"Your Highness, your relationship with my younger sister is still far from settled! You may not care, but my younger sister is a girl, and her reputation is very important!"
Therefore, for the sake of my younger sister's reputation, I urge Your Highness not to say such things in the future!
"I beg Your Highness's forgiveness for any overstepping of your bounds!" Jing Shu said to the Crown Prince.
"Regardless of whether there's even a hint of that, I will marry He Xue."
"Guarjia Jingshu, I thought I made myself clear to you last time. Since you don't understand, I can tell you again: I, Aisin Gioro Yinreng, am determined to marry Guarjia Hexue!" The Crown Prince's eyes shone with a resolute and firm light.
"Your Highness, my younger sister's name is Guarjia Unaxi!"
Jing Shu's words almost made the Crown Prince choke on his own saliva.
"Is this a question of whether the name is right or wrong?" The Crown Prince had no idea what Jing Shu was thinking. Had he gone crazy from reading too much?
"Your Highness, you've even gotten my sister's name wrong, yet you still want to marry her? Doesn't that seem incredibly insincere? It makes one wonder about your true motives for marrying her!"
"You...you..." The Crown Prince gritted his teeth and pointed at Jing Shu, "If you weren't Xue's older brother, I'd show you today why the flowers are so red!"
“Your Highness, Father said that if anyone wants to marry my younger sister, they must guarantee that they will only have her and will not take concubines. I'm afraid Your Highness cannot do that?” Jing Shu asked rhetorically.
The Crown Prince was speechless for a moment. He usually felt annoyed watching his father and the concubines interact. He preferred to spend his life devoted to one person.
"I can assure you that there will be no other woman in my Yuqing Palace before I marry He Xue! Even if it's a mosquito, it can only be a male!"
"As for the future, if the Crown Prince can't do something, can't he just change his identity and do it?" the Crown Prince said, looking at Jing Shu.
Jing Shu was terrified by the Crown Prince's "treasonous" idea. Would the history books later say that He Xue was a femme fatale?
"Since I am going to marry He Xue, I will protect her completely!"
"Since Your Highness says so, there is something that still requires Your Highness's attention!" Jing Shu said bluntly.
"As long as it concerns He Xue, I will not shirk my duty!" The Crown Prince should not get involved in any messy matters.
“It is indeed related to He Xue!” Jing Shu said with a frown. “Recently, there have been some bad rumors about He Xue in the capital!”
"I have also found out who is behind this, but I feel that things are not so simple, so I would like to ask the Crown Prince for help!" Jing Shu then told the Crown Prince about the rumors that had been circulating in the capital.
"Have you found out who's behind this?" the Crown Prince asked expressionlessly. If someone in the palace is targeting He Xue, how come there are people outside the palace as well?
"Ulanara Rouze!"
"Who is she?" The crown prince had no recollection of this person.
Jing Shu was speechless. Rou Ze had been trying her best to impress the Crown Prince, so how come the Crown Prince had no recollection of her at all?
"A girl who greatly admired you at my maternal grandmother's birthday banquet!"
"Don't talk nonsense! I don't know anyone like that!" The Crown Prince hurriedly distanced himself, wondering if it was a trap set by Jing Shu for him!
Jing Shu was speechless—his mother opened the door for him, speechless as he arrived home. "Your Highness, it's that girl who targeted He Xue!"
"Oh, I don't remember. I'll have someone investigate. People like that shouldn't stay in the capital! They're too dangerous!" The Crown Prince said this as casually as if he were discussing the weather.
Jing Shu didn't think there was anything wrong with the Crown Prince's handling of the matter. "Thank you for your trouble, Your Highness!"
"No need for formalities, we're all family!" the Crown Prince said, waving his hand.
Seeing Jing Shu's angry but speechless expression, the Crown Prince asked another pointed question.
