Time passed and the room fell into an eerie silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Pei Huan sneered: "Does Prince Ning bring up the past again to prove that he is right? But in my eyes, Prince Ning's hands have never been clean, so why rush to throw the blame to others?
"
Having said this, his cold eyes fell like sharp arrows, full of disdain and sarcasm.
Prince Ning's face darkened: "I have never said that I am clean, Pei Huan, fifty thousand soldiers on the border lost their lives because of you, how dare you answer the people calling you the God of War?"
Song Shuwan listened, her doubts getting stronger and stronger. Pei Huan once said that King Ning wanted to kill him because of old grudges, but now according to what King Ning said, the so-called old things actually involved Lin Yujun?
She wanted to ask, but with Prince Ning nearby, she could only suppress her doubts.
At this time, a boy ran in: "Your Majesty, the fourth prince is here."
Prince Ning snorted coldly: "Let him go. I will never see a prince from a foreign race."
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows and couldn't help but said: "Prince Ning said that he would not see princes born from foreign races, but my wife was in the palace earlier, and she saw that Prince Ning and the seventh prince were very close."
Prince Ning's eyes were full of disdain: "I'm just a waste, how worthy is he?"
Song Shuwan listened and suddenly didn't know what to say. The fourth prince was a prince born from a foreign race and he didn't see him. Even when he saw the seventh prince, he could only say "trash".
With King Ning's temperament, I'm afraid there is no one else who can catch his eye except Pei Huan, right?
On the other side, the boy ran to reply, but was beaten back not long after. He rolled around on the ground in a panic and couldn't get up.
Prince Ning saw this in his eyes, and his expression became even colder: "Anyone who dares to touch me, you are seeking death!"
The fourth prince walked in from the outside and happened to hear these words. He paused for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
"It's just a little boy who delivers a message, but the emperor actually takes it to heart? It's really surprising."
Prince Ning looked at him coldly: "It depends on the owner to beat a dog. Have I given you this right?"
The fourth prince smiled: "It seems that this right does not need to be given by the emperor himself."
"Whoosh——"
A fan brushed the fourth prince's cheek with strong wind, and blood overflowed and gradually slid down his face.
The fourth prince's smile froze on his face, and he looked at Prince Ning with disbelief in his eyes: "Uncle, you want to kill this prince because of a servant?"
That's right, the fan just now was aimed at the Fourth Prince, but it was hit by a stone on the way, causing a slight error.
No one saw where the stone appeared from, but it actually saved the fourth prince. If not, the fourth prince would have fallen to the ground at this time.
The surroundings fell into silence, and Prince Ning straightened his sleeves slowly: "So what if I kill you? Even if the emperor is here today, I can kill you."
The fourth prince's expression kept changing, and there was a bit of fear in his eyes.
After a while, he actually left directly with the people.
At this time, Prince Ning pointed his finger at Song Shuwan and Pei Huan: "Get out of here too!"
Pei Huan sneered: "Let's go!"
On the way back to the inn, Song Shuwan wanted to speak several times, but was paused because Pei Huan closed her eyes to rest.
Seeing that he was about to return to the inn, Pei Huan suddenly opened his eyes: "What do you want to ask?"
Song Shuwan's fingers on her knees tightened slightly: "What does the fifty thousand soldiers mentioned by King Ning mean?"
Pei Huan did not answer but asked: "What do you think the words King Ning meant?"
The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the carriage gradually became stagnant.
I don't know how long it took, but the coachman's reminder sounded: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the inn has arrived."
Pei Huan smiled slightly, and after An Yi showed his head, he said: "There are many things that are either right or wrong. You have to learn to distinguish between them."
Song Shuwan frowned and watched Pei Huan leave. Does she have to learn to tell the difference?
The problem is, Pei Huan has hidden so many things from her, how can she tell the difference?
After gathering her thoughts, Song Shuwan caught up with Pei Huan: "The prince's previous statement that he would leave Yuanzhou City in two days at most, does it still count?"
"For the record, my destination has only been Mingzhou City from beginning to end, and it will not change due to any changes."
Hearing this, Song Shuwan said nothing more, but walked a few steps quickly and returned to the room before Pei Huan.
For the next two days, Song Shuwan didn't even leave the room. When Pei Huan came, she immediately took her luggage downstairs.
Outside the inn, An Yi was packing his luggage with his guards. When he saw her appearing, he immediately saluted: "I have met the Crown Princess."
Song Shuwan nodded, looked around and found that Pei Huan was not there, so she asked, "Where is the prince?"
"Back to the Crown Princess, the Crown Prince has just received a piece of news and needs to deal with it. Let me leave first."
Leave first?
Song Shuwan had some doubts in her heart, but she didn't ask any more questions.
Half an hour later, the motorcade went up the official road and headed towards Mingzhou City.
On the other side, Pei Huan looked at the fourth prince across from him with a cold expression: "I have said before that I will not help you deal with the seventh prince. Please stop pestering the fourth prince."
The fourth prince smiled: "I know what you are going to do in Mingzhou City."
"Yeah?"
Pei Huan's words rose slightly at the end: "Since the fourth prince knows what I am going to do in Mingzhou City, how can he dare to stop me at this time and waste my time?"
The fourth prince put one hand behind his back: "As long as we handle it properly, what if it takes some time? Prince Pei, I have given you the utmost sincerity. If you continue to shirk, it will be too disrespectful to me."
Pei Huan laughed when he heard this: "I work for the emperor, do I need to give face to the fourth prince?"
As soon as these words came out, the fourth prince's face instantly darkened: "Pei Huan, don't be so shameless."
Pei Huan smiled and said slowly: "I don't dare to ask for the face given by the fourth prince. Time is urgent, so I won't stay here and take my leave."
The fourth prince's tone was gloomy: "You rejected me, prince. Do you think you can still leave?"
Pei Huan turned his head slightly and looked at the fourth prince with a bit of helplessness in his eyes: "Why, the fourth prince still wants to keep me here?"
The fourth prince was speechless and backed away little by little.
Dozens of guards surged out from all around, surrounding Pei Huan. The swords shone with cold light, making them look even sharper and colder under the sunlight.
Pei Huan sighed and moved his fingers slightly on his knees: "Fourth Prince, as a minister, I really don't want to have anything to do with anyone from the royal family, especially the prince."
The next moment, the guards of the fourth prince were surrounded by people who appeared again.
An San appeared: "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has left Yuanzhou City."
Pei Huan nodded lightly, and murderous intent came out of his words: "Let's do it, except for the fourth prince, no one will be spared."
Blood splattered, but in just a moment, all the Fourth Prince's men were killed, leaving only the Fourth Prince alone.
