Chapter 341 Rejection of Marriage
Song Xi raised his eyes and glanced, and his gentle handsome face was already as cold as frost.
The atmosphere in the main hall was strangely stagnant for a moment, and the competition and undercurrent between the two sides was surging under the calm.
"Commander Liang seems to have a high opinion of himself, and he also has many misunderstandings about the purpose of this jade pendant. My father never made any marriage arrangements for me when he was alive, and even Commander Liang's name is rarely mentioned."
"The marriage between my wife and I was solemnly held with the approval of my parents and the blessings of all my family members. The Song family's family heirloom jade pendant is now worn on my wife. Any other tokens have no role in betrothal."
The man's tone was very calm and indifferent, but the sarcasm in his words was hard to resist.
Liang Ji's confidence and arrogance were instantly shattered, and in anger he ignored the shock and doubt in his heart.
"Is my nephew trying to renege on the contract? How can I restore the reputation of my family's Huixin? All the powerful people in Anton know that she has been engaged for a long time. The Song family is trying to force her to commit suicide?!"
The damn wolf cub actually dared to reject the marriage in public, and even rejected his long-term friendship with Song Haocang!
Even if he doesn't recognize this marriage, he has to compensate. A batch of high-yielding grains and mysterious weapons must be sent to the Liang family!
Liang Huixin, with tears in her eyelashes, pretended to be sad and "persuaded": "Dad, please stop blaming Brother Song. It's all because of the daughter's misfortune. As long as Brother Song can live a happy life, even if her daughter
I rushed to hell immediately without any reluctance or complaint in my heart."
After that, he raised his pitiful little face and looked at the man on the throne with admiration.
"Brother Song, please don't quarrel with my father. You are both the people Huixin cares about most. The two families still have a friendship that shares weal and woe. Huixin hopes that you can all get along well, just like Uncle Song and my father are so close.
Harmony. After returning home, I went to my family temple to get my hair ordained and practice spiritual practice, praying for my father and brother Song to have a safe and happy life."
What is so good about that bitch of the Yu family? Is it worthy of Song Xi to refute the Liang family’s face like this?
Liang Hui was furious and secretly resentful, but she still maintained a generous and decent appearance.
No matter what, she couldn't lose her due dignity, she didn't believe that Song Xi could really refuse the temptation that came to her door!
Cheng Feihu, who had been watching for a long time, couldn't stand it anymore. He took out his pocket and took out an identical jade pendant.
"Brother Xi, I'm not lying to you. I also have a jade pendant like this! Master once said that when you encounter difficulties or dangers outside, you can use the jade pendant to ask the Song family for help. This thing is just a voucher. The Song family once asked the outside world for help.
There have been many scattered around, and many old friends have one in their hands, so it’s nothing too special.”
Xu Yongnian also took out a jade pendant from his arms to prove it, and his handsome face could not hide the sarcasm.
"I have grown up next to my adoptive father since I was a child. I have seen countless similar tokens. This is the first time I have encountered someone like Commander Liang who fabricated a marriage. Today is really an eye-opener!"
When Song's father was young, he was generous and outspoken, and had a wide circle of friends. He made many close friends on the battlefield or in the rivers and lakes.
In order to maintain long-term contact with his friends, he specially ordered a batch of jade pendants to be made as tokens. These jade pendants were all engraved with the clan emblem of the Song family. The styles and shapes were basically the same. Whenever he met a friend who liked him, he would give them as tokens.
A token of contact.
If the holder of the jade pendant encounters difficulties or danger, he can take the jade pendant to the Marquis Mansion and his property for help. Even if Song's father is not at home, the servants who know the jade pendant will take the initiative to lend a helping hand and report the matter to the house.
's master.
When the Hou Mansion was in its heyday, it helped many friends who were in trouble. It was only after everyone was exterminated that there were so many old friends who helped each other.
Although he was unable to turn the tide in the end, the friendship and support he gained was unmatched by other courtiers.
Song Xi was able to successfully achieve his current status, in addition to his own efforts and the help of Yu Yalan, Song's father's old friends also provided strong assistance.
However, Song's father's old friends are a mixed bag, and it is not uncommon to find people as ungrateful and ulterior as Liang Ji. It's just that others don't have such greedy courage and plans, and they don't dare to plot against the powerful Song Xi.
.
The faces of Liang Ji and his daughter were gloomy, and they looked at the jade pendants in the hands of the two people opposite them in disbelief.
They originally thought this was some kind of unique token, but they didn't expect that this thing could be given away in "batch"?!
Liang Ji and Song's father could only be regarded as casual acquaintances. For more than ten years, they had almost no correspondence with each other. Naturally, they had no understanding of Song's father's behavior. Only now that they saw the same things did they remember the real situation back then.
Seventeen years ago, Liang Ji was just a small Qianhu, and his family was almost destroyed because he took the blame for Shangfeng's fault. Song Haocang, who was passing through Anton, accidentally learned of this, and out of a sense of justice, he extended a helping hand to help.
Bundle.
When he was young, Liang Ji was very grateful for this life-saving grace. When he learned that Song's father was from the Hou family, he wanted to make friends with him. Later, he tried his best to please Song's father and deceived this jade pendant from Song's father. Since then, he has been using Song's father's name as his gift.
Friends call themselves.
This superficial friendship brought huge benefits to the Liang family, and Liang Ji took advantage of it to rise rapidly in the Anton Army.
After he was promoted to the commander of the capital, he discovered that the emperor was afraid of the Song family, so he covered up this past and cut off contact with the Hou family.
Today, seventeen years later, he officially entered the Song family with his only legitimate daughter.
Complacently, he used the token to blackmail the benefactor's son, thinking that he could use his old tricks to gain some more benefits from the Song family.
But they didn't expect that everything was just a big dream, and the other party simply regarded them as a shameless joke!
Liang Ji became a little angry and wanted to immediately strike up the case and leave angrily!
But he can't act impulsively on the Song family's territory, and the important purpose of this trip has not yet been achieved.
In the end, I had to temporarily suppress my anger and embarrassment, barely stabilize my emotions, and change my words: "It seems that my uncle misunderstood, so just pretend that I didn't mention the engagement! Huixin doesn't have to risk his own life, as my father will definitely give it to you.
Find a good husband!"
Shamelessly turning over the conflict and embarrassment quickly, he couldn't help but make the most critical request.
"My dear nephew, I heard that you have several types of high-yielding grain seeds that can increase the yield per mu to tens of thousands of jins. The bitter cold in Andong lacks high-quality seeds, and the people are hungry all the year round. The people are in dire straits. My uncle wants to buy them from you.
I have a batch of grain seeds. I wonder if my dear nephew can help me?"
Song Xi and the three people present were a little surprised, and secretly sighed that Liang Ji was really capable of bending and stretching.
No wonder he has risen from a poor family to the high position he is today. His ability to adapt to the changing circumstances is truly unparalleled.
It's a pity that all the efforts were not used on the right path, and the Song family cannot tolerate such ambitious conspirators.
"This year's high-yield grain seeds have all been used for farming, and there is currently no inventory left. Commander Liang, why not wait in Beijing for a while, and wait until the harvest is good and then distribute a batch for you depending on the situation?"
Of course, this is just an excuse. The Song family actually has numerous high-yielding grain varieties.
However, the Song family was determined to win Anton, and they could only implement the next plan by detaining Liang Ji and his daughter.
