Chapter 3 — Minh Nha Chieu Chieu

When he came out, his father's face was extremely serious. The old man thought for a long time, finally sighed and gave in. "If you are determined to do it... then don't worry."... Sure enough. Just a few days later. All over the capital, people were talking about whether Tham Van Xu really went to the Western Regions to find medicine or not, and about her inability to get pregnant. "The Western Regions are so far away, how can a weak girl like her go? What's more, she's still sick all year round." "Even merchants who have been traveling for many years are not sure that they can go and return safely." "The Emperor's descendants are already few, so how can the Crown Prince only think about himself? me? How unfilial!" "Miss Lieu is so innocent. Surely that lady of Ba Palace is jealous and does not accept..." The people were talking loudly. For a time, even the Crown Prince could not extinguish it. The Eastern Palace physician came in and out constantly. Perhaps they themselves are not sure, otherwise they would have come forward to correct it. Xu Nhi, whom he loved like his life, cried non-stop every day. Unable to silence the people, the Deputy Captain aggressively came to the door. In her eyes, there was also a resentment that was hard to put a name to. "Tan Chieu! You have to solve the problem that you caused!" "Xu Nhi wholeheartedly and wholeheartedly for me, only nine deaths and one life can bring the truth back. It's not your turn to change white for black!" I still calmly burned incense. I was too lazy to even raise my head. "I'm talking to you!" "Do you think everyone is like you? Just because you can't do it doesn't mean she can't do it too!" Just saying it straight. That on the day of the Queen Mother's banquet, I was greedy for life and afraid of death so I refused to jump down to save him. In my heart I just feel funny. What a coward. To love him is to sacrifice everything for him. As for the consequences... who cares?" Out of respect for old feelings, as long as you publicly apologize to Xu Nhi and return her innocence, I won't pursue this matter anymore." He raised his chin slightly. Show an appearance of fairness and integrity. As if I don't appreciate it then I'm unreasonable. "Impossible." I refused emphatically. The Deputy Lieutenant was so angry that he burst out laughing. "Tan Chieu, how long do you want to cause trouble?" "Not knowing right from wrong, baseless slander is the family style of your Tan family?" "The only person I love is Xu Nhi." "You are not even the tip of her finger!" "Just the fact that you ran away in panic that day at Thanh Ha Lake is enough to prove that your feelings are cheap and shallow!" Finally. He also said the words that were still buried in his heart. I coldly looked straight into his eyes. "And so?" "What?" He frowned with impatience. "If I hadn't been scared that day and had really jumped down to save you..." "And then what?" "Like Miss Lieu, will you let your hair down and become a nun?" "Or let your father beg the Emperor for your hand in marriage, ruining your promise to be a couple in a lifetime?" Then... Let you slaughter my whole family? He was stunned. Because... he never really thought about it. "You said you loved Tham Van Xu to death." "So do you know that she has a congenital heart disease and can't get married?" "Do you know that the two unmarried people have an affair, letting her get married before getting married will make her be laughed at by the world?" He only thought about satisfying himself. Have you ever thought about other people's lives and deaths? The Emperor has only one son, him. Born to stand on a high platform and be flattered by everyone. If you want wind, you will have wind. If you want rain, you will have rain. He only needed to take one step and countless people would take his place and calculate ten steps ahead. Why does he need to think for himself? The Deputy Lieutenant's face turned red. Wanting to explain but unable to say anything. "Me and Xu Nhi... us

I..." The hem of my dress moved slightly, leaving only a shadow of his back. Finally, the Deputy Lieutenant's embarrassment turned to anger. He chased after me, using his identity as Crown Prince to force me. "Tan Chieu! Don't be too arrogant!" "Your highness's affairs are not yet your turn to interfere!" Saying that, he took out a jade pendant. "This is the jade pendant that I sent someone to the Western Regions to redeem. Previously, Xu Nhi had pawned it." "If on Hoa Trieu day, you would publicly apologize to Xu Nhi..." "I wouldn't be unable to save some face for you." "If not..." "Even if Xu Nhi really can't give birth..." "The Eastern Palace door won't be as easy to enter as you think." I smiled softly. I quietly looked at him. Perhaps that look was too cold. To the point that he suddenly fell silent. Face... was never something someone else gave me. It was given by myself. Get it. You idiot. … The day of Hoa Trieu quickly arrived. At the foot of Van Tieu mountain on the outskirts of the capital. When I arrived, Deputy Lieutenant was cutting five-colored paper and hanging it on a flower branch, passionately. "Look, Miss Tan is here." "I heard that she came today to apologize to the Crown Princess." "Is it true?" "It's Bich Han next to the Crown Prince who said it, how could it be fake?" Just saw me. Tham Van Xu's eyes turned red again, his whole body gently leaning on Deputy's arms. It was clear that she really wanted me to apologize publicly in front of everyone. Otherwise, she would not have intentionally appeared at this time. Immediately after, his face darkened and he gave me a warning look. I slowly turned the Hoa Dien pearl necklace in my hand The nobles no longer had anything to do with each other. Of course, Deputy Lieutenant's expression became more and more gloomy. He slowly walked towards Tham Van Xu, perhaps opening his mouth to tease me a few words.
