At this time, the Imperial Palace, Showaden

Qing Xiao said, "Shu'er, Chu Yubai will be here soon. Take a good look at her. If you like her, you might as well get married soon."

Shen Yushu didn't respond immediately. He just raised his hand, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then said coldly, "I know what's going on."

Qing Xiao smiled and nodded, "Okay, okay, my father knows and will not force you to take a concubine. If you don't like it, forget it."

Shen Yushu nodded. At this time, a voice came from outside the door.

"Your Majesty, Princess, Mr. and Mrs. Chu have arrived."

"Call them in."

Qing Xiao spoke to the outside of the door.

After a while, Mr. Chu and Chu Yubai walked into the hall one after another.

The two men knelt in the hall and spoke in unison.

"Your humble servant Chu Yubai pays homage to Her Majesty the Empress and Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess."

"No need to be so polite, Mr. Chu, please stand up."

Qing Xiao walked down the stairs, helped Chu Fulang up, and then said with a smile, "Chu Fulang, why don't you let the two children get along with each other? Otherwise, we'll make them uncomfortable if we stay here."

Mr. Chu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and replied, "Your Majesty is absolutely right. We should let the children get along on their own."

The two of them talked as they walked, and soon they were far away.

There were only two palace servants standing quietly at the entrance of the hall.

Shen Yushu looked at Chu Yubai who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Get up. There's no need to kneel."

"yes."

Hua Yanyue responded and stood up.

Shen Yushu looked at him and felt that his noble temperament was somewhat inconsistent with his face.

She asked, "How old are you?"

Hua Yanyue lowered her eyes, her expression submissive, "Your Highness, I'm fifteen now, and it won't be long before I'm sixteen."

fifteen?

Didn’t Chu Yubai’s transformation into a villain begin on her sixteenth birthday?

"Come and sit down, no need to stand."

Hua Yanyue responded, walked to the seat next to her, knelt down, and lowered her brows.

Shen Yushu looked at him and always had a strange feeling in his heart.

She always felt that the person in front of her shouldn't be like this.

Thinking of this, she reached out and lifted Hua Yanyue's chin, looking at him, and was unconsciously attracted by those eyes.

"Yue'er..."

She spoke unconsciously, and a name came out of her mouth.

When Hua Yanyue heard this call, she slowly clenched her hands on her knees, and her heart was instantly filled with jealousy and bitterness.

Moon?

Such an intimate call...

He even knew Chu Yubai's maiden name.

His maiden name is Mingyue.

His heart was turbulent, but he didn't show it on his face. With a gentle smile on his face, he raised his hand to hold hers, looked at her and whispered, "How did your highness know my maiden name?"

Shen Yushu came back to his senses.

Thinking that I seemed to have been disrespectful to her just now, this is a bit...

She looked at her hand being held, and suddenly a strange emotion arose in her heart, as if the relationship between the two was supposed to be like this.

It should be this close.

She spoke calmly, "I've heard someone mention it before."

I have to explain it to you. Actually, if you didn’t tell me, I really wouldn’t know what your nickname was, Yue’er.

The smile on Hua Yanyue's face became more and more beautiful, but she sneered in her heart.

He even found out her nickname, it seems like she really likes it.

"Then Your Highness... do you like me?"

He looked at her and whispered, with a nice smile on his face, but a surge of murderous intent was surging in his heart.

If you say you like him, I will send him off early.

Shen Yushu looked at those eyes and couldn't say no, so he could only nod.

What the hell, what's going on, these eyes looked at her.

How come you can't even say no?

She is not such a superficial person.

But the person in front of me really gave me a very strange feeling.

It's like she and he...

A pair in itself.

this…

Is this what they call love at first sight?

"Hey, host, look, I told you that you're wholeheartedly in love with this young master of the Chu family, and you still don't believe me. Is this what you call love at first sight? We just met, we haven't even exchanged a few words, and you're already touching his face. Don't you know how important a man's reputation is in a country where women are respected? You have to be responsible for him."

"is that so?"

"Isn't it?" Sanba asked back.

Shen Yushu was silent, and it seemed so.

If it wasn't love at first sight, why did I suddenly fall in love with her?

Moreover, she had no resistance to the person in front of her, but instead felt indescribable joy.

Shen Yushu figured it out, and said, "Tomorrow, I will send someone to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage. When you come of age, you and I will get married. Are you willing?"

Hua Yanyue's smile froze.

Are you getting married now?

The most beautiful woman is indeed worthy of her reputation, even the princess is fascinated by her.

I wanted to let that family stay a few more days, but it seems there is no need.

It's time to resolve it sooner rather than later.

"Your Highness, are you serious?"

Huayan Yue asked.

Shen Yushu nodded and looked at him seriously. "I'm different from them. If you marry me, I will only have you, for the rest of my life."

His heart ached, and jealousy made him lose his mind.

A couple for a lifetime?

How much do you like someone to say such words?

It's really enviable.

He spoke with a smile in his eyes, "Okay, then Your Highness, please remember that my birthday is soon. Can Your Highness come?"

Shen Yushu replied, "Of course I can."

"Um."

He smiled widely, kept holding her hand, and his eyes were full of her figure.

Shen Yushu's heart trembled when he saw his focused gaze. He turned his head away embarrassedly, and his cold face turned red.

She looked at the two people shaking hands and felt confused for a moment.

It’s not that the young master of the Chu family is well-educated and well-mannered, but he is also a man of great character.

Why is there always something inconsistent?

This young man in the boudoir doesn't care about his reputation as much as they say.

When she thought of this, her eyes became darker.

Hua Yanyue didn't think too much about it, and looked at her closely. The palms of their clasped hands gradually became hot.

"It's done, it's done."

Qing Xiao hid outside the hall, secretly watching the two figures inside the hall, and smiled.

Mr. Chu was also very happy.

It would be a blessing if Mingyue could marry into the Eastern Palace.

When the princess ascends the throne in the future, he will be the emperor's husband. At that time, her mother's family will be royal relatives and nobles, which will be very beneficial to her mother's family.

By then, I believe my wife will be very happy too.

...

That night, the wind was cold and the moon was dim. The branches outside the window were swaying and rocking.

"Who are you? Why are you impersonating me and kidnapping me?"

Chu Yubai looked at the man sitting at the table with horror in his eyes. His hands and feet were tied up in the corner.

The person sitting at the table chuckled and pulled off the human skin mask on his face, revealing his true face.
