Everything the queen says is right

Good guy, it's okay if I don't say it, but when I say it, everyone will find out.

"Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince chase Miss An here just now? Why has he disappeared since then?"

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on An Qingge.

She pretended to be a little flustered and quickly waved her hand.

"No, His Highness arrived here, but then he said he would wait for me in the pavilion, so he left alone."

After her words, the eldest princess nodded thoughtfully.

"Well, since the prince has not been seen for so long, it is not appropriate. I will take you to see the surprises in the depths of the garden, so let's go look for the prince first."

Naturally, no one dared to object to the eldest princess's proposal.

Especially those princes, all of them were holding back the mentality of watching the fun.

After all, if the prince falls, the possibility of them becoming princes will be greatly increased. Who will be in trouble with the throne?

The eldest princess glanced around, taking in everyone's reactions.

Very good, this is the effect she wants now.

Now that the decision has been made, everyone will naturally follow the eldest princess to find the prince, but before that, the eldest princess feels that it is necessary to make some clarifications for An Qingge.

It's more of a clarification than a separation of relations.

"Qingge, since the prince is waiting for you, then you should go with me, lest the prince blame you for not seeing you for a long time."

Look, the meaning of the eldest princess's words is so obvious.

To make it clear, it was said that the prince deliberately wanted to pester An Qingge. If An Qingge was late, he would be blamed by the prince.

In this way, the jealousy of other noble ladies towards An Qingge was reduced by more than half.

It also effectively maintained An Qingge's reputation.

"Yes, Qingge thanks the eldest princess for protecting her."

An Qingge bowed Yingying and cast a grateful look at the eldest princess.

How could she not know that the eldest princess was doing this for her own good.

In order to clear up the relationship with the prince, the eldest princess has already achieved this situation for herself, so she should cooperate with the eldest princess to continue this drama.

As for how to act well, that is the next most important thing.

"Eldest Princess, His Royal Highness must have been waiting in the pavilion for a long time. We need to find him quickly, otherwise..."

An Qingge didn't say the next words, but her pursed lips said everything.

Everyone recalled the prince's previous attentiveness to An Qingge and An Qingge's lukewarmness and even dodge, and they immediately had the answer in their hearts.

It seems that this is a story about the goddess' unintentional love for King Xiang.

Then they would be happy to see this situation.

For the princes present, if the power of Zuo Xiangfu behind An Qingge was taken away by the prince, it would pose a great threat to them.

For these young ladies, An Qingge's family background was already superior to theirs, and besides, she was liked by the prince, so she was basically a confirmed crown prince.

Of course they are extremely happy to see such a scene now.

For a moment, everyone was ready to find the prince with the mentality of watching a good show.

Although the pavilion is deep in the garden, it is actually not too far away.

The large group of people didn't walk long before they saw the prince and...another woman sitting in the pavilion.

"Why is there another woman beside His Royal Highness? Isn't he just waiting for Miss An?"

There are always good people who clarify the matter first and ask questions at once.

This actually made everyone stunned for a moment, and then they immediately became interested in watching a good show.

The co-prince openly made an appointment with An Qingge, but secretly took advantage of his free time to secretly have a tryst with another woman.

However, everyone's thoughts were interrupted before they lasted long.

"That woman seems to be a goddess..."

"What? Are they the goddess and the prince?"

Someone came up to take a look and gave a definite answer.

"Yes, the prince is with the goddess!"

Hearing what everyone said, the eldest princess and An Qingge looked at each other in tacit understanding, without speaking to each other.

Instead, the people below started talking.

"Didn't the prince and the goddess have little contact with each other? Why are they still having such a good conversation today?"

"It doesn't look like that to me. It looks more like His Highness the Crown Prince is discussing something with the Goddess?"

These words caused everyone to raise their eyes and look at the two people in the pavilion carefully.

Don't tell me, the prince is really discussing something with the goddess.

Looking at the prince, she frowned for a while, and then looked confused. On the other hand, the goddess looked calm all the time, and she looked more like the person who gave advice to the prince.

"What can the prince and the goddess discuss?"

These words simply asked what everyone was thinking.

Yes, one is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the future crown prince of the country, and the other is the goddess, even the emperor must respect them more.

These two people are both people who stand on power. When they get together, what is there worth talking about?

It would be an ordinary chat, but not only did they find such a pavilion hidden deep in the garden, but they also chatted until they didn't find these people.

Everyone made small calculations in their minds and had some guesses and ideas.

The secret conversation between the goddess and the prince is definitely brewing some decisions related to the future.

The eldest princess looked at their expressions and knew that her goal had been achieved.

"Okay, you all shut up."

The eldest princess's majestic and sharp gaze was like an invisible sharp knife, slowly passing over everyone, making everyone's hearts tremble unconsciously.

"I'm warning you that there are some things you should say and some things you shouldn't say. If you say the wrong thing, your heads will fall to the ground. Just take care of yourself."

Her words caused quite a ripple in everyone's hearts.

"Yes."

Although everyone agreed, the thoughts in their hearts seemed to have taken root and sprouted, growing crazily.

At this time, Ah Cha glanced outside and took a casual sip of tea.

"Prince, a lot of people suddenly came outside. Look..."

The prince looked back subconsciously following her words, and was immediately startled.

"When...when...there were so many people...out there...?"

Ah Cha shook his head gently, "I don't know either."

"It's just the prince, don't forget the rules you promised me earlier."

Hearing her mention the rules, the prince was startled again.

Yes, he also promised the goddess to abide by the rules. If he breaks the rules, he will be finished.

"But there are so many people outside, how should we explain it?"

How to explain?

Ah Cha raised her eyebrows slightly, her eyes full of disdain and ridicule.

The prince's question is really ridiculous.

She is an upright goddess and has nothing to do with the prince. Is she still afraid of being seen?

Besides, the secret conversation between the prince and herself was seen by everyone, and then everyone made speculations in their minds. Later, it was spread to the emperor's ears. This was the purpose and effect she wanted.

So after Acha took a deep look at the prince, he moved his gaze away.

"Prince, as long as you don't forget my rules, you can explain it any way you want."

The prince almost cried on the spot when he heard this.

He was originally asking the goddess what kind of excuse he should give her now that their conversation was being watched by everyone.

But the goddess obviously had no intention of answering his words.

Although the prince is stupid, he can still tell the difference between right and wrong.

For example, at this moment, he clearly knew that if he didn't find a suitable explanation, the emperor would definitely not let him go if today's incident was reported back to the palace.

"My Lady Goddess, I really have no idea, please help..."

Unfortunately, Ah Cha interrupted him before he could finish his words.

"Prince, they have already approached, do you still want to stay in the pavilion?"

I have to say, this is simply a very deadly problem.

Everyone is already here. If the prince still insists on staying in the pavilion, and with the secret conversation between him and the goddess today, everyone will think that he has planned something.

But if the prince walks out, then he must give a suitable reason, a reason that convinces everyone.

Otherwise, the purpose of his secret conversation with the goddess is extremely impure.

But Acha didn't bother to care about what the prince was thinking or struggling with now. She raised her feet and walked out of the pavilion, and happened to face the eldest princess and An Qingge who were just a step ahead.

The three of them exchanged quick glances with a tacit understanding.

"My Lady Goddess, why are you here?"

The eldest princess's question was extremely official, and there was a hint of questioning in it if you listen carefully.

However, Ah Cha understood her intention instantly and immediately picked up the conversation.

"Princess, I am resting here. The prince happened to be here, so I just had a few words."

Ah Cha's words were loud enough for everyone present to hear clearly.

With one word, she put all the responsibility on the prince.

It was the prince who took the initiative to come to the goddess for a secret conversation. Doesn't this further illustrate that the prince's ambition is not small?

After Ah Cha finished speaking, An Qingge also asked the doubts in his heart.

"Goddess, but His Highness the Crown Prince clearly said he would wait for me here?"

"Then I don't know. You can ask the prince."

After Ah Cha finished speaking, the prince walked out of the pavilion.

With so many eyes staring at him at the same time, the prince would inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.

He was about to say something when he heard An Qingge ask with tears in his eyes.

"Your Highness, didn't you say you were waiting for me here? Then why are you talking to the goddess here?"

The prince didn't expect that she was here, let alone that she would question him like this. He was speechless and couldn't find the right words.

"I...this palace is just..."

Seeing that the prince was hesitating for a long time without any explanation, An Qingge deliberately bit his lips angrily, and every word seemed to be accusing the prince of his crimes. "Prince, I didn't expect you to be such a treacherous person, not even counting what you said yourself!"

After saying that, she covered her lips and ran away.

Everyone was a little overwhelmed by this sudden situation.

Ah Cha, on the other hand, suppressed her laughter and spoke seriously.

"Qingge may be sad. I'll go see her."

That's what he said, but she could actually tell that An Qingge's covered lips were just trying to hide her smile.

But don't tell me, she also wanted to laugh when she saw the prince's appearance.

The current prince is like the kind of fool who shows up but doesn't know anything on the inside.

Seeing them leaving, the eldest princess didn't say anything, she just looked at the prince up and down a few times.

"Prince, I specially brought everyone here to see the surprise I have prepared, but I didn't expect you to be talking to the goddess here, but I took the liberty to disturb you."

The prince is really incapable of making excuses.

He really wanted to openly tell everyone the content of his conversation with the goddess, but he didn't dare.

However, the goddess is still far away now, and even having ten mouths is not enough to explain her.

Just by looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, he could guess with his toes that he must have been misunderstood and had some ulterior talk with the goddess.

But after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't even think of a suitable word.

The most terrible thing is that Zhang Ming, the only staff member he brought with him, has been left behind. Now he really doesn't have anyone around him who can give advice.

He really had no choice but to look at the eldest princess for help.

"Auntie Huang, this palace is..."

"Okay, the prince doesn't need to explain anything to me."

The eldest princess raised her hand to signal him to shut up, and then continued.

"The surprise I have prepared for you has been waiting for a long time. I have been wasting some time looking for you, so hurry up now."

Are you kidding, she is not a fool.

Of course, it was clear that it would be more beneficial for them not to let the prince explain now, but to let the prince show all his panic and confusion in front of everyone.

Anyway, what happened to the prince today will be reported to the emperor's ears, so he can shirk responsibility by the way.

Besides, the prince just acted so sarcastically yesterday as if he was deliberately trying to embarrass himself and was unwilling to accept the invitation.

If she helped the prince again today, she would be so full that she would rush to show the prince's cold face.

But speaking of it, the prince is just like his dog father, he is a very thick-skinned person.

When she doesn't need her, she really doesn't even want to give her the most basic titles and respects. When she needs her, she calls her "Auntie Huang" affectionately.

If she could be convinced just like that, then she would be really out of her mind.

Thinking of this, the eldest princess rolled her eyes at the prince again, showing her disdain on her face.

"Everyone, just go with me. The surprise I have prepared is already in place."

The eldest princess has already said this, so naturally it's hard for everyone to say anything more.

It's just that the look he looked at the prince couldn't be said to be very good.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the scrutiny was filled with disgust.

The prince had no choice but to open his mouth to explain, but couldn't make a sound. He could only fall at the end of the team in frustration.

The eldest princess took them all the way to the other side of the garden.

"Here is the surprise I have prepared for you."

here?

Everyone looked around and saw that there were only flowers, trees, and fruits to eat, and there were no surprises at all.

There was no other way, they didn't dare to ask the eldest princess directly, they could only cast doubtful glances.

The eldest princess naturally saw everyone's thoughts, but she didn't say anything and just clapped her hands.

"Crack! Crack—"

After two palms, a woman holding a musical instrument emerged from the flowers and plants, playing music and dancing at the same time.

Not only do they have good looks and every move is charming, but they also play musical instruments extremely well.

It's just like listening to fairy music and having temporary clarity.

"This is the surprise I have prepared for you, please enjoy it."

These song and dance performances were not surprising to the people present who were accustomed to all kinds of banquets, but what the eldest princess said did not make them object.

Especially those princes, each one looked straight at them, all their eyes fell on the singing girls, and some desires arose in their hearts.

But there was one exception, and that was the prince.

He had no time to enjoy these encouraging performances now. His mind was occupied with how to solve the current problem.

"Ding--"

As the last note fell, the singers gathered around one after another. Tuliu Qiuxue stood in front of everyone and used her body to draw a perfect arc for the music.

The prince suddenly raised his head and met Qiu Xue's charming eyes.

His heart skipped a beat, but then he smiled self-deprecatingly, picked up the wine glass on the side, and sat down to drink.

None of his actions escaped the eldest princess's sight, and they were all under her control.

"These singers are carefully selected by me. They will be here to accompany everyone to enjoy themselves later. If anyone wants to see them perform a song, just feel free to summon them."

"I'm going to check on Qing Ge first, and I won't stay here for long."

The eldest princess has already made her words very clear, and all she needs to do is tell these princes directly that the singers here can be taken away at will.

But that being said, after she left, the princes were still very reserved and did not approach these singing girls.

It’s not for anything else, but they want to leave a reputation for being clean and self-sufficient.

But this was part of their plan, and the singers were well aware of the tasks they shouldered, so they joined the princes without hesitation.

What they have to do is to win the favor of these princes within the time period given by the eldest princess, and then successfully enter each prince's mansion.

Qiu Xue's goal is the prince.

She took a clear look at the prince who was drinking. She hugged her pipa and walked towards the prince's side.

It's just that this move has a little bit of her personal characteristics.

Because her hands were gently playing with the strings, but her eyes were looking at the prince passionately.

The sound of the piano came from far to near, which attracted the prince. Rarely, he raised his head, and as expected, he burst into Qiu Xue's eyes.

She stood a few steps away from the prince, bent down and bowed.

"Your Highness, the little lady saw that you seemed to be worried, so she played a song for you, hoping to relieve your worries."

The words she said so tactfully and charmingly were like a clear spring in March or a breeze in April that instantly soothed the prince's irritability.

The prince fell in love with her when he saw her for the first time.

"What's your name?"

"The little girl's name is Qiu Xue."

Although Qiu Xue was replying, she did not take another half step forward and kept the distance between herself and the prince just right.

This actually made the prince interested.

In the past, when those singers saw him, they wanted to rush towards him. It was rare to find a wonderful person like Qiu Xue with such personality.

"You come to my side and pour wine for me."

After listening to his words, Qiu Xue did come closer, but grabbed his wine glass and threw it straight to the ground.

"Snapped--"

The glass fell apart the moment it hit the ground.

Qiu Xue's words of complaint also followed.

"How can Your Highness not care about your body so much? Drinking alcohol will harm your body. Even if Your Highness has something on your mind, you can't harm your body."

As she spoke, tears rolled down her face, looking pitiful and a little aggrieved.

These words made the prince feel warm in his heart.

It's been a long time since he heard someone care about him so sincerely.

The beauty shed tears because she was worried about her body, which made him feel the throb in his heart that he couldn't bear no matter what.

He took Qiu Xue into his arms with just one move of his hands.

"Qiu Xue, it's my fault. I drank a few more drinks because I was upset. Don't worry about me."

"It's the little girl who is worried. Please don't blame Your Highness." Qiu Xue said this, but she turned her body away, completely facing away from the prince, making it clear that she was still angry.

It was a wonderful feeling for the prince to be cared for and blamed like this. Especially after seeing Qiu Xue bursting into tears for him, he wanted to hold Qiu Xue tightly.

He thought so, and even more so, he did so.

After he deliberately tightened his embrace, he leaned into Qiu Xue's ear and spoke ambiguously and kindly.

"Qiu Xue, how can I blame you? But I see that you play the pipa very well. I wonder if you can play another song for me."

Qiu Xue felt a little uncomfortable, but when she thought about her mission, she still suppressed the nausea in her heart and maintained her slightly angry look.

"Don't you, Your Highness, like drinking to relieve your boredom? Then why bother listening to the little girl playing the pipa?"

"Your Highness doesn't want your own body anymore, so that little girl will stay with His Highness."

After saying that, she struggled to pick up the other wine glass in front of her, poured a full glass of wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Her actions were so smooth that the prince was stunned to see her.

"Qiuxue, you..."

What responded to him was Qiu Xue wiping the wine from the corner of her lips.

"The young lady is drinking with His Highness. After that, His Highness will have a drink, and the young lady will have a drink."

Qiuxue's face was delicate and bright, and every move showed her charm, but her movements at this moment were bold and free. This contrast fascinated the prince.

"Then why don't Qiu Xue play a game with me?"

"Your Highness, it's okay to say."

"If you dance or play a song, I will drink one less glass of wine. We will count from ten drinks, but it is only for the time of this stick of incense."

This is the prince's way of testing Qiu Xue, and it is also the foundation he has specially laid before their relationship takes a further step.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Xue agreed immediately.

"Okay, the little lady also has a request."

"As long as the little girl does it, His Highness will never break his promise."
