Mistress Wen was in charge of sending the guests out. Song Xiangsi brought the maidservants to clean up the hall and clean up the tables, chairs and chairs.
Only then did he clap his hands and let out a breath. "So tiring, to have such a success."
However, she was a man after all. She didn't feel tired, and instead felt that it was more than enough. "Fortunately, as long as it's something for you, I'm willing to help you."
Song Xiangsi choked. Her face was a little red as she tilted her head and coughed a few times.
Mistress Wen came in from outside with a face full of smiles. "Lovesick, you're really awesome."
Song Xiangsi smiled and stretched lazily. "Alright, it's done. I'm going back too. I'm a bit tired."
"Then take care, I need some rest as well." It could be said that today, the Lady Wen had received her money and was very tired. The hardest part was the performance on stage. They were very nervous, afraid that they would make a mistake.
Song Xiangsi rested for a few days. As soon as she left the house that morning, she heard the two citizens discussing something. She could not help but listen attentively.
"Hai, the 'Western Faction Record' from a few days ago was really nice to watch."
"That's right, that Cui Ying Ying over there is too beautiful!"
"And there's also the Hong Niang, that Hong Niang is also very pretty!"
"I'm done reading, and I'm still not done yet. Unfortunately, it's too short. I really want to see it again."
Song Xiangsi could not help but smile inwardly. She expressed her happiness and pride at being able to leave an impression on others.
"It's much better than a phone book."
"They're all real people. Of course they're good."
Song Xiangsi did not continue to listen. When she entered the building, she found that Wen Niang and the others were all there. Her face was still filled with excitement, causing her to feel somewhat baffled.
Mrs Wen said, "You are finally here. Did you know that the both of them have risen in popularity and are now famous?"
Song Xiangsi looked over and saw the two girls playing Cui Yingying and Hong Niang. She was not surprised by this. She nodded and said, "I heard a lot of people discussing them on the way here just now."
The girl playing Cui Yingying blessed herself and softly said, "Thank you. If you hadn't chosen me …"
"There's no need to be polite. I'll only use you if you're suitable." Song Xiangsi waved her hand, "It's all thanks to your hard work."
The girl nodded, grateful.
Lady Wen took out an envelope from her bosom and handed it to her. "Take it." Song Xiangsi opened it and took a look. It was a dozen banknotes. He lifted his head to look at Wen Niang. "This …"
"This is what you deserve. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have earned this much." Madame Wen said with a smile.
Song Xiangsi did not refuse, "Alright, then I will not refuse." Madame Wen liked her dexterity, and her smile became even more satisfied.
Meng Ling Xuan had just entered the room. Upon seeing the banknotes, he joked, "I've made a huge profit. I'm rich now." Song Xiangsi glanced at him coolly before putting away the banknotes. She then clapped her hands, "I'm in a good mood. I'm going out for a walk in the street."
With that, she turned around and left. Meng Ling Xuan rubbed his nose, smiling as he chased after her. Looking at the two walking side by side, Wen Niang shook her head and smiled, then went back to work.
"Have you caught Li Cheng Yan?" As Song Xiangsi watched Meng Ling Xuan catch up, she suddenly thought of Li Cheng Yan. Ever since the last incident, Meng Ling Xuan had not been able to catch him. Upon hearing this, Meng Ling Xuan muttered, "He should go back and call for reinforcements."
Song Xiangsi raised an eyebrow, "Send for reinforcements?"
Meng Ling Xuan nodded thoughtfully. As expected, there should be news soon.
It was indeed as he had said. Li Chengyan hurried back, the first thing he did upon returning was to find his father and report this matter to him.
"Father, your big brother didn't think too much and was delayed by a woman. He didn't listen to any of your orders, so no matter what I do, it's useless to persuade him."
King Ding suddenly became furious. He slammed the table and let out a loud sound. "This unfilial son actually dared to disobey my orders for a girl!"
Li Shiyan lowered his head and laughed, continuing to pour oil on the fire, "I already said, but he refused to listen. He even said that for the sake of that girl, he would do anything."
What King Ding hated the most was for others to disobey him. With a sullen face, he said, "They really are getting bolder and bolder."
"Then, what does royal father plan to do?" Li Chengyan probed.
"I will send out the documents as soon as possible so that he can go to Qing He County as soon as possible!"
Having received the answer, Li Chengyan lowered his head with a satisfied smile, bowed and left.
Meng Ling Xuan received the documents very quickly. However, he sneered and ignored them. He placed the documents on the table and instead went shopping with Song Xiang every day without any worries. Meng Ling Xuan was becoming increasingly reluctant to end it like this.
It was only a few days later when he and Song Xiangsi were having dinner at the inn that they asked about this matter.
"To Qinghe County?"
Song Xiangsi was stunned, "Now?"
Meng Ling Xuan nodded, then said, "But I'll listen to you. If you want to go, then we'll go. If you don't, then stay until you want to go."
Why did he suddenly bring up this matter? Song Xiangsi asked, "Did your father urge you?"
Meng Fanxuan nodded. With a smile in his eyes, he poured her a cup of tea. "Mm. If you're unwilling, then no matter how many documents he sends me, it won't be of any use."
Song Xiangsi rolled her eyes at him and turned her head to ignore him.
Annoyed, he became more and more smooth with his sweet words lately.
However, every time … She felt very uncomfortable listening to it.
He drank a mouthful of tea and suppressed the heat on his face before feigning indifference as he said, "If you want to go, go. Why do you have to listen to me?"
"I'm already your man, so of course I have to follow you."
"Cough, cough …" Song Xiangsi was a little annoyed. "What nonsense are you talking about? When will I …"
The distance between the two of them had been shortened to less than a finger, and his eyelashes were almost within reach. Song Xiangsi was immediately stunned. Although she did not have any expression on her face, her ears were completely red.
Meng Fangxuan glanced at it, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a smile. "Hmm?" He lowered his voice and whispered into Song Xiangsi's ears.
She seemed to be in a daze. She pursed her lips and said, "It's up to you. Do you love it?"
Seeing that her ears were completely red, Meng Ling Xuan stopped teasing her. Otherwise, if he didn't go too far, he would still have to tease her. "Oh, then that's it. Since you've admitted to it, then you'll have to take responsibility."
Only then did Song Xiangsi react to what he had said. She was so angry that she almost drew her sword and stabbed out. Of course, most of it was anger due to embarrassment.
"You're talking nonsense. I'm leaving." She was about to stand up when Meng Ling Xuan hurriedly stopped her. "Ai, don't go. I won't tease you anymore."
Only then did Song Xiangsi retract her hand that he was holding onto. She glared at him and returned to her previous topic, "You should still go. You'll have to go sooner or later."
Meng Ling Xuan muttered to himself, "Alright, I've pressed down the paperwork for a few days now. If we drag this on, we might have to urge them again. It'll be troublesome."
There was a sneer on his face. Song Xiang thought for a while and said, "You could have told me earlier, there's no need to go easy on me."
She could feel her own feelings. Meng Fangxuan smiled. "If you and I were willing, others wouldn't allow me to do something like this."
There was a trace of arrogance between his brows. Obviously, as the young prince, he only had this kind of woman in his life, and she made him willing to compromise for her.
Song Xiangsi could not help but look at him. Their gazes made contact, and they smiled at each other.
