His temperament was somewhat similar to Pei Zhujin's, but Pei Zhujin's eyes held sincerity and a touch of compassion, as pleasant as a spring breeze, while the Crown Prince seemed polite but indifferent, like a lotus flower blooming on a snow-capped mountain, coldly observing the world.
"I wish to serve His Highness the Crown Prince with utmost loyalty," Qiao Lian'er said calmly.
A look of surprise flashed across the Crown Prince's face. He asked directly, and Qiao Lian'er answered directly as well.
He glanced subconsciously at the door; there was no one else there, and Uncle Chang was still unconscious.
He got up, closed the door, and left only the back window open.
Even so, the light that came in was still mostly dim.
Even though no one is around, you can't leave the door wide open at this time, because some people specialize in lip reading.
The prince sat down again, his expression much more subdued, but his heart was pounding. The excitement and anticipation of being bumped into was indescribably wonderful.
Even in the dim light, Qiao Lian'er could still see the light in his eyes and feel the subtle excitement emanating from his body.
"Why me?" he asked.
"Because I find the Crown Prince pleasing to the eye, and because I see the Crown Prince as having the countenance of an emperor."
"But Father is in the prime of his life, and no one can say for sure what will happen in the future."
"I trust my judgment and I will stick to my choice." The girl's voice was still immature, but the determination hidden within it was truly moving.
"When did the princess come up with this idea?" The crown prince didn't really want to ask too much; he trusted this girl with extraordinary talent.
But he was also very curious; there must be a reason why Qiao Lian'er suddenly showed him kindness.
Qiao Lian'er said frankly, "Because my enemy is going to join the First Prince to deal with the Qiao family, I am willing to do my part for Your Highness and hope to gain Your Highness's protection."
She held nothing back, because apart from family and friends, the essence of human relationships is the exchange of benefits.
Why not put things out in the open, so that everyone understands the situation?
Since we're cooperating, there's no need to waste our energy guessing and speculating.
The Crown Prince was surprised again, but he had to admit that he liked Qiao Lian'er's attitude.
Direct and clear, without being long-winded or hiding anything.
In this way, he can be more targeted, instead of struggling to figure things out and remaining ambiguous.
"I understand what the princess is thinking. Let's meet here from now on."
The Crown Prince was very satisfied with this deal. Qiao Lian'er came to show her sincerity, bringing not only herself, but also the Qiao family generals and the Qiao family army, as well as Mu Xinghe.
Moreover, her father trusts her.
He felt more confident about the future.
After returning home, Qiao Lian'er felt refreshed and invigorated.
With the emperor and the crown prince captured, and with elite troops at her command, Mu Xinghe's future was limitless. She wanted to see what Pang Da could use to fight her.
Qiao Lian'er felt a bit emotional. Other people who transmigrate fight against oppressors and powerful figures, but she fights against her father. Does that mean she is a patricide?
Whoever it is, we welcome friends with good wine, and we meet wolves with hunting rifles.
She then checked on Ponda's progress, and sure enough, the Crown Prince was pleased to accept the defector who commanded the inner army.
Moreover, because of the Crown Prince's contact with her, the First Prince has become wary of the Qiao family and may make a move at any time. The fact that the Qiao family's enemies are trying to curry favor with him is exactly what he wants.
They agreed on a meeting place in a secluded and mysterious teahouse located in an inconspicuous alley. Once Qiao Lian'er confirmed the location, she could follow him at any time.
About two weeks later, she went to the fiefdom to see the results of Pei Shijiu's training.
