"Sister, I really don't understand what you are saying." Cheng Wanxin was still pretending not to understand, but her eyes began to avoid Cheng Songan, and her voice also changed a little.

Cheng Songan smiled slightly. She could only stop there and scare Cheng Wanxin but couldn't really do anything to her.

Confirming this is equivalent to confirming that those people fighting outside are the guards sent by King Xiang!

As the Prince of Xiang, he was an invaluable prince. Even if he was out of favor or in a dormant stage, he still had many privileges over ordinary ministers. If he killed Cheng Wanxin and the child at this moment, even if he did not pursue the matter now, he could never be sure that he would bring up the past in the future.

Even though Cheng Wanxin had given birth to a child for him in his previous life and raised the child in Cui's mansion, King Xiang still took action against the Cheng family after he ascended the throne, dismissed his father from his position, and demoted him back to Yizhou.

Furthermore, the King of Xiang did not dare to marry Cheng Wanxin directly to his palace as a concubine, for two reasons. First, Cheng Wanxin and Cheng Songan were both daughters of Cheng Daxueshi. If he married the second daughter, everyone would regard him, Cui Yuanqing, and Cheng Zhongwen as a party, and his intention to seize the throne would be made public. Secondly, he had to consider the Princess of Xiang. After all, he could only rely on the Ming family at present. It didn't matter if there were concubines of low status in the palace, but if he married the daughter of Cheng Daxueshi as a concubine, the Princess of Xiang would inevitably have a rift with him.

Cheng Songan had spent a lot of effort to gain the trust of the Princess of Xiang, and asked them to be polite and courteous, and to give her a zither as a gift to show their intention to recruit her. If she made a wrong move at this moment, it would bring danger to herself. If she killed Cheng Wanxin, the King of Xiang would turn against her, but if she helped the King of Xiang to hide the truth from the Princess of Xiang, the Princess of Xiang would no longer trust her when the truth came out.

The couple fought at the head of the bed and made up at the foot of the bed, but if Cheng Songan did more at this time, he would make more mistakes. The best way was to use Cheng Wanxin to break the deadlock.

"Wanxin, I'm not the one you should deal with." Cheng Songan's voice was full of temptation, and he leaned close to her cheek, "Sister wants to give Cui Yuanqing to you."

Cheng Wanxin's eyes were filled with vigilance, and she didn't quite believe what she said, but she was deeply moved and had a little expectation. She asked hesitantly, "Sister has admired Yuan Qing since she was a child. How could you change your mind so suddenly?"

Cheng Songan had a miserable look on his face, and said sadly, "You told me how he treated me in the past, how could you forget? People's hearts will not change, I see through it."

Cheng Wanxin's eyes relaxed, but then she said coldly: "Sister, you worry too much. Yuan Qing treats you differently now, not to mention that sister just said that he asked for a title for you."

Cheng Songan smiled faintly: "Wanxin, you can always tell the difference between a man's sincerity and falsehood, right? Take the King of Xiang for example. You are pregnant with his child. Can he take you into the palace? How can Lord Cui be an exception? He asked for the imperial decree for me just to reassure my father and for the peace of the harem. Do you really think that he loves me more than me?"

Cheng Wanxin is very smart, thoughtful, and ruthless. She can easily manipulate Prince Xiang, Cui Yuanqing, and even Cheng Songan, but she values ​​Cui Yuanqing too much and is trapped by love, which makes her weak.

Seeing her relax, Cheng Songan whispered, "Wanxin, we both know why my child is gone, but Cui Yuanqing doesn't believe it. He would rather I be sad and move to Yuqiao Villa than doubt you."

Cheng Wanxin's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and there was no sign on her face, but the emotions in her eyes could not be concealed. She still said in a calm tone: "Sister lost her child, it was not Wanxin's business, not to mention that Sister is so young, it will be easy for her to have children in the future."

Seeing that he had finally gotten to the point, Cheng Songan said sadly, "Since I've moved to Yuqiao Villa, I don't plan to reconcile with him. With the imperial decree in hand and no divorce, my sister's life will be like this. I hated you very much at first, but now...what can I do about the imperial decree?"

Cheng Wanxin didn't respond.

"After all, you and I both have the blood of the Cheng family. I can't really kill you." Cheng Songan coaxed, "How about I fulfill your wish and you fulfill mine?"

Cheng Wanxin couldn't help but ask, "What do you want me to do?"

Cheng Songan smiled imperceptibly, but his face was gloomy: "It will be difficult for me to have children in this life, so why don't you give birth to the child and send it to Yuqiao Villa, so that I will have someone to rely on for the rest of my life. As for you, I will help you enter Cui Mansion..."

Before he could finish his words, the door banged open and Cui Yuanqing, dressed in court robes and with a gloomy face, stood in front of the room. It was obvious that he had kicked the door open with such a loud noise.

Cheng Wanxin shuddered, as if she was really frightened, and stammered, "Yuan Qing!"

Cui Yuanqing didn't look at her, but stared at Cheng Songan and said, "You, come back with me."

Before she could answer, Cheng Wanxin stood up and said, "Yuanqing, don't be like this to your sister. She didn't do anything to me..."

Cheng Songan rolled his eyes at Cui Yuanqing and said pointedly, "Lord Cui came here after leaving the palace without even changing his clothes. It seems like he is really worried that I will hurt my second sister."

Cui Yuanqing's already gloomy face turned even darker. He moved his jaw but did not speak.

Cheng Wanxin's eyelashes were filled with tears, and she seemed to be crying but not quite.

Cui Yuanqing took a step forward, bent down and stretched out his hand to Cheng Songan: "Go back!"

Cheng Songan looked at Cheng Wanxin helplessly and whispered, "Second sister, I was just trying to scare you. The golden needles were taken from Doctor Sun and are not poisonous... Think about what I said today..."

After saying this, he looked at Cui Yuanqing with resentment and said, "If you dare to do anything to me when we get back, I will take the imperial edict and report it to the Saint."

Cui Yuanqing blocked her mouth with one hand, lifted her waist with one hand, and carried her out almost under his armpit. Before leaving, he said to Cheng Wanxin: "Your sister came here today because I didn't pay enough attention to her. She was too sad, and some of her words and actions were inappropriate. Don't take it to heart."

Cheng Wanxin's eyes were filled with surprise that could not be concealed. She bowed slightly and said, "What are you talking about, sir? We are sisters, how could I bother with my elder sister?"

Cui Yuanqing said nothing more. He went straight out of the courtyard and walked down the mountain for a while before putting Cheng Songan down. He asked coldly, "What did you say just now?"

Cheng Songan curled his lips: "Didn't you hear everything?"

He didn't just arrive. It was only after he arrived that the secret guards in the courtyard stopped.

It was for this reason that she confirmed that the father of Cheng Wanxin's child was King Xiang, and the guards were all sent by King Xiang. Li Wenbin was not strong enough to fight, and he would only stop if Cui Yuanqing came. But if it was Cui Yuanqing's own people, he would not have to listen outside for so long before kicking the door in.

Cui Yuanqing gritted his teeth and said, "You helped her enter the Cui Mansion? And you want to raise her child?"

Cheng Songan: “Yes.”

It was the same in the previous life, but this time, she was the one who brought it up first, but the process and results will never be the same!
