Song Shuwan blinked, scanning Pei Huan's face with scrutinizing eyes, and chuckled: "The prince has already spoken to this extent, do you still need me to answer?"
The two people's eyes met, and neither Song Shuwan nor Pei Huan spoke again.
After dinner, Pei Huan left.
Song Shuwan sat alone, her dislike for Qinglian becoming more and more obvious.
At this moment, Qinglian walked in from outside the door: "Qinglian has met the Crown Princess."
Song Shuwan remained silent and allowed Qinglian to maintain her saluting posture.
Seeing the time for a cup of tea passing by, Qinglian stood up on her own.
Song Shuwan glanced at her: "Did I let you get up?"
Qinglian pursed her lips and chuckled: "Of course not, but Qinglian feels that there is no need for the Crown Princess to punish Qinglian for a trivial matter."
"Punishment?"
Song Shuwan repeated her words, with a cold arc on her lips: "Qinglian, I don't like people who have too many ideas."
Qinglian blinked and smiled very gently: "What a coincidence, Qinglian doesn't have very good ideas either."
With their eyes facing each other, Song Shuwan moved her fingers a few times, but she didn't react immediately, but stared at Qinglian without saying a word.
Qinglian didn't dodge, and looked at Song Shuwan openly.
"boom!"
Suddenly there was a sound of collision, and both of them turned their heads at the same time, and saw Baicao and Fei Yuan carrying a box into the house. After a while, the box fell to the ground, and Fei Yuan dragged a person out from inside.
"The Crown Princess, Baicao and the servants have captured Forsythia."
Song Shuwan was shocked, what are Baicao and Feiyuan doing? Prove that they are no worse than Qinglian?
The idea popped up in Song Shuwan's mind and never came back. After a while, she pinched her eyebrows and said, "Baicao, Feiyuan, do you two have anything to do?"
Baicao coughed softly: "Both slaves have something to do, but they just happened to run into each other when they were out, so they were caught back."
Song Shuwan was silent, she didn't believe this explanation at all.
On the side, Qinglian was looking at Forsythia with interest: "You don't have much ability. You were captured just after you were released. It's really a waste of Mr. Wen's plan."
Hearing Qinglian mention Wen Yixiu, Song Shuwan suddenly realized that Wen Yixiu had told her that he would take Forsythia away from Ningyuan City, so how come he is back now?
After thinking about it, she asked directly.
Forsythia lowered her eyes and closed her mouth without saying a word.
Song Shuwan didn't care. She waved her hand and asked Baicao to lead the people away. She turned around and saw Qinglian's half-smiling expression without raising a brow.
"I have made my words very clear before. You don't need to waste time here with me. Go back quickly."
Qinglian frowned: "Don't worry, once Qinglian stays with the Crown Princess for a while, the Crown Princess will know the benefits of Qinglian."
Song Shuwan: "..."
After a while, she sighed: "I don't like to have other people's eyes around me."
Qinglian tilted her head slightly: "How did the Crown Princess know that Qinglian would be someone else's spy?"
"Aren't you?"
Song Shuwan asked and dismissed everyone in the room.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Song Shuwan was awakened by a burst of noise outside, and then heard Qinglian's voice ringing in her ears.
"Prince Princess, please get up quickly and Qinglian will take you out of the inn."
Song Shuwan rubbed her eyebrows: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Qinglian took the clothes and said: "The fifth prince has surrounded the inn with a group of guards, and the prince is responding in front."
Song Shuwan took the clothes and said casually: "It's just that the inn is surrounded, why should I leave?"
Qinglian's hand paused, and then she frowned: "Is the Crown Princess thinking of going to find the Crown Prince?"
The two people's eyes met, and Qinglian's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Concubine, please stop joking. Even though this is Ningyuan City, the fifth prince is still the fifth prince. There is no way for the prince to confront him openly.
Once the inn is completely surrounded, even the crown prince will not be able to escape safely."
Song Shuwan put on her outer robe and looked over after Qinglian finished her words: "Do you really think that the Crown Prince can't handle the fifth prince?"
"Qinglian just feels that there is no need to take risks just in case something happens. Please ask the Crown Princess to leave with Qinglian immediately."
Song Shuwan shook her head: "I won't leave with you."
"Prince Princess?"
Song Shuwan ignored her: "Baicao, Feiyuan."
Baicao and Feiyuan pushed the door open at the same time: "Prince Princess, please give me your instructions."
Song Shuwan nodded her chin at Qinglian: "Keep an eye on her and don't let her go out to cause trouble."
After that, she strode away.
Not long after, Fei Yuan caught up from behind: "Baicao has given Qinglian medicine, and she will lose her strength in a short time."
Song Shuwan hummed and said, "This time, I must let the crown prince take Qinglian back."
On the other side, Pei Huan and the fifth prince were in a stalemate.
As time passed, the smile on the fifth prince's face gradually disappeared: "Prince Pei, this prince comes here with sincerity. You keep pushing back, but you don't give me face?"
Before Pei Huan could say anything, a burst of laughter spread into the hall.
"Face is earned by oneself, and it is worthless if given by others."
As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Ning showed up with Hongyao in a swaggering manner, and at the same time directed the guards beside him to pour tea.
After sitting down, he said with a sigh on his face: "Those who know say this is the residence of the God of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but those who don't know think it is the residence of some petty official and petty official who dares to jump in and mess with anything."
The fifth prince's expression changed, and he said with a smile, "Uncle, are you dissatisfied with me?"
Prince Ning sneered: "Don't act stupid when it comes to things that are obvious to you. Don't think that you are really stable just by deposing a few princes. Waste is waste. No matter how much you jump out, you can't get out of that hole."
well."
Outside the hall, Song Shuwan suddenly stopped. Prince Ning was... directly confronting the fifth prince?
The next moment, the angry voice of the fifth prince came out of the hall: "Who do you think you are? Do you really think that if I call you uncle, you will be superior? Come on, help me capture these two traitors!"
Traitor!
Song Shuwan's heart tightened, all kinds of thoughts turned around, and she pulled Fei Yuan and quickly retreated to the side.
At the same time, a group of people rushed into the hall, led by An San.
Song Shuwan looked at him and instantly understood that Pei Huan had expected the fifth prince's visit today. Just as she was about to retreat, there was a sudden chill on her neck, and a dagger with a cold light was placed on Song Shuwan's neck.
"Fei Yuan, what do you mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything, I just want to ask the Crown Princess for a favor. Come in."
Fei Yuan's voice was very cold, completely no longer out of the ordinary.
Song Shuwan pursed her lips: "Are you real or fake?"
"Prince Concubine, do you think I am real or fake?"
After Fei Yuan finished speaking, he directly pushed Song Shuwan into the hall.
At that time, the atmosphere in the hall was solemn, but the appearance of Song Shuwan and Fei Yuan broke the solemnity.
Pei Huan said coldly: "Fei Yuan, remove the dagger, I will spare your life."
