Chapter 5 — Scars in the Crown Prince's Eyes

He brought a marriage gift and was waiting for me to return from the palace to officially propose. Seeing the carriage stop, he walked forward and said: "Tham Au Ninh, you are definitely not chosen to be the Crown Princess. But I have prepared a surprise for you." "Today I officially came to marry you..." Trieu Tien was full of joy, raising his hand to open the carriage curtain. Immediately after that, his whole body stiffened and stood still.09Hua Than An originally wanted to come here secretly, without alarming my parents. But after hearing Trieu Tien's words, he changed his mind. He got out of the car and carefully held out his hand to help me down. His face remained calm, but the hand holding my hand forgot to let go. He calmly said to Trieu Tien: "Mr. Trieu, you guessed wrong. Au Ninh has agreed to be your Crown Princess. When the wedding date is set, I will not forget to send invitations to Mr. Trieu." Trieu Tien's face turned pale: "Tam Au Ninh, is this true?" I gently nodded. He looked at me in disbelief and asked in a hoarse voice: "Why? The one who was your childhood friend, grew up with you since childhood, is me." "Tham Au Ninh, I said I would marry you. Why didn't you wait for me?" I looked at him, calmly said: "Trieu Tien, I used to wait for you. But you exposed my wounds time and time again, trampling my face under your feet. Therefore, I long ago decided to let you go." "I just let you go." Just joking with you. Have you forgotten that I still think about you? Besides, I have never hated you." I calmly replied: "But when I am with you, I only have to endure endless resentments, being forced to be a person who quarrels all the time, but the damage that has been caused will not disappear." Trieu Tien's face was drained of blood, he felt a dull pain in his chest, his eyes filled with tears. full of bitterness. He was about to come forward and say something more to me. But Hua Than An blocked in front of him: "Trieu Tien, Au Ninh said it very clearly. Do you still want to get involved endlessly?" His cold eyes made Trieu Tien's whole body shake. If he wants to compete with His Highness the Crown Prince, he must also consider how much power he has. 10My parents were both happy and worried when I became the Crown Prince. They worry too much about the rules in the Eastern Palace, afraid that we won't be able to adapt. Makes me stressed too. The wedding date has been set, I need to go to the palace first to learn the etiquette with my mother. Hua Than An takes time from official duties and takes me home every day. I casually told him what rules I had learned today, and how seriously my mother taught etiquette. I also said that because I was so bored, I almost fell asleep, causing my face to turn scary dark. Hua Than An smiled and listened to me say everything, gently replied: "Au Ninh worked so hard for me, I will remember it in my heart. I just hope time passes a little faster, and once you get married, you won't need to study anymore." I felt a bit embarrassed again: "It's not that hard. I just talk a lot, I can't help but want to tell you." "If you want to say anything, I like to listen." The next day when I entered the palace, my mother prepared snacks again. for me, it also reduces the pace of teaching. She also called a few lovely and intelligent palace maids to come and chat with me. I am much happier, no longer feel that studying rules is boring and tasteless. A few days later, Trieu Phi Dao's time to visit her mother's house ended and she had to return to her husband's house. She specially invited me to meet her. Even though I don't want to meet Trieu Tien, for the sake of propriety, I should still go and say goodbye to Trieu Phi Dao. When I arrived at Trieu palace, Trieu Tien did not appear, so I breathed a sigh of relief. Trieu Phi Dao pulled me aside, sighed and said: "Au Ninh, you are about to become Crown Princess, I should congratulate you."

soot. But I'm Trieu Tien's older sister, seeing her suffering and tormenting every day, I really can't bear it." "I've told her many times, if you don't say something nice, sooner or later you'll have to suffer." "His personality is so heartless, but on weekdays when he sees something good, he always thinks of saving it for me. When he was young, someone bullied his sister. He went to fight them and had a nosebleed before returning. Because I made a kite for you, my finger was pricked by a needle and I didn't say anything." "I saw it all. It really puts me in your heart, and I like it too. Such childhood love, it's truly a pity to miss it." "Au Ninh, can you give it another chance?" I smiled faintly: "Sister Phi Dao, others bully me because Trieu Tien started teasing me first. He also intentionally destroyed my favorite kite." "Every time he brought me something, it was because he made me cry, and then came to comfort me." "Moreover, I don't like arguing with others. But every time I'm with him, I'm always provoked to anger. Everyone says I have a hot-tempered, arrogant personality and am difficult to get along with." "Now I just feel lucky because Trieu Tien has never come to seek marriage before. Now he and I no longer have the ability." Trieu Phi Dao looked behind the screen and sighed: "If you have thought carefully, then I will not advise you anymore."
