Chapter 162 Truly in Love with the Prince
"If only you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place."
Ah San muttered something, but Pei Yanchuan glanced at him and obediently shut his mouth.
“What the younger brother said is right.” Ah San couldn’t stop talking and couldn’t help but mutter, “Who told you to be two-timing me?”
"It's been flipped over, hasn't it?"
Pei Yanchuan raised his leg, intending to kick Ah San away.
In a panic, Ah San shouted, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the Prince not only won't apologize, he's also hitting your people..."
Pei Yanchuan hurriedly covered Ah San's mouth.
"Your Highness, let it go," Mo Qing said in a low voice. "You've really gone too far this time."
"How could you not control yourself for a woman like that?"
"You've endured all these years, how come you couldn't hold back when the Princess came?"
"Is this a case of getting addicted to the grapes?"
"I must say something about you. How could you bring yourself to eat someone like that? Although she is not bad looking, she is nothing compared to the Princess."
"Shut up." Pei Yanchuan's head was throbbing from the noise.
Where is Wu Xinrui?
"No, even at this point, you're still thinking about that woman?"
Pei Yanchuan glared at him, and Mo Qing obediently changed his tune, "As you instructed, he is to be kept in the camp and not allowed to leave at will."
"Keep an eye on her and make sure nothing happens to her."
"It's not Master..." Mo Qing wanted to stand up for Jiang Wan Ning.
Mo Ran rushed over and pulled her aside, saying, "Your Highness, don't you know why you're keeping her around?"
"I know, but..."
Mo Qing suddenly realized, "Master, are you... trying to seduce me?"
"Selling your body in exchange for crucial information about Wu Xinrui?"
Mo Qing looked him up and down as he spoke, "This move is truly brilliant."
"But... will the princess still want you in the future?"
“Wu Xinrui is definitely not some simple country bumpkin who knows nothing,” Mo Ran said.
"There's a reason why the master did this."
"Don't make things worse."
Mo Ran glanced at Pei Yanchuan as she spoke, "Even if I'm selling my body."
"But the clues that woman mentioned are not important to us. Even if I sell my body, that's my skill."
Pei Yanchuan glanced at the two of them helplessly, sighed softly, and turned to leave.
......
Wu Xinrui used to be able to go out and move around freely, but since that day she has been trapped in this tent.
They ate, drank, and relieved themselves all in this tent.
Wu Xinrui had no choice but to threaten him with the baby in her womb, but still no one responded.
Helpless, he could only shout, "Go tell the prince that I have promised to tell him everything I know."
"But she wanted to untie my feet."
Upon hearing Wu Xinrui's words, one of the guards gave her a wink, and the other quickly ran to inform Pei Yanchuan.
Pei Yanchuan had him brought into his tent.
Wu Xinrui's eyes sparkled; any man would want to protect a woman like that.
She used this method before on the estate to get all the men to stand up and protect her.
However, this method had no effect on Pei Yanchuan.
She was being chased that day, but fortunately she knew the Langya army's marching route in advance and was discovered just as her life was hanging by a thread.
She thought Pei Yanchuan would save her, but after learning her identity, he not only didn't save her, but almost handed her over to the authorities.
She was able to save her life by exchanging the secrets she knew.
She had thought that spending more time with him would win his favor, but all these days, he had kept her locked up like this, not even glancing at her.
Sometimes Wu Xinrui couldn't believe whether Pei Yanchuan was really a man or whether she was simply not charming enough.
"Speak," Pei Yanchuan said coldly.
Wu Xinrui came to her senses and said, "Your Highness, I can tell you, but I have one condition."
Pei Yanchuan looked down at the memorial, "Do you think you have the right to negotiate with me?"
Wu Xinrui trembled, her hands gripping her sleeves tightly as she forced herself to calm down. "Your Highness, I can explain this to the Princess."
"To reconcile you."
"But I have only one condition: that you let me leave."
“This servant knows that I cannot win the prince’s heart and soul. The prince and I have been saved by the prince, and this servant does not want the prince and princess to continue to misunderstand each other like this.”
“As a woman, I naturally understand women’s hearts better. Furthermore, it is easier for the princess to believe me if I, the person involved, explain it.”
Pei Yanchuan loosened his grip on the memorial, slowly raising his head. "You'd better not try anything funny with me."
Wu Xinrui kowtowed, "This servant dares not."
"That matter..."
"As for that matter, it was for my own safety. I will tell you when Your Highness sends me away."
"I will believe you this time."
He really didn't know how to explain to Ningning that she had refused to see him or speak to him these days.
He really couldn't help it.
I remember when my mother was angry and my father was trying to appease her, he once said, "Appeasing a woman is more frightening than fighting a war."
He didn't understand before, but he finally does today.
"Mo Ran, take her away."
"yes."
Wu Xinrui arrived at the entrance of Jiang Wanning's tent.
Ah San rolled up his sleeves, "You little rascal..."
Ah San looked at Mo Ran behind him, but couldn't bring himself to utter the words "scoundrel." "What are you doing here?"
"This servant has come to pay respects to the Princess." Wu Xinrui always spoke softly and weakly to everyone. "Please inform this elder brother."
"I can't report anything at all." Ah San waved his hand. "You can leave now. My princess won't see you."
I don't know what the prince was thinking. He just got the princess's granary and his true colors were exposed.
It's only because the princess is so righteous; otherwise, if she had taken over the granary, let's see what he would have done.
"This servant has something to say to the Princess, and the Prince also gave me permission to come."
Wu Xinrui glanced at Mo Ran.
Although Mo Ran was unwilling, she could only explain, "She was indeed sent by the Prince."
"Then I absolutely cannot let her in." Ah San refused to allow it no matter what.
"You may leave; our princess will not see you..."
Before the word "you" could be uttered, Jiang Wan Ning's voice came from the inner room.
"Ah San, let her in."
The Indian man, who had been full of bravado, instantly deflated upon hearing the words coming from inside.
Step aside. "Go inside."
Wu Xinrui gave a slight curtsy and went inside.
"Just let her in alone."
Mo Ran, who had just stepped inside, silently withdrew his foot upon hearing this.
After wiping Haitang's face and hands, Jiang Wanning also wiped Shaoyao's face before stepping out from behind the simple screen.
He sat in the main seat, poured himself a cup of tea, and said slowly, "Speak."
There was no sadness or grief on his face.
Wu Xinrui felt a little annoyed after being left standing there for so long.
He showed no sign of it on his face, but knelt down with a 'plop', tears instantly welling up in his eyes, "Your Highness, please forgive me."
"This servant and Your Highness...this servant truly loves Your Highness."
"This servant asks for nothing more than to be able to stay by Your Highness's side."
