Song Shuwan was stunned and subconsciously looked to the side.
Pei Huan frowned: "Zhen Yuan, what exactly do you want to do?"
Zhen Yuan frowned: "I said, I just want to see if Prince Pei will continue to defend Miss Song. Miss Song, do you dare to accept this letter?"
"Why not?"
Song Shuwan asked back, taking the letter and opening it. Before she could read the content clearly, a hand suddenly stretched out from beside her.
"Ignore her, I will stand by your side no matter what happens."
Pei Huan tore up the letter and called someone to see off the guest.
At this time, the atmosphere in the hall quickly became solemn, but Zhen Yuan seemed to be aloof from the incident, not affected by the surrounding atmosphere at all.
She walked to Pei Huan's side with a smile and put a hand on the man's shoulder: "Prince Pei, don't be so angry. After all, we have joined forces, so why should we have a quarrel?"
With a "pop" sound, Pei Huan slapped her hand away with a cold expression: "Stay away from me, and get out!"
Zhen Yuan sighed and slowly rubbed the area where he was photographed: "Prince Pei's words are really chilling. That's all. Prince Ning, the master here doesn't welcome us, so let's not be an eyesore here. Let's go. .”
Prince Ning's eyes flashed with displeasure, but he didn't say a word. Instead, he slowly stood up and wanted to leave with Zhen Yuan.
Song Shuwan caught a glimpse of his behavior and was quite shocked. When did Prince Ning listen to Zhen Yuan?
But she had no chance to ask, because Zhen Yuan and Prince Ning walked very neatly without any pause.
"Your Majesty, just now Prince Ning..."
Song Shuwan tried to speak, but before she could finish speaking, she saw Pei Huan raising his hand. Seeing this, she immediately stopped what she said.
Pei Huan said: "Zhen Yuan should have a handle on Prince Ning, otherwise he would not listen."
"Will this situation affect the crown prince's arrangement?"
"Yes, but we won't know the details until later."
Pei Huan's expression was very solemn, Song Shuwan saw it in her eyes, hesitated several times, and finally remained silent.
After a while, Pei Huan left.
Song Shuwan thought for a while, then turned and returned to the room.
Unexpectedly, within half an hour, Qinglian suddenly appeared: "Miss, the Crown Prince asked me to take you to a place."
Song Shuwan was startled: "Going to a place? Where?"
"The lady will know when she arrives."
Song Shuwan frowned, what's the point of selling this?
She tried to ask, but Qinglian made it clear that she would not elaborate now, so Song Shuwan had no choice but to leave with her.
Half an hour later, Song Shuwan entered an inn and noticed something was wrong before she could stand still. However, when she turned around, she found that the door behind her was closed, and Qinglian was standing by the door smiling at her.
Song Shuwan's face darkened: "Qinglian, what do you mean? Where is the prince?"
"I would like to ask Miss Song to meet someone."
Qinglian raised her head and looked to the other side.
Song Shuwan followed her gaze and her heart sank instantly. It was Zhen Yuan and Prince Ning.
Zhen Yuan leaned on the railing on the second floor and waved to her: "Miss Song, we meet again."
Song Shuwan: "..."
To be honest, the people she least wanted to see right now were these two people, but she had no choice but to leave now and could only face them calmly.
Sighing secretly, Song Shuwan took the initiative to walk to the second floor.
They had only been away from Villa for an hour. What on earth did Zhen Yuan and Prince Ning want to do? Is it possible, or do you want to ask a few questions?
With such doubts, she stood opposite Zhen Yuan and Prince Ning, and said calmly: "If you want to threaten Pei Huan with me, you are wrong. He will not be threatened."
Zhen Yuan frowned: "I didn't say I wanted to threaten Prince Pei with you. Miss Song, we are half friends, right? How can you miss me so much?"
Song Shuwan was silent. Judging from the methods Zhen Yuan used on her, she didn't think the two could be considered good friends.
"Miss Zhen, stop talking nonsense and tell the truth. What exactly do you want to do?"
"It's very simple. I want to enter the palace. I just need Miss Song to help me enter the palace."
Song Shuwan quickly refused: "I won't help you."
"Why? For Miss Song, this matter is just a piece of cake."
"Bringing you into the palace is indeed a piece of cake, but what you have to do will affect my life. The Song family's case has not been settled yet, and I don't want to risk my life with you."
Song Shuwan spoke frankly and even tried to persuade her in return. However, before her words of persuasion could be spoken, she was blocked by Zhen Yuan.
"The case of your Song family has not been settled yet, and the lives of my Zhen family have not been settled yet. Miss Song, our goals are actually the same. Why do you keep rejecting me? As long as you let go, both of us can achieve it. Wouldn’t it be better if you wish?”
Song Shuwan: "..."
Can all achieve what they want?
She sneered: "Miss Zhen, do you think I am a three-year-old child? Can you mislead me with just a few words?"
Zhen Yuan sighed: "I didn't mean that."
"I don't care what you mean, but I will never help you here."
Song Shuwan said and was about to leave.
The next moment, two guards stood in front of her.
Zhen Yuan said calmly: "You have only one choice today. If you don't agree, I can only let you die here."
Song Shuwan twitched her lips: "Miss Zhen just said that we are half-friends, and then she turns around and wants to kill me?"
Zhen Yuan looked calm: "I just want to settle the grievances of my Zhen family. For this reason, let alone a friend, even you..."
"boom!"
Just then, there was a loud noise downstairs.
Several people looked around and saw a group of people rushing up to the second floor.
Zhen Yuan grabbed Song Shuwan without thinking, but the next moment, the person walking up from the stairs made her stunned.
"father?"
That's right, it was Zhen Rong, Zhen Yuan's father, who appeared on the second floor.
"it's me."
Zhen Rong's face was complicated, and his eyes swept over several people before finally landing on Zhen Yuan: "Are you sure you want to threaten me with her?"
Zhen Yuan gritted his teeth: "Dad, I just want to kill the emperor and avenge the death of more than a hundred members of the Zhen family. Why do you want to stop me?"
Zhen Rong sighed: "It's okay if you want revenge, but you shouldn't involve innocent people. Let Miss Song go. If you really want to enter the palace, I will take you there."
Zhen Yuan sneered and tightened his hand: "I won't believe you, dad. You and Pei Huan are too close. There is no way he will allow me to enter the palace."
Zhen Rong frowned: "Do you insist on killing the emperor? Even if he is already dead, do you still want to do it yourself?"
Silence fell in the inn.
Zhen Yuan's expression changed a lot: "He's going to die soon? What do you mean? The emperor is going to die?"
At this time, Song Shuwan said: "I diagnosed the emperor's pulse earlier, and he didn't have much time to live. Miss Zhen, I can understand your desire for revenge, but for a dying person, you must take your own Life?"
