Qin Ziyi and the others were sent away in a daze, and they were still in a daze even after leaving the Lu family.
"Old Qin, what does the Prince mean by this?" A hot-tempered old man frowned deeply. "We've come all this way, and he just dismisses us with this one sentence?"
"Yes, Elder Qin, it's not that we have any complaints about the Prince's actions, it's just... he should have explained things more clearly!"
"Sigh, what a wasted trip. We still don't know whether the Prince intends to ascend the throne, or when he will do so..."
The group sighed and groaned, all feeling uneasy.
Qin Ziyi also frowned, but did not speak.
He was also somewhat confused by Lu Yanzheng's words. What did he mean by this?
Meanwhile, Jiang Qinyu looked at Lu Yanzheng and asked, "What exactly did you mean by what you just said?"
Lu Yanzheng helped her sit down, then pulled up a chair and sat beside her, holding her hand and looking into her eyes as he asked, "Do you want me to ascend the throne?"

Lu Yanzheng frowned. "Which bastard is spouting nonsense? Who said that I'm going to open up a harem after I ascend the throne?"
"Isn't this the usual practice for every emperor?" Jiang Qinyu raised an eyebrow, not wanting to let the question go easily.
Lu Yanzheng felt heartbroken. He looked directly into her eyes, held her hand tightly, and said, "Never mention the word 'divorce' again in this lifetime."
Jiang Qinyu remained noncommittal.
Lu Yanzheng continued, "Originally, I hadn't made up my mind, but now I can tell you, I will not ascend the throne."
If his ascension to the throne would cause Jiang Qinyu to have wild thoughts, then he absolutely cannot become emperor. There are always other ways to properly settle the common people, but he can only have one wife. If he loses her, who will he complain to?
“Uh,” Jiang Qinyu choked, “If you don’t ascend the throne, who will be the emperor?”
