Ms. Doctor Divine Chapter 1740

1740 The Truth 4

Frustrated and seething with anger, Junyi couldn’t bear working for such a foolish Crown Prince any longer.

Even women dared to slap him, and this imbecile treated him as nothing more than a low-cla.s.s servant.

And now, this fool had the audacity to ask for a solution! He should realize that such an honor was undeserved!

With a swift motion, Junyi flung his sleeves and stormed away, consumed by anger.

He had come to a.s.sess whether this man had the resolve to rebel. If he had shown a glimmer of that desire, Junyi might have been convinced to take another risk. But this idiotic Crown Prince only cared about living a life of luxury! What a truly foolish man!

Cursing under his breath, Junyi left without a second thought.

Zhou Huailing, who had been thoroughly scolded, remained oblivious to what had just transpired.

He was stunned.

Junyi was his strategist! Though their time together was short, Junyi had proven to be a dedicated companion, tirelessly devising plans for him. Even in the busiest of times, Junyi never took a break. He never sought a.s.sistance from anyone else but him. Zhou Huailing had entrusted this man with his deepest trust.

He had even made up his mind to keep Junyi by his side, regardless of the life that awaited him. He trusted Junyi more than he trusted his own father.

How could Junyi treat him this way?

How could he resort to calling him a dumba.s.s?

It sounded as if he had not done anything or spent any time with him in the past.

Zhou Huailing could not stand that any more.

He did not know what to do with this man.

The guard reminded him of the current situation. “The Crown Prince, the strategist, has left the mansion. Should we take any action?”

Zhou Huailing’s mind was in turmoil, his emotions unstable. He shook his head, unable to process everything that had transpired.

This was what he had to show for all the effort he had put into their partners.h.i.+p. It was disheartening.

“Never mind,” Zhou Huailing sighed. He turned to his own guard, realizing he had no one truly loyal working for him. Addressing the guards, he asked, “So, what do you think I should do?”

Although they were not his most trusted men, they still served under him. He hoped they would offer some guidance and support in this difficult situation.

Contemplating their options, one solution emerged in their minds.

“The Crown Prince, General Liu is deeply trusted by the King, and he even has his own military authority like in the past. The Elder Miss of the Liu Family, who used to be your Princess Consort of Lord Ling, still remains unmarried after the divorce. Moreover, she has your son,” the guard suggested.

“….”

The guard continued, “If you approach the Liu Family and propose marriage to the Elder Miss, it would not only provide her with support and companions.h.i.+p, but it could also potentially gain you favor in the eyes of the King. The Liu Family holds influence, and by aligning yourself with them, you may secure a rank within the court. While you may not have direct authority, you would still maintain your respected status as a well-regarded young master. Isn’t that what you desire?”

It could be the perfect solution they were seeking.

Zhou Huailing agreed. He thought of Liu Qingqing who who was very elegant, and then his mind became filled with thoughts of a prosperous life alongside Liu Qingqing and their child.

“I will communicate with the Liu Family immediately,” Zhou Huailing declared, determined to take action.

“The Crown Prince, considering your current circ.u.mstances of being grounded and surrounded, it would be more prudent for me to relay the message on your behalf,” the guard suggested, reminding him of the risks involved.

“Very well, proceed with it,” Zhou Huailing agreed, with some hope resurfacing into his mind.

That same night, within the halls of the Saint Divine Land palace.

Rather than going to Qianqing Palace, the new King resided with the new Queen in Fengxian Palace.

It marked the beginning of the crowning ceremony.

Simultaneously, it served as their wedding night, where the two embarked on their journey together as King and Queen.
