After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall

Chapter 320 It’s no accident

After the prince was arrested, she had to make a plan for his disposal. Just as she was about to leave the palace, her father caught up with her and asked anxiously, "Han'er, what if things develop out of control and even endanger our Chen family?"

Faced with this situation, Chen Qinghan's expression had long since stopped changing, and he silently accepted this outcome in his heart.

"Father, since he was willing to take the risk of me and join King Xuan's camp, didn't he prepare for the worst?"

Her response was full of irony and also reflected the cruel side of reality.

Mr. Chen was speechless for a moment - after all, King Xuan was of prominent and respected status at that time, and both his power and status were awe-inspiring.

His mansion was magnificent and every time he went out, countless people lined the streets to welcome him.

Who could have expected that this once-mighty prince would one day fall into such a situation?

But who could have foreseen the outcome of today?

Things are unpredictable!

"Han'er," he said in a trembling voice, "we can't just sit there and wait for death! Think about how I happily held you in my hands and raised you when you were born. I have worked hard to raise you over the years. You can't bear to watch our family follow in the footsteps of the Jiang family, right? Think about it, you haven't had a chance to see your newborn nephew yet. Do you really want to watch your dearest relatives suffer misfortunes one by one?"

Hearing this, the girl's clear and bright eyes flashed with emotion, but were quickly covered by coldness: "Father... the situation has developed to this stage, I am afraid that even King Xuan himself is powerless to save the situation."

The old father quietly approached his daughter and whispered, "Just now I noticed that Lord Meng seems to be under the command of the current favored prince... maybe he can help."

Chen Qinghan's face darkened instantly upon hearing this, and he almost squeezed out water: "Are you asking me to go and ask that person for help myself? Don't forget, wasn't it because of his career that I was suppressed in the first place? Now you actually expect me to lower my posture and admit my mistakes to the other party and ask for help?"

Master Chen quickly explained: "I know this is very difficult for you to accept, but the situation is extremely urgent now. We have no other choice but this way out. You should know that he has always had a good impression of you. If you can show some kindness again, maybe you can awaken his good memories of the past and help him save our family."

"In that case, please go by yourself, father," she responded coldly, turning around and preparing to leave before she finished her words.

Watching his daughter walk away, the old man could not help but loudly rebuke her: "You just watched our entire Chen family fall into a desperate situation and stood by and did nothing? When the last moment comes, even if you can get away with it, how can you escape responsibility!"

However, Chen Qinghan only paused for a moment before continuing to walk forward, leaving behind a cold and indifferent remark without even turning back: "For me, life and death are no longer important."

Song Yanyi walked out of the hall slowly holding Cui Rong's hand.

The air outside is moist and fresh, as if every breath inhaled into the lungs has become particularly comfortable and relaxed.

Passing through the winding, quiet and long path between rows of majestic palace buildings, we finally arrived outside Fengyi Palace.

At this moment, bursts of shrill screams were still coming from not far away.

Although they were some distance apart, they could still hear it clearly - it was Jiang Xuejun who was being whipped as punishment.

Each blow from the stick caused her to wail and cry even more hysterically.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, which made everyone who smelled it feel terrified.

She screamed with all her might: "Xu Cui Rongrong! I will never let you go even if I turn into a ghost!"

Hearing this, Cui Rong paused slightly and then looked back involuntarily - all she saw was the magnificent and solid palace walls that towered into the clouds and blocked out the sun, blocking her entire view.

"Are you scared?"

Song Yanyi asked softly.

He watched the changing expressions of the beauty beside him with concern.

Cui Rong gently shook her head: "Compared to the unreal things, what really scares me is the unfathomable and unpredictable depth of the human heart."

If souls exist in this world, why am I still experiencing such suffering and torture here?

"The so-called ghosts and gods are nothing but absurd rumors and legends. In the dark and dirty dungeons, countless innocent prisoners lose their lives every day. Before they die, they shout out their desire to become evil spirits for revenge, which is just their last helpless struggle against the inevitable fate that is about to come. In fact, all of this is meaningless and worthless."

There was a stinging sarcasm in his tone as he said this.

"Why were the Imperial Guards so overwhelmed that the city gates were easily captured by the rebels?" Cui Rongrong suddenly raised such a question.

"Because the person currently in charge of this unit is Jiang Chao, who was promoted by King Xuan to this position. This person is arrogant and domineering because he relies on his strong status and background. He indulges in a life of luxury, singing and dancing, and socializing all day long. He completely ignores the effective management of his subordinates and the deployment and command of the military."

"As for Wang Zhi, he is a chess piece that I specially planted and cultivated. After years of management and layout, his personal sphere of influence gradually expanded and expanded until he even surpassed the influence of the previous leader and became the real controller behind the overall situation. In fact, it did not take too much energy to implement this series of action plans."

He replied calmly.

After hearing this, Cui Rong was extremely surprised and looked up at the man with an expression of disbelief on her face: it turned out that everything that happened was not just accidental but the result of the other party's careful planning for a long time!

No wonder he had specially fostered a group of new talents such as Su Yan to rise and grow stronger before this...

At first I thought that this person really had compassion and was willing to help the weak groups fight for their rights and status.

But now after thinking about it carefully, I find that the truth is far more complicated and bizarre than I imagined.

After noticing that the pace of the woman beside him had become much slower, Song Yanyi stopped and asked with concern: "Are you feeling a little tired and can't walk anymore?"

Without waiting for her to finish, Song Yanyi bent down, picked the girl up from the ground and held her in his arms.

She felt really shy to display her affection in broad daylight in front of so many people, not to mention that she would have to pass through long corridors where she would inevitably meet many servants and guards passing by.

"Put me down, I can still walk by myself!"

Song Yanyi replied in a low but firm voice: "The wound has not yet fully healed, please do not force yourself to walk."

It was obviously him who forced himself to hold me up!
