Yan Qingning turned her eyes, raised her eyebrows and looked at her, and said slowly: "Concubine Cheng, you can't say anything careless. Any accusation requires evidence. Without evidence, it is slander."

Cheng Wanshuang was a little stunned...

She saw Yan Qingning being tortured and suppressed by Yan Xiwei.

Sometimes she couldn't help but feel sympathy for Yan Qingning, but at the same time she felt a little disappointed with her, thinking that Yan Qingning was weak and useless.

If it were her, she would have died together with Yan Xiwei long ago.

But now she realized that she had underestimated Yan Qingning. She had done everything, not only did she get away with it, but she also got such a big benefit, and yet she could still divert the blame to her.

"Haha, it turns out that the dog that bites doesn't bark." Cheng Wanshuang's eyes became sharper and she said through gritted teeth.

"It's mutual. Fortunately, I was vigilant. But I didn't do anything to you, Concubine Cheng. Instead, it was Concubine Cheng who secretly fanned the flames." Yan Qingning looked innocent. "To be honest, although I love peace, my principle has always been that if I am good, then everyone else will be good."

Cheng Wanshuang: “…”

How could she not hear Yan Qingning's implication that she was barefoot and not afraid of those who wore shoes, and if she didn't have a good life, no one else would have a good life.

Things have come to this point, Cheng Wanshuang had to weigh the pros and cons. Even if she went to explain to Yan Xiwei, Yan Xiwei would not believe her.

And Yan Xiwei is so conceited that once she suspects her, she will never let her go.

Instead of this, cooperating with Yan Qingning is the most advantageous option for her.

In this way, if Yan Qingning could help her overthrow Yan Xiwei and help her ascend to the throne, it would be a blessing in disguise.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Wanshuang finally raised her eyebrows and asked tentatively: "What do you want? You don't want to be the Princess of Qing, do you?"

When she said this, she couldn't help laughing.

In the past, Yan Qingning would not have been questioned even if she had been the Crown Princess.

Under the current circumstances, it would take several lifetimes of hard work for her to become a prince's concubine.

"I just want a peaceful life." Yan Qingning looked at Cheng Wanshuang, with a faint smile in her eyes that showed she understood everything that was going on in the other person's mind. "Does Concubine Cheng believe me when I say this?"

Cheng Wanshuang's thoughts were almost written all over her face. Yan Qingning could tell without even guessing that she was determined to get the position of Princess Qing.

But she would have to kill Yan Xiwei first before she would have that chance.

That's why she was so straightforward.

"So what does Sister Ning think of the prince? She also admires him, right?" Cheng Wanshuang was not relieved at all after hearing her words.

Yan Qingning's appearance was too offensive and had an absolute advantage. Even she, who never judged people by their appearance, felt a strong sense of crisis every time she saw Yan Qingning.

How many men can resist the temptation of beauty?

So, from the beginning to the end, Cheng Wanshuang felt that Yan Qingning was a strong rival.

Yan Qingning has not yet adapted to her current appearance, so she doesn't care about her current beauty at all.

Cheng Wanshuang's question made her suddenly smile, "Does my likes and dislikes matter? Concubine Cheng has time to treat me as an imaginary enemy. It's more important to think about how to make a man fall in love with you.

Moreover, do you think King Qing, who is known for his decisiveness in killing, is a superficial man?"

"It's important. It's very important to me. I have admired the prince for a long time. In this life, I just want to stay by his side, even if I am willing to be his slave." Cheng Wanshuang's eyes turned red as she spoke.

It seemed like the worries had been weighing on her heart for too long, and she couldn't stop crying.

Yan Qingning really couldn't feel any sympathy for the woman's tears and her humble feelings.

She looked indifferent, and after a moment she said, "You might as well save your tears and shed them in front of a man. Maybe they can be of some value. They are useless to me. I can't give you any guarantees, and I won't promise you anything."

Cheng Wanshuang froze when she heard that. It turned out that she had looked down on her. All the bitterness in her heart suddenly faded away.

Half of her heart was filled with sadness, and half of her hoped that Yan Qingning would be soft-hearted and promise not to compete with her for the prince.

Unfortunately, she saw through my thoughts at a glance.

Cheng Wanshuang's eyes were red, "You are so cold-blooded."

Yan Qingning curled her lips: "I think our women's tears are precious. Your parents gave birth to you to make you laugh, not to make you cry.

But if you are a jerk and don't live your life with a smile, but choose to shed tears instead, then your tears are cheap and naturally not worthy of sympathy."

"You..." Cheng Wanshuang was a little angry, feeling that this woman was unyielding.

But inexplicably, she felt that what she said seemed to make sense.

Her parents and brothers had always treated her like a treasure. Whenever she cried, her father and brothers would become flustered.

“But you just asked me whether I like King Qing. It’s not that I can’t answer you. Frankly speaking, everyone loves beauty. Besides, I am also obsessed with looks, so of course I like to look at handsome men.

But I am a germaphobe and don’t like public things, so I just enjoyed it for the sake of my eyes.”

When Cheng Wanshuang heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, and her heart, which had just sunk to the bottom, suddenly felt hopeful again.

If Yan Qingning had denied it at the beginning, she would definitely not believe it in her heart.

But her answer at this time made Cheng Wanshuang believe it 80%.

As long as Yan Qingning doesn't compete with her for the prince, she is confident that she will win the prince's heart sooner or later.

Cheng Wanshuang immediately held Yan Qingning's hand eagerly, "Sister Ning, I apologize to you for the little tricks I played on you before. I was mean-spirited. I'm sorry. If you are not satisfied, you can make a request. I will do my best to compensate you if I can.

I just hope you can forgive me. I can use my personality to guarantee that if Yan Xiwei bullies you again, I will do my best to protect you."

Yan Qingning blinked, but did not break free from Cheng Wanshuang's hand. Instead, she blinked and said slowly, "Since Concubine Cheng said so, I will believe you for now..."

After a pause, without waiting for Cheng Wanshuang to say anything with joy, she continued: "But, Concubine Cheng's words about protecting me seem a little too certain.

Who knows, Concubine Cheng may need my help at a critical moment. So, it would be more appropriate to say that we support each other, what do you think, Concubine Cheng?"

Cheng Wanshuang was stunned when she heard this, "My father and brother..."

She suddenly paused while speaking.

No matter how powerful her father and brother are, they don’t have a background as strong as Yan Xiwei’s.

Yan Qingning pushed Cheng Wanshuang's hand away, picked up the round fan beside her, stared at the flowers on it, and said slowly: "Since we are working together, let's not talk about ridiculous men. Men will only affect our judgment.

Don't even think about giving ridiculous charity or suppressing anyone, just remember that we have the same goal.

That is when we can remove Yan Xiwei from the position of princess, it will be a great deed for us, what do you think?"

Cheng Wanshuang's eyes sparkled with an unprecedented light.

In Yan Qingning's eyes, Cheng Wanshuang's eyes were full of ambition and excitement.

"Okay, that's honest enough. Let's high-five each other!"
