I'm Willing to Try

Qiao Xuan bowed respectfully and stated, "Your Highness, I am willing to make an attempt."

Upon hearing Shao Yunduan mention the peony flowers in the palace, a shadow crossed the Crown Prince's eyes.

Although Shao Yunduan referred to them as peony flowers, it was evident to everyone what specific peony flowers he was alluding to.

The Crown Prince harbored no desire for the royal family's affairs to become public knowledge.

A tinge of disgust toward Shao Yunduan flickered within him.

However, the Crown Prince's demeanor changed upon hearing Shao Yunduan's words.

"What… did you just say?"

His brows furrowed, a mix of anger and amusement dancing in his eyes. "It's all right if you say such things in front of me, but let's pretend I didn't hear it. Remember not to utter a word about this outside. Matters concerning the royal family should not be taken lightly, understood?"
