"Your Highness, you need to be responsible for your actions, and you need to be responsible for the people of Lingnan.

As for Miss Xiangqiu, I dare not argue with you. I will arrange for someone to send you home safely.

However, from now on, you must sever this relationship, I beg you. "

The eldest prince and Xiang Qiu were both silent, their eyes were full of helplessness.

In this era of strict hierarchy, their emotions are destined to be not allowed.

The eldest prince was in a dilemma. He understood why Du Zesheng suddenly became like this.

In the past, they were in Lingnan and had not yet been involved in the court disputes.

But now it is different. The emperor is pressing him step by step and even wants him to marry the daughter of the Sun family.

If he stayed with Xiangqiu at this time, he would not put his and Xiangqiu's comfort first.

He also knew that this was very irresponsible, but he really couldn't help it.

He couldn't bear to see Xiangqiu cry, and he couldn't control his own heart.

Du Zesheng was right, maybe he really should end this relationship.

"Okay, Master Du, please take me away and don't disturb Yunlang's rest."

Xiang Qiu looked back at the eldest prince, her eyes full of reluctance.

The eldest prince was dressed in a blue shirt, his face was haggard, and his eyes were also full of reluctance.

Xiang Qiu was wearing a plain dress, and there seemed to be traces of tears on her pretty face.

Shang Shixu stood aside, not knowing what to say. She actually hoped that the eldest prince would separate from Xiangqiu.

This way she wouldn't have to risk rebellion, but such a great prince,

Shang Shixu began to lose confidence in whether he was suitable to be a crown prince.

The eldest prince lowered his head and clenched his hands, but he finally couldn't help himself and pulled Xiangqiu back.

They hugged each other tightly, their breath intertwined, as if they wanted to freeze this moment.

"Don't go. I will never give up on you. Absolutely not."

The eldest prince seemed to have a mental breakdown. How could he drive away with his beloved woman?

Xiang Qiu turned around and hugged the eldest prince, choking with sobs and responded: "Yun Lang, I can't bear to leave you, but I understand that you are a prince.

I am just a poor girl, how can I accompany you forever? Why don't we break up?

From now on, you and I will never see each other again. That's it. This is our best ending.

Yunlang, let go. I should leave with Master Du.

Don't make him wait anxiously. Okay, I'm leaving now. Goodbye, Yunlang."

The eldest prince held Xiang Qiu tightly and refused to let go. How could he bear it?

His heart was filled with contradictions and pain. He knew that the journey ahead was long and full of unknowns.

But for the sake of future and responsibility, I had to leave.

He was reluctant to part with his lover, but he also longed to achieve something.

He was really conflicted and had to admit that he had thought about becoming an emperor.

But for Xiangqiu, he suppressed it again and again. This time, after Shang Shixu and Du Zesheng made such a fuss,

He knew it was time to put an end to it.

Xiangqiu was filled with worry and helplessness. She was worried that her lover might encounter difficulties outside.

She was also afraid that time would dilute their feelings. She hoped to move forward with him.

But I also know that I cannot be a burden to him, and can only pray silently for his safety when we part.

Praying that their love can withstand the test of distance.

"Xiang Qiu, this lady..."

The eldest prince spoke, and Shang Shixu and Du Zesheng were both looking forward to his answer.

In this simple house, the eldest prince stood in front of the window, gazing into the distance.

He had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but for the sake of his lover, he decided to give up the throne.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, he has never been interested in the throne,

Even what he said to Shang Shixu before was just a lie.

See if he can really be loyal to himself and whether he can save his life.

The throne has always been his goal since childhood, and this position carries endless power and glory.

He asked to leave to avoid the wise king. The third prince was of no use at all.

Sure enough, a few years later, the virtuous king became lame, and the third prince was also overthrown by Shang Shixu.

Everything was ready, but something unexpected happened. He met his beloved in Lingnan.

After getting along with Yu Xiangqiu, he finally understood that there are things in the world more precious than the throne.

During those months in Beijing, he often recalled every moment he spent with his lover.

Those warm pictures flashed in my mind. Her smile, her gentleness,

They all became an inseparable concern in his heart.

Giving up the throne means he will lose power and status.

But he has no regrets. In his heart, the happiness and joy of his lover are the most important.

He knew that this road was full of difficulties, but he took this step resolutely.

He believed that even without the halo of the throne, he could live a happy life with his lover.

He felt extremely relieved at the moment of making the decision.

The weight of the throne was lifted from his shoulders, but his love for his lover grew stronger.

He turned away from the window, and walked firmly towards the future that belonged to him and his lover.

He believes that with love, their lives will be filled with warmth and happiness.

"I am willing to stay in Lingnan with Xiangqiu, and I have no regrets."

Shang Shixu breathed a sigh of relief, but Du Zesheng was breathless.

In the simple house, Du Zesheng had a solemn expression on his face as he pulled Shang Shixu to sit beside the eldest prince.

He spoke earnestly and earnestly, "Your Highness, you are the one who carries the hope of the people. You should put the country first, not be trapped by the personal feelings of your children."

After saying that, he poked Shang Shixu, hoping that he could speak for himself.

The eldest prince looked embarrassed. Although he loved his lover, he also understood that what the ministers said made sense.

Shang Shixu was annoyed by Du Zesheng's prodding and could only perfunctorily step forward: "Your Highness, love is beautiful, but the country needs you to protect it more. If you ignore the world because of your personal feelings, wouldn't you fail the people's expectations?"

Du Zesheng nodded in satisfaction, while the eldest prince looked at Shang Shixu in disbelief.

Didn't he agree that Xiangqiu and I should be together? Why did he go back on his word?

Shang Shixu sneered. After the eldest prince's performance just now,

She had already figured out that the eldest prince's previous words about her rebelling were all lies.

It's despicable that he actually wanted to cheat her.

The eldest prince had no choice but to lower his head in deep thought. Du Zesheng's advice echoed in his ears like a warning bell.

Seeing that he was silent, Du Zesheng added fuel to the fire: "Your Highness, your lover must also hope that you can become a great monarch."

The eldest prince raised his head, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He didn't believe that Xiangqiu would be willing to let him leave.

"Xiang Qiu, do you really want me to leave like Du Zesheng said?"

Xiang Qiu was silent. Of course, she didn't want the eldest prince to leave. Who would be willing to let their lover go?

But what if your lover really wants to ascend the throne?

Xiang Qiu looked up. She should understand that perhaps letting go is the best outcome.
