“Sir, I had no choice but to bring you to the Daliang Dynasty.” Shen Miao said, “Now that we’re here, what are your plans for the future?” She paused for a moment. “Back then, I forced you to do what you didn’t want to do. I really feel guilty for causing you to leave your country. If you want to leave, that’s fine.”

Hearing this, Pei Lang looked at Shen Miao in surprise.

All along, when Shen Miao faced him, for some reason, she always behaved and spoke in a righteous manner. From the beginning, when she threatened Pei Lang with Liu Ying, Pei Lang had vaguely sensed that Shen Miao was hostile to him, but it was not just hostility. Pei Lang had also investigated carefully because he was puzzled, but in the end, he found nothing.

!!

At this moment, when Shen Miao faced him, her hostility was gone. It was as if she had let go of something. She was very calm, but it made Pei Lang a little disappointed. It was as if something special had disappeared as Shen Miao let go of something.

Shen Miao looked at Pei Lang and felt a little emotional.

She had always defined Pei Lang as someone who owed her a lot. However, that day, when Xie Jingxing said that Pei Lang was locked up in Fu Xiuyi’s dungeon and tortured but did not betray her, Shen Miao changed her opinion about Pei Lang. Shen Miao knew how rushless Fu Xiuyi was when it came to punishing the traitors. Under such circumstances, Pei Lang did not yield. Shen Miao didn’t know how she should feel about that.

Now that she thought about it, the reason why she hated Pei Lang and was angry with him was because Pei Lang had been on Fu Xiuyi’s side from the beginning to the end. When Fu Xiuyi dealt with the Shen family, Pei Lang chose to stand by and do nothing. Even when the crown prince was deposed, he did not say a word for Fu Ming. When Wanyu was married off to Xiongnu, he did not try to stop it either.

However, in this world, no one was obliged to help another person. Pei Lang’s relationship with her was not to the extent where he would risk his life to help her.

In this life, Pei Lang was no longer Fu Xiuyi’s man. He had even turned against Fu Xiuyi and had no reason to pledge loyalty to him again. Therefore, Shen Miao let go of the hostility.

Revenge was something that she had to rely on herself. Hatred or resentment was not going to help.

Pei Lang suppressed the disappointment in his heart and said, “What are your plans for the future?”

Shen Miao was stunned. “Me?”

Pei Lang’s gaze suddenly became sharp as he said, “Prince Rui is not as invincible as he looks on the surface. I think a storm is brewing in the Daliang Dynasty.”

He looked at Shen Miao. “Even if the Daliang Dynasty has nothing to do with me and Prince Rui has a way to protect himself, your path might not be smooth.”

Shen Miao frowned slightly. “That’s true. But why are you telling me this…”

“I can help you,” Pei Lang said.

Shen Miao asked, “Sir?”

“Although I’m not considered a talent in statecraft, I can still do my best. Liu Ying and I are both relying on you to gain a foothold in the Daliang Dynasty now. The better your life is and the more stable your position is, the better our lives will be. Even if it’s for my own sake, I have to help you. I want to stay in Prince Rui’s mansion.” He paused. “If I can also participate in the state affairs of the Daliang Dynasty or give counsel on your matters when needed, it might be better.”

After a moment of silence, Shen Miao said, “Sir, think about it carefully. You don’t owe me anything. There’s no need for you to be on the same boat with me. You don’t have to rely on me. With your ability, you can live a good life. You’re not a person who chases fame and fortune.”

Pei Lang smiled bitterly in his heart. Shen Miao seemed to know him very well, even better than he himself.

He said, “This is my choice.”

Shen Miao took a deep breath. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Jingzhe walk in with an exquisite invitation. She said, “Madam, the invitation to the Summer Banquet has been sent over. It’s said that it’s an invitation to Princess Consort Rui. I accepted it. Madam, take a look.”

As soon as Shen Miao arrived at the Daliang Dynasty, someone sent an invitation. This would be the first time she would appear in the circle of noble ladies in Long Ye. The other party clearly had ulterior motives.

She asked, “Who sent the invitation?”

“It’s from Mrs. Lu, the wife of General Lu.”

Shen Miao paused.

The Ye family and the Lu family seemed to have an extremely subtle relationship with the royal family of the Daliang Dynasty.

They really did not come with good intentions.
