Apparently Li qing runs away with the other prince, probably to still get married and protected from the little shit, from what I could understand he gets really ashamed by not "getting the prince's favor" since he really respect their parents. And Pei really seems to be a better choice. I don't know what happens after, but if Li qing survives, it will be at what cost? If the only one who loves him with pure intentions is dying too? That's why I'm really invested to find the novel translations so I could decide if I keep going reading this

no, i think it meant that he wants to leave the crown prince after suffering for so long that he wanted to follow the other prince from another kingdom but not for romantic purposes ig but just to start anew in a place where the other prince is knowledgeable with when he got kidnapped and picked up a baby and became a stray. the rest is so messy i can't comprehend the entirety of it.
