Princess Qin tightened her handkerchief and thought back to her conversation with Prince Qin last night.
After hearing her words of thanks, King Qin just calmly told her not to take it to heart as usual.
"You are my princess. If something happens, I will try my best to save you. This is my duty."
Hearing these words, Princess Qin circled around in her mouth several times before she dared to say the words she had prepared for a long time.
Seeing King Qin lying down as if he was about to fall asleep, she finally couldn't help but confess her feelings to him.
When Ye Fuxun heard this, he was so nervous for Princess Qin that he sweated.
However, she did not interrupt Princess Qin's words, and only listened quietly to her continued words.
"Concubine Ye, do you think I am too bold and shameless?" Princess Qin suddenly felt ashamed and looked at Ye Fuxun with an embarrassed expression.
"Not at all." Ye Fuxun hurriedly shook his head, "It is very courageous to confess your feelings. I think it is really not easy for the princess to do that."
Princess Qin breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "I thought the prince was asleep, so I just treated these words as sleep talk and let them pass."
"Unexpectedly, the prince suddenly sat up," she bit her lip, "and told me that he can respect me and respect me in this life, but I don't have to think too much about the rest."
Princess Qin felt that the sky was about to fall. What did the prince mean? Could it be that he had other loves in his heart?
"I really didn't expect that the prince would say that. For a moment, I felt as if my mind had been scalded by a hot pot. I grabbed him regardless and wanted to know what happened."
"The prince got up and walked out, but I hurriedly chased him and hugged him..."
Princess Qin had always thought that King Qin was just cold-tempered. How could she have imagined that it would be like this? She only wanted an answer, and even if the answer was the same as she had guessed, she could bear it.
"Your Majesty finally said," Princess Qin smiled bitterly, "There is someone in his heart, and he will never let go of others in this life."
Ye Fuxun's eyes widened. Princess Qin wiped the corners of her eyes again: "Since the prince has someone in his heart, it is not appropriate for me to be the princess. I told him that I could make peace with him and let him marry his sweetheart."
"The prince said that the man was already dead."
Princess Qin's shoulders slumped, "Concubine Ye, what do you think I should do?"
"This is really too sudden." Ye Fuxun's face was full of shock, "Princess, what do you think?"
"I don't know." Princess Qin shook her head, "If that person is still alive, I can give in and let her be with the prince, but the prince said that person has died long ago... I don't know what to do."
"I always feel that I am very pitiful," Princess Qin clutched her handkerchief, "but now that I think about it, isn't the prince even more pitiful? The person I like can still be in front of me and accompany him every day. And the prince likes the person
But we can’t even touch people, we can only miss each other.”
"Concubine Ye," Princess Qin sighed quietly, "what do you think I should do?"
Ye Fuxun shook his head: "We onlookers can't help with emotional matters other than blessing you. However, no matter what you choose to do, Princess, I will support you."
Princess Qin smiled gratefully and held Ye Fulun's hand: "I was sad all night last night and thought about giving up countless times. But this morning when I saw the first ray of morning light by the window, I thought
I feel like every new day is full of hope.”
"I believe that as long as I persist, the prince will accept me one day." Princess Qin clenched her fists and said.
She didn't know how to get along with the prince before, so she tried hard to be a noble lady, but now she figured out that since she could be herself happily, why not follow the desire in her heart and work hard to conquer her?
The prince of the family?
"I remember when I was ten years old, my father gave me a docile mare, and then gave my brother a slightly more aggressive horse." Princess Qin said with a smile, "I refused to have that mare at that time. I insisted.
I went to tame my brother’s horse myself. Do you think I succeeded?”
Ye Fuxun's eyes were smiling: "Did the princess succeed in the end?"
"It took me a whole month, two hours a day, to tame that horse."
Princess Qin raised her lips and said, "Not to mention how many flesh wounds I suffered in that month, my parents said I was stubborn, but I am not willing to give up when I have set my sights on the goal."
"I want to give it a try."
She didn't know the crux and had no clue before. Now she understands that she will find a way to make the prince slowly forget about that woman and cherish her by his side.
After Princess Qin left, Ye Fuxun held the cup in silence for a long time.
"Jiujiu, is my second side mission completed?"
Originally she thought this mission was unachievable, but she didn't expect Princess Qin to ask King Qin...
She didn't even do anything, so the task was completed by herself?
Jiujiu responded: "The completion of side task two is 100%."
"This second side mission, I didn't actually contribute much, is it still considered completed?"
Jiujiu crackled and typed: "The task is completed through the influence of the host, so it is considered that the host has accomplished the task."
Ye Fuxun felt very emotional. Maybe it was because she had been getting along with Princess Qin these days and chatting a lot with each other that it had a certain influence on Princess Qin, which made her ask Prince Qin.
"How is the completion of side mission 1 now?"
Jiujiu responded: "80% of side mission 1 has been completed."
Still have 20%? Ye Fuxun frowned.
Ji Yannuo's mission for this trip to the East China Sea has basically been made clear, so why hasn't her mission been completed yet?
"Isn't it possible that the person behind the assassination of Mr. Lu and the private mining of iron ore to make weapons was not King Rui?"
They guessed wrong, so the mission was not completed?
Jiujiu responded honestly: "The person who assassinated Mr. Lu and privately mined iron ore to forge weapons was King Rui."
Ye Fuxun:!!!
"Xiaojiu, do you know that King Rui is the real murderer?"
"I know." Jiujiu responded.
"How did you know? Do you know anything else besides this?" Ye Fuxun asked impatiently.
That King Rui is the real culprit behind the scenes is just Ji Yannuo's speculation, but the system actually knows it?
Could it be that the system still knows where the next plot will go?
Jiujiu: "The system has mission-related displays. When the prince guessed that King Rui was the real murderer, the system had a bracket next to it that said it was correct. No other information could be seen for the time being."
Ye Fuxun: Let her happiness be in vain.
The next day is King Rui's birthday banquet.
In the morning, a group of people went to Prince Rui's Mansion.
The streets were lively and the people were beating gongs and drums to celebrate, which shows that King Rui's reputation in the local area is indeed quite good.
Ye Fuxun opened the curtain and looked outside. This was the first time he went out after coming to Haiyun City.
When they arrived in front of Prince Rui's Mansion, Ji Han, Prince Rui's crown prince, stood at the door to greet him.
"Father, please let Han come to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the King of Chu and His Royal Highness the King of Qin," Ji Han, Prince Rui's son, said with a loud smile, "All cousins, please come in."
