Fast time travel: The little ancestor was pinched by the villain's waist and spoiled

Chapter 218 The Redemption of the Black Number One Scholar 10
I have to say that Song Huaishu's words really woke him up.

Pei's industries are spread almost all over the country, and the annual after-tax income alone is an immeasurable huge amount of money.

The Pei family has been in business for generations, and their ancestors have almost never interacted with the imperial court. If they are targeted by their group of hungry wolves, the Pei family will definitely not be able to live in peace anymore!
Pei Bingren was worried for almost half the night, but finally decided to do what Song Huaishu said.

At dawn, he left the Pei Mansion early and went to the major granaries to check the inventory.

When he learned that Pei Bingren was leaving for a few days, Pei Yi pretended to be sad and insisted on sticking to Song Huaishu.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she took advantage of him in various ways, and every time she took advantage, she stared at him with innocent eyes.

Although Song Huaishu felt weird, he couldn't say anything to refuse or rebuke.

Gradually, he had no reaction at all and was at the mercy of Pei Yi like a puppet.

In the next few days, Huo Yulin came to Pei Mansion twice more.

Without exception, Princess Fanchang also came.

Every time she came, she would look straight at Song Huaishu. When she saw Pei Yi getting close to him, her face instantly turned darker than the bottom of a pot!
Princess Fanchang showed her kindness to Song Huaishu more than once, but was coldly rejected by him.

The more frustrated Princess Fanchang was, the more she couldn't stop, and even made trouble in front of the emperor and empress.

Threatened to marry Song Huaishu!

The emperor had heard this name from Huo Yulin several times before.

Seeing that his only daughter liked him so much, he became completely interested in Song Huaishu.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the eunuch beside the emperor personally sent an invitation, inviting Pei Yi and Song Huaishu to the palace for a banquet.

When he received the invitation, Song Huaishu reacted very calmly, rewarded the chief eunuch calmly, and sent him away from the Pei Mansion without asking anything.

Yuanyangzi looked at the name on the invitation carefully, and his eyes were so excited that his eyes widened!

"Oh my God, the eldest lady, Mr. Huaishu, the emperor actually sent his eunuch to deliver invitations to the house!"

"Our family has kept a low profile for generations, and no one has ever entered the palace for a banquet!"

Compared with her excitement, Pei Yi and Song Huaishu could barely express their disapproval on their faces.

Song Huaishu clenched his fists tightly, and his delicate and handsome face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost. His expression was dignified, revealing a frightening and severe look.

Pei Yi blinked and pretended to be ignorant and said innocently: "Brother Huaishu, can we really go to the palace?"

Before Song Huaishu could reply to her, she smiled to herself and said, "I heard that the palace is very beautiful. There are all kinds of delicious food and fun things!"

"I don't know which one is more beautiful than our house."

Hearing her innocent voice, Song Huaishu's tightly knitted brows suddenly relaxed, and the frost that had covered his face for so long seemed to be swept away.

He looked down at Pei Yi and said seriously: "The palace is not good at all. It is just a huge birdcage. The people locked in it can only be freed by death."

Pei Yi and Yuanyang looked at each other, their faces instantly turned pale, and they both showed fear.

Song Huaishu's eyes softened a lot, and he raised his hand to touch Pei Yi's soft cheek.

He said softly: "Yi'er, it's enough for me to go to this banquet alone. You just stay at home and wait for me to come back."

He knew that the person the emperor really wanted to see was him, and there was no need to take risks with Pei Yi.

The palace is full of dangers, and there is no guarantee whether Huo Jinyi will attack Pei Yi.

Because of Song Huaishu's previous words, Pei Yi was entangled. After hesitating for a long time, he finally nodded lightly.

She reached out and hugged his waist, and said softly: "Brother Huaishu, you must come back safely!"

She seems to have regarded the palace as a very scary place.

Song Huaishu quietly raised a satisfied smile, nodded gently and said, "Don't worry Yi'er, brother will definitely return home safely."

After all, he had been the prime minister for two generations, and he was already an old acquaintance with the emperor.

He knew the emperor's character very well and already had a plan in mind.In the evening of the next day, Song Huaishu got on the carriage to the palace alone.

He said warmly to the eunuch sitting opposite: "I'm sorry, my sister suddenly caught a cold and can't attend the banquet. I also ask my father-in-law to explain the reason to Your Majesty."

The eldest eunuch nodded understandingly and agreed with a smile.

Anyway, the person the emperor really wanted to see was Song Huaishu, and it didn't really matter whether Pei Yi went or not.

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was still organized by the Queen herself. The scene was visibly luxurious. There were even several pure gold osmanthus trees, so golden that they caught everyone's attention.

Song Huaishu was a new face, and he was personally summoned by the emperor as soon as he arrived. Almost everyone was interested in him.

In less than half an hour, the people who came to the banquet had already found out his identity.

When he learned that he was just the adopted son of the richest man, he felt disdainful and at the same time became curious about him.

Why could the emperor personally summon the adopted son of a mere merchant?

Everyone was confused. When the banquet was about to begin, someone finally couldn't restrain their curiosity and sent someone to approach Song Huaishu.

Song Huaishu immediately suppressed his chill and looked at the handsome young man walking towards him.

If I remember correctly, it seems to be Huo Daochuan, the young prince of Zhennan Palace, who is sixteen years old.

King Zhennan is the emperor's younger brother. He guards southern Xinjiang all year round. Only his only son lives in the capital.

Huo Daochuan was usually a playboy, and his reputation was no less than that of Princess Fanchang, but he was not really a playboy, he just deliberately hid his clumsiness in order to deceive the emperor.

Seeing him gradually approaching, Song Huaishu raised his wine glass and saluted: "Song Huaishu, a common man, has met His Royal Highness."

"Yo, you know me?"

Huo Daochuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him casually: "You look good, are you really just doing business in your family?"

Song Huaishu lowered his eyebrows and replied: "Exactly."

"Tsk, why are you talking like an old man at such a young age?"

Huo Daochuan was completely interested in Song Huaishu. He walked to the seat next to him, squeezed the original owner away, and sat down.

He put his elbow on the table, raised his eyelids, and said casually with a casual attitude: "I heard that you were brought into the palace personally by the eunuch beside the emperor?"

Without Huo Daochuan's permission, Song Huaishu stood still and responded softly: "Exactly."

Song Huaishu's expression remained unchanged, and his unsmiling face showed a calm and unhurried feeling.

The more Huo Daochuan looked at it, the more he liked it, and he kept talking to him.

He made no secret of the curious look in his eyes, chatting like a household registration check, and soon asked for all the information about Song Huaishu.

Song Huaishu didn't dislike Huo Daochuan, and even admired him a little.

It's a pity that he chose the fifth prince in his previous two lives, so he couldn't have close friendship with others.

Huo Daochuan in this life was one of the few royal members he wanted to know.

Thinking of this, Song Huaishu was no longer as indifferent as before and started talking to him seriously.

After about a cup of tea, the emperor finally led a group of concubines to the scene.

Before entering, the emperor summoned Song Huaishu alone.

Adhering to the principle of concealing clumsiness, Song Huaishu's performance was slightly dull. Except for his handsome face that attracted attention even before he opened his eyes, there was almost no other redeeming feature.

The emperor lost interest in him and stopped looking at him throughout the banquet.

Until the arrival of Princess Fanchang attracted everyone's attention.
