"Understood, please step back."
The secret guard was driven away. Song Shuwan hesitated for a moment, but still asked about Pei Huan's recent whereabouts.
Pei Huan didn't hide it and told her directly: "I'm going to arrest Prince Ning."
After a pause, he added: "With King Yong."
Song Shuwan was silent. It turned out that the news she had received earlier was true.
After a long silence, she sighed: "The Crown Prince has made a lot of arrangements, but I would like to ask, are the Crown Prince's arrangements also for the west side of the city?"
"I will not make fun of the people of Dazhou." Pei Huan said in a slightly solemn tone, "Even the criminals who were sent here are also the people of Dazhou."
Song Shuwan's hands hanging by her legs loosened slightly. It would be better if Pei Huan didn't specially arrange things in Chengxi.
She put away her thoughts and said softly: "A few of the assassins outside should be alive. The prince should ask the secret guards to interrogate her. By the way, I also caught Po Hong Po. Do you want to see her?" "
Pei Huan nodded: "We really want to see her, do you want to come with us?"
Song Shuwan thought about it for a while, but still refused: "Po Hong may not tell the truth when she sees me. The prince can go alone."
Hearing this, Pei Huan looked deeply at Song Shuwan and called the secret guards to leave.
That night, Pei Huan placed a letter in front of Song Shuwan: "I got this letter from Po Hong."
Song Shuwan was having dinner and was stunned for a moment when she heard this. Then she opened the letter. The letter mentioned King Yong and King Ning, and also mentioned another place - Qingyun Mountain.
"Qingyun Mountain belongs to Prince Ning?"
She raised her head in surprise, and as soon as she finished asking, she frowned: "How could Qingyun Mountain belong to Prince Ning? That side is not..."
Pei Huan interrupted her: "From the information I found, Qingyun Mountain does belong to Prince Ning."
Song Shuwan lowered her voice: "But the prince didn't mention this to me before."
"Because I don't think it's necessary. The matter in Qingyun Mountain is very involved. It's not a good thing for you to be involved. What's more... the matter in Qingyun Mountain has nothing to do with you."
Song Shuwan pursed her lips. Pei Huan was right, but listening to her, she just felt that his words were harsh.
At this time, Pei Huan said, "Are you unhappy?"
Song Shuwan twitched her lips: "Your Majesty, you are joking. How could I be unhappy about this? I'm just surprised. There are Tatars involved behind Qingyun Mountain. If it belongs to Prince Ning, doesn't it mean..."
The words suddenly paused, and Song Shuwan's eyes widened: "Prince Ning has betrayed Zhou a long time ago? Why?"
"People's hearts are greedy. Prince Ning must be planning something by doing this."
"What are you planning?" Song Shuwan murmured in a low voice, "His status is already high enough. The emperor usually treats him with tolerance. Even the laws of the Zhou Dynasty are useless to him. What else is he dissatisfied with?"
Pei Huan sighed and repeated what he said again.
"The human heart is greedy."
Song Shuwan was silent, where was Prince Ning's greed? Is it possible that he still wants to sit on that dragon chair?
Thinking of this, Song Shuwan instantly raised her head: "Prince Ning wants the throne?"
Pei Huan smiled and said nothing.
Seeing this, Song Shuwan knew that this was not something that could be discussed.
The stars outside are twinkling, and the stars in winter are filled with an indescribable chill, just like the coldness in Ningyuan City.
The next day, when Song Shuwan was thinking about it with a medical book, Dark Three appeared.
"Prince Concubine, Grandma Hong wants to see you."
Song Shuwan turned over the medical book and paused: "Does the Crown Prince know?"
"You know, the prince is over there."
Hearing this, Song Shuwan threw away the medical book and followed An San to see Po Hong.
The woodshed was very dark. Song Shuwan saw Pei Huan on the side and smelled the smell of blood, which made her feel a sense of oppression inexplicably.
But she quickly put her thoughts away and asked, "I heard that you want to see me, but do you have something to tell me?"
Hong Po was tied to a wooden frame, covered in blood. She raised her head slightly after hearing this: "There is indeed something I want to tell the Crown Princess, and I would like to ask the Crown Princess to come closer."
Her voice was very weak, and she looked like she might die at any moment, which made Song Shuwan frown unconsciously.
At this moment, Pei Huan said, "She won't get close to you. If you have any questions, just tell her."
Hong Po shook her head: "I will never say anything unless the Crown Princess comes close."
Pei Huan's eyes were slightly cold: "Really? Then let me see how big your mouth is..."
"Your Majesty."
Song Shuwan interrupted Pei Huan. After a brief pause, she said, "I think I have the right to decide whether to approach him."
Hearing this, Pei Huan frowned: "Are you sure you want to get close to her?"
Song Shuwan smiled slightly: "I want to know what she wants to tell me."
After saying this, she stepped towards Po Hong. After the distance between the two narrowed, Song Shuwan leaned forward slightly: "Is this distance enough now?"
Po Hong nodded: "That's enough. I want to ask the Crown Princess, do you believe Crown Prince Pei?"
Song Shuwan was stunned: "Why do you ask this?"
Hong Po tilted her head slightly and looked at Pei Huan from the side: "If you don't believe Prince Pei, then let everyone here go out. What I want to say can only be known to the Crown Prince."
First let her get close, and now let her drive everyone out? This Hong Po was clearly testing her bottom line and trying to push her further.
Song Shuwan frowned and was about to retreat when she heard Pei Huan say: "Everyone, please exit."
The people around him did not hesitate, bowed and left the woodshed directly. Immediately afterwards, Pei Huan let An San push him away. There was only a soft "bang" sound, and only Song Shuwan and Hong Po were left in the woodshed.
Silence spread, and Song Shuwan stared at Po Hong with her eyes. To be honest, she no longer believed in Po Hong when Po Hong took advantage of her. But since Pei Huan was so cooperative, she could only cooperate with Po Hong first.
After putting her thoughts away, Song Shuwan said, "Everyone has gone out, what do you want to tell me?"
"The Song family's case is related to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion."
Hong Po lowered her eyes, covering up the flash of light in her eyes.
Song Shuwan's eyes were cold: "What do you mean?"
Hong Po took a deep breath: "The Crown Princess knows what I mean, there's no need to pretend to be stupid."
Song Shuwan sneered: "Pretending to be stupid? Why should I pretend to be stupid with you? Po Hong Po, you don't think that I will doubt Pei Huan just based on your words, do you?"
Regardless of whether it was Dingyuan Marquis or Pei Huan, no matter what they were, it was impossible for them to be related to the Song family a few years ago.
Hong Po raised her eyes: "Is the Crown Princess really not suspicious? As far as I know, the Crown Prince is close to Prince Pei in order to find out the case of the Song family and clear the grievances of the Song family, right?"
Song Shuwan took two steps back: "This matter is basically known to everyone."
The implication was that Hong Po didn’t need to say more.
Hong Po chuckled softly: "But don't you think, Concubine Shi, that the Song family's case is progressing too slowly? With the status of Prince Pei, if he really wants to reverse the case for the Song family, he only needs to say a word to the emperor, but Why is there now... no news at all?"
