The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here

Mo Yun remained hidden in the shadows, quietly observing the movements at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion.

He only appeared with the other guards after he saw the Second Prince's figure completely leave.

Mo Yun strode into the prince's room and bowed slightly: "Your Highness, do you have any further instructions? Please let me know."

Dongfang Yu slowly sat up straight and said, "Go and see if Yuehua Pavilion has been tidied up."

Upon hearing this, Mo Yun was slightly taken aback.

The Moon Pavilion had always been properly maintained and was usually quite clean and tidy, so there was no need for it to be cleaned up anymore.

Mo Yun suddenly understood; it turned out that the prince wanted to give the princess the best.

The prince was probably worried that the servants would neglect their duties after this trip, fearing that the princess would be disappointed and that her rest would be disturbed.

The prince's move was also an indirect way of telling everyone in the mansion that Miss Xiyue's ability to move into this pavilion, which symbolizes the future mistress's status, means that she is his only wife.

The Moon Pavilion was originally the main house meticulously designed for the male and female owners of this mansion. Its location and layout were the best choices after repeated consideration.

Unfortunately, the prince himself has never lived here all these years, and in the past, he has only carried out some basic maintenance on this pavilion.

However, things changed drastically after the prince met the princess. He went to great lengths to make Yuehua Pavilion more in line with the princess's preferences.

He not only spent a lot of time and energy decorating and renovating it on a large scale, but also personally wrote the name and made a plaque to hang on it.

In recent years, the prince has even arranged for someone to clean and maintain the courtyard. It seems as if the courtyard has been waiting for the right opportunity so that its mistress can move in at any time.

Two months ago, upon learning that the princess was about to return, the prince was overjoyed and immediately sent a letter to strictly instruct the steward to bring all the rare and valuable flower varieties and all kinds of exotic plants into the Moonflower Pavilion.

At the same time, the prince also had the daily necessities for the woman prepared in advance, from dressing table to toiletries, all of which were carefully selected.

Even more meticulously, many sets of clothing were prepared according to the current size of the princess.

Mo Yun thought that the prince had already done so much, but in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he still went there in person to check and confirm it carefully.

He quickly clasped his hands in a salute and respectfully replied, "Your subordinate will go and check right away!" Then he turned and hurriedly left.

After Mo Yun left, Wang Xiyue couldn't help but feel a little curious about the Moonflower Pavilion.

She turned her head to look at the young man and said softly, "The name of this Moonflower Pavilion is quite beautiful. However, we have been traveling all this time, so it is normal that we did not have time to prepare."

"If it hasn't been packed yet, there's no need to rush. Just arrange a room for me and Zhuzhu to stay in each."

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Yu slowly stood up and moved to stand in front of Wang Xiyue.

He gently stretched out his arms and tenderly pulled Xiyue into his embrace, whispering apologetically, "I'm sorry, Xiyue, I've made you suffer."

Wang Xiyue raised her hands and hugged the young man's waist, burying her head in his broad and warm chest.

She knew he apologized because of the hardship of being forced to travel and because he couldn't give her the proper treatment of a wife.

She responded softly, "I lived in Yue Nian Nunnery and Guo Zhao Temple for six years. I didn't feel tired even in such a simple place, let alone just traveling normally."

"Actually, I've gotten used to the simple meals and unpretentious lifestyle there. Compared to the conditions at your Prince Xian's Mansion, it's like comparing heaven and earth. Do you think I would still complain?"

"If you suddenly placed me in a luxurious and opulent room, I'm afraid I would find it difficult to adapt."

"So, you don't need to do it deliberately. It's better if we're more casual with each other!"

"As long as I can feel your care for me and your love in my heart, that's enough!"

Dongfang Yu listened to Xiyue's heartfelt words and was filled with gratitude and affection.

He could clearly feel Xiyue's care and concern for him. This tender affection was like a warm fire in the cold winter, making him want to get closer and want to get more.

So, his hands unconsciously tightened, as if afraid that if he let go, the person in his arms would disappear like a dream again.

How incredibly lucky I am to have met such a wonderful woman.

Her resilience, kindness, and affection for him all captivated him.

That is why, even though he knew that some of his actions were neither reasonable nor in accordance with the rules, he was still determined to keep her tightly by his side and never be separated from her.

At this moment, Dongfang Yu felt an overwhelming urge; he desperately wanted to kiss Xiyue.

Although he and she had been together every day for the past two months, there were always people coming and going around them, and he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to be alone with her, let alone get close to her.

Just as he was filled with conflicting thoughts, he suddenly realized that his face was still covered in all sorts of paint, and if he were to kiss her rashly, he would only get Xiyue's little face dirty.

Left with no other choice, Dongfang Yu had to suppress his desires for the time being, and simply held Xiyue's body tightly with all his might, hoping to soothe his restless heart caused by love and longing.

He silently told himself to be patient a little longer. Once night fell, once he had cleaned himself up, and once Xiyue had eaten and drunk her fill, he would savor her unique flavor and enjoy the sweet time they spent alone together.

Just then, a deliberately heavy footstep sound came from outside the door, followed by Mo Yun's respectful voice: "Your Highness, Yuehua Pavilion has been prepared."

After Dongfang Yu responded, she gently took Xiyue's hand and hurriedly walked out of the room.

Before long, the two arrived in front of the Moonflower Pavilion.

When Wang Xiyue looked up and saw the plaque hanging high above the courtyard gate, she immediately recognized that the elegant calligraphy on it was written by Xiao Ge.

Just from these vigorous and uniquely charming characters, one can feel the effort and importance he has put into this place.

Filled with anticipation and curiosity, Wang Xiyue stepped through the courtyard gate.

When she stepped inside, the sight before her eyes made her widen her eyes in astonishment.

What appeared before her was a small and unique independent courtyard.

This courtyard features a rare two-story loft design, giving it an elegant yet comfortable and relaxing feel.

The first floor is the living room, and the second floor has a pavilion for drinking tea and enjoying the moon, as well as a small room.

The layout of the courtyard was also carefully planned.

A variety of flowers and plants vie for attention, adorning both sides of the path.

A tall, straight tree with lush foliage stands like a loyal guardian in a corner of the courtyard wall.

Small rocks of various shapes are scattered around the big trees, complementing the crystal-clear pool and creating a picturesque scene.

Being here feels like stepping into a warm and harmonious little home.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Wang Xiyue strode into the house. As soon as she entered, she was immediately drawn to the more exquisite furnishings inside.

It uses sky blue as the base color, accented with warm yellow.

The room was fully equipped with all kinds of daily necessities, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

The walls are adorned with exquisite paintings, depicting landscapes or figures, all of them lifelike.

On the antique wooden table, plates of fresh, juicy fruit were neatly arranged, emitting an enticing aroma.

Just then, Dongfang Yu, who had been silently following behind, asked softly, "How is it? Do you like it?"

Hearing the question, Wang Xiyue came back to her senses and couldn't help but ask, "This...is this really just a guest room? How come it looks even more like the main house than the Cloud Pavilion where you live?"

Dongfang Yu smiled and said, "This is just an unused courtyard. You don't need to worry or hold back. From now on, this place belongs to you alone!"

He took her hand and led her slowly inside. As they walked, he stopped, pointed to the wardrobe embedded in the entire wall, and explained softly, "Xiyue, due to the short notice, the number of clothes I can prepare for you is limited."

"However, you can make do with these clothes for the next few days. Tomorrow, I will definitely have an embroiderer come to your home to take your measurements and make new clothes."

Wang Xiyue looked around the spacious and bright bedroom with curiosity. It was understatedly luxurious, with few but simple and elegant items, and they were clearly not ordinary. Her gaze finally settled on the enormous nanmu bed.

This bed is incredibly large; it could easily comfortably fit three or four people.

She couldn't help but marvel inwardly, knowing that this bedroom was much larger than her two bedrooms combined!

A wonderful feeling, hard to describe, welled up inside me.

Wang Xiyue frowned slightly and murmured softly.

"Hmm... It's beautiful here, and I like it very much. It's just that it always feels empty since I live here all by myself."

Wang Xiyue was a little embarrassed, and with a touch of awkwardness, she just remembered someone, "How could I have forgotten about Zhuzhu?"

Looking at the innocent and lovely appearance of the person in front of him, Dongfang Yu felt even more delighted.

At the same time, she silently added the words she hadn't said aloud: "Actually, it's not big at all. After all, this is where you and I will live together after we get married."

"By then, even with you, my wife, and our children all together, it will only be just enough."

Therefore, he naturally wouldn't agree to let Zhuzhu move in.

“Zhuzhu is an adult now and needs her own room. I’ve arranged for her to stay at Tingyuxuan near Moyun. He will take good care of her.”

Wang Xiyue nodded and said softly, "I don't know if I can explain it to her clearly?"

She knew that this was, after all, a royal residence, and some rules should indeed be followed according to the master's arrangements, and it could no longer be as casual as it was in her own home.

Otherwise, their willfulness might have a negative impact on Dongfang Yu, who is now a prince of a country, not just her brother.

She came to help him, not to make things worse; she didn't really care about these trivial things.

Seeing her so cooperative, Dongfang Yu gently smoothed the hair by her ear and said, "Don't worry, I'll have Moyun explain things to her."

"Xiyue, you must be tired after traveling for so long. You should wash up and rest for a while. I'll go and ask the kitchen to prepare some food."

"The bathhouse is in one corner of the courtyard. You can go there for a soak to relax. I'll come pick you up later so we can go have dinner together."

Wang Xiyue did feel tired, sleepy, hungry, and very dirty.

"OK!"

As soon as Dongfang Yu left the courtyard, she instructed Mo Yun, who looked somewhat worried, "The Prince's mansion is safe now, and there's still Shadow Guard there. You can go and bring Zhuzhu and the others back openly and honestly!"

Mo Yun touched his nose, wondering if his behavior was that obvious.

He had originally intended to ask the prince to let him go, but the prince saw through his little scheme.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Dongfang Yu casually instructed, "Have Zhuzhu stay at Tingyu Pavilion. Mingzhe, you can make your own arrangements. He must also master what the guards of the Prince's Mansion need to learn. Unless the Princess Consort speaks up, he is under your command at all other times."
