He should keep this to himself, rather than say it aloud, so as not to cause her trouble.
Having figured this out, the crown prince felt relieved.
Her smile was as gentle as a spring breeze: "Your Highness is wise."
Having eliminated the eldest prince, he was naturally in a good mood, having lost such a major threat who opposed him.
Looking at Qiao Lian'er, he said very sincerely, "Miss Qiao, you have helped me a lot. If you have any requests, I will do my best to fulfill them for you."
Although dealing with the eldest prince was Qiao Lian'er's own wish, the crown prince had made the offer, so it would be a pity if she didn't take this opportunity.
Originally, her relationship with the Crown Prince was one of mutual benefit: I would do things for you, and you would reciprocate.
Her slender fingers gently stroked the cup, and after a moment of contemplation, she made a request.
“I still have some family members in Datian Village. My eldest cousin and second uncle are stationed there as captains, so they can’t leave. If they can come to the capital to reunite with me, I will be extremely grateful to the Crown Prince.”
Although the two elders were attached to their homeland and wished to stay in the village to live out their remaining years, she could easily send them back to Datian Village. Whenever they wanted to go back, it was never a problem.
Compared to that, they prefer the whole family to gather in the capital, where they can go shopping, relax, and watch plays. Moreover, the capital has a wealth of festival activities, making life more colorful and exciting.
If the two elders stayed in Datian Village with a peaceful mindset, then in Beijing, they were often filled with joy and always had smiles on their faces.
As for Brother Dayong and Second Uncle, the capital city is a larger platform for them to showcase their talents and abilities.
Sister-in-law Lingyin and Second Aunt have large shops under their management and are bosses to work for them; they are incredibly influential.
A few years ago, Qiao Lian'er had a wish to have her whole family together in the capital, and traveling between the two places also required time and energy.
The Crown Prince is very sincere, so she proposed it. If it can be achieved, then everyone will be happy.
Chu Yaoce fell into thought: "The Qingfeng Plains camp no longer has any places to accommodate the Qiao family."
"Yes, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until now. Although I want them to come to the capital, it can't be at the expense of their future."
When Brother Dayong, Second Uncle, and Brother Xiaomeng arrived in the capital, they could only be idle or seek minor positions in other troops, which was certainly not as prestigious as being stationed at the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry.
The Crown Prince understood Qiao Lian'er's meaning: the other members of the Qiao family should come to the capital, but what they receive cannot be worse than what they currently possess, otherwise it wouldn't be worth the trip.
But Qiao Lian'er had done him a great favor, so he naturally wouldn't let the Qiao family's dream go unfulfilled.
He said, "If I were to ask my father to transfer the Qiao family to the capital, it would be too blatant. In my father's eyes, it would be tantamount to confirming that I am too close to the Qiao family."
"Therefore, it is best to find a roundabout plan."
Qiao Lian'er had a sudden inspiration: "My eldest cousin and second uncle's superior is General Guan, who has made great contributions in battle. What if they were both transferred to the capital?"
If General Guan's family also comes to the capital, it will be a good thing. The two children will grow up in the capital and their perspectives will be different in the future.
The Crown Prince's slightly furrowed brows relaxed: "I know that General Guan. He has made considerable contributions, and there are records of him in the Ministry of War in the capital."
"That makes things easier. We'll apply for the entire unit to be transferred to another location. Of course, this isn't something I'll do myself; someone else will handle it. Princess, just wait for the news."
Troop transfers to different locations are very common, especially for small units like this. The Ministry of War can make the decision, and it can be mentioned briefly to the emperor as a routine matter.
