Kapitel 1372: Princess Consort Did Not Hear Any Words

"But…"

"Princess Consort, that is the case!"

"…Yes, Crown Prince, I understand."

"As long as you understand!"

The Crown Prince had no intention of prolonging his stay. After reminding Shao Yunduan not to forget about the New Year's gift, he returned to his study.

Princess Consort breathed a sigh of relief, her hand resting on her chest. Her inner turmoil persisted, and she couldn't find peace.

"Auntie, do you know why the Crown Prince is getting involved in such matters?" she inquired. It struck her that the Crown Prince's remarks might have been motivated by concern for Qiao Xuan's feelings.

Yet, the Crown Prince and Qiao Xuan had no apparent connection, so why would he care about matters in the backyard?

Auntie Fu offered a gentle smile. "Lord Shao is unique, and the Crown Prince has a particular regard for him. He must have his reasons for saying what he did, so perhaps it's best to spare yourself the trouble."
