After making up his mind, Yichen walked to the bedroom where Wen Shaoxue lived. It seemed that the prince was really attentive this time. Even if Miss Wen did this, the prince was still unwilling to wrong her.
"Miss Wen, excuse me." Yichen nodded slightly.
Wen Shaoxue shook his head: "Normally speaking, shouldn't you come here to ask questions at this time? Why do I feel like I have been invited to the palace as a guest by you now?"
"It's actually right to think so. The reason why we will bring you back is just because we don't want you to be in danger. It's all out of concern for you, so you don't have to worry too much."
Wen Shaoxue hesitated for a moment, then asked: "Well... Prince Huai, is he... okay?"
Yichen tilted his head: "Are you worried about him?"
"Since I was a child, I have never done anything harmful. This is the only time... Although I don't regret what I have done, I still want to say sorry to him." Wen Shaoxue lowered his head.
Yichen sat down on the stool opposite her and spoke slowly: "This is probably not what the prince wants to hear."
Wen Shaoxue remained silent, just staring down at the embroidery on his clothes in a daze.
"Actually, the prince has always wanted to tell you his true identity, and he has also always wanted to change your opinion of him. Maybe the time is too short, or maybe the timing of your encounter is wrong."
Wen Shaoxue looked at Yichen, suddenly thought of something, and smiled: "He actually never had a sister, right? The one he described to me before was you, right? The rouge he bought from me was also
Picked for you?"
Yichen's face turned dark: "I don't want to talk about this issue."
It was rare for Wen Shaoxue to see him show his youthful behavior, so she couldn't help but want to tease him: "I have been wronging you to be my coachman all this time. You must be resenting me in your heart."
Yichen snorted softly: "If you want to blame the prince, you should blame the prince, but to be honest, this period of time is rarely easy for me. The prince has actually not lived a good life for so many years. Of course, he has had no food and clothing since he was a child.
Worry, there is no shortage of people around to help him. He has been very smart since he was a child and can learn everything quickly. But his life is still not good."
"Why? He has no worries about food and clothing and is surrounded by stars. In addition, his conditions are so good, so his childhood should be carefree."
"The old prince and the princess were very affectionate, and they only had one child. But the birth of the prince was actually an accident. The princess was neither a lady nor a merchant's daughter. She soon got tired of the life in the palace and always wanted to leave."
Yichen sighed: "In the end, they did leave, leaving the young prince to be raised by his confidants at home, and the two of them went traveling around the mountains and rivers."
"When he was a child, the prince always clamored to find them. Even now, he still thinks about it, but he doesn't say it anymore. When he was ten years old, the old housekeeper who took care of him also fell ill and passed away. He has always been a
people."
Wen Shaoxue stared at the soft light of the lamp wick: "If that's the case, why did he have to come to the capital to fight for the throne? Isn't the position of the emperor more lonely than anyone else?"
Yichen waved his hands helplessly: "Who knows, maybe he just needs a goal, a goal to support him going forward. This goal has been with him since childhood and has become a part of his life."
"What about you? Aren't you always with him?" Wen Shaoxue was puzzled. Since Yichen knew Prince Huai so well, they must have known each other for a long time.
"Me? I'm just a subordinate. What I can do is very limited. And we haven't known each other for a long time, probably only three years." Yichen recalled.
To be honest, Wen Shaoxue was a little surprised when she heard this. After all, Yichen seemed to know King Huai very well, and King Huai also trusted him.
"I used to be unpopular with my master and senior brothers in my sect. Once I had an accident when I went out to do something. I almost couldn't go back, and then I met Prince Huai."
"After the prince personally sent me back, the attitude of my master and senior brother suddenly changed 180 degrees. A normal person would know why after thinking about it, but the prince insisted on saying that it was because my master wanted to train me.
Do you think it’s funny?”
Wen Shaoxue opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to answer this sentence. Perhaps it was because Prince Huai had not had the care of his relatives since he was a child. When he saw a young man who had experienced something similar to his own, he couldn't help but think about what he didn't have.
Make amends with him.
"I basically heard about the prince later from my master and others, and some were told to me by the old people in the prince's palace. They asked me to take good care of the prince." Yichen looked at a certain point in the air.
"Actually, I am also very happy that the prince can meet you. Although he has not changed what he insists on because of this, I can see that he is working very hard to change himself. This is the first time that he has put aside his identity as a prince and became a person.
You should face the woman you like the way ordinary people do." Yichen's tone was full of regret.
Maybe if we change the time and change the protagonist, this will be a happy love story that will be passed down from generation to generation and will be remembered for eternity. Unfortunately, it happened right before our eyes, between these two people.
If Wen Shaoxue was a vain woman, or if she had evil thoughts, Yichen might just deal with her quietly.
But he had seen with his own eyes Wen Shaoxue giving clothes to beggars on the roadside, buying meat buns for homeless children, and she could also treat customers who came to find trouble with her calmly.
She stood opposite King Huai just because she didn't want to betray her benefactor, not to mention that she was the person that King Huai liked. After all, they had been together for so long, and Wen Shaoxue could be considered to take good care of him. Now she really wanted to
It's really hard to say what his success rate is.
Not to mention whether he can do it himself, even if he succeeds, the prince will not be able to pass the test.
It's rare for him to finally come out of one person's world and be willing to accept other people, and even hesitate to question what he has always insisted on because of this person.
If he had met her earlier, would the prince have given up his plan to come to the capital?
"Do you know? The prince did hesitate, and the time for the ceremony was pushed back again and again. But Miss Wen, you have to know that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired. It has reached this point. If the prince really gives up and withdraws voluntarily, wait
What he wanted was not to escape alive, but to die without a burial place."
Wen Shaoxue's face turned pale. After all, she was just an ordinary person. Her father and brother had been very kind to her since she was a child, and she had never really experienced the kind of life-and-death struggle between the royal family.
"Really, is there no other choice..." Wen Shaoxue's voice was muffled.
