"After the Hairpin Ceremony, do you know that I will enter the palace?"
Shen Chanli had only been in Tang Mansion for a few days. He did feel something vaguely, but the news still surprised him.
His heart moved with Tang Wan'er's words, and for a moment, he impulsively wanted to take her away directly.
"If you don't want to, come with me immediately! No matter whether you marry me in the future or not, I will take you to escape. It doesn't matter if you escape to the ends of the world! The world is so big, there is always a place for you. Moreover, I also I don’t want to see you jumping into the big fire pit in the palace.”
"How many people want to enter that palace but haven't had a chance yet. Don't worry, Mr. Shen, if I really don't want to enter the palace, even if you force me, you won't be able to force me to do so. I will naturally find a way to solve the problem. You have to have confidence in my ability. That's right. I'm not the kind of person who only hides and cries when others bully me. I will protect myself."
Looking at Tang Wan'er's frowning expression, Shen Chanli still couldn't bear it. He knew that maybe this was just her forced composure. Although he also knew that Tang Wan'er had many powerful things, if entering the palace was done by imperial decree, it would be a mere act. A weak woman cannot disobey orders.
"Are you really planning to enter the palace? Then, what should I do? And don't you also like that person?"
"Entering the palace is the order of the emperor from my parents, and I am not the only one entering the palace this time, but also my good sister Tang Chu. Oh, by the way, Tang Mei, who sticks to you every day, will also be sent to the palace one day. You know, this is Grand Bachelor Tang Jie’s wishful thinking. His daughters are all his pawns, so if you don’t go into business, it’s really a waste of good materials.”
When speaking these words, Tang Wan'er's tone was cold, as if she had just come out of an ice cellar, and even Shen Chanli could clearly feel the chill.
"You don't want to."
"I do."
"I heard that you are not willing, but why do you insist? Once you enter the palace, you will become the wife of that bitch emperor. No matter what you say, you will be intolerable. If you really want to do that, I might as well kill that emperor with a knife... "
Because you love yourself, do you even dare to say the words of regicide?
"Who said I have anything to do with that emperor? I went to the palace for other reasons. Otherwise, I would have stayed in the princess's mansion - that is, Princess Heshuo's mansion. I am good friends with that princess - which would be better than this Tang Mansion is so strong. After all, there are still people here who feel uncomfortable seeing me living comfortably."
"Can you protect yourself? You obviously don't have any effort at all."
"Yeah. That's a thing. But I still have a use here, and I still have bodyguards."
Tang Wan'er pointed to her head, indicating that she was still a bit of a thinker.
"Just tell me anything, but I can't bear to see you suffer."
After hearing the news that Tang Wan'er was going to the palace, Shen Chanli felt that he couldn't go back to Qinghe Villa now. Anyway, he had friends all over the world, and the Shen family's side business - many businesses were also spread across the country, and he wanted to protect them. she!
Tang Wan'er looked at Shen Chanli's firm eyes and roughly guessed Shen Chanli's determination. He might stay in the capital for her own sake.
In this case, she thought it was time to tell him the secret in her heart. Let's not care whether he believed it or not.
So, in the end, Tang Wan'er seemed to have summoned up all the courage and was ready to tell Shen Chanli the truth.
