Chapter 1786: Chapter 1786: Reward (3)
“Crown Princess Consort?” Jinhua noticed Shen Junru was in a daze and quickly called out softly.
“I’ve said it before, I am rely a plaything, serving the Prince with my looks only.” Shen Junru had cald down, gave a slight smile, “The Crown Prince… would never allow a concubine to climb over my head.” She glanced at Yin Hua, “I know your hearts ache for … but you should know what can and cannot be spoken. So words, once said, bring nothing but trouble… You must know, many eyes are on the Crown Prince, and even more on …”
“Your Highness, this servant was wrong.” Yin Hua looked remorseful, “I will certainly not speak carelessly from now on.”
“Stand up.” Shen Junru sighed, “Do not let it happen again, or if outsiders find out, I’m afraid I won’t be able to protect you.”
Yin Hua hastily bowed her head, then stood up, feeling frightened at heart.
anwhile, the West Wing Hall was filled with warmth.
Feng Rong, dressed beautifully, was gently plucking the strings of a zither.
Qi Jingchen sat across, savoring tea.
As the music finished, Feng Rong sat beside Qi Jingchen, “Crown Prince, how did I play?”
“Such lodies exist only in heaven,”
“Then does the Crown Prince have a reward for ?”
“Yes, what does Rong’er want?” Qi Jingchen nodded with a smile, “As long as it is within my power, whatever Rong’er desires…”
Feng Rong’s heart tensed briefly, but she still raised her moist eyes and looked at him affectionately, “Crown Prince, could you grant Rong’er a… Little Prince?”
Qi Jingchen’s expression darkened.
“Crown Prince!” Feng Rong shivered in fear from that cold gaze and hurriedly knelt down, “Rong’er overstepped.”
A flash of coldness passed through Qi Jingchen’s eyes, but soon he sighed, “Rong’er, of course I wish you could bear a son, but… but my health… cough, cough…”
Frightened, Feng Rong quickly reached out to pat Qi Jingchen on the back, yet her eyes flickered with so guilty light.
The eunuch serving nearby hurried over, took out a dicine pill, and handed it to the Crown Prince.
Qi Jingchen opened his mouth and swallowed it. After a while, he finally cald down, and then sighed, “Rong’er, to be honest, I’ve been poisoned, I don’t even know since when, I’ve been barely holding on, and won’t last many more days… In front of others, I must endure, otherwise if the Emperor finds out, he will surely strip of my position as Crown Prince… Only in front of you can I relax a little…”
“Crown…” Feng Rong’s lips quivered slightly.
“Previously I took the Tiger Wolf Potion prepared by the Imperial Physician to go to war, although I survived, my body has been hollowed out…” Qi Jingchen sighed, “Yet, I truly can’t bear to part with you.”
“Your Highness.” Feng Rong’s eyes reddened suddenly.
“Rong’er, you must understand, the Crown Princess Consort was a marriage decreed by the Emperor, and set by my mother long ago.” Qi Jingchen’s eyes reddened too, “I had to marry her, but after having you, I realized what true feelings are like…”
Feng Rong’s tears started to fall, one after another.
“Rong’er, if… if I can survive, in this life, I will never let you down…”
“Don’t say that.” Feng Rong quickly shook her head, “You’ll definitely get better.”
Qi Jingchen smiled, the curtain falling, shielding that bone-chilling coldness, the chance was given to you, it’s your fault for not cherishing it, so don’t bla for turning heartless.
