Song's father had worked in the imperial court for many years, so he was naturally much smarter than Song's mother.
My little schemes are probably nothing to him.
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I believe you understand this principle."
Seeing that Song Tangli was unwilling to reply for a long time, Xiaoyao pressed on and said.
Song Tangli stood up irritably, seemingly unwilling to say anything more, and then simply called out.
"Xiaoyao, don't make all the decisions for me in the future. I know what I'm doing."
Song Tangli seemed angry, and after she finished speaking, she left and went straight into the inner room.
Xiaoyao was stunned by what he saw. He never expected that Song Tangli would talk to him like that.
Meanwhile, Song Tangxue was relieved, and Xie Qianzhong spoke with great certainty.
"Don't worry, the Crown Prince's residence has already laid a tight net, and no conspiracy or trick can escape it."
"With you there strategizing and planning, I can rest assured about everything."
Song Tangxue answered calmly and composedly, seemingly not in a hurry at all, and even said...
"Now we just need to catch him red-handed, and then we'll unleash our fury and see how long he can remain the Crown Princess."
In the end, Song Tangxue even let out a rare cold laugh.
Xie Qianzhong gazed at her intently: "You must remember, I don't want you to be blinded by this hatred."
They must continue living their lives as they should, and they must not be affected by these petty people.
Song Tangxue naturally understood this principle and nodded decisively.
"Yes, I knew you were worried about these things, but you don't need to worry too much. I know what I'm doing, so why would I do something so stupid?"
As Song Tangxue spoke, she suddenly leaned on him.
"The good life we have now is hard-won, so of course I cherish it all the more."
Xie Qianzhong smiled knowingly, and at that moment, Haitang rushed over.
"Madam, Xiaoyao has been captured over there!"
"Why the sudden action? What's going on?"
Song Tangxue was somewhat surprised, as this was not what she had expected.
Haitang quickly replied, "Xiaoyao had gathered too much information and was about to report when he was stopped."
"Has it been delivered to the Dali Temple yet?"
Xie Qianzhong asked a question, and Xiaoyao nodded seriously.
"Yes, that's what I heard. I told you to go there as soon as possible, because I heard the Emperor is very angry."
The incident happened very suddenly, but the Emperor found out at the same time, and it is conceivable that he also arranged for people to be stationed in the Crown Prince's residence.
Song Tangxue quickly realized this as well, so she gave Xie Qianzhong a meaningful look.
Xie Qianzhong knew he had to go as soon as possible, so he immediately told Song Tangxue.
"Then you stay home and behave yourself. Don't worry, wait for me to come back, okay?"
"What time is it? Why are you still worrying about me? I'm not a child anymore. You should go now."
Song Tangxue answered with a hint of helplessness, and Xie Qianzhong didn't say anything more before leaving in a hurry.
Haitang was a little nervous: "The Crown Princess has actually colluded with foreign enemies. Although we have never been on good terms with her, in the eyes of outsiders we are all family. Will we be implicated?"
"A person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear, and besides, adults are there to stand up for us. You don't need to worry, just do your job well."
Song Tangxue answered calmly, knowing that if she appeared flustered, Haitang would only become more frightened.
But no sooner had she finished speaking than Lianzhi rushed over from outside, saying in a slightly anxious tone,
"There's already a huge uproar outside. They say the Emperor is furious and the Crown Princess has been confined to the Cold Palace."
Even though Song Tangli was pregnant with twins, she was still banished to the Cold Palace, which shows that the Emperor had no intention of showing her any mercy.
Now they don't even want to give the child any face; this is utterly heartless.
After Lianzhi finished speaking, she anxiously looked at Song Tangxue again and continued speaking.
"This servant has a feeling that something is wrong with this matter. How could the Crown Princess have such audacity to collude with the enemy and betray the country?"
"You know she's been blinded by greed for a long time. Now that she's become too arrogant, she's gone downhill. It's only natural that she'd do something desperate."
Song Tangxue, however, remained remarkably calm, and even told them directly after she finished speaking.
"But none of you are allowed to rush. Just continue as before and don't let the outside world influence you!"
By the end, Song Tangxue's tone had become unusually stern.
Haitang wanted to say something more, but Lianzhi quickly tugged at her, stopping her.
Lianzhi immediately lowered her head and said meekly, "Yes, I understand. I will definitely arrange everything properly."
"I'm also a bit tired, I'll rest for a bit, you can all leave now."
Song Tangxue was unwilling to say anything more, and Haitang seemed a little unconvinced, so she remained silent.
Lianzhi then said goodbye and left with Haitang.
After they came out, Haitang spoke with some indignation.
"I think Madam was just running away from the situation. Why don't we just call her out on it and make her be prepared?"
"You silly girl, don't you think Madam is tired right now? Since we can't help, let's not make things worse."
Lian Zhi could only sigh helplessly before speaking.
After saying this, he didn't forget to give a reminder.
"Remember this: unless Madam brings it up herself, you are not allowed to mention this matter again, otherwise you will only upset her."
Haitang seemed to realize the situation too late, knowing how to handle it, even though she knew she had done something wrong.
But now that the die is cast, it's pointless to rush out and explain.
She suddenly slapped her head in annoyance: "Look at my blockhead, I didn't even realize it just now. Luckily you were here."
"You need to be more careful in the future, I won't always be there for you."
Lianzhi replied, but couldn't help but think about it herself.
"I wonder how the Crown Princess is doing now. It must be a very difficult time for her."
Song Tangxue, like Lian Zhi, had the same question.
What I want to know most right now is how Song Tangli is doing.
Song's mother had already learned of this, and she rushed over in tears.
"Madam, the lady is already asleep and should not be disturbed."
"You wretched girl, what are you saying? Such a huge change has happened to her family, how can she sleep peacefully?!"
Just as Haitang was trying to stop her, Song's mother immediately retorted, and before she could finish speaking, she was already pointing her finger at him and cursing.
"I always thought you were a sharp-tongued girl and quite disliked, but now you seem even more mean-spirited. Just looking at you is bad luck."
