Three days later.
Lin San came back to report that Rong Huanyao was either at home or in the prince's mansion looking for the eldest prince, and she also claimed that she was pregnant with the eldest prince's child.
But the eldest prince never came out to see her from beginning to end.
The guards also drove her away as if she were crazy.
Rong Xuqing's face darkened after hearing this. "How dare you, a prince, do something and yet not take responsibility for it?"
Regardless of whether she was really pregnant or not, he did something wrong after all.
Isn’t it that grandfather is bent on currying favor with the eldest prince?
Letting his daughter marry the eldest prince fulfilled his wish.
Let him first dream of becoming the future father-in-law of the emperor.
The old man became more and more arrogant, and it would be easier for his family to completely break away from the Annan Marquis Mansion.
Rong Xuqing went to the prince's mansion.
"Rong Xuqing?" The eldest prince put down the scroll. "Are you sure it's Rong Xuqing, not Rong Huanyao?"
Rong Huanyao comes here almost every day these days.
In the past few days, he would receive her and listen to her say some incomprehensible things.
After a long time, I got tired of it and simply closed the door and refused to see visitors.
Hearing the eunuch's affirmative answer, the eldest prince immediately stood up and went out to greet him.
"No need, First Prince. Let's talk here."
Rong Xuqing declined the request to enter and said calmly:
"I came here this time because of my aunt Rong Huanyao."
The eldest prince's brow furrowed when he heard this.
Rong Xuqing continued without hesitation, "As a man, and the eldest son of the royal family, you should be responsible and courageous."
"Since you have already secretly pledged your life to my aunt, you should be responsible for her instead of just turning your back on her..."
The eldest prince became more and more confused the more he listened. What was she talking about?
"Wait!" The eldest prince interrupted Rong Xuqing's lecture, "You said that Rong Huanyao and I have secretly agreed to spend our lives together?"
When did this happen? How come he doesn’t know?
Rong Xuqing nodded, with a hint of anger on his face.
"She's already pregnant with your child, don't you want to take responsibility?"
"Such an irresponsible person, I will definitely report you to His Majesty!"
As she spoke, she made a gesture to leave.
She didn't really want to take His Majesty's head, she just wanted to scare the Crown Prince.
A woman's family reputation is extremely important. If people knew that Rong Huanyao was pregnant before marriage, she would be criticized for the rest of her life even if she married the eldest prince.
As a woman, Rong Xuqing would never do anything to damage a woman's reputation.
"There's nothing between me and Rong Huanyao. Xuqing, don't be fooled by her..."
Before the eldest prince could finish his words, a man suddenly rushed out and blocked the two of them.
"Rong Xuqing!"
It’s Rong Huanyao.
At this moment, she stood in front of the eldest prince like an eagle protecting its chicks.
"I'm telling you, Your Highness and I already have a child, don't even think about taking him away from me!"
Her face burned with anger as she yelled.
Rong Xuqing stared at her with wide eyes.
It is broad daylight now and there are still many people walking on the street.
What is she doing!?
Sure enough, the next moment, the passers-by stopped.
"Rong Huanyao! Are you suffering from hysteria? Why did I have any dealings with her? Where did you get your child?" the eldest prince said angrily.
"Xuqing, there is nothing between me and Rong Huanyao, please don't misunderstand." He looked at Rong Xuqing and explained anxiously.
This made Rong Huanyao even more excited, so she took his hand and put it on her belly.
"Your Highness, why don't you believe me? I am really pregnant with your child."
"We spend every night together, and you're so affectionate to me. Why do you become a different person during the day, ignoring me completely...?"
She was about to cry.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The eldest prince's eyes widened in anger and he suddenly took back his hand. "When did I ever do anything wrong with you?!"
One says yes, the other says no, and neither of them seems to be lying.
Now it was Rong Xuqing's turn to be confused.
Was my aunt put under a spell by the eldest prince?
She was willing to marry him even at the cost of destroying her own reputation.
Isn't she afraid that if she gets married like this, she will suffer for the rest of her life?
"Someone come!" The eldest prince could no longer bear Rong Huanyao's obsession. "Send Rong Huanyao back to Marquis Annan! Tell him to take good care of his daughter!"
"Don't put all the blame on me!" He shook off his sleeve that was being pulled with a sinister look on his face.
The guards of the Prince's Mansion carried the struggling Rong Huanyao all the way to the Annan Marquis Mansion.
The confused crowd followed along the way.
"What's going on? What has happened to Miss Rong?"
"I heard it was a bastard from somewhere, but they insisted it was the eldest prince's, so they had it brought back. Or maybe she revealed it herself..."
"ah……??"
This is hard to review!
The old lady rushed to the front yard after hearing the noise and saw Rong Huanyao still shouting something like "The eldest prince can't treat her like this."
After hearing what the guard said, he was so scared that he sat down on the ground.
After hearing the personal confirmation from the guards of the Prince's Palace, the discussion among the onlookers gradually grew louder.
"Are you really pregnant with a bastard?"
"She's really good at finding a father for her child. She actually found the eldest prince."
"Whose child is that? Could it be that Tian Luowen's? I heard they've been hooking up for a long time, and they even met in my niece's coming-of-age party..."
At Rong Xuqing's coming-of-age banquet, the incident of Tian Luowen being caught from Rong Huanyao's room was brought up again.
"Didn't Tian Luowen follow that gentleman?"
"It doesn't affect his interactions with women. It's not like he's become a eunuch..."
“…”
Everyone was talking about it, looking disdainful.
