[The heroine is looking for Master Changyun, so how about I bring Master Changyun over?]
Yu Yiluo left the Third Prince's Mansion by herself and followed Master Changyun. Master Changyun noticed that she was following him and stopped.
"Little Princess, why are you following me?"
Yu Yiluo walked closer to him and blinked, "The princess wants to see you."
Master Changyun was slightly surprised and slowed down his pace.
"So, let's go to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion now?"
Yu Yiluo nodded repeatedly.
[That's really clever! I don't believe I'm the only one curious. The heroine must also be looking for Master Changyun because she wants to know something.]
[Bringing Master Changyun to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, I can help the Third Brother and the heroine while also solving their problems. Killing two birds with one stone.]
Master Changyun followed Yu Yiluo to the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion, and the two went straight to Muxue's yard.
Mu Xue was very surprised to see Yu Yiluo bringing Master Changyun with her. She was planning to go to Baiyun Temple to see Master Changyun in person tomorrow.
I didn't expect that people would be brought here like this.
Since it was the little princess who brought the person here, His Highness should not suspect anything.
"Master Changyun, please take a seat."
Mu Xue politely invited Master Changyun to sit down, and the maid was also tactful enough to move a small round stool for Yu Yiluo.
"The little princess said that the princess wanted to see me for something, so she dragged me over here. I wonder what the princess wants?"
Yu Yiluo, who had just sat down, rolled his eyes.
[What do you mean I dragged you here? Can I drag you with my small body? ]
Mu Xue ordered the maid to serve tea, dismissed the waiters in the room, and said straight to the point: "I want to know what kind of deal His Highness made with you in your previous life."
[It has to be the heroine, no beating around the bush, just asking directly to the point.]
Master Changyun paused stroking his beard and then laughed.
"A transaction from a previous life? I don't understand what the princess means."
【Still playing dumb. 】
"Master Changyun understands."
Mu Xue told everything she saw in her dream word for word.
"Because I couldn't see what happened later, I wanted to ask you. Don't worry, if His Highness doesn't want me to know, I can pretend not to know in front of him."
Master Changyun picked up the tea and stared at Mu Xue, "Never mind, I'll tell you."
After saying this, he drank the tea in his hand and spoke slowly.
"Since the princess already knows what happened before, I will tell you what you don't know."
Mu Xue nodded, "Please go ahead."
"The Third Prince did indeed make a deal with me. He traded his own life for the princess' chance to be reborn."
"life?"
Mu Xue's expression changed. It turned out that she had paid a huge price.
"That's right. Because he wants to change the princess's fate in her previous life, and without any uncertainty about whether there are any variables, the Third Prince must do this. Otherwise, even if he comes back to life again, the result will be the same, and it will be meaningless."
"How much time do you have, Your Highness?"
Mu Xue pursed her lips, and her hand on the teacup was trembling slightly.
"The Third Prince can only live to the age of twenty."
Master Changyun sighed, "It was precisely because he was worried that you would repeat the fate of your previous life that he specifically asked his subordinates to deliver a letter to me. That letter asked me to have Qian Zhong bring you back to the Valley of Divine Doctors."
[That's right, I was wondering why the heroine's storyline didn't fit in. Turns out it's because of the Third Emperor.]
Mu Xue recalled what her master had said and asked hoarsely, "Did His Highness also ask you to tell Senior Brother about the Thousand Mountain Snow Lotus in Li Country?"
Master Changyun nodded and said, "If you had followed the path of your previous life, you would not have eaten the Tianshan Snow Lotus by now."
"Master has been preventing me from leaving the Divine Doctor Valley. Was it also His Highness's intention?"
Mu Xue actually already had the answer in her heart, because as long as she returned to the capital, meeting His Highness was inevitable. His Highness was afraid that she would be sad because of his departure, so he took such painstaking measures to arrange everything.
"Yes," Master Changyun poured himself a cup of tea, "The Third Prince meant for you to return to the capital after he leaves. By then, he will no longer be around, and the princess won't have spent much time with him, so she shouldn't be too sad."
"By then, he will have become a thing of the past. There will no longer be a Third Prince in the world. Princess, you can live your life well, just as he envisioned."
[I used to think that the third brother was not worthy of the heroine, but now it seems that he is also a pure love god of war. ]
[It's no wonder he felt conflicted. After all, he had truly experienced what it was like to lose the heroine.]
Thinking of his expression when they parted yesterday, Mu Xue felt her heart ache. His Highness must have been thinking about how to distance himself from her yesterday.
Suppressing her bitterness, Mu Xue asked in a trembling voice, "Then, if I return to the capital early, will it disrupt His Highness's plans?"
"It was I who brought you back to the capital early. Although the Third Prince may not live long, it is better than living with regrets for the rest of your life. This is all I can do to help you."
Mu Xue smiled sincerely, "Thank you."
His Highness underestimated his position in her heart. Although they had not seen each other in these years, she knew everything about him. How could she simply treat him as a thing of the past?
"Since the princess already knows, I will take my leave first. As for the decision, it is up to the princess herself."
Mu Xue stood up to see Master Changyun out, and Yu Yiluo also stood up.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the third prince in purple standing in the yard. I don’t know how long he has been there.
He slowly approached the group, and before he could say anything, Mu Xue threw herself into his arms.
The Third Prince did not expect Mu Xue to behave like this. He staggered back slightly, slowly raised his hand, hesitated for a moment before placing it on her back and patting it lightly.
"The princess knows?"
She has always been a restrained person, so for him to throw himself into her arms so recklessly was almost certain.
Seeing the third prince looking at him, Master Changyun coughed lightly and pointed at Yu Yiluo who was standing beside him.
"It was the little princess who dragged me here and begged me to tell the princess, so this doesn't count as me breaking my promise. The Third Prince cannot take the white jade chess piece back."
"You're talking nonsense," Yu Yiluo glared at Master Changyun angrily, "Can this princess's tiny body even drag you?"
Master Changyun touched his nose and said, "The little princess can talk so much now."
"Anyway, it was the little princess who asked me for help."
After Master Changyun said this, he left quickly and soon disappeared in the yard.
[Shameless! You actually let me take the blame. Where is the morality? ]
Mu Xue still hugged the Third Prince's waist, her face resting on his strong chest, and whispered, "Your Highness has arranged everything so clearly, didn't you ever think of asking for my opinion?"
Without waiting for the Third Prince to speak, Mu Xue looked up at him.
"Your Highness, are you thinking about how to push me away and cut off all ties with me?"
The Third Prince shook his head and said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you, Princess. I'm a selfish person. As long as you don't take the initiative to let me go, I won't let you go."
