Chapter 250: Let her divorce?
After blurting it out, Xie Wanzhou realized that his reaction was too much.
Then he suppressed his excitement and pretended to be calm and asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Seeing that he was asking knowingly, Shen Ningyuan smiled calmly and said meaningfully: "Your Highness, why do you have to ask knowingly? On normal days, you don't blush or get nervous when I visit the Fragrance Pavilion at night. Now that my nominal husband is in the imperial study just across the wall, you are nervous?"
Hearing this, Xie Wan touched his nose in dismay, "You make it sound like I'm an unforgivable pervert."
"Oh, aren't you?" Shen Ningyuan raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile.
Xie Wanzhou blushed, "Of course not, it's true that I went to your room in the middle of the night, but I never did anything to you."
"If he really did something, he wouldn't be a pervert, he would be a thief!"
Xie Wanzhou: "..."
As soon as Shen Ningyuan opened her mouth, Xie Wanzhou was speechless.
After a long while, he found his voice and asked, "You made such a scene at the palace banquet and asked General Shen to give the title of the Ji family to Ji Yunnuo, just to force Ji Yunchuan to show up?"
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "You're still asking if you know that? Can't find a topic to talk about?"
Xie Wanzhou was stunned again.
Normally, Shen Ningyuan would also scold him, but she would never do it like today, when she would scold him at the slightest disagreement.
Almost every time he said something, Shen Ningyuan would choke back.
What happened to Shen Ningyuan today?
Xie Wanzhou frowned and asked, “Chen Ningyuan, why do you always choke me today?”
"I would like to ask you, my husband is next door, why did your highness come to see me?" Shen Ningyuan asked instead of answering.
Hearing the word "husband", Xie Wanzhou frowned subconsciously.
Hearing these two words from Shen Ningyuan's mouth, it just didn't sound right.
"You are not allowed to call him husband!" Xie Wanzhou said firmly.
"You're also interfering in this?" Shen Ningyuan raised an eyebrow, "Your Highness, you're meddling too much."
Xie Wanzhou said nothing, but just looked at Shen Ningyuan eagerly.
Even though he didn't say a word, his eyes somehow contained a hint of grievance.
Seeing this, Shen Ningyuan couldn't help but be shocked.
Is this...jealousy?
Shen Ningyuan touched the wings of his nose subconsciously and changed the subject, “Tell me, you came to me as soon as you left the imperial study, what’s the matter?”
Xie Wanzhou straightened his face and asked seriously, "You forced Ji Yunchuan to show up. Have you thought about the next step?"
Shen Ningyuan nodded, "So what?"
As he spoke, Shen Ningyuan looked at Xie Wanzhou with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"The reason why the battle at Baiyun Pass ended in disarray was because Ji Yunchuan was greedy for merit and rushed forward recklessly, leading 100,000 soldiers into the canyon, which led to an ambush. I have evidence of Ji Yunchuan's greed for merit and his desertion. If you promise me one thing, I will give you the evidence."
After Xie Wanzhou finished speaking, he looked at Shen Ningyuan seriously, quietly waiting for her response.
"You really have it?" Shen Ningyuan obviously didn't believe it.
"I never lie to anyone." Xie Wanzhou added, "Even less to you."
Shen Ningyuan became even more uncomfortable, “Uh…you don’t have to emphasize the last sentence.”
But he was plotting in his heart. Ji Yunnuo had evidence of the Ji family's corruption, and Xie Wanzhou had evidence of Ji Yunchuan's greed for merit and recklessness, which had harmed 100,000 soldiers.
If she had two pieces of evidence, the plan could be accelerated.
Thinking of this, Shen Ningyuan's heart sank, and she asked directly: "What do you want me to promise you?"
"I'll give you the evidence, and you and Ji Yunchuan will divorce?"
"Divorce?"
Hearing these two words, Shen Ningyuan was stunned.
"You want me to divorce Ji Yunchuan?"
Shen Ningyuan was unsure and asked again.
Xie Wanzhou nodded, "Yes, divorce Ji Yunchuan, and I will give you the evidence."
Seeing Xie Wanzhou's serious look, Shen Ningyuan hesitated.
"You gave me something so important just to make Ji Yunchuan and I divorce?" Shen Ningyuan still didn't believe it, "Xie Wanzhou, can you be a little bolder in your request?"
"That's enough." Xie Wanzhou said in a low voice, "You don't need too much."
"Then how can you be sure that I can divorce Ji Yunchuan?" Chen Ningyuan frowned, "You know better than anyone that the marriage between Ji Yunchuan and I was personally ordered by your father. If I force a divorce, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the royal family?"
"But if you show up and provide evidence to prove your loyalty, the situation will be different." Xie Wanzhou responded to her in a low voice.
As soon as the words fell, Shen Ningyuan's eyes widened immediately, full of disbelief.
exclaimed, "So, you gave me the evidence just to help me get a divorce?"
Xie Wanzhou nodded but said nothing.
Everything is implied.
Shen Ningyuan took a deep breath and stared at Xie Wanzhou motionlessly.
However, she didn't realize that the look in her eyes when she looked at Xie Wanzhou was slowly changing.
Their eyes met for a long time.
Shen Ningyuan rarely looked away first.
“Okay, I understand.” Shen Ningyuan whispered, “Once you have sorted out the evidence, send it to the general’s mansion and hand it over to my second brother. He knows what to do.”
"Okay, I know what to-"
Before Xie Wanzhou could finish his words, there was a knock on the door.
Then, Ji Yunchuan's voice came: "Ning Yuan, are you still in there?"
