Song Shuwan frowned slightly: "Why doesn't the emperor know? No matter how high the queen mother's status is, she can't surpass the emperor in the palace, right?"
"But the emperor doesn't know about Princess Jingyang's presence here."
This short sentence made Song Shuwan open her eyes wide: "Your Majesty, you don't know that Princess Jingyang is here? Then why did you..."
At this point, Song Shuwan stopped abruptly. Pei Huan had hinted at her, but never mentioned the emperor with certainty.
In other words, she thinks too much.
Realizing this, Song Shuwan pressed her eyebrows: "Since the Emperor doesn't know, how can the Queen Mother dare to cross the Emperor and take Princess Jingyang back?"
"You also said that the Queen Mother wants to give Princess Jingyang a credit. As long as the credit is big enough and there is some emotion, even the Emperor will give in."
Hearing this, Song Shuwan fell into silence, because she knew that after everything went according to what the Queen Mother wanted, the result would definitely be what Pei Huan said.
"Your Majesty, do you want to agree?"
A coldness flashed through Pei Huan's eyes: "Since Princess Jingyang has left Beijing, she should stay here obediently. I won't care what happens in the future, but right now, no one can put their plans on me."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips, looked at the man's back, and couldn't help but ask: "What is the reason why the prince is here?"
She asked this question several times, but Pei Huan didn't give an answer every time.
Pei Huan knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair: "When the time comes, you will know it."
Song Shuwan smiled: "The prince always fools me with the same answers, isn't it bad?"
Pei Huan tilted his head slightly: "Do you want the result? Then get what I want from the prefect's wife as soon as possible."
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows: "Okay, then I'll work harder."
Not long after, Pei Huan left.
Song Shuwan walked to the window, which faced the street. Pedestrians were coming and going, and it was very lively.
Just now, was Pei Huan looking at the pedestrians passing by?
Song Shuwan looked at it for a moment, then closed the window and sat down by the bed. She had been in Yuanzhou City for some time, and she still hadn't figured out Pei Huan's plan.
Pei Huan, what are you planning?
Song Shuwan thought hard and couldn't find any result, so she could only suppress her thoughts temporarily.
Unexpectedly, that night, she suddenly heard a sound from above in a hazy state, followed by a huge crash from next door.
"boom!"
The door was kicked open and Song Shuwan sat up instantly. Her head felt dizzy for a moment, but she soon regained her composure.
"Baicao, Feiyuan, what's wrong?"
Baicao hugged Niusu, while Feiyuan turned around and closed the door. Both of them looked solemn.
"Two hours ago, the Crown Prince received a message and left the inn with some secret guards."
Baicao put down her curls and walked towards the window while talking.
Seeing that she was about to approach the window, Fei Yuan suddenly said: "Get away!"
Baicao reacted quickly and fell back without even thinking.
Almost at the same time, several arrows flew in.
Song Shuwan felt her eyes flicker, and a flying kite appeared in front of her. After several "ding-ding" sounds, the arrow was shot down to the ground.
Fei Yuan turned around, his face full of murderous intent: "Who is so secretive that they don't even dare to show their face? Get out of here!"
After a brief silence, several men in black jumped into the house from the window and landed firmly on the ground.
"Is this the Crown Princess?"
Song Shuwan's face changed slightly, and she held Niao Niao in her arms with one hand: "It's me, what do you want to do?"
The man in black did not speak, but threw a jade pendant on the ground.
By the moonlight, Song Shuwan discovered that the jade pendant was the gourd-shaped jade pendant she had given to Liu Shu during the day.
"What did you do to the prefect's wife?"
After Song Shuwan reacted, she quickly asked.
One of the men in black said: "Want to save her?"
Song Shuwan's eyes flashed slightly. Aren't these people coming for Pei Huan? Damn it, Pei Huan took away half of the secret guards. Why haven't the remaining secret guards come out yet?
On the other side, the man in black saw that she was silent and asked again: "Do you want to save her?"
Song Shuwan came back to her senses: "She and I have only met each other a few times. If you have any purpose, just go looking for the prefect Tong Xian. It's useless to look for me."
The man in black sneered: "Really? Then let me see if Liu Shu is really not important to you."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
At this moment, several tiny rays of golden light flashed quickly, and Baicao and Feiyuan nearby also pounced on it.
Song Shuwan said coldly: "Kill them!"
No one in this group of people who threatened Liu Shu out of nowhere could survive.
Baicao and Feiyuan got the idea and struck very hard. In just a moment, they knocked down half of the men in black.
Song Shuwan hugged Niusu and moved towards the door step by step. Suddenly, there was a figure behind her, followed by a cold blade on her neck.
"Where does the Crown Princess want to go? I know that the Crown Princess is unwilling to do so, but her life is in the hands of others, so it is better to cooperate."
Song Shuwan's body froze. There was actually someone hiding in the room.
Gritting her teeth, Song Shuwan asked: "What do you want me to do?"
"We would like to invite the Crown Princess to be our guest."
"Invite me to be a guest?"
Song Shuwan repeated, frowning slightly: "Is that just that?"
"That's all."
The person behind her emphasized her tone. Song Shuwan looked at Baicao and Feiyuan who had stopped in front of them. After thinking for a few times, she put down Niao Niao.
"I'll go with you, but you can't hurt anyone here."
"No problem. If the imperial concubine had cooperated earlier, the current situation would not have happened."
Song Shuwan ignored the ridicule of the people behind her, opened the door and walked out: "You protect Niao Niao, don't follow me."
Baicao and Feiyuan paused in their footsteps at the same time. After looking at each other, they really didn't dare to move.
The street was dark at night, and after walking a few steps, Song Shuwan noticed an extra carriage in front of her.
"Prince Princess, get on the carriage."
Song Shuwan did not resist and got on the carriage very cooperatively. Almost at the same time, a dozen figures appeared around the carriage.
"Walk!"
As the carriage ran on the street at night, Song Shuwan turned her head slightly, and the fingers on her knees tightened unconsciously.
Pei Huan, where are you now?
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage gradually stopped running.
"Come down."
Song Shuwan came to her senses, got off the carriage in cooperation, looked around, and found that the carriage was in a deep alley, with a moonlit street not far away.
She turned around and realized that the threatening person behind her did not make any cover, openly revealing a face full of burn marks.
Their eyes met, Song Shuwan asked calmly: "Who is your master? Why do you invite me to be your guest?"
"Once you enter that courtyard, you will naturally know the answer."
Song Shuwan looked in the direction he pointed, and a door just opened. After a moment, she gritted her teeth and stepped into the yard.
Darkness enveloped the place, and the moonlight gradually disappeared.
