Chapter 489 No Looking Back
Baozhu saw a sneer on Qin Zhao's lips, and didn't understand why Liang Di's expression changed in an instant. Who provoked Liang Di?
"Does Liangdi feel cold?" she asked cautiously.
Qin Zhao came back to her senses. She looked at Baozhu and her expression returned to normal: "It's a bit cold. Let's go back to Yueju."
Baozhu should be accompanying Qin Zhao back to Wangyue Residence.
While serving Qin Zhao to sleep, Baozhu said softly: "Liang Di, there is no need to worry. No matter how cunning Nian Su is, His Highness the Crown Prince also has the ability to make judgments."
She thought that Liang Di was worried that His Highness the Crown Prince would be deceived by Nian Su, so she had a bad expression and wanted to appease her master.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is just an ordinary person, and there is a high probability that he cannot withstand the temptation." Qin Zhao sighed lightly: "Sometimes you still have to find a way on your own."
Wu Xirou is a lucky person. Before the formal audition for the crown princess, she has Nian Su, a capable assistant, helping her.
Nian Su must have been busy during this period. She found out clearly about Wu Xirou's origins and also found out that she had an affair with Wu Xirou when she was at her parents' home.
"Liang Di is so smart, no matter how bad Nian Su is, she cannot be Liang Di's opponent." Baozhu made no secret of his admiration for Qin Zhao.
Qin Zhao felt that Baozhu's words touched her heart.
It was true as Baozhu said, no matter what methods Nian Su used, she never took Nian Su seriously. It was not that she looked down on Nian Su, but she knew that Nian Su's most effective way to deal with her was to sow discord.
Nian Su also used this trick just now, but she is no longer Qin Zhao in her previous life, how can she be easily provoked by Nian Su again?
When Xiao Ce returned to Wangyueju, it was not yet midnight.
Qin Zhao was sitting on the couch reading a storybook. When she saw him coming back, she said angrily: "What on earth did Your Highness tell Nian Su about taking so long?"
Xiao Ce thought of what Nian Su said and thought it was okay not to mention it.
Nian Su was certain that Wu Xirou would be the future crown princess, which made Qin Zhao know that he would not be happy.
"She said she knew some secrets that others didn't know." Xiao Ce didn't want to lie to Qin Zhao, so he answered ambiguously.
Qin Zhao couldn't help but smile when he heard what he said: "I also know some secrets that others don't know. Do you want to hear it, Your Highness?"
This aroused Xiao Ce's curiosity, "What secret do you know?"
"I knew that your highness's crown princess was supposed to be Wu Xiyu, but because I accidentally went to Guangyu Orchid Garden, I ruined the good things of Wu Xiyu and Wu Guifei. In this way, I actually changed Wu Xiyu's fate.
Wu Xiyu, who was supposed to be the Crown Princess, finally took the next step and became a Liang Yuan. Therefore, it is said that the world is a fantasy, and an inadvertent turn changed the fate of everyone, including the concubine herself. In fact, the concubine should not have appeared in the first place.
That's over there..." Qin Zhao said, his words faded away.
Xiao Ce listened intently and wanted to refute Qin Zhao's words, but thinking of what happened in Guangyulan, he suddenly felt that what this girl said was very logical.
"Even I feel that the woman who appeared in Xiao Yuan that night should not be me, but Wu Xiyu. If so, the marriage between Your Highness and Wu Xiyu may have been sealed that night." Qin Zhao sighed again.
Xiao Ce frowned: "What stupid thing did you say?"
He couldn't imagine Wu Xiyu being the princess.
"That's right. Your Highness, do you still remember the butterfly effect I said? Just a small detail change will change all the subsequent plot developments, which may include marriage and fate. Of course, I think
A person's destiny is all in his own hands, how can it be decided by others with just a few words?" Qin Zhao finally got to the point and yawned.
She just wanted Xiao Ce to know that predicting anything or not was secondary, and her destiny was in her own hands.
I think she was a cannon fodder who died early, but isn't she still alive and well now?
"Just rest when you're sleepy. I'll stay with you." Xiao Ce helped Qin Zhao tuck in the quilt and said with gentle eyes.
Qin Zhao nodded, and she quickly pressed a kiss on Xiao Ce's forehead: "I had a great time today. Thank you, Your Highness, for spending a meaningful birthday with me."
Under Xiao Ce's gaze, she quickly fell asleep.
Xiao Ce looked at her peaceful sleeping face in a daze. She didn't know if it was his illusion, but she always felt that every word she just said was in response to Nian Su's prophecy.
But he felt that this was impossible because Qin Zhao was not present at the time and it was impossible for Qin Zhao to hear the conversation between him and Nian Su.
Maybe it was just because he was suspected of being seriously ill that he associated Qin Zhao's words with Nian Su.
However, what Qin Zhao said was reasonable. He felt that it was possible for Wu Xiyu to become his crown princess. If Qin Zhao had not appeared in front of him at the critical moment, he might have married Wu Xiyu.
If it was said that Wu Xirou would become his crown princess, he felt that the possibility was very slim, so he would just listen to Nian Su's words, he would not take it seriously.
Nian Su stood motionless outside the East Palace, looking a little crazy.
His Highness the Crown Prince finally returned to Qin Zhao before Zi Shi. She tried her best but got nothing. His Highness the Crown Prince did not even believe her prediction.
But she thought that Wu Xirou still had a good chance of becoming the Crown Princess of His Royal Highness. Wu Xirou had scheming, means, and talent, and she also had the support of Concubine Wu.
As long as Wu Xirou becomes the crown princess, no matter how scheming Qin Zhao is, Qin Zhao cannot be a match for Wu Xirou, the head wife.
She only hoped that His Highness the Crown Prince would believe her prophecy and choose Wu Xirou when choosing a concubine. Qin Zhao's good days in the East Palace would be over.
That night, Niansu couldn't sleep, but Qin Zhao had a good sleep.
On the morning of the third day of the lunar month, Zhuang's family sent a letter to the palace, and Zhuang Qing's marriage was decided.
After hearing the news, Qin Zhao couldn't recover for a while.
Therefore, she still could not change Zhuang Qing's decision. Zhuang Qing still chose the man she liked to marry. Even though she knew that Fan Yuan was pretending to be Wu Xirou, she still persisted in her decision.
So what do Fan Yuan think?
Is it because he knew that Wu Xirou would participate in the selection of the crown prince's concubine, so he decided to marry Zhuang Qing in order to take revenge on Wu Xirou; or because Fan Yuan could not marry the woman he loved, and felt that no matter which woman he married, it would be the same?
No matter which reason made Fan Yuan decide to marry, Zhuang Qing was the most unjust one.
However, Zhuang Qing is stupid and stubborn. She knows that Fan Yuan has someone in her heart, but she still decides to marry Fan Yuan without hesitation.
In the end, she was unable to change Zhuang Qing's fate of marrying Fan Yuan. Whether Zhuang Qing would be happy after getting married was beyond her control.
Xiao Ce learned about Zhuang Qing's upcoming marriage after going to court. He was worried that Qin Zhao would be unhappy, so he went straight to Wangyue Residence after going to court.
When he came over, Qin Zhao was running in the corridor. When she saw him coming, she waved to him: "Good morning, Your Highness!"
