Shen Shengbei's trip to the clan's mansion was naturally not as smooth as Yan Yunuo's. Bai Pei had already received Su Wan's order, and all men were not allowed in.
Shen Shengbei, who was rejected from the door, could only stand outside the gate of the Zongren's mansion, looking at the high-walled compound in front of him—
Su Wan, why don't you see me
He left the Zongren Mansion in despair, and when Shen Shengbei returned to the guard camp, he saw that Xu Bingyue had been waiting in his room for a long time.
"Brother Shen, are you out?"
Seeing that Shen Shengbei's face was not good, Xu Bingyue couldn't help but asked with concern.
"I... I went to the Zongren Mansion."
Shen Shengbei replied absentmindedly, and upon hearing his words, Xu Bingyue immediately became nervous: "Brother Shen, then... have you seen Sister Su Wan?"
Shen Shengbei shook his head, turned and sat on the wooden chair beside him: "She refuses to see me. Bingyue, do you think she doesn't believe me? In fact, I always believed that she was innocent!"
"Brother Shen."
Hearing Shen Shengbei's words, Xu Bingyue's eyes flickered slightly, and her face also showed a very anxious look: "Brother Shen, perhaps you have misunderstood Sister Su Wan, when such a thing happened, maybe she... doesn't want to implicate you? "
"right!"
Hearing Xu Bingyue's words, Shen Shengbei's eyes lit up: "Bingyue, you are right! Xiaowan must not want to implicate me, she is too kind, and now she refuses to see me, how can I express myself What are your thoughts?"
Frowning and hesitating for a moment, Shen Shengbei suddenly raised his head and looked brightly at Xu Bingyue in front of him: "Bingyue, help me go to Zongren Mansion to see Su Wan! If it is you, she will definitely see you. How about you relay my meaning to her, make her believe me, and let her see me?"
"This… "
Hearing Shen Shengbei's request, Xu Bingyue's little face showed a hint of hesitation: "Brother Shen, you don't know, sister Xiaowan is very stubborn, and the things she decides are difficult to change, I'm afraid I'll just say it like this in the past. White Fang told her she wouldn't believe it unless..."
Xu Bingyue's gaze fell on Shen Shengbei's waist. Next to the sword he was wearing was a jade pendant, which was the token of his engagement with Su Wan.
"Brother Shen, you give me the token between you, and I will show it to Sister Su Wan. The jade pendant is the proof, she should believe your sincerity!"
At this time, Xu Bingyue was serious and sincere. Hearing her words, Shen Shengbei naturally had no doubts, but after hesitating for a while, he thought about it in his heart: "Then I will trouble you Bingyue!"
With that said, Shen Shengbei untied the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to Xu Bingyue's hands solemnly.
Xu Bingyue was excited and nervous when she got the jade pendant, but she still showed a very serious and serious look on her face: "Brother Shen, don't worry! I will definitely give this jade pendant to Sister Su Wan."
Firmly clenching the jade pendant in her palm, Xu Bingyue's eyes flashed fiercely—
How can this Shen family's Yu Pei Su Wan be a sinner worthy of it
This jade pendant will be his own, sooner or later it will be his own!
…
The next day, Zongren's house.
Early in the morning, Xu Bingyue and Mistress Liao took a leave of absence from the harem and came to the Zongren Mansion with the token to leave the palace.
At this time, Su Wan had just woken up. The days here are really comfortable, and the cell has always been day and night. Last night, she was bored and played chess with Su Rui in the cell. It's been a while, if it wasn't for Wang Yi's later reminder, the two of them would be down until morning.
After Su Rui went to the morning court, Su Wan didn't eat breakfast on time but took a restful sleep, so when Xu Bingyue came in, she saw Su Wan looking sleepy and listless.
"Sister Su Wan."
Xu Bingyue handed some pieces of silver to the female supervisor who was in charge of Su Wan, who immediately opened the cell door for her. Seeing that there were no scars on Su Wan's body, Xu Bingyue's eyes narrowed, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes were full of water. Wang Wang's: "Sister, you have suffered these days!"
The tears came so fast!
Seeing that Xu Bingyue's acting skills were so superb, Su Wan had to cooperate with her to show a reluctant smile: "The case hasn't been tried yet, so I feel comfortable now."
"After that... Sister Su Wan, what if you are actually convicted?"
It is a capital offense for a palace maid to have an affair with someone! And the object of this fornication is still Prince Rui.
In fact, Xu Bingyue didn't believe that Su Wanhui had an affair with King Rui, and if it was Yan Yuqing who was restless, she still believed it.
But what does it matter? It doesn't matter whether she believes it or not, the main thing is that His Majesty believes it, and more importantly, she wants Shen Shengbei to believe it!
"If it's really a death sentence, I'll admit it."
Su Wan sighed: "I just want you to worry about me, I'm very sorry."
"Sister Su Wan, what are you talking about? We are sisters, so naturally we have to share weal and woe. And Brother Shen..."
Speaking of Shen Shengbei, Xu Bingyue's eyes flickered a few times: "Sister, why don't you see Big Brother Shen? We both really want to help you, want to save you out, you haven't seen him, he's... very Worried!"
Xu Bingyue deliberately used words like "the two of us" in order to attract Su Wan's attention.
Sure enough, when Su Wan heard Xu Bingyue's words, she seemed to hesitate for a while, with a suspicious look on her face, but at this time Xu Bingyue deliberately took a few steps forward and lifted her palace skirt: "Come on sister, you are weak, I will support you. you order."
The moment she moved, the jade pendant on her waist was immediately exposed.
Seeing the jade pendant that Xu Bingyue was carrying with her, Su Wan froze, her pale face slowly raised her hand, and her fingers lightly touched the jade pendant on Xu Bingyue's waist: "Bingyue, this jade pendant, this is Jade is…”
"Ah? This jade pendant!"
Xu Bingyue suddenly let go of the hands that were supporting Su Wan, her pretty face full of panic: "Sister Su Wan, this jade pendant was not given to me by Brother Shen, it was bought by myself. I bought it myself. Does that look good on yours? So I just…”
"Don't lie to me."
Su Wan's expression was a little complicated: "The bottom of this jade pendant is also engraved with a small inscription. This is the Songxi family passed down from their Shen family. I will not admit it wrong."
Seeing Su Wan's determination, Xu Bingyue immediately knelt down on the side: "Sister Su Wan, I'm not sorry for you, but Shengbei and I, we really love each other! In fact, I have always wanted to make this happen. I told you, but... I'm afraid you won't be able to take the blow. Now that something like this happened to you, Shengbei and I can't bear to tell you about it! Sister Su Wan, everything is my fault, I can't help it, Don't blame Brother Shengbei, he didn't lie to you on purpose! Don't blame him, hate me if you want, and blame me if you want to!"
Saying that, Xu Bingyue raised her head with tears on her face, and grabbed Su Wan's white prison uniform with both hands: "Sister, if you want to beat or scold, Bingyue has no complaints."
Su Wan took a few steps back with an ugly face, her whole body trembling slightly.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Xu Bingyue had to cry harder.
"never mind."
Su Wan gently brushed away Xu Bingyue's hands holding her clothes: "This may be fate. When I'm gone, and you take care of him, I'll be relieved."
"Sister Su Wan?"
When Xu Bingyue heard Su Wan's words, she immediately stood up and grabbed her arm excitedly: "Are you willing to forgive us?"
"Emotions cannot be forced. Since you truly love each other, the marriage contract between me and him is irrelevant."
With that said, Su Wan turned around and went back to her bedside, and took out her jade pendant: "If you return this to him, it will be returned to the original owner."
"thanks, thanks."
Xu Bingyue held the jade pendant that Su Wan handed over in her hand. This time, her heart was truly at ease—
This time, Su Wan has completely broken her heart for Shen Shengbei, so even if Shen Shengbei finds someone to intercede, Su Wan will never see him again.
And with this jade pendant, he will have a reason to go back to Shen Shengbei!
Xu Bingyue, who had achieved her goal, perfunctory words with Su Wan, then turned around and left in a hurry. Looking at the back of her leaving, Su Wan could imagine that she must have a proud expression on her face at this time—
Xu Bingyue, let's make you proud for a while.
Soon, you won't be complacent.
