Marquis Qingyuan sighed and looked at Mu Xue's determined expression.
"I haven't said anything yet, how did Xue'er know and disobey me?"
Mu Xue raised her lips and smiled, "Daddy agreed."
"As long as you are happy now, Daddy respects your choice."
How could he not know what his daughter was thinking? Regardless of whether the Third Prince acted like this because of his daughter, even if it wasn't, he wouldn't stop her. His daughter had finally made up her mind, so let her have her wish.
At worst, I can just wait until the third prince leaves and then take my daughter back.
"Thank you, Dad."
After returning to the courtyard from the main hall, Mu Xue had not yet sat down when she heard the maid say that Qin Qianqian and others were coming.
Mu Xue knew without hesitation that they were here because of the imperial decree granting marriage, so she asked the maid to invite them in.
"Sister Xue, you are truly amazing! I thought Sister Yan and the Second Prince would get married before you, but I didn't expect you to be so quick."
Qin Qianqian and others walked in. Mu Xue asked them to sit down and just smiled without saying anything.
The Sixth Princess took the tea offered by the maid and jokingly said, "Sister Xue, could it be that you heard that the other two countries are sending princesses for marriage and are worried that our Third Prince will be snatched away? That's why you're so anxious."
[It's really not because of this. The heroine just wants to spend the rest of her time with the Third Prince.]
The Sixth Princess listened to Yu Yiluo's thoughts and paused while drinking tea.
The rest of the time?
Is the third brother dying?
That’s not right. Wasn’t he still alive and kicking when I saw him at the Du Mansion? Could this be another of the plots that Luo’er told me?
"Indeed, the Third Prince is so eye-catching, it's very likely that he will be noticed. I heard that the women of the Qiang Kingdom are very open-minded and don't mince words when they see someone they like."
Qin Qianqian followed suit and did not notice anything unusual about Mu Xue.
[The princess of the Qiang Kingdom belongs to my uncle, so she wouldn't be attracted to my third brother.]
Yang Xin and Du Shuyan were more observant and noticed that Mu Xue was acting strangely when they entered the room. Now, seeing that Mu Xue was still smiling even though they were joking with each other, but the smile did not show in her eyes, they began to wonder if something had happened.
"Princess, has something happened?"
Du Shuyan said softly, "Don't keep it to yourself if you have any problems. Tell us and we can find a solution together."
Mu Xue shook her head, "It's okay."
She would find a way to deal with the Third Prince's matter, so there was no need to let them worry about it. Besides, this matter could be big or small. The envoys from the two countries would arrive in Beijing in half a month, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
Seeing that she was unwilling to talk, Du Shuyan stopped asking.
"Luo'er, whatever fruit do you want to eat, I'll peel it for you."
The Sixth Princess was originally immersed in Yu Yiluo's thoughts, but upon hearing this, she stared at Qin Qianqian with wide eyes.
"What's your name, Luo'er?"
Qin Qianqian raised her chin and said, "Luo'er, Luo'er asked me to call you that. Don't worry, after I get married to the Fourth Prince, you can also call me sister."
"You haven't gotten married yet."
The Sixth Princess took a banana and peeled it vigorously, "I won't call you sister."
"You can call me the Emperor's sister-in-law."
Sixth Princess: “…”
"You and the Fourth Brother are a perfect match, both are so shameless."
Qin Qianqian smiled even more happily after hearing what she said, and nodded in agreement.
"I think so too. It's not like the Sixth Princess just realized how thick-skinned I am after knowing me for the first time."
"Aren't you worried that a princess might choose the fourth brother?"
The Sixth Princess didn't want to see her so proud, so she deliberately said, "But there are two princesses. Second brother has Sister Shuyan, Third brother has Sister Xue, and you and Fourth brother haven't been granted marriage yet."
Qin Qianqian stood up suddenly and asked, "How about I go and ask the Emperor to grant me a marriage right now, and get married tomorrow?"
Although she knew that the chances of the Fourth Prince being chosen were slim, if the princesses of the other two countries were blind and chose to take a fancy to the Fourth Prince, who would she cry to then?
"Just kidding."
The Sixth Princess grabbed her and said, "Those two princesses wouldn't be so blind as to choose the Fourth Prince. Besides, there are ministers to choose from."
Qin Qianqian sat back in her chair and said seriously, "What if they choose it?"
Mu Xue burst out laughing.
"The Sixth Princess was just teasing you, but you took it seriously? Don't worry, the Fourth Prince will definitely not be chosen."
The princesses of the two countries coming to marry may not be simple, and they will naturally understand the value of each prince first.
"That's good."
Qin Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I heard that Brother Mu has become the Minister of Revenue. Does this count as a double celebration for the Mu family today?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Xin lowered her eyes, and her hand holding the tea paused slightly, then quickly recovered.
"Qin Qianqian."
The Sixth Princess winked at Qin Qianqian, and Qin Qianqian then remembered that Yang Xin was present and stopped talking in embarrassment.
"Princess, I have something else to do, so I'll go back home first."
Yang Xin stood up, but heard Mu Xue say, "Miss Yang, please stay for now. I have something I want to talk to you about in private."
"I came to see Sister Xue to ask for a prescription."
The Sixth Princess remembered the important matter and spoke quickly.
"Recipe? What recipe?"
"Is there a recipe that can make this area bigger?" The Sixth Princess pointed at her breasts. "Is there one?"
Qin Qianqian burst into laughter at the side, "Sixth Princess, why do you suddenly want this recipe?"
The Sixth Princess glared at her and said, "Qin Qianqian, what are you thinking? I owe someone a favor and I'm giving it to them."
"Who is it?"
"Yan Min'er, I said it wasn't my request, but she helped me, so I promised her to repay her favor."
[Hahaha, Sixth Princess, don't be so cute. Red Clothes is a grown man, and if he gets really drunk, what will happen?]
[However, I don't know when the two of them met.]
Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Qin Qianqian put away her smile and said, "Okay."
"Sister Xue, do you have any?"
The Sixth Princess thought to herself that she had done what she said, and it all depended on whether he dared to drink it.
Mu Xue nodded, ordered the maid to bring pen and paper, wrote down the prescription and handed it to the Sixth Princess.
"Take this medicine according to the prescription and drink it twice a day."
After getting the prescription, the Sixth Princess took Yu Yiluo away.
Suddenly, only Yang Xin and Mu Xue were left in the room, and even the maids were sent out.
"My lady, do you have anything to tell me?"
Yang Xin asked nervously, holding the handkerchief in her hand.
Seeing her like this, Mu Xue said softly, "Miss Yang, relax a little. Just treat it as a chat."
"good."
"I know what happened to Miss Yang."
As soon as these words were spoken, Yang Xin's hand holding the handkerchief suddenly tightened, and she looked up at Mu Xue.
"I've met that person before, so I know that this is not what you want."
The grievances that had been suppressed in my heart for some time were vented at this moment, and tears flowed down my eyes to my chin.
Yang Xin turned aside to wipe her tears and whispered, "Everything is a foregone conclusion. Even if it's not what I want, I have to bear the consequences. I'm already very happy that Uncle Mu and Aunt Mu don't blame me."
