"Your Highness, Prince Yan, do you really not recognize me?"
King Yan frowned and looked at her, but still shook his head.
Zhong Lihui was a little hurt, but then she smiled again.
"It's okay, if you forget, I can tell you!"
"Two years ago, on the birthday of the Emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty, you saved a girl on your way back to Bianjing. Is that right?"
King Yan rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, then suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at her with some surprise.
"Are you the orphan girl?"
This? How is it possible?
Two years ago, on the old emperor's birthday, Prince Yan saved an orphan girl from several human traffickers on his way back to Bianjing.
The orphan went to Bianjing City to look for her relatives.
He took her to Bianjing City, sent her to her relatives' home, and left some silver and money with her.
But how could an orphan girl become a princess of Annan?
Seeing that the King of Yan finally remembered, Zhongli Hui immediately came over happily, "Yes, it's me, Xiao Hui'er!"
"In fact, my mother is also a great sage. When my father was young, he traveled to the Great Sage. He met my mother and gave birth to me."
"It was also two years ago that, by chance, my father recognized me and I became a princess."
Zhong Lihui blushed slightly, "I didn't dare to think about it before, because I felt that I was of low status and unworthy of the prince."
"Now I am a princess, and I want to marry the prince. It doesn't matter if I am not the princess, but a concubine. Or a maidservant!"
Zhong Lihui said it quite straightforwardly, and her request was not high! She just wanted to be with King Yan.
Princess Xinrong and Hua Lingyi were fed a mouthful of dog food.
Princess Xinrong simply rested her elbows on the table, held her face with her hands, and looked at her brother's embarrassing look with a smile.
Hua Lingyi whispered to her.
“Is this what they call an old tree blooming?”
Princess Xinrong almost burst out laughing when she heard his analogy.
It was not until the King of Yan glared at them that they stopped looking at the show.
At this time, Zhongli Hui was still staring at King Yan, wanting an answer.
This made the King of Yan so angry that he didn't know what to say.
Two years ago, he accidentally saved her. The two of them have been together all the way, and they can be regarded as supporting each other.
But at that time, Xiao Huier was still a girl with fair skin and petite stature.
After not seeing her for two years, she had changed so much that he didn't even recognize her.
King Yan looked at her, thought for a moment, and spoke calmly.
"I am older than the princess, at least twenty years older. I am already married and have a child."
"In this lifetime, I have no intention of marrying another woman or having another child."
"So, Princess, please stop wasting your time on me."
"The princess is still young and has a lot of youth ahead of her. She will definitely find someone better and more suitable for her."
This was a clear rejection. There was no intention of dragging things out. The King of Yan also wanted her to give up and change her target as soon as possible.
Zhong Lihui's eyes instantly turned red and tears fell from her eyes, but she didn't cry out loud.
The people present felt a little bit sorry for it.
But unexpectedly, Zhongli Hui suddenly burst into laughter.
"I know this is not an easy thing, and I didn't expect it to be successful in one go."
"But I won't give up. Even if I can't marry the prince, I'm willing to be his maid."
"If the prince hadn't saved me, I wouldn't be here now."
"I am willing to spend my whole life to repay the prince for saving my life!"
King Yan looked at her extremely serious expression and couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
"Why are you doing this? I don't need you to repay me."
Seeing that he could not persuade Zhongli Hui, King Yan could only turn to look at Zhongli Shen.
"Why don't you try to persuade your sister? Just watch her act like this?"
Zhong Lishen shrugged and spread his hands.
"Our whole family has tried to persuade her, but it's no use. She's determined to marry you! What can we do?"
"She came to the Great Sheng Dynasty this time just for you, Your Majesty."
"We are also willing to fulfill her wish."
This statement clearly meant that he didn't care, and King Yan was given a headache.
Princess Xinrong felt very touched and hoped that her brother could have someone who loved him like this, to protect him and take care of him.
But she also knew how much her brother valued his former sister-in-law, Rong, and his little nephew who died at birth.
Thinking of this, she sighed helplessly in her heart. What a trick of fate!
At this time, Zhongli Shen suddenly looked at Princess Xinrong.
"Your Highness, you must be careful recently. You'd better be on guard against the crown prince of the Great Jin Dynasty!"
Prince Yan, Hua Lingyi and Princess Xinrong were all stunned and looked at him.
Zhongli Shen touched his nose and then explained.
"We live in Tianyi Pavilion, and next door are the people of the Great Jin Prince, so we often run into each other when we come in and out."
"Last night, I came back a little late. When I passed by their door, I overheard the people under the Crown Prince of the Great Jin discussing in secret, saying something like 'strike first to gain the upper hand'."
"He also said, 'In this case, the Emperor of the Great Sheng Dynasty can only marry the princess to their Crown Prince!'"
"So I think that the Crown Prince of the Great Jin Dynasty is going to take action against the princess."
"Princess, you must be careful!"
Princess Xinrong's face darkened slightly.
Hua Lingyi clenched his fists, making a crackling sound.
The prince's face also looked very ugly.
"Okay, that's fine. If Montana dares to take action, we will have a reason to drive them out."
Seeing that the King of Yan was so concerned about the princess' marriage, Zhongli Hui knew that he did not want Princess Xinrong to marry, so she said, "Your Highness, my brother and I will also help. We will tell you the first time if the Crown Prince of the Great Jin has any action."
