The King withdrew his emotions and looked at Zhou Huailing, who was greeting him in a polite manner. He looked dull and worried as well.
With his gaze on the Crown Prince, the King felt a bit more assured.
The Crown Prince seemed to have been too proud during the past few days, but after the Elder Prince returned to the capital, the Crown Prince seemed to realize what was going on. So he returned to how he had been in the past.
If he continued to be like this the King would be very satisfied.
As long as he knew where he stood and did not cross the line, the Crown Prince would always be his favorite son. Honored Princess Jing was right, the Crown Prince respected him, but he needed to learn how to be the Heir after he was granted with the title.
So he still trusted the Crown Prince the most, because he was his real son, in his heart.
When he thought about this… the King threw a slightly more affable look at him and said, “Destiny Monk is back at the temple, and I am sure that you have heard about this before.”
“…”
“I already summoned Destiny Monk to come to the court, but he refused to join us.”
“…”
“He is a very weird-tempered person.”
“…”
“What I mean is that you should visit the temple tomorrow and ask Destiny Monk to come to the court personally.”
When Zhou Huailing heard what he was told to do… he had a very strange expression on his face.
He learned about Destiny Monk’s return to the temple, and he even asked Junyi to invite Destiny Monk for a visit at the Crown Prince’s Mansion, but Junyi was turned down.
He had been very disappointed about it…
So when he heard that his father received the same answer, it made him feel slightly better.
He could go there personally.
Of course…
Zhou Huailing was about to take over the mission when the King said seriously, “I have granted you the title of the Crown Prince, and you should learn that you are my favorite son. Lord Yu and Lord Yan are both sons of maids and Lord Huai has the blood of the Jiang Family, so he doesn’t deserve to be my son. Only you are Honored Princess Jing’s son, my real son!”
“…”
“You are the Crown Prince, and the Phoenix Girl is your Princess Consort. I adore you the most, so what you should know is that there are many things that should belong to you only, and you don’t have to hurry.” The King reminded him.
Zhou Huailing thought through the King’s words, then he showed a look of politeness. “I understand, father!”
The King nodded with assurance. He found that Zhou Huailing resembled him when he was younger.
Zhou Huaijin, on the other hand, resembled the Jiang Family.
This was his son!
The King kept telling himself. Then he waved his hands and said, “Okay, just get ready and pay a visit to Destiny Monk tomorrow.”
Zhou Huailing replied politely. “Okay.”
***
After he came out of Qianqing Palace, Zhou Huailing hurried back to the Crown Prince’s Mansion.
The moment he returned to the Crown Prince’s Mansion, Gu Ruxue’s maid said that the Princess Consort wanted to see him.
However, Zhou Huailing was in a hurry to see Junyi, so he asked Ming to tell her to wait, then he hurried away to find Junyi.
