An San was stunned by the sudden change of topic. He hesitated and said, "It's not that there is nothing we can do. It's just that, young lady, the prince may not be in danger now."
Song Shuwan narrowed her eyes and understood the meaning of An San's words almost instantly: "Does he have other plans?"
An San coughed lightly: "This, my subordinates just have some vague guesses."
Song Shuwan: "..."
It’s a guess, but it’s actually something that’s certain.
"Just back off."
An San saluted and exited the room.
Song Shuwan stared at her fingers, and after a while, she injected herself with acupuncture to suppress the toxin.
Not long after, Qinglian came in and said, "Something happened in the palace. Do you want to go take a look, Miss?"
Song Shuwan pulled out the golden needle and put it away carefully: "I won't go."
"Young lady, aren't you worried that matters in the palace will involve you?"
"Isn't this obvious?"
Song Shuwan asked back, looking at Qinglian with a slightly strange look. Prince Ning had arrested Pei Huan and was most likely going to send him to the palace. If something happened in the palace at this time, it would definitely have something to do with Pei Huan.
She didn't say it clearly, but Qinglian had already guessed what she was thinking, and couldn't help but sigh: "In the past, the prince always said that the young lady is smart, but I still don't agree with it. Now that I think about it, the prince's praise is indeed true."
Song Shuwan's mouth twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything. She just waved her hand to let Qinglian leave: "I want to rest."
Qinglian took out a porcelain bottle: "Miss, don't you want to detoxify?"
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room fell into stasis.
Song Shuwan stared at the porcelain bottle and clenched her fingers: "Are you the one who poisoned me?"
Qinglian shook the porcelain bottle: "What did the young lady say? The poison on your body was in Prince Ning's palace. What does it have to do with me?"
"Ah!"
Song Shuwan sneered. What Qinglian said was very reasonable, but she didn't think that a person who said there was nothing he could do before could turn around and come up with the antidote.
Unless, this antidote is fake.
Thinking of this, Song Shuwan lowered her eyes and uttered two words in a cold tone: "Get out."
Qinglian raised her eyebrows: "Miss, don't you want the antidote?"
"I don't dare to eat it."
Song Shuwan threw down five words and turned her back to Qinglian.
Seeing this, Qinglian sighed: "Since the lady doesn't want it, Qinglian can't force it, so she can only leave with this porcelain vase."
When Song Shuwan heard the door closing, she turned around with a frown, but the next moment, her expression changed.
"Qinglian, what do you mean?"
Qinglian, who was about to leave, was still in the room with a slight smile on her lips, but Song Shuwan could see the danger in her expression.
The next moment, Qinglian spoke: "Qinglian doesn't like the young lady's choice, so she wants to make another choice for the young lady."
Song Shuwan ran to the side without thinking, but she was no match for Qinglian, and was caught by Qinglian in just a few seconds.
She asked angrily: "Qinglian, if you attack me, Pei Huan will not let you go."
Qinglian held up the porcelain bottle and said indifferently: "I don't need the prince to let me go. Don't worry, I will spare your life. At most, I will make you... unable to move."
Song Shuwan tilted her head and closed her mouth tightly. What was the difference between being unable to move and dying?
Regret flashed in Qinglian's eyes: "Miss, please don't work in vain, I have many ways..."
"boom!"
The closed door was suddenly kicked open, An San led someone in with a cold face, and asked sternly: "Qinglian, how dare you do something bad to the lady, do you want to die?"
Qinglian snorted coldly, not panicking due to the sudden change, and stretched out her hand to pinch Song Shuwan's neck.
An San was anxious: "Let go of Miss!"
The feeling of suffocation made Song Shuwan roll her eyes. She struggled hard, but couldn't break away for a long time.
As time passed, she gradually lost consciousness, and a question flashed in her mind, why hasn't the dark third made a move yet?
The next moment, air suddenly appeared. Song Shuwan covered her neck and coughed uncontrollably.
An San roared angrily: "Qinglian, are you worthy of the Crown Prince's trust in you? Go to hell!"
In the chaos, Song Shuwan was helped to the door.
Qinglian fought with An San and quickly retreated.
"An San, if you stop me today, you will definitely regret it in the future."
An San said coldly: "I don't care what happens in the future, but I must stop you today, Qinglian, Miss Qinglian has never done anything to you, why did you attack her?"
Qinglian smiled, her eyes full of coldness: "She did not do anything to me, but her influence on the prince was too great. I must minimize this influence, so... she must die."
Must die?
Song Shuwan was startled. Didn't Qinglian just say that she couldn't move?
"It's a pity that you didn't succeed. You are the one who must die today."
An San was really angry and chased Qinglian all the way, beating her out of the window soon.
Song Shuwan stood there, her expression flickering several times, but she finally pursed her lips and remained silent.
"Wait, everyone, please step aside."
"yes."
The people around him retreated.
After hesitating for a moment, Song Shuwan went to the next room, and then waited for half an hour before An San turned around dejectedly.
"What, no one was caught?"
"That Qinglian has too many tricks. My subordinates have tried their best, but they still can't keep her."
Song Shuwan pinched her eyebrows: "If you haven't caught it, then you haven't caught it. Let's go explore the situation in the palace and see..."
Before she could finish speaking, a male voice came over.
"No need to go and find out."
Song Shuwan stood up instantly and was a little surprised to see Pei Huan at the door, but she felt it was normal.
"You're back."
Pei Huan nodded, and after entering the room, he waved away An San: "I heard something happened here, is it okay?"
Song Shuwan smiled: "It's not a big problem."
Pei Huan's eyes darkened: "I know what happened, don't worry, I will explain it to you from Qinglian."
The next day, when Pei Huan appeared again, he had Qinglian with him.
"Kneel down."
Just two words, Song Shuwan was stunned on the spot.
The next moment, Qinglian knelt in front of her: "What happened yesterday was my fault, please forgive me, Miss."
Song Shuwan looked at her expressionlessly: "Where's the antidote?"
Qinglian raised her head and took out a porcelain bottle from her arms: "The antidote is in it."
Song Shuwan nodded, then threw the porcelain bottle on the ground after taking it.
The pills rolled down, and Song Shuwan said very calmly: "I told you yesterday that I don't dare to take the antidote you gave me."
Qinglian stared at the pills on the ground: "If the lady doesn't dare to take them, why should they?"
Song Shuwan raised her lips: "Because I want to make you unhappy."
At this point, she glanced at Pei Huan: "Don't think that I don't know why you came here, but unfortunately, what you have done here cannot be revealed with just an apology."
Qinglian was speechless, but Pei Huan understood the meaning of her words.
"You're blaming me."
Song Shuwan shook her head and was about to speak when a knock on the door suddenly came from outside.
"Your Majesty, something happened in the palace."
