Hua Rong noticed that Cong Huan's face was also somewhat pale.
He clearly understood what Song Ziyu meant.
But perhaps it was love for Song Ziyu, or perhaps something else entirely.
She did not refute Song Ziyu's words.
Song Ziyu also felt very guilty towards Cong Huan.
However, in this situation, he could only prioritize his own safety.
Otherwise, Cong Huan wouldn't have survived either.
He said to Song An, "I would like to ask Brother Song An to accompany Ziyu to the Emperor to apologize. After apologizing, Ziyu will ask the Emperor to grant him a marriage. Ziyu will take responsibility for Miss Cong."
Song An looked touched: "Seventh Prince is truly a man of great loyalty and affection. I believe you and Miss Cong will definitely have a good marriage."
At this point, it seemed that this farce was about to come to an end.
However, Hua Rong was unwilling to do so.
The moment she had this thought, a group of people hurried over.
The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in a purple robe with an eight-python crown.
That is the master of the Lingwang Mansion, the Lingwang!
"Father, what brings you here?"
Song An and Wushuang trembled upon seeing Prince Ling.
It was simply that Prince Ling was too strict with them on a daily basis.
They feared no one outside, but once they returned to the Ling Prince's residence, they treated the Ling Prince with utmost respect.
It didn't seem like the way he treated his father; it was more like the way he treated his master.
From the attitudes of the two men, Hua Rong understood what a ruthless person Prince Ling was!
But the harsher she was, the happier she was.
A cold smile flashed in Hua Rong's eyes as he pulled Xiao Wu back a few steps.
She accidentally bumped into someone, and when she turned around, she saw Jin Ming smiling at her.
Hua Rong rolled her eyes. Jin Ming's handsome face was indeed suited to smiling.
But every time Hua Rong saw his smile, she felt a chill run down her spine.
Jin Ming lowered his head and whispered in Hua Rong's ear, "Miss Yuan Sun seems to have anticipated that Prince Ling would appear here."
Hua Rong didn't feel anything about Jin Ming saying that.
Even if Jin Ming guesses right, so what? He's not going to stand up and yell.
In that case, she has nothing to be afraid of.
Just as Hua Rong was about to speak, Wang Shishen approached with a worried expression.
"Lord Jin, I have a bad feeling about this."
After saying this, Wang Shishen turned around and noticed Hua Rong.
He immediately blushed and quickly clasped his hands in a gesture of respect: "I'm sorry, Shi Shen didn't know that Miss was talking to Lord Jin."
Hua Rong knew this man's gentlemanly heart and believed that interrupting others was a breach of gentlemanly conduct.
Hua Rong shook his head at him, and the commotion caused by Prince Ling over there left them no time to speak.
Ling Wang was followed by more than a dozen guards from the Ling Wang Mansion.
After they reached them, they surrounded them.
"Father, what are you doing? They are my guests!"
Song An was taken aback by the actions of these guards, but he knew that it was Prince Ling who was in charge.
“That’s right, these are all guests that my brother and I invited.”
Princess Wushuang also muttered something under her breath.
"Prince Ling, what are you doing?"
Song Ziyu was supported by Prince Ling, so his tone was relatively mild at this moment.
In the past, when the Prince of Ling saw him, he would show kindness.
However, this time, Ling Wang's eyes were cold, and he said in a dignified tone, "I apologize, everyone, but I have lost something very important, and I suspect that one of you took it!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Rong nearly knelt before Prince Ling!
Arrogant!
So arrogant!
Extremely arrogant!
It should be noted that most of the people present were descendants of powerful and influential figures in the capital.
Prince Ling actually pinned the crime of theft on this group of people.
Even if the real thief is eventually found, Prince Ling will still have to offend these people.
But she...likes it!
"Prince Ling, this is really wrong of you. You searched us without any evidence. You're simply showing us no respect!"
Wang Shishen was a true scholar who valued the rites of filial piety above all else.
Now, it's so obvious that Prince Ling suspects him of theft.
Although he wasn't the only one being suspected, it was still unbearable for him.
"Yes, Prince Ling. What is it in your residence that even we would steal?"
The Third Prince, Song Zilei, glanced at Cong Yao out of the corner of his eye.
It was rare for him to say such a thing in front of the Seventh Prince, Song Ziyu.
Prince Ling frowned, having no interest in talking to these people.
He directly told the guards, "Take them away and search them. The maids will search the women, and I will search the men myself!"
Song Ziyu knew something was wrong as soon as he saw Ling Wang's posture.
It seems that something really has been lost.
He then thought of his father's memorials to the emperor.
In reality, none of them were sent to the Imperial Study.
Instead, it was sent directly to Prince Ling.
Some of these documents are even classified.
Could it be those documents that were lost?
Song Ziyu suddenly didn't dare to speak either.
He was still a little angry when Song Zilei spoke before him.
Now I dare not be glad that I didn't speak up, lest I rush up and incur the wrath of Prince Ling.
Regardless of what these noble ladies and gentlemen think.
Finally, under the watchful eyes of the guards and Prince Ling, they headed to the room where they would be searched.
However, during this process, Hua Rong took advantage of everyone's inattention and shoved Zheng Yue.
This conveniently pushed her in front of Song Ziyu.
The two collided immediately, it was unclear whether Zheng Yue was too heavy or Song Ziyu was too frail.
In short, Zheng Yue pinned Song Ziyu to the ground.
