The whole family is obsessed with love? The princess woke them up one after another.

The crown prince did not fly into a rage; he simply watched Qi Zhiyu quietly.

After Qi Zhiyu finished speaking, she looked back at him with a smile in her eyes, her gaze showing no emotional fluctuation.

The Crown Prince wanted to see Qi Zhiyu's smugness or provocation, but unfortunately... nothing happened.

The crown prince smiled, a smirk playing on his lips, but his eyes were icy cold: "Does the princess intend to destroy my Northern Yunnan?"

The Crown Prince knew that the person in front of him was definitely not the Princess Ning of their Northern Yunnan, but a princess of Da Rui.

They came from Da Rui and wanted to devour the princess of their Northern Dian!

Qi Zhiyu laughed: "What are you saying, Crown Prince?"

"I've formed a pact with Jiang Tinghao, so naturally I have to think about things for him."

The Crown Prince's face darkened: "Princess, let's not beat around the bush!"

"Would you really seize the throne and give it to Prince Ning?"

He didn't believe a single word!

"Of course it's true." Qi Zhiyu smiled. "As for the future, I will make better arrangements for him."

The Crown Prince's eyes turned cold: "Princess, do you know what you're saying?"

"Your Highness, please rest assured, the contract will also be useful to me," Qi Zhiyu said with a light laugh.

"I'm definitely doing this for his own good."

The Crown Prince's face was full of mockery: "Princess, do you think I would believe that?"

Qi Zhiyu was very puzzled: "Your Highness, what does it matter to me whether you believe it or not?"

"Isn't it enough that Jiang Tinghao believes it?"

"He's the one I've formed a bond with, not you."

"Moreover, a covenant witnessed by the heavens is the most just."

The Crown Prince narrowed his eyes dangerously: "Princess, is it necessary for you to say such polite things to me?"

"The intricacies of the matter... the princess knows them, and I understand them all too."

Exploiting loopholes isn't something only Qi Zhiyu knows how to do!

"Your Highness," Qi Zhiyu admired the prince quite a bit, "if you have something you want to protect, you must protect it as firmly as an iron fortress."

"Don't let it have any flaws or oversights around it."

The Crown Prince understood what Qi Zhiyu was talking about.

Jiang Tinghao is that flaw, that oversight.

However, the crown prince was not convinced.

"Can the princess guarantee that Da Rui will not have any oversights?"

Even tigers sometimes doze off, let alone humans.

Qi Zhiyu readily admitted, "I never said that our Da Rui had no flaws."

The eldest one is still a favorite of Heaven. What did she say?

The crown prince snorted, feeling a sense of satisfaction at having won back a point.

When Qi Zhiyu spoke, she sounded so condescending. Who was she trying to belittle?

Even Da Rui couldn't do it.

Don't think that Da Rui is superior to them in Bei Dian.

"But Da Rui has me." Qi Zhiyu smiled brightly at the Crown Prince. "No matter what mistakes or flaws Da Rui makes, I can resolve them."

Qi Zhiyu snapped her fingers and asked lightly, "I can cover it, but can you, Your Highness?"

Crown Prince: "..."

My chest hurts so much!

Qi Zhiyu's stab was really too vicious!

Qi Zhiyu looked at the Crown Prince, whose face kept changing color from green to white, smiled slightly, picked up the fruit next to her, and slowly began to eat.

The prince isn't very good at handling pressure.

After Qi Zhiyu took a few bites, the Crown Prince finally loosened his tightly clenched fist.

He spoke, his voice slightly hoarse: "Princess, did you plan all this in advance?"

"Is it all for our sake in Northern Yunnan?"

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly: "Guess why our soldiers of Da Rui have been searching for so long without finding any rare and precious treasures?"

"By sheer coincidence, when Jiang Tinghao's men went to retrieve it, they accidentally discovered it underwater?"

Even though the Crown Prince had anticipated this and made preparations, he still felt distressed when he heard Qi Zhiyu admit it herself.

"So, the news that the Da Rui soldiers failed to salvage the item was also spread by the princess." The crown prince asked this question with absolute certainty.

Qi Zhiyu smiled slightly at the Crown Prince: "That's right."

"We need to let you people of Northern Yunnan know that our soldiers from Da Rui tried their best but failed. That way, when they go to look again and succeed, they will cherish it all the more."

"They might even feel that this is a blessing from heaven for northern Yunnan!"

The crown prince stared intently at Qi Zhiyu. Qi Zhiyu's smile remained unchanged, but he felt a sting in his face.

Were all those people who went to Da Rui from northern Yunnan useless?

With so many people, not a single one noticed anything was wrong?

After they arrived in Da Rui, did their brains get completely emptied by dogs?

Do not!

wrong!

The Crown Prince's gaze fell on Qi Zhiyu's face. Her relaxed posture made his heart tighten, and an inexplicable fear welled up from the bottom of his heart, instantly making him feel cold all over.

It's not that the people of Beidian are stupid, but that Qi Zhiyu and her group are putting on a show too convincingly!

"The princess has quite a few capable people around her." The crown prince felt his throat was dry, and every word he spoke felt like a knife cutting through his throat.

"Indeed." Qi Zhiyu's smile deepened, and it was clear that she was genuinely happy when she talked about these things.

She was even proud.

Her family is really capable.

She proposed the plan, and they carried it out.

It was executed perfectly; every little detail was done so realistically.

No wonder they're her family!

That's awesome!

I suddenly miss them.

Sigh... eight months.

Oh, it's not eight months anymore.

Qi Zhiyu's low spirits lifted again; she was almost home.

She was in a good mood, but the Crown Prince was not so happy.

"That rare and precious material came from... the Princess's hands?" The Crown Prince had thought of the answer, but he still wanted to verify it.

For the first time, he even hoped that all his guesses were wrong.

He'd rather he'd overthink it, or that he was stupid and hadn't guessed the answer.

Qi Zhiyu gave him a thumbs up: "You got it right!"

The crown prince felt a jolt in his heart, as if he had been struck hard by a heavy hammer, and the pain made his vision go black.

He knew the future was bleak, but he still clung to a sliver of hope: "A rare and precious treasure... Did the princess tamper with that jade pendant?"

The crown prince directly revealed the so-called rare and precious materials.

After he asked the question, he noticed that Qi Zhiyu looked blank and seemed not to understand it.

Qi Zhiyu's reaction opened a crack of hope in the Crown Prince's despairing heart.

Unfortunately, Qi Zhiyu didn't give him a chance to be happy.

She really couldn't understand.

"Your Highness, why would you ask such a question?"

Qi Zhiyu looked at the Crown Prince with suspicion: "With your abilities, you shouldn't be asking such a pointless question."

"If I hadn't tampered with it, why would I have made it look like a jade pendant?"

"This is clearly meant for people to wear."

"Your Northern Yunnan region has obtained such rare and precious natural treasures; if not for your king to wear, then for whom?"

"If it weren't for the fact that your king would carry it with him, why would I go through all this trouble to make the jade pendant?"

The prince swayed, gritting his teeth, "What did you do to the jade pendant?"
