How's your stay at Qui Manor,I send a lot of message to make you visit but non of my request was accepted for the past few years,even I don't know where Mei'er is nor any information about her,any time I get a lead suddenly it get dark and no way again ,have been parading same circle for years,royal princess Xuanpimg explain in tears.
Grandmother, you don't have to explain anything, I just want your support and everyone support,I must be the crown princess ....Qui Min said.
They all look at her in shock.
Min'er daughter, becoming the Crownprincess isn't an easy task,the crownprince is known for his brutal nature,and you are fragile, can you? Uncle Aman said.
I know,so I must become the Crownprincess, cousin I here you will start attending the morning court session of the crownprince, I need you to be closed to him ....Qui Min said.
They send all maids and guards away remaining families.
Min'er, have attend his morning court once but he only send message through lord Gujun and Lichen to pass message on his behalf,also Prince Gong hold some impact in some officers but I can see there fear when the guard announce the crownprince arrival and their calmness when it's only Gunjun and Lichen appear....since I came back from the country frontline, have not set my eye on him apart from the day I tender my resumption letter at his office.
Why must you be crownprince,you can be okay by becoming wife of Duke and many more but why the animal that instinct fear on everyone,The old woman ask.
Grandmother,he has to be him,I need him to do a lot of things,Mei'er is dead .She said in tears.
The old woman panic as Aman quickly help her out.
Mom pls calm down,Aman said.
You knew,the old woman ask disheartened.
Am sorry mom,I just found out the news this morning,I had her corpse dig and brought back to be buried at Hua burial ground,her tablet is on the ancestral rite table,Aman said.
Thank you uncle,Min'er hug him in tears.
Qui Min explain everything.
Everyone was furious.
So that imbecile ask them to kill my granddaughter, I warned Rong about marrying him but he wasn't going to listen to me,now see where this man land him to,She cries in tears remembering her daughter.
That's why I need you people support, cousin you had to make sure the crownprince had your attention in any means, and also be strict and straightforward in your dealings ,Qui Min said.
But the crownprince hated us most especially the Hua rong family,despite mother been his Royal Aunt,Aman ask.
Uncle am sure all your dealings has been pure since this years,Qui min ask.
He nod.
Be open minded and cautious in your dealings as always ,cousin since you are in his court session, don't side with him nor side with Prince Gong or any Prince, other Prince must hide their agenda and aim but I want you to outsmart them when initially you are siding the crownprince, just grab his attention, am sure you will see him before the banquet tomorrow night, pls my journey to the position depends on you.....Qui Min said.
What do you plan to do tomorrow, it's evident this man will reject you again as the Crownprincess,Juan ask.
That's why I need you to caught his attention ,what's your position to his post,Min ask.
Same position as a commandery Prince to oversee all.,Juan reply.
Good,just say one statement to him when you are alone.
What sentence, they all ask.
"My cousin doesn't want you either" she reply.
What!
That's death sentence for speaking out and boldly to him even if I escape death but I may not escape exile,Juan said looking at his dangerous cousin.
I want to risk it cousin,I need your help pls....he has ego,just say those line and leave pls....he won't stop you but would give me opportunity to talk to him before the banquet start ,she ask.
Alright...juan reply as she hug him.
Uncle just be yourself in the court as always, always stay loyal and not be suddenly found with any offence ,don't let them accused you or let any conspiracy affect you,I depend on you pls ...
I will definitely do my best and avenge my sister untimely death,I found some clues after digging for years.
They started discussing after new cues of what really cause the empress death and Hua rong death.
* Next day at the royal palace east wing court session. *
Everyone of official await the crownprince.
It been 30mins this man never appear.
They almost lost hope of him coming when they announce his arrival.
Kneel,bow and greet , the crownprince Mo Yaun
It's only Prince Gong and Prince Mo kaun and Juan who's the commandery Prince who didn't kneel but bow while Xuan bow go lower than the other two prince.
He enter in his black cloth,no sign of royalty from his cloth but from his shoe,sliver head gear and accessories attached on him you can tell he's a royal with his aura emitting danger.
He sit on the throne as he raised his hand.
Lichen announce for them to rise.
Thank you your majesty the crownprince,they chorus.
Your majesty,it's about your choice of not accepting princess Qui Min who was orally decree by his Royal majesty the emperor, we as your subject plead with you to pls rethink your decision, Gujun bow and kneel as he say.

He's so bold.
No wonder he's Royal Princess Xuanping grandson and general Aman son.
He's also crownprince cousin same goes for princess Qui Min by lineage.
He's not afraid of death.
What about you official from the Qui Family, afterall she's your sister, what's your decision also cousin....he extend that.
They could tell he's angry
Brother,your position is at risk,you don't have to force cousin to say something, Prince Mo kaun said.
Brothers supporting each other, he smirked devilishly as the others as shaking in fear.
Thank for your concern Prince Mo kaun ,Juan said.
Your majesty, commandery Prince Juan, Prince Mo kaun, my sister is fragile and sick always, she's not suitable for the position of the Crownprincess due to her health, Qui Xuan said.
They started whispering.
But judging by the report I heard,your sister is heavenly beauty and despite the breeze she walk elegantly in Grace, how does that say she's sick...... Mo Yaun ask as he look straight into him.
Qui Xuan fall helplessly in fear on his knees
I dare not deceive you ,your majesty...he plead .
He look at Juan.
My cousin is just meeting me yesterday, she asked me to pass you a message," she doesn't want you either" Juan said firmly.
Sword was placed on his neck by Gujun
Only sharp eye like Yuan,lichen and Gujun could tell the anxiety in his word.
He smirked looking intensely at him.
Your Grace commandery Prince Juan are you trying to implicate the Qui Family, Qui Xuan said.
My cousin doesn't classified a bastard as her family, same goes for your entire Qui Family, Juan said in anger.
Qui Xuan shut up,he knows he dare not offend him
Princess Qui Xuan is quite bold.
How dare She?
Isn't that affecting commandery Prince Juan also and the entire Hua family with Qui Family.
Isn't she afraid of beheading.
Different murmurs
Everywhere was tense waiting for his next word
