A short night is hard to please! A stunningly handsome prince dotes on her exclusively.

"Brother~"

"Yan'er, slow down!"

Xin Moling saw his sister running towards him from afar, and quickly got up and went to her to support her arm.

"Good morning, brother!"

Wearing nice clothes, Xin Moyan's mood was not as bad as before. She put on a bright smile and greeted Xin Moling.

Xin Moling released his grip, took a step back, and carefully examined his younger sister, his eyes filled with satisfaction. "Hehe, I knew it! My Yan'er would look beautiful in this dress!"

She blinked and asked mischievously, "Brother, Cailian said this dress is one of a kind, it must be very expensive, right?"

Xin Moling reached out and gently tapped her head, then said helplessly, "Don't even mention the family property left to us by our father and mother, even the military merits that your brother has earned over the years, Yan'er could never spend it all in a lifetime. What is a dress? If Yan'er likes it, your brother will buy Xixiang Pavilion another day and give it to Yan'er as her boudoir."

"No, no, no! Brother, Yan'er is just joking!"

Xin Moyan was so frightened that she waved her hands repeatedly. "My boudoir is still my room!" Just now, her brother had someone send over three whole wardrobes full of clothes and dresses, as well as several boxes of gemstone jewelry. She was almost blinded by the dazzling light.

However, with so many options available, she still prefers something simpler.

Xin Moling simply watched her little actions with doting eyes. After the engagement was called off today, he would definitely spend more time with his sister. He hadn't shown enough concern for Yan'er over the years.

"Yan'er, His Majesty is about to finish court. I need to go to the Imperial Study to pay my respects beforehand, lest Yuan Huailie go straight back to his residence after court and not have time to have breakfast with you. However, I have had some snacks prepared in the carriage. Let's go out first, and after the engagement is annulled, I will take you outside the palace to eat something delicious, is that alright?"

"Sure! Brother, Yan'er isn't hungry right now, let's go out!"

She didn't expect her brother to have such a strong opinion about the Prince of Lie, actually calling him by his given name. However, she was a little curious about what the Prince of Lie, whom the original owner was so fond of, looked like. Could he be even more handsome than her brother?

Along the way, the brother and sister chatted animatedly. Xin Moyan was naturally optimistic, and with such a loving brother, she cherished him even more. She also had a strange feeling of kinship, as if Xin Moling was her brother.

However, since she has taken over the original owner's body, she should also protect the original owner's only remaining family ties and take good care of her brother on her behalf.

Xin Moyan not only thought this way in her heart, but also appeared to be very obedient and sensible on the surface. For the first time, she experienced the feeling of having her brother's support, and she was determined to be a good little sister and not let her brother worry or be disappointed!

The carriage soon arrived outside the palace. Looking at the magnificent and imposing buildings, Xin Moyan's eyes flashed with amazement. The palace here was different from the Forbidden City in appearance, but it was equally majestic and spectacular.

Once you enter the palace gates, it's like entering a deep sea; I wonder if it's the same here...

"What is Yan'er thinking about?"

Seeing Xin Moyan staring at the palace gate in front of her, Xin Moling simply took her wrist, gave her a reassuring look, and continued, "Don't worry, Yan'er, your brother will always be here. No one will bully you, and you won't have to live under someone else's roof. As for marriage, I will absolutely not agree to any marriage that isn't with the best man in the world!"

what?

Could it be that her brother saw her in a daze and thought she was reminiscing about the past in the palace and missing the days of Prince Zhui Lie?

Thinking of this, Xin Moyan quickly asked obediently, "What are you talking about, brother? I just think this palace is magnificent, but I can't remember if I ever lived here before. As for the marriage... Brother, we're here today to annul the engagement. I've never thought about marriage in the future. Or do you think that having me around is a burden to you?"

After saying that, Xin Moyan managed to squeeze out a small tear from her eyes, then blinked and stared pitifully at Xin Moling.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, the older brother immediately lost his composure and hurriedly coaxed her, "Yan'er, be good! That's not what I meant. Don't cry, Yan'er. I really don't want you to get married!"

So it turns out her brother can't stand seeing her cry!

"Okay! Brother, let's live our lives well from now on and not talk to anyone else!"

She reached out and took Xin Moling's arm, thinking that she would only act cute and charming in front of her brother from now on, and he would definitely treat her to the best of everything!

"Alright! Yan'er, let's go to the palace then!"

"Uh-huh!"

As soon as they entered the inner palace, a palace maid rushed up to them and respectfully bowed.

"This servant greets the General and Princess Danhua!"

Xin Moling had already reverted to her usual aloof and unapproachable demeanor. She raised her hand to signal the palace maid in front of her to rise and speak, saying indifferently, "No need for formalities! Is the Empress Dowager not in Cining Palace?"

"Reporting to the General, today is the first day of the month. As is customary, Her Majesty the Empress Dowager is burning incense and chanting scriptures in the Fanhe Hall. Her Majesty the Empress Dowager has instructed that after the chanting, she should sit in the Imperial Garden. Perhaps the General and the Princess could go to the Imperial Garden to wait for Her Majesty the Empress Dowager."

After the palace maid finished speaking, she couldn't help but steal a glance at the brother and sister in front of her. General Xin seemed to have gained even more heroic spirit after returning from the battle, and Princess Danhua's stunning beauty made her almost unrecognizable as a princess...

"Well then, this general will take the princess there first."

After Xin Moling finished speaking, she was about to take her younger sister to wait in the Imperial Garden when a eunuch ran over from the side. It was Wang Si, the chief eunuch.

"This servant greets the General and Princess Danhua."

"Why is Eunuch Wang in such a hurry?"

Wang Si withdrew the look of amazement in his eyes at Xin Moyan and quickly said, "His Majesty has adjourned the court. Upon learning that the General brought the Princess to the palace today, he specially sent this servant to invite the General to a gathering in the Imperial Study. All the princes are in the Imperial Study!"

"Hmm, this general will escort Yan'er to the Imperial Garden and then go over there!"

Anyway, they're all waiting in the Imperial Study, so it won't make a difference. My sister's safety is the most important thing!

Seeing the head eunuch's troubled expression, Xin Moyan sweetly said to him, "Brother, His Majesty and the others are waiting for you! Cailian is with you, so I won't get lost. Besides, there are plenty of palace maids and guards along the way, so please go with peace of mind!"

Xin Moling touched her cheek and smiled warmly as well: "Yan'er is so thoughtful. In that case, brother will go ahead first. Yan'er, please be careful in everything."

After saying that, he glanced at the little palace maid beside him and said indifferently, "Take the princess to the Imperial Garden. Remember, you must not let anything happen to the princess, otherwise this general will hold you accountable!"

The young palace maid, seeing Xin Moling's cold expression up close for the first time, nodded repeatedly in fright and carefully guided Xin Moyan onto the path.

"See you later, brother!"

"it is good!"
