Outside the imperial study, Song Shuwan was pushing her wheelchair, quietly waiting for the emperor's summons.
The sun in the sky gradually rose, and seeing it getting hotter and hotter, a little eunuch ran out: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Concubine, please."
Song Shuwan wiped the sweat from her forehead and pushed Pei Huan into the imperial study.
"I declare you two to enter the palace, you should know the reason."
Song Shuwan lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Pei Huan opened his mouth to speak, but what he replied was not the emperor's words, but a question: "Your Majesty, how much of the things reported in the capital are true, in your opinion?"
The emperor laughed in anger, pointed at Pei Huan and said, "I am asking you, but you are asking me instead?"
Pei Huan smiled slightly: "I just feel that the emperor already has the answer in his heart."
At this point, Pei Huan's eyes narrowed slightly and he directly met the emperor's gaze: "For example, my health has improved, and the emperor is just pretending not to know."
After a short pause, the emperor pinched his eyebrows, and then raised his eyes. His anger was gone, only melancholy remained: "Do you know how bad her reputation will be after today?"
Pei Huan said calmly: "She won't care."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips. As long as she could get revenge, a little reputation really didn't matter to her.
At this time, the emperor asked her what she thought.
Song Shuwan raised her eyes, nodded and said, "I really don't care."
The emperor looked at her, and the minister in his memory suddenly appeared. Thinking of the minister's ability, he couldn't help but ask: "Are you really the daughter of Song Wei?"
Song Shuwan slowly shook her head: "My wife just happens to be named Song, and I don't know Song Wei."
"What a coincidence that my surname is Song."
There was a deep meaning in the emperor's eyes, and he tapped his fingers on the imperial desk a few times, and then asked: "Do you know what you would have faced if it hadn't been for Pei Huan in this matter?"
Song Shuwan met the emperor's gaze, and for some reason, she suddenly remembered how frightened she was when she saw the emperor for the first time. It didn't take long, but now that she was facing the emperor, she no longer had the same fear.
Perhaps, the emperor's favor and favor had smoothed away the fear in her heart.
After gathering her thoughts, Song Shuwan said: "But this time the issue is that there is a prince. The hypothetical situation does not exist, so why bother to talk about it?"
The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly: "That's right. The hypothetical situation does not exist, so there is no need to explain it. Pei Huan, take care of your imperial concubine. Next time, I will take care of you and step aside."
The two of them bowed and left.
Song Shuwan was walking in the long palace, her expression still a little dazed. Pei Huan was really important to the emperor. After learning that Pei Huan's eyesight had returned, she stopped everything.
"The emperor is really treating the prince..."
Before she could finish her words, she was paused by the oncoming group of people.
"Pei Huan, are you okay?"
The little princess hurriedly came forward. After she finished her questioning, her eyes suddenly turned to Song Shuwan's face. The next moment, she stepped forward and slapped Song Shuwan's face.
Her speed was so fast that Song Shuwan was still in a daze. She was unable to avoid it and was hit so hard that she turned her head away. After a few moments, five fingerprints slowly appeared on her fair skin.
The little princess pointed at Song Shuwan and said angrily: "Ever since you married into Dingyuan Marquis, Pei Huan's reputation has been affected by you. Song Shuwan, you are a woman, why can't you just stay in the backyard and have to show up in public?
, to embarrass Pei Huan and the Marquis?"
Song Shuwan touched the place where she was hit, her eyes fell on the little princess's face, a cold feeling quickly flashed across her face, and then she heard a "pop" sound, and she slapped the little princess back.
There was silence for a moment, and then there was an uproar.
"How dare you do something to the little princess?"
"Prince Pei, where did you learn the rules?"
Even Pei Huan didn't expect Song Shuwan to fight back, and his brows instantly furrowed, but he couldn't reveal the recovery of his eyes yet, so he could only deliberately ask: "What happened?"
"Prince Pei, the imperial concubine is so unruly, she actually slapped the little princess!"
"Prince Pei, the little princess has a golden branch and a noble status. How can a prince concubine humiliate her?"
Song Shuwan glanced at the two palace maids who were talking, and slapped the little princess again with her backhand.
Two consecutive slaps in the face, the palace people around were shocked to the spot, so frightened that they could not speak.
Pei Huan: "..."
Song Shuwan was deliberately making things difficult for him.
"Little princess."
The little princess covered her beaten cheek with tears in her eyes: "Pei, Pei Huan..."
"My wife has broken the rules. Please don't blame the little princess. Wan'er, why don't you quickly apologize to the little princess?"
Song Shuwan twitched the corner of her mouth and approached the little princess with the five fingerprints on her face.
Before she even took two steps, several workers reacted and separated her from the little princess.
"Stand there and don't move. Don't get close to the little princess!"
"How dare you, Song Shuwan, you are just a princess, how dare you do anything to the little princess?"
A hint of impatience flashed in Song Shuwan's eyebrows. She was beaten, but who were these maids talking about?
"Wan'er, apologize to the little princess."
At this time, Pei Huan increased his tone.
The little princess pursed her lips, and a flash of calculation quickly flashed, and she said: "There have been many things going on recently, and the Crown Princess's mood has been affected and has become bad. I understand, so the Crown Princess does not need to apologize, and you are waiting. Today's events are not allowed to be spread outside.
,Brother Huan, is this good?"
"Brother Huan" made Pei Huan frown slightly, but he quickly concealed the change and said in a calm tone: "I'm sorry for the little princess. I heard that the little princess likes pearls recently. Someone gave me a handful a few days ago.
Pearl, if the princess does not dislike it, I will send someone to take it to the palace tomorrow."
The little princess's eyes brightened slightly: "Brother Huan, have you always cared about me?"
Because she was so happy, she even forgot about being slapped twice.
Pei Huan lowered his eyes: "No, let's go."
Pei Huan said the last two words to Song Shuwan.
Song Shuwan moved her wrist and saw the little princess staring at Pei Huan without blinking. A slight pity flashed deep in her eyes. What on earth did the little princess see in Pei Huan? She even slapped her hard twice.
I can all bear it.
However, when she dared to take action, she was sure that the little princess would not have a fit in front of Pei Huan. It was really...ridiculous.
On the carriage back to the Marquis Mansion, Pei Huan said, "You have lost control of your emotions these past few days."
Song Shuwan tilted her head: "Isn't it clear to the Crown Prince why I lost control of my emotions? Or does the Crown Prince still want me to be patient as usual? I can't fight back even if I'm bullied?"
Pei Huan did not speak, but suddenly raised his hand and landed on her cheek: "If you really want to pursue the case, little princess, you won't be able to do anything good."
The warmth of the man's hand penetrated the skin. Song Shuwan raised the corners of her lips and smiled openly: "You are here, what can the little princess do to me?"
