Chapter 186



“The Crown Prince is furious. His Royal Highness does not want me to serve him anymore,” Eunuch Lishi replied, while keeping his head down.

“Miss Cha Ying is with Her Majesty. Her Majesty wants to see the Crown Prince,” Eunuch Lianying said, looking towards the door. He asked the maidservants to open it who refused while conveying the order of the Crown Prince.

“Eunuch Lishi, go in and deliver this message to the Crown Prince,” Eunuch Lianying instructed him. He refused because Xiaoming would throw him out of the palace if he listened to Eunuch Lianying.

Eunuch Lianying didn’t want the queen to keep waiting, so he looked at the two maidservants. “Get aside. I will converse with the Crown Prince. I am from the Queen’s Manor, and you two should follow my command.”

The female servants were stuck. Earlier, the maidservant had told them not to open the door and let anyone in because her life would be in danger. However, they couldn’t stop someone from the Queen’s manor. They both looked at each other and then lifted their hands to open the sliding door.

Eunuch Lianying stepped forward to go in when Eunuch Lishi stopped him.

“Your Royal Highness’s temper is in heaven’s sky. I request Eunuch Lianying not to break the order that the Crown Prince has given.” Eunuch Lishi didn’t want Eunuch Lianying to see Liu Jin Yu in Xiaoming’s bedchamber.

“But Her Majesty will also get angry upon not seeing the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince doesn’t hold any power in the inner palace, so he must comply with the command of the Queen,” Eunuch Lianying argued.

.....

“I am coming.” They both heard Xiaoming’s voice and turned to look at him. Eunuch Lishi saw that he had changed into a new dress and looked cleaner than before. Xiaoming walked ahead while Eunuch Lianying followed him.

Xiaoming saw Cha Ying in his mother’s chamber, and it was enough to raise his anger. He greeted his mother and put his hands down.

“I heard what the Crown Prince did. He must apologize to Cha Ying. She has come to ask for the Crown Prince’s forgiveness. But he started to shout at her. This behavior of the Crown Prince isn’t acceptable to me,” Zhu Liling reprimanded Xiaoming.

“Why did the mother show her the dream of marrying me!?” Xiaoming questioned. “When the father clearly told us that Miss Cha Ying is out of the Crown Princess’ race, then the Mother should have listened to that. If Mother tries to do it again, I will not hesitate to punish Miss Cha Ying and her family. I cannot tolerate annoyance for a long time,” he warned Zhu Liling.

Cha Ying widened her eyes and gazed in Xiaoming’s direction. However, his gaze was at his mother. She lowered her eyelids when Xiaoming looked at her.

“I am starting to hate Miss Cha Ying. She should have gone to her house instead of coming back to see my mother. If you were sincere in your attitude, your apology, even once, then I would not be conversing with you this rudely. If she has a little bit of smartness and conscience, then she should never come to see me.”

Zhu Liling intervened again, this time when Xiaoming told her to stop.

“I won’t mind taking this matter to the King. Then, Mother has to take the punishment as well.”

Zhu Liling turned quiet while Cha Ying left after bowing. She was a fool to come to the Queen. Now, there was no way she could marry Xiaoming because he loathed her. It was visible not only in his voice but eyes too.

“The Crown Prince should not have done this. Her Majesty only desired his advancement. Currently, the Kang family is the most powerful noble family in the Kingdom. If Miss Cha Ying marries the Crown Prince, then he will have great support.” This time, Eunuch Lianying conveyed the thoughts of Zhu Liling.

“Did I ask you to decide for my future!?” Xiaoming arched his brow. He realized that Eunuch Lianying was the one who had filled his mother’s ears. “I know that my marriage with Cha Ying, if it happens, then you will also benefit. Kang Xi and you have been in contact for a long time. Don’t make me open my mouth. Just let things remain as they are,” Xiaoming stated.

Eunuch Lianying didn’t know that Xiaoming knew so many things about him. He used to think of him as a na?ve prince.

“What will the Crown Prince do if Cha Ying marries any of his younger brothers?” Zhu Liling walked up to him and held both of his arms. “The Crown Prince must think rationally. He cannot play with his future like this. The Crown Prince must marry a woman with a strong family background. It helps him in the long run,” she asserted. This time, her voice was calmer than before.

“I would have married her if she were not like her father. Don’t make me hate you because of her. If the Mother keeps forcing me to marry her, I may stop seeing her. She doesn’t need to tell me how I can become powerful. I know what I have to do. Mother should focus on her other work instead of this,” Xiaoming said while yanking her arms off his arms. He stepped back and left for his manor.

“The Crown Prince has lost his mind, Your Majesty,” Eunuch Lianying complained as soon as Xiaoming left. “The Crown Prince even raised the question of my loyalty toward him and you. What benefits can a Eunuch get from the marriage of the Crown Prince? I was only thinking about him,” he said.

“Let the Crown Prince’s anger subside. I will talk with him once more when he is calm,” Zhu Liling told him and asked him not to let this incident fall into anyone’s ears.

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Eunuch Lianying bowed and knitted his brows.
