The prince kneels every day. Has the princess forgiven him today?
Chapter 268 The Reckoning is Coming
early morning.
"girl?"
Qiu Zhu called softly from outside the door.
Song Xiwan lazily tried to turn over, but felt a soreness in her body.
Ok?
The absurd memories of last night surfaced in her mind, causing her to open her eyes suddenly, her face flushed with shame.
He, they consummated their marriage!
Most importantly, she remembered it all!
What did Xie Chengqian say last night? "We have already been husband and wife. We will get married again after our triumphant return to Beijing. I won't let you have any thoughts of breaking off the engagement."
Song Xiwan was extremely embarrassed and covered his forehead with regret.
The thought of breaking off the engagement has led you into trouble!
Because of this cracking drug, she has done a lot of stupid things in recent days.
And Yan Wushuang...
Song Xiwan's eyes darkened and she wanted to faint, not wanting to face the mess she had left behind.
Outside, Qiu Zhu waited for a while but received no response from the girl. Worried, he pushed the door open and walked in. He saw the girl sitting on the bed, looking as if she had lost all hope in life.
Qiu Zhu was terrified and ran over to ask, "Miss, are you okay?"
"Something happened."
Song Xiwan murmured in response.
Things are still bad!
Qiu Zhu was confused and could only anxiously comfort her, "Don't be afraid, young lady. The prince has returned. Cang Nation will not attack again in the short term. Our people will definitely find Su Xunyao."
Song Xiwan sighed softly.
"It's not because of Su Xunyao."
A defeated general can never amount to anything.
Qiu Zhu was stunned for a moment, remembering that the girl didn't remember anything now, and then said, "The doctor said that as long as there is some time, there is still hope for recovery, so there is no need to rush."
Unexpectedly, the girl still shook her head.
"I've remembered it."
"what?"
Qiu Zhu was completely confused.
So what are you worried about now?
Song Xiwan found it difficult to explain this to Qiu Zhu, so she just told him, "Please keep this a secret for me. I still need to figure out how to handle this."
She saw everything Yan Wushuang arranged during the poisoning.
Song Xiwan also knew that he could no longer deceive himself and that this matter must be resolved, but he had no idea for the time being.
Qiu Zhu didn't understand, but she always obeyed.
"it is good."
Only then did Song Xiwan get up to wash and change clothes.
She took a deep breath as she moved.
Qiu Zhu hurriedly supported her, her face flushed red as she muttered, "Your Highness is such a fool! How can he not be gentle with women?"
The indifference on Song Xiwan's face suddenly disappeared, and she turned her head to look at Qiu Zhu in surprise.
What do you mean?
Could it be that everyone outside heard it last night?
Song Xiwan had never felt so helpless before. She really wanted to take the deadly antidote again so that she could completely forget all these things.
Qiu Zhu understood the look on the girl's face and hurriedly explained, "Don't worry, young lady. The secret guards around last night all retreated far away. I only stayed to serve you because I wanted to bring you some water."
Song Xiwan almost couldn't breathe a sigh of relief, she couldn't feel at ease at all.
There is no three hundred taels of silver here!
Besides, Qiu Zhu calmly explained to her that the discussion was also a challenge for Song Xiwan. She closed her eyes deeply and persuaded herself again and again before she suppressed the shame.
"Stop talking."
"Oh, don't tell me."
Qiu Zhu nodded obediently.
Song Xiwan gave up struggling and asked Qiuzhu to prepare a bathtub so that she could relax.
But as soon as she closed her eyes, all she could think about were recent events, which gave her a headache. Although Su Xunyao could not achieve anything great, this account must be settled.
Su Xunyao is actually working hard for Cang Country!
Is this the reason why Xie Chengqian has been in a stalemate with Cang State recently?
Qiu Zhu's thoughts drifted elsewhere. "Should I start preparing the young lady's wedding dress? I wonder if I can make it back to the capital in time for the wedding."
It is extremely shocking to consummate the marriage before getting married.
In order to prevent someone from spreading the news and affecting the girl's reputation, the marriage cannot be delayed.
"Not in a hurry."
Song Xiwan felt that the war had not yet been resolved, so how could they hold this happy event?
Qiu Zhu muttered, "There is no such thing as an impenetrable wall."
Song Xiwan finally understood what Qiu Zhu was worried about. She smiled and asked, "So what? This is a matter between me and the prince. No matter what others say, it cannot affect me."
Qiu Zhu noticed the look in the girl's eyes and was easily persuaded.
The girl who regained her memory seemed to be more resolute.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Song Xiwan went to the study to find Xie Chengqian.
The yard was much calmer than usual, especially near the study, where a tense atmosphere permeated the air.
"What do you mean?"
It was Xie Chengqian's voice.
Song Xiwan glanced inside and saw several generals.
One of them lowered his head but still said stubbornly, "I know that the prince trusts Lord Song, but she killed General Guan so easily. How can we convince everyone of this?"
It turned out to be from her.
Song Xiwan's eyes were slightly cold.
She recognized that this general had always been on the front line and probably didn't know what was happening behind the barracks, so was he simply speaking up for Guan Yao?
Xie Chengqian's voice was extremely cold, "Guan Yao repeatedly plotted to kill imperial officials. This crime deserves death."
The generals in front of him tensed up.
They had followed the prince on his expeditions for many years and understood how furious he was at the moment.
Can……
"The prince had clearly ordered Guan Yao to be escorted back to the capital for questioning, but Lord Song wanted to kill her. This is treason. What is the punishment for this crime?"
The generals were chilled.
A mere woman is so important to the prince that he can easily trample on the lives of his brothers?
This time it was Guan Yao, but next time it might be them.
Xie Chengqian's cold eyes showed no sign of softening, nor any intention of giving in. "She is an official appointed by His Majesty personally. She has the right to punish anyone on the spot. Anyone who is dissatisfied can resign from the barracks and return to the capital to report."
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
The harsh tone left the generals no way out, making their faces turn pale.
Only at this moment did they realize how fanciful they were, actually trying to force the prince to listen to them.
If you leave the military camp in the middle of a battle, you will probably be drowned in spit when you return!
Besides, there is no need to make a special memorial just for Guan Yao.
"Don't worry, everyone. Once the war is over, I will report this matter to Your Majesty personally.
Song Xiwan walked in slowly and disagreed with taking on this matter.
Everyone in the study looked over and their expressions changed.
It’s all Lord Song’s fault for blinding the prince’s eyes!
The most terrible thing is that the prince's face, which was as cold as frost just now, is now as bright as spring breeze.
"How did you come?"
The tone is extremely gentle!
This comparison made them realize more clearly what stupid thing they had done just now and they just wanted to escape.
Song Xiwan said calmly, "As a deputy minister of the Ministry of War, I heard that the prince had returned victorious yesterday, so I came here specifically to inquire about the current war situation. I didn't expect to encounter an impeachment."
The last sentence made the generals' scalps tighten, and they couldn't help but reveal a bit of guilt.
