My princess always wants me to usurp the throne

Chapter 289
On the quiet bank of Luohu Lake, Yangliu Yiyi, under the reflection of the moonlight, is covered with shadows, gently rippling with the breeze.

A man stands under a willow tree, with a long body and a tall and straight figure.

After Xie Shitong came back from Ting Yuxuan, he didn't go back to Xie's house, but went straight to Luohu.

Under the silent night, the man turned around and looked at her from a distance, his expression as pale as water.

Xie Shitong smiled, and slowly stepped forward to salute, "See the third prince."

Rong Lu stretched his eyebrows a little, "You don't need to be polite to me, why did you come?"

She stood up straight, her eyelids drooped slightly, and her voice was soft and soft, "I haven't seen Miss Shen for a long time, so we chatted for a while."

Rong Lu raised his eyebrows, his drooping hands were gradually curled up, his cold voice seemed to be deliberately suppressing something.

"Father is currently ill, and the crown prince is about to get married. I have considered it for a long time, and feel that it is really inappropriate to propose marriage at this time."

"Shitong, do you understand me?"

His usual cold and gloomy expression was covered by a touch of tenderness, his eyes were full of expectation, and he stared at her burningly.

Xie Shitong was stunned for a moment, raised his eyes to meet his gaze, the disappointment in his heart was restrained by his little warmth.

She made a far-fetched smile, "Third Prince is considerate and puts the overall situation first. I can definitely understand you."

Rong Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled faintly, "Your only relative is not around, and you can still have such a good quality. Your father really has a good vision."

Xie Shitong's gaze was clouded, and the warmth in his chest spread, and he lowered his eyes in embarrassment, "The third prince praises you."

Rong Lu didn't answer the words, and stared at her quietly, with some entanglements in his heart, which he couldn't sort out for a while.

The atmosphere condensed in silence, lingering with a touch of friendship.

Xie Shitong felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, raised his eyes and asked him: "Does the Third Prince have anything else to say?"

Rong Lu came back to his senses, his eyes flickered, and he moved his lips, "En."

She frowned slightly, tugged at the dress with her fingers uneasily, and asked with a smile, "What do you want to say?"

Rong Lu took a deep breath, took her hand, lowered his head and said softly: "The prince has not made clear his position on Xie's family, so I can only wait and see."

"Otherwise, both the father and the prince will think that I have a different heart, and that will not only harm me, but also you and General Xie."

Xie Shitong was startled, and subconsciously withdrew his hand, "Are you trying to separate yourself from me?"

Rong Lu quickly shook his head: "Of course not. When the time is right, I will definitely promise you that before I can't guarantee your safety, wouldn't it be irresponsible for me to act blindly and impulsively?"

Xie Shitong was dumbfounded.

I have to admit that although she was disappointed, what he said moved her very much.

Eldest brother has always remained neutral, this time the crown prince chose her as one of the concubines, and it was the emperor who made the decision without elder brother's consent.

What was the relationship between them, she couldn't figure it out at all.

She nodded blankly: "I see, what do you say, I will do."

"Not angry?" Rong Lu asked her in a low voice.

She smiled and shook her head: "No, you are thinking of the Xie family, how dare I be angry?"

Rong Lu's eyes were inexplicable, and he said lightly: "Go back!"

Xie Shitong said yes.

The two walked towards Xie's house one after the other, Rong Lu leaned back slightly, feeling a little complicated.

Those cold and warning words were still in his ears, and he only felt his heart tremble.

Some thoughts are like being poured with a basin of cold water, from head to toe, very thorough.
