Chapter 253: Princess: This time I came with a knife
The main gate of the Song Mansion was wide open to welcome the distinguished guests.
A county magistrate is enough to make everyone in the mansion, young and old, kneel on the ground, let alone the fact that a county governor has come this time!
This is a fourth-rank official in the imperial court!
He was also the governor of Dongshan County, to which Ping'an County belonged, and had jurisdiction over the counterpart.
The Song family has no right to contact such an important figure. Even if they offer money to curry favor with him, he will ignore them.
But now, such a high-ranking official, and the magistrate of Ping'an County, actually came together to visit the Song Mansion?
The Song Mansion was in great glory, and Mrs. Song and the Song family welcomed them with the highest standard of hospitality.
The Song family even brought out an ancestral golden nanmu chair, placed it in the first seat, and invited the county magistrate to take a seat.
The county magistrate looked at the chair, then looked at the Song family members kneeling on the ground, and said:
"Only Madam Song, Madam Song, Master Song, the eldest daughter of the Song family, and Song Yanyi will be left. The rest of you should leave immediately."
Not every member of the Song family is qualified to stay here.
As soon as the county magistrate spoke, the Song family hurriedly did as they were told.
When only those who were named were left in the huge hall, the sheriff and the county magistrate suddenly turned around and bowed respectfully to one person.
The man originally followed behind the county governor and the county magistrate, and was not noticed much among the many followers.
Now looking at her carefully, I found that she was beautiful, with extraordinary temperament. The dark clothes with dark patterns looked inconspicuous at first glance, but in fact, both the texture and workmanship were extremely fine, highlighting her extraordinary status.
The county governor said: "Your Highness, please take a seat."
The Song family was shocked!
What? Your Highness? What Your Highness?
Zhou Chengxi nodded slightly, walked forward proudly, and sat upright on the noble golden nanmu chair.
Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess has come to inspect the Dongshan County area on the orders of the Empress.
The Song family was well-informed and had already learned the news through channels such as shops and branches in other places.
But what does this have to do with the Song family?
Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess would only go to big places like the provincial capital. A small place like Ping'an County is not even qualified to receive Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess.
Who would have thought that Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess would come to Ping'an County and the Song family together with the county magistrate!
The Song family was terrified!
Old Madam Song, Madam Song and others, who had just stood up, knelt down again.
"I bow to Her Majesty the Crown Princess! May Your Majesty live a thousand years, a thousand thousand years, and a thousand thousand years!"
Without the princess's order, they dared not raise their heads or stand up.
"All of you, get up. I came here this time because of a marriage matter." Zhou Chengxi went straight to the point.
With her identity and status, she doesn't need to explain anything to anyone except her mother and father.
Her words are commands, and she is heaven.
The Song family members stood up cautiously, all wondering what His Highness meant by "marriage".
At this time, Zhou Chengxi asked: "Who is Song Yanyi?"
Song Yan came out quickly, bowed and said, "Your Highness, I am a commoner."
Zhou Chengxi: "Look up."
Song Yan slowly raised his head, his eyes filled with fear and his heart filled with panic.
The highest-ranking official he had ever met in his life was the magistrate of Ping'an County.
As for the princess, that was something I dared not even think about.
But now the princess was sitting in front of him.
And let him look up.
To be honest, he felt more fear than honor.
Song Yan raised his head, but he didn't dare to look at the princess. He could only lower his eyes slightly in obedience.
When Zhou Chengxi saw Song Yanyi's appearance, he was stunned!
man!
A real man!!
How can there be such a good-looking real man!!!
This figure, this appearance, and this temperament are the most popular image of a handsome guy in her original world!
Zhou Chengxi remembered the information about Song Yanyi that the secret guard had given her: he had an ugly appearance, a rude personality, and was a well-known local family with difficulty in getting married.
After she found out, she even doubted Lu Yao's aesthetic taste for a while.
She is not attracted by the stunningly handsome Jiang Yulang, but has true love with the ugly Song Yanyi.
Zhou Chengxi originally thought that Lu Yao's aesthetic taste was somewhat distorted, but now he suddenly realized it.
It turns out that it was a misunderstanding caused by the aesthetic differences between the two worlds!
This is not ugly at all, it's simply a blessing!
Thinking about the appearance of his cousin Xie Jingran, Zhou Chengxi secretly pinched his thigh——
What kind of bran are you eating, fellow villager!
Unfortunately, no matter how handsome Song Yan is, Zhou Chengxi will not show mercy.
This time, she came with a knife.
"Song Yanyi, I heard that you recently found a marriage partner? The other party is Lu Yao from Shanyang Village, Ping'an County?"
"Your Highness, yes." For some reason, Song Yanyi suddenly had a very bad premonition.
"Hehe, it seems that I will have a younger brother in the future." Zhou Chengxi smiled.
Being the younger brother of the princess? The Song family was terrified.
"Did you know that Shanyang Village is the old house of my cousin's family?"
As soon as Zhou Chengxi said this, Song Yanyi immediately thought of Xie Jingran.
Although Xie Jingran's parents had passed away, they were able to be buried with great honor in their hometown because of the prominent family background of Doctor Xie.
Unexpectedly, it was related to Her Royal Highness's father's family.
It turns out that Xie Jingran is related to the royal family.
Xie Jingran is the Crown Princess’ cousin!
"My cousin has suffered many misfortunes in the past few years, and now he has returned to his hometown to mourn for his parents.
Both my father and I felt sorry for my cousin and could not bear to see him wasting his best years here.
For this reason, my father, the queen, issued an imperial decree to allow my cousin to marry Lu Yao, the man bestowed upon him by heaven.
Mr. Song, since you are also going to marry Miss Lu, you will be a family from now on.
From now on, you will become my younger brother, right?"
When Zhou Chengxi said this, Song Yan felt like he was struck by lightning!
Xie Jingran is going to marry Lu Yao?
Or was it an imperial decree issued by Queen Phoenix as a matchmaker?
With such an identity and such a relationship, if Xie Jingran married Lu Yao, he would definitely be the legal husband!
The Crown Princess came to the Song family not to discuss marriage, but to make a high-profile announcement: You, Song Yanyi, give up your position as the legal husband!
Song Yan felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand.
His mind was blank, and there was only a voice in his heart shouting: Why!
Why was he about to get married with Lu Yao, but Xie Jingran suddenly showed up and snatched his position as legal husband?
Why is his marriage always so unsuccessful!
Zhou Chengxi heard everything Song Yanyi said.
Although she felt a little sympathy for the handsome guy, she still chopped down with her knife for the sake of her cousin, for the future of her fellow villager, or to be more precise, for her own future.
Even have to keep chopping.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness! I am grateful to you forever!"
Unlike Song Yanyi who was stunned by the shock after hearing the words, Song Yanyi's mother, Mrs. Song, not only understood the meaning of those words instantly, but also knelt down to express her gratitude immediately.
The rest of the old lady Song, Mr. Song, and Song Yanyi's sister also knelt down to express their gratitude again.
"Your Highness, please don't kill my family."
How dare they claim to be related to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess?
That so-called younger brother is just because Xie Jingran married Lu Yao and became the elder one, and Song Yanyi became the younger one. So when Song Yan called Xie Jingran brother, he was his younger brother.
Xie Jingran is the princess's younger brother, and Song Yanyi is Xie Jingran's younger brother.
Brother’s younger brother is still a younger brother.
Therefore, Zhou Chengxi said politely that Song Yanyi would be her younger brother from now on.
Unfortunately, Lu Yao didn't know what happened here.
Otherwise, she would definitely jump up and exclaim in surprise: "Good fellow! This knife of mine has chopped my Yan Yi into a brother among brothers!"
