Bai Chuxiao didn't agree with it. This was obviously an emotional card. She didn't believe her words and didn't respond. She just smiled and asked, "Does the Crown Princess mind my second sister?"

Liu Shuyao chuckled, "Your Highness likes your second sister, what can I say? I am alone now, and all the honors and favors I have come from the Queen and the Prince. All I do is just to hope that the East Palace will get better and better."

Liu Shuyao was thinking clearly and spoke to her very frankly. Bai Chuxiao nodded. In fact, in the current situation, they had no deep hatred with the prince, so it was okay to help the prince. It was better than letting Chu Tianling be so rampant. As for the King of Xiang, with Bai Linnan around, I'm afraid he wouldn't trust them too much.

"Sister Liu thinks very clearly, Chu Xiao admires you." It is said that not everyone can sit on the throne of the Crown Princess. If it were her, she would never tolerate other women sharing her husband.

Seeing that Bai Chuxiao seemed willing to get closer to her, Liu Shuyao smiled again, "I really don't like the Bai family, nor do I like your second sister, but since the first time I met Sister Bai at the Spring Banquet, I felt that one day we might become friends. In fact, in Sister Bai's heart, she separates herself from the Bai family, doesn't she?"

"Sister Liu is right. I'm sure you know all the things that happen in the rich families. I am me and the Bai family is the Bai family." Bai Chuxiao responded generously. Liu Shuyao was right. As for being friends, that's another story.

"So the Crown Prince used to try to win over your father, you and the King of Yan under the pretext of marrying the Second Miss Bai, and he wanted to make us all family. I'm afraid you, my sister, don't like this," Liu Shuyao said her guess again.

Bai Chuxiao really admired the woman in front of her from the bottom of her heart, "It is a blessing for His Royal Highness to marry my sister as the Crown Princess."

Liu Shuyao chuckled, "Your Highness just didn't think it through before, but that won't happen again in the future." She didn't say much. It was enough to show her attitude today. She didn't expect that a few words would make Bai Chuxiao give a clear answer. If she continued to say more, it would only backfire.

As they were talking, they walked to a pavilion and sat down. The palace servants brought them tea.

Liu Shuyao held the tea and asked with a smile, "I heard that my sister will be coming of age at the beginning of next month. I might come to join in the fun then."

Bai Chuxiao couldn't refuse, so she said politely, "I'm naturally happy that the Crown Princess can come." Her birthday is on the first day of June, so there are only ten days left. However, the Crown Prince is still injured, so it's not certain whether Liu Shuyao can come.

"Sister Bai and His Royal Highness Prince Yan's wedding will probably be coming soon."

Bai Chuxiao smiled faintly, "It's not decided yet, don't rush, it's not good to rush ahead of Prince Xiang and Prince Qi."

Most women in this dynasty were engaged or married at the age of thirteen or fourteen. In her previous life, she would still be considered a minor, so she was not in a hurry.

"Speaking of this, Sister Bai, do you know that Princess Zhaoyang and Prince Consort Zhang seem to be on their way back to the capital?"

Bai Chuxiao shook her head. Her daughter was getting married, so she should return to the capital. She had not met the princess yet, so she didn't know what kind of people Princess Zhaoyang and Prince Consort Zhang were like...

When Bai Chuwan saw the prince, he was lying on the bed reading a book.

"Wan'er?" Chu Tianyou looked at her with a hint of surprise.

Bai Chuwan threw herself on the bedside of Chu Tianyou, tears flashing in her eyes, "Brother Tianyou, how are you? I heard that you were injured. Wan'er was so worried."

Chu Tianyou put down the book, took her hand and said with a smile, "I'm fine, but why are you here?"

When he held her hand, Bai Chuwan felt her heart begin to beat again, and her face flushed. "Wan'er was worried about Brother Tianyou, so she followed me here. The Crown Princess was talking to me, so she asked someone to bring me here to see you."

Chu Tianyou was somewhat satisfied with Liu Shuyao again. She handled things properly and generously let Wan'er see him. With her around, he was relieved.

"Wan'er is here, I am very happy"

Seeing that the prince still cared about her, Bai Chuwan said shyly, "Brother Tianyou, what are you talking about? You haven't come to see Wan'er for a long time. Wan'er thought that you had forgotten me now that you married the Crown Princess."

The prince pulled her into his arms and comforted her gently, "How could that be? It's just that I promised you the position of Crown Princess before, and now... I'm afraid Wan'er won't agree to it."

Hearing this, Bai Chuwan felt lost again. She snuggled in Chu Tianyou's arms, bit her lip, and said, "After all, it is the will of His Majesty. Wan'er does not blame Brother Tianyou. Wan'er loves you. As long as Brother Tianyou treats Wan'er sincerely, Wan'er is willing to be a concubine..." After all, a concubine is a concubine. As the daughter of the prime minister, she has to be inferior to Liu Shuyao. How can she be willing? But what can she do now?

Chu Tianyou looked ecstatic, "Wan'er, are you telling the truth? Then... is your father willing?"

Bai Chuwan made up her mind that as long as she could win the prince's heart, she could pull Liu Shuyao down and take the position herself, or even take a higher position in the future... It was not impossible.

So she acted like a little bird, "If Wan'er is willing, father will be willing too. Does Brother Tianyou love Wan'er..."

Chu Tianyou curled his lips, "Wan'er, don't you understand my feelings? You are the only one in my heart. Don't worry. Although you are nominally a concubine, I will definitely welcome you into the mansion with the ceremony of the Crown Princess. I will also inform the servants in the future that your status is the same as Shuyao's. You can also tell your father to let him rest assured."

Bai Chuwan was touched and said, "Brother Tianyou, you are so kind. With what you said, father will definitely not have any worries anymore."

Her father didn't allow her to see the prince at all because of the relationship with the Liu family. He couldn't bring himself to do that. What if he hurriedly married her to someone else to save face? She was thinking about herself. With the prince's assurance, her father might not necessarily give in.

It had been quite a while since they came to the East Palace, and Bai Chuxiao felt a little bored. She and Liu Shuyao didn't have much to talk about, so she stood up and said goodbye to her.

But before leaving, I still have to visit the prince, otherwise it would be unacceptable.

Liu Shuyao accompanied her to the prince's side. There was no maid to inform them, so when they came in, they saw the prince and Bai Chuwan still hugging each other.

Bai Chuxiao looked at Liu Shuyao beside her and found that she was still as usual, not embarrassed at all, and couldn't help but admire her again.

Bai Chuwan felt a little embarrassed and quickly stood up, while the prince also looked indifferent.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Is His Royal Highness in good health?" Bai Chuxiao asked calmly.

"I'm much better now. I'm fine. I have to thank Old Seven for this. Miss Bai, please convey my gratitude to Old Seven."

"Your Highness is too polite. In this case, your servant and I will not disturb your rest any longer."

Chu Tianyou nodded with a smile

After leaving the Eastern Palace, Bai Chuxiao turned to Liu Shuyao and said with a smile, "Princess, please forgive me for making fun of you." The way Bai Chuwan rushed to become a concubine just now was indeed too embarrassing.

Liu Shuyao smiled at her indifferently. She knew Bai Chuwan's personality very well and she would not find anything strange about it, so there was no need to say more.
