Chapter 15 Rejected Advances
Soon, the wedding date for Zhao Yan and Zhang Ruhua was set.
It was at the beginning of next month.
Spring outing, apricot blossoms blowing all over the head.
It was the best time of the year.
Naturally, he had no mind to worry about my marriage anymore.
Afraid of causing more trouble, I stayed behind closed doors in the mansion.
But Lu Yinchuan came to find me, saying his birthday was coming soon.
He asked if I could fulfill one wish for him.
I thought of how this person had been stabbed with a sword because of me and lay at home for most of the month, feeling quite guilty.
"What do you want?"
"But let me say in advance, I don't have much silver."
A smile rippled in Lu Yinchuan's eyes.
"Don't worry, I don't want your silver."
"As long as you accompany me for a day."
What a coincidence.
His birthday was exactly the day before Zhao Yan's wedding.
After he got married, not long after, I would also go to Jinling.
It was really a happy ending for all.
That night, I went out according to the agreed day with him.
But I did not wait for Lu Yinchuan, instead, I waited for Zhang Ruhua.
She looked at me, almost as if breaking the cauldrons and sinking the boats, and asked:
"Chu Bingzhi."
"If I have a way to not be the crown princess, to not want these so-called glory and wealth."
"Can you take me away?"
I looked at the lady in front of me, this former love rival.
"Why?"
She said, "Your Highness does not like me, he has someone else in his heart."
"I also have in my heart... Have you forgotten? You saved me twice."
I was stunned for a long time before I remembered that the girl I saved that night on the Lantern Festival was actually Zhang Ruhua.
I almost felt foolish.
The person she liked, it could not be me.
Everything was messed up.
In this reborn life, how had it all come to this.
I patiently said, "But Your Highness will like you later, you will be in harmony and grow old together in love."
She bit her lip.
"You really don't want me?"
I nodded.
I could not want her anyway.
She pursed her lips, looked at me carefully for a while, and finally smiled in relief, "You are not afraid that I would dislike you for not being able there?"
"Don't worry, I won't... If I marry you, I will find a way to help you."
The Zhang Guifei from the previous life was famously steady and proper, but I did not expect her to have such a shocking, impulsive, and reckless side in her youth.
I said, "You go back, it's not because of this."
"Being the crown princess is the best destination for you."
Believe me, your husband will love you later.
After Zhang Ruhua left, I was about to sigh in relief.
When I heard a voice coming from the corner.
"It seems This Prince came at an inconvenient time."
