Chapter 294 Stabilizing the Situation
Song Chengfeng and Lan Tingting were caught off guard by Song Changwei's counterattack and were stunned where they stood.
The people around finally understood what was going on. It seemed that Prime Minister Song deliberately used this woman to frame Song Changwei. He was truly despicable!
"Mr. Song is young and promising, and Prime Minister Song has little power in the court now, so it is understandable that he would be jealous."
"That's right. Since both of them have the surname Song, there must be something we don't know about this, right?"
"This woman doesn't look like an ordinary person. She wears such gorgeous clothes and does such a thing. I wonder what her relationship with Prime Minister Song is?"
After all, Lan Tingting was a woman living in the inner chambers. When she heard people around her talking about her clothes and identity, she became a little upset and hurriedly grabbed Song Chengfeng's clothes to ask him for help.
"Master, look..."
The call of "Master" directly exposed the relationship between the two people, and the people suddenly realized that these two people had this kind of relationship!
Then the woman on the ground must be Prime Minister Song's concubine. It is really shameful to use his concubine to do such a thing.
Song Chengfeng kicked Lan Tingting angrily, saying that he was not capable of accomplishing anything and was always causing trouble.
Song Changwei kept a calm expression on his face from beginning to end, and was not disrupted by Song Chengfeng at all, which showed his average psychological quality.
In the end, Song Chengfeng couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward, grabbed Lan Tingting's clothes, and fled back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a panic.
The people around burst into laughter. It seemed that Prime Minister Song would be embarrassed to go out in the near future.
"Go away, everyone!" Song Changwei said calmly.
After dismissing the people around him, Song Changwei began to walk slowly towards his home.
In a restaurant not far away, the window of a private room on the second floor was open and two women were looking over here.
After the excitement died down, Jin Xin closed the window and spoke angrily to the people in the room.
"Princess, don't you think the Prime Minister is going too far? He actually framed a junior like this!"
"Let him be. He won't be the prime minister for many more days."
"Princess, do you mean to dismiss him from his post and investigate him?"
"Otherwise, what else does Jin Xin think such a person can do with the position of Prime Minister?"
"Could the princess let Song Changwei directly replace Song Chengfeng?" Jin Xin was a little incredulous.
No matter how talented Song Changwei is, he is just a young man. How can he take on such a big responsibility?
The eldest princess folded her folding fan and tapped Jinxin on the head, pretending to be angry.
"What are you thinking, girl? Is it so easy to be the prime minister? I will make the decision on this person."
After saying that, the princess sat back in her seat, picked up the teacup on the table, held it in front of her eyes and looked at it carefully, her expression still nonchalant.
Seeing that the princess didn't want to talk anymore, Jin Xin tactfully shut her mouth.
Today, the princess wanted to come out and check on the people's sentiments, but she didn't expect to encounter such a commotion.
Song Changwei is truly a talented person, and it is well worth it that the princess promoted him.
Princess Huai also has a good vision. She was able to recognize a talent and promote Song Changwei.
At this moment, Jin Xin's admiration for Song Qingwan had reached the point of prostrating herself.
In the past, I only knew that Princess Huai had superb medical skills and could cure difficult and complicated diseases, but I didn’t expect that her wisdom should not be underestimated!
Chunya naturally heard about the hustle and bustle on the street. She returned to the palace and told Song Qingwan the rumors she had heard in vivid detail, and even gloated at the end.
"Prime Minister Song really lost more than he gained. How dare he embarrass Master Song again?"
"It seems that the Song family really doesn't need us to take action anymore. Song Changwei alone has put them in a state of disarray."
"So what are your plans next, Miss? Are you going to continue to deal with the Zhong family?"
Song Qingwan shook her head. What else can the Zhong family do now? Tuoba Jun alone can drag them to death.
What really made Song Qingwan curious was that at this time, there was no movement in Prince Yu's Mansion.
It has been nearly a month since the emperor passed away, and the eldest princess should be ascending the throne soon. Has Prince Yu given up?
Based on Song Qingwan's understanding of Prince Yu, it seems unlikely...
After much thought, Song Qingwan decided to find out about the situation in Prince Yu's Mansion, so she immediately wrote a letter to Luo Qingqing, asking him what Prince Yu was doing recently.
Not long after the letter was sent, an unexpected guest came to Prince Huai's mansion.
When Song Qingwan heard the frightening report, she hurried out to greet them, only to see Zhong Xuejiao standing at the door with a smile on her face.
"Miss Zhong, why are you here?"
"Luo Qingqing didn't receive the letter. I intercepted it."
"I see."
"I didn't mean to peek at your letter. It was the carrier pigeon that lost its way and jumped onto my windowsill. Xiaoxiao saw it and put the letter away."
As Zhong Xuejiao spoke, she took out the letter from her bosom and handed it to Song Qingwan, who took it gratefully.
This matter is Song Qingwan's fault. She should be more careful in the future and not let me send pigeons to send letters casually.
No matter how smart this carrier pigeon is, it is just an animal and it can make mistakes sometimes. Fortunately, it was picked up by Zhong Xuejiao this time. If it had flown to Prince Yu's room, Luo Qingqing would have been in danger.
"This time, it's all thanks to Sister Zhong. Please accept Qing Wan's greetings."
After Song Qingwan finished speaking, she bowed slightly to Zhong Xuejiao, who quickly stepped forward to help her up.
"Why should we be so polite? Qingqing has helped me a lot in the mansion, so I should do this."
"Let's go in and talk."
Song Qingwan held Zhong Xuejiao's hand, then signaled with her eyes to Arong to close the door. Arong nodded and did so immediately.
There are so many people around, so it’s better not to let others know that Zhong Xuejiao is good friends with her.
The two of them walked into Song Qingwan's room and started talking about business.
"I wonder if Sister Zhong came here today to inquire about the new emperor's accession to the throne?"
"You guessed it right. That's what I came here to ask. Is it really the eldest princess who is going to ascend the throne?"
Song Qingwan nodded, and Zhong Xuejiao had an expression that said "as expected".
In fact, she had already guessed it. Zhong Xuejiao was very smart, and based on the few words she had heard from Prince Yu during this period, she guessed that the person Prince Huai's Mansion wanted to support was the eldest princess.
This should be the first time in the hundred-year history of the Great Saint Dynasty that a woman has ascended the throne and become an emperor, right? Although Zhong Xuejiao felt a little unbelievable, she still supported it psychologically.
"Will all those old ministers agree? Those old stubborn people are used to men being the supreme rulers. How can they agree to the eldest princess being the monarch of this holy dynasty?"
"There are some things that they cannot afford to disagree with."
Since ancient times, whoever controls the military power controls the world. All the military forces of the Great Sage Dynasty are controlled by the Huai Wang Mansion. The Huai Wang Mansion can naturally support whoever it wants to support.
As for Prince Yu and his people, they were just clowns jumping around, and Song Qingwan didn't take them seriously at all.
