Marry my elder sister? Fine! I'll give you the letter of annulment and marry someone else.

I don't know when the weather outside the window changed.

The sky seemed to be collapsing, and was covered with dark clouds.

Following the death of the late queen, the emperor shed sad tears again.

He was extremely sad. "I was wrong, but can't I make amends?"

He didn't even dare to think about what he had done in the past ten years. The spirit of the late queen must be very disappointed in him.

He always thought he was in control of everything, but it turned out that he was a fool who couldn't even take care of their children.

Song Zhi did not feel the slightest bit of sympathy for this. Having said what she needed to say, she fell silent and stood there in a trance.

Seeing Song Zhi's indifference, the emperor said sadly: "If you can agree to help me and Nan Qi resolve our past grievances, I promise to make Nan Qi the crown prince instead, and you will be the crown princess and also the queen."

Queen...

Isn’t the queen also a poor person trapped in the harem and having to look at the emperor’s face in everything?

It would be fine if the emperor loved her, but she was surrounded by good people.

The emperor doesn't love her and ignores her, and even the servants dare to treat her poorly.

She never thought that the harem would be a good place to be. The experience of being the Crown Princess in her previous life left a deep impression on her.

But...

"If the Emperor wishes to pass on the throne to you, I would consider it."

In order to make her proposal more serious, she took a step forward with a sincere look.

This was probably the first time the emperor had heard such outrageous remarks, and he stood there for a long time without reacting.

Finally, she frowned and said, "You are just a woman. You should take care of your husband and children and manage the harem. How could you have such unorthodox ideas? I just think you said a joke. If you say such things again, I don't mind turning you into another Xin Wanyun."

He was furious, and the threat in his tone was obvious.

Okay, okay, she will never say this again in the future and will just do it!

Song Zhiben didn't hold much hope, so this reaction was not unexpected.

She didn't dwell on the issue any further and said coldly, "This servant has no interest in the Crown Princess or the Queen. I think it's a good idea to have a live-in son-in-law. If you really want to do this for Ah Qi's own good, the best compensation would be to not bother you for the rest of your life."

"you!"

The emperor was furious. "Don't refuse my toast and drink the penalty wine!"

Song Zhi shrugged and said nothing.

Who told her to be so arrogant now? If the dog emperor still cared about Mu Nanqi's feelings and didn't want their relationship, which had already reached freezing point, to become even more serious, he wouldn't touch her.

The emperor had never found a woman so difficult to deal with. In the past, if he was unhappy, the worst that could happen was that she would be sentenced to death.

Right now, they are just relying on their insight into the situation and feeling fearless.

What could he do? He could only watch.

"Get out, get out of here!"

The emperor felt so annoyed and breathless when he saw Song Zhi's face. Knowing that she could not be used as a breakthrough point, he drove her away in a bad mood.

Song Zhi was eager to leave quickly. Upon hearing this, he immediately bowed and took his leave. He was so quick that it seemed as if he was afraid that the dog emperor would go back on his word.

The emperor felt a lump in his chest and felt even more uncomfortable.

Song Zhi came out from inside and saw a moon-white figure running away in panic around the corner, which made his heart move.

She calmly asked Xiao Qingzi, "Who was here just now?"

Xiao Qingzi pretended not to know her and said, "My lady, it was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who came to see the Emperor with some nourishing soup."

Song Zhi understood instantly. It seemed that he must have heard the words about changing the crown prince.

However, Song Zhi pretended not to know and left the palace in a leisurely manner.

After leaving the palace, Song Zhi could feel that someone was following her. She did not make any noise and continued doing her own thing as if she was unaware.

She first went to the embroidery shop to look at the wedding dress, but was told that Mu Nanqi had already taken it away.

Then she went to chat with her guests and Qin Yue and the others about family matters. It was almost dark and they were about to go home when a man in black appeared in front of Song Zhi.

"Miss Song, my master invites you."

Song Zhi noticed that the man in black was dressed exactly like the man who had previously assassinated them and the group of men in black who had assassinated Ning Qingcheng.

Her pupils shrank slightly, and after looking him up and down, she smiled and said, "Okay, I was just thinking of chatting too."

It's spring now, but the air is still very cold.

Song Zhi still wrapped himself in a thick cloak and only dared to go out with a warm hand warmer.

The willow trees by the roadside seemed to be sprouting, with new buds growing out that were not yet visible green.

The loving couple of vendors have not moved away from the same place. No matter when, you can always see them happily setting up their stall regardless of rain or shine.

Song Zhi was in a good mood and walked all the way to the place arranged by the other party.

Perhaps to express goodwill, or to let her let down her guard, the other party booked the meeting place at Cang's Restaurant.

She followed the man in black all the way to the second floor, and could clearly feel that the decoration on the second floor was more luxurious than ever.

Each room here is an independent private room, and there are corresponding waiters waiting respectfully outside.

The second floor has always been accessible only to people of status and position, so confidentiality and privacy are top-notch.

Arriving at one of the rooms, Song Zhi followed the man in black in.

The interior is elegantly decorated and a familiar figure has been sitting inside waiting for a long time.

Because he was facing away from her, Song Zhi couldn't see the other person's expression at the first moment.

However, Song Zhi recognized the person in front of him at first sight.

She walked forward silently, both as expected and unexpectedly.

The man in black disappeared without a trace, and they were the only two left in the room.

Song Zhi sat opposite calmly, with a mischievous look in his beautiful eyes.

The person opposite her drank one glass of wine after another, as if he didn't see her.

Song Zhi didn't speak, just sat there leisurely.

After a long while, the man on the other side said in a drunken voice, "If I don't speak, will you never take the initiative to talk to me?"

Song Zhi said, "Your Highness wants to see me for something. I thought Your Highness would explain it first."

The person sitting opposite was Mu Yuanzhi, who was drunk.

He had a self-deprecating look on his face as he downed another glass of wine. "Your Highness? What do you mean by Your Highness? He's just a pathetic creature who is picked up when he can be used and kicked away when he is no longer useful."

His face was red from the alcohol, and his eyes were filled with endless hatred.

"Why, am I not his child?"

Song Zhi sighed and said, "See, the emperor has always been the kind of person who favors some over others. He is not worthy of being a father at all."

It's not that she sympathizes with Mu Yuanzhi, but she feels that being born in a royal family is quite helpless. Although Sun Shi is not good to her, at least Song Yang will make decisions on her side.

As for these princes and princesses, it is better if their biological mothers are favored, but if their biological mothers are not favored, they are sometimes worse off than ordinary people.

Song Zhi didn't want to have too much interaction with him, so he didn't say anything to comfort him.

Realizing that he couldn't win Song Zhi's sympathy, Mu Yuanzhi's face was filled with even more sarcasm. "I thought you would be surprised to see me here. You already knew it was me, right?"
