n does not need a title, all rewards shall be given to the three hundred valiant generals. This son only wants the Stone Lily flower from the islands of Minnan." Ruitian Ling spoke each word slowly a...Chapter Thirty-Three

You're lying...

It's not quite how Yue Jie described it...

"Why are you wearing a veil Take it off...show me your face..."

Ke'er widened her eyes, staring straight at Ruitian Yu. Her eyes were filled with disbelief, and slowly, mist welled up in them. She lowered her head, clutching the silver tightly in her hand.

Chen Zixuan knew she must be extremely uncomfortable right now. Who wouldn't want to show their best side in front of someone they like

Seeing that she was taking so long to remove the veil, Rui Tianyu grew curious about her appearance. He reached out and touched Ke'er's veil.

Ke'er's eyes were filled with tears, she looked up at him...

Ruitian Yu was struck by her sorrowful, wounded, and desperate eyes. His hand rested on the veil, motionless.

This gaze... why does it feel like I've seen it somewhere before...

"Curiosity killed the cat, you shouldn't bully this young lady. It's normal for an unmarried girl to wear a veil, isn't it" Chen Zixuan swatted away Rui Tianyu's hand.

Now that Ca'er’s true appearance has been seen by Ruitian Yu, even if he isn't scared away, the most he would feel is pity, not love. It’s better to leave some suspense.

Then why didn't you bring it

"I..." Chen Zixuan was choked by Rui Tianyu's words. This kid, really...

Chen Zixuan Chao Rui Tianyu rolled his eyes, sighed, "Alright, I'm the bigger person here. Let's not dwell on this with you, little rascal."

"Hey, Ruitian Yu, can you take me into the Prime Minister's residence Can er's mother is sick, and I want to take her to see a doctor." Chen Zixuan glared at Ke'er, signaling her to quickly play the role of the pitiful...

Ke'er's appearance was pitiful enough, so she only needed a look to evoke sympathy. So... Ke'er looked at Rui Tianyu with pleading eyes.

"Why did you have to bring her mother to see a doctor The Prime Minister's residence has plenty of resident physicians. Why would you go and stir up trouble You still haven't explained things clearly to me about last time, regarding what happened with Yuejie! If I took you in, it would only make things even more confusing."

"You're not having trouble getting in either, are you"

"Who said that, I am the Prince..."

"Then how did I hear that a prince has been trying to see the prime minister outside his residence, but the people at the prime minister's mansion just won't let him in You guys think this prince is being a bit pathetic"

"Who are you saying is pathetic"

"I'm talking about the prince who didn't enter the Prime Minister's Mansion. Didn't you go in Why are you so angry" Chen Zixuan raised an eyebrow at him.

Rui Tianyu's face flushed red and then pale: "I... you... you can't control me..."

"Alright alright, last time was my fault. I apologize to you, you're so magnanimous, please don't hold it against me. After all, you are a prince, aren't you I'm just a simple woman, please don't keep bringing this up, okay I apologize, isn't that enough" Chen Zixuan grabbed onto Rui Tianyu's sleeve and shook it, her face full of appeasement mixed with coquettishness.

"Humph—" Ritian Yu was obviously very taken by it, but he still had to act aloof.

"Sixth Prince, you are so brilliant and valiant, dashing and handsome. You are the most courageous, bold, and charming man I've ever seen... Please forgive me... I promise I will explain everything to you and your sister Yue, alright" Chen Zixuan shook Rui Tianyu's clothes, acting as docile as if wagging her tail.

Twenty-nine rolled his eyes and looked at the sky silently. Girls are really unbearable...

Just as unbearable was a certain guard studying the blueprints, who almost knelt before Chen Zixuan: Miss, what is this you've drawn...

"Are you serious"

"Of course I'd lie to you As long as you take me in and get Ca'er's mother out for treatment, I'll help you explain things to your Yue sister."

"Then it's a deal." He wasn't going to lose either way, anyway.

"Then just go, what are you standing there for" Chen Zixuan replied irritably.

"But you brought the chancellor's wife out to see a doctor... This... even if I am the prince... it wouldn't be right... It would be better to let the doctors at the chancellor's residence attend to her." Ruitian Yu showed an awkward expression.

"If the prime minister had been willing to treat her mother, she wouldn't have been ill for so many years. Besides, I suspect that people in the prime minister's mansion are abusing Ke’er, don't you believe me"

"Master, please don't!"

But Ke'er was so thin and frail, she was no match for Chen Zixuan at all. In just a few moves, Chen Zixuan pulled up her sleeves, revealing new and old wounds on her arms, some of the flesh even flipped outwards...

"How is this possible The Chancellor has always been renowned for his Confucian grace. Even the Emperor praised him. It's impossible that he did this, Seventh Miss, how did you get hurt" Rui Tianyu's face was full of disbelief...

"Who else could it be Not the prime minister, nor the prime minister's wife, or..."

"No, I've met the Prime Minister's wife. She's a very nice person. Her upbringing in a prominent family has taught her manners and grace. She wouldn't..."

"Of course she would! Women, when they're ruthless, aren't human. I tell you, don't doubt it. Besides, you're the prince, who dares disrespect you If you weren't the prince, but a beggar, they would only punch and kick you around. It's really unbelievable…"

"Hick, what are you talking about!"

Seeing Rui Tianyu about to get angry again, Chen Zixuan hurriedly soothed him: "I'm not saying you, I just mean your status is there. Anyone will give you face. But Caier is different. She is the seventh Miss of the Xiangfu..."

Although Miss Qi from the Xiangfu doesn't have the noble status of a prince or princess, she is still much better off than ordinary people's daughters. You shouldn't talk nonsense if you don't know." Rui Tianyu looked at Chen Zixuan with disdain.

Chen Zixuan placed his hand on his forehead, this kid, he's really a handful...

"I'm telling you, Ruitian Yu, I really don't want to scold you, but please use your brain, okay Look at Ke'er's clothes, and her jewelry. If she were favored in the Prime Minister's Mansion, would she be beaten like this Would her mother have been sick for so long Would she need to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion through the back door Would she have to look at those damned guards' faces"

"En... Master... Please don't say any more..." Murong Ke'er said with a choked voice.

Chen Zixuan saw Ke'er crying so sadly, guessing that his words had touched her pain. He felt very self-blame: "I'm sorry, Ke'er, I... I didn't mean it... Don't take it to heart... I'm sorry... Don't cry, the wound on your face will hurt even more... Ke'er..."

"She has injuries on her face too"

"Or what"

Rui Tianyu closed his mouth, standing there at a loss. Why, why was what this Murong Ke'er said so different from what Yue sister had said Who was telling the truth Could it be that Murong Ke'er was putting on an act of misery But her injuries were so severe…

"Rui Tianyu, just tell me, will you help me get into the Prime Minister's residence If you don't, leave now." Chen Zixuan looked at Rui Tianyu with impatience.

"I can help, but Seventh Miss, could you tell this King how you came to be injured"

Muran Can'er bit her lip, lowered her head, silently streaming tears, saying nothing.

Chen Zixuan, standing on the side, was about to go crazy. This is really a case of "the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is!". Ke'er, you stubborn gourd, why are you so clueless!

Chen Zixuan whispered in Ke'er's ear: "If you don't want your mother to become like this too, you have to seize the opportunity. If you miss this chance, you'll never be able to turn things around..."

Muran Can'er raised her eyes to look at Chen Zixuan. In Chen Zixuan's eyes, she saw encouragement and concern...

Such a warm person, Ca'er won't let you down...

"It's my older sister, it's Sister Murong Yue who hit me!"

"What Impossible! This can't be…you…you…You're lying…You must be lying…"arriage""Yeah, who are those two"The guard looked at me, and I looked at him, then shook my head."Guard captain, would you be so kind as to make an exception I'd like to bring this young lady into the...
