Chapter Thirteen Sixteen
However, being monitored by a dog is better than being monitored by someone.
At least the dog wouldn't tell the story of him hiding in the Song family while dressed as a woman!
This...what is this?
Sitting in the carriage, Chen Yue himself didn't even notice how distorted his facial features were!
After Lu Zhan reported, he nodded to Song Jin, and then disappeared.
Song Jin was not interested in the whispers between the master and servant. Seeing that the words were finished, the group set off to go home.
When they arrived at Song's house, before Song Jin could turn over and get off the horse, a servant came and reported.
"Young Master, Mr. Zhao is here, waiting for you in the study in the outer courtyard."
Mr. Zhao, the legitimate son of the prefect Zhao, Zhao Ke.
Why is it coming again?
Song Jin dismounted and said to her 1.8-meter-old wife, "You go back first, I'll go see a friend, you can have lunch first, don't wait for me, what do you want to eat, let Wanxi go and give instructions, or directly instruct Uncle Han Bai."
There was Lu Zhan in front of Chen Yue, who came in as a dowry maid that day.
Now that I don’t wear female makeup, it is naturally difficult to show up.
And there was no little maid in Song Jin's yard.
Now, everyone is talking about the maid waiting for the eldest young lady to go and choose.
The 1.8-meter-old grandmother nodded with a reserved look on her face and left with a small step.
Looking at the strange little step, Song Jin couldn't help but grin.
However, in the eyes of others, this smile is the eldest young master's sincere love for the eldest young master.
From the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the expression of the man on one side, and Song Jin was so shocked that he shivered and rushed straight to the study.
When she entered, Zhao Kezheng stood in the local area with his hands behind his back, looking up at the paintings on the front wall of the study.
It was a landscape painting.
But when Zhao Ke looked at it, he always felt that he could see the shadow of pavilions and jade in the landscape pictures.
I clearly saw it, but in the blink of an eye, I couldn't see anything.
It's really amazing.
Just as he heard the sound of pushing the door, Zhao Ke turned around and clasped his fists at Song Jin, "Brother Song, I am unforgettable."
Song Jin...
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that what he was talking about Sun Qiyao.
He hurriedly bowed with his fists and replied with a smile: "Brother Zhao, I should have said this long ago. This matter is all my fault, and it has delayed the good things of Brother Zhao and Miss Sun."
Zhao Ke stepped forward, helped Song Jin for a moment, pointed to the gift on the side and said, "Yao'er agreed to my pursuit. Her mother has already made an appointment with Mrs. Sun for tea. I think she can make a marriage in just a few days. These are my thank-you gifts to Brother Song."
There is no restraint of joy in words.
Zhao Ke loves Sun Qiyao, he really loves it to the core.
The Sun family is just an ordinary family, neither rich nor noble.
As the prefect's wife, Zhao Ke's mother was able to treat the Sun family like this, which shows that she loved this daughter-in-law.
I didn't expect that becoming a relative would benefit others.
Knowing that Zhao Ke was sincerely grateful, Song Jin did not refuse.
Thinking about the matter of throwing the body that day, Song Jin talked a few words and said unintentionally: "I got married yesterday. Lord Zhao was able to come in person. My father said that he asked me to come back to thank him. I wonder if Lord Zhao is busy recently?"
Zhao Ke sighed, "Don't mention it. I saw that the end of the year has been harmonious these days. This morning, I sent a document to ask my father to count the local girl of the local Nian Fang in Yuzhou."
Song Jin...
What?
Seeing Song Jin's shocked look, Zhao Ke smiled bitterly.
"My father was really shocked when he received this document just now. What do you think is this? Even if it is for the palace talent show, it should not be like this. Every year, the palace talent show is only sent to the local area to a specified number of girls, but it is not the designated sixteen years old."
"Then the official document did not explain the reason?"
Zhao Ke shook his head.
"The official document from above can not explain the reason, but it has given a rigid requirement. One must not be missed. If there are any number of errors, it will be severely punished."
Song Jin sighed, "It seems that this is a big deal. Should we only investigate Yuzhou, or should we also investigate it elsewhere?"
"All parts of the country are checking, and all girls who are over 16 years old are checking for girls who are fifteen, and those who are seventeen, only those who are sixteen, and…"
After pausing, Zhao Ke smiled bitterly at Song Jin, "Guess what? Even if you are already married or die, as long as you calculate, you will be counted as long as you get 16 this year."
Song Jin...
The two of them talked for a while, and Zhao Ke said goodbye.
As soon as Zhao Ke left, Song Jin fell into deep thought.
Seeing the end of the year, the court will not be bored and make such a big deal.
A nationwide search for women over 16 shows that there must be a 16-year-old woman with a special status among the people.
Thinking of this, Song Jin couldn't help looking down at his chest.
She's sixteen this year!
She is just a girl!
Moreover, her father was very afraid that her woman's identity would be exposed.
Could it be that...she is the person she is looking for in the official document?
Thinking of this, Song Jin suddenly felt a little nervous.
If you travel through time, it would be a big deal.
Grasping the teacup at hand, Song Jin took a sip and suppressed his shock. When he raised his hand, the jade pendant that was originally hidden in his sleeve fell out.
With a bang, it hit the ground.
Song Jin frowned and bent down to pick it up.
The jade pendant is strong and has no cracks at all, but the patterns on the jade pendant look so familiar.
I always feel like I've seen it somewhere.
There must be such patterns in the original owner's memory, but Song Jin doesn't remember much about it.
The appearance of the jade pendant interrupted her speculation about the sixteen-year-old girl.
Holding his cheek with one hand and holding the jade pendant with the other, Song Jin was trying his best to evoke his memory when suddenly a low cry came from outside the door.
"Master~"
The trembling voice is like calling a soul.
Song Jin turned around and saw Wanxi's little head slid into the crack of the door. Seeing her looking over, Wanxi waved to her with a look of a great enemy.
"Master, come out quickly."
Still a low voice.
Song Jin happily put away his jade pendant and raised his foot to him.
With a creaking sound, he opened the study door and before he could speak, he saw a big black dog squatting in the yard of her study.
The big black dog was originally in a squatting position. When he saw Song Jin coming out, he immediately stood up, shook his head and tail, and used all his strength to please Song Jin.
That look as if Song Jin had the flesh and bones he was thinking about in his hand.
Song Jin...
He looked at the big black dog in shock, sucked his eyes, and asked Wanxi without squinting, "What's going on?"
Wan Xi stood behind Song Jin, "I don't know. As soon as the little one came in, it was there. When he saw the little one, he would not shout. The little one would come to inform you quickly."
After pausing, Wanxi glanced at the big black dog and said, "Master, the little one really feels that it seems to be in love with you!"
While the two of them were talking, the big black dog was moving towards Song Jin little by little in his strange posture.
Chapter completed!
