Chapter 55 of Volume 1: Don't Disappoint the Prince

  Ji Zhaohui smiled slightly and didn't mind, putting down the tea cup: "Last night, Wang Ye said that Sister Han wasn't leaving, so I was relieved. If Sister Han feels that there's anything lacking in her care, please speak up, and I can still make decisions for you. Since you live far away, I naturally need to take extra care of you."

  Han Caiwei glanced at Ji Zhaohui sideways: "I'm leaving, it's good for you. They're going to report to you, if you want to deal with me, I have nothing to say, and you can also take the opportunity to get rid of me. With one less woman by the king's side, why do you still want to keep me? Your thoughts are really beyond my understanding!"

  Ji Zhaohui smiled slightly: "Autumn Hua and Summer Hua are the maidservants trained by the prince, not mine. In fact, my Spring Hua is also the prince's person. The maidservant I brought from the General's Manor died a few years ago, so the prince assigned Spring Hua and Winter Hua to me. Winter Hua fell ill recently, so I sent her back home to rest. Later, the prince asked me to assign Autumn Hua and Summer Hua to you, which made me realize that you are special in his heart. That's why when they came to report to me, I told the prince about it, hoping he could understand your thoughts and not let you go."

  "Nature is different, I have his son, you don't. Considering his son's sake, he naturally thinks I'm different."

  Ji Zhaohui smiled slightly after hearing Han Caimei's words, then looked up at her with a warm and calm gaze: "Han sister, I don't know what the prince said to you, maybe Xu'er has some reason too, but if there was no Xu'er, he wouldn't be willing to let you go either. Last night, after hearing Shuang'er's words, it was the first time I saw the prince say that his heart is troubled. In all these years, the prince has never been like this before. I think Han sister is a clever person, you should understand what I want to say."

  Han Caiwei didn't want to think deeply about it and just pursed her lips saying: "I promised I wouldn't leave, so I won't."

  Ji Zhaohui pouted: "No, I hope you agree with me, you have to spend the rest of your life with Wang Ye, accompany him for the rest of his life!"

  Han Caiwei suddenly felt annoyed and frowned, looking at her: "Don't you think it's too much to ask me like this? He just did these things and I have to spend my whole life with him? Having a son doesn't mean he can restrict my freedom and thoughts! You, Wangshi, and the others are all accompanying him, what difference does it make if I'm there or not?"

  Her voice had unconsciously become very loud, and the words that followed were almost all shouted out. She knew it was very impolite to yell at a woman, but she couldn't help herself anymore.

  Ji Zhaohui simply looked at her, and slowly, a deep sorrow appeared in her gentle and quiet eyes. She stared at Han Caiwei and said softly: "Do you have to wait for him to tell you personally that he loves you before you believe what I'm saying? Can't your heart feel it? You have something that the Wang family has been seeking for generations but can't get. That's why I'm asking you not to waste the king's affection."

  Han Caiwei was dazed for a long time before lowering her eyes and saying, "I know, there's no need for the princess to tell me these things. My affairs will not require the princess's concern in the future either. My temperament is not what the princess understands it to be. If you entrust this to the wrong person, I'm afraid the princess will regret it later. I have no other extravagant desires. Since I promised not to leave, I won't leave. I just want to live well in another courtyard and take good care of my son. As for the prince, it's better for the princess to take care of him personally."

  A cold glint flashed at the bottom of her eyes. A great man's word is like a runaway horse, and a woman's promise is nothing but a promise. One plan fails, another plan is born. Why must she compete with so many women for one man? Compared to freedom, love in this era is a restraint, let alone it can't even be called love.
