The atmosphere in the hall fell into stasis, Zhen Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly: "What is the Crown Princess hiding?"
Song Shuwan directly met her gaze: "Miss Zhen, what do you think I am covering up?"
As her contact with Zhen Yuan increased, Song Shuwan's views on him also changed. From the initial surprise to now, she has become more helpless. Without him, Zhen Yuan's ideas are really too out-of-the-box and annoying.
It's impossible to guess.
In the silence, Zhen Yuan hummed softly: "What else can the Crown Princess cover up? It's just that the little princess is still here..."
"Miss Zhen, be careful what you say!"
Song Shuwan reminded her for the third time, and then asked Baicao to see off the guests.
Such behavior made Zhen Yuan frown unconsciously: "The Crown Princess is really heartless. Even if we don't talk about the little princess, we still have some friendship, right? Seeing guests off directly would make my heart cold."
Song Shuwan remained silent and allowed Zhen Yuan to talk non-stop.
Seeing the passage of time, Zhen Yuan also stopped and sighed for a while: "Since the Crown Princess is determined to ignore friendship, I won't bother you here anymore and take my leave."
Baicao sent the person away, then turned around and frowned: "Prince Princess, what exactly does Miss Zhen mean? Obviously..."
Song Shuwan made a silent gesture: "No matter what she means, we will not get involved in the messy things outside."
On the emperor's birthday, various forces gather in the capital, and there must be a lot of turmoil behind the scenes. It depends on who can be better and seek benefits after ensuring their own safety.
The next day, Song Shuwan removed the last bit of poison from Princess Yun's body, and then asked about Prince Yun's situation: "It has been a few days since the prince was taken away. Is there any relevant news about the princess?"
Princess Yun shook her head gently: "Not yet, but I have already sent word to the Yun Mansion that even if the prince cannot be saved, he can still be safe."
Song Shuwan's eyes dimmed, she didn't want the result of Yun Wang Wuyu.
"Aren't you in a hurry, Princess?"
A question made Princess Yun narrow her eyes slightly: "What does the Crown Princess mean by this?"
"Prince Yun has not left the prison for a day, which means that the emperor has never thought that he is innocent. Under such circumstances, if someone attacks Prince Yun, do you think the emperor will protect him?"
There was silence in the room. Princess Yun raised her head slightly, with some inexplicable meaning in her eyes: "The Crown Princess said so much, she has only one purpose, right? Who do you want me to deal with?"
Song Shuwan blinked: "What did the princess say? How could I let you deal with others?"
Princess Yun raised her eyebrows: "Really? Then you are asking me to say these words today, just a few words?"
The two words at the end of Princess Yun's words were very light, but the underlying tone was solemn.
Song Shuwan smiled and asked, "Can't you be worried about the prince?"
Princess Yun's expression suddenly became strange: "Will the Crown Princess be worried about the Prince? As far as I know, the Crown Princess's impression of the Prince is actually not good, right?"
"It is indeed not good, but the princess also knows that Da Zhou is currently unjust internally and externally, and Prince Yun is the only choice to suppress the situation. I am only thinking about Da Zhou's safety."
Having said this, Princess Yun fell silent.
Time passed little by little, and after a while, Princess Yun said: "I don't care why the Crown Princess is worried, but the status quo must be maintained for now."
"So, the princess is not in a hurry to save people, right?"
"good."
Princess Yun walked to the door while she was talking, and when she spoke again, she said something else: "The Emperor's birthday is coming soon, has the Crown Princess prepared any gifts?"
Song Shu responded politely: "It has been prepared a long time ago. We are just waiting for the emperor's birthday."
Princess Yun turned around and said, "Now that the congratulatory gifts are ready, please invite the Crown Princess to go to a place with me tomorrow."
Song Shuwan frowned slightly, doubts flashed in her heart, but she quickly pressed: "Yes."
After leaving Princess Yun, Song Shuwan went directly back to the room.
Baicao brought tea and said softly: "Just now news came from the Marquis Mansion, saying that the Queen Mother will hold a palace banquet at Cining Palace tomorrow to entertain ladies and ladies from various families. Please be careful when entering the palace."
Song Shuwan tilted her head slightly: "Tomorrow?"
Baicao nodded: "Yes."
Song Shuwan moved her fingers slightly, with a bit of confusion in her eyes. Princess Yun asked her to accompany her to a place tomorrow. Could it be Cining Palace?
At dawn the next day, Song Shuwan saw Princess Yun. Before she could ask her questions, Princess Yun made a silence gesture.
"Let's go, Crown Princess."
The carriage was shaking. Song Shuwan opened the window slightly, looked at the passers-by outside, and turned around and asked, "The princess wants to enter the palace to attend the banquet hosted by the Queen Mother?"
Princess Yun shook her head gently: "It's not about entering the palace."
After saying these four words, Princess Yun stopped talking.
Seeing this, Song Shuwan could only suppress her doubts and wait quietly for her destination to arrive. However, it didn't take long for her to realize something was wrong and she quickly asked: "Princess, why is the carriage going outside the capital?"
Princess Yun put her hands on her knees and said softly: "The place I want to go is just outside the city."
Their eyes met, Song Shuwan tightened her fingers slightly, turned her thoughts several times, and finally said nothing. Princess Yun would not attack her at this time, so she would just follow.
I don’t know how long it took, but the coachman’s reminder came into the carriage.
"Princess, Crown Princess, Anle Village has arrived."
Anle Village?
Song Shuwan opened her eyes and glanced across Princess Yun's face: "Where is this Anle Village?"
Princess Yun got off the carriage: "Where the eldest prince is."
What!
Song Shuwan's pupils shrank, and she immediately got off the carriage without thinking about it carefully. At this moment, several people suddenly appeared at the entrance of the village not far away. The leader was a young man dressed in commoner clothes.
When the two sides faced each other, the young man raised his hands and saluted: "I have met the emperor's aunt."
Princess Yun nodded gently, turned her head and said, "This is the eldest prince."
Song Shuwan said lightly: "I have met the eldest prince."
The eldest prince was a little stunned and asked: "Auntie, who is this?"
"Prince Pei."
With the word "Pei", the eldest prince immediately understood: "You two, please follow me."
The group entered the village. Song Shuwan looked around and found that the people in this village were living well. Although there were no brocade clothes or satin, everyone's clothes had no holes and were neat and clean.
Princess Yun also noticed this and said with a smile: "The eldest prince manages this village very well."
The eldest prince smiled: "The people in the village are willing to cooperate, so I will naturally satisfy them."
Just as he was talking, a villager suddenly chased him from behind: "Your Highness, a few people came to the entrance of the village and said they wanted to see you and asked you to get out immediately."
The eldest prince paused, and his expression was obviously more displeased: "What a big tone, you dare to ask me to go out immediately. Can you tell me who the person is?"
The villager nodded: "As I said, he said he was... sent by King Ning."
The displeasure in the eldest prince's expression became more and more obvious: "Auntie, I'll excuse you for a moment."
After the eldest prince left, Song Shuwan was about to speak, but Princess Yun pointed behind her and said, "Look who is behind you?"
Song Shuwan subconsciously turned around and shouted in surprise: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
