A smile slowly spread across Mu Xue's face. "Okay, I'm very happy that Your Highness has chosen to be a selfish person."
[Tsk tsk, Third Prince's mouth is harder to suppress than AK right now.]
Remembering that Yu Yiluo was still beside him, the Third Prince let go of Mu Xue and said, "Come inside first."
[No, I haven't seen enough yet, why did you let go?]
Yu Yiluo followed the two of them in. After they sat down, Mu Xue poured a cup of tea for the third prince.
"Your Highness, don't blame yourself for what happened in your past life. If Your Highness hadn't saved me when I was a child, I would have died long ago."
In fact, she regretted very much. She regretted why she did not confess to the third prince. If she had confessed, would the outcome have been different?
"Your Highness, tomorrow I will go with you to the palace to ask the Emperor for permission to marry you."
The third prince had just taken a sip of tea when he choked and started coughing.
[Hahaha, the heroine should stop being so aggressive. She's talking about marriage straight away. She's planning on overtaking the Second Prince.]
Mu Xue stood up and patted his back, asking with concern, "Your Highness, are you okay?"
"fine."
The third prince recovered and coughed lightly.
“Isn’t this too fast?”
Mu Xue said seriously, "No, I want to spend the rest of the time with Your Highness."
By the way, let me think of a way to see if I can help His Highness prolong his life.
"Your Highness promised us to enter the palace now."
【Wasn't it tomorrow just now? How did it become now?】
Yu Yiluo looked at the equally stunned Third Prince and thought to herself.
[The heroine is already so proactive, so hurry up and give that showy Second Brother a big surprise.]
…
Imperial study.
The emperor rubbed his brows and said to the crown prince below him, "Mu Chen's tax reform has received a good response. You should take this imperial edict to the Ministry of Revenue and have it read out."
"Yes," the prince took the imperial edict presented by Eunuch Cao, "your son will go right away."
When the prince came out of the imperial study, he happened to see Mu Xue, the third prince and Yu Yiluo coming towards the imperial study together.
"Crown Prince."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
"No need to be so polite, my lady."
The Crown Prince looked at the Third Prince and asked, "Third brother and the princess want to see Father for something?"
[Of course, it’s a big deal.]
Surprised, the prince said nothing more, "Father is in the imperial study, go quickly."
The prince took two steps and then walked back, "Luo'er, my brother is going to the Ministry of Revenue to deliver the imperial edict. Do you want to go with me?"
Yu Yiluo hesitated for a moment and shook her head.
【Watching the imperial decree is not as fun as watching the arranged marriage.】
The prince: “…”
Yu Yiluo walked happily in front, climbed the white jade steps and walked into the imperial study with a swagger.
The emperor saw her and smiled, "Luo'er, tell me what you did today."
After he finished speaking, he found that there were two people behind Yu Yiluo. The emperor put away his smile and held Yu Yiluo in his arms as he sat in front of the long desk.
"Your son pays homage to His Majesty the Father."
"Your Majesty, your servant, pays homage."
The emperor asked the two to stand up and asked, "What do you want to see me for?"
"I beg the Emperor to grant me a marriage with the Third Prince."
As soon as Mu Xue said this, the emperor suddenly remembered that Yu Yiluo said she wanted to go and see the two of them sleeping, and his eyes wandered between the two of them.
Is the princess pregnant?
Otherwise, why is the third brother so anxious?
The emperor's face immediately darkened, and he said to Eunuch Cao, "Go and call the imperial physician."
[Daddy, why did you send the imperial physician? Someone asked you to arrange a marriage and you sent the imperial physician. Don't read the original text and reply randomly.]
emperor:"……"
"Father, are you feeling unwell?"
The third prince felt puzzled. Wasn't his father eager for him to marry the princess? Why was he unhappy now that he heard that the marriage was going to be granted?
"I'll ask the imperial physician to check on you two."
"But the princess knows medicine."
The emperor glanced at the third prince and said, "A doctor cannot heal himself."
[Pfft, is there a pre-marital checkup?]
[Father is so advanced, I wonder if he can find out what's wrong with Third Brother's body.]
Soon, Doctor Lin was brought over by Eunuch Cao. After paying his respects, before he could ask why the Emperor had summoned him, the Emperor spoke first:
"Check on the princess and the third prince."
Doctor Lin replied respectfully, "Yes," and walked towards the two of them. "Third Prince, please."
The third prince stretched out his hand, curious about whether Doctor Lin could see anything.
Doctor Lin finished taking the Third Prince's pulse and said, "The Third Prince is in good health and is fine."
"That shouldn't be the case. Could it be that the Third Brother suddenly died when he was 20, and his health was normal before then?"
Are you 20 years old?
The emperor felt as if he had missed something important.
"Show it to the princess."
After Doctor Lin took Mu Xue's pulse, he said the same thing.
"You go down."
The emperor waved his hand and asked everyone to leave, thinking that maybe the third son was dying and was in a hurry to get married.
But if that was the case, why didn't Luo'er frame the third brother and act so happy about it?
Normally, Luo'er would be frantically making up stories about the third brother cheating on her and marrying a scumbag.
"Why are you so eager to ask me for a marriage?"
The emperor came back to his senses and looked at Mu Xue.
"Father," the Third Prince recounted what had happened and said softly, "I beg your Majesty to grant me your blessing."
"The princess still has no regrets even though she knows this?"
The emperor frowned slightly, "Does the Marquis of Qingyuan know?"
"Daddy, what are you worried about? I'm here to make sure Third Brother doesn't die."
"Father doesn't know, I will tell my family."
Mu Xue spoke earnestly, "I beg Your Majesty to grant me this."
[Hurry up and help these two little bitter melons. In the last life, because of the time-traveling girl and the heroine's silence, I can't continue to be a bad person in this life. The couple I protect must be a happy one.]
"I will grant you two a marriage, but there is no rush. In half a month, envoys from both countries will escort the princesses to the capital, so let's put it off for now."
Although Luo'er could save the third brother, he was still a little worried. After all, this was a major matter of fighting against the sky, not a joke.
Ahhh, my aunt is finally coming to Beijing. I've been looking forward to it so much.
emperor:"……"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"You are welcome, Princess. This is a good opportunity to make things clear with Marquis Qingyuan."
He didn't want others to say that he let the daughter of a minister marry him and become a widow. Even if Luo'er really couldn't save the third brother, the Marquis of Qingyuan wouldn't say anything.
The two of them left the imperial study. The Third Prince and Mu Xue walked side by side. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "Axue, do you really have no regrets?"
In fact, he was not greedy. As long as he could change Mu Xue's fate, it didn't matter if he didn't live past the age of twenty.
"Your Highness, do you regret it?"
Mu Xue looked at him sideways, "It's no use for Your Highness to regret it. The Emperor will send an order to your residence tomorrow."
…
As Mu Xue said, the emperor's edict was conveyed to the mansion of Marquis Qingyuan the next day. Marquis Qingyuan sat in the main hall and sighed that it was impossible to keep a girl when she grew up.
"Dad, do you really want your daughter to stay with you all the time?"
"Father naturally hopes Xue'er is happy, otherwise your mother will definitely scold me in her dreams."
Mu Xue hesitated for a moment and told him about the third prince.
"Dad, I'm afraid I'm going to disobey you this time."
