Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 58
As soon as Song Taifu entered the imperial study, he knelt tremblingly and pleaded guilty: "The emperor forgives the crime, the old minister is ashamed of the emperor, and did not raise his granddaughter well, please punish the emperor."

"Teacher, please get up." After speaking, Emperor Yong'an said again: "Give the seat to Grand Tutor."

Although Emperor Yong'an was dissatisfied with the Song family, he didn't want to embarrass Song Taifu. No matter what, Song Taifu was also a teacher who taught him a lesson.

Zhao Quanfu personally moved the chair and put it behind Song Taifu, but Song Taifu still knelt on the ground and said: "The old minister thanked the emperor for his love, but the old minister really has no face to face the emperor's kindness, the son of the old minister has no way to teach his daughter, and the daughter he raised does not know the heights of heaven and earth. Lies come out as soon as you open your mouth, and you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor, so please punish the emperor."

Emperor Yong'an heard the words, smiled lightly and said: "Teacher is serious, Song Shangshu has no way to teach girls, I will punish Song Shangshu, but since ancient times, I have only heard of the fault of not raising the father, who has heard of children not being raised well?" Grandfather is responsible, this matter is not the teacher's fault, why should I punish the teacher, the teacher should please."

Song Taifu was relieved when he heard Emperor Yong'an said that he would punish Song Shangshu. As long as the emperor is willing to punish Song Shangshu at this time, instead of not issuing it, it means that although the emperor is dissatisfied with their family, he is still willing to give them a punishment. a chance.

Although the road ahead for their family will probably be much more difficult, there should be no problem in retreating from the court, but the glory of the Song family ends here.

"The old minister thanked the emperor." Song Taifu sighed silently, kowtowed to Emperor Yong'an and got up.

Song Taifu stayed in the imperial study for half an hour before going out. When he went out, he glanced at his son who was still kneeling outside, and shook his head. The glory of the Song family, which could last for decades, was finally destroyed by his son's greed .

Song Shangshu had been kneeling outside Qianning Palace for a long time before Emperor Yong'an was let in.

Song Shangshu, who was called into the imperial study, knelt in the study and listened to Emperor Yong'an's reprimand, and was fined by Emperor Yong'an with a year's salary before limping out of the palace.

Back at Song Mansion, Song Taifu was waiting for him in the front hall.

"Father, this matter has been exposed, right?" Although Song Shangshu was punished, the result was much better than he thought, and he was still a little grateful in his heart.

Song Taifu glanced at his son, feeling a little powerless in his heart. He is nearly 50 years old, and he is not a boy who has just entered the officialdom, but he doesn't understand the thoughts of the superiors at all. Not wronged.

"For the time being, let's send that girl Jinqian to a nunnery outside the city later. From now on, it will be assumed that the Song family does not have this daughter."

Seeing that his son still showed hesitation, Taifu Song felt even more disappointed, so he didn't try to persuade him anymore, but continued: "I plan to go back to my hometown in Yunjiang tomorrow, and I will live a pastoral life there in the future. I will leave the family to you, and think about everything you do.”

"Father..." Song Shangshu turned pale with shock.

Song Taifu waved his hand, "I've already made up my mind, don't try to persuade me."

Song Shangshu came out from Song Taifu, returned to his yard, and told Mrs. Song about sending Song Jinqian to the nunnery. Mrs. Song whispered with tears: "Aren't you all right? Why are you sending Qian'er there?" The place, the life in that place is poor, and you have to do everything yourself, Qian'er has been served by maids since she was a child, how did she suffer so much?"

Song Shangshu was upset and said: "There are so many reasons, if you are asked to do it, just do it."

Mrs. Song glanced at Song Shangshu and asked, "Did dad say that?"

As Mrs. Song said, she was about to get up and look for Song Taifu. "I'm going to beg my father."

Song Shangshu stopped her and said, "You don't have to go, Dad has already decided to go back to Yunjiang's hometown tomorrow. I have the final say on this family now. You can send her to a nunnery if you want..."

Before Song Shangshu finished speaking, Mrs. Song said happily: "Really?"

Song Shangshu ignored Mrs. Song's question and continued: "If you don't want to send her to a nunnery, then you should go and prepare her funeral. Anyway, the Song family will not have this daughter in the future."

After Song Shangshu finished speaking, he ignored Madam Song who was standing there blankly, and turned around to go to the concubine's room.

Song Jinqian was still sent to a nunnery outside the city early the next morning, and Song Taifu's carriage also left the Song Mansion and returned to his hometown in Yunjiang.

Song Yuyi in the palace didn't have any mood swings when she heard the news, and now her limited energy was basically focused on the fifth princess.

"Is the fifth princess awake? If so, let the nanny bring her in and let me see."

"Slaves, let's go and have a look." Chaoyun said and went to the side hall where the fifth princess lived.

After a while, the wet nurse came in with the fifth princess in her arms.

The fifth princess was placed next to Song Yuyi. Song Yuyi looked at her thin daughter and asked the wet nurse, "How is the fifth princess today? Are you feeling well?"

The nurse of the fifth princess replied: "Going back to your mother, the fifth princess is in good spirits today. She has taken a few more mouthfuls of milk than yesterday, and the spitting up is a little lighter than before."

Song Yuyi nodded, asked Chaoyun to admire the wet nurse's things, and said: "You have worked hard to take care of the fifth princess, and continue to take good care of the fifth princess in the future."

The wet nurse thanked her a lot: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the servants will take good care of the fifth princess."

After all, the fifth princess was relatively weak, and she became sleepy after lying next to Song Yuyi for a while, so Song Yuyi asked the wet nurse to carry the fifth princess down to sleep.

Song Yuyi half leaned on the bed and stared at the direction where the fifth princess was leaving for a while, then suddenly asked Zhao Yun and Mu Yu, "Who do you think the emperor will hand over to the fifth princess after I leave?"

Both Zhao Yun and Mu Yu didn't open their mouths, Song Yuyi smiled and said: "You two don't have to worry about it, I will leave sooner or later, it's not that if we keep silent about this matter, this matter won't happen, this is self-deception, I have nothing to do now It’s time for discussion, and I want to hear your opinions.”

Zhao Yun and Mu Yu glanced at each other, and it was Zhao Yun who spoke first: "Your Majesty, this servant thinks it's more likely that it's Concubine Gao Xian, after all, among the three concubines now, there is no princess under Concubine Gao Xian's name. "

Mu Yu said: "My maidservant thinks that Yu Chongrong is more likely. Although Concubine Xian is a concubine, the emperor has never liked her very much, but Yu Chongrong has always been liked by the emperor, and he was promoted to the position of ninth concubine not long ago. The emperor is likely to ask her to educate the fifth princess."

"These two people..." Song Yuyi shook her head, Concubine Gao Xian was so angry that she might not want to raise the fifth princess, Yu Chongrong, let's see again, she still has a while to live, presumably the emperor is looking at the past love She is willing to give the fifth princess to the upbringing of someone she chooses.

When Song Yiyi mentioned Yu Chongrong, Yu Chongrong sent people to send posts to various places in the palace.

The post to Yufuyuan was personally sent by Yu Chongrong's grand lady Yayin.
