At this time, Bei Mingxuan continued, "The prince's maternal grandfather and his family were killed by the Fusheng Sect and the Golden Canary. Not a single one of them escaped. So... there must be something hidden."
Chang'an rolled his eyes and said, "Prince Xuan, you are really overthinking it. They killed the prince's grandfather and his family for revenge."
It has no relationship with the Higashijima Kurihara family.
Chang'an thought so in his heart, but he couldn't help wondering whether Meng Sichan knew the relationship between the prince's grandfather's family and the Higashijima Kurihara family at that time.
"Do you want a letter of divorce for Mother?" Chang'an changed the subject. "It is now certain that what Father did to Mother was out of helplessness."
"Let's talk about it later."
Early the next morning, Bei Mingxuan entered the palace.
Chang'an, went to see the winter snow.
At this time, Dongxue's face had completely recovered.
"I slept very well last night." Chang'an looked at Dongxue's face carefully.
"Miss. Winter snow is very good."
"Your brother Songzi will be here soon," Chang'an said. "What are your plans?"
When Dongxue heard that Songzi was coming, she immediately panicked and said, "It's better not to come. I'll go back first."
"You're still hiding something from me."
"No." Dongxue knelt down immediately. "Dongxue just doesn't want to cause trouble for the young lady. It was Dongxue who asked to marry him. No matter whether he is good or bad, Dongxue is too embarrassed to say anything in front of the young lady, and she doesn't want to make the young lady worry about me..."
Dongxue's voice became quieter and quieter.
This made Chang'an think of his previous life.
Although I wouldn't get beaten if I married Bei Ming Ye at that time, my life would still be unhappy.
If his father were alive at that time, Chang'an would not complain to his father about any of his sufferings. He had to bear all the hardships on his own, whether good or bad.
"Nonsense." Chang'an helped Dongxue up. "How could you think that? Everyone has misjudged someone. Why don't you and Songzi go to the palace and stay with me? I think he won't do anything to you."
"No!"
Dongxue's refusal was firm and without any hesitation, which made Chang'an more certain of his thoughts.
Her eyes were sharp, "Dongxue, tell me the truth, is it your brother Songzi who is working for Bei Mingye?"
Dongxue was stunned, tears in her eyes, but she didn't say anything.
"What does Bei Ming Ye ask him to do?" Chang An's voice was cold.
"Miss, I beg you not to ask anymore." Dongxue was reluctant to part with Songzi, and she was even more unwilling to make Chang'an embarrassed.
"How difficult is it?" Chang'an looked at Dongxue with dismay, "Do you know that your behavior will only hurt yourself in the end?"
"If, if I say so, Miss, can you spare Brother Songzi's life?" Dongxue burst into tears.
"The one who wanted your brother Songzi's life was never me, but the person behind him." Chang'an looked at Dongxue's aggrieved look, feeling helpless. "Tell me the truth, and let's find a solution together, okay? You can't carry it all by yourself."
"Is it really possible?" Dongxue raised her eyes, her eyes full of expectation and hope.
Changan smiled and nodded.
"It was the steward of the Fourth Prince's residence. I overheard him talking to Brother Songzi that day," Dongxue said. "They wanted to use me to poison the prince and kill him from the cold. Brother Songzi originally refused, but I heard that the steward seemed to be threatening Brother Songzi with something."
After Dongxue finished speaking, Chang'an glanced at Bailu.
The egret left.
At the same time, she thought of what Bei Ming Ye had said some time ago with such certainty that he would marry her after Bei Ming Xuan died.
Chang'an felt nauseous when he thought of Bei Mingye's words that day.
"Miss, how could Dongxue bear to harm you and the prince?" Dongxue said, "Especially since the prince is so kind to you. But Dongxue really can't bear to leave Brother Songzi."
"Actually, I've never quite understood." Chang'an asked, "For so many years, you haven't seen your brother Songzi until your mother became seriously ill... So how did your feelings for her arise?"
Dongxue was stunned. "In my heart, he has always been the brother Songzi who has protected me since I was a child...so..."
"So," Changan interrupted Dongxue, "the one you care about is the image of Brother Songzi that you have in your mind. It can be said that you don't understand the person you share the bed with at all."
“…” Dongxue didn’t say anything. She felt surprised and aggrieved.
"Promise me." Chang'an stared straight into Dongxue's eyes, "You must live happily and don't wrong yourself. Some men are worth your efforts, while others are not."
"But...Miss, Dongxue, I just hope that Brother Songzi is happy." Dongxue said, "But I can't stand by and watch them harm you.
In the past, Brother Songzi said that he would let me return to serve him. Dongxue was grateful and happy in her heart.
But just the day before, I accidentally overheard their conversation, so Dongxue hesitated. Dongxue didn't know how to face the young lady and the prince.
Then the young lady found me at home and saw Dongxue's appearance."
Chang'an's eyes flashed slightly. She could see that Dongxue was lying, but she just didn't expose it.
Dongxue's lies were simply because she didn't want to make him worry. Chang'an knew this very well. "Okay, you can stay at the mansion for the time being and take care of your pregnancy. We'll talk about it after the baby is born. Don't worry, when Songzi comes later, I will definitely not make things difficult for him."
After a while, the housekeeper came to find Chang'an. It was Songzi who came to pick up Dongxue.
In the hall.
Songzi knelt on the ground with his head down.
Dongxue sat in the ear room and watched secretly.
Chang'an's conversation with Songzi was also intermittent, but he never got up.
Until Bai Lu came back and said something in Chang'an's ear.
Anger was evident on Chang'an's face. He glanced at the man kneeling on the ground with disgust and said, "Go back. I will take care of Dongxue. You can rest assured."
Songzi could hear Chang'an's displeasure, but didn't dare to say anything more and just left.
Dongxue, who was standing aside, felt lost. He knew that Songzi would not dare to go against Chang'an's wishes, but he had never expressed his desire to meet her.
"Dongxue." Chang'an walked towards Dongxue. "He was married long before Songzi came out of prison."
"Miss, I know." Dongxue said, "Brother Songzi said so, but his wife is dead."
Chang'an frowned, glanced at Bailu, then turned and left.
"Dongxue," Bai Lu said, "Just now, the palace staff went to check. His wife is not dead. They have a son and a daughter. That woman is the adopted daughter of the Fourth Prince's housekeeper."
"...No." Dongxue denied it. "Bai Lu, are you lying to me? You must be."
