Song Shuwan went out looking for fame and saw Pei Huan entering the room.

Cheng Qing turned her eyes slightly, quickly exited the room, and closed the door.

As time passed, Song Shuwan pinched her eyebrows and said, "I do have some questions, but... will the Crown Prince give me the answer?"

Pei Huan asked, "Why not give it?"

The two people's eyes met, and Song Shuwan tightened her fingers: "Did the prince forget about the little princess?"

Pei Huan never explained anything related to the little princess. Not only that, he also asked her to endure it. Under this premise, how could Song Shuwan not be suspicious?

Pei Huan nodded: "The little princess's matter is indeed my question, but I didn't answer it, but I didn't deny it either, right?"

Song Shuwan frowned. She didn't like the answer, but she couldn't deny it, because Pei Huan really did what he said.

After a brief silence, Song Shuwan expressed her previous doubts: "When did the Crown Prince regard the Yong'an Marquis Mansion as the key to a breakthrough?"

"I have never considered the Yong'an Marquis Mansion as the key to a breakthrough."

Pei Huan's answer stunned Song Shuwan: "Never? Then why was the banquet at Yong'an Marquis Mansion..."

"You are the one who is interested in the party."

Pei Huan's tone was very calm, but it was precisely because of his calmness that Song Shuwan realized something.

"On that day, the prince, did you go to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion just because of me?"

Speaking of the last few words, Song Shuwan's voice was close to silence.

Pei Huan looked at her intently, without saying a word, but he already gave her the answer.

After a long time, Song Shuwan turned her head. It turned out that she had made a mistake from the beginning. The Yong'an Marquis Mansion had indeed played a role in the current situation, but what really made the situation turbulent was the restoration of Pei Huan's eyes.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through her mind, and Song Shuwan pinched her eyebrows: "On the Emperor's side, do you blame the Crown Prince?"

Pei Huan asked, "Do you think the emperor will blame me?"

Song Shuwan pursed her lips: "I said something wrong, and the emperor blamed me and didn't say anything about the prince. But now that the news of the prince's eyes regaining sight has come out, there must be a lot of changes on the border, right?"

Pei Huan nodded: "The emperor plans to let the little princess and Xie Youxing get married in these few days."

Song Shuwan's heart sank, and she understood the meaning of the man's words almost instantly: "The Emperor wants King Yong to go to the border, but the Emperor used Princess Jingyang to get the military power back. How could the Emperor give it back?"

A hint of complexity flashed in Pei Huan's eyes: "The emperor indeed took back the military power through Princess Jingyang, so he will not give it back."

Song Shuwan pursed her lips: "So?"

"Prince Yong went to the border with Lin Yu's army."

"Lin Yujun, that's not the prince's..."

Before she finished speaking, Song Shuwan frowned, but she knew that this was the only way at the moment, but she wondered why the emperor was suddenly so wary of King Yong?

Could it be that King Yong did something behind his back that the emperor could not accept?

Thinking about it, she looked at Pei Huan, but chose to remain silent.

Pei Huan knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair: "Don't worry about King Yong for now. Don't forget about the marriage between the little princess and Xie Youxing."

Song Shuwan's eyes darkened and she said softly: "I will never forget what I know."

After a while, Pei Huan left.

Song Shuwan sat alone for a long time before being pulled back from her thoughts by Cheng Qing who turned around.

"What did the Crown Prince and Crown Princess talk about?"

Song Shuwan looked at Cheng Qing's face and asked instead: "You are very concerned about what the Crown Prince and I will talk about, but you are not too concerned about the affairs of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion. Can I ask why?"

Cheng Qing smiled slightly: "The fate of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion has already been determined, why should I care about it?"

Song Shuwan held her cheek with one hand and scanned Cheng Qing's face with a scrutinizing gaze. After a while, she sneered: "You can't hide your thoughts by saying so much, Cheng Qing, I don't care why you came to me, but you remember Come on, don't put your plans on me, I'm not a good person."

After saying these words, Song Shuwan waved her hand for Cheng Qing to retreat.

Time passed two days later, and news came from the palace that the wedding day of the little princess and the crown prince of Prince Yong's Palace had been chosen, and when all the ceremonies were completed, the little princess would be married into Prince Yong's Palace.

As soon as this incident came out, the entire capital was in an uproar.

"Marry? This is the first time I've heard of a princess getting married."

"The Emperor is too partial to Prince Yong's Mansion. She is a princess, how can she marry someone else?"

The people were talking a lot, and even the ministers in the court looked at King Yong a little strangely. It was true that King Yong made his fortune through military exploits, but for the royal family to say these words, it broke the rules.

More importantly, the emperor has expressed his stance, so why is there no movement at all from Prince Yong's Mansion?

For two days in a row, King Yong was targeted by the ministers in the court, and he simply claimed to be ill and would not go to court again. However, this did not stop the public opinion. After a lot of back and forth, King Yong could only agree to the marriage.

Just as the wedding was getting ready in Prince Yong's Mansion, there was a visitor in front of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Song Shuwan looked at Princess Jingyang who had taken off her hood in front of her, and frowned slightly: "Princess, if you come here at this time, you will be in trouble if there is an accident."

Princess Jingyang gritted her teeth: "If I don't come here, wouldn't I be angry to death?"

Song Shuwan sighed: "I know the princess is very angry, but has the princess forgotten what I said before?"

Princess Jingyang's eyes widened instantly: "This princess..."

Song Shuwan looked at her quietly without saying anything.

Time passed, and Princess Jingyang tilted her head: "I am so angry."

Song Shuwan patted her hand: "I can understand the princess's anger, but as the saying goes, a small impatience will ruin a big plan. Don't you want the princess to succeed?"

"But……"

Princess Jingyang was still a little reluctant, but this time, Song Shuwan didn't give her a chance to finish her words.

"It's getting late, princess, it's time for you to return to your residence."

The two people's eyes met, and Princess Jingyang opened her mouth. After a long time, she nodded: "I understand, princess."

Song Shuwan put on her hood and said in a gentle tone: "Don't worry, I will definitely make the princess get her wish."

After sending Princess Jingyang away, Song Shuwan turned around and sent Fei Yuan to keep an eye on Prince Yong's Mansion. The marriage between the little princess and Xie Youxing was planned by all parties. If the little princess didn't give in, would Xie Youxing just give in?

The answer is of course no, so Xie Youxing will definitely have some movement in the near future, and the size of the movement will depend on the attitude of Prince Yong.

Fei Yuan left for only two hours before he turned back with shock on his face.

"Prince Concubine, Xie Youxing, Xie Youxing ran away from marriage. He left the capital directly with his guards."

"What?"

Song Shuwan was shocked and asked quickly: "Does Prince Yong know about this?"

Fei Yuan shook his head: "Prince Yong's Mansion is still preparing for the marriage. If he knew about it, it would be impossible for Xie Youxing to leave the capital smoothly."

Song Shuwan didn't expect this accident at all. After thinking about it for a while, she asked Fei Yuan to send news to Pei Huan.

"You must ensure that the Crown Prince knows about this."
