Chapter 909 - Peace talk
Jin’er wanted to talk but stopped. And simply sighed inside her heart. She didn’t say a single word.
Qian Hua helped his sister to sit down in the chair and he asked, “Are you really alright?”
Qian Fang nodded her head immediately: “I’m really okay. Imperial Brother, it’s great that you can come back safely. Did Song Lang let you go? I knew that he wouldn’t do anything bad to you. You two are good to each other. Sometimes I even feel jealous.”
Qian Hua frowned. He didn’t know how he will tell his sister that he was not released by Song Lang, but was actually rescued by Bai Zhi. The two of them escaped together.
Qian Fang said again: “Imperial Brother, how is Song Lang now? Is he okay?”
Qian Hua frowned his eyebrows even more and said in displeasure: “You still think of him now? Don’t you know who caused you to become like this?”
Qian Fang bitterly smiled: “This is what I owe him, I should pay him back. I don’t blame him.”
Jin’er saw the atmosphere was gloomy so she quickly said: “His Royal Highness, Miss Bai’s medical skills are very good. She said that she can heal the princess’s legs, so she will definitely be healed. You see that the princess can walk now. Soon the princess will be able to run and jump like before.”
Qian Hua shook his head: “You believe what she says? How old is she? How can she cure something that the Imperial Hospital can’t cure?”
Jin’er hurriedly said: “Miss Bai’s medical skills are really good. The princess has been unconscious for so long before. It was Miss Bai who rescued the princess and healed the princess’s legs.”
Prince Qian Hua waved his hand: “Okay, don’t talk about it anymore. Since your legs are almost healed, we will leave the capital tomorrow.”
Qian Fang was taken aback: “Leave tomorrow?”
Qian Hua said, “What? Do you want to stay here? Our whole group is destroyed, not a single envoy left, what peace talk is there to talk about?”
Qian Fang didn’t want to go back. She didn’t want to go back to that cage, where she would never be truly free.
“Imperial Brother, although we don’t have a mission right now, you are still here. Imperial Father sent us to express our sincerity to negotiate peace. Now, although most of the responsibility lies with our Jin Country, the Chu Country is also responsible for this.”
Qian Hua shook his head: “I am now the crown prince. How can I fight with Chu’s officials? Wouldn’t we simply lose the prestige of our country? It is better to go back and discuss the peace issue later.”
Qian Fang became anxious: “Imperial Brother, if we go back like this, we will really lose the prestige of our Jin Country. You are the crown prince. If you can fight against the officials in the Chu and not be defeated, wouldn’t you show our country’s power even more?”
Although his sister’s words were reasonable, he had never done such a thing. He knew his bottom line. Besides, he was worried about Song Lang’s safety in his heart. He didn’t want to stay here for a moment.
“No need to say more, I will leave the capital tomorrow, and discuss the matter of peace later.” He got up and planned to go out, but Bai Zhi walked in at this moment. She was outside all along. She heard the dialogue between the brothers and sisters clearly.
“I’m afraid Princess Qian Fang can’t leave tomorrow.”
Qian Hua frowned and stared at Bai Zhi displeased: “What did you say?”
Bai Zhi smiled lightly: “I said, Princess Qianfang can’t leave tomorrow. She was poisoned by Song Lang, and the poison has not been solved, so she can’t leave.”
Qian Hua looked back at Qian Fang and saw that she looked and act normal. There was no sign of poisoning.
“Don’t talk nonsense, the princess is in good condition. How can she be poisoned? Don’t be an alarmist here.” Qian Hua’s cold eyes fell on Bai Zhi’s body. For some reason, he particularly hated this young lady in front of him. He gets annoyed just by looking at her.
