773 Marrying You (4)
Prince Ding’s mansion.
…
Emperor Wen Hui wanted the crown prince to build a good relationship with Huangfu Hao. Therefore, Huangfu Hao came to the crown prince’s mansion quite frequently and openly.
However, as to what kind of conversation they engaged in, Emperor Wen Hui didn’t have the right to know.
The crown prince poured some wine for Huangfu Hao and smiled. “Brother Huangfu, what do you think of what I said just now?”
Huangfu Hao smiled and said noncommittally, “You’re really scheming. You let me do all the bad things, and you get the beauty at the end.”
The crown prince was not angry. He smiled and said, “If possible, I’m happy to see Fifth Miss Shen as the crown princess of the State of Qin, but everyone knows that’s impossible.” The emperor of the State of Qin was not so ambitious as to marry the daughter of an official of another country to his son.
Huangfu Hao shook his head. “Calm down. I didn’t say that I wanted to snatch her away from you. However…” He looked at the crown prince.” I’m not someone who likes to do good deeds for nothing. Moreover, my reputation will be in danger of being ruined. If General Shen hates me because of it, I will be put in a difficult spot.”
The crown prince smiled when he heard that. Huangfu Hao was a smart person and quickly understood the pros and cons of his involvement in this matter. It was not an abhorrent thing for him to ask for Shen Miao’s hand in marriage. With just a few words, Emperor Wen Hui and the crown prince would owe Huangfu Hao a favor. Of course, Emperor Wen Hui did not know how to repay the favor. This was the crown prince’s idea, and it depended on how important this marriage was to the crown prince.
“Brother Huangfu, do you have any difficulties?” The crown prince asked with a smile.
Huangfu Hao sighed and pretended to be troubled. “Although I’m the crown prince of the State of Qin, I also have my own difficulties. My father treats me extremely well, but my brothers are not. If my brothers scheme against me one day…” He looked at the crown prince meaningfully.” At that time, I hope you will be so kind as to offer help.”
The crown prince was stunned at first, then he cursed Huangfu Hao for being cunning in his heart. Fighting for the throne would happen in every country, especially countries with many princes. However, what Huangfu Hao meant was that if there was an internal strife in the royal family of the State of Qin one day, the crown prince had to help him. How could the crown prince of Ming Qi help the crown prince of the State of Qin compete for the throne?
Huangfu Hao was indeed scheming.
Seeing that he was hesitating, Huangfu Hao smiled. “What are you hesitating for? Aren’t you also asking me to help you compete for the throne?”
The crown prince looked at Huangfu Hao and did not speak. If he succeeded this time and Shen Miao married him, the Shen family would be tied to the crown prince. With the help of the Shen family, the crown prince’s strength would increase greatly, and he would have a dominating momentum in the competition for the throne.
This way, it seemed that the conditions Huangfu Hao offered were not so unacceptable.
The crown prince made up his mind and said, “Alright. Brother Huangfu, I promise you I will help you in time of need.”
