Xiaoyue's eyes flashed with tears of emotion. She knew that her fate was closely connected with Leng Hao, and her future would become better because of Leng Hao.
"Your Highness, thank you for your trust." Xiaoyue said gratefully.
"Silly girl, you are my future wife. I don't trust who you trust." Leng Hao said softly, his eyes as deep as the night sky shining with firm determination. He stretched out his hand and held Xiaoyue's trembling fingertips tightly, as if he wanted to pass on a touch of warmth to her in this way.
Xiaoyue's heart was beating violently. She couldn't believe her ears, let alone the man in front of her. His words were full of sincerity and determination, which shocked her immensely. She knew that her destiny would change dramatically from now on.
Leng Hao led Xiaoyue into the depths of the palace, and their figures gradually disappeared in the moonlight. The moonlight shines on them, giving their outlines a layer of silver, making them look particularly mysterious and holy.
…
The next day, Leng Hao led Xiaoyue to appear in the court. All the courtiers were stunned. Their eyes were looking at Xiaoyue up and down. They were really curious about what kind of person could attract the attention of their Crown Prince.
Xiaoyue was wearing a light blue dress, and the skirt fluttered gently in the wind, like a newly blooming flower. Her eyebrows are picturesque, her skin is as beautiful as snow, and she is breathtakingly beautiful. There was a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in her eyes, like a frightened deer, which made people feel affectionate.
Leng Hao stood beside her, his deep eyes flashing with firm determination. He looked at Xiaoyue, as if telling her that he would always be by her side, guarding her, and protecting her.
All the courtiers were shocked. They had never seen His Highness the Crown Prince doting on a woman so much. Their hearts were full of doubts and curiosity. They wanted to know who this woman was and why she was favored by His Highness the Crown Prince.
Xiaoyue felt those gazes, and her heart was filled with tension and uneasiness. She held Leng Hao's hand tightly, as if she wanted to find some comfort and courage in this way.
Leng Hao felt her nervousness, and he patted the back of her hand gently, his deep eyes flashing with encouragement and comfort.
Xiaoyue looked at Leng Hao, and her heart was filled with emotion. She knew that her destiny would change dramatically from now on. She knew that she was no longer the "orphan" that no one cared about or loved.
Leng Hao looked at Xiaoyue, his heart filled with love. He vowed that he would use his whole life to protect this woman and let her live a happy life.
"Your Highness, the origin of this girl is unknown and she is from a humble background. She is really not worthy of His Highness." An older courtier stood up, his voice full of seriousness and dissatisfaction. His eyes flashed with persistence in tradition and doubts about Xiaoyue's identity.
"Yes, how can this woman be worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince's status?" Another courtier agreed, with a hint of contempt and disdain in his tone. He glanced at Xiaoyue as if her existence was an insult to the entire court.
Leng Hao's eyes turned slightly cold, and he turned to look at the questioning voices. His voice was firm and powerful: "Dear ministers, although Xiaoyue is not of high origin, she has a kind heart and noble character. She is the woman that I, Leng Hao, like. In my eyes, status does not matter. What’s important, what’s important is what’s inside a person.”
After his words fell, the court fell into silence. The ministers exchanged looks with each other, their hearts filled with shock. They never thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would be so determined and persistent for a lowly woman.
Xiaoyue stood beside Leng Hao, and she felt his firmness and support. Her heart was filled with gratitude. She knew that this man really cared about her and was really willing to give everything for her.
Leng Hao looked at Xiaoyue, his eyes full of encouragement and determination. He held her hand gently, as if telling her that no matter what happened, he would be by her side, guarding her, and protecting her.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, this is absolutely impossible. If you want to marry the Crown Princess, you must marry someone who matches your status." A middle-aged minister stood up, with a hint of anxiety and persistence in his voice. His eyes flashed with persistence for the glory of the royal family and deep doubts about Xiaoyue's identity.
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the future king of Tianqi, and the princess on whom the sun never sets is of the same age as His Highness the Crown Prince." Another minister then said, his tone revealing his expectations for the royal marriage and his disdain for Xiaoyue.
Leng Hao's eyes turned slightly cold, and he turned to look at the questioning voices. His voice was firm and powerful: "Ministers, I understand your concerns, but I believe that a real marriage is based on mutual respect and understanding. Xiaoyue's origin does not affect her quality and personality. She is The woman I like, I am willing to give up everything for her.”
After his words fell, the court fell into silence. The ministers exchanged looks with each other, their hearts filled with shock. They never thought that His Highness the Crown Prince would be so determined and persistent for a lowly woman.
Xiaoyue stood beside Leng Hao, and she felt his firmness and support. Her heart was filled with gratitude. She knew that this man really cared about her and was really willing to give everything for her.
"That's enough." Liu Qingge interrupted directly, and then asked Leng Hao: "Hao'er, do you really want to marry this woman?"
"Yes, mother."
"Haoer, do you really not regret it?" Liu Qingge shook her head, her eyes flashed with confusion, but more of a soft light, "Why are you so obsessed with this woman?"
Leng Hao smiled slightly, with a firm light shining in his eyes: "Mom, what I want is just a partner to spend my life with, a partner I can trust."
Liu Qingge looked at him, with a complicated light shining in her eyes. She knew that her son was no longer the child who needed her protection. He had his own choices and decisions.
"In that case, I invite you all to witness the engagement between me, Leng Hao, and Yue'er." Leng Hao's voice echoed in the court, his eyes flashed with determination, and his hand held Xiaoyue's hand tightly, as if I want to pass on this determination to everyone.
The crowd in the court watched this scene, their eyes flashing with shock. They knew that this woman would become their crown princess and their future queen.
"I didn't expect the prince to marry a commoner!"
All the ministers did not expect that His Highness the Crown Prince would be so persistent.
