Seeking Clarity
"We meet again, Your Highness."
There was an eerie sound coming from behind. Song Qinghuai looked back and saw Wei Ping not far away.
Linyuan had returned earlier, but because he was worried about being noticed by Wei Ping, he did not follow closely. Before returning, he wrote down the general direction.
Unexpectedly, the two groups of people finally reunited.
"It seems that he is destined to be with Admiral Wei."
Song Qinghuai said politely, silently calculating in his heart.
Pei Qing must have some way of communicating with his subordinates. Wei Ping will find this place. Could it be that Pei Qing is here?
But judging from the things Yue'er left behind, she is also here.
Song Qinghuai had a gentle smile on his face, but he was extremely reluctant to see Wei Ping here.
If Yue'er is with Pei Qing, who knows if she is being dragged down by Pei Qing...
Wei Ping stopped not far away and said jokingly: "The person Xu Shinu and His Highness are looking for is right here."
"What Admiral Wei said is true."
Song Qinghuai lowered his eyes, but his men quietly moved away to block him behind him: "Besides the princess, who else is Admiral Wei looking for?"
"Your Highness is a smart man, so he must have heard something." Wei Ping glanced at Song Qinghuai and made a gesture with his hands behind his back. After that, the factory guards dispersed silently, and there was a vague tendency of a confrontation between the two parties.
"I've come to see you, Your Majesty. I ask Your Highness to be accommodating and don't let the news leak out."
Wei Ping may appear humble on the surface, but the murderous aura of the Dongchang people is hard to ignore.
"Admiral Wei is really loyal."
Song Qinghuai said gently and gently, as if he didn't care about it, but he also put his hand on the sword on his waist.
Wei Ping did not want to have a conflict with Song Qinghuai before retrieving Pei Qing, so he raised his hand to stop the factory guard and said slowly: "Your Highness, this is a serious matter, so please don't embarrass me."
"Admiral Wei's words are serious, but the whereabouts of the princess are unknown, and Pei's palm print is also missing. It's hard for me not to think that there is no connection between the two."
Wei Ping's expression darkened, and he slowly clenched his palms. Both sides fell silent, and there was tension in the air.
In the suffocating silence, a sound suddenly came from the cave behind Song Qinghuai.
Wei Ping and Song Qinghuai both stared at the dark entrance of the cave.
However, there was no more sound from inside. Song Qinghuai gave Lin Yuan a look and suddenly entered the cave alone.
Seeing this, Wei Ping immediately followed him. Linyuan did not stop Wei Ping, but led someone to stop the factory guards and others behind him.
Song Qinghuai had just listened attentively for a moment when Wei Ping rushed in.
He almost didn't stop for a moment and went to where Song Qing'an and Pei Qing were.
Song Qinghuai followed immediately, and the two of them saw Song Qing'an and Pei Qing staying together almost at the same time.
Song Qing'an stroked Pei Qing's cheek with one hand, raised his eyes faintly, and smiled on his lips: "Brother is finally here."
"What's wrong, Lord?"
Wei Ping's eyes were serious, as if he wanted to kill Song Qing'an on the spot.
"Pei's palm seal was poisoned by the assassin and fell into a coma temporarily. Why don't Admiral Wei send a message to Mr. Lu first?"
"Don't worry about the matters in the East Factory, Princess."
Wei Ping's tone was stiff and he spoke every word, and Song Qing'an could feel the gnashing of teeth in his words.
Song Qing'an lowered his eyes and softened his eyes: "Maybe...but Pei's palm seal saved my life, so it probably has something to do with it."
"I can agree to Admiral Wei's previous request."
Song Qinghuai looked at the two people and suddenly said. Wei Ping suddenly turned back and snorted: "Does Your Highness want me not to publicize the current situation?"
"Admiral Wei naturally understands."
Song Qinghuai smiled modestly, but Song Qingan felt that the eyes falling on him were a little cold: "You and I will just pretend that this didn't happen. As for the princess, I will take good care of her."
"What my brother means is what I mean."
Song Qing'an's knees were slightly numb from the pressure of Pei Qing, and Song Qinghuai's words also made her feel guilty. But there was still Wei Ping around, so of course she couldn't show her timidity.
"Don't worry, Admiral Wei, Pei Zhangyin's injury has been simply treated."
Song Qing'an said, taking out two hidden darts from his front pocket and throwing them at Wei Ping: "I also keep the assassin's things, maybe Admiral Wei can use them."
Wei Ping took it with a sullen face, glanced at the secret dart briefly, and put it away.
"I hope His Highness will keep his promise."
"nature."
Song Qinghuai's lips curled up slightly and he glanced at Song Qing'an: "Then Gu Xian took the princess away."
"Your Highness, please do as you please."
Wei Ping stepped aside and leaned against the stone wall with his arms folded.
Song Qingan wanted to get up by himself, but his legs felt numb and weak for a while, and finally he was carried out by Song Qing.
Before going out, Song Qinghuai took off his cloak and wrapped it up for her.
Song Qing'an said nothing and behaved like a quail.
"Lin Yuan."
"yes."
Shortly after Song Qinghuai left, Wei Ping walked out of the cave with a very ugly look on his face.
He sent one person to inform Lu Chuan while thinking about what had just happened.
The Lord's situation...is very bad.
It must have something to do with that princess.
Wei Ping gritted his teeth in hatred, and his murderous intention came back.
If it weren't for the princess, why would the Lord be like this?
What a disaster!
But...the Lord seems to value her very much.
Really... why the hell doesn’t Lu Chuan come?
Wei Ping paced back and forth at the entrance of the cave impatiently. Everyone under his command stood with their heads bowed, and no one asked.

After Song Qing'an was found, she entered the palace. The imperial doctor came to treat her stab wound, and Emperor Liang also came to visit her.
Jiang Zhi came with Emperor Liang and was surprised to see Song Qing'an in such a mess.
But she soon realized that this was a good opportunity to make Xiye suffer, and with a few words, she drew Emperor Liang's attention from Song Qing'an's injury to Xiye.
Seeing that Emperor Liang was about to get angry, Jiang Zhi coaxed Emperor Liang away in time.
Song Qingan raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was watching a show.
Her injuries were not in vain.
King Xiye led Yaning Alan to come to apologize, but was turned away.
Song Qing'an can hold grudges very much. If it weren't for Yaning Alan's provocation, why would she be like this?
"Yue'er."
Song Qing'an felt his head tremble and couldn't help but lie down.
She was just a little weak, and one of her arms suffered some minor injuries, but she was actually fine.
But Song Qinghuai looked like he was going to raise an army to hold him accountable, so she acted like she was sick.
But Song Qinghuai knew her tricks very well.
"Yue'er, what's going on?"
"Why is Pei Qing with you?"
"What the hell do you have?"
Song Qing'an had never seen his brother so impatient, and he knew that this matter would not be fooled.
"Brother, I..."
"We'll talk about it after we think about it."
Song Qinghuai sat down beside her couch, as if he wanted to have a long conversation with her.
Song Qingan choked and fell silent.
Neither brother nor sister opened their mouths, it seemed like a silent confrontation.
Song Qinghuai looked at her and felt in a trance.
Yue'er... is already so big.
Song Qing'an's eyebrows fell in his eyes, familiar yet unfamiliar.
After returning to Beijing, or during these years, he has been deceiving himself.
Lie to yourself that Yue'er will not change, she will always be the same as she was at the beginning.
But she was alone in the palace...
It's not that he doesn't know about Song Qing'an's changes, but he just doesn't want to face them.
He also knew what he had changed.
To a certain extent, he and Yue'er were both very much like the people they hated most.
"Yue'er."
Song Qinghuai broke the silence and looked into Song Qing'an's surprised eyes.
"Do you regret it?"
