She said, "Your Highness has already knelt in front of the Emperor's Longsong Palace for three days and three nights. With such cold weather, he will definitely kneel down and cause problems! "Miss, if you have the ability to walk away, you can go and persuade him …"

I was shocked. "Why did Qing Ling do this?"

Xiao Lian: "It seems that His Majesty is blaming us because His Highness insisted on requesting the Emperor to re-select the crown prince … His request was impeached by the Minister of Imperial Household because it went against the royal family's ancestor. What His Highness did was an outrageous act … "

My heart tightened... The crown prince of Qingling was a good man, why did he ask the emperor to re-select him? Right now, there were only two princes that could inherit the throne: one was him, and the other was Mu Yu. Could it be that he wanted to give the crown to Mu Yu?

Even though I am a country bumpkin, I know that the title of crown prince concerns the nation's constitution and only the princes fight for it. I've never heard of anyone pushing the throne out. Why is Qing Ling doing this?

I asked Xiao Lian, "You have been by the crown prince's side for quite some time. Do you know the reason why the crown prince is doing this?"

Xiao Lian suddenly cried as she knelt down, "Miss Bai, your highness is doing this for you! His Royal Highness said that the Young Miss' illness could only be cured by the Chao Tian Zhu, and that's why he asked the Emperor to bestow the Chao Tian Zhu upon him. The Emperor refused, and so he begged the Emperor to re-select the crown prince! "

"Ah?" "That re-selection, what does it have to do with the Chao Heavenly Jewel …"

Xiao Lian: "We have an ancestor system in Tianyu Dynasty, and that is that you can't have Tianxiong Zhu if you don't have a real son. When His Highness the Crown Prince was returning to the palace, the Emperor had bestowed upon him the Chao Tianxiong Pearl so that he could carry it with him to determine if it possesses the orders of the Son of Heaven. The Crown Prince had obviously successfully passed the test, and the Chao Tianxiong Pearl had also been taken back by the Emperor, but now, in order to obtain the Chao Tianxiong Pearl, Your Highness has thought of such a method! "

Little Lian looked at me. "Miss, isn't the First Prince very nice to you? I heard you were his concubine? "

I was speechless. "This is a rumor …"

Xiao Lian did not allow me to explain, "Our majesty must be thinking that as long as he requests the Emperor to select a new crown prince, then both princes will have the chance to obtain the Chao Heavenly Jewel. No matter if it's him or the First Prince, anyone who obtains the Chao Heavenly Jewel will be able to save you, so …"

I heard a bang in my head here... 'Qing Ling came up with such a rotten idea. He risked losing the Crown Prince position because of me? '

I stood up abruptly. "No, I have to stop him!" If he were to do so, it would infuriate His Majesty! "

However, Xiao Lian pulled me back, "No, Miss! It will be bad if you go like this! The emperor has always been brooding over you. His Highness had once instructed me to never appear in front of the emperor and the princess again, so I … "I really spoke too much just now …"

I replied, "Then wouldn't it be fine if I didn't let the Emperor see me?"

In the end, Xiao Lian was still more concerned about her master. She was slightly stunned for a moment before she released her hand.

I used my memory to get to the outside of the Longsong Palace, it was raining heavily, the autumn wind was sad. It had already rained for the third day, and Qing Ling was kneeling in front of the palace.

The gate of the palace was not closed, but no one came to look after him. The torrential downpour had long since drenched him to the brim.

I was about to go up to persuade him, when suddenly a eunuch came out of the palace. He seemed to be the emperor's attendants, Eunuch Chen.

The eunuch held onto an umbrella as he stood next to Qing Ling and whispered, "Your Highness, the Emperor has matters to attend to right now and can't come out to see you. This old servant advises you. You should go back and rest early …"

Qing Ling smiled lightly. "Many thanks to Eunuch Chen for your concern." "Please tell the emperor that I will be kneeling here. I only hope that he can reconsider the choice of the crown prince!"

Eunuch Chen sighed. "Why must Your Highness suffer …"

Qing Ling remained motionless.

Eunuch Chen had exhorted him over and over again. When he saw that Qing Ling would not change his mind no matter what, he could only pass the paper umbrella in his hand to Qing Ling. "Your Highness, hold onto this umbrella and protect it from the cold …"

Ling Yun tactfully declined: "If I were to use an umbrella, how would I show my sincerity towards royal father? This prince appreciates your kindness, Eunuch Chen. Please go back. "

Eunuch Chen had no choice but to bring people back to the Longsong Palace.

After a while, the doors to the Everlasting Palace closed with a creak … It seemed that the Emperor had steeled his heart to ignore Qing Ling!

I hid under the tree. The cold was everywhere, and my body and heart were both trembling a little.

Qing Ling was still kneeling straight in the rain. His navy blue imperial robes were already soaked through, and his face was a bit pale.

Finally, I couldn't take it anymore and rushed forward to hug him. "Qing Ling …"

Qing Ling was stunned. "Ah Wu, why are you here?"

I shook my head. "Qing Ling, why did you do this? "Hurry up and go back. If you continue like this, you'll get sick!"

However, Qing Ling shook his head. "It's alright, although royal father is indifferent on the surface, I am still his biological son. He definitely won't abandon me." "Wu, go back quickly, it's too cold here!"

My tears fell.

Qing Ling knelt in the rain for three days and three nights. Finally, the Emperor was moved and gave him the Heavenly Jewels to treat my illness.

"I heard that the Emperor was extremely angry when he bestowed the treasure. He scolded Qing Ling for being 'merciful of women', 'difficult to achieve great things', and even scolded for some inexplicable words …" "A beauty's calamity."

Fortunately, the Emperor did not accept the proposal to re-select the crown prince. When I received the news, I heaved a sigh of relief … I was really afraid that the Emperor would get angry and cripple Qing Ling's position as crown prince! If that were the case, then I would really become the 'beauty disaster' that the Emperor spoke of.

I know that Qing Ling has ambitions as well. After these few months of close interaction, I have also seen his sincere enthusiasm for serving the country and its people … Since Qingling had joined the imperial court, he had corrected many of the emperor's previous incorrect practices. He had even asked the emperor to reduce taxes and allow the commoners to rest … Of course, these suggestions can be accepted very rarely, but I believe that if Qingling really ascends to the throne, his ambitions will be realized, and he will become a kind and magnanimous emperor in the future.

If he were to lose his position as Crown Prince due to me, wouldn't that mean that the Empire had lost a new Lord? Then wouldn't I become the bane of all those beauties? If that's the case, then what's the difference between me and those famous seniors of our clan, like Su Daji?

Thus, when I learned that the Emperor had only scolded Qing Ling once, but had not truly re-elected the crown prince, I was overjoyed.

However, Qing Ling smiled as she looked at me. "Ah Cai, you don't have to blame yourself too much. If you were to re-select the crown prince, there wouldn't be anything bad about it." "Although I don't like Mi Yu, he has also participated in the imperial government for the past few months and many of his ideas are quite similar to mine. Sometimes, I think that if Eldest Brother was the crown prince, maybe Tianyu Empire would have a good development too!"

I was a little dumbfounded by this... Was this what a king meant? Was this the so-called heroic bearing? "So dazzling!"

But, I can't do it. If I hate a person, I hate all of them, so how can I appreciate his abilities and ambitions?

Of course, I don't hate the Last Feathers. I would only be happy if the two of them could get along peacefully.

Now, both males and females are placed on the headboard of my bed.

Qing Ling said that the Chao Tian Pearl contains a lot of spirit energy, when I meditate, I can use this spirit energy to repair my damaged foundation, and when my foundation is almost recovered, I can use the powder from the Chao Tian Pearl to add in medicine, and with the help of the Evergreen Sect's secret recipe, it will help me recover and heal the wounds left behind by the blood in my heart.

I do not understand this profound medical knowledge, but ever since I had the Chao Tian Zhu bead, my body had become much better; it gave me a great deal of encouragement, so I worked hard to cultivate every day. But today, after eating, I sat down on the collapsed chair again, entering into a meditative state …
