"Not so good? What's wrong?"
"It's all because of your idiot prince. He didn't even know he was about to be ambushed!"
"What did you say? Someone actually dared to assassinate the prince?"
Qin Qingyao rolled her eyes to the sky. Is her second brother stupid?
What do you mean someone dared to assassinate him? Isn't the crown prince's hat just a target for harm?
But if you want to sit on the throne just by defeating five enemies and six generals, you’re dreaming!
"Anyway, everything has already been arranged. Even if you want to investigate, it's too late. So, all we can do is strengthen our precautions!"
"First, think about it. If, on New Year's Eve, you were to lead the civil and military officials in offering sacrifices to the heavens, and a dignified prince were to pronounce the prayer incorrectly, wouldn't that be a disgrace to the entire family?"
Qin Yuelu laughed, "Sister, you're worrying too much. I drafted the prayer for the Crown Prince. I can guarantee there won't be any mistakes."
Damn, I guessed it right.
"There's no doubt that what you wrote is correct, but is it possible that the prince took the wrong thing when he left?"
"this……"
"Don't be so fussy. Just listen to me. It's always better to be more careful! You should know better than anyone what will happen to the prince if he makes a mistake in that situation!"
Qin Yuelu finally became serious.
"So, you must tell the prince to personally get the prayer book, check it and confirm it, and keep it close to him throughout the whole process!"
"It's such a thin piece of paper, he won't get tired even if he does it himself!"
"But that's not a piece of paper..."
How could the prince hold a piece of paper and read it in front of the civil and military officials? What he held was a huge roll of brocade that looked like an imperial edict!
You can't carry this with you!
Qin Qingyao took a long, deep breath. "There's nothing we can do. Today is the 28th, and the day after tomorrow is New Year's Eve. Tell the prince to memorize the prayer you wrote, word for word!"
"ah?"
Qin Yuelu looked embarrassed. Such a long prayer would take a long time to recite, and there was only one day left tomorrow. How could the prince memorize it?
"Why one day? It's clearly one day and two nights. He can't even memorize a prayer. He's so useless. How did he become the crown prince?"
"Little sister! Stop talking nonsense!"
"Alright, alright. I'm just worried about His Royal Highness. In short, you must listen to me on this matter. You must make sure that the Prince recites every word!"
Qin Yuelu nodded reluctantly, "Okay, I'll try my best."
Even if he agreed, it would be unlikely for Qin Yuelu to promise that the prince would memorize it, as he couldn't control the prince.
"There is a second thing, just as important as the first!"
"What's up?"
"Early in the morning on New Year's Day, the royal family will set out to the imperial mausoleum to worship their ancestors. Tell the prince that starting from the 30th day, he should avoid eating if possible. Especially on New Year's Day, he should not touch anything he eats, no matter who gives it to him!"
"Why?"
"Because someone wants to embarrass him, they'll put laxatives in everything he eats. Do you want to see a prince searching for a toilet in his ancestors' mausoleum during ancestral worship?"
Qin Yuelu's face was filled with black lines. Who would have thought of such a sinister trick? Where did his little sister hear all this messed up information?
"Okay, I understand."
"You alone can't know it, you have to let the prince know, and you have to keep an eye on him!"
Qin Yuelu nodded solemnly. Seeing his little sister's anxious look, he knew that she was definitely not joking with him.
Even if she was deceived by someone else and that was not the case at all, it would be beneficial for the prince to be more cautious.
After all, the emperor is getting older day by day, and the princes and princes in the palace are also growing up day by day...
While Qin Qingyao was giving her second brother numerous instructions, the Crown Prince, whom she cared about, was also busy.
It was not convenient for her to go to the prince herself, and not only might the prince not believe what she said, he would also definitely blame Dugu Yu. In order to avoid this trouble, Qin Qingyao did not tell him in person.
But after she pulled her second brother away, the prince went to the private room where she and Prince Wu Ling were staying.
After all, he was able to take time out of his busy schedule to attend this folk event today because of Dugu Yu's handwritten invitation stamped with his private seal.
So, you must seize the time to get closer to her!
"Prince Wu Ling, I never thought you would invite me to the party hosted by the Princess. It is truly novel and joyful. The Princess is so talented and quick-witted. She and Prince Wu Ling are truly a perfect match!"
Dugu Yu, "May I ask Your Highness to come down?"
The prince said, "Hmm? Is there some misunderstanding?"
Dugu Yu, "No, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to actually take time out of his busy schedule to come here. I am truly terrified!"
"Hahahaha, Dugu, you're welcome. This trip wasn't in vain. It really opened my eyes!"
Dugu Yu could see that Ling Jingyu really liked these shows and really enjoyed this party. It was quite relaxing. Did you have nothing to do in the palace?
Dugu Yu exchanged a few words with the prince, then stared at the performance below without saying a word.
The prince barely managed to hold on for two shows by himself. The atmosphere was so awkward that it almost froze, so he had to say goodbye.
"I still have some things to deal with, so it's inconvenient for me to stay outside the palace any longer. I'll take my leave now!"
"Go slowly, Prince!"
As soon as the Crown Prince walked out of the private room, Dugu Yu immediately called Zhao Jinghan in, "Where's the Princess?"
The damn girl insisted on pulling him over, and when he came, she ran away!
"I just saw the princess go to see the second young master of the Qin family."
"The prince has already left, but he's still not leaving? Go and bring her back to me!"
Zhao Jinghan, "Yes!"
Of course, Zhao Jinghan didn't have the courage to bring Qin Qingyao back, so he could only find someone to invite her back.
Qin Qingyao was now outside the small compartment, glaring at His Royal Highness Prince Duan.
"You are a prince, but you have a habit of eavesdropping. Isn't it shameful?"
Prince Duan looked at Qin Qingyao with amusement, "Princess Wu Ling's ability to slander others is really getting worse day by day. These compartments are for people to sit in. I just happened to be sitting next to you, so how did that make me an eavesdropper?"
Qin Qing would never believe him. Damn, could this original script have been written by a relative of Ling Jingxuan's? Why is he so lucky? He just walked into a small cubicle and got selected as an SSR!
She finally managed to catch Qin Yuelu to discuss some serious matters, but Ling Jingxuan might have heard everything!
"What did you hear?"
Ling Jingxuan glanced at the stage below and said, "Wow, this little song is sung really well. Did you teach her, Princess?"
Qin Qingyao was so angry that she jumped up and down, "Who asked you about the song?"
"Then what did the princess ask? Could it be that she wanted to know if I heard what you just said to your second brother?"
Qin Qingyao's eyes widened in alertness. Ling Jingxuan was obviously teasing her. She pinched her chin and said jokingly, "Let me think about it carefully. Ah, I can't remember!"
Damn, I really want to let the dog bite him to death!
Ling Jingxuan looked at Qin Qingyao, who was so angry that she was grinding her teeth, and suddenly bent down and put her face in front of Qin Qingyao. The distance between their noses was no more than a finger. Qin Qingyao was so scared that her eyes widened and her pupils dilated.
"Could it be that the princess just had some outrageous conversation with the Second Young Master of the Qin Family right next to me, and that's why she's so afraid of me hearing it?"
Qin Qingyao came to her senses and jumped back suddenly, "Stay away from me!"
After she finished speaking, she raised her sleeve and wiped her nose vigorously, because Ling Jingxuan was too close to her just now, and the hot breath from her words made the hair on her lips itchy.
Just at this moment, Zhao Jinghan half of his head appeared from the stairs behind Qin Qingyao.
To him, this scene looked exactly like Qin Qingyao had just jumped out of Prince Duan's arms!
And in Zhao Jinghan's opinion, the way she wiped her nose was definitely like she was wiping her mouth in disgust after being kissed forcibly.
Forgive Zhao Jinghan’s limited imagination, but apart from this, he really can’t think of a second possibility that fits the situation!
Prince Duan still had a gentle, saucy smile on his face, "Why are you feeling so guilty, Princess?"
Zhao Jinghan felt a chill in his heart, "..."
"I'm so guilty of you, you big-headed ghost. Do you think everyone is as evil as you, always plotting against others and wanting to make a big mess?"
Zhao Jinghan: What's the big deal? Are you trying to steal from Prince Wu Ling's palace? That's outrageous!
Ling Jingxuan was not angry at all. Instead, she looked relieved. "So Princess Wu Ling is my confidant. You know me so well?"
As he spoke, he suddenly took a step forward and put his arm around Qin Qingyao's waist. Qin Qingyao wanted to dodge, but it was too late. No matter how fast she was, she could not be faster than Ling Jingxuan, who was highly skilled in martial arts!
Ling Jingxuan didn't know where he pressed Qin Qingyao, but she was unable to move or even speak.
Her big eyes rolled around smartly, and every pore in her body was resisting. Her little face, twisted with anger, showed her inner thoughts at the moment very clearly.
"What do you want to do, you damn bastard!"
Ling Jingxuan tilted his head slightly, and whispered softly in her ear, "Princess, don't you know me best? I'm making a big deal. What do you think? Is Princess satisfied?"
"I am satisfied with your predecessors! Shameless! Rogue!"
Zhao Jinghan stood on the stairs and witnessed this scene from behind Qin Qingyao. This time, no matter how rich his imagination was, he could only see one thing, that is, His Royal Highness Prince Duan hugged their princess and kissed her cheek!
Zhao Jinghan clenched his fists, his whole body filled with murderous intent. His cold eyes stared at Prince Duan's neck, as if he was ready to rush over and bite him to death at any time.
Prince Duan knew when to stop, raised his head and let go of his hand. Qin Qingyao immediately regained his freedom of movement, then raised his foot and kicked His Highness Prince Duan in the crotch quickly, accurately and fiercely!
