"Hurry up and put out the fire, don't stay still, put out the fire quickly!"
Late at night, Ningyuan City was occupied by noises. People near Lin Yujun rushed out of their homes and were busy until dawn.
At that time, Song Shuwan was sitting in the carriage with Pei Huan, both of them looked solemn.
Not long after, An San got on the carriage: "The Crown Prince, Crown Princess, most of the army's food and fodder... were burned."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the carriage instantly became solemn.
Song Shuwan opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words as soon as they reached her lips. Pei Huan should be aware of the matter of food and fodder.
After a while, Pei Huan said: "How long can the remaining food and grass last?"
"If we save a little, we can still last for half a month."
Pei Huan pinched his eyebrows and said, "I understand. Let the generals in the army appease the soldiers. I'll go back to the inn first."
"yes."
The carriage turned back to the inn, Song Shuwan pushed the wheelchair inside, and saw Wen Yixiu walking towards her.
When the two sides faced each other, Wen Yixiu asked: "How is the fire in Lin Yu's army?"
Pei Huan said, "Let's talk after we enter the hall."
After a while, Wen Yixiu learned about Lin Yujun's situation, and his brows instantly furrowed: "For half a month, even if I send someone out, I won't be able to come back."
Pei Huan nodded: "So I am thinking whether to take action against the merchants in the city."
Wen Yixiu immediately objected: "The merchants in the city can move, but they cannot move together, lest they jump over the wall in a hurry, what do you think, Princess Royal?"
Song Shuwan: "..."
She felt that what Wen Yixiu said was reasonable. Pei Huan had exploited the merchants in the city, so it was only Lin Yujun who calmed down the situation. Otherwise, she didn't know what would happen.
While thinking, she expressed her thoughts.
Pei Huan clicked his tongue, his expression obviously more disapproving, but the two people in front of him obviously had the same idea, so he didn't say anything.
After a brief silence, Wen Yixiu spoke again: "Send someone to Anyuan City. It's close there. With a little more care in the city, we should be able to stabilize the situation."
Song Shuwan nodded: "That's the only way. Right now, we still have to put the stability of Ningyuan City first."
After finishing her words, she looked at Pei Huan. Although she said nothing, the inquiry in her expression was very obvious.
Pei Huan said calmly: "You two have already made arrangements, so why bother asking me?"
Song Shuwan pursed her lips and glanced at Wen Yixiu, who understood and immediately asked to leave.
After waiting for the person to leave, Song Shuwan said: "The prince is angry?"
Pei Huan asked, "Why do you say that?"
"If I wasn't angry, it wouldn't be..."
Before Song Shuwan could finish her words, An San appeared in a hurry, her tone full of surprise: "Prince, Crown Princess, An Yi is back."
As soon as these words came out, Song Shuwan and Pei Huan both looked away.
The next moment, Song Shuwan asked in surprise: "Where is he?"
"Just outside."
Then, a figure covered in blood walked into the hall.
An Yi saluted: "I have met the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess."
Song Shuwan only felt something stuck in her heart: "How can you pay back such a serious injury..."
Hearing a soft "bang" sound, Song Shuwan looked at An Yi who had fallen and quickly had someone help her to a chair.
After a moment, she inserted a few golden needles with a solemn expression: "Bring me some medicine for the wound. In addition, let him rest for the next few days. He cannot move around unless necessary."
Half an hour later, An Yi, who had taken care of his wounds, was taken away by two secret guards.
Song Shuwan turned around, her expression solemn.
"Your Majesty, it's time for treatment."
Pei Huan nodded: "Let's get started."
When the medicinal bath was over and Song Shuwan had just pulled out the golden needle, the secret guard came to report.
"An Yi woke up."
Song Shuwan and Pei Huan exchanged glances, and Pei Huan said, "You go and check on him first, I'll clean up, and then I'll go."
"good."
Song Shuwan responded and went to see An Yi first: "How do you feel?"
An Yi held up her arms and was about to sit up, but Song Shuwan quickly stepped forward and held her down.
"The injuries on your body are very serious. Some places have been delayed and the injuries have been to the root. It's better to move less for now and just lie down."
An nodded, lay down obediently, and asked: "Prince Concubine, where is the Crown Prince?"
"He just finished taking a medicated bath and is still cleaning up. He will be here soon."
As soon as Song Shuwan finished speaking, she heard the sound of the door opening from behind. She turned around and saw that it was Pei Huan who came.
"How's it going?"
Pei Huan asked.
Song Shu responded wanly: "It's pretty stable. If you take good care of it from now on, there won't be any big problems."
"There's no problem. Tell me, why did you come back in such a mess?"
An Yi said weakly: "My subordinates were chased back by a group of people. They claimed to be from Hongfang and wanted to clear out all the people who left Ningyuan City."
People from Hongfang?
When these four words came out, everyone in the room changed their expressions, but Pei Huan remained unmoved, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
After a few moments, he asked: "Are you sure he is from Hongfang?"
An Yi shook his head: "I'm not sure, but I feel that Hongfang was taken care of by the prince before, and many people know about it. Under these conditions, no one should pretend to be Hongfang."
Pei Huan knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair: "Your concerns are reasonable, but they are not certain."
An Yi was slightly stunned: "What does the Crown Prince mean?"
"It's also possible that those people are from Hongfang, and they are taking action now for revenge."
At this time, Song Shuwan said: "If the people from Hongfang are really here to take revenge, why don't they look for the prince, but instead focus on the people who left Ningyuan City?"
It is said that every wrongdoer has his own debtor, but Song Shuwan didn't believe it. The people in Hongfang would avoid the key point.
Pei Huan sneered: "How dare they? I am not a soft-hearted person."
If he can destroy Hongfang once, he can destroy it a second time. People in Hongfang don't dare to gamble.
After that, Pei Huan spoke again: "No matter who is behind it, since the clue is exposed, let's follow the clue."
Song Shuwan's heart moved: "The prince wants to use his plan? But what if the news brought back by An Yi was deliberately released by them, wouldn't it be..."
Pei Huan sneered: "Then let me see whether the news An Yi brought back is true or false."
Song Shu hesitated, but didn't say much. After a while, she left first, and within a few steps she met Wen Yixiu, who was coming towards her.
The cold wind blew by, lifting Wen Yixiu's clothes and fluttering elegantly.
"I've met the Crown Princess."
Song Shuwan nodded gently: "Young Master Wen, you don't need to be polite. I wonder where Mr. Wen is going?"
Wen Yixiu raised his head and smiled before saying anything: "Wen is here to find the crown prince."
Looking for her?
Song Shuwan was a little surprised, but she quickly reacted: "Young Master Wen wants to ask me something, just tell me."
Wen Yixiu nodded: "Wen wants to know what's wrong with the prince's leg and whether it can really be cured? Also, there are many things related to the prince's concubine spread in the city, but are they true?"
