Song Zhiyu's glorious deed of 'jumping into the lake' in dissatisfaction with the imperial marriage gift spread throughout the entire noble circle. Although the original voice claimed it was an accident, nine out of ten chose not to believe it.
Unbelievable, which of the women who accompanied Song Family's Jade Young Master was not tender and stunning, whereas the future daughter-in-law, though not crude and burly, was definitely not tender. This disparity was too vast; who wouldn't despair?
When people are desperate, they become irrational, and everyone understands that.
Therefore, explanations are weak; the more you explain, the more you appear to be covering up.
The Song Family simply kept silent. If you want to discuss, go ahead. This way, people will know that this marriage was not something we, the Song Family, shamelessly begged for, so the charge of forming cliques for private gain cannot be pinned on us.
