Chapter 49 Unyielding to Soft and Hard Approaches



Yan Yue frowned. What did she mean by "pretty good-looking" and "quite good at charming girls"?

After all, she was only an eleven-year-old girl. Although Yan Yue found her seventh sister's question strange, she didn't think much of it when she saw the other girl's innocent and curious eyes. She scratched her hair, frowned, and said, "To be honest, the Fourteenth Prince is handsome, but his personality is too annoying. He's a prince, but he's far inferior to the Thirteenth Prince and the Fourth Prince. Speaking of which, I used to dislike the Thirteenth Prince when he bullied you, but now it seems he's not so bad after all."

At this moment, Yan Yue couldn't help but regret being too rude to the Thirteenth Prince because of the Seventh Sister's matter. She only hoped that the Thirteenth Prince would not hold a grudge.

He Yue's lips twitched. Was she shooting herself in the foot?

Just when Sixth Sister's affection for Thirteenth Prince had finally faded, it's back now.

But there's nothing we can do about it; we'll just have to take it one step at a time.

"Besides, what does whether he's popular with girls have to do with what kind of person I like? Why are you asking this?" Yan Yue looked at He Yue with a puzzled expression, as if asking what kind of tricks she was up to.

Knowing that her question was too sensitive, even if Sixth Sister was careless, she would still have doubts.

However, Heyue was not one to give up easily, so she smiled and chuckled, "I was just curious. The Fourteenth Prince is indeed quite annoying, not as fun as Yiduli and Fuqing, right, Sixth Sister?"

Yan Yue, unsuspecting, tilted her head and thought for a moment before smiling, "That's not bad."

"So, Sixth Sister, who do you think is better, Yiduli or Fuqing?" Heyue once again lured Sixth Sister into the trap, her dark, bright eyes fixed on her, waiting for her answer.

“Of course it’s Fu Qing!” Yan Yue blurted out.

He Yue's jaw nearly dropped; she gaped in astonishment. Could it be? Sixth Sister actually likes that soft, innocent Fu Qing?

To everyone's surprise, Yan Yue raised her chin and snorted in dissatisfaction: "Fu Qing is much more obedient than Yi Duli. He's like a good boy in front of you. He's easier to bully than Yi Duli. Don't be fooled by how weak Yi Duli looks. Sometimes he has a temper as bad as a rock and won't listen to either soft or hard tactics."

Uh, He Yue was instantly speechless. Sixth Sister, you're really scary.

So you just like people who are easy to bully?

Besides, how is Yiduli weak? Okay, although Yiduli is a bit thin, like a bamboo pole, he is not weak at all, okay?

If they were to fight you, one of them would be worth three of you.

He Yue tilted her head. However, Yi Duli usually had a very good temper and would grant any request she or her sixth sister made. He would only lose his temper when something threatened the lives of the two sisters, and no amount of sweet talk would help.

Yiduli was very obedient to her mother. She especially remembered the last time she competed in horseback riding with the thirteenth prince. Yiduli did not care about the relationship between siblings and insisted on telling her mother the whole story without missing a single word.

Because Sixth Sister was playful, Mother often sent Yiduli to watch over her, which directly resulted in Sixth Sister's freedom being greatly restricted. Therefore, Sixth Sister harbored deep resentment towards Yiduli.

It seems that Itori's marriage is in jeopardy.

However, He Yue was not worried. There was plenty of time in the future. Besides, she felt a little schadenfreude about Yi Duli's difficult path to marriage.

After all, it wasn't just Sixth Sister who harbored resentment towards Yiduli's rock-solid temper.

Heyue had nothing more to ask. Feeling bored sitting there, she suggested going for a walk in the garden to relax, and Yanyue readily agreed.

The two had just stepped out of the room when Hailan came running in, panting, her eyes sparkling: "Princess, someone from the Fourth Prince's residence has come, saying they want to invite you to come over."

Seeing her making such a fuss, Heyue was a little displeased. These maids would need to be trained in the future.

Yu Ying is calm and composed, while Hai Lan is more lively and can't hide her thoughts. Being lively isn't a bad thing, but one must not lose composure in one's actions, otherwise one will become a laughing stock.

However, Heyue didn't have time to scold her at the moment. She gave up her idea of ​​going to the garden to relax, asked someone to inform her mother, and went straight out of the mansion. On the way, she ran into Aunt Bei.

"Oh, where is Seventh Princess going?" Aunt Bei asked with a smile.

Since the last incident, Heyue and Aunt Bei had become enemies. Seeing her still acting so amiable, Heyue couldn't help but feel a chill. This woman really knows how to act.

I thought that after what happened last time, my mother would punish her severely and she wouldn't be able to cause trouble for several days. But to my surprise, she was able to come out and relax in a good mood. Apart from being a little thinner, she was perfectly fine. It seems that my mother didn't do anything to her. This is not in line with my mother's usual personality.

Such doubts only lingered in her mind for a moment before disappearing without a trace. If it were any other day, Heyue would definitely have given her a piece of her mind and told her not to put on an act in front of her. But now, she didn't want to get entangled with her and coldly said, "It has nothing to do with Aunt Bei," before walking past her.

Aunt Bei's smile vanished without a trace. She gripped her handkerchief tightly in both hands and almost ground her teeth to powder: "Hmph, just a brat. She dares to throw a tantrum at me."

Although the lady did not punish her last time, she only made her copy the "Women's Precepts" fifty times a day. However, she was not happy and felt that the lady would not forgive her so easily. As a result, she lost weight in a few days.

She was a restless person, and after a few days of silence, she thought of going out for a walk to clear her head and take revenge on Aunt Sun, who had wronged her. But she never expected to run into this girl.

However, she couldn't help but be curious and wondered where this brat was rushing off to. Her eyes darted around, and she instructed her personal maid, Zhu'er, "Go and find out what Seventh Princess is up to."

Zhu'er crisply replied "Yes," and withdrew.

Heyue arrived outside the second gate, boarded the carriage of the Fourth Prince's residence, and headed towards the residence.

Upon arriving at the Fourth Prince's residence, Heyue followed the maids and proceeded smoothly to the main courtyard of the inner quarters.

At the entrance of the main room, a maidservant went in to report. A moment later, Yunying, the personal maidservant of the Fourth Princess Consort, lifted the bamboo curtain and greeted Heyue outside the door with a smile: "Seventh Princess, please come in quickly."

"Hello, Sister Yunying." Heyue smiled shyly.

After what happened last time, Yunying no longer thought the girl in front of her was shy and harmless, but she was very happy about Heyue's arrival: "The Princess Consort was just thinking about the Seventh Princess, and coincidentally the Seventh Princess has arrived."

Upon entering the room, Heyue gracefully curtsied to the Fourth Prince's wife, who was sitting on a daybed in the west side room: "Heyue greets the Fourth Prince's wife."

"Please sit down." The Fourth Princess Consort gestured with her hand, her tone gentle and affectionate.

Heyue sat on the embroidered stool to the side, looking up at the Fourth Prince's wife with a puzzled expression.

The Fourth Princess Consort leaned to the side and chuckled softly: "Is it strange why I summoned you here?"

He Yue nodded, and this composure earned her even more appreciation from the Fourth Prince's wife.
