Bondage

"Your Majesty even summoned Miss into the palace, but for the Fifth Prince's business?"

"Probably not."

Song Wan pinched the handkerchief, feeling a little strange too.

"Brother said that His Majesty sent someone to inspect carefully, and the fifth prince was indeed killed accidentally. Neither the prince nor the aunt, there is no need to attack the fifth prince now, so calling me into the palace today should be something else."

Song Wan pursed her lips: "I just don't know why."

Heng Zhi said: "Miss, there is no need to worry, it should not be an important matter."

He chose a cherry red floral dress from the closet, just as Heng Zhi was about to change for Song Wan, she shook her head: "Change into something more elegant."

"There is a funeral in the palace. Although the fifth prince does not hold funerals when he is young, we are not good at showing off."

After changing into the goose-yellow cloak and moon-white dress, Song Wan got into the carriage that Changping came to pick him up.

Song Yuning had been waiting for her in Changxin Palace early in the morning, and when she saw someone coming over, she couldn't help smiling and praising her for what she was wearing today.

After saying a few words, Concubine Yun smiled lightly and said, "My aunt is also entrusted by someone today, and someone wants to see you."

Song Wan was puzzled, and was about to ask, when Song Yuning spoke again: "Let him tell you by himself."

Signaling Hengzhi to leave with him, Song Wan was the only one left in the whole courtyard.

Not knowing what was going on right now, she heard someone coughing lightly.

Wearing the prince's regular clothes, Shen Qianyu walked up to Song Wan in a few steps, and Song Wan's expression changed several times as he looked at his face.

"See Prince..."

As soon as she was about to kneel down, she was supported by Shen Qianyu, preventing her from kneeling down.

Song Wan took a step back, but still knelt down: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Get up, girl."

As soon as Shen Qianyu moved forward, Song Wan stood up and continued to take a step back.

She lowered her head slightly, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking, but Shen Qianyu knew that she was annoyed.

"I didn't intend to deceive. In fact, I could only live as Jirong in the palace before, so that the girl could misunderstand. And I have never had the heart to play tricks on girls. You must not think of me like that."

Knowing that Song Wan was uncomfortable, Shen Qianyu took the initiative to distance the two of them.

Song Wan still lowered his head and remained silent, letting him explain alone.

"I know that what I did wrong was not done by a gentleman, but at the time it was forced by the situation, and there was really no other way to do it, girl."

Hearing his evasive words, Song Wan felt ashamed.

It is not only impolite for the prince to interact with her as a servant, but also... disrespectful.

Holding the veil tightly, Song Wan blushed with anger, and it took him a long time to say: "I don't know why the prince called the minister's daughter into the palace?"

Shen Qianyu's eyes darkened, knowing that if today, the two of them would never be able to return to the past.

But he is not a person who admits defeat easily, on the contrary, the more frustrated he becomes, the more courageous he becomes.Seeing Song Wan resisting his closeness, Shen Qianyu's expression became serious: "The reason I am looking for a girl here today is because I want to make a deal with her."

"What deal?"

Song Wan frowned slightly, Fang raised his head to look at the prince.

"A deal that kills two birds with one stone."

Putting his hands behind his back, Shen Qianyu secretly let out a breath to relieve the tension and embarrassment in his heart.It's just that he pretended to be calm and steady, quite human.

"I want the girl to enter the East Palace..."

Song Wan was about to refute, but he raised his hand to interrupt the other party: "Miss, listen to Ben Gong first."

"Although I had to conceal my identity to deceive the girl before, I have never had any ill intentions towards you or the Song family."

Seeing that her expression seemed to be moved, Shen Qianyu continued: "Miss, I also know that I have been hostage to Nanqing since I was a child, not to mention reading and writing and knowing how to advance and retreat, even reading a few literary papers is quite strenuous..."

"So I need someone by my side, someone who has the ability to assist me, who has a calm personality and can help me preserve the face of the royal family."

"I feel that Miss Song's character and knowledge are sufficient for the job."

Shen Qianyu saw that her expression was becoming more and more relaxed, so she couldn't help but hurriedly followed: "I have no intention of using power to bully and threaten girls. I have collected several talented and virtuous daughters in Shangjing, but I really can't let go of my guard and approach her." They can't trust them as much as they trust girls."

In a hurry to express his sincerity to her, Shen Qianyu murmured: "After thinking about it, a girl is the most suitable."

Song Wan's eyebrows furrowed indiscernibly for a moment.

"Of course, I will not let the girl be wronged in vain."

Shen Qianyu stood up and took a step forward: "If the girl is willing to enter the East Palace, I will promise her in the future."

Song Wan's eyes widened in surprise.

"This statement is sincere, and there is no deceit."

Seeing that Song Wan was unmoved, Shen Qianyu said: "You don't have to be surprised, this is a deal between my palace and the Song family."

"Song Family?"

Song Wan pursed her lips and believed his words.

If it wasn't for getting through with the family, the aunt would not have arranged for the prince to meet her.

And father...wouldn't reject the prince's proposal at all.

The girl's eyebrows were slightly raised, Shen Qianyu's heart softened, and she coaxed softly: "I respect the girl's education and wealth, and I really can't bear that the girl will end up in a mediocre life just because she was entrusted to someone who was not human."

"If the girl enters the East Palace, it will only be beneficial to your elder brother or to Concubine Yun."

Sure enough, when Song Fu and Song Yuning were mentioned, the wariness in Song Wan's eyes instantly faded, and her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was already thinking about how to act in order to seek the best interests for her brother and aunt.

Shen Qianyu smiled faintly, feeling both helpless and distressed.

I feel sorry for her until now, and she never planned a day for herself.Feeling sorry for her, she only heard that entering the East Palace was beneficial to the Song family, so she put aside the difficulties she might encounter in the harem, and devoted herself to thinking about how to help Song to help Song Yuning.

Stretching out a hand, Shen Qianyu took it back just as he reached it in front of Song Wan.

Almost, almost couldn't control himself to stroke her hair.

With a light cough, Shen Qianyu put his hands behind his back.

"When you enter the East Palace in the future, you and Concubine Yun can see each other all day long, and before the third prince grants you a fief, you can also take care of him closely."

"When Song Fu gets married in the future, the British government will not dare to take advantage of the Eldest Princess to despise him."

Song Wan was silent for a long time, then pinched the handkerchief and said: "My identity cannot enter the East Palace."

Shen Qianyu took a breath: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have everything to do with me. As long as the girl agrees to enter the East Palace, I will find a solution for everything else."

"It's just that you may have wronged the girl one or two before, and the rank of entering the palace should not be too high."

Song Wan shook her head: "It's all up to His Highness to arrange."

Now that she is remarried, she probably won't say anything that can help her aunt and elder brother's marriage.Being able to enter the East Palace now will add a little help to the family in the future, which is already an unexpected joy.

Shen Qianyu heard the words, and said in an urgent tone: "Miss, don't worry, don't worry... I will definitely arrange it properly, and nothing will go wrong!"
