The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?

This proactive and well-behaved attitude is very cute.

Xie Chengqian felt so soft inside that his breathing became heavier unconsciously. He really wanted to make excessive demands, but he was afraid that she would cry out of anger.

Everyone said that he was cold-hearted and cruel, but little did they know that he was ready to surrender just because of her look and words.

How could he be angry about this?

Song Xiwan didn't get an answer, so she took it upon herself to stand on tiptoe and kiss his thin lips.

"Is this okay?"

She tried hard to suppress her rapidly beating heart and asked calmly.

Xie Chengqian saw the blush on her face clearly, and could no longer hold back, so he held her face and kissed her.

The force was much stronger than the light touch Song Xiwan had just used, completely disrupting her breathing.

At the end of the kiss, Song Xiwan felt dizzy and only thanks to Xie Chengqian's arm around her waist for support did she not fall to the ground.

She felt she had been wronged and grumbled in dissatisfaction, "Do I have to coax you like this just for a meal?"

Xie Chengqian laughed, "Yes."

He reached out to tidy up her messy hair, his eyes gentle.

Song Xiwan curled her lips slightly and did not refute.

Yan Wushuang's reaction just now really made her a little nervous. If it was really as Xie Chengqian thought, she didn't know what to do.

Keeping distance is the best policy.

Song Xiwan didn't mention this matter and continued to ask Xie Chengqian, "Where on earth have you been? You came back so late and you're still wearing this."

Xie Chengqian responded calmly: "Enter the palace."

This answer was beyond Song Xiwan's expectations, and he was shocked.

The palace is now heavily guarded and no one is allowed to enter or leave. There should be no one inside that Xie Chengqian cares about.

"To see the Emperor?"

Xie Chengqian hummed softly, not forgetting to tease, "Xi Wan really is the one who knows me best."

Song Xiwan's expression darkened.

Behind his pretended levity, there must be the emperor's ungrateful accusations and insults.

"What did the Emperor say to you? Forget it. It was he who allowed Concubine Shen to do this, and that's why the court is in such a mess. He should reflect on himself."

Song Xiwan didn't want Xie Chengqian to bring it up again, as it would only make her sadder.

Xie Chengqian smiled faintly, "That's right, but it's a pity that he is not a person who can reflect on himself."

Even though his father was seriously ill, he was still wary of him and wanted to order people to take away his power to prevent the people of Daxia from suffering from war.

Song Xiwan asked in a muffled voice, "You knew he was like this, so why did you go?"

"When my mother passed away, I was still very young. I heard from my grandfather that she died of a sudden illness, but the Imperial Hospital didn't have any records of it, so I wanted to ask."

Xie Chengqian's expression was extremely calm, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

Song Xiwan's heart trembled, and she hugged him tightly unconsciously.

She rarely heard Xie Chengqian mention his mother. It should be said that most people have forgotten this concubine, and even the real cause of death has not been recorded, which is even more sad.

At that time, Xie Chengqian was only three years old, and no matter how smart he was, he could not control what happened.

Song Xiwan asked in a deep voice: "What did he say?"

Xie Chengqian hugged the person in his arms, his eyes full of coldness, "As I expected, it was Concubine Shen who poisoned her. She originally wanted to kill me."

"what?"

Song Xiwan was shocked and angry.

Without waiting for Xie Chengqian to answer, she angrily said, "You are just a child. No matter how much you have offended her, you wouldn't do such a cruel thing, right?"

And in the end, Xie Chengqian's mother was poisoned to death. How sad must he have felt?

Song Xiwan was so angry that her eyes turned red, and she wanted to go into the palace with a knife to make Concubine Shen pay the price!

Xie Chengqian said softly, "It won't be a one-day job for her to gain power. Supporting Xie Qiang is her best path. All threatening opponents must be eliminated."

At that time, many talented princes fell seriously ill for no reason. However, they were all born to concubines and had humble backgrounds. Concubine Shen had been favored for many years, so no one dared to investigate.

And he was the one who slipped through the net.

Song Xiwan didn't dare to think that if Xie Chengqian had not escaped this disaster, would he have been forgotten like his mother.

She cursed in extreme anger: "She has killed so many people, and yet she still has such a grand dream!"

"Don't be angry with her. She doesn't have the ability."

Xie Chengqian patted her back gently to comfort her.

Song Xiwan buried her head in his chest, listening to the sonorous heartbeat, feeling heartbroken.

He was the one who suffered, and he was also the one who comforted her.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I must not let Concubine Shen die so easily! At least completely crush her hopes and let her die in despair and pain!"

"it is good."

Xie Chengqian agreed to all of them, with a smile on his face the whole time.

It feels so good to have Xiwan caring about me.

That day, Song Xiwan stayed in the main tent, tossing and turning but unable to fall asleep.

She seemed to be becoming more and more dependent on Xie Chengqian.

But Xie Chengqian went to discuss matters with the generals. The capital city is so big that it is not easy to find Qi Wei, so a strategy must be laid out in advance.

No, she has to think of a way.

Why has Qi Wei been hiding in Shangjing City without making any movement?

Firstly, he probably wanted to get in touch with Concubine Shen and work together from both inside and outside. Secondly, he was poisoned by her poison powder and needed treatment. After all, it was made by Doctor Xu and it was not easy to detoxify.

Apart from her, the other bait was Concubine Shen.

Xie Chengqian will definitely not let her take risks, but Concubine Shen can be used to her advantage.

"Not asleep yet?"

Song Xiwan was thinking hard when the quilt was suddenly lifted up and she was hugged by Xie Chengqian.

His body was warm and had a faint fragrance. He must have taken a special bath.

"Await your return."

Song Xiwan snuggled into his arms, her voice soft and sleepy.

She thought Xie Chengqian liked to hear these words, so she was not stingy.

Unexpectedly, Xie Chengqian sighed softly, "Xiwan, you always tease me like this, I'm worried that I can't help myself."

Teasing?

Song Xiwan's hard-earned sleepiness dissipated a little, and she retorted innocently, "When did I tease you? Don't spread rumors!"

Xie Chengqian grabbed her wrist, pulled her back into his arms, and replied dully, "Now."

Song Xiwan: “?”

God knows clearly that she did nothing!

She tried to clarify, but was restrained by Xie Chengqian. He gave her a light kiss on the forehead, feeling helpless.

"Go to sleep, I don't trust myself."

Song Xiwan sensed danger from these words and immediately behaved himself.

The magical thing is that she couldn't fall asleep just now, but when she nestled in Xie Chengqian's arms, she felt inexplicably at ease and fell asleep unknowingly.

When it was dawn, Xie Chengqian had already gotten up and even prepared a delicious breakfast.

Song Xiwan was a little dazed, "Where did this come from?"

It was obvious at first glance that this was not the food that should be found in a military camp.

Xie Chengqian smiled and said teasingly, "I brought this over when Lord Song sent someone to deliver a message. I told you to finish eating and go back immediately."
