Chapter 244 The details
"The Crown Prince recently came to me and said that the Crown Princess was bored in the palace and hoped that I could bring you into the palace to spend more time with her." Lu Shengyuan said slowly.
Lin Wanqing was stunned and smiled.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best and not cause any trouble for you."
She knew that this was Lu Shengyuan's responsibility as a prince and he could not escape it, so he would not act arbitrarily.
"This prince knows the princess's temperament, but the Crown Princess is unruly. The princess must be more careful when she enters the palace."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. I will protect myself." Lin Wanqing responded softly.
She knew Lu Shengyuan's worries and understood that she couldn't cause him any trouble.
"The princess is always smart and will definitely be able to handle it well."
Lu Shengyuan smiled, picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and put it into Lin Wanqing's bowl, "Princess, eat more. Don't go hungry."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lin Wanqing thanked him with a smile and lowered his head to eat.
But the meal was eaten in silence.
After entering the palace, how should she deal with the difficulties posed by the Crown Princess?
Although she was not afraid, she did not want to cause trouble for Lu Shengyuan.
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing with deep eyes.
He knew that his worries about Lin Wanqing were unnecessary, but she was a woman after all, and being in the cannibalistic harem, it was inevitable that she would be hurt.
He couldn't protect her all the time, he could only remind her as much as possible.
"Princess, I have a gift for you."
Lu Shengyuan suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.
"What gift?" Lin Wanqing asked curiously.
Lu Shengyuan took out a small brocade box from his sleeve and handed it to her.
Lin Wanqing took the brocade box and opened it. Inside was a jade pendant that was completely emerald green and exuded a faint fragrance.
"This is something I accidentally got at the border. I'm giving it to you," Lu Shengyuan explained.
Lin Wanqing looked at the jade pendant in her hand, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
She didn't expect Lu Shengyuan to give her a gift, and it was such a precious jade pendant.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lin Wanqing looked at Lu Shengyuan gratefully, not knowing what to say.
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing and smiled slightly.
"As long as the princess likes it."
"I like it very much." Lin Wanqing replied with a smile.
She looked at Lu Shengyuan and suddenly an idea came to her mind.
Perhaps, she could try to understand Lu Shengyuan, his preferences and habits.
This way, the distance between them can be closer.
"Your Highness, when I enter the palace next time, do you have any words or things to bring to the Crown Princess?" Lin Wanqing asked tentatively.
Lu Shengyuan was slightly stunned when he heard this.
"I don't have anything to bring, but Princess, please give my regards to the Crown Princess."
He paused, then continued, "The Crown Princess likes poetry and songs, and the Princess can chat with her about these."
"I'll remember this."
Lin Wanqing nodded, but felt a little disappointed.
It turned out that Lu Shengyuan asked her to enter the palace just to chat with the Crown Princess, not because of her.
However, this is normal.
After all, she is Lu Shengyuan's princess, so it is her duty to do these things.
"Princess, what's wrong?" Lu Shengyuan noticed that Lin Wanqing was in a low mood and asked with concern.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about how to get along with the Crown Princess when I enter the palace in the future." Lin Wanqing made up an excuse.
She didn't want Lu Shengyuan to know her little thoughts, and she didn't want him to think that she was being unreasonable.
"Don't worry, Princess. Although the Crown Princess is unruly, she is not a bad person by nature. You will know it after you interact with her a few more times." Lu Shengyuan comforted her.
"The Crown Prince recently visited me. He mentioned me and the Princess intentionally or unintentionally, and it seemed like he was trying to win me over."
Lu Shengyuan's face darkened slightly, and his voice became a little colder.
"Princess, when you enter the palace in the future, you must be more cautious and careful not to be caught by others."
Lin Wanqing felt a tightness in his heart when he heard this.
She knew that Lu Shengyuan was caught in the vortex of the struggle for the throne, and if he was not careful, he would be doomed.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will always be careful about my words and actions and will not cause any trouble for you."
"This prince knows that the princess has always been sensible."
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
"I don't ask the princess to do me any favors, I just hope that the princess can be safe and sound."
"Your Majesty..."
When Lin Wanqing heard this, a warm feeling surged in his heart.
She didn't expect Lu Shengyuan to say such a thing, and she didn't expect him to care about her safety.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will protect myself and won't let Your Majesty worry."
She looked at Lu Shengyuan, her voice firm and gentle.
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing and nodded.
He believed that Lin Wanqing could do it because she had always been a smart and cautious woman.
"I've been thinking lately that maybe I should spend more time with the Crown Prince."
Lu Shengyuan spoke slowly, his voice low and magnetic.
"What does the prince mean?"
Lin Wanqing's heart moved when he heard this.
She knew that Lu Shengyuan had been secretly observing the prince, but she didn't expect that he would take the initiative to ask for contact with the prince.
"This prince thinks that he may be able to obtain some useful information from the prince."
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing with deep eyes.
"Also, when the princess enters the palace in the future, she can also take the opportunity to have more contact with the crown princess."
Lin Wanqing felt a tightness in his heart when he heard this.
She knew Lu Shengyuan's intention, but she still felt uneasy at the thought of having to be feigned intimacy with the Crown Princess.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will do my best."
She looked at Lu Shengyuan with a firm voice.
She knew that this was her responsibility and obligation as a princess.
"I know your princess's difficulties, but I believe she is capable of doing the job."
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
He knew Lin Wanqing's intelligence and wit, and believed that she could handle any situation.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I won't let you down."
Lin Wanqing looked at Lu Shengyuan and smiled slightly.
She knew that she could not let Lu Shengyuan down.
"This king knows."
Lu Shengyuan looked at Lin Wanqing with gentle and deep eyes.
"This king will send some people to the princess to protect her safety."
"The Crown Prince has recently approached me, testing my stance with both words and expressions. I think I could use this opportunity to build a closer relationship with the Crown Prince."
Lu Shengyuan spoke slowly, his tone revealing a hint of deep thought.
"What do you think, Princess?"
He asked Lin Wanqing.
Lin Wanqing was slightly stunned when he heard this.
She didn't expect Lu Shengyuan to ask for her opinion.
"I think Your Highness should act with caution. After all, the Crown Prince is a man of deep thoughts and not someone you can easily deal with."
She pondered for a moment and gave her opinion.
Lu Shengyuan nodded.
"What the princess said makes sense. I will proceed with caution."
He paused, then added, "However, I would also like to take this opportunity to explore the Crown Prince's background."
Lin Wanqing's heart moved when he heard this.
"What is your Majesty going to do?"
