The fifth prince said angrily: "Nonsense, why does this prince want to take the letter from you?"
Forsythia's indifferent eyes swept across his face: "Wang Jiancheng."
The room fell into dead silence, but everyone's mood was not calmed by the atmosphere.
Song Shuwan lowered her eyes. She had already learned from Pei Huan that Wang Jiancheng was brought by the fifth prince, but she did not expect that the letter in Wang Jiancheng's hand was also given by the fifth prince.
Forsythia is from Hongfang. If she could give out those letters, does it mean that Hongfang also knows the Song family's case very well? But if so, why didn't she get information from Hongfang when she was in the capital?
What are the specific circumstances of the case?
All kinds of things were mixed together. The more Song Shuwan thought about it, the more confused she felt. She couldn't help but look up at Forsythia.
By that time, Forsythia had already had several rounds of conversations with the fifth prince, and the conversation had shifted from letters and Wang Jiancheng to the dead Tatar prince.
Forsythia said: "The Tatar prince was killed by you, the fifth prince. You kept saying you wanted to negotiate a peace, but in fact you did not agree with the peace negotiation. You wanted to use the power of Lin Yujun to force the emperor to make you the crown prince."
No one expected that Forsythia would say so many things. As time passed by, the fifth prince stood there blankly, with a gloomy expression on his face. After several changes, he finally chose silence.
When the matter reached such a stage, both Pei Huan and the fifth prince knew that it would not end well, but the identities of both parties also cast a layer of fog on the final outcome.
After a long time, King Ning sighed: "Leave the fifth prince to me."
Pei Huan moved his fingers slightly and glanced at him with calm eyes: "Then I will trouble Prince Ning to take care of me. But before that, I have to tell Prince Ning something."
"What's up?"
"The official sent by the capital to negotiate peace is Chen Nanwan."
Chen Nanwan?
Song Shuwan, who had been speechless, turned her head and wondered, who is this person?
At this moment, King Ning stood up and said, "The officials who negotiated the peace have nothing to do with me."
Prince Ning left with the fifth prince.
Song Shuwan approached Pei Huan and asked, "Who is Chen Nanwan?"
"An old friend of Prince Ning."
Pei Huan summarized Chen Nanwan in just one sentence.
Song Shuwan asked carefully, but when she saw the man tilting his head, she knew that he would not answer any more, so she simply suppressed her doubts.
Since there were no outsiders, Song Shuwan and Pei Huan turned their attention to Fei Yuan.
Song Shuwan frowned: "Fei Yuan, why did you betray me?"
Fei Yuan lowered his head and said nothing.
Song Shuwan clenched her fingers tightly and was about to get closer when she heard Pei Huan say: "Give her to Qinglian."
Song Shuwan paused and glanced at Qinglian with her peripheral vision: "Your Majesty... listen to Your Majesty."
She hesitated, but did not express her concerns.
After a while, Qinglian took Feiyuan away.
Pei Huan wanted to rest, but Song Shuwan did not stay. After returning to the room, she stared at Baicao.
"Qinglian said you were taught by her?"
Baicao lowered his head: "Yes."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips: "Why didn't you tell me before?"
"I thought that the Crown Prince had already spoken to the Crown Princess."
Song Shuwan couldn't see Baicao's face clearly, but she felt inexplicably angry in her heart, thinking that if Pei Huan really told her, why should she let Qinglian leave?
No, she didn't keep Qinglian, not because of Qinglian's identity from the beginning, but because of Qinglian's behavior.
Thinking of this, Song Shuwan rubbed her eyebrows and said, "Please step back."
Baicao raised her head: "Is the Crown Princess angry?"
Song Shuwan glanced at her: "Why should I be angry?"
Baicao whispered: "This slave did not explain Qinglian's situation clearly to the Crown Princess, so that..."
Song Shuwan raised her hand to silence her: "I don't keep Qinglian because she has too many ideas and will affect me. It has nothing to do with you. Okay, you can go out."
Baicao opened her mouth silently, then bowed and left after a few moments.
Song Shuwan turned around, thinking of Fei Yuan who was taken away, and frowned tightly. Even if Fei Yuan said it was for profit, she still felt something was wrong.
After being together for so long, no matter how she looked at Fei Yuan, he didn't seem like someone who would betray him.
How about finding a chance to meet Fei Yuan alone?
The idea emerged and kept lingering in Song Shuwan's mind. The next day, she looked for Baicao and asked about Fei Yuan. She learned that Fei Yuan was locked up in a room in the backyard and immediately went to find him.
When Song Shuwan saw Fei Yuan, she found that there was no surprise on her face.
Their eyes met, Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows: "It seems that you have guessed that I will come here."
Fei Yuan pursed her lips: "The Crown Princess doesn't understand, so she will definitely come to find out."
"Since you know, I won't talk nonsense anymore. Tell me, is your betrayal true or false?"
Fei Yuan smiled: "Concubine, do you think it is true or false?"
Song Shuwan frowned: "I thought I was the one asking now."
Fei Yuan said with a smile: "The person who asked is naturally the Crown Princess, but the Crown Princess already has the answer in her heart, right? If that's the case, why bother asking the slave to say it again?"
The room fell into silence. After a while, Song Shuwan said: "You are right. You really shouldn't talk about this matter again, but I just want to find out the reason for your betrayal. Don't talk about benefits. I don't believe a word of it."
.”
Fei Yuan sighed: "Does the Crown Princess really want the answer?"
"nature."
After a long time, Feiyuan spit out three words: "Xuanyu Pavilion."
Song Shuwan subconsciously repeated: "Xuanyu Pavilion?"
Fei Yuan nodded: "If the Crown Princess wants the answer, go to Xuanyu Pavilion. If nothing else happens, the Crown Princess will be satisfied."
Song Shuwan tightened her fingers, looked deeply at Fei Yuan, turned and left.
That afternoon, Song Shuwan and Baicao were preparing to go to Xuanyu Pavilion. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the door of the inn, two people blocked the way.
"I have met the Crown Princess, my young master, please come and sit with me."
Song Shuwan was stunned: "Your young master? Who is he?"
"He is an acquaintance of the Crown Princess."
One of them said, taking out a wooden sign from his arms.
Song Shuwan looked intently, and her eyes suddenly shrank. That was the wooden plaque of the Bai family. Are they the people of her uncle Bai Chu?
Thinking about it, Song Shuwan asked: "Your master's surname is Bai?"
The two didn't speak, but looking at their expressions, Song Shuwan knew the answer. After thinking about it for a while, she followed the two of them and left, and soon met Bai Chu.
"sit down."
Bai Chu pointed to the seat opposite and asked someone to bring tea.
Not long after the tea was served, Song Shuwan glanced at it and said, "Little uncle, just tell me if you have something to do. I have something else to do, so I can't delay it here."
Bai Chu smiled bitterly: "I know."
After saying this, he asked someone to bring him a list.
"I heard that many people in the city have opinions about you. Perhaps the items on this list can help you solve some problems."
Song Shuwan glanced at the list, shook her head and said, "These things on the list can't help me."
She didn't know why Bai Chu suddenly changed her temper, but unfortunately, the medicinal materials on the list were useless.
Bai Chu frowned, his eyes full of surprise: "The people of Ningyuan City can't even be touched by life-saving things?"
