Chapter 143 Strong Rival
Song Qingya was only fourteen years old after the Chinese New Year, and she still had a year to go before the ceremony of coming of age. However, since the Song family members were generally tall, Song Qingya was no exception, so she looked tall and graceful.

Her beauty is like the first ray of sunshine in the morning, warm and gentle; and like the flowers blooming in spring, delicate and beautiful. Her every frown and smile is full of youthful vitality and vigor, which makes people fall in love with her.

She had her hair neatly combed into a girl's bun, without many hair accessories, and none of them were particularly exquisite.

But she had a piece of black jade for men hanging around her waist. The jade was warm and smooth, and it was obvious that it was very precious. The most special thing about the jade was its peculiar pattern.

That was the jade pendant given by the old prince when his son was born. It symbolized the identity of a man from the Chu family. Princess Chu would never make a mistake.

However, this jade pendant was suddenly lost not long after her son got into trouble. When asked, he refused to reveal where it was and told her not to look for it. This made the Princess of Chu think that her son wanted to abandon his status as the Crown Prince and therefore did not want even the jade pendant.

Who would have thought that he was the one who gave the jade pendant to the beautiful woman? Or was there another reason?

The Princess of Chu really wanted to go up to Song Qingya and ask her clearly, but then she thought it was not a good idea. She should wait and see first, otherwise she would alert the enemy and end up making things worse.

So she just nodded to the Song family, turned around and left with her sister.

It was not until those people walked away that Song Qingya raised her eyes and looked over. That impetuous noble lady must be the man's mother, right?
They look a bit alike, and their tempers seem similar. Although the Chu Palace is a king of a different surname, it has a large army under its command, so it should be very strong, right? I heard from my father that he is still a royalist.

Should I be able to help my sister a little?
In short, it's his house. No matter if it works or not, she has to try her best to fight for it. After all, that man gave her the chance. Song Qingya tightened the jade pendant around her waist.

This was the first time she wore it out, and she didn't expect that by such a coincidence, she would meet someone related to the original owner.

“That’s the Princess of Chu, and her sister, Madam Zhang, the mother of Dali Temple Minister Zhang Zhiyi.

The eldest lady has an old relationship with Master Zhang, so I guess it was Madam Zhang who asked the princess for help. "Xiuniang was well-informed, and after meeting Guan Song Qingwan, she especially learned from Xie Qingcheng about the network of the powerful people in the capital.

Naturally, she knew a lot of people, but she had no idea that the Princess of Chu was actually coming for Miss Song San.

"Just respect that noble person, and go back and mention it to Wanwan so that she can repay the favor in the future. We can't have the contact with that noble person." After all, her husband is only a fifth-rank official now.

Moreover, it would be even more difficult to get promoted further. For a long time in the future, the Song family would have to operate in the circle of officials below the fourth or fifth rank.

Of course, there was no certainty as to Song Qingwan's situation, so Song Niang let her take her own course and did not force her.

"That's right. Now that the nobles have left, Madam can go and burn incense."

"Let's go, Xiaoqi, this little troublemaker has caused us so much trouble. You need to grow up quickly so that you can repay these uncles who protect you.

By the way, Le Fei, you should take the injured guards to treat their injuries. If they are too serious, go down the mountain to find a doctor in advance. Go to Renxin Medical Clinic. Doctor Luo has made some achievements in surgery and is very good at treating external injuries. "

Song Niang was not used to being protected by someone at the risk of her life. Seeing someone getting hurt made her feel a little guilty and she wanted to repay the favor.

This is actually somewhat similar to Song Qingwan's idea, which is not to say that everyone is equal, but to respect life.

"Okay, ma'am, go and worship the Buddha without worry. I'll have someone who's not injured follow you, so don't worry about your safety."

The people from the Song family only suffered minor injuries, but the situation for the eldest princess was not certain.

If they were to go to another place or have their older daughter take over, it’s hard to say whether these people would be able to go back.

But today, the provocation of the eldest princess would definitely not remain indifferent. However, what Le Fei and the others did not know was that the place where the eldest princess was was almost full of spies.

News of Song Niang's earlier encounter with the Fang couple at the gate of Lingtai Temple soon reached the ears of the eldest princess as she was on her way down the mountain.

"Oh? Go check who the Fang family is and what their relationship is with the Song family."

The eldest princess immediately gave the order to investigate the Fang family. After all, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so there was no harm in using the Fang family.

Song Qingwan ruined their plans as soon as she appeared. She lost the Huang Escort Agency and the business outside the Great Wall. She spent a lot of money and entered the family temple to get rid of the northern Great Wall disaster case. She harmed her granddaughter, and now, she destroyed the cloth workshop and cloth store that she was about to get.

I heard that she even got a coal to replace the silver charcoal she had stored. What was she trying to do by contacting the two cloth shops? Was she trying to steal her business of keeping warm again?

It has been many years since she suffered such a serious injury. How could the princess not hate Song Qingwan and the Song family?

Obviously, she was about to succeed, but she was suddenly cut into by a wild girl, which made her business chain shaken. If it continues like this, the foundation will be shaken and the whole thing may collapse.

Because even if she was not afraid of Song Qingwan, she still had to be wary of her good nephew Li Minghe.

"Let's go to the old place." She wanted to find someone to discuss countermeasures, so the princess asked the servants to turn the carriage around.

Song Qingwan had no idea what had happened in Lingtai Temple. She was completely focused on the precision factory until the evening, when Xiaowu started complaining non-stop.

It seems that I have really offended the princess. Is she going to sit and wait for death? Song Qingwan is not such a person.

"Dad, what do you think the princess needs so much money for? She was born into a noble family, so she shouldn't be short of money. Why would she take such a risk and do whatever it takes to earn it?"

Song Qingwan didn't know the eldest princess, so she couldn't figure out this problem.

When money accumulates to a certain amount, it becomes just a number, a useless thing that can no longer solve big problems and is no longer of much use.

Song Qingwan has not reached that level yet, so she needs to work hard, and what she is working on are all brand new technologies, which can be said to be bringing advancement and services to this era, which is of great significance.

But the eldest princess is purely trying to make money and is willing to harm others. Isn't she afraid of being overturned and becoming the target of public criticism?

Song Qingwan didn't believe that there was no purpose behind this.

Father Song thought for a moment and told the news about the eldest princess, "The old woman's mother was a palace maid. I think she was bullied badly when she was young or she went crazy because of poverty.

She has the best relationship with His Majesty and the brothers of Prince Huaiqi. She helped His Majesty ascend the throne in the past, and she has been generous to His Majesty over the years, so she has been honored and favored for many years. "

But she should never touch his wife and children. Father Song was angry and started cursing, while thinking in his mind how to deal with the eldest princess.

"Your Majesty, is it enough to have money? The eldest princess is clearly undermining the foundation of the Li Dynasty?" It is not surprising that someone who dares to rob even disaster relief silver has done even more outrageous and evil things in private.

"Who knows? Anyway, royal affairs are complicated. Wanwan, you have to be careful and don't fall into the trap of that old witch."

It has to be said that the eldest princess is a very strong opponent.
