Chapter 3
Chapter 3 — The Crown Prince slapped me once because of the concubine, and I turned my hand back in front of the Queen
The person's movements are very light. Also very gentle.
“Model…”
My tears finally couldn't be held back any longer. They are like floodwaters breaking a dike, rushing out.
"Mother, he wants to kill me because of Lieu Oanh Oanh."
"He said I'm not worthy of being the Crown Princess."
“He also said that my position was all brought to me by someone else.”
I took all the heart-wrenching words that Tham Hanh said, repeating each sentence verbatim, without missing a single word. I originally thought the model would be angry. Will be angry. But people are not like that. People just listen quietly. The facial expression from beginning to end did not change even a bit. Like someone listening to a story that has absolutely nothing to do with them. Wait until I finish talking. The new person took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears on my face.
“Let's have some money.”
The person just leisurely said those two words.
"The daughter of the Co family, just because of a man, she sheds tears, what else can she do?"
He took my hand and led me back to the chair next to the phoenix seat.
“Van Chu, raise your head and look at me.”
I listened and raised my head. The model's eyes are very beautiful, a pair of standard phoenix eyes. Even if she is not angry, they still carry a majesty that makes others not dare to look directly at her.
"I asked you, do you still love him in your heart now?"
I was stunned. Still in love? The man on the shore of the lake looked at me with venomous eyes, then raised his hand and slapped me. The man held another woman in his arms, saying he would make my life miserable. In my mind, the scene just appeared over and over again. The answer in our hearts also becomes clearer than ever. I shook my head slightly.
“No more love.”
“From the moment that ace fell on my face, everything was dead.”
The Queen finally revealed a faint smile. That smile was very gentle. But it made the whole main hall, which was solemn and quiet, suddenly brighten up. However, the next words he said were colder than the cold wind outside the palace.
“If you no longer love, then there is nothing worth calling self-pity.”
“Van Chu, remember carefully, a man is nothing more than a stepping stone.”
“Love between men and women is the most useless thing in this world.”
"Only power is the only thing that can help you peacefully establish your destiny and stand firmly in the world."
He gently stroked my still red and swollen cheek and smiled faintly, but his voice was cold to the bone.
“Soon…”
“He will no longer be the Crown Prince.”
My whole body shook violently, and I immediately raised my head to look at him. Abandoned Crown Prince? This... This is absolutely not a small matter. Tham Hanh is the only son of his father, and his foundation in the court is extremely solid. Crown Prince Phe. It's almost like shaking the national flag.
“Model…”
“Shh.” The queen raised a finger to tell me to be quiet. Her eyes contained a layer of deep meaning that I could not see through.
“I don't need to worry about this.”
"From today onwards, there is only one thing you need to do, which is to do your duty as a Crown Princess well."
“The more he hates you, the more respectable and proper you have to be.”
"It The more you favor Lieu Oanh Oanh, the more generous and gentle you must be.”
“You have to let everyone see.”
“Co Van Chu is the only female master of the Eastern Palace.”
"As a Crown Princess, no one can criticize, and no one can refute."
“There are other things…”
The person stopped slightly. He reached out to pick up the cup of tea on the table that had long since cooled. Drink it all in one gulp.
“Just leave it to me.”
I look at people. Violent waves arose in my heart. I have always known my model is an extremely strong person. She is the daughter of the Co family. She is the Queen Mother of the world. However, I never thought that just because of me, you could utter the words "discard the Crown Prince". It seems like he has seen through every thought in my heart.
“Van Chu, you are not just for yourself.”
"I'm still for the Co family."
"Tham Hanh dares to slap you in the face, which is also slapping our Co family's face."
“The old family has never had to endure such humiliation before.”
The person stood up. Slowly walk to the window. Quietly looking at the gray sky outside.
“It's about to change.”
“This snow…”
“It's time to fall.”
When I stepped out of Kun Ninh palace. In the sky, small snowflakes had indeed begun to flutter.
