The soul-transmigrating princess was neglected, and the twins beat up their father

Ye Xinrou saw Yun Muheng shaking his head with a look of fear in his eyes. In her opinion, Yun Muheng was afraid that Ye Chuxue would be angry.

So she couldn't help but go crazy in her heart, with a fierce look in her eyes: Why can Ye Chuxue meet such a good man? I have been better than her in every way since I was a child. Everything she has is mine, so naturally I have to snatch the position of princess away.

She tried hard to suppress the resentment in her heart, and her eyes turned into one full of envy: "Brother Heng, you are so good to me. If someone treats Rouer like this, then Rouer's death will be worth it." After she finished speaking, a hint of shyness appeared on her face.

Yun Muheng's eyes darkened, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Yes, Rou'er has been kind-hearted since she was a child. You will definitely meet a man who cherishes you."

He paused and continued, "We were all young when we were children, so don't take my promise to you seriously. Of course, if you have any requests, feel free to ask, and I will do my best to satisfy you."

Ye Xinrou's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. She thought to herself with a smug look on her face: Since Brother Heng feels so guilty about me right now, why shouldn't I just be a little more obedient and sensible? I don't believe I can't win him over this way.

So, she mustered up her courage and threw herself into Yun Muheng's arms like a frightened bird. Her eyes rolled back, and tears welled up in her eyes, making her look extremely aggrieved and pitiful.

She said softly, "Brother Heng, I don't want anything. You know, I really like you. I know you like me too, right? As long as you can let me stay by your side, I'm willing to do it even if we don't have a name."

Yun Muheng's first reaction was to push her away, but Ye Xinrou cried even harder. She hugged Yun Muheng tightly, as if she was afraid of losing him.

She sobbed and said, "Brother Heng, for so many years, whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, I would look at the jade pendant and then stare blankly alone. I miss you, I really miss you so much. Let Rou'er be willful for once today, please don't push me away!" After saying that, she raised her head and looked at Yun Muheng with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of affection and attachment.

Yun Muheng's mind flashed back to the jade pendant and the promise he had made, but now he couldn't fulfill it. He sighed deeply, his heart filled with helplessness and contradiction.

He knew that it was unfair to treat Ye Xinrou like this. She was a kind and innocent woman, but he could not give her the happiness she expected.

He patted Ye Xinrou's back gently, trying to comfort her. "Okay, don't cry. I'm already married to your sister, so I can't marry you." His voice was filled with deep apology.

Ye Xinrou raised her head, tears streaming down her pitiful face. She looked at Yun Muheng with resentful eyes, as if begging him to change his mind. "Why? Is it that Rou'er didn't do something right? Brother Heng, tell me and I'll change!" Her voice trembled, revealing her inner pain and unwillingness.

Yun Muheng felt annoyed and couldn't help but raise his hand to scratch his hair. He said with a slightly impatient tone: "Are you really willing to be a concubine or a concubine? Is this fair to you?"

Ye Xinrou lowered her head slightly, a barely perceptible sneer flickering across her lips. "Hmph, as long as I can enter the palace, with my means and scheming, I will definitely be able to completely crush that bitch Ye Chuxue under my feet like I did in the past! By then, who will be the princess? It's still unknown!"

She raised her head, a determined light flashing in her eyes, and replied in a gentle but firm voice: "I am willing. As long as I can be with Brother Heng, even if there is no official status, I will have no regrets!"

Yun Muheng frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of determination: "This king does not want to see this situation, Xinrou, you deserve a better future. From today on, this king will treat you as his own sister. If anyone dares to bully you in the future, this king will definitely stand up for you, but please forget everything I said today!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xinrou's face turned pale instantly, tears welling up in her eyes. She asked in agony, "Why? Brother Heng, we've known each other since childhood, and that jade pendant is our token of love. Why are you suddenly so heartless and changing your mind so suddenly?"

Yun Muheng was filled with doubts, and he couldn't help but wonder, "When did this jade pendant become a token of love? I remember that year, I was ambushed and fell off the carriage, seriously injured. Fortunately, she happened to save me. But because she had no money to buy medicine, I asked her to pawn the jade pendant. However, she later chose to pawn her only bracelet rather than touch the jade pendant, and insisted on returning it to me. I thought she was kind-hearted and wanted to promise her a future, so I let her keep the jade pendant as a token of gratitude for her care during this period. But now, she misunderstands this jade pendant as a token of love?"

He glanced at Ye Xinrou suspiciously, cleared his throat, and said, "I gave you this jade pendant to repay you for saving my life, not as a token of our love. Did you misunderstand? It's a coincidence. If it weren't for this jade pendant, I wouldn't have been able to find you. But, we agreed to meet at the same place. Why didn't you show up?"

Ye Xinrou's eyes flashed with panic, and she couldn't help cursing in her heart: "Ye Chuxue is such a scoundrel! I didn't even know that she saved Brother Heng! And why did she treasure that broken jade pendant so much when it wasn't a token of love? Why didn't she go? How would I know!"

She lowered her head, her mind spinning rapidly as she thought of a response. Her eyes lit up, and when she looked up, a hint of melancholy flashed across her eyes: "Brother Heng, I didn't mean to do that. I just caught a cold at the time and couldn't get out of bed. If I could get up, I would have crawled there."

A trace of guilt flashed across Yun Muheng's eyes: "Yes, it was raining so heavily at that time. In order to keep me warm, you gave me your cloak and went home in the rain. It would be strange if you didn't get sick." There was deep self-blame in his tone, as if this matter was his fault.

Ye Xinrou was restless, her fingers clutching the corner of her clothes tightly, her heart filled with worry. She was afraid that Yun Muheng would ask about what happened between them. If the truth was discovered, the consequences would be disastrous. Not only would she lose her chance to become Princess Yun Xin, but even her life would be in danger. The thought of this made beads of sweat form on her forehead.

She forced a smile, trying to hide her inner panic: "Yes, my clothes were soaked when I got home, so I couldn't keep the appointment. Please don't blame me, Brother Heng." Her voice trembled slightly, revealing her inner uneasiness.

Just as Yun Muheng was about to say something, Chen Yu's voice came from outside: "Your Highness, we have arrived at the Prime Minister's Residence."
