"I don't know King Kang, but he is your cousin, you should know the answer..."
"I don't even know myself, so who else can I know?" An Yanran got angry when she mentioned her cousin.
At the ancestral grave, he went there eagerly. She thought he came to see her, and even more so that he came from such a long distance just to comfort her. She was very touched. But in the end, he left after asking about An Qingran, which made her very depressed.
It’s better not to go.
"What about An Qingran? What do you think she will do? If her face is not looking good, what will she do?"
"She is very smart. She must have made the best plan for herself. She certainly doesn't take the people of the Shen family seriously. She has her eyes set on the higher places. Believe me, she is preparing to enter the palace with all her strength."
"But now the princes who are eligible for marriage are the crown prince, Prince Kang and Prince Ning. Could it be that she is interested in the crown prince?" An Ranyue was surprised. "That would be terrible. If she becomes the crown princess, we will have no chance of turning things around in this life."
After she said the word "we", An Yanran felt better.
She thought for a while and said, "It's useless to worry now. We'll deal with it when something happens. Fortunately, she is disfigured now, and ordinary men won't come forward. Even if she wants to marry the prince, where is the prince? Where is the emperor? Where is the queen? How can the royal family marry a disfigured woman? That is bad luck in itself, not to mention that the prince himself is a sickly child. I really can't say for sure about this matter..."
After hearing this, An Ranyue calmed herself down, said something else casually, and then said goodbye.
It was okay for her to come to see me at this time, but who knew if she was here to test my opinion? She didn't seem to have any idea.
The rumors not only spread to the general's mansion, but also to the imperial palace. Many people knew about this matter, not to mention Dongfang Jin, who was already very concerned about An Qingran.
Inside the Prince’s Palace.
Dongfang Jin sat there, frowning and relaxing his brows. After a while, he stood up and said, "Come here, bring me today's examiner... Wait, I'll go by myself."
Seeing this, the shadow guard stopped and watched the prince leave: What happened? I have never seen the prince so worried. Does the prince want to take part in the imperial examination?
Dongfang Jin didn't want to take part in the imperial examination. He just felt that there was a person whose character was not very good. Maybe he shouldn't enter the examination room, and even if he did, he shouldn't get any ranking.
Dongfang Jin finally finished what he wanted to do and he felt comfortable.
As it was getting dark, he thought about what to bring when he went to see An Qingran in the evening. She seemed to want nothing and had no desires, which made him feel at a loss as to what to do. However, she agreed to be his Crown Princess, and he was so happy that he didn't know what year it was. Even his mother noticed it and said that he was getting what he wanted recently.
When Dongfang Jin arrived at Qiwu Courtyard, An Qingran was embroidering. Dongfang Jin walked closer and saw the small orchid. She was amazed and asked, "Do you like orchids?"
An Qingran nodded: "Yes..."
"Do you like its nobleness, aloofness, and gentlemanly demeanor?" Dongfang Jin also likes orchids, so he was amazed.
An Qingran looked at him and said calmly, "The whole plant of Bamboo Leaf Orchid can be used as medicine. It has the effects of clearing away heat and toxins, dispelling rheumatism and promoting diuresis. Some orchids can also promote tissue regeneration, stop bleeding and relieve pain, and nourish the lungs..."
Dongfang Jin raised his eyebrows and smiled bitterly: "Okay, I understand. In your eyes, anything that can be used as medicine is good..."
"There are also bad things, such as poisonous insects and poisonous things..." An Qingran said with a smile.
"By the way, has Shen Zhihua proposed to marry you again recently? Has he harassed you?" Dongfang Jin's face turned serious.
An Qingran looked at him and sighed, "Of course."
"Really? What did he do?" Dongfang Jin asked her quickly.
"He lives in this general's mansion. Do you think it can be considered harassment?" An Qingran looked at him and smiled. "It's his business if he proposes marriage. You don't want to kick him out of the general's mansion, do you?"
"Not only that, I want to drive him out of the capital." Dongfang Jin did not hide his jealousy at all.
An Qingran was speechless.
Dongfang Jin came forward and said, "Well, I will tell my mother right away to marry you, the Crown Princess, into the palace as soon as possible, the sooner the better, okay?"
"I'm not old enough yet. It's against the law and ethics, and it will give people a chance to talk about me." An Qingran said helplessly.
"Don't worry about that, I'll take care of it."
"Could it be that the prince really doesn't care about my appearance? Would the royal family really let an ugly concubine like me enter the palace?" An Qingran felt it was outrageous and a little unbelievable.
"Qingqing, why do you always mention your appearance..." The prince sighed, "If you really have concerns about this..."
At this point, he suddenly pulled out the dagger from his waist, which scared An Qingran. An Qingran looked at him blankly: "What are you going to do?"
Dongfang Jin raised the dagger to his cheek and looked at An Qingran with a smile: "If my appearance is ruined, will you stop worrying..."
An Qingran rushed forward, yelling, trying to touch his acupoints. Dongfang Jin moved and floated to the side, avoiding An Qingran's touch. He just looked at her affectionately: "I just want to ask you, if my appearance is ruined, will you feel balanced?"
"Okay, don't destroy it. I won't mention my appearance anymore." An Qingran stopped walking, but her heart was still trembling. He really scared her just now. If he moved the dagger in his hand a little further forward, his face would be disfigured.
Her heart suddenly ached. It was the pain of fear and the fear of losing something.
Is she really afraid of losing him?
Her eyes were wet.
How lucky am I to meet this man in this life?
Looking at the mist in her eyes, Dongfang Jin was a little flustered: "I'm not threatening you, it's just that you keep bringing it up, and I'm anxious."
An Qingran nodded: "I have promised you that I will not mention the issue of appearance again, so you can put down your dagger..."
Dongfang Jin finally came to his senses and put away the dagger.
He slowly walked to An Qingran and held her in his arms: "You don't know how afraid I am of losing you..."
"Maybe I know." An Qingran murmured.
At this moment, An Qingran lay in Dongfang Jin's arms, her heart filled with happiness. She knew that now, her heart knot had been completely untied. She had already decided on the man in front of her in this life. He gave her an infinite sense of security. She didn't know what would happen in the future, but she was willing to gamble for him.
"You really don't want to enter the palace now?" Dongfang Jin asked her again.
