Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 260 - 196: A Few Matters Before the Resurrection

Chapter 260: Chapter 196: A Few Matters Before the Resurrection

Song Yan expressed her suspicions to Wen Ranchen, speculating on the reason why, if the Princess was indeed harmed by an alliance of several countries.

If not, then why would an arrow stamped with the insignia of the Five Nations appear on the Princess, and what is the true motive of the culprit?

Judging from the Princess’s behavior in recent days, her death was not accidental, and they must find the culprit to avenge her.

Listening to Song Yan’s analysis, the despair in Wen Ranchen’s eyes gradually turned into hatred. His temporarily regained rationality told him that Song Yan’s speculations were very likely.

He had to avenge the Princess.

Before he completely perishes.

Wen Ranchen suddenly left without a word, returning later with a basin of clear water and clean clothes.

He silently began to clean the blood stains in the room, and the once clear water was quickly stained red with blood. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Wen Ranchen then went to change for another basin of clean water.

After repeating this six or seven times, the blood stains on the floor were finally wiped clean.

Wen Ranchen’s gaze returned to Shen Jingxian, and at that moment, the pain surging from his heart was still unbearable.

But even if he couldn’t bear it, he must let his wife leave clean and pure.

Wen Ranchen gently lifted Shen Jingxian and carefully removed the arrows piercing her one by one.

He then brought a clean towel to wipe away the blood stains on her body.

Even the blood stains tangled in her hair were meticulously washed clean.

Just like usual, Wen Ranchen dried Shen Jingxian’s hair with his inner strength, softly murmuring, "You always like to run around with wet hair, be careful of catching a cold."

Shen Jingxian didn’t retort as she usually would, but Wen Ranchen continued talking to himself, "Be patient, it will be better soon."

Having tidied Shen Jingxian up, Wen Ranchen pretended not to see the holes in her caused by the arrows, dressing her in clean clothes.

Wen Ranchen purposely chose a red dress, so even if blood stains dyed the dress red again, it wouldn’t be easily noticeable.

Besides, his wife looked beautiful in red.

Song Yan stood silently by the side, like an invisible person, without uttering a word.

Only when Wen Ranchen placed Shen Jingxian on the bed and covered her with a blanket did Song Yan speak again.

"About the Princess... we can’t let this matter be known for now. I have a plan to fulfill the Princess’s wish."

Song Yan originally intended to say "the Princess’s death," but hesitated with the word "death" lingering on her lips for a while, unable to say it, had to express it in another way.

Wen Ranchen only heard two words, "What wish?"

"Her Highness said she wants to be the Empress."

"I will conquer the world and give it to her," Wen Ranchen said tenderly, gazing at Shen Jingxian’s serene face.

"You know, it’s far more than that."

Wen Ranchen didn’t answer, just kept staring at Shen Jingxian, as if never getting enough of her.

Song Yan didn’t urge him, knowing that Wen Ranchen certainly understood her meaning.

No one knew how long they had sat there before Wen Ranchen spoke again, "Can you perform the Disguise Technique?"

Song Yan smiled confidently, "Of course, and... I know Her Highness as well as anyone."

Wen Ranchen reached out to touch Shen Jingxian’s face, the soft feeling like... she was merely asleep.

Wen Ranchen closed his eyes and tenderly kissed Shen Jingxian’s forehead.

When he opened his eyes again, all warmth was gone.

"Song Yan, if you develop thoughts you shouldn’t have, I will kill you."

"Wen Ranchen, if you betray Her Highness, I won’t spare you either."

The two held their ground, yet ultimately reached a consensus.

The Princess’s death must be kept secret, first to lure the enemy into a trap and uncover the true culprit.

Secondly, a person must be alive to be crowned Empress.

In the end, besides Wen Ranchen and Song Yan, only the Emperor and Empress knew the true situation concerning the Princess.

Song Yan and Wen Ranchen were unwilling to hide it from the Emperor and Empress, and besides, they couldn’t deceive them.

No matter how familiar Song Yan was with the Princess, how advanced her Disguise Technique was, she couldn’t fool the Emperor and Empress.

Song Yan explained to the Emperor and Empress her and Wen Ranchen’s suspicions, using the word "revenge" to reignite the Emperor and Empress’s belief, earning their full support.

However, the Princess’s wish was kept from the Emperor and Empress by Song Yan and Wen Ranchen.

The Princess’s eighteenth birthday ended hastily under the pretense of her being unwell, but to avoid suspicion, the Empress stayed at the banquet for a long time before leaving.

That night, some people were bound to be sleepless.

The one who couldn’t sleep the most was Shi Wang; he was busy, extremely busy.
