Chunqin's face turned a shade paler: "You... do you truly believe the Prince is innocent?"
Seeing Chunqin's attitude soften, Chu Heng did not rush her but looked at her calmly.
Chunqin moved her lips slightly, still with some hesitation.
Chu Heng waited calmly.
Chunqin looked at him and ultimately made a decision with gritted teeth: "You are an imperial courtier, how can I be sure you won't use court affairs to frame the Prince?"
"You can choose to trust me or choose not to trust me." Rather than persuading her, Chu Heng left the choice to her.
The series of words Chunqin had prepared were choked off by this response.
But in her heart, she slowly leaned toward Chu Heng; the more persuasive he was, the more she would suspect his intentions, yet Chu Heng's offer to choose made her heart restless with concern for the Prince.
"I... I will say..." Ultimately, Chunqin made up her mind with clenched teeth.
She was already aware of the Nobles in the capital.
