Chapter 1673 She is very good
Chapter 1673 She is very good
The guards and coachman waited outside, puzzled and wondering what had happened to the Crown Prince.
Their carriage remained parked there, and since the Crown Prince had not given the order to continue their journey, they could only continue to wait.
But what are we waiting here for? Prince Jin's wedding procession won't pass through this section of the road.
If Your Highness wishes to see the Prince of Jin in his wedding attire, with a large red flower pinned to his chest, riding a tall, magnificent horse, then please walk a little further ahead; the Prince will pass by there.
But they didn't dare to ask.
The carriage had been quiet for quite some time. Although they couldn't see the Crown Prince's appearance at this moment, they inexplicably sensed his depressed and dejected mood.
Why? Why is that?
His Highness the Crown Prince was in a good mood before.
The person who threw the object had been watching from a short distance away, and he too found it inexplicable.
The second prince said that this would allow His Highness the Crown Prince to immediately turn back to the palace, and once the Crown Prince returned, he would hurry back to report.
However, the Crown Prince's carriage has been parked here for so long, yet it hasn't turned back to the palace.
The crown prince sat in the carriage, remaining motionless.
After a long while, he reached up and covered his face, a barely audible sigh escaping through his fingers.
Let's go...
Before he could finish speaking, a clear sound rang out from outside the carriage.
"Is this Your Highness the Crown Prince? I am Qin Yuerong. May I speak with Your Highness?"
A breeze lifted the carriage curtain, creating a small opening, and a sliver of the morning sunlight streamed into the carriage.
The Crown Prince lowered his hand and looked up. By sheer coincidence, he saw Miss Qin's smiling face through the crack.
Pure and elegant.
The heaviness in the Crown Prince's heart suddenly lightened a little.
He put the things in his hands into his pockets and reached out to lift the carriage curtain.
"Miss Qin."
The moment Qin Yuerong saw the Crown Prince, her heart stirred slightly.
She blurted out, "Is something on your mind, Your Highness?"
The crown prince was slightly taken aback, wondering why she could tell so quickly that he had something on his mind.
"Miss Qin, would you like to come aboard the carriage to speak?"
The Crown Prince also realized that he had been staying here for quite a while, so he invited Qin Yuerong to get into the carriage.
The Qin family's carriage was right behind them.
Qin Yuerong had just passed by when she saw the Crown Prince's carriage parked there. She had originally asked the driver to slow down so she could follow behind the Crown Prince, but after waiting for a while, the Crown Prince's carriage still didn't move, so she came over.
She boarded the Crown Prince's carriage, and the Qin family's carriage followed slowly behind.
Those in the shadows were dumbfounded by what they saw.
The Crown Prince continued walking towards the Prince of Jin's residence, without turning back to the palace.
He hurried back to report to the Second Prince.
Inside the carriage, the Crown Prince finally replied to Qin Yuerong's words.
"There are indeed some things I haven't figured out."
"Is there anything else Your Highness doesn't understand? Is it political matters? Or something else?" Qin Yuerong quickly added, "Your Highness, I don't want to pry into Your Highness's affairs, I just felt that Your Highness's demeanor just now..."
She paused, momentarily at a loss for words.
The crown prince seemed a little curious. "Was my appearance just now difficult to describe?"
Could it be that his expression was quite complicated just now?
Qin Yuerong thought for a while before saying, "Your Highness looked sad and lost just now, as if you were pondering whether to go and retrieve some treasure."
The prince was startled.
He stared intently at Qin Yuerong.
Qin Yuerong, who was originally very poised, suddenly felt a little awkward under his gaze.
Did she say something wrong?
Just as Qin Yuerong was feeling uneasy, the Crown Prince suddenly chuckled softly. He asked, "So, according to Miss Qin, if you really lost a treasure, but it would cost a great deal to find it, would you go to retrieve it? If you lost it, would you feel it was a pity?"
What kind of question is this? Qin Yuerong was a little confused, but she quickly realized that her guess was correct.
What can the crown prince lose?
For the Crown Prince, what could he possibly consider a treasure now? If we're talking about the throne, he hasn't truly obtained it yet, he hasn't ascended the throne, so it can't be considered a loss.
The position of Crown Prince? Impossible, because there's no record of the Emperor wanting to depose the Crown Prince, and deposing the Crown Prince is no easy task.
Moreover, the Crown Prince has Prince Jin behind him, and Prince Jin will definitely protect the Crown Prince. The Qin family is also definitely protecting and supporting the Crown Prince now, so he should not lose the position of Crown Prince.
If we're talking about money, it's not exactly a treasure to the Crown Prince, is it?
After thinking it over, the only thing that could be it is a human, right?
Qin Yuerong didn't know how she felt for a moment.
Does His Highness the Crown Prince have someone in his heart?
Seeing Qin Yuerong's stunned expression, the Crown Prince's mind raced, and he realized that what he had said was not very kind to Miss Qin.
He thought for a moment and then offered a generous explanation.
"Miss Qin, please don't misunderstand. It's not really about possessing, nor is it about losing. It's just that I feel it's very precious, and it would be a pity not to fight for it."
He was also explaining this to his inner self.
Seeing his frankness, Qin Yuerong felt relieved.
He is the prince.
If she marries him, she will become the Crown Princess, and if everything goes smoothly, she will also become the Empress.
It's unlikely that she'll be the only woman in the harem in the future.
She feared that if the Crown Prince were to be solely devoted to her, it would be too much of a burden for him; such pressure was not something easily borne.
Of the three thousand beauties in the imperial harem, how many were truly desired by the emperor? Aren't they all entangled in a complex web of power and interests?
Therefore, Qin Yuerong had already figured it out the moment she agreed to become the Crown Princess.
Let alone any woman the Crown Prince may have liked in the past, even if he wants to take another concubine in the future, she cannot and will not insist on competing for his favor.
All she wanted was for the Crown Prince to continue to respect her and show her some importance and care, just as he did now.
If there are more opportunities like this in the future, so that she and he can sit down and chat alone, that would be wonderful.
The prince she liked was a rational and intelligent prince, not a man who was obsessed with romance and spent his days in a daze.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuerong smiled easily and said, "Does Your Highness want me to speak the truth or just say polite words?"
"Tell me about it, everyone?" the Crown Prince laughed.
"The polite way to put it is, with Your Highness's status and position, what can't you obtain? If you like it, then go for it, so you won't regret it later. As for whether it's right or wrong, who cares? Who dares to say whether Your Highness is right or wrong?"
“The truth is,” Qin Yuerong said more seriously, “Your Highness has it tough too. You have to think twice before you want something. First, think about whether you really like it, whether you really can’t lose it, and whether you can really bear the consequences after you get it.”
The Crown Prince's mind conjured up Lu Zhaoling's face, followed by his uncle's.
He didn't want to lose either of them.
If he really tried to take her away, he might not be able to win Lu Zhaoling, but he would definitely lose the Imperial Uncle.
If you want to have both of them at the same time...
All I can do is wish them well.
