Yun Chuwei listened attentively to He Ning's words and answered He Ning's questions very seriously.
She first spoke briefly about what happened at the palace banquet, and then said, "I heard from my second brother that he brought Yun Lianhua back, so I wanted to come and see her."
He Ning glanced at Yun Lianhua, his disdain evident in his eyes.
"Why are you looking at her? She's dirty and ugly; just looking at her is an eyesore. My Weiwei is beautiful, capable, and has a great temperament. It's too much of an honor for her to come and see her!"
Yun Lianhua: ...
Yun Zheng: ...
While what this person said is true, was it necessary to say it so directly?
Yun Chuwei found it somewhat amusing and echoed He Ning, "Yes, yes, yes, I'm definitely giving her face by coming to see her. However, she's still somewhat useful to me. So I came to see her!"
He Ning looked at Yun Lianhua kneeling on the ground with even more disdain and said dismissively, "What use is this thing?"
Yun Lianhua: ...
He Ning said this casually, without intending to ask any further questions.
Without waiting for Yun Chuwei's reply, she stood up and said, "I've seen the person, and seeing her again is just too annoying. I'm going to see your grandmother."
-
After He Ning left, Yun Lianhua did not stand up.
She took a few steps forward on her knees and knelt down in front of Yun Chuwei.
She knew that Xie Sheng had sent people to kill her, and she also knew that Yun Chuwei had sent people to save her.
With He Ning unwilling to help her, Yun Chuwei was her only lifeline.
"As long as you let me live, I'll do whatever you want me to do!"
Yun Lianhua kowtowed to Yun Chuwei.
If the Crown Prince wants to kill her, the Empress will definitely want to kill her even more.
The He family couldn't protect her at all.
Or rather, in the capital, apart from His Majesty and Yun Chuwei, there is no third person who can protect her.
Yun Chuwei did not speak.
Seeing that Yun Chuwei remained unmoved, Yun Lianhua turned to Yun Zheng beside her and said, "Second brother, the reason you turned back to save me must be because you didn't want to see me die, right? Please beg my sister for me, okay?"
As she spoke, she turned to Yun Zheng and kowtowed again.
Yun Zheng looked at Yun Lianhua and said earnestly, "The reason I turned back to save you was because I happened to see the Crown Prince sending people to kill you. And I felt that you might have something on you or in your possession that could be detrimental to the Crown Prince. I only care about that thing, not whether you live or die. Understand?"
Yun Lianhua choked and couldn't speak.
She naturally understood what Yun Zheng meant.
She turned her head and looked at Nineteen.
Nineteen flashed to Yun Zheng's side, even using Yun Zheng's body to block himself.
Yun Lianhua: ...
Left with no other choice, she had to confront Yun Chuwei directly.
Yun Lianhua pondered for a moment, then said to Yun Chuwei, "You sent people to rescue me, so you must want me to do something for you, right? If you don't protect me, I'll die right here and ruin your plans!"
She didn't want to die; she just felt that if she wanted to live, she had to act as if she wasn't afraid of death! And she used this to threaten Yun Chuwei.
"Seems like you've developed a little brain," Yun Chuwei looked at Yun Lianhua, chuckled, and slowly said, "but not much. Indeed, your return to the capital alive is useful to me. Because you're alive, you can make the Crown Prince lose his composure. Not only can he not kill you, but you've also fallen into my hands, and he must be panicking now. When people panic, they're prone to doing stupid things. That's all you're good for. The fact that you're kneeling here means my goal has been achieved. Who cares whether you live or die?"
Yun Lianhua's face paled slightly. She looked up at Yun Chuwei, speechless.
"However, on the other hand, if you were to kill yourself here now, I could throw you into the Eastern Palace and frame the Crown Prince. That would be another use for you. Do you want to kill yourself now?" Yun Chuwei continued.
Yun Lianhua: ...
Now, she finally understands.
Her threats against Yun Chuwei were ineffective.
She trembled slightly, lying on the ground in despair, her forehead pressed against the floor.
She pleaded, "Sister, I want to live! Please give me a way out!"
If you wanted to die, you would have died in Jizhou.
She had gone through so much trouble to return to the capital; how could she accept dying like this?
Yun Chuwei quietly observed Yun Lianhua for a long time, and seeing that she remained motionless, she slowly said, "Actually, I can give you a way out. Go and beat the Dengwen Drum, accuse Xie Sheng of forcing women into prostitution and harming the people. I will guarantee your life!"
Yun Lianhua's fists clenched tightly: "If I do this, will I really survive?"
Yun Chuwei said casually, "Trust me, and there's hope for survival. Don't trust me, and you'll die. The choice is yours!"
Yun Lianhua lay on the ground for a long time before finally speaking decisively: "I'll go!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Chuwei laughed and slowly said, "That's right! Nineteen, take her there. Don't let her die!"
Nineteen quickly agreed, then went to Yun Lianhua's side and helped her up.
Nineteen said indifferently, "Second Miss, let's go!"
Yun Lianhua clenched her fists and turned to walk away.
When she arrived at the entrance of the main hall, she suddenly turned around and looked at Yun Chuwei.
She said, "Yun Chuwei, you're right! So-called favor is worthless. Everything still depends on yourself. So, am I considered to be relying on myself now?"
She did these things in hopes of finding a way out.
Is he relying on himself, or on Yun Chuwei?
Yun Chuwei curled the corners of her lips and slowly said, "Why are you asking me? What does it have to do with me?"
Yun Lianhua frowned, then said, "That's right, I shouldn't have asked you! I should have asked myself!"
Yes, it's useless for her to ask Yun Chuwei.
It doesn't really matter anymore. Whether I rely on myself or Yun Chuwei this time, surviving is the most important thing.
If she survives this time, she will definitely live on her own.
She no longer cares about other people's affection!
Yun Lianhua took a deep breath, turned around, and walked outside.
Nineteen followed Yun Lianhua and hurriedly left.
After watching Yun Lianhua leave, Yun Zheng came to Yun Chuwei's side and whispered, "Why do I feel that Yun Lianhua seems to have changed?"
Yun Chuwei's lips curled slightly as she casually said, "It doesn't matter, it won't affect the plan!"
Yun Zheng nodded, then said, "Can Yun Lianhua bring down the Crown Prince by suing him?"
Yun Chuwei shook her head: "I didn't expect her to actually bring down the Crown Prince."
Before Emperor Tianqi gave up on Xie Sheng, no one could bring him down.
And she couldn't fathom what the Heavenly Emperor was thinking.
But she felt that there might only be one way to make Emperor Tianqi completely give up on a crown prince.
That was the Crown Prince's rebellion.
What she's doing now serves two purposes.
First, it was to make Emperor Tianqi gradually lose patience with the crown prince.
Secondly, it was to gradually make the crown prince and empress lose faith in the emperor.
When these two conditions accumulate to a sufficient level, then a rebellion may occur.
