Chapter 67 Spreading Rumors and Putting Pressure
Rumors suddenly spread in the market, which attracted Song Baichuan's attention. He thought about the relevant people, and finally suspected that Pei Shilang was dishonest and spread rumors to put pressure on the Song family.

However, before he came to the door to argue, Pei Shilang impeached the Song family in the early court.

"Your Majesty, my son and the second eldest daughter of the Song family fell in love with each other and returned the token in private, so I went to the Song Mansion to propose marriage for the son a few days ago, but the second wife refused to admit it to death."

"Although Lord Hou promised to give me an explanation within five days, all the people in the capital are now discussing this matter, and my son has been arranged by them in various ways. He is really innocent. I hope the Holy Majesty will make the decision for the old minister."

After Pei Shilang finished speaking, whispers suddenly sounded in the hall, and Song Baichuan's face was very ugly when he saw this.

I saw Jun Yelan glanced at all civil and military officials, and finally his eyes fell on Song Baichuan, "Song Aiqing, I ask you, is what Pei Shilang said just now true?"

Song Baichuan stepped forward and knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at him: "My lord, what Pei Shilang said is indeed true, but I really can't say for sure whether Young Master Ling and my niece agree with each other."

As soon as this remark came out, Pei Shilang immediately said: "Could it be possible that Hou Ye forgot that your niece's token is still in my son's hands. If it wasn't for a good match, why did she give my son a token?"

"Why, do you think my son is stupid and easy to bully, and you want to play tricks?"

Song Baichuan was speechless about this, he planned to find out the matter, but the rumors interrupted his plan, now...

"You two lovers, don't quarrel. It's a good thing. It's not good if you hurt your peace."

Jun Yelan comforted the two of them with a smile. Seeing Song Baichuan's sullen face and not speaking, and Pei Shilang's angry face, he felt a little dizzy for a while.

This matter... is really difficult to handle.

Pei Shilang's wife loves her son very much, if this matter fails, I'm afraid that the house will be uneasy, and then troubles will come to me again.

The second room of the Song family...it's easy to solve if you think about it.

"I understand everything, so how about it, since the man has a lover and a concubine is interested, then I will be a matchmaker today, and I will give you a marriage so that your Pei and Song families can tie the knot, how about it?"

Pei Shilang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "Minister, thank you for your upper body."

When the matter developed to this point, Song Baichuan was really helpless, so he could only kneel down and thank him.

When the news of the marriage was sent back to the Song Mansion, the second room suddenly seemed to have collapsed, and the mother and daughter were in a turmoil.

"It's better to let our mother and daughter die together than to let my Zhu'er get married."

Li came to the lake with Song Baozhu in his arms, crying and wanting to throw himself into the river, but the servants stopped and tried to persuade her.

Song Baoling watched the excitement for a while, guessed that it was almost there, and then ran forward pretending to be anxious.

"Second Aunt, don't be too hard on yourself..."

"I heard that although Mr. Pei is a bit stupid, the eldest wife of the Pei family loves him very much. If sister Zhu'er marries, they will definitely not treat her badly."

Li Shi suddenly paused, then turned to look at Song Baoling: "What did you say?"

Song Baoling immediately stopped her when he saw the play, and continued to persuade: "I heard people say on the street that if sister Zhu'er marries to Pei's residence, she will be the hostess in the future."

"They also said that the Pei family has such a large family business, even if Mr. Pei is not very smart, it is still enough to make sister Zhu'er rich and well-off for a lifetime."

When Li Shi heard her words, her eyes lit up in an instant. She naturally knew Pei Lin's family background, and she wanted Zhu'er to enter the palace for a draft, so she wholeheartedly refused.

But now that the incident is known all over the city, the possibility of Zhu'er being drafted is probably very small. If she misses this opportunity again, she may not be so lucky in the future.

"Ling'er, from what you said, it seems quite reasonable."

Song Baoling smiled obediently and nodded, "Of course, if Sister Zhu'er marries well, wouldn't our Song Mansion be even more prosperous?"

Hearing what she said, Li became more certain, "You're right, if we get married, then Zhu'er will be Mrs. Pei."

Song Baozhu was completely dumbfounded. After regaining her senses, she cried and shouted: "Mother, I don't want to marry that fool, I won't marry."

"Zhu'er, listen to your mother. With the status of the Pei family in the capital, you will surely live a good life when you marry."

"Then I won't marry either, I want to enter the palace for draft."

"What kind of show is selected, the Holy Majesty has given a marriage, do you want to resist the decree?"

"Anyway, I just don't want to marry Pei Lin, mother..."

Song Baozhu never wanted to marry, and Li Shi, who was blinded by interests, immediately locked her up forcibly when she saw this.

The next day, Song Baoling went to the other garden of the second room after having breakfast, and lied to Mrs. Li that he wanted to persuade Song Baozhu, and successfully entered the house.

"What are you doing here?"

Song Baozhu asked angrily, then snorted coldly, "Mother changed her mind because of you, you just don't want me to feel better!"

Hearing this, Song Baoling didn't refute, but said with a smile: "Sister Zhu'er is so smart, but I'm here today to tell you something."

"In order to let Sister Zhu'er know more about Pei Lin, I asked someone to inquire about it. Guess what I found out?"

Seeing the weird smile on her face, Song Baozhu shrank back in fear, "What?"

Seeing her like this, Song Baoling couldn't help but smile, "It seems that you really want to know, so I'll tell you kindly."

"That talented Mr. Pei actually likes to torture and kill small animals, such as kittens, puppies, and rabbits. Countless people died in his hands."

Song Baozhu's face turned pale immediately, she swallowed her saliva nervously, and forced herself to speak in a panic: "Impossible, no matter how stupid he is, he won't..."

"It's because of stupidity that such a terrible thing is done. Who would be so cruel to a normal person?"

Song Baoling interrupted her bluntly, seeing how frightened she was, he smiled and patted her on the shoulder.

"So, if Sister Zhu'er is married, you must be careful, especially at night, don't be treated like a cat by him..."

Speaking of this, Song Baoling made a gesture of wiping her neck, looked at her frozen face, laughed and walked away.

"what!"

Song Baozhu's scream came from behind, and when Li Shi heard it, she wanted to go into the house to see her, but was stopped by Song Baoling.

"Second Aunt, Sister Zhu'er still doesn't want to marry. I think it's better to let her be quiet for a while. When she calms down and thinks carefully, maybe she can figure it out."

Li looked around the room with some hesitation, but was finally persuaded by Song Baoling and did not go in to see Song Baozhu.

At this moment, Song Baozhu was curled up on the bed, his mind was full of what Song Baoling said, and the movement of her wiping her neck.

"No, she must have deliberately scared me..."

"She's taking revenge on me, yes, she must be taking revenge on me, trying to scare me..."
