Ye Yurou is a princess from a neighboring country, but she is not the most favored princess.

Her biological mother was of humble origin, but because of her beauty, she was killed early.

Ye Yurou grew up in great hardship, and because of her face, she was noticed by the king of a neighboring country, who wanted to use her to gain benefits.

[I originally didn't want to marry the Emperor of Jin Dynasty because I already had someone in my heart and I didn't want to let the Emperor down.]

[The person I love is Enqing, my brother's personal guard, and Enyu's twin brother. Because we look so similar, I always want to protect Enyu.]

"My brother said that if I don't behave well in the palace, he will kill Enqing. I... don't want Enqing to die."

[Even though I knew Enyu was being too arrogant, I didn't dare say anything... It's just... Zhu Xianyue is innocent, so I stopped Enyu in the end. I didn't expect Enyu to secretly destroy Zhu Xianyue's face! Fortunately, the emperor arrived, otherwise I would never be at peace in my life.]

Hearing Ye Yurou's inner thoughts, Xie Xiaochen instantly understood that this princess was weak and incompetent, being manipulated by the maid. However, she was not a bad person by nature.

After looking at Ye Yurou, Xie Xiaochen looked at Enyu again.

Enyu didn't dare to look him in the eye.

But Xie Xiaochen said to her: "Look up."

Enyu thought that Xie Xiaochen was on her side, and her face turned red.

Maybe... maybe Xie Xiaochen likes her type, and she will soon become the queen?

"emperor……"

When Zhu Xianyue heard Enyu's clapper sound, she almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

She struggled to snuggle into Xie Xiaochen's arms to avoid losing her composure.

Little did he know that his behavior greatly pleased Xie Xiaochen, who couldn't help but get close to Zhu Xianyue.

His Yue'er, what would happen if he was gone?

Looking at the harmonious scene between the emperor and his empress, Enyu's heart was moved.

She also wants...

At this moment, Xie Xiaochen looked at her again.

By the way, I heard Eun-yu's inner voice——

[He looked at me. He must be moved. What rank will he give me later? It can't be lower than Zhu Xianyue, a pretty face, right?]

[He loves me because of my talent. How can Zhu Xianyue, with her fancy moves, compare to me?]

[Your Majesty... I love you too...]

Xie Xiaochen: "..."

The emperor did not know that this kind of behavior was called "Puxin" in later generations, which means ordinary yet confident.

Xie Xiaochen suppressed the churning in his stomach and asked Enyu, "I heard that you have a twin brother, a boy and a girl, right? Boy and girl twins are not common, and can even be considered a good omen."

When Ye Yurou heard Xie Xiaochen mention Enqing, her heart skipped a beat.

Then it was [My dear, we have already secretly agreed to spend our lives together, but unfortunately my father intervened and brought me to the Jin Dynasty.]

[Enqing and I...]

Xie Xiaochen had no intention of listening to the grievances between his concubines and their former lovers, and his gaze fell on Enyu again.

When Enyu saw that Xie Xiaochen didn't even glance at Ye Yurou, but kept looking at her, she became more certain of her inner thoughts.

——Xie Xiaochen, I just like her like this.

Like, no reason.

"I do have a brother who is now serving as a guard beside the Crown Prince. We have a very good relationship."

[It's because they're so close that I can't stand my brother liking Ye Yurou, so I always try to sow discord between them.]

[My brother is mine and belongs to me alone. Even if I have a sister-in-law in the future, she can't surpass me.]

[My brother wanted to elope with Ye Yurou, and I told the eldest prince about it. As a result, I gained his trust.]
