With a cold snort, Song Shuwan opened her eyes from the confusion. The next moment, the severe pain made her curl up.
"Baicao, Baicao?"
She shouted weakly twice, and just when she thought no one heard her, the door was pushed open.
Baicao quickly entered the room and came to the bedside: "Prince Princess, are you awake? How do you feel? Are you going to see the Korean doctor?"
Song Shuwan blinked and struggled to spit out one word: "Water."
Baicao quickly brought water.
Song Shuwan took a few sips with difficulty and was about to ask about the situation outside when she heard several knocks on the door, followed closely by Pei Huan's voice.
"Is anyone awake?"
Baicao turned around and said in a loud voice: "The Crown Princess has woken up."
The next moment, the door was pushed open, and Pei Huan entered in a wheelchair. When he saw Song Shuwan's condition next to the bed, his brows instantly furrowed.
"I heard from Dr. Han that you were in a coma. How are you now?"
Song Shuwan nodded: "It's a little weak, but it's not a big problem. I'll be fine after taking care of myself."
Pei Huan's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Your wound was caused by a special Tatar weapon. I'm afraid you've lost a lot of blood, and it might be difficult to recover from it."
Song Shuwan smiled, her pale face showing that she was very weak: "It's okay, it's just that there is a little more blood. By the way, how is the situation outside? Has King Yong caught him?"
"King Yong was seriously injured by the Tatars. The Korean doctor is currently rescuing him, but he doesn't know whether he can be saved."
Song Shuwan was startled and subconsciously wanted to sit up. However, as soon as she exerted her arm, severe pain suddenly hit her, causing her to gasp.
Baicao was startled: "Prince Princess, are you okay?"
Song Shuwan forced out a smile: "It's okay, it just hurts a little bit."
Baicao opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say, so she could only remain silent.
Pei Huan on the side looked at it and couldn't help but sigh: "Lie down, no matter what, King Yong will bring it upon himself."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips: "He indeed brought the blame upon himself, but if he dies here, I'm afraid it will affect the crown prince and me. Then..."
She shook her head, her expression solemn.
Pei Huan smiled: "It doesn't matter, I will minimize the impact, but this is not what matters right now."
Song Shuwan wondered: "What else is more important than this?"
"I gave Prince Ning a list earlier, how do you think Prince Ning will behave?"
Song Shuwan's eyes widened slightly and she said in disbelief: "Will Prince Ning send someone to ask for things according to the list?"
"Not only that, he will ask for more."
Song Shuwan: "..."
Prince Ning was so public and crazy in the capital, how could he do such unreasonable and unruly things when he got to the border?
After thinking about it, she asked directly.
Pei Huan said calmly: "In the capital, he lacks everything, so he won't mess around, but this is Ningyuan City, there are enemies outside, and I am an enemy inside. To be on the safe side, he must do something.
"
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and suddenly understood something: "So, the prince gave that list to Prince Ning on purpose? Just to lure him into action?"
Pei Huan admitted frankly: "Yes, only if he takes action can I suppress him openly. Besides, I didn't list that list for no reason. They are all merchants with different intentions and cheating. Just treat it as a gift."
They learned a lesson."
He was so detailed that Song Shuwan was speechless. To put it bluntly, both parties targeted by Pei Huan were not innocent. It was just such a method. If word spread, it would probably affect Pei Huan's reputation, right?
However, Song Shuwan only thought about this idea in her heart, but did not say a word about it.
Pei Huan didn't stay long and left after chatting for a while. The Tatars entering the city could be big or small, but one thing couldn't be avoided. There was another problem with the guards of Ningyuan City.
On this day, Lin Yujun patrolled back and forth in the city, and even arrested some people and put them in jail.
At the same time, Prince Ning's people also visited the merchants' mansions one by one. For a list, they asked for twice as much.
Not to mention how angry the merchants were, Pei Huan received the news and sent several secret guards to keep an eye on Prince Ning's residence.
After King Ning's people walked around the city, he immediately sent An San and Lin Yujun to the door and took away everything in front of King Ning.
An San said with a smile: "Thank you Lord Ning for solving Lin Yujun's dilemma. My eldest son has said that these things will be distributed to the people in the city in the name of the prince, so that all the people in the city will know the prince's kindness."
When King Ning heard this, his face turned green: "How dare you, who said that I want to give these things to the people in the city? You all put them down for me, and you are not allowed to take away any of them today."
However, after he finished speaking, neither An San nor Lin Yujun paid any attention to him.
Seeing that Lin Yujun was about to empty the things, King Ning gave an order and asked his men to stop him.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the mansion, followed by the concierge who stumbled in.
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. A lot of people came outside, saying that we wanted to distribute things here, and they came to collect them."
What?
Prince Ning could barely keep his expression calm, a pair of sinister eyes fell on An San, and he squeezed out a voice through his teeth: "Are you trying to push me to the forefront?"
An San smiled: "Prince Ning has misunderstood. My eldest son is grateful for your kindness and is afraid that the people will not know your kindness, so he behaves like this. How can it be said that he is pushing you to the forefront?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people rushed in.
"Quick, this is it. Prince Ning lives here!"
"Is the news true? Is Prince Ning really going to distribute things to us for the winter?"
"Can the news from Lin Yujun be false? Look, aren't the people standing over there Prince Ning and Lin Yujun?"
Prince Ning was stunned. Even if he had many words to say, he could not say a word to the people at this moment.
However, he was silent, but the people would not be silent. A commoner hiding in the crowd shouted: "Prince Ning, is this what you want to distribute? The common people are looking at it, why are there so few?"
Prince Ning narrowed his eyes, but before he could speak, An San picked up the words.
"Everyone, this is just a part. There are still some that have been moved away by Lin Yujun and are waiting to be distributed to everyone in the afternoon. Don't worry, as long as you are a commoner in Ningyuan City, you will definitely get something."
An San comforted them, distributed some of the things left behind, persuaded the people to leave, and then left.
Prince Ning looked at the group of people leaving, waved his hand and smashed everything at hand: "Pei Huan, you wait for me!"
The guards around him all lowered their heads, not even daring to look at King Ning's anger.
In the inn, Pei Huan looked at what An San brought back and was quite satisfied: "Well done. When we distribute the things in the afternoon, we must mention Prince Ning's righteousness and not hide his contribution."
Pei Huan specially emphasized the word "credit" at the end.
An San immediately laughed when he heard this: "Prince, please rest assured, my subordinates will definitely publicize Prince Ning's achievements!"
