Chapter 190: Abstinence Dali Temple Shaoqing VS Brothel Madam
Chapter 190: Abstinence Dali Temple Shaoqing VS Brothel Madam
I heard the sound of conversation.
"What should we do now? He's already here. Has the master said how to deal with him? It's not a good idea to keep him here forever."
"I don't know. Given his status, it's not right to kill him like this. However, his current behavior is blocking the way for the higher-ups. Compared to the Song family, the higher-ups are more important."
"Forget it, let's wait for the master's order before taking action."
……
Song Yanli's eyes suddenly turned cold. These people who kidnapped him actually knew his identity. Judging from their tone, they were people from higher up.
The people above...
No wonder this case encountered so many obstacles. It turned out that someone above was protecting it. But who was that person?
Although he was only a Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, the Song family had some status in the court. The only ones above his father were the chief ministers in the cabinet.
But judging from the tone of these people's voices, their status seemed to be higher than that of the Prime Minister of the Cabinet. Then, above them... Song Yanli's face suddenly became tense, and above them was the royal family.
After coming to this conclusion, Song Yanli's eyes suddenly turned cold.
If things were really as he guessed, then the matter would be complicated, but only in this way could it explain why the Dali Temple Minister treated him like this.
No matter how dissatisfied he was with himself, he wouldn't do it so obviously. It was obvious that he had the confidence.
The only one who could give him such confidence was the royal family.
Song Yanli hesitated.
He has never been afraid of power, but he thought of the Song family and also thought of her. She was the easiest to be manipulated in a place like Yuanyang Tower.
If she were targeted again because of him, I'm afraid these people wouldn't treat her the same way they treated him.
Song Yanli has been in the Dali Temple for many years. He knows best that the life of a girl like her is worthless. If she is targeted by someone, she can easily lose her life.
A conflicted look flashed across his eyes, but he finally seemed to have made up his mind that he shouldn't have dragged her into this mess.
The person who had been guarding the door walked away.
After they walked a distance, they couldn't help but look back.
"Do you think he could escape from inside? I deliberately left the lock hanging. He only needs to reach out from inside the house and turn the lock to open the door and escape."
"Why are you padlocking it? What if he sees the padlock and doesn't escape?"
"Tell me, can he understand the master's intention? I hope he can stop after he knows that someone behind him doesn't want him to continue investigating."
"Master, you're just trying to scare him. After all, he's General Song's orphan, so you can't really attack him. But this Fifth Young Master of the Song Family is so stubborn, I'm not sure if he can really understand Master's intentions."
……
Mu Wan'er had been at the academy for the past few days. Seeing her unhappy, the great scholar tried to comfort her, "Forget it, Wan'er. A forced melon won't be sweet. Since Young Master Song isn't interested, why don't you just let it go? There are thousands of good men in this world, and your father will find one for you in the future."
Mu Wan'er smiled sadly: "Father, Wan'er knows that there are thousands of good men in the world, but my heart can only hold Song Lang. The others have no other meaning to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door, followed by a cold male voice, "Teacher, are you there?"
The great scholar recognized Song Yanli's voice. He was so angry that he blew his beard and glared. He stretched out his hand to scratch his beard and said angrily: "This boy is so rude. He bullied my daughter and dared to come here. I will definitely not open the door for him."
Mu Wan'er was surprised at first, then she stood up happily. She said happily, "Father, it's Song Lang who's here. I'll go open the door for him."
Having said that, without waiting for the great scholar to answer, she came to the door as quickly as a fluttering butterfly and opened it.
Song Yanli was indeed standing at the door.
She didn't expect Song Yanli to come back. Her cheeks quickly flushed and she lowered her head like a little girl.
"Brother Song, why are you here?" Mu Wan'er asked shyly.
Song Yanli hesitated to speak, "I came here this time because I really want to ask you for help with something."
As he spoke, Song Yanli bowed and saluted deeply.
Mu Wan'er was a little confused when she heard this, but she immediately bowed and said hurriedly, "Brother Song, there's no need to be so polite. Just say it."
Song Yanli hesitated before speaking his mind. Then, with a hint of guilt, he said, "I know I'm sorry for you, but I can't think of any other solution. This is probably the only way to solve my current problem."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cloth shoe flew out from inside and hit Song Yanli directly on the forehead.
The great scholar no longer cared about his appearance. He rushed out of the courtyard, clothes in hand. He pointed at Song Yanli's nose and cursed: "You bastard, you have your own romantic debts, and you actually want my daughter to pretend to be yours... to settle these things for you... What do you think of our Wan'er?"
Mu Wan'er reached out to stop the scholar. She didn't dare look him in the eye. She lowered her head and stammered, "But father, Wan'er is willing."
As she spoke, she looked up at Song Yanli and repeated, "Brother Song, Wan'er is willing to help you with this. You go back first. Tomorrow, according to your plan, Wan'er will come to find you."
Song Yanli looked at the great scholar with guilt, bowed respectfully, and then turned and left.
After watching Song Yanli leave, the great scholar looked at his daughter beside him with a look of disappointment. He asked, "Do you know what you just agreed to? Song Yanli only knew that his beloved was in danger, so he pushed you out. But did he ever consider that you would be in danger too?"
"It's okay..." Mu Wan'er chuckled. "Brother Song said that with my status, ordinary people wouldn't dare to touch me easily. Besides, Brother Song will protect me."
As she spoke, she reached out and climbed onto the great scholar's arm, smiling sweetly: "Besides, father, this is my only chance."
As she spoke, her eyes sparkled. She said, "Father, I'm a disappointing child. I've loved Brother Song since I was little, and you know how I feel. Since my mother passed away, the person I love most is you, father. I beg you to fulfill my wish."
As she spoke, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the great scholar.
"Father loves his daughter. It's his daughter who is not as good as he deserves. But this is his lifelong wish. Please fulfill it."
The great scholar looked at his daughter kneeling in front of him for a long time, and finally heaved a long sigh, closed his eyes and said helplessly: "Forget it, forget it, it's up to you."
……
Madam Feng just woke up. She knew that in a few hours, she would suffer a major blow.
