As soon as she opened her eyes, she was forcibly carried back to the East Palace by the paranoid pri

The rain stopped, leaving only some water drops on the branches and leaves, about to fall.

In the bedroom of Biyuan, He Yue lay in Ning Rushong's arms after washing up, looking up at his overly eye-catching handsome face. He closed his eyes and rested, and his usual majestic aura softened.

He Yue shuddered as if she had been electrocuted as she watched, and sat up in horror. She raised her arm slightly and her fingers hovered above his eyebrows.

It was not until today that she realized that Ning Rushong's eyes and eyebrows were somewhat like Duan Qidai!

Duan Qidai, Duan Qidai, the person she would never forget, now came to her mind again.

In recent days, she has been thinking back to the past, thinking back to Duan Qidai, and thinking back to the carefree years when he protected her. At that time, all she had to do was to follow him like a little tail and smile foolishly.

It is said that people only know how to cherish something after they lose it, but she has always cherished Duan Qidai, so how come she lost him in the end?

She hadn't seen Duan Qidai's face for three years. In modern times, at least there was a photo of him. But after coming to ancient times, everything was gone, not even a thought left for her.

"What's wrong?" Ning Rushong opened his eyes and saw He Yue staring at him blankly.

His eyes were always cold and stern, but they were not like that now. No wonder I hadn't noticed it before.

He Yue's eyes were slightly red, and the emotion in her eyes seemed to carry some sadness, so heavy that it made people's hearts palpitate.

After she came to her senses, she shook her head, lay down again, and leaned her head between his arms. She said softly, "I just thought of my mother this morning, and I was always afraid in my heart."

Ning Rusong held her in his arms and found that her body was trembling a little. Yes, she had never been very courageous, and her mother was a person who only looked down on girls from the He family.

"If my mother summons you again in the future, she will send someone to look for me like she did today. You don't have to go to Kunning Palace by yourself. Just wait for me."

He Yue moved a little closer to him and curled up in his arms.

The woman's voice was gentle, "Your Highness, please call me Yueyue. My family used to call me that way, and we have been calling me that way since I was a child."

Her heart was beating rapidly. She slowly clenched her fingers into fists. She thought she was going crazy!

Ning Rushong glanced down at He Yue in his arms. Her little face was a little pale, and her raven-black hair was scattered around his arms. She seemed to be completely relying on him and was really very well-behaved.

Logically, he shouldn't indulge He Yue like this, but he still spoke, "Yue Yue."

The night was very quiet, and his voice was clear and gentle, as if it had also been imbued with the softness of the night.

He Yue loosened her clenched fists. It was really like that. Her nose suddenly felt sore and her heart seemed to be tightly squeezed by an invisible hand.

She raised her head and stroked Ning Rusong's face, looking at his indifferent and calm eyes. A layer of mist accumulated in her eyes, and her voice was bitter. "Your Highness, please call me again. Please be gentle to me, be gentler."

Be more alike, be more alike.

Ning Rushong thought that women always cared more about love, and since he had taken her away from him, he should treat her better. He subconsciously ignored the waves in his heart.

He held her tighter, his voice slowed down, his eyes and eyebrows softened, "Yueyue."

"Yeah." He Yue responded with a smile, raised her body a little, and placed a kiss on his forehead, like a pious response.

She was really happy, Ning Rushong could see it, her eyes were full of affection. He pursed his lips and thought she looked very beautiful.

Ning Rusong heard her say again, "Your Highness, please call me this from now on, okay?"

People are always greedy, Ning Rusong thought so in his heart, but he said something else, "I can call you like this when there are no outsiders around."

He Yue curled her lips, trying her best to hide the complexity and nostalgia in her eyes. She murmured to herself, "That's great."

The voice of advice from Nanny Lu echoed in her mind again. If a sinister and cruel person like Ning Rushong knew her inner thoughts, he would make her live a life worse than death. This is an answer without a doubt.

How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who holds the imperial power, tolerate such a heinous humiliation? If she is loved, he wants her to live; if she is hated, he wants her to die, not to mention that he has no real feelings for her.

So what? There is no one in this world who knows Duan Qidai, so who can expose her?

No one can peel open her heart and find out what she is thinking, so she has to keep it a secret and live in confusion.

…………

The next day, Biyuan again waived the need to pay respects. As long as the Crown Prince stayed overnight at the Crown Princess's place, he would not have to pay respects the next day, and the Crown Prince acquiesced.

It is understandable that Crown Princess He has a delicate body and cannot bear too much on the bed.

After He Yue woke up, the palace maids came in and asked her to wash and dress.

The pearl curtain was opened, and Madam Lu entered the inner hall carrying a bowl of fresh soup.

"Princess Consort, you are awake. The Crown Prince has gone to court. Tell the servants not to disturb you."

Xiao Lizi took the fresh soup and knelt beside the bed, wanting to feed He Yue. Originally, the Crown Princess' breakfast was extremely rich, but after following the rules for a few days, she became lazy.

He Yue took a few sips and then shook her head, "Put it aside. I don't have a good appetite today."

Little Pear stepped aside.

A maid entered the hall and knelt down to inquire, "Crown Princess, He Liangdi and He Liangyuan are kneeling outside and would like to offer tea."

This is the gift for newlyweds, and only after offering tea can it be considered as the Crown Princess's approval.

Xiao Taozi served He Yue as she put on her outer skirt, a lotus-colored silk skirt with gold inlays. A palace maid knelt down and put armor covers on He Yue's slender white fingers. The armor covers were made of jade and engraved with flowers, and looked noble and gorgeous.

"Tea." He Yue sneered and glanced at the palace maid on the ground who was delivering the message. "Didn't I say that there is no need to pay respects this morning? No one went to Yuge to deliver the message."

The maid secretly complained in her heart and cried out in injustice, "Replying to the Crown Princess, the message has been passed to each courtyard, and since He Liangdi and He Liangyuan are new, we specially went to pass the message earlier, but they insisted on offering tea."

"Tell them to go back. I will naturally accept their tea when the day comes for them to pay their respects." He Yue's voice was calm, but her arrogance was also restrained.

"If they still want to kneel, then kneel down. Go to the palace road and kneel down. Don't get in my way."

She would not pay any attention to the moral blackmail.

"Yes, Crown Princess!" The maidservant was told to leave.

Outside the Bi Courtyard, He Liangdi and He Liangyuan's knees were aching from kneeling. They had been outside since dawn, but Crown Princess He had not woken up yet, and no palace maid dared to pass on the message.

"Squeak!"

The palace maid who had gone in first came out. She had a cold expression on her face and waved her hand and flicked her sleeves.

"You two, please go back. The Crown Princess doesn't need to pay respects today. It's useless for you to come here. The Crown Princess will naturally accept your tea on the day of paying respects."

Seeing that the He sisters wanted to say something, the maid who passed the message sneered and said, "The Crown Princess said that if you two still want to kneel, you can kneel anywhere in the palace. Don't block the way to Biyuan."

The He sisters could only retreat unwillingly, and their resentment towards Crown Princess He grew even stronger.
