Wu Shengchang sought an audience
Since Song Lingyu refused this marriage, he originally wanted to retreat and seek the next best thing, marrying Song Lingluo. However, when he saw Song Lingluo's face, he immediately gave up on this idea.
Song Lingyu's request is actually easy to fulfill. After all, if he can successfully ascend to the throne in the future, why would he be afraid of her, a small and insignificant woman? So today, he agreed to Song Lingyu's request. In order to borrow someone's power to marry someone's daughter in the future, he first told Song Lingyu, so as to prevent her from causing any absurd trouble later on.
But he didn't expect that Song Lingyu would not fall for his trick: "Fifth Prince, it seems you haven't understood what I said. I'm talking about a pair of people. The ones you call 'actors', aren't they human too? If you want to lie, why not find a more perfect lie?"
Lian Zhenyan slightly furrowed his brow, he didn't understand why Song Lingyu insisted so much. Isn't it enough for a woman to be the legitimate wife and have her husband's love? Why would she care about other concubines?
"If the Fifth Prince has nothing else to say, I'll take my leave first." Song Lingyu said, and immediately turned around to walk away. Lian Zhiyan turned around and grabbed Song Lingyu's wrist. Song Lingyu turned back, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, "Fifth Prince, in such a public place, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to ruin my reputation and force me into the manor?"
Lian Ziyu seemed to have realized his own loss of composure and immediately let go of her hand. He took out a token from his bosom and handed it to Song Lingyu: "When you see the token, it's as if you've seen me. If one day you come to your senses, you can come to my mansion at any time."
Song Lingyu took the token handed over by Lian Ziyen, the material of the token was extremely heavy, holding it in her hand gave a kind of sinking feeling, on top of which was written a big five-character phrase. Such good things shouldn't be wasted. "I've taken the thing, I'll take my leave."
This time, Lian Zhiyan didn't stop Song Lingyu. He kept watching her back until she disappeared into the crowd. He thought that since she had accepted his token, she would at least consider it. What he didn't expect was that not only did Song Lingyu not consider it, but also used this token to frame him in the days to come. Of course, this is a later story.
Song Lingyu returned to the mansion and gave the token to Zhi Lan, asking her to make another one that was exactly the same, with the best materials being the same as well.
Zhilan took orders and secretly had someone make it.
Song Lingyu leaned back in her rocking chair, now facing off against Song Linglong rather than Lian Ciyu!
At the same time, in the Fifth Prince's residence, a servant came over to report that someone outside the gate was asking to see him.
Lian Meiyan was puzzled, could it be that Song Lingyu had arrived so quickly? No, if it were really Song Lingyu, he should have been brought in directly. He asked: "Who is it?"
He is Lou Mansion's illegitimate son, Lou Shengchang.
Lian Ziyu furrowed his brow, he had never had any dealings with Lou Shengchang before, so how could he come back to see him? But the stranger the thing was, the more he wanted to figure it out: "Let him in."
Luo Shengchang was soon brought in. As soon as Luo Shengchang entered, he knelt on the ground: "Greetings to the Fifth Prince."
Lian Zhenyan looked at him and asked: "What brings you here this time?"
"I know the Fifth Prince wants to seize the throne, I want to come and help you."
Lian Meiyan listened and smiled slightly, without concealing her thoughts: "So many people want that chair, why did you choose me?"
