My father, Li Shimin, requests Your Majesty to become the Retired Emperor.

Qin Ying kowtowed again: "Grandpa Luo, I won't get up. You have to talk to the Crown Princess first. Only if she can take me away can I get up. Otherwise, I'll kowtow here until I die."

Actually, Luo Cheng quite liked Qin Ying; he thought the child was lively and lovable.

Luo Cheng naturally knew that Qin Ying had nothing but praise for Li Chenggan.

Although Qin Qiong opposed Qin Ying's association with Li Chenggan

However, Qin Ying insisted on following Li Chengan.

Luo Cheng spurred his horse and rode up to Su Wan: "Miss Su, I see that Qin Ying is utterly loyal to the Crown Prince."

We've also heard that he was the one who escorted the Crown Prince on his escape last time.

But halfway there, the crown prince forced him to turn back.

To be honest, Qin Ying can't be blamed for this.

Now, the Crown Prince is heading to the Western Regions alone, facing a perilous situation, and he is short of manpower.

Qin Ying is highly skilled in martial arts and extremely loyal; he should be of use. Let him come with us.

Su Wan also wanted to keep Qin Ying: "Duke Yue, it's not that I want to drive him away,"

His grandfather made it clear that he didn't want him to have anything to do with us.

To avoid being implicated in the future.

His grandfather's thinking wasn't without reason.

So, this is a difficult situation for me.

As you said, this journey to the Western Regions is extremely dangerous.

"If something were to happen to Qin Ying on the road, who could bear the responsibility?"

Qin Ying crawled forward two steps on her knees: "Crown Princess, you don't need to preach those grand principles to me."

All I know is that I must stay with the Crown Prince, otherwise, I will not survive.

At this moment, Qin Ying pulled a dagger from her calf and pointed it at her neck: "Let me tell you, you have to bring me with you today, whether you want to or not, otherwise, I will die right here in front of you."

Su Wan looked at it and said irritably, "Qin Ying, I didn't expect you to have been with the Crown Prince for so long."

You didn't learn any of the advantages of being the crown prince, but you did learn this trick.

Luo Cheng glared at her: "Qin Ying, what are you doing? Don't do anything reckless, put the dagger down right now."

"I won't let go. You promise to take me with you, and I'll put down the dagger immediately. Otherwise, you can just wait to collect my corpse." Qin Ying was truly ruthless. As she spoke, she moved the knife forward another half inch, pressing it tightly against his neck.

With just a little more force, the dagger pierced through.

Su Wan realized that this young man was a hothead. If he said it, he would do it. If he drove Qin Ying to her death, she would be guilty of a terrible crime.

"Qin Ying, don't be impulsive, we can take you away."

But what if your grandfather blames you in the future?

My grandfather is old and senile; he can no longer distinguish between good and bad people.

He only cares about our Qin family, unlike the Crown Prince who has the people of the world in his heart.

I believe the Crown Prince is a good person. As long as I follow him, even if I die in battle, it will be worth it." Qin Ying became more and more excited as she spoke.

Luo Cheng nodded: "Qin Qiong is my cousin, and our relationship is no different from that of blood brothers."

I wouldn't dare say I completely represent Qin Qiong, but I can at least represent a large part of him.

I'm in charge of this matter. Even if something happens to Qin Ying,

My cousin can't blame you either; it was all Qin Ying's own choice.

Seeing that Luo Cheng had already said that, Su Wan had nothing more to say.

In fact, Su Wan also hoped that Li Chengan could have such an assistant.

Qin Ying's martial arts skills were quite good. Although he was a bit inferior to those top masters, he was more than capable of dealing with ordinary people.

Thinking of this, Su Wan said loudly, "Qin Ying, then get up and quickly join the ranks."

"Thank you, Crown Princess!"

Qin Ying put away the dagger and kowtowed three times on the ground.

To everyone's surprise, Su Wan's face darkened: "Why are you thanking me? If you want to thank someone, why don't you thank the Duke of Yue?"

Qin Ying turned around again to face Luo Cheng and kowtowed three times, "Thank you, Grandpa Luo!"
