Of course, anyone can blame the Crown Prince, but Xu Fan cannot.
After all, the one who led the Crown Prince down this irreversible path of becoming a pawn was Xu Fan himself.
If it weren't for Xu Fan disrupting the balance between the Princes, deliberately casting Qing Mu into the Crown Prince's Mansion, and intentionally leaking bits of information, how could the Crown Prince have acted against Xu Fan?
Could it be... that it was me...
Xu Fan was utterly shocked.
No!
It definitely can't be like this!
I am such a noble person, how could I possibly commit such a despicable act?
The Crown Prince became a pawn because he inherently had the potential to become one; Xu Fan merely foresaw everything and guided the Crown Prince onto a path of destiny he was bound to tread.
Hmm, that's it.
Someone destined to be a pawn becomes one, a perfectly ordinary occurrence. Can you really blame the client's charm for being irresistible?
Wait, something doesn't seem right...
