After I died, the scumbag prince cried down the city wall
Chapter 68 Women are not inferior to men
She hesitated for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince help my sister?"
"Not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but also the young lady of the Zhao family." Cui Rongrong's smile became meaningful, "Soon, you will understand everything."
Cui Yunhe was unable to understand the meaning behind her sister's words for a moment, until the evening when a servant vividly recounted to them all the rumors circulating outside, and she suddenly realized.
The servant spoke eloquently, describing it as if he had seen it with his own eyes: "The intimate scene between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the eldest daughter of the Zhao family on the street has now spread throughout the capital. It is said that the eldest daughter witnessed it with her own eyes not far away. Who doesn't know that the eldest daughter of the Zhao family has a deep affection for His Royal Highness? I didn't expect that the eldest daughter had just encountered a storm, and the young lady of the Zhao family couldn't wait to take action!"
"There are rumors everywhere. Some say that Miss Zhao is trying to provoke the eldest lady, hoping that the Crown Prince will marry her at the same time. Others say that the Crown Prince and Miss Zhao were originally in love, but because of the eldest lady's obstruction, they did this shocking act without hesitation when their love was so strong."
The servant's narration came to an abrupt end, leaving Cui Yunhe with a slightly open mouth and shocked eyes.
It turns out that the "help" my sister mentioned was in such an unexpected way!
As the news fermented, people's attention naturally shifted from Cui Rongrong to Song Yanyi and Zhao Xianer, and Cui Rong's crisis was quietly resolved.
God help me too!
Cui Yunhe secretly rejoiced in his heart, and then got up to find Cui Rongrong, wanting to share the joy of surviving the disaster.
On the other side of the palace, Song Yanchen couldn't help but burst into laughter after listening to the guard's detailed report.
"I didn't expect it to be so exciting. It's a pity that I didn't get to witness the Crown Prince's expression. It must have been a great picture."
Wen Yinyang on the side seemed calmer and reminded him at the right time: "Your Highness, this incident is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Sixth Prince. We must not miss it."
Song Yanchen raised a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth, "It seems that the time is indeed ripe."
Wen Yinyang frowned slightly when he heard this. He had an ominous feeling in his heart and asked, "What does the Sixth Prince mean..."
"I plan to visit Miss Cui in person tomorrow." Song Yanchen's eyes were deep, as if he had already made up his mind. "With so many things happening recently, Miss Cui must have a lot of thoughts in her mind, and she needs someone to listen. Now is the best time to go there."
When Wen Yinyang heard this, although he had some concerns in his heart, he also understood Song Yanchen's intention.
He lowered his head and remained silent. The conversation between Song Yanchen and the man from the border echoed in his mind, and his fists were clenched secretly in his sleeves.
Although he wanted to stop it, he knew Song Yanchen's character very well. Once a decision was made, no one could change it.
Forced opposition will only lead to unnecessary suspicion and trouble.
After all, Song Yanchen's existence is like an indestructible backer for the Wen family. With his protection, those forces that once tried to provoke them would no longer dare to act rashly.
Once this layer of protection is lost, the Wen family will probably face even greater difficulties.
Wen Yinyang pursed his lips, thinking in his heart that perhaps he could only give Cui Rong a hint in private to let her prepare.
The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds. Cui Rongrong carefully selected gifts and prepared to visit Zhao Xianer's mansion.
As a close friend, she should have personally visited her to express her concern and sympathy regarding yesterday's incident to avoid giving anyone a chance to gossip.
Sitting in the beautifully decorated carriage, as the carriage swayed gently, Cui Rongrong had just told the driver to drive in the direction of the Shen Mansion. The sound of horse hooves had not yet faded away when a familiar and deep voice penetrated the breeze outside the window and came slowly.
"Miss Cui, the Sixth Prince has some private words to say, and he longs to communicate with you in private."
This voice was undoubtedly Wen Yinyang's.
Cui Rong gently lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and saw Wen Yinyang riding a majestic black horse, following closely beside the carriage with a solemn expression.
After a moment's consideration, she nodded slightly, signaling the driver to follow Wen Yinyang's instructions.
Soon, the carriage slowly stopped in front of an antique teahouse. The plaque hanging on the lintel shone with a warm luster in the sun, with four large characters "Green Water and Cloudy Sky" inscribed on it.
Entering the teahouse and climbing the stairs to the private room on the second floor, Song Yanchen had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Cui Rongrong approaching, he smiled warmly and said, "Miss Cui, you look very healthy. It is obvious that the gossip from the outside world has not bothered you at all."
Cui Rongrong smiled calmly and said, "Since these are all groundless remarks, why should I take them to heart?"
“The Sixth Prince specially summoned me, I’m afraid it’s not just because of these rumors?” There was a sharp glint in her eyes.
Song Yanchen did not answer directly, but just smiled slightly and motioned Cui Rongrong to sit down.
She sat submissively on a carved wooden chair with an elegant posture.
"Miss Cui, you don't seem surprised by my sudden invitation today?" Song Yanchen looked at her with interest, with a gleam of inquiry in his eyes.
"Whether you are surprised or not is not important. What I am more concerned about is the Sixth Prince's true intention." Cui Rongrong's answer was concise and direct.
Song Yanchen's interest grew stronger and stronger: "Ms. Cui always brings me unexpected surprises. However, the situation has been delicate recently, and I noticed something quite interesting - your attitude towards His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems unusually cold."
He recalled: "I remember that before General Cui led you to the border, you and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had a very close relationship. It's not an exaggeration to say that you were childhood sweethearts."
Cui Rong sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her voice: "The world is like a new chess game, and people's hearts change with it. This is common sense."
"What's more, the border wars are ongoing, and I am always concerned about the safety of the front lines. I really have no time to care about those romantic relationships." Her eyes were firm, and Song Yanchen could not find any hypocrisy in them.
Song Yanchen narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the woman in front of him: "Ms. Cui cares about the country, she is indeed as brave as a man."
"Without these emotional disturbances, I believe Miss Cui will be able to focus more on her ambitions. What do you think?"
Cui Rongrong's eyes flickered, as if she had a thousand words to say but hesitated: "What the Sixth Prince means is..."
"Six years is enough time for a lot of things to change."
