The Eldest Daughter Reborn: She Provoked the Obsessive Crown Prince and Couldn't Escape

The wind of late autumn and early winter was already a bit chilly. Fu Luan shivered as the breeze blew on her.

Fu Yuan caressed the snow-white skin of the person beneath him, quite satisfied with Fu Luan's reaction;

He leaned down, kissing and teasing her, which sent another shiver down Fu Luan's spine.

"Ugh... Fu Yuan, you!" Fu Luan tried to push Fu Yuan off her, but Fu Yuan remained unmoved.

Left with no other choice, she reached out and ripped the curtains off completely; this action left Fu Yuan speechless!

The windows of this boat are openwork. Without the curtains, the boatwomen coming and going outside can see everything inside the boat clearly if they look closely!

Fu Luan lay on the couch, gazing at the scenery outside the window; at this moment, not only was there a breeze, but also some fine snowflakes drifted in and landed on her shoulders.

Fu Yuan stared blankly. Everyone said that his sister's skin was as white as snow, and that was no lie.

"What are you doing?!" Fu Yuan frowned.

Fu Luan sneered, "Why did you stop, brother? You did this to me on the ship, you must not be ashamed."

"Then let the passing maids see what the eldest son of the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion, the head of the Fu family, has done to his own sister!"

“You…” Fu Yuan knew her temperament; he couldn’t reason with her or force her, so he reluctantly got off her.

"From the moment you came in, you had already planned how to deal with me, didn't you?" Fu Yuan asked in a hoarse voice.

"Otherwise what? I seem to have reminded you that if you do this to me again, I will..." Fu Luan straightened her clothes, as if nothing had happened.

"You'll kill me, won't you? No, you won't... I was brought here by my mother; and you... respect your mother the most!" Fu Yuan said self-deprecatingly.

Fu Luan sighed, "If you think that I am not currently engaged, you will turn around and accept me."

"But you should also understand that I would never do such a thing! Fu Yuan, what's done is done!"

Fu Yuan ignored her words and replied, "If you marry into the Yongning Marquis's mansion, I will expel Cuiyun."

"If you are unwilling, Cuiyun will..."

“This is between you and me, and has nothing to do with Cuiyun. Are you trying to say that Xiaojiu was behind her seduction?” Fu Luan said with a half-smile.

Fu Yuan frowned again, "You knew all that?!"

Fu Luan smiled and said, "What don't I know? At that time, we were deeply in love."

"Although Cuiyun is our family's maid, Xiaojiu and I met Cuiyun at the same time. You have no wife or concubines, but he has a bunch of concubines at home."

"He's worried that I'll side with you for this reason, and also because I planted Cuiyun next to Zhengzheng as a spy, so..."

"He also secretly approached Cuiyun, probably gave her a lot of money, and used the status of 'concubine of the Marquis of Yongning' or even 'Lady of the Marquis of Yongning' as bait to have her seduce you."

"I'm afraid Yuan Jia has sent quite a few people over there too! But..."

However, Yuan Jia probably didn't fall for it...

The snow fell heavier and heavier, and the two of them sat around the stove in the boat brewing tea, which was quite a unique experience.

Unfortunately, after that commotion, Fu Yuan knew in his heart that the chances he and Fu Luan could be alone in private were becoming increasingly rare...

The snow had been falling for several days, and the snow was already knee-deep. The imperial court even ordered local governments to post notices everywhere, advising people not to go out unless necessary, to avoid accidents.

Even so, some people still go out regardless; some do it to make a living, while others... do it just to see their sweetheart.

For example, Yuanjiu...

"Grandma, His Highness the Prince of Yan is knocking on the door outside the Marquis's residence, saying he insists on seeing you and won't leave until you come."

"Even the Third Young Master and the Fourth Young Master tried to persuade him, but it was no use. He wouldn't even go into the front hall; he insisted on seeing you!" the servant hurriedly reported.

Fu Luan said sternly, "He is now my elder sister's betrothed. If I see him, what would I become? I will not see him!"

"You guys are really something. I've said the same thing so many times, but you just don't learn! You keep coming back to tell me the same thing over and over again."

"What? So the Prince of Yan's orders are orders, but my words as his grandmother don't count, is that right?"

"Don't feel wronged. This isn't just for you. Hua Luo, spread the word everywhere. Anyone who tells me about this to the Prince of Yan will be severely punished!"

The little maidservant's face turned purplish-red after being scolded, and her eyes also became red. Hua Luo quickly sent her away and then gave instructions to everyone as Fu Luan had told her.

“Ah Luan has been so temperamental lately! I rarely saw you get angry at the servants like this before…” Fu Ze waited for Fu Luan to finish speaking before pacing into the house.

"Fourth Brother's affair with Liuyun has recently come to light at home, and he's been in a much better mood and hasn't been coughing anymore; it seems that Liuyun..."

“Your medical skills are even better than Fu Ling’s!” Fu Luan said with a smile as she poured hot tea for her brother.

Fu Ze took the teacup, but only gently put it down. "What, did I come here just to drink tea?"

"The Prince of Yan suffered a lot in prison. He finally recovered, but later he was seriously injured while saving you. It took him a long time to recover..."

"Now that the snow is heavy and the weather is cold, you might as well see him and talk things out with him to put an end to his thoughts, and he will not come again."

"He got cold outside and even fell ill, but in the end, wouldn't you be the one who feels the most sorry for him?"

Fu Luan sneered, "I was wondering why Fourth Brother, who rarely comes to my place, suddenly showed up today? It's true what they say, 'He doesn't come here unless he has a reason!'"

"How come I didn't know that your relationship with the Prince of Yan had suddenly become so good, and you were actually willing to act as his advocate?"

"When I was wholeheartedly supporting him, you despised him in every way!"

Fu Ze sighed, "How could I be helping him? I'm helping you! I..."

Fu Luan said coldly, "Thank you for your kindness, Fourth Brother, but it's not necessary! Since you're so willing to help, why not 'help' your real twin sister instead?"

"After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Fu family, the Crown Princess appointed by the ancestral precepts of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the betrothed of the Prince of Yan!"

Fu Ze sighed again: "A Luan, although I do not know what you and the Prince of Yan have been through;

"Even if everything else is fake, a man is willing to use his body and his life to save you. Don't you believe in his love for you?"

"Even if I were to use Liu Yun, I might not be able to do that!"

"Your brother won't force you to marry him or anything. Just meet him once, so you don't put him in a difficult position, okay?"

Fu Luan whispered, “This is bad! I’ve already suffered the same loss once; I’ve already fallen for the same trick once. I can’t make the same mistake again!”

"Of course my brother will speak up for him! You and the Prince of Yan are both men, and both of you have had children with other women before you were married!"

"Fourth Brother, don't forget that day when Father disagreed with your marriage to Liuyun and even wanted to kick Liuyun out of the house, who stood by your side and opposed Father?"

"If I were to speak up for Father now and ask you to abort Liuyun's child and kick her out of the house, how would you feel?"

"You have things you don't want to do, but you can't understand that I also have things I don't want to do!"

Fu Luan immediately opened the door, issuing an order to leave; but as soon as the door opened, she saw Yuan Jiu standing outside, his head covered in frost...
