Yuchi Xi is now eighteen years old. Even if she is not in a hurry to get married, the officials have already begun to urge her father to get her married quickly.
Today I heard that an official mentioned her marriage in the Golden Palace, wanting her to go to the Yue Kingdom to marry a foreign prince. He was beaten with a stick and thrown out by my father.
This matter caused quite a stir.
Yuchi Xi propped up his chin with both hands and tilted his head to look at his eighth brother who was writing beside him. "Actually, as long as the man is decent looking, has good character, and is wealthy, I'm still willing to marry him."
The Eighth Prince chuckled, "If that were the case, why would Father be so angry?"
"It is said that the Crown Prince of Yue Kingdom is not favored and is extremely ugly. Here, this is his portrait that I bought from someone."
The Eighth Prince handed the portrait to Yuchi Xi. She took it and unfolded it. Wow! A green face with fangs, three arms? And a height of 1.8 feet? Huh?
Is this still a human being?
Yuchi Xi quickly put the portrait down and said, "Eighth Brother, I suddenly feel that I am living a good life in the palace."
I dare not marry her!
It's so scary to look at!
The Eighth Prince laughed, "If this Crown Prince were okay, Father wouldn't be so angry."
"Those old bastards don't even know how to pick something good."
"Our royal sister deserves the best man in the world!"
Yuchi Xi blushed a little embarrassedly, "Father and my brothers are all very skilled in both civil and military affairs. Compared to you, Xi'er is far behind. Maybe they think I am only worthy of marrying such a person?"
"Humph, if they dare to think so, I won't need Father to take action!"
The Eighth Prince sneered, then suddenly remembered Xi'er was still there. The coldness on his face faded, and he looked at her gently, "Xi'er, don't worry. We will definitely find the best man in the world and capture him to marry into your family. That way, you won't have to face your parents-in-law."
"You don't need to worry about being bullied by others and no one protecting you!"
As long as he's under his father's nose, he wants to see who dares to bully the emperor's sister!
Yuchi Xi exclaimed, "Marry into the wife's family?"
"The best man in the world... would someone like that agree?"
"He has to agree even if he doesn't agree."
Their iron fist is the best weapon to protect her!
It is enough for their royal sister to grow up happily.
Yuchi Xi exclaimed, "Then I'm really looking forward to it, okay?"
The two were chatting and laughing when a guard hurried over and said, "Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, the Emperor wants you to come over quickly. He has something important to discuss with you."
The Eighth Prince stood up and raised his hand to pat hers, but when he saw the pearl hairpin on her head, he reached out and gently patted her shoulder, "Royal sister, I will be back soon."
“Okay!”
Yuchi Xi nodded obediently, and after he left, she called the palace maid over, "Help me take off all the pearl hairpins on my head!"
The maid cried out, "Your Highness, this is impossible!"
"You are the noble princess, this represents your status!"
Yuchi Xi frowned, "I just took off the pearl hairpin. I'm in my own yard now. If I have to meet guests later, I can put it back on and it will be fine!"
Just now, the eighth prince wanted to touch her head, but he was worried that these pearl hairpins would hurt her, so he didn't touch her head.
But she wanted her eighth brother to touch her head like when they were little!
The maid thought it was right, so she followed the order and took off the pearl hairpin on her head. "Then if you want to go out later, your highness, I will help you put it back on."
“Okay!”
Yuchi Xi picked up the brush and practiced calligraphy. "While Eighth Brother is busy, I'll write for a while."
After Yuchi Xi wrote for a while, the eighth prince sent someone to say that he was out and had an urgent matter and could not come to talk to her in person.
Although she felt disappointed, she also knew that there were many things going on in the Yuan Kingdom and there was nothing she could do about it.
The servant who delivered the message pulled out a piece of glazed jade and said, "His Highness the Eighth Prince said you've been wanting to learn carving lately. This stone is for you to play with."
Yuchi Xi took it and said, "Okay, tell my eighth brother that I received it and I like it very much."
"yes."
The servant took the order and left. From that day on, Yuchi Xi took the glass jade and carved it every day. She carved the image of the eighth prince, thinking of giving it to her when the eighth prince came back.
She waited for a long time and finally waited until the eighth prince came back. When she heard that the eighth prince had returned to his own courtyard, she lifted up her skirt and ran over in a hurry. When she ran to the door, she remembered that she had forgotten the etiquette. She quickly put down her skirt, patted her skirt, and walked in.
Seeing the Eighth Brother in the yard, she called out, "Eighth Brother!"
His body stiffened slightly, and when he turned back to look at her, a smile appeared on his face, "Imperial sister."
"Eighth brother, when did you come back?" Yuchi Xi approached him.
"I just got back a while ago today. I was planning to go look for you later."
He smiled, "I didn't expect you to come to me first."
"hey-hey."
Yuchi Xi looked up at him with sparkling eyes. She didn't wear a pearl hairpin today!
Is Eighth Prince going to pat her head?
She waited and waited with her big eyes blinking for a long time, but she only heard him say, "I brought you a lot of gifts. Come and see if you like them."
"Oh..." Yuchixi was a little disappointed. She followed him obediently to look at the gifts. They were all her favorites. She looked at this one and then that one. When she saw a certain gift, she was suddenly stunned. "Why is there blood on it?"
The Eighth Prince snatched the thing from her hand, a little panicked, "Uh, I probably got it there accidentally, let me help you wash it off!"
