Oops, the princess is surrounded by the male protagonists
Chapter 13 Let’s Be Good Friends
"Your Highness, I am a servant in the residence of the Minister of Rites. My wife earnestly hopes that you will honor us with the honor of attending the poetry gathering tomorrow and sharing this elegant occasion with the other scholars."
"Thank you, Madam, for your kind invitation. However, I am currently busy treating patients and cannot spare the time."
"Your Highness, my young lady has long admired your talent and has specially prepared a tea party, hoping that you will come."
"Thank you for your lady's kindness, but I'm busy selecting herbs right now, so I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint her."
"Your Highness..."
These days, Bai Yue has been extremely busy. She has to provide meticulous treatment to the people who seek medical treatment, and also deal with various sudden banquets from the martial nobles.
And on this day, just as she was about to reject the invitation of a certain nobleman again, a pleasant male voice suddenly sounded.
"If your family doesn't mind, I would like to attend the banquet in place of the Crown Princess."
"His Royal Highness?"
Bai Yue was shocked to see Xiaoyi pushing Yun Qingchen slowly to the door of the hostage house.
"Your Highness, why did you come out in person?"
Bai Yue hurried forward and asked with concern, while the other party looked at her with a smile, his eyes full of tenderness.
"I heard that the Crown Princess works day and night, busy curing illnesses and saving lives, so I specially asked Xiaoyi to stew ginseng soup, hoping it would nourish your body."
"Um, thank you very much, Your Highness!"
Bai Yue didn't expect that Yun Qingchen, who had a negative impression of her, would actually think of her. She couldn't help but smile and thank him.
"Speaking of the previous topic, I'd like to ask if I'd be honored enough to attend the banquet at the Baron's mansion in his place of the Crown Princess."
Prince Chenyun looked at the servant of the Baron's Mansion and asked.
"I'm afraid I'll have to go back and ask my master. Since the Crown Princess is busy, I won't bother her anymore!"
The servant of the Baron's Mansion had never expected to meet Prince Chenyun. After greeting him, he hurried away.
"Oh, isn't that the peerless husband the Fairy Lady was talking about? He's really just as she said, a handsome and extraordinary man!"
An auntie who was setting up a stall saw Yun Qingchen and couldn't help but said to others
"Hey, you...you actually had a conversation with the Fairy Queen?"
"Haha, of course! Back then, the Fairy Lady often came to our house to buy groceries, and she would even help me carry them!"
"The Fairy Lady can also carry vegetables?"
"Yes, back then the Fairy Lady called herself Miss White and would often appear in our market. She always had a smile on her face when she bought groceries and she would often help all of us."
"We saw how good she was and wanted to introduce her to a good family, but the fairy told us that she was already married, and her husband was as perfect as the fairy in the sky!"
"Ahem, Aunt Wang, let's just focus on selling vegetables and stop talking about the past!"
Bai Yue coughed awkwardly. After all, she had said that just to politely decline everyone's kindness.
But today, Yun Qingchen actually heard what he said. Thinking about it carefully, it’s still a little embarrassing.
"Look, the Fairy Lady calls me Aunt Wang, which means what I said is definitely not a lie!"
"Let me tell you, the Fairy Lady treats her husband very well. She always buys the freshest vegetables, saying that her husband has a picky palate and can't eat anything that's not good..."
"Auntie, don't make up for it at this time!"
Bai Yue looked at Aunt Wang, who was chatting with everyone more and more happily, with a smile on her face. Then, just as she was about to explain to Yun Qingchen, she saw that he had already returned to the mansion in his wheelchair alone.
"Xiaoyi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not angry, is he? The reason I said that is actually..."
Bai Yue thought Yun Qingchen was angry because she said that outside, so she quickly explained to Xiaoyi.
"The reason His Highness wants to attend the banquet of the martial nobles in your place today is because he is worried that if you always refuse invitations from those martial nobles, people will misunderstand you as arrogant, which is not good for your reputation!"
"what?"
"My prince is not a heartless person, so I hope you can be nicer to His Royal Highness and give him some time..."
Xiaoyi bowed to Bai Yue and left.
"what does it mean?"
Bai Yue was completely confused by Yun Qingchen and Xiaoyi's actions, and because Xiao 1 in her mind had no information to report, she could only think anxiously about what she should do to make her mission partner happy.
At night, Yun Qingchen sat by the window in the study, flipping through the pages of the book in his hand anxiously. Just as he was immersed in his own thoughts, there was a gentle knock on the study door, as if a breeze was blowing across the quiet lake.
"come in."
Yun Qingchen nodded slightly, thinking that it was Xiaoyi bringing hot tea as usual, so he didn't look up.
"Your Highness, I haven't cooked for you lately because I've been busy. I just made a few side dishes in the kitchen. If you don't mind, you can have them as a midnight snack!"
In the mood to please her little friend, Bai Yue happily walked into the study with the food box, but when Yun Qingchen saw her, his expression suddenly became solemn and his voice unconsciously rose.
"Who let you in? Get out right now!"
Bai Yue was stunned by the sudden scolding. She blinked and asked innocently.
"Huh? Didn't you let me in?"
At this moment, her eyes inadvertently swept across the walls and desks of the study, only to see that they were covered with scrolls. Each painting depicted the same woman, and both her expressions and movements were lifelike. Her delicate features and lively expressions revealed the painter's deep attachment to her.
"This should be my second sister, right? It seems that she is truly the beloved of His Royal Highness Crown Prince Chenyun!"
Bai Yue looked at the woman in the painting and couldn't help but sigh. She thought to herself, this woman is indeed as beautiful as a fairy in the sky. No wonder Yun Qingchen is so in love with her.
"Player, can you please be more creative? The hero in your game is obsessed with other women every day. Aren't you angry?"
Bai Yue was amused by Xiao 1's sudden words, and she replied with a smile.
"Well, I'm not angry."
Her relaxed attitude left Xiao 1 speechless, and he could only angrily yell that he was going to shut himself off again.
At this moment, Yun Qingchen was like a mortal stripped of all glory, and he said in a trembling voice.
"Princess Baiyue, I know I shouldn't do this. I'm obviously married to you, but Ling'er is always in my heart. I really can't let her go."
The secret was ruthlessly revealed, and Yun Qingchen was like a dewdrop dried by the sun. He covered his face painfully, as if trying to calm the waves in his heart.
If Bai Yue was still the same willful and capricious woman, he might not feel as guilty as he does now.
But during this period of time, the other party seemed to have been reborn. Her every move became so different. Sometimes Yun Qingchen just watched her from afar, and couldn't help feeling a moment of agitation in his heart.
This was undoubtedly a double betrayal for him - in reality, he betrayed his marriage with Bai Yue, and emotionally, he betrayed his unwavering love for Bai Ling.
"Oh, it's no big deal. If you still admire my sister, then just continue to admire her."
When Bai Yue heard that Yun Qingchen was upset about this kind of thing, she said indifferently.
"But, I've already married you, I should be responsible for you and treat you well!"
Yun Qingchen raised his head, his eyes full of disbelief.
Bai Yue looked at his painful expression and couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in her heart. She walked over and sat down opposite him and asked softly.
"Then, Your Highness, let me ask you, were you truly sincere when you married me?"
Yun Qingchen was speechless by this question. He hesitated for a moment and finally confessed his feelings.
"I... I originally only wanted to spend my life with Ling'er. When I found out I was marrying you, I... I was also surprised."
"So, from the beginning to the end, you have always loved my sister, right? Your heart has never changed."
Bai Yue looked at Yun Qingchen and said firmly, the subtext being that you didn't do anything wrong and you don't need to feel guilty.
Yun Qingchen was silent for a moment, and finally answered
However, his answer lacked confidence, and there was a hint of hesitation and struggle in his eyes.
"Then hurry up and get your leg healed, and then we'll return to Wenqu Kingdom together. By then, you'll still be the renowned Prince Chenyun, and you and my sister can live happily together forever!"
Bai Yue firmly believed that this reason was enough to attract Yun Qingchen and make him return to Wenqu Kingdom with her without hesitation.
"...If I choose to spend the rest of my life with Ling'er, where will you go?"
Yun Qingchen's eyes were deep and complex. He stared at Bai Yue quietly, as if he wanted to explore the truth in her heart through her eyes.
"Me? Of course I'll quickly complete my mission and return to the world that belongs to me."
Although Bai Yue thought so in her heart, she said it out loud.
"As for me, of course I'm going to pursue the path of immortal cultivation that I've always dreamed of! Didn't I tell you that cultivating immortality has always been my dream since I was a child?"
As Bai Yue spoke, she looked up at the bright full moon outside the window. She suddenly felt emotional and couldn't help but sigh softly.
"Looking up at the bright moon, I think of my hometown!"
The moonlight was like water, making her clear eyes even brighter, and Yun Qingchen suddenly felt a strong urge in his heart. He wanted to hug the girl in front of him tightly and quietly feel the tranquility and warmth.
"Your Highness, I have a suggestion. Let's become friends starting today!"
"Look, my sister is your beloved, and I am your good friend. If you treat me well, you will not betray your love for my sister, and it will also be a continuation of the promise we made when we entered into the marriage contract."
Bai Yue was worried that Yun Qingchen would get stuck in a rut, so she proposed this compromise.
When Yun Qingchen heard this, he was stunned at first, then a complicated light flashed in his eyes. After a long while, he slowly nodded and spoke softly.
"it is good."
"Reporting to the players, Yun Qingchen's favorability towards you has increased by 30 points, and the current cumulative value is -36 points!"
Xiao 1 reported weakly in Bai Yue's mind, without any of the excitement and excitement of the past.
"Wow, 30 points! Looks like I made a wise decision by choosing to be friends with him!"
When Bai Yue heard this, she immediately smiled triumphantly.
"Mingzhi, what's so wise about your choice? What heroine would be so stupid as to be friends with the target of her capture?"
"Not only do you want to be friends, you're also planning to heal him and return him to your rival. Even I, the system administrator, can't understand your train of thought!"
Bai Yue ignored Xiao 1's complaints. She just smiled and continued talking to Yun Qingchen.
"We are friends now, so there is no need to call each other your Highness every day. From now on, I will call you Qingchen and you can call me Baiyue!"
Bai Yue said as she placed the midnight snack in the lunch box in front of Yun Qingchen.
"..."
"If you don't want me to call you Qingchen, I can call you brother-in-law. However, it may not be convenient in Wulie Country now. After all, if I call you that, people will think we are playing some game!"
Bai Yue thought Yun Qingchen didn't want her to call him so intimately, so she had to change her words.
"No, from now on you can call me Gu Qingchen, and I will call you... Yue'er!"
"Uh, Qingchen, you should just call me Xiaoyue!"
When Bai Yue heard that Yue'er always felt a bit like Xiu'er, she quickly corrected it.
"Okay, Xiaoyue!"
Yun Qingchen has now accepted Bai Yue's role as a friend. Perhaps, as the other party said, as long as the two of them are friends, then if he treats her well, he is neither betraying Ling'er nor betraying their marriage.
"Are you saying that the Crown Princess Chenyun has recently transformed herself into a miracle doctor and started treating patients at the gate of the Hostage Mansion?"
In the magnificent hall, Mo Xuanche looked at his subordinates with a glint of surprise and interest in his eyes.
"Yes, Master, there's a rumor going around in the market that Crown Princess Chenyun is a fairy from the Hundred Flowers Kingdom, who came here specifically to save the people from dire straits!"
A guard dressed as a commoner knelt in front of Mo Xuanche, his voice full of awe and admiration.
"What about Crown Prince Chenyun? His Crown Princess has become a fairy in the eyes of the world, so what is this so-called 'useless person' doing?"
Mo Xuanche asked casually while sipping the fragrant tea.
