue Lan.

The two mothers couldn't wait to get into the bed, the world was the biggest sleeper, and when they heard the news from outside, one can imagine their mood.

"Don't care about him, just let him wait outside!" Xue Lan didn't open her eyes at all, and said angrily, "Don't you understand people's words? Tell him to come back tomorrow!"

Thinking about Song Hengye's performance just now, Gu Qingyou always felt that there was something they didn't understand, so she pushed her mother: "Why don't we listen to what he has to say?"

Xue Lan endured the anger and put on her clothes, got out of bed and opened the door with a bang. Song Chengye entered the room as if seeing a savior, turned around and closed the door, and said straight to the point: "Mother, what do you mean by the imperial decree of the emperor? Why did he want to Keep Song Hengye in Shangjing?"

The old customs of the Great Jin Dynasty, the funeral of his parents, and those who have an official status have to stay for 27 months. That is to say, Song Hengye will stay in Beijing for at least two years after receiving the imperial edict. How can he not panic?

Xue Lan sat on the chair, swaying from sleepiness: "Isn't he your father's adopted son? It's also necessary to keep filial piety. What's wrong with that?"

Anyway, there were no outsiders, so Song Chengye no longer hesitated to speak, and said bluntly: "The son is afraid of the emperor, and still has the idea of ​​letting Hengye become the lord."

If she was still the Xue family in the past, planning everything for her son, the moment she heard the imperial decree, she would have thought about it with Song Chengye, and she might even run into the palace to make a fuss in order to find out.

Too bad she isn't.

Seeing that she was indifferent, Song Chengye couldn't help standing up and turning around a few times, analyzing: "The emperor once persuaded my father to change Hengye as his son. Although you made a big fuss before giving up, we also know that if father wants to Nodding, no one can stop him from making a decision, after all, it's just that his father doesn't want to give the title to an outsider.

Xue Lan agrees with him on this point. According to her understanding of Song Lian from Xue's memory, although he can't understand Xue's doting on Song Chengye, he still cares about his only son, even if he likes his adopted son. To the point of directly sending out the title.

If Song Lian doesn't nod his head, the emperor can't force it.

"But now that my father is not here, and the emperor still has the idea of ​​changing people, no one can stop him anymore!"

Thinking that the position of the eldest son would be lost soon, Song Hengye fell to his knees and shook Xue Lan's arm: "Mother, you should quickly think of a way! Are you going to just watch him take away the position of the eldest son?"

Gu Qingyou couldn't help but roll her eyes, seeing Song Hengye's reaction just now, it was obvious that the emperor had made his own decisions, this person didn't dare to resent the emperor, instead he put the blame on Song Hengye, he really is a coward!

Xue Lan had no scruples, and said directly: "Who told you to be ignorant in the past? Now that the emperor is determined to replace you, it's useless for you to cry to me!"

Song Chengye knew he was wrong, and after waiting for a long time, he finally revealed his real purpose: "Mother~~ How about, why don't you go to the palace tomorrow to ask the emperor yourself?"

He concluded that Mrs. Xue would not let this matter go unnoticed, as long as she pretended to be pitiful, she would definitely run to the emperor early in the morning to make trouble.

But Xue Lan is not his real mother, let alone not as stupid as Xue Shi.

Based on his understanding of Song Hengye during this period of time, even if he accepted the title, he would not treat their mother and daughter harshly, or even anyone in the Duke's Mansion.
