Chapter 91 Do you have someone you admire?
"It means you will become emperor! You are the chosen one!"
"Stop talking." Li Cen was truly exasperated. This Mr. Lu was so confident that he wanted her to become the empress, which, in her opinion, was practically a way of wishing her an early death.
"What's wrong with you? Isn't that what you thought?" Now it was Lu He's turn to be confused. In this story, you, the Eldest Princess, are the villain who ultimately wants to seize the throne. You can't suddenly change your mind and say you don't want to, can you?
Li Cen was truly at a loss for words. She did indeed have ambitions, but she had never considered becoming the emperor and harming her father... She had only originally intended to control the crown prince...
Looking at her complicated expression, Lu He suddenly remembered that this was still in the early part of the story. At that time, the eldest princess had not yet made up her mind to become empress. She probably wanted to support the crown prince and then turn him into a puppet to secretly manipulate the government.
She quickly closed her eyes, her mind racing as she searched the system's pages to find the original storyline.
Ah! Sure enough, it's not time for the Eldest Princess to completely turn evil yet. It was the incident of the Crown Prince poisoning her that made Li Cen want to kill her.
“Well, then trying to win over the Crown Prince is also an option,” Lu He quickly changed his mind.
"How did you know what I was thinking?" Li Cen frowned slightly, subtly controlling the displeasure in her tone. She really disliked feeling like she was being seen through.
"Uh, no, I was just thinking I might have been too rash just now, um..." Lu He didn't know how to make up a lie for a moment, so she quickly changed the subject: "That Nie Qing, Your Highness, do you remember her? She's the Miss Nie Sixth, whom I met at Minister Nie's residence that day..."
Li Cen nodded hesitantly, wondering what Lu He was up to.
"Do you have a way to make her the Crown Princess?" Lu He asked directly.
"Isn't she Nie Sheng's daughter? The Nie family has a very close relationship with the Third Prince." Li Cen pondered for a moment. "You mean to use the Third Prince to check the Crown Prince?"
“No, no.” Lu He quickly shook his head: “This Nie Qing is a substitute, not the original Miss Nie. She is one of our people.”
"What? You actually went to this extent?" Li Cen assumed that this fake Nie Qing was someone arranged by Lu He, and was shocked by Lu He's ability to orchestrate events.
"Huh?" Lu He opened her mouth, wanting to explain but not knowing how. She couldn't very well say that Nie Qing was actually An Daohe's daughter, An Linqing, could she? After all, she had already acknowledged An Linqing's identity with Chao Huaiyuan, so how could she give that identity to someone else?
Although she now claims to be Mr. Lu everywhere, Chao Huaiyuan simply assumes she's trying to hide her identity and doesn't suspect anything.
"Hahahaha, well," Lu He could only scratch his head and acknowledge the identity of the person who set up the chessboard, "Your Highness, in short, Nie Qing now has a grudge against the Third Prince Li Yun, and she is determined to bring down the Third Prince."
“Alright, I will try to get Guangqi to take her into the Eastern Palace, but I can’t guarantee that she will be the Crown Princess…” Li Cen pondered for a moment and then promised after some thought.
Sending someone to the Crown Prince's side is not an easy task, as the Crown Prince does not fully trust her yet.
"By the way, Your Highness, do you... have someone you admire?" Lu He asked, her innocent yet gossipy eyes like a pool of clear water.
"Huh?" Li Cen, who had just been pondering other people's marriage prospects, was taken aback when the question was suddenly directed at her.
Her slightly lowered eyes gazed at Lu He, as light and pure as morning dew. In that instant, Li Cen revealed the charm a young girl should have.
She finally realized that the two of them were now too close, close enough to smell each other's scent.
She blushed.
"Your Highness?" Seeing that she was standing still and not speaking, Lu He asked with concern, "What's wrong? Your face is so red. Are you feeling unwell?"
“…Perhaps it’s too hot inside the hall…” Li Cen concealed the fleeting strange feeling in his heart and quietly moved a step away.
"So, is that so?" Lu He pressed on again, unwilling to give up.
"What is it?" Li Cen wanted to avoid this question that made her uncomfortable.
"The person you admire?" Lu He wasn't oblivious to Li Cen's awkwardness, but she had to ask clearly.
Moreover, judging from the way the eldest princess is, it's unlikely that she has no one in her heart at all. So what will happen to Chao Huaiyuan? Can he still be the prince consort?
This matter is really important. Lu He hurriedly took a step forward, wanting to get Li Cen's answer.
