The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess

Do you love me?

He had always viewed Yuchi Min as her own little sister. She was simple and straightforward and adorable, the complete opposite of those treacherous and treacherous young men of the palace. That was why he treated her like this. He couldn't help but want to care for her, and because the empress seemed to like this little sister of hers, he came to visit her so frequently.

Yuchi Min seemed to have noticed his perfunctory reply. She stepped forward and said seriously, "I'm not talking about the relationship between siblings, I'm talking about …" I love you, do you? " Yuchi Min boldly asked.

He didn't expect that she would be so brave as to say this word out loud. Mu Zhuo Shi was truly impressed by her bravery and bluntness. But for such a straightforward girl, he really did not want to hurt her, much less lie to her.

Mu Zhuo knew what he felt. To Yuchi Min, he definitely only felt brotherly affection. But now, Yuchi Min was a girl. She had confessed to Yuchi Min naked, and she was also injured. Mu Zhuoyun was truly afraid that if he rejected her directly, it would affect her condition.

He hesitated, rehearsing rapidly in his mind to see how he could say it in a euphemistic manner so as not to hurt her.

"What do you think?" Seeing him remain silent, Yuchi Min knew that he must have felt nothing for her. However, she still didn't believe it. She still held onto the last shred of hope from Mu Zhuoyun's mouth that he would clearly say whether he liked her or not.

"I …" Mu Zhuoyun saw the anxiety on her face that was about to blurt out. She also saw the fervent hope on her face that she could not bear to hurt her. She wanted to say something, but she hesitated.

"It's okay, like it or not, just with a single sentence from you. I want you to answer me sincerely, not to deceive me. I'd rather get a little hurt now than suffer after I find out I've been cheated. " Yuchi Min said.

This was the first time she had ever fallen in love with someone, the first time she ever confessed to someone, so she didn't want her emotions to start muddleheaded.

"Alright, I am relieved to hear you say so. I do have a little affection for you, but it's like the feeling I have for my princess sister. It's not love. I don't want to lie to you. I have never thought about you beyond friendship. " Mu Zhuoyun said in a low and serious voice.

After he finished speaking, he carefully observed Yuchi Min's expression. He was truly afraid that Yuchi Min would suddenly faint or something. If she did, he would have committed a grave mistake and would have been punished by the Emperor.

After hearing her words, Yuchi Min's expectant expression slowly turned into disappointment. Disappointed, she began to feel a bit sad. After that, her expression became worse and worse, and her body unconsciously retreated backwards.

"Be careful!" Mu Zhuoyun worriedly hugged her waist.

"You, you, you, you are heartless …" Yuchi Min began to breathe rapidly, becoming more and more urgent as time went by. Just as if she was about to die, she slowly spat out those words. Her hand drooped, and she fainted.

"Sorry, sorry, Imperial Physician, hurry and call the Imperial Physician!" Mu Zhuoyun anxiously shouted.

"Ahahahaha, you must have been deceived!" The unconscious Yuchi Min suddenly straightened, then began to laugh loudly.

"You, what are you doing?" Seeing the scene before his eyes, Mu Zhuo was dumbfounded and could not react in time.

"I was lying, I didn't expect you to be so easily deceived." Yuchi Min clutched her chest and began to laugh loudly, to the point of tears.

"Good, you actually dared to lie to me." Mu Zhuoyun reacted. He pretended to be angry and was about to go over to the First Lieutenant, but when he got closer, he simply tapped her forehead.

"I thought that I would be very sad if you rejected me. So that's the feeling. It's just a little bit sad and a little bit sad, but it's not as sad as it sounds. " Yuchi Min came to a halt, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

"Are you really alright?" Mu Zhuo looked at the sparkling tears that had fallen from the corner of her eyes and felt somewhat worried.

"It's fine, it'll be fine soon." Yuchi Min shook her head.

"Then I am relieved." Mu Zhuo Shi heaved a sigh of relief.

"This is the first time I've liked someone. I didn't expect him to reject me. In the past, it was always someone else who I rejected." Yuchi Min quieted down, her voice still carrying a hint of sadness.

"Actually, you're a good person. You're simple, honest and likeable..." Mu Zhuoyun comforted her.

"Then why don't you like me?" Yuchi Min interrupted him, tilting her head.

"Eh, this, because fate has yet to arrive." Mu Zhuo said. Actually, because Yuchi Min wasn't her type of person, but she didn't want to say such hurtful words, so she used fate to comfort her.

He liked to be quiet and calm like Xue Ruyun. He had thoughts, methods, and the ability to understand himself. He also liked to plan his future together, drink wine together, and chat about the world. He was someone who walked the path of the ancient and modern. As he continued to speak, Mu Zhuoyun's mind started to show the image of a person.

What's wrong with me? I've been with the cold moon for so long, and all I can think about is her. We are friends, we are brothers, how could I have such thoughts about her? Mu Zhuoyun quickly shook his head.

"Since fate has yet to come, we still have a chance. Although you are only treating me as your younger sister now, I believe that one day, you will discover a different side of me. I will definitely make you fall in love with me." Yuchi Min seemed to have found a new direction, and she was delighted.

"No, that's not what I meant …" Mu Zhuoyun wanted to explain.

"What does that mean?" Yuchi Min's face turned gloomy again. Her expression had completely disappeared, and she was even more disappointed than before.

"I mean. This is the first time you've fallen in love with someone. Perhaps it's just that you don't understand love, so whoever treats you better will think it's love. " Mu Zhuo could not bear to refuse her, so she could only gently advise her.

"Oh, is that so?" Yuchi Min scratched her head, somewhat confused.

"Yes, perhaps in the future you will meet the real person you are destined to meet. "When the time comes, let me know." Mu Zhuoyun once again emphasized that her feelings towards her were limited to siblings.

"Alright, maybe that person is you." Yuchi Min mumbled softly, then started to laugh.

"What did you say?" Mu Zhuo did not understand her words.

"It's nothing. Then, I'll call you Brother Zhuo Qing from now on, okay?" "Be a bit more intimate." Yuchi Min asked.

"Didn't you already say that?" Mu Zhuo shook his head and smiled. It was as warm as jade.

"My big brother Yuchi looks so beautiful when he smiles." Yuchi Min looked at Mu Zhuo with an infatuated expression.

"How did it go, my son? How is Yuchi today?" Mu Zhuo said goodbye to Yuchi Min and left. The next day, when he paid his respects to the empress, the empress couldn't help but ask again.

"Reporting to mother, I am almost done. I can get out of bed and walk. I believe I will be able to move freely soon." Mu Zhuo reported truthfully.

"That's great." The Queen and Leng Rumei looked at each other and smiled.

"Right." Mu Zhuo Shi responded and sat down beside him.

"This crown prince is really fast. In the blink of an eye, he has turned into a handsome young man." "Empress, I can see that the crown prince isn't young anymore. I can consider getting some concubines for him now …" Leng Rumei looked at Mu Zhuo for a while before saying to the empress.

"Yeah, he should be given a good choice." The empress nodded and smiled in agreement.

The previous few times the emperor had bestowed a marriage upon Mu Zhuoyun, he had first pushed him away. Later on, it was Xue Lian who left because of his family's matters. After tossing and turning it a few times, Mu Zhuo was still clueless about his concubine.

The empress kept thinking that once the crown prince took in his concubine, he would not only be able to keep his heart, but also become mature and steady. They could also urge him at all times to help the empress supervise him so that he would be more diligent.

Furthermore, if the Crown Princess had a strong background and power, she could help Mu Zhuoji gain a foothold in the Imperial Court. She could also help Mu Zhuoji recruit more supporters to prepare for his future ascension to the throne.

"My son, let me ask you this. What do you think of this Yuchi Miss?" When the Queen thought of this, she suddenly stopped and asked Mu Zhuoyun.

"She is innocent, innocent, and innocent. She is a pretty good girl." Mu Zhuo thought of Yuchi Min and openly praised her.

"Yes, mother thinks so too." The Queen handed the peeled Litchi to the maidservant, who handed it over to Mu Zhuozhi.

"Thank you mother." Mu Zhuo stood up and saluted before taking one and eating it.

"Then, mother will accept Yuchi Min as the Crown Prince's consort. What do you think?" the queen asked.

"What? Cough cough." The crown prince choked on the empress's words, almost swallowing the litchi seeds and coughing a few times before spitting them out.

"Aiya, be careful as you don't choke. Hurry up and take care of the crown prince." The empress felt her heart ache as she called for her maidservants to go over.

Mu Zhuoyun took a short rest, feeling much better. Only then did he remember. He turned to the empress and asked, "Imperial Mother, what did you just say?"

"I'll tell you. I'll take Yuchi Min as your concubine. How about it?" the queen repeated.

"Don't do that," Mu Zhuoyun hurriedly waved his hand. "This Yuchi Min regards her as her little sister. She doesn't have any other thoughts." Mu Zhuoyun thought that the Empress had misunderstood and quickly explained.

This Yuchi is smart and beautiful, and she is also the apple of General Yuchi's eye. General Yuchi has quite a bit of prestige in the borders. If you accept her daughter as your consort, then General Yuchi will definitely assist you. When the Queen saw that Mu Zhuo was unwilling, she guided him.

"Yes, Crown Prince. People in the royal family have always had groups of wives and concubines. Even if you don't mean that to her, marry her and raise her. There's no need to talk about emotions. " Leng Rumei followed up with an advice.

Other than his love for her, the most important thing to do in this palace was to see the value of her usage. It could be said that there were very few who truly loved each other and matched family status.
