Chapter 88 Heart to Heart
Su Qingqing looked at the Crown Prince in front of her in shock.
Before she was shot with an arrow and killed on the battlefield, she had had several interactions with this prince. She always felt that he was cold and a typical high-class woman.
I really didn't expect that this prince actually loved his childhood sweetheart so passionately.
Tsk~
This deep love really touched Su Qingqing. She looked at Rong Que's sad expression, sighed, and asked curiously: "Since His Highness likes this girl so much, why doesn't he marry her into the mansion?"
Rong Que shook his head and smiled bitterly, "No."
Su Qingqing thought for a moment, "Are you worried that she won't be able to adapt to the dangers of this mansion?"
According to Rong Que's description, he cherished that girl so much, he must be afraid that she would suffer the slightest injustice.
Su Qingqing patted her chest and assured, "Your Highness, don't worry. If you bring her in, I will definitely love her like my own sister and will never let her suffer any grievances. As for the status, when our cooperation is over, this Crown Princess will be hers..."
Originally, when Rong Que mentioned his beloved, he felt waves of intense pain in his heart, but now that Su Qingqing suddenly mentioned the end of the cooperation in the future, his aching heart tightened for no reason, and a sense of panic surged up.
"Wait... wait until our cooperation is over, what are your plans?" Rong Que looked at Su Qingqing, staring into her eyes, trying to see through this person.
Su Qingqing took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "When the cooperation is over, I will return to our Zhao Kingdom."
She came to Dayan Kingdom for revenge.
Now that her great revenge has been achieved, she must of course return to Zhao State to take care of the original owner's parents.
You can't occupy the original owner's body for nothing, especially since the original owner's parents and brother had such a good relationship with her.
Thinking of her brother who was far away in Zhao State, Su Qingqing had a gentle smile in her eyes, but at the same time, when she thought of Su Jinghe, the smile became a little bitter.
Rong Que looked into Su Qingqing's eyes, and he saw the sadness in her eyes at the moment. Without even thinking, he asked, "Are you sad? Why?"
Su Qingqing was stunned, and looked at Rong Que. Their eyes met, and seeing the anxiety in each other's eyes, Su Qingqing curved her eyes and smiled, "Your Highness, do you believe what I said before?"
Rong Que was stunned.
“I said before that I tried every means to come to the Great Yan Kingdom just to avenge General Su who has the same name as me.
What I am doing now is also working hard step by step.
Since I came to the Great Yan Kingdom, I have not dared to relax at all, for fear that I would miss the best opportunity if I relaxed a little.
I tried my best to plan every step, trying to make sure that every link is connected and there would be no problems in any link.
Now, with the help of His Highness, I have achieved a small success, severely damaging the Duke of Zhenguo and allowing Gao Tiankuo and others to return to the army."
Su Qingqing spoke very slowly, one word at a time, as if she was saying something extremely heavy, but her voice also sounded like she was laughing, but this laugh was even more sad to the ears than no laugh at all.
Rong Que didn’t know how others felt, but he felt a sour feeling in his chest.
Su Qingqing looked into the distance, a little dazed, "I did all this without asking anyone to praise me or anything, but... Jinghe is Su Qingqing's biological sister, but I can't share her with her."
The lush branches and leaves overhead blocked the sunlight, breaking it up into small pieces and scattering it down.
Bright spots fell on Su Qingqing's fair face.
Rong Que saw boundless loneliness on this face.
He couldn't help but pull Su Qingqing's hand, "I'm here, I can accompany you."
Su Qingqing lowered her head, looked at Rong Que's hand, and then smiled and said, "Your Highness has never told me why you are also rushing around for General Su's affairs?"
Rong Que's hand holding Su Qingqing suddenly froze, and then he quickly withdrew it. Unexplained panic rose from his heart. He avoided Su Qingqing's gaze and lowered his eyes and said, "I trust her."
Su Qingqing opened her eyes wide.
Yeah?
How come I didn't know there was trust between us?
Su Qingqing was silent, so Rong Que said, "She... is the best person I have ever met."
Su Qingqing was about to drink and was nearly choked to death by these words.
Why does this sound so sentimental?
"Your Highness, are you very familiar with this General Su?" Su Qingqing asked calmly.
Rong Que nodded.
In the past, he was full of doubts about the Princess of Zhao, but ever since the case of the military rations of the Xishan camp, he completely believed that this person came to the Kingdom of Yan to avenge General Su.
Since they had the same goal, he didn't want to hide it.
Besides, he really wanted to talk to someone.
"General Su doesn't spend much time in Kyoto, but every time she comes back, we meet."
Su Qingqing's eye twitched.
ah?
How come I don’t know this?
When did I meet you?
Did you remember it wrong?
Su Qingqing tried hard to recall her interactions with the Crown Prince, but apart from the occasional encounter, there was really nothing else.
Su Qingqing looked at Rong Que with suspicion and complexity.
Rong Que smiled bitterly and drank all the wine in the glass. "Let's not talk about this anymore. What are you going to do next?"
Su Qingqing said, "Your Highness already has a plan, right? Otherwise, why would Your Highness tell the Duke of Zhenguo that Rong'an Marquis was going to Zhending?"
Rong Que looked at her in astonishment, "You even know this?"
Su Qingqing smiled, "Not only do I know this, I also know that several years ago, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saved a scholar from a bully. The bully was the younger brother of the concubine of the Duke of Zhenguo. The scholar was called He Chao."
Rong Que was stunned.
This woman always refreshes his understanding of her.
Su Qingqing seemed to enjoy Rong Que's reaction and laughed, "Do you know why I know this? Because I'm a deity!"
Jixiang happened to come over and handed the roasted meat to Su Qingqing, "Fairy, eat it."
Su Qingqing chuckled, "Thank you, Jade Rabbit."
Jixiang rolled his eyes, "So this fairy of yours is Chang'e? That's not good, Chang'e is all alone. I hope you can meet your true love and live happily ever after."
Su Qingqing stretched out her hand and pinched Jixiang's face, "Look at this little mouth, maybe it's smeared with osmanthus honey."
Jixiang stuck out his tongue, "I speak from the heart ."
Su Qingqing hummed, "Wait until we find a true love for Jixiang. When you get married, I will give you a beautiful wedding dress."
There was a buzzing sound in Rong Que’s mind.
When you get married, I will give you a ten-mile red wedding dress.
These words overlapped word for word with a joke someone had made back then. Although the content was different, the mischief in the eyes was exactly the same.
"When Your Highness gets married, I will send His Highness a gift ten miles away."
They met by chance at the flower show that year, and Su Qingqing joked with him.
Rong Que's heart trembled and he could no longer sit still. He stood up suddenly and walked away in a panic.
Minglu was stunned and followed hurriedly.
Jixiang looked at the master and servant in surprise, "My Lady, what happened to His Highness? He was fine just now?"
Su Qingqing was no longer surprised. "Maybe my red dress reminded him of his sweetheart. Let him be. Let's eat meat."
After leaving Su Qingqing's courtyard, Rong Que went straight to the study.
As soon as he entered, he slammed his fist on the table. What was wrong with him? Why did he always become distracted and lose his mind when facing the princess of Zhao country?
At that moment, he actually mistook her for that person and grabbed her hand!
