"Wanqing, I came to you to discuss the marriage." Lu Shengyuan said in a deep voice.
He knew that this matter was of great importance and must be treated with caution.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing's heart tightened: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I am afraid I am not up to the task."
She knew that the marriage was a very important matter. Although she was a princess, she was a woman after all and could not take on such a heavy responsibility.
"Wanqing, you don't have to worry." Lu Shengyuan said in a gentle voice, "I know your abilities and I believe you can handle this matter."
He knew Lin Wanqing's personality and understood her concerns.
"But..." Lin Wanqing wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Lu Shengyuan.
"Wanqing, don't worry." Lu Shengyuan said firmly, "I will send someone to secretly protect you and ensure your safety."
He knew that this matter was of great importance and understood Lin Wanqing's concerns.
"Also, although you are a woman, you are also my princess." Lu Shengyuan continued, "You represent my reputation and the reputation of the palace."
"I will never let you put yourself in danger." Lu Shengyuan said in a firm voice.
He understood Lin Wanqing's concerns and the seriousness of the matter.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing felt relieved, but still a little hesitant: "But..."
She knew that this matter was of great importance and must not be taken lightly.
"Wanqing, go ahead and do your job without worry." Lu Shengyuan said in a gentle voice, "I believe you can handle this matter well."
He knew Lin Wanqing's personality and understood her abilities.
"Besides, even if you really can't handle it well, we can cover it up by saying it's just a little girl's joke." Lu Shengyuan continued.
He knew that this matter was of great importance, but he also needed a comprehensive plan.
Hearing this, Lin Wanqing's heart trembled, and he bowed and saluted: "Wanqing obeys your command."
She knew that this matter was of great importance and understood Lu Shengyuan's intention.
"But Your Highness, why did you agree to let the Emperor let me go for the marriage?" Lin Wanqing asked in confusion.
She knew that Lu Shengyuan was always cautious, and she didn't expect him to agree to the emperor's proposal.
"I went to the Emperor and told him all your worries and concerns," Lu Shengyuan said in a deep voice, "The Emperor told you to give it a try."
"Besides, even if you really can't handle it well, you can cover it up by saying it's a joke." Lu Shengyuan continued.
Lin Wanqing nodded in agreement, and her originally worried mood instantly dissipated due to Lu Shengyuan's words.
She knew that if she successfully completed the mission this time, her name would definitely go down in history!
If she fails this time, she can also take this opportunity to see clearly the gap between herself and the royal family, which will be of great help to her future path!
Thinking of this, Lin Wanqing suddenly became full of fighting spirit.
"Your Highness, don't worry, I won't let you and the Emperor down!"
Seeing that Lin Wanqing's eyes were determined and no longer as nervous as before, Lu Shengyuan nodded with satisfaction.
"Since you've decided to go, then make sure you're fully prepared. Go down and rest now, gather your strength, and wait for the expedition."
"Yes."
After Lin Wanqing left the study, Lu Shengyuan's brows were still furrowed.
The method given by the emperor's brother cannot guarantee 100% success.
But this matter was of great importance and he had no time to think about it.
Besides, he had no other choice.
Lu Shengyuan sighed, picked up the memorial on the table and began to review it, hoping that this matter could be implemented as soon as possible.
……
On the other side, night falls.
Lin Wanqing changed into men's clothes early and left with her maid only after she was ready.
"Master, let me go with you." Pei'er said worriedly.
Lin Wanqing shook his head. "No need. You stay in the yard to avoid any mistakes."
"Master, I'm still a little worried..."
Pei'er wanted to say something but was interrupted by Lin Wanqing.
"Be obedient." Lin Wanqing said softly, but her eyes revealed seriousness.
Seeing this, Pei'er could only shut up and dared not disobey Lin Wanqing.
"Okay, go do your thing. I'm leaving first." Lin Wanqing said, turned around and walked out.
Pei'er looked at Lin Wanqing's back as she left, gritted her teeth, and secretly made up her mind.
The master refused to tell her where she was going.
She could only follow her master's instructions and stay in the yard and not cause trouble for her master.
She must practice martial arts hard so that she can give advice to her master in the future.
As soon as Lin Wanqing walked out of the yard, she saw the person waiting at the door - Nanny Su.
"This old servant pays homage to the princess."
"Madam Su, please get up. Why are you waiting here?"
Nanny Su stood up and replied respectfully, "I received a message from Madam and came here to greet the princess."
Lin Wanqing nodded and got into the carriage with Nanny Su.
"Princess, this way."
"Ah."
Nanny Su drove the carriage slowly forward, and the atmosphere inside the carriage was very solemn.
The two of them were silent all the way until they were about to reach their destination. Nanny Su couldn't help but ask, "Princess, where are we going?"
Lin Wanqing opened the curtain and said calmly, "Madam Su, please be patient. We will be there soon."
Nanny Su was stunned, and then became even more confused.
She vaguely felt that the princess seemed to be hiding something from her.
But she is just a servant, so it is better for her not to ask about things that are not her business.
Soon, the carriage stopped.
Nanny Su helped Lin Wanqing get off the carriage. Lin Wanqing looked up at the plaque and saw three golden characters "Prince Qin's Mansion".
"Princess, we're here." Nanny Su said, reaching out to hold Lin Wanqing's arm.
Lin Wanqing nodded and walked towards the gate of the mansion.
The guards at the door stopped them immediately and asked respectfully, "I wonder what brings you here, Princess?"
Lin Wanqing smiled slightly and said, "Please inform him that this princess wishes to see the prince."
"Princess, please wait a moment. I will report to you right away." The guard quickly obeyed the order and ran in hurriedly.
A moment later, the guard hurried out again, his attitude becoming more respectful.
"Princess, please come in." He said, turning sideways to gesture Lin Wanqing to go in.
Lin Wanqing nodded and walked inside with Pei'er.
"Princess, the Crown Prince is waiting for you in the study. Please follow me."
Lin Wanqing nodded upon hearing this without objection.
She quickly followed the guard to the door of the study and knocked on it.
"Who?" A low voice came from inside the house.
Lin Wanqing's eyes flickered for a few seconds as he listened to the familiar voice.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, I pay my respects to you. May the Crown Prince live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Lin Wanqing knelt down respectfully and saluted with a sincere attitude.
The prince's cold snort came from inside the room, "Stand up."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wanqing stood up and looked up at the prince in front of him.
He was wearing a moon-white brocade robe, with handsome features, deep eyebrows and eyes, and thin lips slightly pursed under his straight nose, looking very cold and arrogant.
However, the occasional gloom in his eyes ruined his overall beauty.
Lin Wanqing secretly complained that the prince looked exactly like the emperor.
But their temperaments are completely different. One is sunny, handsome, domineering and sharp; the other is extremely cold, like a high and mighty emperor.
"What's the matter with you coming to see me?" Ouyang Qian sat on the chair and drank his tea casually, his posture lazy and noble.
Lin Wanqing listened, but was not affected at all. She still replied calmly: "Your Highness, I am here to ask you to fulfill your promise."
Lu Shengyuan raised an eyebrow when he heard this. "Promise? What promise?"
