Chapter 74 Sisterhood Collapses
Chapter 74 Sisterhood collapses
"But now that the Holy One has granted marriage to you and Pei Lin, it is no longer possible for you to enter the palace and choose a concubine. Your sister is of the right age. If she is elected as a concubine, it will be good for you."
Li gently patted Song Baozhu's hand and said in a seductive voice: "Think about it, you will be the concubine's eldest sister by then. With this status, when you marry into the Pei Mansion, everyone in the Pei family will
I have to respect you a lot."
Song Baozhu knew what she said made sense, but she felt uncomfortable, as if she was holding a breath that she couldn't spit out or swallow.
"But it was obviously me who wanted to enter the palace to choose the concubine from the beginning. If that fool Pei Lin hadn't suddenly appeared, Song Baochai would never have had her turn!"
Li Shi frowned slightly dissatisfied. She knew what her daughter's temper was like, so in order not to cause trouble, she had to reprimand her sternly: "What do you have to be wronged about? You didn't do it yourself, Pei Lin."
"If you don't get involved with him, then you sisters can all enter the palace. Then our second wife will truly make a comeback in the Song family."
"I'm telling you, right now our second wife's hopes are all on your sister. You'd better not have any evil thoughts and just wait to marry Pei Lin."
Song Baozhu felt aggrieved, but now she was reprimanded like this by Li. She was angry and had no choice but to leave angrily.
At this moment, she wanted to find someone to complain to, but after thinking about it, there was no one in the entire Song family to whom she could complain.
Here, Song Baoling was watering the flowers in the courtyard. When he heard the noise coming from the gate of Bieyuan, he immediately guessed that something good was about to happen.
"Ling'er!"
Song Baozhu ran to the stone table and sat down, sobbing: "They all bullied me. First they forced me to marry a fool, and now they asked Song Baochai to replace me in the palace to choose a concubine."
Um...what's the logic of this?
"Sister Zhu'er, are you mad? You are the one who wants to marry Mr. Pei. Naturally, you cannot enter the palace to choose a concubine. How can you take the place of me?"
Song Baoling walked to sit opposite her and continued: "Although the second sister is not as beautiful as Sister Zhu'er, she is a girl waiting to be married and is qualified to participate in the selection of concubines."
Hearing what she said, Song Baozhu became even more unconvinced, "Before, my mother said she would let me enter the palace to be drafted, but in the blink of an eye she wanted to marry me to that fool Pei Lin, and instead let Song Baochai enter the palace."
"She's not as good-looking as me, and she can't compare to me in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Why is it her?!"
Song Baoling sighed softly after hearing this and comforted her: "The matter is now over, don't let your mind wander, maybe the second sister can't be chosen?"
Speaking of this, Song Baoling pretended to be unintentional and said: "But if the second sister is successfully elected, then we must remember to kneel down to her when we meet again in the future, and we must not lose etiquette."
Song Baozhu only felt like a blow to the head, asking her to kneel down to Song Baochai? This was absolutely impossible!
Anyway, if she can't choose a concubine, then Song Baochai won't even think about it!
After Song Baozhu left with a thoughtful look on his face, Song Baoling's mood improved and she immediately left the house to find Zhou He.
After arriving at the Zhou Mansion, she learned that Zhou He was injured in the military camp and had not returned home in the past few days.
Military camp——
Jun Tingsheng hid in the military camp for two days in order to avoid his father's pressure to get married. Although this could not solve the fundamental problem, for him, it was a day to delay.
As for Song Baoling, even if Song Baichuan prevented them from meeting, he would never give up.
"Your Majesty, the young lady from the Song family is here."
Jun Tingsheng was startled when he heard this, "Ling'er is here? What is she doing here? Where is she?"
"I'm over at the training ground right now. As for what I'm doing here, the young lady didn't say anything."
As soon as he heard that someone was at the training ground, Jun Tingsheng immediately stood up and ran out quickly. That place was usually the most crowded place in the entire military camp. What was Ling'er doing there?
"So you are the Marquis's little daughter. You are so cute."
"The Marquis usually has a stern face, but I didn't expect the young lady to be so cheerful. I guess she must have inherited it from Mrs. Marquis."
"That's right, the little lady looks so cute, so you have to be careful when you go out in the future..."
Song Baoling was surrounded by a group of big bosses and praised her, and she felt happy. Although these people looked a bit fierce, she felt no turbidity here.
"What are you doing?"
A sharp voice came, and everyone followed the sound. The moment they saw Jun Tingsheng, everyone immediately stood up straight.
Jun Tingsheng walked over, looked at them, and said solemnly: "You have nothing to do, right? Then continue training for me, and you are not allowed to return to the barracks for less than two hours."
Suddenly, everyone started complaining. When they saw Jun Tingsheng's cold gaze, they were so frightened that they immediately ran to the training ground.
"What are you doing here? This is not the place you should be."
Song Baoling curled her lips unhappily and whispered: "I heard that Zhou He is recuperating here after being injured. Can you take me to see him?"
Knowing that she came here to find Zhou He, Jun Tingsheng felt a little disgusted. When he subconsciously wanted to refuse, he saw her looking at him expectantly. Under such circumstances, he couldn't say no.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find him."
Song Baoling hurriedly followed. She walked behind Jun Tingsheng. Looking at his tall and straight figure and broad back, her face felt slightly hot for some reason.
Everyone knows that the son of King Chengyang is as tall as a tree, and he is also a humble gentleman, capable of both literary and military skills. He is the best candidate for the husband that thousands of girls dream of marrying.
"This is it."
Jun Tingsheng suddenly interrupted Song Baoling's thoughts. She looked at the tent in front of her, hesitated, opened the curtain and went in.
"Ling'er? You...are you here to see me? You are so kind!"
Listening to Zhou He's cheerful voice, Jun Tingsheng couldn't help clenching his fists. He wanted to let them be alone for a while, but now it seemed...
Absolutely impossible!
Zhou He was talking to Song Baoling when the curtain was lifted again and Jun Tingsheng followed in with a dark face.
When Zhou He saw him, his whole body felt bad. He had not forgotten that just two days ago, he was defeated by Jun Tingsheng in public and was even injured.
"What is the prince doing here again? Are you targeting me deliberately?"
Zhou He was angry in his heart, and his tone of voice was naturally unpleasant. But Song Baoling, who was next to him, heard another meaning and asked doubtfully: "You said the prince is targeting you?"
While speaking, Song Baoling's eyes moved to Jun Tingsheng, and the moment the two looked at each other, the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Zhou He did not notice anything unusual between the two of them, and complained to Song Baoling with some grievance, "That day I proposed to discuss with the Crown Prince, but the Crown Prince showed no mercy at all."
"If you don't want to stay, then don't stay. We agreed that it was a sparring match, but in the end, I was beaten so hard that I couldn't even go to the ground for two days."
Jun Tingsheng frowned at him and scolded him coldly: "Young Master Zhou, can you still be a little manly?"
