If the Sixth Princess knew that she liked the Fourth Prince, she would definitely laugh at her for the rest of her life.
She must not let the Sixth Princess know.
"There's something wrong with you," the Sixth Princess stared at Qin Qianqian, then pointed at her as if she had discovered some incredible secret, "Ah, I know."
Qin Qianqian put down her tea and asked nervously, "What do you know?"
Was she so obvious? Then why couldn't the foolish Fourth Prince see it?
"Do you like the Fourth Prince?" The Sixth Princess raised her hand and patted Qin Qianqian's shoulder. "I just said I'd help you deal with him, and you're so anxious. Are you two the kind of lovers from the storybooks?"
It’s not often that two people in storybooks seem to be at odds with each other, but are actually a pair of bickering lovers who like each other.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Qianqian was anxious.
"Sister Xue, look at her face, she's blushing and she's still saying I'm talking nonsense."
The Sixth Princess curled her lips and continued before Qin Qianqian could lose her temper, "Oh, if you like him, then so be it. With my experience reading so many novels, I can definitely help you win the Fourth Prince back."
The Fourth Prince must be too idle to argue with her, so she will try her best to bring the two of them together. Seeing them together should be more interesting than the storybook.
Qin Qianqian looked up at the Sixth Princess in surprise, "Why are you so kind all of a sudden?"
The Sixth Princess not only laughed at her but also tried to match her up with the Fourth Prince. Is she crazy or is the Sixth Princess crazy?
"I do have some bad intentions," the Sixth Princess pulled Qin Qianqian's arm and walked out of the pavilion. "Actually, I just want to see you and Fourth Brother together. If he and I argue, just help me."
Qin Qianqian let her drag her out and even forgot to say hello to Mu Xue.
"Is it that simple?"
"Of course," the Sixth Princess stopped and looked at Qin Qianqian's obviously unconvinced expression. She patted her chest and assured him, "Really? I won't lie to you."
Then he whispered his plan into Qin Qianqian's ear.
"This..." Qin Qianqian hesitated, "This isn't good. It doesn't seem reliable."
"What do you mean unreliable? Do you not trust me?"
She has read so many storybooks, and they are all written like this.
Seeing Qin Qianqian still hesitant, the Sixth Princess continued, "You and the Fourth Prince have known each other since childhood. Since you're too embarrassed to tell him that you like him, why not force him to express his feelings to you?"
Qin Qianqian felt that what the Sixth Princess said made sense. She exchanged a glance with her and said, "Let's do it this way. Don't worry. As long as I become your Fourth Sister-in-law, I will definitely not let your Fourth Brother bully you."
Looking at the two people's backs as they left, Mu Xue smiled helplessly.
Just now I thought the two were going to quarrel again, but the next moment they walked away arm in arm.
…
Mu Xue had originally planned to deliver the amulet to the third prince today, but as soon as she went out, she met Qin Qianqian who came looking for her, so she turned back.
Now that the two had left, she stood up and prepared to go out, but before she left, she heard the maid say that Miss Du and the Second Prince had arrived.
The Second Prince always came directly to the Marquis' Mansion, but Du Shuyan felt that this was unreasonable, so she asked someone to come in and tell him.
"Second Prince, Miss Du, please come in."
The two were brought to the pavilion. The second prince sat down and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea and handed it to Du Shuyan.
"Princess, thank you for what happened with Shen Yu last time."
Du Shuyan handed the tea to Mu Xue, and the second prince poured another cup and placed it in front of her.
"Ayan, you don't have to be polite to your cousin, but what's the matter with Shen Yu?"
He felt as if he had missed something.
"You're welcome, Miss Du. We'll all be family from now on."
Du Shuyan and the Second Prince didn't expect Mu Xue to say this. They were stunned for a moment. The Second Prince smiled and stared at Du Shuyan, "Cousin, you are right."
It seems that my cousin has learned bad habits from my third brother and now knows how to make fun of people.
In fact, Mu Xue was just telling the truth, but she was usually very serious, so her sudden words surprised the two of them.
Du Shuyan did not blush because of what the two said. She smiled and nodded at Mu Xue, and then told the second prince everything about Shen Yu without missing a word.
She has always been like this. As long as she knows her feelings clearly, she won't be shy.
She could feel the Second Prince's care and love for her when they were in Fengyue Tower, but she was not clear about her identity at that time, and the Second Prince did not clearly tell her his feelings.
Now that the two of them understand each other, she can only be happy that the Second Prince has expressed his feelings for her so openly.
"Is there any progress on Shen Yu's side?"
The Second Prince's expression became serious. "Prince Yueqing has been lying dormant for so long, he certainly won't leave any evidence behind easily."
Besides, Shen Yu doesn't look very smart, can he succeed?
Du Shuyan shook her head. "I don't know. I haven't contacted Shen Yu."
She was worried that King Yueqing would notice when she contacted Shen Yu.
"King Yueqing?"
Mu Xue was a little surprised, "So it seems that the Sixth Princess's incident was indeed his doing."
"Yes, there is also a connection between Shen Huai and Prince Yueqing, but Father has no solid evidence."
…
The Third Prince had originally made an appointment with Mu Xue to meet him today, but after lunch, Mu Xue still hadn't shown up.
He put down his chopsticks, asked someone to clear the food away, stood up and went to the study.
He took out a small box from the bookshelf nearby, opened it, and found a peace amulet inside.
It was given to him by Mu Xue when he was a child.
When Zi Yang knocked on the door and came in, he happened to see the third prince holding a peace amulet, seemingly thinking about something.
He had seen this amulet before. His Highness treasured it like a treasure. Even when Yang Xin lived here, he didn't allow her to touch it.
At first he thought it was given by His Highness's mother, but later he found out it was given by a little girl.
"Your Highness, the princess is here." Zi Yang retracted his gaze and spoke.
"Okay, I'll be there right away."
The Third Prince put the amulet back and glanced at Ziyang as he walked out of the study. "Did you knock on the door just now?"
The words stunned Zi Yang. "I knocked, but Your Highness was probably preoccupied and didn't hear it."
He looks like he's daydreaming, it's strange he can hear anything.
The two went to the main hall. Mu Xue was standing at the door wearing a white corset dress. The light from the eaves shone on her, making her look warmer and less cold.
"Princess."
Hearing the Third Prince's voice, Mu Xue turned her head slightly to look at the Third Prince who was coming towards her.
The third prince was still wearing a purple brocade robe, and walked in front of her with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting, my lady. Please come in."
Mu Xue nodded slightly and walked in with him.
Zi Yang watched the two of them from behind and thought to himself that they were a perfect match. He wondered if the princess would look down upon his prince.
"I have kept Your Highness waiting for so long, because my cousin was delayed in looking for me."
Mu Xue actually didn't know how to face the Third Prince.
The Third Prince knew that she had been begging for a peace amulet for him for more than ten years, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
