"Chen Jingwen and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not have a good ending. You might as well take advantage of the opportunity to make amends and cancel the engagement."
"Our two families know each other well, and with the Crown Prince's support in the future, it's definitely better than following that poor scholar."
Ning Wan sneered:
"Zhou Wenhuai, I think it was you who fell into the lake that day. Are you crazy? What does it have to do with you who I'm with? And what does it have to do with that prince?"
“Even if Shen Jingwen offended the prince, what can he do?”
"My Ning family has plenty of money. Even if he does nothing, I can still support him. Besides, my Ning family is upright and honest. Even if Jun Yan is the emperor, he can't punish the Ning family at will."
"What's more, Jun Yan is only the crown prince now. He changes his mind every day. He may not be able to sit in this position for long. It's not your turn to speak nonsense here by using his name."
Zhou Wenhuai originally wanted to use a soft strategy to make Ning Wan give up, but he didn't expect to hear these words.
Without thinking too much, he walked forward and just as he was about to hold Ning Wan's hand, she cleverly avoided him.
"Ning Wan, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. Do you have to wait for Shen Jingwen to die in front of you before you will believe what I said?"
Ning Wan moved aside, speaking in a harsh tone, with a hint of ridicule:
"Really? You still don't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is imprisoned in the Eastern Palace, right? His collaborating with the enemy has long been discovered by the Emperor. Do you think that the things you did for him were so flawless that no one would know about it?"
"Which of the following, raising private soldiers or privately manufacturing weapons, isn't a capital offense?"
Zhou Wenhuai didn't expect Ning Wan to know about this kind of thing, his face froze: "How do you know...Did Shen Jingwen tell you?"
As he spoke, he suddenly remembered something and his voice suddenly became much louder:
"It must be him. Did he even tell you something like this? No wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly couldn't leave the palace. It turns out he was the one who was interfering."
"Do you think you can bring down His Highness like this?"
"Ning Wan, you are still too naive."
"Once tonight is over, Jingping will change its master, and Shen Jingwen will have no way out because of his recklessness."
Ning Wan panicked and suddenly grabbed Zhou Wenhuai, demanding, "What do you mean?"
"What change of ownership?"
"Isn't he locked up? What other tricks do you have?"
Zhou Wenhuai looked at Ning Wan, who had lost her mind, and suddenly laughed with great satisfaction: "Ning Wan, you are not stupid. You should know what to choose. If you don't want the Ning family to be in trouble and don't want to suffer revenge from His Highness..."
"You want to force the emperor to abdicate?" Ning Wan asked again, as if she hadn't heard Zhou Wenhuai's words.
She suddenly became nervous.
"Ning Wan, I told you, you're not stupid." Zhou Wenhuai stopped pretending to be stupid and said smugly, "We are indeed planning to force the emperor to abdicate. Don't even think about informing Shen Jingwen. I won't give you that chance."
"You just need to wait obediently in this room for a day. I will arrange everything for you. As for Shen Jingwen..."
"As long as he dies, you won't be implicated."
Zhou Wenhuai had already ordered the palace soldiers to guard the inn, and he would definitely not give Ning Wan a chance to escape and report the news.
"Impossible! Jun Yan is still imprisoned in the Eastern Palace. How could it be possible? You made the decision for him without authorization. Aren't you afraid..."
Suddenly, a letter caught Ning Wan's eyes.
"I'm sorry to disappoint Wanwan. I made this decision based on your Highness's wishes."
Zhou Wenhuai didn't know why he was so irrational, but seeing Ning Wan looking worried about Shen Jingwen, he felt it was particularly irritating.
"You've said so much, just to ask me to take out this letter, right?"
"Don't even think about it. Everyone outside this inn is my people. How could I possibly let you rescue him as you wish?"
"Ning Wan, I have to admit, you're really different now than you were before, but it's time to end this game."
At this time, Ning Wan finally understood the reason why Zhou Wenhuai insisted on bringing her out today. However, his goal was still one step away, while her goal had already been achieved.
This play is really difficult to perform.
She chuckled softly, ignoring the worry that flashed in Zhou Wenhuai's eyes, and said with a smile: "You are right, the game is indeed over."
The door that was originally closed was kicked open by someone. Ji Yue and Ji Xue stepped into the room and held Zhou Wenhuai tightly, while the letter in his hand was snatched away by Ning Wan.
She took a long breath, handed the letter to the unhappy Shen Jingwen, and asked for credit: "A Jing, am I good?"
However, she did not wait for Shen Jingwen's praise, but received a suffocating hug. He held her tightly in his arms. Before she could push him away, his voice sounded softly in her ear:
"Wanwan, you shouldn't take this risk."
The itch on her neck made Ning Wan shrink subconsciously, but before she could explain, she was picked up by Shen Jingwen.
Shen Jingwen's eyes dimmed a little. He glanced at Zhou Wenhuai, who had not yet recovered from his shock. A hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
