"Mother never abandoned you, it's you who didn't want to recognize me."
Princess De'an couldn't help but tear up.
No one knew how much effort it took for her to say that, but she was really tired.
She didn't know what to do either.
Her husband's betrayal and her son's disobedience tortured her to the point of unbearable pain.
"Princess, Tianrui has realized his mistake, please forgive him this time."
Seeing that she softened her heart, Han Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Forget it, go away." The eldest princess waved her hand. "If you choose mother, mother will naturally not push you away."
"Just treat this as a mistake on your part. Go back to the courtyard and study. After the New Year, you can also take the imperial examination."
"yes."
Han Tianrui lowered his eyes to hide the irritation in his eyes.
As for studying, he was a member of the royal family and was born with a title to inherit, so there was no need for him to take the imperial examination.
The imperial examinations were prepared for poor scholars who had no connections.
But no matter how unwilling he was, he had no choice but to obey.
"Princess, don't be angry."
Seeing this, Han Wen stepped forward and wanted to hug her, but the eldest princess subconsciously took a step back.
Now she has developed a psychological aversion to Han Wen.
The more I loved him before, the more disgusted I am now after discovering his deception.
Not to mention touching her, she couldn't even eat with him.
"Nothing, please go back, Prince Consort. You should also keep an eye on Rui'er. The Spring Examination will be held soon. Let alone the Jinshi, it would be good if you can pass the Xiucai examination first."
Han Wen is so good at studying. He went to high school at a young age. Han Tianrui really didn't inherit anyone's advantages.
Suddenly, the eldest princess thought of Tang Yi. He really looked a bit like the prince consort when he was young.
But he is more handsome than the prince consort.
I heard that he is a famous talent in Jiangnan, and he will be admitted to high school this year if nothing unexpected happens.
Many people bet on him to be the top scorer in the imperial examination. He is indeed a rare talent.
These things were all told to her by Yu Shulan. Yu Shulan rarely praised someone like this.
"Princess, you've forgiven Rui'er, can you give me a chance too?"
The prince consort spoke in a wronged tone, his eyes filled with deep affection that could make one fall in love with him at first sight.
Once upon a time, the eldest princess was deceived by his affectionate eyes and thought that he loved her deeply.
Who knew that loving someone could be pretended.
She sighed.
"Prince Consort, it's been two months since Yun came into the mansion. You should go and keep her company."
"Princess, I really only feel sympathy for Yun Shi. You are the only one I like. I know I was wrong and shouldn't have kept it from you..."
Han Wen kept explaining that he just wanted to reconcile with the eldest princess.
"My dear, I'm tired."
The eldest princess has heard these words so many times that her ears are callused.
Seeing her impatience, Han Wen didn't want to pester her any further, "Okay, Princess, take a rest."
After walking out of the room, the eyes that had just been filled with extreme grievance and pretended to be affectionate were now filled with anger.
In the past two months, he tried every possible way to please her. He ignored Yun and never went to her yard once.
He was so humble to the eldest princess that he even knelt down to admit his mistake.
But the eldest princess remained indifferent. He had never known that she was so difficult to please.
His patience was almost exhausted.
Now he only regretted that he had been soft-hearted and had not poisoned her immediately, using some slow-acting medicine, which had given her the opportunity to discover the truth.
If she died, there wouldn't be so many problems, and the entire princess would fall into his hands.
And the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in her hands will also be given to Han Tianrui.
That was left by the late emperor to the eldest princess, and even the emperor cannot control it. Without the eldest princess, Han Tianrui is the only heir.
But it's too late to say anything now. Rui Xin's poisoning has been discovered, and she is now on guard.
Now that there is no opportunity to take action, all you can do is endure.
Let’s see what King Chen’s next arrangements are.
…
As for Ruan Hezhu, she has recently devoted herself to pleasing King Xuan Yang.
Almost every day, he would go to Prince Xuanyang's mansion to play with Guo Muhuai.
She also made many imaginative little toys for him, which Guo Muhuai liked very much.
Moreover, Guo Muhuai's condition had improved, which made Prince Xuanyang and his wife like her very much.
Princess Xuanyang even wanted to adopt her as her adopted daughter.
This was an unexpected gain for Ruan Hezhu, as they had adopted her as their adopted daughter in her previous life.
Ruan Hezhu didn't dare to appear too anxious, for fear that they would think he had bad intentions.
The Prince and Princess Xuanyang are not ordinary people. They have sharp eyes, so she naturally has to be extremely careful.
She did not directly refuse the idea of adopting a daughter, but just said to wait a little longer.
She has just acknowledged Lady Ning'an as her adoptive mother. If she rushes to acknowledge Princess Xuanyang at this time, she wonders what rumors will spread outside.
Princess Xuanyang said that she would respect her wishes in everything.
Naturally, this matter also reached the ears of King Chen. He did not expect that Ruan Hezhu was really capable.
"Father, now that He Zhu has been recognized by Prince Xuanyang and his wife, is she qualified to be the Crown Prince's consort?"
Prince Chen nodded, "If you like her, father will naturally support you."
"However, cancelling the engagement with the Jiang family is no small matter. Furthermore, your marriage was granted by the Emperor. To cancel it, both parties must agree."
Prince Chen sighed, "Jiang Qingluo is deeply in love with you, I'm afraid she won't be willing to back down."
Song Yu immediately thought of Jiang Qingluo pestering him, and he said impatiently.
"She has to retreat even if she doesn't want to."
If Jiang Qingluo could cancel the engagement happily, he would still feel a little grateful to her.
If she continues to pester him, then don't blame him for not remembering the friendship they grew up together.
How can a person who has lost her innocence be worthy of being his prince's consort?
Thinking of this, a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
"Yu'er, don't be impatient. You need to take things step by step. In short, the cancellation of the engagement is not the fault of our Chen Palace."
King Chen said in a deep voice.
"Of course not. Jiang Qingluo is ignorant, arrogant and domineering. Everyone in the capital knows it. Everyone says she is not worthy of my son. It is reasonable to cancel this marriage."
Song Yu knew what his father meant, and the Chen Palace would not be the kind of heartless and disloyal people.
"Jiang Qingluo is not a good person, but she is lucky enough to be the daughter of Jiang Weizhen. Jiang Weizhen has guarded the border for many years and has made many military achievements. His prestige among the people is no less than that of King Xuanyang."
"No matter how bad Jiang Qingluo is, she has a respected father, and that is her greatest support."
Prince Chen clenched his hands, "If we, the Prince Chen's Mansion, cancel this engagement without a good reason, the people will only pity Jiang Qingluo."
"They think we are relying on imperial power to bully the heroes who defend our country."
People are like this. Regardless of whether they are right or wrong, they will sympathize with the weak, especially when this weak person is the hero in their hearts.
