?Chapter 618: Chapter 615: Seizing the Opportunity to Cause Trouble_1 Chapter 618: Chapter 615: Seizing the Opportunity to Cause Trouble_1 The Crown Prince furrowed his brows, clearly disapproving of Old Man Fang’s words. He was about to speak when Old Man Fang continued: “Those who can lead soldiers and have a deep and cunning mind could become the confidants of His Highness. If they were to betray you one day, it would be like stabbing the Crown Prince in the heart! If they were weak and sickly, it would be easier to handle. But if their health improves day by day, over time… it would be hard for them not to grow arrogant from their merits.”
The Crown Prince listened to Old Man Fang’s words. He abruptly lifted his gaze from the flickering candle flame, thinking of Bai Qingyan’s extraordinary skills. Despite the long journey, she appeared more energetic than he did, causing a tremor in his heart.
“The reason His Highness the Crown Prince felt most at ease with the Princess of Zhen initially was because… she was a woman, weak in health, and might not survive long. It’s not just the Crown Prince; even the Emperor thought so!” Old Man Fang spoke earnestly. “But now, although the Princess of Zhen still seems as weak as before, her exceptional skills are not something a sickly person could possess.”
“What Old Man Fang says…” The Crown Prince’s voice paused, “I will remember!”
Old Man Fang hurriedly stood up and bowed to the Crown Prince: “As long as His Highness the Crown Prince is aware, this old man can feel at ease.”
Quan Yu glanced subtly at Old Man Fang before bowing and following the Crown Prince out the door, heading to the Court of Judicial Review prison. Along the way, he planned to talk to the Crown Prince about the Princess of Zhen’s loyalty.

Bai Qingyan returned to the mansion on horseback and went straight to the Eldest Princess’s Changshou Courtyard, inquiring about the Emperor’s condition after he fell unconscious.
