Reborn as the Doted Child Bride of the Deposed Crown Prince

He Xue, a modern woman with a keen interest in Qing Dynasty history, felt regret over the fate of the deposed Crown Prince, believing he didn't deserve such an end. If given the chance, she was...

Chapter 453 Still Too Young

Looking at Xu Yan, He Xue wondered where she got the confidence that the Crown Prince would see her.

Xu Yun felt that she shouldn't have let Xu Yan come today. If she had known this would happen, she would have bought some croton powder for Xu Yan to eat!

Although Lady Suo'etu disapproved of Xu Yan's actions, she secretly acquiesced to them. The reason Suo'etu recognized Xu Yan as his goddaughter was that he wanted to have his own people by the Crown Prince's side.

The Emperor will not allow the Crown Prince to marry a girl from the Hesheli clan, but an adopted daughter is acceptable!

Xu Yan was an orphan with no power or influence. If she wanted to gain a foothold by the Crown Prince's side, she had to rely on Hesheli, and such people were also easy to manipulate.

She felt that the Crown Princess was just a little girl who easily showed her emotions, and Xu Yan had no problem dealing with someone like that.

"When I arrived just now, I saw a carriage parked at the entrance of Yuqing Palace. Is the Crown Princess preparing to leave the palace?" Suo'etu chatted casually with Hexue, trying to figure out how to get her to say what he wanted to say.

"The Crown Prince is going to the estate to relax!" He Xue said.

"The Crown Prince and Crown Princess are newly married and deeply in love; it's truly enviable!"

He Xue simply smiled and quietly looked at Madam Suo'etu, wanting to know what she wanted to say.

"The other day, my lord also told me that we should start looking for suitable husbands for Yan'er and Yun'er. We will feel at ease if we leave the two sisters in the capital!"

"Godmother, I will not get married. I will stay by your and Godfather's side!" Xu Yun said.

Xu Yan simply lowered her head shyly.

"Silly child, a girl will eventually get married!" Lady Suo'etu said to Xu Yun with a loving expression.

"Your godmother will definitely find you a good family to marry into, and will never let you suffer any injustice!"

"Madam, rest assured, who would dare to wrong the adopted daughter of Prime Minister Suo!" He Xue said.

"I truly love these two children, and I've even considered a few families, but I feel none of them are good enough for them!" Lady Soetu said with dissatisfaction.

[So this is where I was waiting!] Kazuyuki also realized what Lady Soetu wanted to say.

"The adopted daughter of the Prime Minister should naturally be matched with the most noble person in the world."

"The most honorable person in the world is none other than Father Emperor! So that's what you were planning, Madam!" He Xue looked like she understood.

When Lady Suo'etu heard He Xue speak, she almost choked on her tea. She thought He Xue understood what she meant, but it turned out that He Xue was just pretending to be stupid!

"Your Highness, you've misunderstood! His Majesty is the most honored person in the world; his sisters would never dare to dream of such a thing."

"These sisters are daughters of the Hesheli clan, and by virtue of their relationship with the Crown Prince, they are cousins. The master intends to strengthen the bond between them! I wonder what the Crown Princess thinks?" After saying this, Lady Suo'etu looked at He Xue.

"So that's what you're planning, Madam! But you shouldn't ask me what I think, you should ask the Crown Prince. After all, you're serving the Crown Prince, and you have to make sure he's satisfied!" He Xue replied with a smile.

Lady Soetu's expression changed slightly; she hadn't expected He Xue to say that, but she quickly regained her smile.

"What the Crown Princess says is true. I was being presumptuous."

Lady Soetu was secretly pleased to see that He Xue had not explicitly refused.

Qingdai walked in carrying a tray. "Your Highness, these are some little trinkets that His Highness the Crown Prince sent to you. They were all carved by His Highness himself."

His Highness the Crown Prince said that if you like it, you can keep it to play with and pass the time; if you don't like it, he will get you another style.

He Xue glanced at it and said, "Put it away. After all, it's a token of the Crown Prince's affection. It seems the Crown Prince really cares about keeping me bored by doing so much!"

“His Highness the Crown Prince has always cared about you!” Qingdai said.

Lady Suo'etu was surprised that the Crown Prince would do these things for He Xue, but she was also very pleased. [Just now the Crown Princess acted as if she didn't care, but now she is eager to let others know how much the Crown Prince dotes on her.]

Looks like you're still too young! You just can't keep your composure!
