When Liu Feiyan was questioned like this, she found it ridiculous. Ruozhen herself was so ignorant that she dared to provoke the Prince of Chu, and now that she was in trouble, she wanted to drag her down with her.

As she brushed Liu Ruyan's hand away, she said, "Sister, it's not that I don't want to help you, but what is the identity of the King of Chu?"

I genuinely want to help, but I'm simply powerless to do so!

However, Liu Ruyan had no intention of letting her leave so easily, and held her hand tightly.

"Feiyan, Song Lin's fate is currently unknown, but my brother-in-law can speak a few words to the prince. You must find a way to help me."

I only have one daughter, Zhen'er, and she is the apple of my eye. She has angered the prince this time, and I don't know what will happen to her. You must help me.

"If you can help me beg the Prince to spare Zhen'er, I'll risk everything on the Prince of Xiang, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Feiyan hesitated for a moment. If the Song family was really willing to go all out, it might actually be useful.

"Then shall I go and take a look?"

When the old nanny saw that Liu Feiyan was really interested in going to see after her mistress had spoken, she couldn't help but worry. This was not a good thing!

What if we get caught later? Wouldn't that be terrible?

However, Liu Ruyan remained calm. She knew her daughter's plans very well. Since she had already brought it up, she must have made preparations.

Given Liu Feiyan's personality, even if she doesn't make things clear now, she will definitely sneak up to check on us later.

Rather than doing that, it would be better to let her see it clearly, which would completely dispel her thoughts.

As Liu Feiyan walked nearby with Liu Ruyan, they heard Chu Junting's furious voice before they even got close, which startled them.

"Who gave you the audacity to offend me? No one can save you now!"

It was just a single sentence, yet the two men standing there felt the King of Chu's overwhelming power and dared not approach him even a fraction of an inch.

It was clearly a face so handsome it was almost demonic, yet the chill emanating from it sent shivers down one's spine from the soles of one's feet. The terrifying aura made one wonder if getting too close would mean certain death.

Liu Ruyan's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but look at the old woman. Was this really an act?

If that's true, then we're in for a real disaster.

"Sister, please help me think of a solution. I'll send someone to inform your husband right away so he can help as well," Liu Ruyan said hurriedly.

Liu Feiyan was terrified when she heard Chu Junting's furious voice. When she saw Liu Ruyan pushing her forward, she waved her hands repeatedly.

"I'm not going, I'm not going."

“Sister, didn’t we agree on this?” Liu Ruyan asked.

At this moment, Chu Junting's voice came again, "Very well, your Song family really has guts. Then let's see how many heads your Song family has enough to chop off!"

"Guards, take Song Ruozhen away!"

Watching Chu Junting act, Song Jingshen couldn't help but admire him. As expected of a prince, even his acting was extraordinary!

His imposing presence made him tremble, but the thought that his younger sister could get the Prince of Chu to cooperate in this charade filled him with joy.

This is like a windfall, something I would never have dared to dream of before!

Therefore, Song Ruozhen was acting perfectly when she saw the strange curve of her fourth brother's lips, which he couldn't help but raise while trying his best to suppress it, ultimately resulting in a twitching scene.

A terrible teammate?

Song Ruozhen couldn't help but wink at him, and the latter immediately knelt down.

"Your Highness, please spare my sister! Our Song family has been loyal and virtuous for generations!"

Song Jingshen lowered his head, not wanting anyone to see the twitching corner of his mouth.

"I find you all quite audacious. Do you think that Song Yanzhou has hope after returning to officialdom?"

"I'd like to know just how capable you are. Do you think you can act with impunity just because you saved the young prince? Even if he comes to plead for you, it's useless!"

Chu Junting sneered, "I've seen plenty of people who get cocky just because they had a bit of luck. It was just a small favor, a little face I gave you, and you've really gone too far?"

Liu Feiyan's last hope was completely dispelled by these words, and all her original thoughts vanished.

She didn't bother to say anything more and casually shook off Liu Ruyan's hand.

"Sister, you're in deep trouble this time. I can't help you, so I'll be leaving now!"

"Don't go! As long as you and your brother-in-law help me beg the Prince, I will definitely go back and beg Prince Xiang to spare Hanfei!" Liu Ruyan said unwillingly.

However, Liu Feiyan sneered upon hearing this, "You are all facing imminent disaster and can barely take care of yourselves. You still want to help me? You're lucky you're not dragging me down with you!"

Although King Xiang was the elder of King Chu, everyone in the capital city knew that King Chu's influence was much greater than King Xiang's.

Although Hanfei's trouble this time is troublesome, at most he will be exiled. But the trouble that the Song family has caused is a catastrophe!

Liu Ruyan's eyes were red. "We are sisters. Now that we are in such danger, don't you care about our relationship at all?"

"Then you should discipline your daughter properly. She caused this kind of trouble and expects us to clean up the mess. Even her parents wouldn't be able to handle it, let alone me!"

After saying that, Liu Feiyan turned and left, afraid that if she walked too slowly, she would be arrested by the people from the Chu Prince's mansion.

"Fine, you said it yourself. Don't come to me if anything happens to your Sun family in the future!" Liu Ruyan said fiercely, as if she had been deeply hurt.

"up to you!"

After Liu Feiyan left, Liu Ruyan walked up to Chu Junting and immediately tried to bow, "Thank you, Your Highness..."

"Auntie, you're too kind."

Chu Junting quickly helped Liu Ruyan up, saying, "It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning."

Looking at the kind and gentle Chu Junting, Liu Ruyan was filled with admiration. She simply did not believe that the King of Chu had no feelings for Ruozhen.

How could anyone else have been treated with such courtesy by the King of Chu?

Song Jingshen and his mother exchanged a glance and understood each other's thoughts. They were both pleasantly surprised and worried. It was a blessing to be favored by the prince, but the royal family was not easy to enter, especially since the empress had specially summoned Ruozhen to the palace last time.

One is the daughter of the Prime Minister, and the other is Ruozhen. It's not hard to guess what the Empress is thinking, but the Prince of Chu seems to be very insistent on his stance.

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness." Song Ruozhen smiled. "Now that's settled, after today's incident, Aunt won't be bothering Mother anymore for a while."

"Even if she comes, we should just not let her in. She always makes shameless and unreasonable demands. We shouldn't continue to indulge her."

Song Jingshen also disliked Liu Feiyan, but his mother had never refused her before. Now that she had returned, her attitude had changed, and he was overjoyed.

This feeling... is like the whole family is getting better!
