The two of them walked to the entrance of the house, Song Wan Yue went in first, Song Si was one step behind and bowed towards the Duke of Ding and the others, “Grandfather, Yao’er has woken up, I am going to pay respect to heaven and earth with her, please also ask you and grandfather and the others to wait in the hall.”
The Duke of Ding froze for a moment before the heaviness that had been piling up on his face all day lifted and revealed a smile, he reached out and patted Song Si’s shoulder, greeting everyone in the hall.
Inside the house, Song Wan Yue also whispered a few words in Meng’s and Liu Cui Lan’s ears, and the two nodded, persuading everyone in the house to exit.
Song Wan Yue pretended to put her finger on Xiao Yao’s pulse, her face was a smiling expression, “Sister Yao, don’t worry, with me here, you will be fine.”
Xiao Yao’s eyes were red, she knew she couldn’t die, but she couldn’t marry Song Si again either. She opened her mouth and was just about to speak to the two men straight away, but Song Wangyue nudged her twice in quick succession and Xiao Yao didn’t make a sound.
Song Wan Yue smiled and got up, Xiao Yao subconsciously reached out to pull her, but found that she could not move her hand at all, her eyes widened.
Song Wangyue was already walking towards the outside and closed the door smoothly after walking to the door.
Song Si rearranged his wedding robe, and took Xiao Yao’s wedding dress that he had torn and tossed aside to cover the quilt, picking her up with the quilt, wrapping the wedding dress around her, and lowering his head to give Xiao Yao a kiss on the lips, “You were unconscious, we haven’t worshipped heaven and earth yet, now make up for it.”
Xiao Yao wanted to say no, but she couldn’t make a sound, she wanted to tug at Song Si’s clothes, but her hands couldn’t move, she could only blink desperately to show that she had something to say.
Song Si saw this and his eyes, which were always light, were tinted with a smile, he lowered his head again and kissed Xiao Yao’s lips, “I know you have something to say, I’ll listen to you after the ceremony.”
Xiao Yao wanted to shake her head, but she couldn’t move, so she could only watch as Song Si carried herself out of the new room and into the hall.
The flower hall was filled with people, at the top on the left were Elder Song and Grandma Song, on the right were Song Shu and Liu Cuihua, on the left in order were the Duke Ding and his wife, Xiao Zheng and his wife and Xiao Qian, on the right were Xu and Song Lin, and everyone in the Xu family sat in the back row.
Sister Wu acted as the wedding bride.
Song Si retired on the futon with Xiao Yao in her arms, and Sister Wu’s voice rang out.
“One worship to heaven and earth!”
Song Si hugged Xiao Yao and bowed down.
The Xiao family watched, and when they saw that Xiao Yao did not object, the hearts they were carrying were slightly lowered. They were clear about why Xiao Yao had just vomited blood and were worried when they knew that Song Si was going to hold Xiao Yao and worship Heaven and Earth.
“Second worship to father and mother!”
Song Si turned around with Xiao Yao in her arms and bowed down towards the Song family.
“Husband and wife ……”
Sister Wu wanted to say husband and wife worship, but Xiao Yao could not worship at all in her current state, so she changed her words in a hurry, “Husband and wife embrace each other.”
Song Si’s hand tightened as she hugged Xiao Yao.
“The ceremony is complete, the newlyweds enter the bridal chamber!”
Song Si got up and carried Xiao Yao out.
As he stepped out of the door, the tears that the Duke of Ding’s wife had been holding back came out again, for Yao’er to have such a loving husband was worth it even if she had suffered today.
When he returned to the bridal chamber, Song Si gently put Xiao Yao back on the bed, took off her wedding dress, covered her with the quilt and sat in front of the bed, looking into her eyes, with a happy smile on his face, “Husband and wife are one, you live and I live, you die and I die!”
Xiao Yao’s tears gushed out uncontrollably.
……
The Xiao family went back to the house.
The hearts of everyone in the government were heavy, and their feet were a few degrees heavier.
She looked at her only grandson and wanted to say that Xiao Qian should stay at home for the night, but then she thought of his health…
“Grandmother, I’m also tired today, so I’ll rest for the night in the mansion and go back tomorrow.”
The Duke of Ding’s wife was relieved and nodded, “Good then, grandmother will go and rest for a while first, and you can come and talk with grandmother in the evening.”
Xiao Qian agreed, and together with his own mother, he sent Madam Ding Guoguo back to her house, he sent his mother back to rest again, before he came to the study and sat down at the bottom of Duke Ding’s head, “Today’s situation, the emperor not only wants to destroy the Duke Ding’s house, but also wants brother-in-law’s life.”
The Duke of Ding Guo’s body shook.
Xiao Qian’s eyes, which normally carried a sickly look, were cold at the moment, “I saw that people from the Five Cities Military Division wanted to quietly shoot brother-in-law.”
Duke Ding Guo was shocked and almost stood up.
Today they were all focused on Xiao Yao and were so intent on rescuing him that they didn’t pay attention to the rest of the scene.
Bang!
Xiao Zheng slammed his fist on the table with a fierce blow.
“Just ……”
Thinking about what he saw, Xiao Qian wrinkled his brows, the sight of two arrows falling softly to the ground had been echoing in his mind all day, at that distance, even an arrow shot by an ordinary citizen would have hit his brother-in-law, let alone someone from the Five Cities Military Division.
“What?”
Duke Ding asked in a deep voice.
Xiao Qian told what happened at that time.
After listening, Duke Ding also wrinkled his eyebrows, “Can it be that someone is secretly protecting Si’er?
Xiao Qian shook his head.
“I was in a hurry to get close, and even if I struck the arrow in that situation, it would only deflect it instead of landing softly on the ground.”
Silence fell in the study.
……
The Xu family also returned to the house.
The women went back to their respective homes to rest, and Xu Er-sheng and Xu Yan followed them to the old gentleman’s room. After drinking a cup of tea Xu Er-sheng spoke deliberately, “Today’s series of events are too coincidental, I always feel that they are targeting the Ding Guo Gongfu.”
The old gentleman stroked his beard and pondered for a long time, “Perhaps it’s not just the Ding Guo Gongfu.”
Mr. Xu Er and Xu Yan looked at him.
The old gentleman also looked at them, “There is also Song Si.”
The two men’s faces turned pale.
……
Song Wan Yue sat at the table, her arms around her chest, squinting at the porcelain bottle on the table, the stopper was open, a few inaudible light fragrances wafted out from it, such a good golden sore medicine, I’m afraid none of the pharmacies in the capital sold it, she could be sure it was Xiao Qian’s, thinking of the pulse she had taken for Xiao Qian at the Thousand Hills Temple –
She reached out to put the stopper back on the bottle and tucked the porcelain bottle into her arms.
……
At midnight, the mansion fell into a deep sleep.
Song Wangyue, dressed in black, came out of the house, did not go through the main door, but went straight to the wall and jumped on it, heading straight for the Ding Guo Gong Mansion.
The two red lanterns hanging above the gate swayed back and forth as the cold wind blew.
Song Wangyue had been to the Ding Guo Mansion many times before, so she went to the back door and leapt up the wall silently, her small body lying on the wall, identifying the direction and swept towards Xiao Qian’s courtyard, which Xiao Yao had once told her about.
The Ding Guo Mansion was also silent, not even a single person was on night patrol.
Song Wangyue reached Xiao Qian’s courtyard without any obstruction and was about to leap in when a long sword with a cold light came at her.
At the same time, Xiao Qian inside the house also opened his eyes and leapt up.
