There was a hint of temptation in Song Shuwan's words. She didn't want Prince Ning to live here. After all, Prince Ning had a special status. No one knew what would happen suddenly in the future. It was safest to keep some distance from Prince Ning.
"Is it not suitable, or does Miss Song want to distance herself from me?"
Prince Ning saw Song Shuwan's concerns at a glance and spoke out directly.
Such a situation made Song Shuwan a little embarrassed.
"Prince Ning is joking. This is an inn. You can stay here if you want. I have no right to interfere."
"Since you know you have no right to ask, why are you still standing here? Where is the steward of the inn?"
Song Shuwan immediately called the guard outside the door. After giving instructions, the steward of the inn quickly appeared.
"I've met the prince. I wonder what his instructions are?"
When Prince Ning told him about staying at the inn, cold sweat broke out on the steward's forehead.
"Logically speaking, if Prince Ning wants to live there, I should arrange it for you, but, just..."
Song Shuwan slowly answered: "It's just that there's no suitable yard here, right?"
The steward nodded, and then carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Prince Ning snorted coldly: "Then free up a suitable courtyard. I think there should be no one with a higher status than me here, right?"
Less than half an hour later, the sixth prince appeared in the hall in a wheelchair.
"I've met the emperor's uncle."
Prince Ning glanced at him: "What's the matter?"
"Nothing, I just heard that the emperor's uncle was here, so I came over to take a look."
The sixth prince smiled, as if he really just came to take a look.
But Song Shuwan on the side knew that the sixth prince came here for the courtyard, because the best courtyard in the inn was the one where the sixth prince lived.
At this moment, Prince Ning directly revealed the true purpose of the Sixth Prince's visit: "You are here to take back the courtyard, right? You don't think I should want your courtyard, right?"
The smile on the Sixth Prince's face froze. He had never expected that Prince Ning would tear apart the superficial cover like this.
"The emperor is joking. There is no right or wrong. What the emperor wants, how can I not give it to him?"
Prince Ning sneered, too lazy to talk to the sixth prince, and waved him away.
Seeing this, Song Shuwan immediately followed and left.
After leaving the hall, Song Shuwan turned her head slightly and said, "Your Highness, Sixth Prince, is feeling annoyed?"
The sixth prince did not answer but asked: "Isn't it right?"
Song Shuwan raised her eyebrows and said, "Yes, how can I not? It's just that I don't think His Highness the Sixth Prince needs to take a courtyard too seriously. It's just a place to live. No matter what the situation, it's only used for sleeping."
Having said this, Song Shuwan gave up her yard: "If His Highness the Sixth Prince doesn't mind, you can live in my yard, and I will go back and have people move things."
The sixth prince's eyes flickered, but he did not reject Song Shuwan's proposal.
An hour later, Song Shuwan moved into a small courtyard.
As soon as we settled in, Shanhai turned around with a sullen face.
"Miss, Prince Pei did not return to Lin Yujun's camp after leaving the inn."
Song Shuwan's eyes narrowed: "Where has he gone?"
"Prince Ning's residence."
Song Shuwan tightened her fingers. She felt uneasy for some reason. Pei Huan left an hour and a half ago. According to the time, he should not have met Prince Ning.
But why did he go to see Prince Ning? And did Prince Ning come here to avoid him?
Guesses swirled in Song Shuwan's mind. She pinched her eyebrows and asked, "Where is he now?"
"Still at Prince Ning's residence."
Song Shuwan's heart suddenly sank, and she raised her voice and asked the guard outside: "Go and see, has Prince Ning left the inn?"
Not long after, the guard turned around and said, "Prince Ning went to the courtyard where His Highness the Sixth Prince was before and has not yet left the inn."
Hearing this, Song Shuwan immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "You continue to keep an eye on people, I will go find Prince Ning now."
After leaving the words, Song Shuwan went straight to the courtyard where the sixth prince lived before, and then met Prince Ning at the entrance of the courtyard who came out.
Their eyes met, Song Shuwan said with a smile: "I have met Prince Ning."
Prince Ning looked at her with interest: "You didn't avoid it just now, so why did you come to me again?"
Song Shuwan laughed dryly: "Your Majesty, you misunderstood. I was just in a hurry to go back and pack my luggage. I didn't avoid you specifically. By the way, it's been more than an hour, but Prince Ning will..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was startled by the sudden approach of Prince Ning and took a few steps back.
"Ning, what is Prince Ning?"
Prince Ning opened his fan, and the smile in his eyes was somewhat meaningful: "Miss Song does not need to be so afraid of me. After all, in my opinion, Miss Song is not worthy of my calculations."
Song Shuwan reluctantly raised her lips. She didn't believe what King Ning said. If it wasn't to hold him back, she wouldn't have come here at this time.
"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. Miss Song still has something to do. If nothing happens, I will leave first. You know, I have to make a lot of preparations to live in this inn."
Prince Ning left a meaningful remark and passed by Song Shuwan.
A gust of wind blew by, and Song Shuwan clenched her fingers slightly. When she turned around, Prince Ning had long disappeared behind her.
At this moment, a man in black clothes walked out of the yard.
"I've met Miss Song."
Song Shuwan came back to her senses and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"
"This subordinate is the bodyguard beside the prince. He is responsible for guarding the gate of the courtyard for the prince. You can just call your subordinate Hua Lin."
Hualin was very respectful, but Song Shuwan felt inexplicably that there seemed to be some awe hidden in his words.
Are the guards around Prince Ning in awe of her?
Song Shuwan frowned slightly. This must be her illusion, right?
After gathering her thoughts, she chatted with Hualin for a few words, then turned and left.
Song Shuwan didn't notice that behind her, Hualin had been staring at her figure, his eyes full of interest.
That night, just as Song Shuwan was about to fall asleep, she heard a commotion outside. After listening carefully, she realized that there was a problem with the Sixth Prince.
"A group of assassins suddenly appeared over there. His Highness, Sixth Prince, was unprotected and almost died on the spot."
On the way Song Shuwan hurried over, there were guards who kept telling her the situation. When she saw the sixth prince, she looked around and found that his face was just a little pale, but there was nothing unusual about him. She finally let go of her worries after worrying all the way.
At this time, the Sixth Prince also calmed down, thanked Song Shuwan first, and then asked someone to bring the assassin up.
Song Shuwan was surprised: "Your Highness, Sixth Prince, has caught the assassin?"
The sixth prince nodded, with a hint of fear on his pale face: "There is a secret guard beside me, specially arranged by my father. Thanks to him today, Miss Song can see me alive, otherwise... "
"The assassins in Anyuan City are bolder than those in Beijing."
A casual voice came. Song Shuwan followed the sound and found that it was Queen Ning, and her expression changed slightly.
"Prince Ning heard the news and came here. I wonder what Prince Ning thinks of what happened tonight?"
