Because of Song Shuwan's remarks, the atmosphere at the banquet became very awkward. Not long after, the lady asked to leave.
Mrs. Xin Guogong wanted to keep him, but when she saw Song Shuwan staring at her with a smile, she could only swallow her words to persuade her to stay. She was afraid that Song Shuwan would say something treacherous again, which would affect not only those present. These guests will even be involved in the Xinguo Duke's Mansion.
"Everyone, go slowly, everyone, go slowly..."
As the last guest left, Song Shuwan stood up and took Baicao back to Yuzhu Courtyard.
Behind him, Zhong Rou suddenly raised his hand and knocked everything on the table to the ground.
"Mom, look at Song Shuwan, what is she so proud of? How dare she..."
"Shut up!"
Mrs. Xin Guo Gong scolded her coldly, her eyes fell on Zhong Rou's face, and she suddenly felt a little disappointed. Her daughter could not compare with Song Shuwan.
Previously, Song Shuwan had acted lowly and concealed the entire Xinguo Duke's palace. Now that she was in power, she could suppress the other ladies in the palace with just a few words and did not dare to say anything.
"Rou'er, during this period, you'd better not go back to the Duke's Mansion."
Zhong Rou's eyes widened instantly: "Why? Mom, this is..."
"Before Song Shuwan leaves, just stay in the Zheng Mansion and don't say much!"
Mrs. Xinguo Gong's tone suddenly became harsh. Zhong Rou opened her mouth, feeling extremely hateful in her heart. Song Shuwan must have done something to make her mother so afraid.
Hateful, she was just an orphan, how could Song Shuwan dare?
Zhong Rou gritted her teeth and lowered her head to hide all her emotions: "I understand, mother."
Mrs. Xinguo Gong did not notice anything unusual and asked Zhong Rou to leave before returning to the main courtyard.
On the other side, as soon as Song Shuwan returned to the room, she noticed that there was an An Yi in the room, and she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "The prince asked you to come."
An Yi cupped his hands and said, "The Crown Prince is waiting for the Crown Prince in the private room at the end of the second floor of Mingyin Building."
Song Shuwan said "hmm" and after watching An Yi leave, she sat by the window and sipped tea very naturally. After half an hour, she asked Shang Baicao to go out, saying he went out for a walk.
Mingyin Tower.
Pei Huan listened to An Yi's reply, and a smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously: "She is quite bold."
An Yi frowned: "What the Crown Princess said, once it reaches the ears of the Emperor, I'm afraid it will cause another trouble."
Pei Huan lowered his eyes: "No."
Even if the emperor heard the death-free medal, he would just pretend he didn't hear it, and even the people at the banquet wouldn't say anything.
Because they dare not talk nonsense.
Just as he was thinking about it, there were several gentle knocks outside the door.
Pei Huan raised his eyes, and his pupils spread instantly.
An opened the door and then respectfully stepped aside.
The person standing outside the door was Song Shuwan. She entered the door as if nothing had happened. After closing the door, she sat opposite Pei Huan: "Is the prince here for today's banquet at the Duke's Mansion?"
Pei Huan nodded, then shook his head.
Song Shuwan was surprised: "What does this mean, Prince?"
"I heard that you gave the soul flower to the Duke's wife."
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows: "Why, the prince is reluctant to let go?"
"If you were just sending flowers, I wouldn't say anything, but you...why did you let Mr. Han reveal the existence of the soul flower to the little princess?"
It turned out that he came to question her.
The corners of Song Shuwan's lips raised, but there was no trace of smile in her eyes: "Why does the Crown Prince say that I asked Mr. Han to reveal the soul flower? And if I remember correctly, Mr. Han will leave the capital soon, why would he enter? Are you going to treat the little princess?"
Silence fell in the private room. An Yi and Baicao all stood to the side with lowered eyebrows, minimizing their presence.
Time passed little by little, and the sharp look in Song Shuwan's eyebrows became more and more serious.
At this time, Pei Huan picked up the teacup in his hand and said, "Do you think the people in the Divine Doctor Valley refused the emperor's summons?"
Song Shuwan sneered: "Without you, even the emperor's people wouldn't be able to enter the Marquis' Mansion to summon Mr. Han, right?"
Pei Huan sighed: "You are too hostile to me."
"Is it because I am too hostile, or is it because the prince has taken advantage of the situation and put me in danger several times?" Song Shuwan slapped the table, obviously very angry, but her tone of voice was still extremely calm.
Pei Huan squeezed the tea cup in his hand and his tone became colder: "I said, I will explain those things to you, but you should not give the soul flower to the Duke's wife after the Han Lang revealed the existence of the soul flower. "
There was sarcasm in Song Shuwan's eyes: "After all, the prince came to me because of the little princess. You are afraid that the Duke's wife will transfer the soul flower to the little princess, and I will ask Han Langzhong to help me harm others, right?"
Pei Huan frowned. He found that there was something wrong with the conversation between them.
"What I mean is that even if you let Mr. Han reveal the soul flower, you should not give the soul flower to the Duke's wife at this time. Once this is revealed, it will be fine if nothing happens to the little princess. Once something happens..."
"What if something goes wrong?"
Song Shuwan interrupted Pei Huan's words, her eyes becoming colder: "Your Majesty, please remember that I will no longer treat the little princess."
Having said this, Song Shuwan turned around and left.
As soon as she put her hand on the door, she heard Pei Huan say from behind: "The engagement between Prince Yong's Mansion and the little princess cannot be canceled. Once the engagement is concluded, the Emperor will immediately move to Prince Yong's Mansion."
As soon as these words came out, Song Shuwan quickly turned around with a bit of shock in her eyes: "The emperor doesn't love the little princess the most, how could he..."
Pei Huan put one hand on the armrest of the wheelchair and said calmly: "Little princess, are you worthy of power?"
Song Shuwan opened her mouth and wanted to refute several times, but found that she didn't know where to refute.
"boom!"
The door at the back was suddenly kicked open. Song Shuwan felt her eyes blurred before she was pulled open by Baicao, followed by several people who broke into the private room. The leader was the little princess.
When the two sides faced each other, the little princess looked at Song Shuwan, her eyes suddenly turned red: "Pei Huan, you clearly told me that you would not meet her, what do you mean now?"
Song Shuwan's brows instantly furrowed. Even if she had no feelings for Pei Huan, she was still the concubine being married by the official matchmaker of the Hou Mansion. What did the little princess rely on for her questioning tone?
She was about to speak when she was interrupted by Pei Huan: "Go back to the Duke's Mansion. Things here have nothing to do with you."
Song Shuwan tightened her fingers, glanced across the faces of Pei Huan and the little princess, and finally left without saying a word. She wanted to see if it was true in the end, as Pei Huan said, that the emperor wanted to use the little princess's engagement to seduce Yong. The palace.
Baicao followed behind, and after a few hesitations he said, "Shi, madam, aren't you angry?"
Song Shuwan said calmly: "So what if I'm angry? Baicao, others don't know the situation between me and him, so you should have guessed something. Why should I be angry in this situation?"
"But……"
Before Baicao finished speaking, her expression suddenly changed: "Be careful, madam!"
