Chapter 458: Explanation
"You don't need to think too much about it. People who grow up in the palace all know how to act to some extent, just to survive. You can't see through him, but you can understand it."
Fearing that Song Miqiu might misunderstand, Yu Huailin quickly explained.
Song Miqiu looked up at Yu Huailin and asked, "So, he also wants to compete for that position, and he already has a plan, right?"
"He must have planned this a long time ago, but he just hasn't taken action yet. He already has Liuli in the palace, so he should be making a move soon."
Yu Huailin didn't know exactly when the Seventh Prince would make a move, but he felt it should be soon.
Song Miqiu nodded slightly: "I understand. I thought we would be on the same path before, but I was wrong. In the end, we are not on the same path."
"But you should also be careful. He knows your abilities, and he might come looking for you for help at any time."
He might stop at nothing to achieve his goals, so you must be careful not to fall into his trap.
Yu Huailin was still a little worried, so he spoke directly to Song Miqiu.
"I know, you don't need to worry."
Song Miqiu already knew about the Seventh Prince's cooperation with Liuli, but they were unaware of it and felt that what they were doing was very discreet.
The one who is most anxious now is Liuli. After she arrived in the Cold Palace, although she had many people serving her, she still could not leave, and the Emperor had not come to see her.
Even the Seventh Prince didn't come looking for her, which made her even more frightened.
She's pregnant, and her pregnancy will be showing soon, but she knows for sure whether she's actually pregnant or not. How could she possibly be showing?
She originally wanted to ask the Seventh Prince for help, but she had no idea how to contact him. She was starting to think that she had been tricked by the Seventh Prince.
Just as Liuli was getting anxious, the Seventh Prince finally appeared, which relieved her.
"Seventh Prince, you've finally arrived. What should we do now? Am I destined to remain in the Cold Palace forever? If so, what about your matter?"
I can't help you with that; you'll probably have to find someone else.
Upon seeing the Seventh Prince, Liuli couldn't help but speak directly.
"Are you threatening me? I was able to rescue you from the palace, and I can certainly send you back. Are you sure you still want to talk to me like this?"
The Seventh Prince sat on a chair to the side, his eyes filled with mockery towards Liuli.
Liuli knew she shouldn't speak to the Seventh Prince like that, but she truly couldn't hold back any longer. She said anxiously, "Seventh Prince, I'm anxious..."
No matter what, I can't let you save me for nothing, but look at the situation now, I can't even see the Emperor, and I can't leave the Cold Palace.
With so many people watching me, what worries me most is the baby in my belly. I'm not pregnant, but according to the stage of pregnancy, I should be showing soon. What should I do?
"You're asking me this? Shouldn't you know a lot about this?" The Seventh Prince was surprised that Liuli was being so foolish.
Liuli frowned slightly: "I had thought it through before, but I can't go out, I can't do anything at all, and besides, I'm showing my pregnancy, I really have no choice."
"Seventh Prince, did you tamper with this pregnancy? What are we going to do now? I really have no other choice."
"I understand. I'll figure something out, but this isn't a long-term solution. You need to think carefully about what to do. Father still has feelings for you."
You must use this emotion to your advantage, to make what you do work in a way that benefits you. Only then can you achieve what you want, understand?
If he hadn't found a partner himself, the Seventh Prince would never have said so much.
Liuli nodded repeatedly: "I know, but Seventh Prince, who do you plan to ask for help? Is this person reliable?"
“Song Miqiu,” the Seventh Prince said.
"What? Seventh Prince, you actually went to her? Do you think I've lived too long? There's no way she'd help us, especially since you're cooperating with me."
She's even less likely to help; let's think of other ways. Other methods seem easier to implement.
Liuli was well aware of her sins against Song Miqiu, who had no chance of helping her, so she still planned to scheme to abort the child.
The Seventh Prince said slowly and deliberately, "She has no idea that the two of us are cooperating. How could she not help me? In her eyes, I am still someone who is indifferent to worldly affairs."
Only then did Liuli realize what she had just said. She was terrified because she felt that Song Miqiu knew about what had happened last time.
So they assumed she really knew everything, which is why they were afraid.
The Seventh Prince knew about the feud between Liuli and Song Miqiu. He looked at her and said, "Regarding Song Miqiu, I advise you not to have any improper thoughts."
You know her capabilities. If we can get her to help us, many things will be much simpler. Don't ruin my plans.
Even if Liuli was unwilling, she had no choice but to listen to the Seventh Prince, since he was her savior.
However, considering the relationship between Yu Huailin and Song Miqiu, she felt that Song Miqiu's promise to help the Seventh Prince was unrealistic, and she still had to give him a reminder.
"Seventh Prince, don't think I'm pouring cold water on you, but Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin have a very special relationship. It's impossible for her to leave Yu Huailin."
They're both very intelligent and trust each other completely. Unless you can break that trust, it's all for naught.
"How do you know all this so clearly? Ah, I remember now, you always liked Yu Huailin, that's why you knew about their relationship, right?"
Then you should tell me everything about them, so I can find a way to bring her to our side.
The Seventh Prince was quite interested in the matter between Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin, so he was determined to find out.
Although Liuli didn't know what the Seventh Prince was planning, she was happy as long as it made Song Miqiu and Yu Huailin suffer.
She told the Seventh Prince everything she knew, down to the smallest detail.
Upon hearing this, the Seventh Prince nodded repeatedly: "I know what to do. The rest is not your concern. Now, what you need to do is..."
"How did you manage to keep your father by your side, ensuring that you're the only one on his mind? As I just mentioned, your father treats you differently from everyone else."
Liuli frowned slightly as she listened to the Seventh Prince's words. This wasn't the first time the Seventh Prince had said something like this, but she couldn't see that the Emperor treated her any differently.
The only difference is that in the case of Wang Jianjun last time, even though the evidence was conclusive, the emperor ordered him to be locked up in the palace.
But instead of being executed, Liuli's eyes suddenly flashed when she thought of this.
