152 No One Moved His Heart, But There Was One Who Was Moved By Him
“Your Highness, the young prince’s health is weak, so there are changes in his condition.” The old nanny beside the empress dowager advised.
“It’s pitiful that this child is so young, yet he has to suffer such hardship.” The empress dowager sighed.
“Don’t worry, Your Highness. Han’er is fine.” Rong Zhan said.
The empress dowager’s face was full of worry. She looked at Rong Zhan and said, “In the end, it’s all because you, as a father, don’t care. You’re usually busy and don’t have time to accompany Han’er in the regent prince’s manor. You should find someone to take care of him often.”
Rong Zhan did not seem to understand the hidden meaning in the empress dowager’s words. His tone was calm. “Don’t worry, Your Highness. The maids in the house are taking good care of him.”
“If they are really good, will Han’er still fall ill? Stop pretending. I want you to marry a princess and help you take care of everything in the house. Although your grandfather has his eyes on the young lady of the Qu family, I heard that Han’er doesn’t like her,” the empress dowager said worriedly.
“Qu Lianyu is only responsible for taking care of grandfather. It’s enough that grandfather likes her,” Rong Zhan said coldly.
The empress dowager had originally hoped that Rong Zhan would have some interest in Qu Lianyu, but seeing Rong Zhan’s expressionless face, she guessed that there was no hope. “Look at you. You already have a son, but how can you not have someone by your side who knows can take care of everything? If you like any girl, then tell me. No matter what family she comes from, even if she is a girl from an ordinary family, I will grant you a marriage as long as you’re willing.”
The old maidservants beside the empress dowager could not help but sigh when they saw this.
The empress dowager always said these words to the prince every time she saw him. The prince was really patient with her and always delayed the matter.
“Now that the court is in turmoil, I have no intention of being in love,” Rong Zhan replied coldly.
As expected, hearing Rong Zhan’s reply, the empress dowager’s eyes were filled with depression. “Don’t you have any girl by your side that can move your heart?”
Rong Zhan shook his head subconsciously, but Gu Qingxue’s figure suddenly flashed before his eyes.
Subconsciously, he tightened his grip on Gu Qingxue’s handkerchief in his sleeves, and Rong Zhan fell silent for a moment.
The empress dowager looked at Rong Zhan in surprise.
Every time she saw Rong Zhan, she would ask the same question, and this was the first time she had seen him waver!
Rong Zhan saw the expectant look on the empress dowager’s face, and finally shook his head, “No.”
There was nothing that moved him, but there was one who was moved by him.
The empress dowager’s heart filled with anticipation turned into depression, she shook her head angrily, “Forget it, I shouldn’t have held any hope for you. It’s just that I want to remind you that if you have a girl that you like, you must seize the opportunity. lest one day, if you are not careful, she will be snatched away by others.”
“No.” After Rong Zhan said that, he saw the empress dowager getting excited again, so he continued indifferently, “I won’t have such thoughts.”
This time, the empress dowager was completely dejected. She lowered her head helplessly and continued to eat.
After dinner, Rong Zhan left the palace and returned to the manor. He went to the Bitang Residence.
As soon as he pushed open the door, Rong Zhan smelled the fragrance of meat in the air.
Rong Han was sitting on the bed, but when he heard the door open, he immediately hid under the blanket sneakily. “Who is it?”
“Han’er, what are you hiding?” Rong Zhan walked over with large strides and narrowed his eyes as he asked Rong Han.
Rong Han quietly averted her gaze and put on a guilty look. “No, it’s nothing. Father, why are you back so early today?”
“Take it out, or I will lift your blanket.” Rong Zhan saw that Rong Han was lying on the bed in an extremely unnatural position, and knew that he must have hidden something under the blanket.
Rong Han pouted and pulled the blanket tightly.
