"You can't say what the eunuch said. If someone hears it, it could be a big deal. If the court positions are determined by whether or not to marry two beauties, wouldn't that be a complete mess?"
"you?"
"You still dare to refuse my gift?" A hoarse voice was heard, and a pale yellow figure walked out from behind the pavilion.
Looking at the approaching Crown Prince, Shen Heng was stunned for a moment. So unlucky? She quickly bowed: "My lady greets His Royal Highness."
"Madam Xie, are you dissatisfied with my gift? Or do you think there are too few beauties? Then I will give you two more beauties." Has mysophobia? Very good, I will give Xie Jian a few more beauties and see if her mysophobia can be cured.
At this moment, Chen Heng even suspected that all the things that had happened to her in the past half day were arranged by the prince in front of her. She was overthinking it. Why would the crown prince target a woman like her? Could it be that Xie Jian did something to make him angry?
So take revenge on her?
No matter what, it’s a rejection. Once the beauty enters the house, the nature of the rejection will be different. If you reject her here, at most you will say that she is a shrew and not virtuous. At worst, you will force Xie Jian to divorce her. You can't put her to death.
Chen Heng took a deep breath and said firmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. Xie Jian will only have me as his woman in this life. I will never agree to him taking a concubine or having an affair with another woman."
"What if I must be given a beauty?"
"The woman would rather die than accept it."
"Okay, you're dead."
Shen Heng gasped. "Spring grass, oh, oh, she'd dug a hole for herself to jump into. What should she do? What should she do?" Suddenly, an allusion flashed through her mind. She raised her head and glared at the prince, who was dressed in a noble manner and not bad looking, but whose eyes were extremely annoying. "Okay, I'd rather die."
The father-in-law who was following him saw this and cried out in his heart, "Ouch!" He must not let anyone die. But he did not dare to persuade them easily, as if he did, he might lose his own life.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince looked unmoved.
"Madam, no." Seeing Madam Shen running to the lake, Ah Chan panicked and put down the box and was about to stop Madam Shen.
Unexpectedly, Madam Shen paused after jumping into the lake, bent over and looked at the lake, as if she was talking to someone.
The prince looked coldly at the woman not far away and snorted, "Jump, why don't you jump?"
Chen Heng silently said to herself, "As long as I'm not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed." Then she walked to the front of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, bowed, and said, "Your Highness, I was just about to jump into the river when I ran into Lord Qu Yuan who was visiting here."
"What?" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince frowned.
Chen Heng silently repeated, "As long as I'm not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed." She then said seriously, "Lord Qu Yuan asked why I wanted to commit suicide. I explained the situation. Lord Qu Yuan laughed and said he jumped into the river because the King of Chu was incompetent. The current emperor is diligent and wise, and the crown prince is even more talented and capable. He knows people well and appoints them to positions, and loves his people like his own children. He will become an emperor through the ages. How could he let a woman jump into the river? He certainly wouldn't force or criticize a woman. He must have been joking with her."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince stared at the woman in front of him for a long time, pointing at her with one hand. The words that day saying that he was a king of a fallen country were still ringing in his ears, and he felt a little blood in his throat again.
Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just stared at her without saying anything, Shen Heng repeated to herself, "It's not embarrassing, it's not embarrassing," and then said, "I think what Lord Qu Yuan said makes sense. No, no, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will definitely become a great and wise ruler in the future, an emperor who will be remembered for thousands of years."
If Ruoyu still insisted on forcing the beauty on Xie Jian, he would be the king of a ruined country.
The eunuch on the side saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's expression was very strange. He had served His Royal Highness for so many years, but he couldn't figure out what His Royal Highness meant. Madam Shen's flattery skills were really worth learning from.
