Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 894 Suspicion of Evil Spirits

"This proves that your son and she are not meant to be. She is determined to marry someone else, so why can't you let go?"

Song Lin was straightforward by nature, and upon hearing these words, he looked even more disgusted.

"Look at my Zhen'er. When she met that shameless bastard Lin Zhiyue, who took a fancy to Qin Shuangshuang, she broke off the engagement without hesitation."

Three-legged toads are hard to find in this world, but there are plenty of two-legged people. Do you really think you can use your power to force a girl to marry you?

"If your heart isn't in this, what's the point of marrying her? What if she cheats on you, Jingheng, after marriage? Wouldn't that be even worse?"

Song Cheng choked, feeling that Song Lin's words were too crude. Did they really have no sense of face?

Song Jingheng came with his father today. In fact, he had begged his father to come to the Song residence with him a few days ago.

He knew that he wasn't close to his cousins ​​and they had no real relationship with him, so if he came to them for help, they probably wouldn't even bother with him.

However, because of the prejudice he had against his eldest uncle over the years, his father was too proud to let go of his pride and kept putting it off.

Fortunately, upon learning today that his cousin had become the Crown Princess, his father changed his attitude and came with him.

"Uncle, I don't think things are that simple. Xiangxiang and I grew up together since we were little, and our feelings for each other have never changed over the years."

She was clearly very happy when they discussed the marriage, how could she suddenly change her mind in such a short time?

With a serious expression, Song Jingheng knelt down directly in front of Song Lin and performed a grand salute.

Song Lin only had a vague impression of his nephew, which was almost entirely from the past. Since returning from the border, he hadn't seen many of the second branch of the family.

Looking at him now, the boy had indeed grown up quite a bit. Although he wasn't as handsome as his own son, he was still quite good-looking, much better looking than his father.

"So you think she was coerced or bribed?" Song Lin asked.

Song Jingheng recalled the scene when he met Huang Xiangxiang. She seemed to have no lingering affection for him, and even when they talked about their past, Xiangxiang was not moved at all.

She had cherished their past so much before, and she treasured every gift he gave her, but everything seemed to change overnight.

He didn't believe that even if someone had truly changed their mind, it would have been a gradual process, a process that would take time. How could their mind have changed so suddenly in such a short period of time?

This is simply not possible.

“I don’t think it’s coercion or enticement, but rather the work of evil spirits,” Song Jingheng said seriously.

Upon hearing this, Song Lin understood that the boy wanted Zhen'er's help, so he said, "You want Zhen'er to help you see if there really is an evil spirit, right?"

Song Jingheng nodded repeatedly, "Yes."

"Brother, please help me out for the sake of my nephew!" Song Cheng added.

"You have to ask Zhen'er about this. Even though I'm her father, I can't make the decision for her."

Besides, she's just been made Crown Princess and is also treating the Empress Dowager; she must be very busy, and I don't know if she'll have the time.

Song Lin's attitude was very direct. In any case, his daughter always came first. As her father, he couldn't rashly agree to any conditions on her behalf.

Upon hearing this, Song Cheng understood Song Lin's intentions. Although he was somewhat disappointed that Song Lin hadn't agreed directly, the fact that he had come today had at least brought the two of them closer.

“Jingheng, if you have the chance, try to ask your cousin for help. If she has time, she should agree to help you. But if she really doesn’t have time, you can’t just make trouble for her, understand?”

Song Cheng was well aware of the Crown Princess's status.

It's normal for people not to want to talk to them; if they dare to force it, they're just asking for trouble.

"I see."

Song Jingheng nodded, fully aware of his identity and situation, but... thinking of Xiangxiang, he still wanted to swallow his pride and ask his cousin for help.

He felt things weren't that simple. If Xiangxiang really didn't like him anymore, he could let go. But he needed to be sure that this was the truth!

……

Song Ruozhen was unaware of what had happened in the Song family. She had a good sleep, and when she woke up, it was already dark.

Chu Junting seemed to have woken up long ago, but he didn't get up; instead, he lay down to keep her company.

"Are you awake? Do you still feel dizzy, unwell, and lack energy?"

Chu Junting looked at his wife with concern. When he married her, he was determined to give her a good life.

Who would have thought that after marrying her, he would find that his wife not only didn't gain weight, but actually became even thinner...

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, leaning against Chu Junting's chest, enjoying this sweet and peaceful moment. "I don't feel uncomfortable anymore. I feel much better after a nap. I'm just a little hungry."

"I've had some food prepared, all your favorites. Why don't you change your clothes first, and I'll have someone bring it in?" Chu Junting asked.

Song Ruozhen wrapped her arms around his waist, touching his well-defined abs, and said with a coquettish smile, "Wait a moment."

Chu Junting kissed her forehead, wrapped his arm around her neck, and put his arm around her. The woman's fair skin was delicate and smooth, like silk, and the faint fragrance emanating from her body was even more captivating.

"I will do as Madam says."

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "With this news coming out today, many people will definitely come to congratulate us."

We're not seeing any visitors today; I wonder if that will have any impact?

This wouldn't have been a big deal in the past, but now that they've just been made crown prince, they're avoiding guests. They're worried that people will use this opportunity to accuse them of arrogance.

"It's alright. Most people in this world are opportunists. Even if we keep turning away customers, they won't voice their dissatisfaction."

Besides, everyone knows you've been busy treating your grandmother. It's perfectly normal for you to rest.

This is a good opportunity to let Father Emperor know about your efforts and hardships, and he will reward you more generously.

Chu Junting chuckled. He realized that his wife really liked the jewelry bestowed upon her by the imperial palace.

The jewelry made by the Bureau of Jewelry is indeed very good, much more exquisite than what can be bought outside. Even though Zhen'er doesn't usually say it, he has noticed it through his observation.

Song Ruozhen couldn't help but laugh, "You're so good at scheming, I wonder what Father Emperor would think if he knew."

"As a good husband, I naturally have to think of my wife in every way."

Chu Junting looked completely at ease, not ashamed at all, but rather proud of it.

Soon, the food was served one by one.

Seeing all her favorite foods, Song Ruozhen's appetite was instantly whetted. She hadn't eaten anything all day, and everything looked even more delicious now.

The two ate while listening to the steward's report, which detailed who had visited that day and what gifts they had brought.

Without exception, they are all quite valuable.
