If he had known that Su La would rise so high in the future, he would never have broken off the engagement.
The queen held the blue and white porcelain cup slowly and leisurely, and her index finger with a long nail cover casually moved the tea leaves in the cup.
"Mother, what should I do? I cannot get these three thousand green crystals even if you kill me! You must help me!" The prince pulled his hair in frustration and squatted on the ground, looking decadent and embarrassed.
If he had known this would happen, he would not have been so impulsive as to gamble with them.
It would have been fine if he had just bet with Su Luo, but he happened to fall twice in the same place and lost to Nangong Liuyun the second time.
Unexpectedly, the queen's lips curled up into a sinister smile: "It's only 1,500 green crystals, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Not three thousand, a thousand..." The prince's voice stopped abruptly. How did it suddenly become fifteen hundred?
The Queen sneered, "If the Second Brother doesn't pay it back, it will be troublesome indeed, so we need to consider it carefully. As for that little girl, if she dares to ask for the debt from you, tell her to come to me."
The Queen is a typical example of someone who picks on the weak.
In her impression, Su Luo was still the infatuated, silly, and weak concubine of the Su family.
The prince was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "You don't know, mother, that the second son has a special affection for Su Luo. He will definitely stand up to help Su Luo collect the debt."
"How can the second son have such good taste? He would fall for a stinky girl who doesn't even want you?" The queen smiled confidently, "He's being nice to that girl just to piss you off."
The Queen was very determined.
No matter how good Su Luo was, how good could she be? What kind of vision did Nangong Liuyun have? As long as he wasn't blind, he would definitely just treat Su Luo as a plaything and would not actually marry her as a princess.
"This...but they have a very close relationship." The prince had a feeling that something was wrong.
He had met them face to face, and Nangong Liuyun's doting on Su Luo obviously didn't seem like an act.
"Haha." The Queen sneered repeatedly, "It is precisely because of this that Mother is certain that Nangong Liuyun is just playing with Su Luo. Think about it, if he really likes her, he would just marry her home directly. Why is he dragging his feet like this?"
Poor queen, how could she know that it wasn't that Nangong Liuyun didn't want to marry Su Luo, but that Nangong Liuyun was eager to marry Su Luo and hide her home.
But the problem is, Su Luo wants to enjoy the pleasure of being pursued, how can she marry herself so easily? The person who really disagrees is Su Luo.
"As for the crystals of the second brother, your mother will ask your father to come forward and say that it was just a joke between brothers." The queen did not think this matter was too troublesome.
"Is this really possible?" The prince found it a little unbelievable. Could it really be solved so easily?
"Could it be that the Second Brother would really ask you for these crystals? You are the crown prince, the future master of this empire. What is Nangong Liuyun?" The queen looked at the crown prince with certainty.
The prince was originally very afraid of Nangong Liuyun, but after hearing a few words from the queen, he suddenly felt that Nangong Liuyun was not that scary after all.
The Queen Mother was right. This entire empire would belong to him in the future. Did Nangong Liuyun really dare to ask him for crystals?
The Queen glanced at the Crown Prince coldly: "You are too unconfident and too weak, so you are always suppressed by Nangong Liuyun. Remember, in front of Nangong Liuyun, you must hold your head high and chest out!"
