Inside the sedan chair in front...
Mu Weiliang: "What, can't bear to see Xia suffer?"
Chihiro shook her head: "I'm afraid that if I hug Xia, I might accidentally kill that stupid princess."
Mu Weiliang chuckled: "You seem to have a lot of confidence in Bao Xia."
"That's right, they don't even know whose person Bao Xia is, or who taught her."
Chihiro brought this up with absolute certainty.
Mu Weiliang glanced at him: "Whose people are you? You two are both mine. As for who taught you, it's you, kid."
Chihiro: "Of course I taught her. She's my most prized little apprentice."
Mu Weiliang: "Oh my, you call yourself a little apprentice? Looking at you like this, I think you're more like my sweetheart."
Chihiro's ears turned red when she heard the prince's teasing.
Upon seeing this, Mu Weiliang teased, "What, did I hit the nail on the head?"
Chihiro retorted defiantly, "Hmph, no way!"
Mu Weiliang looked at her personal servant with amusement.
Qianxun: "Master, why did you send Baoxia to serve her? Doesn't she have her own maid?"
"Don't you know what kind of people her maids are? Send Bao Xia to keep an eye on her. If she dares to cause trouble for me in Qinglong Kingdom, I'll beat her to death." When Mu Weiliang said he would beat someone, it was as if that person wasn't his sister.
That's true, they're not from the same mother. Moreover, in the Kingdom of Tianzhu, where there are many princes and princesses, Mu Xinyan is not even in the top ranks. If it weren't for her somewhat presentable appearance, she wouldn't have been able to come here.
She wasn't originally meant to be a bridegroom, but she insisted on standing out and, relying on her outstanding beauty, snatched the spot. Naturally, the other princesses were happy to accept. However, who she marries is up to fate.
Since the Azure Dragon Kingdom currently has three princes, and the Crown Prince is unlikely to choose her for a marriage alliance, that leaves the other two princes.
The carriage suddenly stopped, and Mu Weiliang heard the people shouting, "His Highness the Crown Prince is here! His Highness the Crown Prince is here!"
Mu Weiliang understood; these were the royal family members from the Azure Dragon Kingdom who had come to pick them up.
One crown prince is acceptable, but he doesn't intend to come out. After all, everyone is equal in status, and if he doesn't want to come out, he can simply choose not to.
The people cleared the street so that His Highness the Crown Prince could pass.
Rong Xi arrived at the front of the envoys' procession: "Crown Prince Rong Xi of the Azure Dragon Kingdom, together with the Third Prince Rong Mian, have come on the orders of the Emperor of the Azure Dragon Kingdom to welcome His Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness the Princess of the Heavenly Kingdom."
After Rong Xi finished speaking, no one came out. The street fell silent instantly, and the people whispered among themselves.
"Why isn't the crown prince of India coming out?"
"Yes, is she too ugly? Or is she afraid to meet our Crown Prince?"
"That's right, even our Crown Prince came to greet us, yet not a single person came out. How rude of us to come here!"
"That's right. If you don't want to come out, then go back. What's with the birthday celebration? You're putting on airs."
Rong Xi heard the people's discussions but was not in a hurry. He just wanted to see when Mu Weiliang would come out.
Meanwhile, Mu Weiliang was also waiting inside the sedan chair. He wasn't in a hurry anyway, and he was just waiting to see if Crown Prince Rongxi would come to invite him in person.
The direct contest between the two princes has begun.
Little did she know that in the sedan chair behind, Mu Xinyan secretly opened the curtain and saw Rong Xi's face, and was immediately overjoyed. This was indeed the Crown Prince of Qinglong Kingdom! Truly a dragon among men, with a divine appearance. She was determined to have him.
Taking advantage of Bao Xia's inattention, Mu Xinyan strode down from the carriage and came to Rong Xi.
Mu Xinyan performed the Indian greeting: "Your Highness Crown Prince of Qinglong Kingdom, I am Mu Xinyan. This is my first time visiting Qinglong Kingdom. I hope Your Highness will give me your guidance in the future."
Rong Xi returned the greeting: "You're too kind, Princess."
After Rong Xi finished speaking, he fell silent.
Mu Xinyan felt that there were still some people around who wanted to laugh at her, so she spoke to His Highness the Crown Prince in the sedan chair.
"Brother, His Highness the Crown Prince of Qinglong Kingdom has come to greet us, why aren't you coming out?"
Mu Weiliang took a deep breath inside the sedan chair, muttering with a laugh, "That idiot, why didn't Bao Xia stop her? She went out on her own, and then she dared to ask me to go out too."
"Chihiro, go and tell them that you've had a cold these past two days and feel dizzy. In order not to affect the welcoming banquet the day after tomorrow, you shouldn't go down and catch a chill."
Chihiro accepted the order and went to carry it out.
Qianxun approached Rongxi's horse and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince of Qinglong Kingdom, please forgive us. Our Crown Prince caught a cold a couple of days ago and has been feeling dizzy and weak ever since. It was not his intention to avoid seeing us. Our Crown Prince said that he will meet with everyone at the welcoming banquet the day after tomorrow."
Rong Xi nodded: "In that case, please have His Highness the Crown Prince of Tianzhu rest well at the post station for the next two days. We will hold a welcoming banquet the day after tomorrow."
After Rong Xi finished speaking, he pulled on the reins, turned around, and left.
Rong Mian glanced at the sedan chair and followed Rong Xi. The soldiers behind him did the same.
