Accidentally dressed as an empress

Yunxiu carefully searched through the original owner's memories, trying to find the daughter of the Grand Tutor. When the system opened her lineup, Gu Yun did not appear in the card.

The melon-eating system loves to watch this kind of fake sister-tearing drama, [You two broke up. ]

Yunxiu was filled with questions, [Why?]

The system retraced its steps and discovered another piece of gossip: "She urged you to skip classes, but you disagreed and even tried to persuade her. The Second Prince skipped classes with her to go out and play. You reported her to the Imperial Tutor, who then sent her to a secluded academy on the outskirts of Lingyun City for three years."

Yunxiu held her forehead with her hand. [This, well... is something the original owner could do.]

[Ever since Yun Lang married far away, you haven't had much contact with her.]

In Zhong Yi's opinion, Yunxiu was holding the bamboo book, in a daze for a while, and for some reason she touched her forehead, seeming to be a little distressed.

"Your Highness..."

Yunxiu looked at Zhong Yi, who was wearing a purple dress embroidered with white magnolias, and his hair was tied loosely behind his head with a headband of the same color.

Yunxiu calmed down and asked, "Is there something wrong?"

The system complained on her behalf, "Your husband has so many clothes. Is he trying to collect all the colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple to summon a rainbow?"

[Whose husband is this? My younger brother. My family is big and prosperous, can't we afford to support a younger brother?]

Zhong Yi took out the visiting card from his sleeve and handed it over with both hands.

Yunxiu took a glance and saw that it was Lin Zichen's visiting card.

Yunxiu frowned slightly and asked, "Do you want to leave?"

Zhong Yi was confused, "Why do you say that, Your Highness?"

I can't bring my younger brother along. If I do, he'll have to quit and go to another company. This pissed her off. The points she spent on training him have become a sunk cost.

No, I can't let my little brother get away.

Yun Xiu's face turned cold. "Do you want to leave with Lin Zichen?"

Zhong Yi had never seen her angry before, so he quickly said, "That's not the case! Your Highness has misunderstood."

"If you two didn't still have feelings for each other, why would she still miss you and want to come see you?"

Zhong Yi knelt down and raised her head, saying, "Zhong Yi has already married His Highness, so she won't harbor any thoughts of infidelity. I was going to refuse anyway."

Very good, loyalty test passed.

"I overthought it. Get up first and don't kneel down at every turn." Yunxiu helped Zhong Yi up.

Zhong Yi lost his balance and hugged Yunxiu's waist. Yunxiu looked down at his red ears, her heart skipping a beat. He was wearing purple, which was indeed the most lethal color.

Yunxiu said, "There's no need to refuse Lin Zichen. Since she's sent a visiting card, let's go meet her together. You should explain everything you need to say to her. When we meet again, we can just be friends."

Since Lin Zichen has come to our house, we should treat him with courtesy.

Zhong Yi hummed in response.

"The Grand Princess's Mansion still needs your care. Don't leave easily." Yunxiu pulled Zhong Yi into her arms. Zhong Yi struggled slightly, but Yunxiu didn't let him go. "What I have is already very little."

Zhong Yi lowered his eyes, feeling somewhat depressed, and said, "Only the Zhengfu has the right to manage the household."

Yunxiu said in a doting tone, "Now you are the eldest in the mansion, you are the housekeeper."

The system came up and asked, "Host, has the iron tree blossomed?"

[Shoot you off.] Yunxiu swatted the system that was circling around her like a fly.

Yunxiu thought, if she couldn't tie him down with interests, she would tie him down with emotions. Her little brother couldn't be pried away so easily.

The system took another look and saw a coldness in the host's eyes. It was Zhong Yi who, because of her hug, walked out of the study door in a daze and almost fell.

Oh, the host's acting is pretty good. The little fool was deceived by the widowed king. The system sheds a tear of sympathy for him in advance.

Second day afternoon

After receiving the reply, Lin Zichen hurried to the eldest princess's residence to ask for a meeting.

The Lin family's servants waited at the eldest princess's residence and the gate of the Zhong family for several days, and finally saw Zhong Yi. However, Zhong Yi and the eldest princess went in and out together, and their relationship was obvious.

Lin Zichen still hoped for a lucky break and decided to go to the eldest princess's residence to see if there was any chance of redemption. Zhong Yi was clearly about to marry her, so why did everything suddenly change overnight?

Yunxiu and Zhong Yi sat upright, waiting in the hall of Zhongxiuyuan.

Lin Zichen was led over by Butler Li. He was wearing a silver-white close-fitting robe and had a slender figure. He waved his sleeves and bowed, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Yunxiu wanted to imitate the domineering CEO and said, "Zhong Yi is already mine. You're too late. Give up your thoughts as soon as possible and don't have any more wishful thinking. I will never let Zhong Yi go."

Unexpectedly, before she could say anything, all the hatred was taken away by Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi said bluntly, "Zi Chen, you shouldn't have come today. I've already told you not to be so persistent."

Lin Zichen clenched his fists and said, "You gave up on me a long time ago, right?"

"The Lin family broke off the engagement, and I knew I couldn't rely on you, so I begged His Highness to save me." Zhong Yi looked at Yun Xiu affectionately.

Yunxiu got goosebumps. Uh, it turns out that Zhong Yi and Lin Zichen have this kind of... poor rock style when they are together.

Lin Zichen didn't give up and asked for the truth, "But you said you would wait for me."

"Wait? Do you have the ability to rescue me? If I really waited for you, I would still be sitting in jail now." Zhong Yi said mercilessly.

Lin Zichen looked at him in disbelief, his face filled with grief and indignation. "Okay, okay, you're such an ungrateful person! I saved your life at Yixiantian."

"Then I'll give your life back to you!" Zhong Yi suddenly stood up, pulled out Yunxiu's sword, and put his hand on his neck.

Yunxiu never expected that the weak and unable to take care of himself, Zhong Yi, would come up with such a wild plot development, so she quickly grabbed his hand and took away the sword.

This damn bloody 8 o'clock drama plot, enough of it.

Lin Zichen glanced at him coldly, "Do you dare to really do it? You're just pretending."

Yunxiu, who had been watching from the sidelines, had no choice but to step forward and act as a peacemaker. "All of you, stop arguing. I'll pay back what Zhong Yi owes you."

The system watched coldly, [Host, what do you want to pay back? How do you want to pay back? What will you use to pay back?]

"Your Highness, don't be like me and be deceived by this hypocritical man."

"I'm hypocritical, but you're no better, being indecisive."

Yunxiu couldn't stand the quarrel between these two elementary school students. "You two have been friends for over ten years. Are you going to break up?"

Zhong Yi snorted coldly, "Oh, I treat her as a friend, but she has always coveted my beauty."

Lin Zichen was so angry that smoke was about to come out of his head. "Let's break up! Zhong Yi, I was blind for so many years and misjudged you."

Lin Zichen bowed to her and said goodbye, then walked out angrily.

Yunxiu put away his sword and asked Zhong Yi, "Did you enjoy the performance?"

"I'm happy. Lin Zichen should have given up now." Zhong Yi smiled meaningfully. "But she's right. Your Highness, aren't you worried about being used by me?"

Yunxiu disagreed, "While you are using me, I am also using you, so what does it matter?"

Zhong Yi smiled again, his eyes twinkling as he looked at her and said, "Your Highness is right. It's nothing else. I'll go back first."
