Chapter 139 Are You a Fool?

royal palace.

After Xiao Yetang came back, she locked herself in the hall. She sat on the floor with her legs curled up, leaning against the bed, burying her little face in her knees and crying silently.

All of a sudden she felt as if the sky had fallen, and faced with an unknown future she couldn't help but feel panic.

Thinking that he might never see his father and mother again, his friends, or even Qin Muyan.

Her tears burst out like a dam.

She was full of grievances and fears but had no one to talk to, so she could only hide here and cry secretly.

After crying for an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yetang suddenly felt a familiar breath.

She raised her head and looked at the man standing in front of her against the light with tearful eyes.

She stared at him blankly, as if she were hallucinating.

Qin Muyan's eyebrows were knitted tightly, and his eyes were full of heartache when he looked at her. He walked over, squatted down, stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Why are you crying? Do you really think you will be sent to marry?"

"Qin...Qin Muyan?"

Xiao Yetang reacted and called his name in shock, asking, "Why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, you would have cried until your tears dried up."

Qin Muyan tried to tease him in a light-hearted manner, but as soon as he finished speaking, the little girl in front of him suddenly threw herself into his arms and cried even harder.

She asked, "Does the emperor not want me anymore?"

Qin Muyan's nose felt sore. Even though the little girl looked fierce all day long, she would lose her composure once something happened. After all, she was a pampered princess, so he couldn't help but be scared.

He sighed, stretched out his long arms and hugged the person tightly, saying: "What are you imagining? How could His Majesty not want you?"

"But, but he banned my mother from walking. If he didn't intend for me to marry, why would he punish her?

In fact, father, you must be tempted to exchange me for peace between the two countries, right?

It is true that he dotes on me, but compared to the country, I am not important at all."

This is what Xiao Yetang came up with after sitting here for an afternoon.

She was too naive before, but now she understands that being a princess is not that easy.

"Who said you are not important?"

Qin Muyan held Xiao Yetang's shoulders, looked down at her and said, "I don't know what your majesty is thinking, but I can assure you that as long as I am alive, I will not let you go to marry."

Xiao Yetang was shocked. She had known Qin Muyan for such a long time and he had always been nonchalant. This was the first time she had seen him so serious.

And this kind of Qin Muyan made her even more moved.

Her eyes were blurry, but she was worried that Qin Muyan was teasing her again. She sniffed and asked, "You didn't lie to me?"

Qin Muyan rubbed her head helplessly and said, "Are you a fool?"

"You are the fool."

Xiao Yetang said angrily, "You always like to tease me and bully me. Who knows which of your words are true and which are false?"

Qin Muyan didn't even know that his image in her heart had become so bad.

Thinking of what he had done before, he wanted to slap himself twice more.

He sighed and asked her, "Then why do I only tease you and not others?"

Xiao Yetang said: "Isn't it because I'm easy to bully?"

Qin Muyan was so angry that she laughed: "Your Highness Princess is worth a lot of money, how can you be bullied? And you still say you are not a fool."

He held Xiao Yetang's face and explained to her seriously: "I always tease you because I like you and want you to remember me. Do you understand?"

Xiao Yetang was startled. She stared at Qin Muyan with wide eyes and felt her heart beating so fast.

She swallowed and said carefully: "I didn't hear it clearly, please say it again."

Qin Muyan stared at her lips with a deep gaze, and said, "If you didn't hear clearly, forget it."

Xiao Yetang frowned and looked at him with accusing eyes, but unexpectedly the man suddenly held the back of her head and kissed her lips.

She stood there in shock as if petrified, completely forgetting to react, and only felt that the man's aura was so overbearing.

Qin Muyan was afraid of scaring her so he just gave her a light kiss and then let her go.

Looking at her cute stunned look, he smiled and asked, "Do you hear clearly now?"

Xiao Yetang's cheeks flushed instantly, and she stammered, "You...you...you are so bold!"

Qin Muyan smiled and leaned over and said, "Did Her Royal Highness the Princess just find out?"

Xiao Yetang's heart was beating like a drum. She looked at Qin Muyan's face, which was so beautiful that it infuriated both humans and gods, and felt like her bones were about to break.

Who can resist such a man, especially since she has liked him for many years.

While she was distracted, the man in front of her came closer again. Xiao Yetang's breathing became disordered and she completely forgot to think. She subconsciously closed her eyes.

At this moment, the eunuch's voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Majesty has arrived."

Xiao Yetang was horrified, and pushed Qin Muyan away like a frightened bird, and said anxiously: "Hide quickly."

This is the harem. If my father finds out that Qin Muyan is here, he will be beheaded.

Qin Muyan was not sure that he could pass the test of His Majesty, not to mention that he entered the palace with Xiao Jingheng's token. If he was discovered, he would be implicated.

But there is no place to hide in this temple.

Xiao Yetang pointed under the bed and said, "Get in, quickly."

Qin Muyan frowned, feeling conflicted, struggling between losing his head and taking a gamble.

Xiao Yetang couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he pressed his head and pushed him under the bed.

Qin Muyan: "..."

Forget it, saving my life is more important, so I condescended to go in.

Xiao Yetang let down the bed curtain and walked quickly to the door to welcome the emperor.

The door opened and Emperor Hui strode in. Xiao Yetang knelt down and bowed, then called out, "Father."

Emperor Hui came to visit him because he knew that Xiao Yetang had been staying indoors.

Given her temper, it was really strange that she didn't come to him to beg for mercy after learning that her mother was under house arrest.

He looked at his daughter and saw that her eyes were red, and her face was also red. He asked, "You drank alcohol, why is your face so red?"

Xiao Yetang felt guilty, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, she lowered her head and said, "I just feel a little hot."

It's a hot summer now, and it's quite hot in the room without opening the windows or putting ice in it.

Emperor Hui did not care. He asked, "Are you blaming your father?"

Xiao Yetang shook his head hastily: "No, my mother was confined because she did something that made my father unhappy.

When your father calms down, he will forgive your mother. Your father is very busy and I cannot bear to bother you with such a small matter, so I did not plead for your mother."

Emperor Hui couldn't help feeling moved when he heard her words.

He took Xiao Yetang's hand and sat down, saying, "Father is talking about the marriage, I'm sure you already know about it."

Xiao Yetang nodded and said, "No matter what decision your father makes, I will not blame you.

I am the princess of Nanli. If sacrificing me can bring peace between Nanli and Beiming, it will be my honor."
