After half a cup of tea, Chu Huanyan and Liu Changhan sat at the stone table in the back garden.

Xianyue put down the tea, took a few steps back, and stood quietly aside.

Chu Huanyan didn't mince words and asked directly: "Prime Minister Liu said he wanted to see me. Is there something he wanted to say?"

Liu Changhan secretly took a look at Chu Huanyan, and he felt relieved when he saw that everything on the other side was as usual. It seemed that nothing serious was wrong with him.

"Miss Chu's body should be fine, right?"

"Thank you, Prime Minister Liu, for your concern. I'm fine now."

"That's good." Liu Changhan nodded lightly, and after a moment of silence, he spoke again, "I wonder if Miss Chu knows the behavior of His Highness the Crown Prince during the period when you were unconscious."

"What does the Prime Minister mean?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not arrange for the enthronement, nor did he go to the morning court. He just reviewed the documents in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion. Many courtiers came to the door to persuade, but were driven back directly. The reason for doing this was just because The prince wants to protect you." Liu Changhan spoke solemnly, looking at Chu Huanyan with a bit of scrutiny.

Now that Emperor Xiao is dead, Xiao Rongxuan was originally a guilty person, but later he injured Chu Huanyan, died of serious injuries, and lost his life.

His Highness the Crown Prince's accession to the throne is already certain, but in this case, just because Chu Huanyan was unconscious, His Highness the Crown Prince abandoned everything and stayed in the Ning'an Marquis' Mansion. Such a thing is really not what a qualified emperor should do.

"I've heard about this." Chu Huanyan faced Liu Changhan's appraising eyes calmly, and she had some vague guesses in her heart about why the other party wanted to see her.

Does Liu Changhan feel that his influence on Xiao Jinzhi is too great?

After all, in the eyes of the courtiers, how could a qualified king indulge in the love of his children, let alone affect government affairs because of a woman.

"Then Miss Chu doesn't have anything to say?" Liu Changhan couldn't help but frowned when he saw that Chu Huanyan just said that she would stop talking after hearing about it, "Miss Chu, I understand that you and His Highness have a long-standing engagement. Moreover, we have deep feelings. When His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne, he will definitely make you his queen. But I dare to ask, do you really know what the responsibilities of a queen are?"

As a queen, she should advise the emperor to put the country, the country, and the country first at all times.

Seeing Chu Huanyan's appearance, he really doubted whether the other party could do this.

"What Prime Minister Liu said about the queen's responsibility is that in the face of Xiao Jinzhi's deep friendship, I should reject it with a cold face, or even accuse him?"

Hearing Chu Huanyan call Xiao Jinzhi by his name without any hesitation, Liu Changhan felt a little dissatisfied.

"Miss Chu, the truth is that I am not asking you to accuse His Highness the Crown Prince. I just hope that you can properly advise His Highness the Crown Prince to put the country, the country and the country first." Liu Changhan said seriously.

Seeing him like this, Chu Huanyan couldn't help but smile sarcastically.

"Although I have only been in a coma for half a month, I think the changes in the court are really not small. Looking at the appearance of the Prime Minister, if you don't know, I might think that you have always focused on the country, the country, and the country, and you have never had any small things. abacus."

The person who is sitting here and giving me high-sounding opinions now was wavering not long ago and only thought about seeking more benefits for the Liu family.

Liu Changhan's face froze. He thought that after hearing his words, the worst result would be that Chu Huanyan didn't take it to heart at all, and then issued an order to expel the guest, but he didn't expect that the other party would directly ridicule him.

"Miss Chu, no matter what happened before, the overall situation has been decided now, and the truth is that you sincerely want to assist His Highness the Crown Prince. Why do you have to say so unpleasant things?"

"The Prime Minister was joking. I was just joking casually. If this is an ugly thing, I can only say it. The worse thing is that I haven't said it yet."

Chu Huanyan had a faint smile on her face, and there was no trace of malice or dissatisfaction in her eyes when she looked at Liu Changhan.

"Prime Minister Liu, I understand that as a courtier you have to say something, and I also believe that you are sincerely assisting Xiao Jinzhi now. However, let alone Xiao Jinzhi not yet ascending the throne, even if he does ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor , I will not abandon his love like a pair of worn-out shoes."

"Are you ignoring government affairs?"

"Did Xiao Jinzhi delay government affairs during this period?" Chu Huanyan asked.

Liu Changhan choked for a moment. Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been staying at Ning'an Marquis Mansion during this period, the affairs in the court have been arranged fairly well, and nothing has been delayed. What's more, the courtiers are worried, and the people are also worried. discussion.

Seeing that Liu Changhan didn't speak, Chu Huanyan laughed again.

"It seems that it didn't delay too much, and it didn't cause any serious consequences."

"Miss Chu, you can't say that. His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely ascend the throne. He will be the emperor!"

How could an emperor put the love of his children before his family, country, and world?

"Yes, Xiao Jinzhi will ascend the throne, and he will become a high-ranking emperor. Every day when he opens his eyes, he will be faced with endless tasks. Looking around, everyone surrenders, but there are countless troubles that need to be solved by him. Countless troubles need to be solved by him. Events require him to make decisions. Being in a high position and feeling lonely may be the fate of an emperor, and Xiao Jinzhi will not escape. But even if it is destined to be like this..."

Chu Huanyan took a deep breath and suppressed the image of Xiao Jinzhi from her previous life that appeared in her mind.

"There is no way I can put shackles on him one after another about what an emperor should be like, as Prime Minister Liu and other courtiers expected. Even in the face of his sincerity, I have to knock him down and then accuse him of not doing what he should do. in this way."

"Can……"

"Prime Minister Liu."

Chu Huanyan interrupted Liu Changhan directly and continued.

"I understand Xiao Jinzhi's responsibility, and I also understand that a good emperor should put the people of the world first. However, I still want to believe in Xiao Jinzhi, believe that he can have both. I also believe in myself, and believe in I can always be by his side, hold his hand when he is lonely, and tell him that at least I am still here."

She had seen with her own eyes how Xiao Jinzhi acted as king and emperor in the previous life. Although it was not that pitiful and miserable, and maybe even that was what an emperor should look like, she still didn't want Xiao Jinzhi to become like that in this life.

Liu Changhan looked at Chu Huanyan. The other person's expression was too firm and too clear. It was so clear that he felt as if he had nothing to say.

Then in the corridor of the back garden, Xiao Jinzhi and Qin Li, who were frequent eavesdroppers, heard clearly what Chu Huanyan just said.

Qin Li sighed inwardly and turned to look at His Highness...
