Chapter 344 I Can Promise You

Yunsong smiled meaningfully, and Lu Xinran almost instantly guessed why he said that.

This person wanted to use her voice to let everyone know his true identity.

But in this case, the relationship between the emperor and the Zhang family would also be exposed.

Song Junyan refused without hesitation: "This matter has nothing to do with her. I will not involve her. Besides, before you... I have already decided to cooperate with the Duke of Zhenguo."

The empress wanted to leave the palace openly, and the Zhang family wanted to return to the northwest, but these could only be achieved after he successfully obtained that position.

Yunsong was not surprised by his refusal. He just smiled meaningfully: "Do you really think Zhang Yongping will help you wholeheartedly? The Zhang family is afraid of the well rope for ten years after being bitten by a snake once. If he can get a chance, he will definitely not put the lives of the whole family in the hands of outsiders."

If Qi Yu and Zhong Rui could lead their troops all the way to the capital, who could have predicted the final outcome?

"Aren't you afraid they will take your place?"

By then, the whole world will have a new surname.

Song Junyan pursed his lips and said nothing. It was for this reason that he was reserved.

He really couldn't trust Zhang Yongping. If Zhong Rui really came with his troops, with his unruly personality, who could guarantee that he wouldn't help Zhang Yongping ascend the throne!

"So if you want to find a partner, I'm the only one. I don't have much time left, and I don't have any children, so I'm not a threat to you at all.

"And what I want is what should belong to me!

"I'm just taking back everything that's rightfully mine, what's wrong with that?"

Lu Xinlan gently pinched Lu Xinran's fingers, and nodded slightly as she glanced at them, indicating that they should agree.

Given the current chaos in the capital and the presence of various forces, cooperating with Yunsong is the best option for them.

"I can promise you, but I will decide when and how to do it. I will not listen to your instructions."

"Can!"

Yunsong smiled and said, "I won't say anything, but I will urge you. After all, I don't have much time left and can't wait too long."

Lu Xinran snorted. She knew that he didn't have much time left, and she didn't want to worry about it.

But he had to find the right time to make his requests, and he had to find a safe way to make them known and make the empress dowager and court officials accept them calmly.

"I need some of your manpower in the palace."

"Sure, didn't Fu Hai surrender to you? I will hand over some of the men to him, and you can ask him for the men then."

After so long in kidnapping this person and so much talk, I finally got what I wanted.

Yunsong smiled more broadly, "Happy cooperation!"

Song Junyan's expression was still stern, but Lu Xinran had already responded, so he couldn't deny her decision, so he just stood up and asked, "Can we go now?"

"Of course you can. The people around you should all be outside now. Don't worry, I haven't moved a single one."

It would have been better if he didn't mention those secret guards. When he mentioned this matter, Song Junyan's face became even uglier.

From yesterday to today, Yunsong's men have been reminding him all the time that the secret guards around him... are not very good.

"Don't worry, the people around you are not bad, they just did it on purpose, they are not on guard enough."

It would have been better if he didn't explain, because saying so would make those secret guards seem even more useless.

Lu Xinran could feel the anger and powerlessness in Song Junyan's heart. She stood up, took his big hand, and gently stroked the back of his hand with her thumb.

"Let's go."

Knowing that the other party is deliberately provoking him, if he continues to feel frustrated and ashamed, he will fall into the other party's trap.

They had only verbally agreed to cooperate with each other, but no one said much about how they would cooperate or to what extent each side would achieve.

No one mentions who will take the lead and hold more initiative.

The initiative is naturally fought for in each confrontation, and Yunsong's words just now were the first move.

"You can either keep surprising me or... just give me one chance and I'll catch you."

Her voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by Yunsong.

Yunsong's complacent smile suddenly dimmed. He looked directly into Lu Xinran's eyes with sharp eyes, trying to overwhelm her with his aura.

How could he be afraid of these things if he was not afraid of death? Lu Xinran just sneered and squeezed Song Junyan's hand slightly.

"Let's go."

The three of them left Ruyi Tower without any hindrance. Although they had been inside the building for less than an hour and it was only noon at this time, the moment the warm sun brushed against their bodies, they all breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

This time the three of them did not split into two carriages. As soon as Song Junyan returned to the Prince of Wei's mansion, he was summoned into the palace.

The emperor woke up and wanted to see several princes.

"Sister, how much do you think we can trust Yunsong's words today?"

Sitting in the house, the dragon stove under his feet was burning brightly, but Lu Xinran still felt chilly.

The two sisters sat opposite each other on the couch, and Lu Xinlan listened to her questions but was unable to give an answer.

"Let's wait and see what he does next. His actions over the past two days have been too sudden. We know very little about him, so it's probably hard to guess what he's really thinking right now."

"He didn't even mention the Yun family today!"

Thinking that he had been taking advantage of the Yun family's power for so many years and that in the end he would most likely bring disaster to the Yun family, she just wanted to slap him to death.

Speaking of the Yun family, Lu Xinlan glanced at the door and said, "Let's send someone to the Yun family to take a look."

See if Yun Cheng took the Yun family away from the capital yesterday.

Judging from Yunsong's reckless behavior in the past two days, it is only a matter of time before his identity is exposed.

"Well, I'll let Tracy arrange it."

Ding San and his men were all seriously injured the day before and now all need to stay in bed to recuperate, leaving her without anyone to turn to for the time being.

After all the trivial matters were arranged, she sat back on the couch, looked at Lu Xinlan who was still in deep thought, pursed her lips and pondered for a long time before finally asking.

"Sister, your marriage...how are you going to deal with it? Do you really want to divorce your brother-in-law?"

Back to this point, Lu Xinlan came back to his senses from his contemplation and smiled bitterly.

"What else can we do? This place is different from our past. It's not like we can just live our lives behind closed doors as a young couple. He is the eldest son of the family. Tang Quyan has only one legitimate son and has high hopes for him. His only way out has always been to inherit the family lineage."

Tang Quyan had already arranged everything for him in the Dali Temple, so how could she let him be exiled for her and never return to Beijing in the future?

Just listen to this kind of talk, if you take it seriously you will lose.
