BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1750 - 1750 Solution 2
“….”
“Let’s not dwell on it for now,” Gu Chaoyan continued, sounding relaxed as she shifted the topic to Liu Qingqing. “The guard from the Crown Prince’s Mansion informed us of the Crown Prince’s death. Very well, summon Liu Qingqing. I would love to meet her.”
Zhou Huaijin acknowledged her request.
Though Liu Qingqing and Gu Chaoyan hadn’t spent much time together, they had crossed paths on a few occasions. Zhou Huaijin could sense that Gu Chaoyan held a deep admiration for Liu Qingqing.
Gu Chaoyan had few friends and only sought the company of those she truly admired. She wouldn’t be disappointed when meeting Liu Qingqing voluntarily.
Zhou Huaijin instructed his staff to bring Liu Qingqing to Gu Chaoyan.
Concern for his wife still weighed heavily on his mind. Despite Gu Chaoyan’s seemingly indifferent demeanor, he knew she must be troubled by her condition as well.
He couldn’t help but feel constant worry whenever Gu Chaoyan failed to make a full recovery.
As Liu Qingqing and Yunyi arrived at Fengxian Palace, an unusual silence filled the air. No one uttered a word.
Liu Qingqing couldn’t help but feel perplexed about the situation. She glanced at Gu Chaoyan, who exchanged a meaningful look with her, acknowledging that what had transpired earlier had been witnessed by Yunyi as well.
Their relationship was undeniably peculiar.
Married to the same man, with one as the legal wife and the other as a concubine, they appeared remarkably close and shared a mutual avoidance of Zhou Huailing.
Zhou Huailing had been fortunate to have Liu Qingqing as his legal wife and Yunyi as his concubine.
What a wasted opportunity.
He had failed to appreciate his good fortune and ultimately met a grim demise. It was hard to imagine anyone meeting such a tragic fate as Zhou Huailing, but it was a fitting end for him.
Liu Qingqing was determined not to remarry, especially when she already had a son. If she could have Yunyi by her side for the rest of their lives, the three of them could lead a joyful and contented existence together.
Gu Chaoyan’s smile grew wider.
Though they hadn’t spent much time together, Liu Qingqing had become a dear friend to her. Seeing her friend living a good life brought comfort to Gu Chaoyan’s heart.
As Liu Qingqing entered the room, she remained silent. Kneeling down, she addressed Zhou Huaijin, “I am here to accept responsibility for my actions.”
“Please, rise. You are not guilty of any crime. In truth, even the King would face punishment if he were to commit any unlawful acts. The Crown Prince has committed numerous atrocities, including attempting to harm his own son. Your actions were entirely justified. Moreover, he would not have been allowed to remain in the capital,” Zhou Huaijin spoke frankly.
He had no concerns about the Crown Prince rebelling again. It simply wasn’t fitting for him to continue living in such circumstances.
If it hadn’t been Liu Qingqing, someone else would have eventually taken matters into their own hands.
In fact…
It was rather satisfying that it was Liu Qingqing who carried out the act.
Observing the seriousness of the situation, Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but smile. “Ms. Liu, I summoned you here not to discuss your supposed sins, but rather to have a conversation with you.”
