Your Highness insists that I marry him

The palace was so exquisite that Mu Yong couldn't imagine it, even the air inside seemed spotless, and the sunlight was resplendent.Mu Yong felt that he had never been so ashamed before, he only dared to look down at the road, and carefully breathed the air with a touch of incense.

Under his feet is a floor made of white marble, on which his broken cloth shoes are nondescript, and Mu Yong can even see the dirt from his cloth shoes falling on the clean and reflective ground, just like himself, he can't blend into this gorgeous place at all. A majestic palace.

On the way here, Mu Yong could still think about the reason why he came here, but once he entered the palace, his mind became blank.The magnificence of this palace was realized for the first time in front of him like the vast imperial power, which brought him an unprecedented impact.The imperial soldier handed him over to the elderly nobleman he saw yesterday.The man glanced at him and motioned him to follow, but he didn't say a word to him, or give him an extra look when he turned his head.Mu Yong could only follow closely silently, occasionally raising his eyes to peek.The man's dark brown hair with a few touches of gray was meticulously combed, and his straight back was walking in front of him. The leather boots on his feet stepped on the marble floor rhythmically, touching Mu Yong's heart one by one. Hit the rhythm.He once again clearly felt that he was like an ant, so small that he didn't need to care about it.He can only let the people in front of him lead him into a deeper unknown, and listen to the heavy doors opening in front of him and closing behind him.

After walking through the long corridors of the palace for an unknown amount of time, the middle-aged man finally stopped in front of a door.

"His Royal Highness. Someone brought..."

"Come in..." Princess Siyi's voice came out quickly.

The door in front of him was opened, and the man walked in, bowing deeply like a princess.

Mu Yong had no choice but to go in and knelt on the marble floor. "Meet Her Majesty the Princess."

"Get up..." the princess said lightly.

Mu Yong stood up, raised his eyes carefully, the princess sat casually in a high chair, looking down at him, and a maid stood on the left and right respectively.Mu Yong didn't look carefully, and lowered his head again. The princess is naturally extremely beautiful, but facing Her Highness's beautiful eyes, Mu Yong can only feel the fear of being seen from the inside.

"What's your name?" said the princess.

"Back to Your Royal Highness, the younger one is called Mu Yong."

"Did you get invited to the Ancient Dragon Festival yesterday?"

"No..." Mu Yong swallowed.The princess asked the question knowingly. "The little one is a handyman who helps the kitchen."

"How did the helper get out of the kitchen?" The princess smiled gracefully, but Mu Yong felt that the smiling princess was inexplicably more terrifying.

"Back to the princess, the banquet was basically over at that time. The little one came out to help clean up the dishes. When I accidentally met His Highness Qi, I wanted to send His Highness back to his family." Mu Yong couldn't help but speed up his speech. He took out the speech he had prepared.This statement deliberately blurred where he met that foolish prince, which sounds nicer.But if the princess wants to blame him, it's useless for him to say anything.

Fortunately, the princess looked at him with a smile for a while, and instead of pursuing the details, she asked an irrelevant question. "How old are you?"

"Little 21."

"Are you still an apprentice at the culinary academy?"

"Yes..." Mu Yong lowered his head. Many people have married at the age of eighteen or nineteen, and most of the apprentices are teenagers.Mu Yong is still an apprentice at this age, so it can be said that he can accomplish nothing.In other words, given his family environment, he shouldn't have expected to enter Longwu Academy.It took him a long time to save money for the journey, and he was older than most people when he came here, and he had to work and study all the time. Because it was difficult to afford bone coins, he often couldn't complete the tasks of the college.It can be said that Mu Yong has not given up yet, a kind of unwillingness in his heart may have been more than realistic considerations.

"Your parents were chefs?"

Mu Yong paused. Although the princess's questions were not beyond the common sense, he felt as if he was pushed into a corner. "Little one, I don't know my father."

"Oh?" The princess smiled.

Mu Yong opened his dry mouth, but he still had to squeeze out the words. "My mother was a hot girl from the countryside." His mother was a pariah with no inferior talents.Born in a small town by the river where a cargo ship landed, he was taken captive to a broken kiln when he was young, and he never went out his whole life.

"Where is your mother now?"

Mu Yong closed his eyes. "My mother died young." After a pause, he added: "The younger one has no brothers or sisters."

The princess stared at Mu Yong for a while, then continued to ask. "You also lived in a brothel since childhood?"

"Yes..." Like a prey that has nothing to hide in front of the wild beast, the blood color retreated from Mu Yong's face little by little. The princess gently rested her chin on her hand, and looked at Mu Yong with a little interest. Yong, "Any interesting news?"

Mu Yong opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, how could it be interesting?Is it poor fun, is it dirty fun, or is it mean fun?The happiest day in Mu Yong's life was the day he discovered that he was talented, and his greatest wish was to forget all the memories there.Mu Yong knows that the princess is by no means stupid, on the contrary she is very smart.But he couldn't understand the deep meaning in her words.The unknown frightened him.

The princess suddenly smiled softly and changed the subject. "You ran into it yesterday. It was His Highness Xue Qi. When His Highness Qi was young, he also had a puppy."

Mu Yong raised his head in confusion.

The princess is full of smiles. "It's a little yellow dog."

Mu Yong lowered his head.People here value dark hair.The royal family all have black hair.Most aristocrats are very dark brown, untalented pariahs are often sallow.Unfortunately, Mu Yong has yellow hair like his mother.So these nobles of the royal family have never seen a person with yellow hair, so do they treat him as a dog?

"Unfortunately, that puppy died many years ago." The princess put away her smile which was rare. "The little wizard was only four or five years old at that time. I think he must have been hit hard."

"Xiao Qi, he had an accident, and he was sent out of the palace for a long time afterwards." The princess said carefully. "He's unresponsive to most things in the world. But obviously, you're an exception. Whatever the reason, I feel like it's a good thing."

"Yes..." Mu Yong was not interested in His Royal Highness Qi, but this matter was out of his control, so his opinion naturally didn't matter.

"If you keep him interested in you. I can keep you in this palace."

"Yes..." Mu Yong couldn't be happy with the princess' superior tone, but he naturally didn't have the guts to say it.

"There are many rules in this palace. Some are old bad habits, but some have their reasons. These Wei An will teach you."

The middle-aged noble who brought Mu Yong in bowed slightly to Her Highness the Princess upon hearing this.

The princess stared at Mu Yong's bowed head and said. "Give it to him..."

Wei An said yes, then he found a strange white bag and handed it to Mu Yong.As soon as Mu Yong took it, he realized that it was also a bone vessel. He heard that there is a small animal that likes to devour gold and silver. It has a pouch in its mouth, which can store things much larger than itself.Although this is the first time Mu Yong has seen this kind of bone vessel for storage, it can be used by anyone with a little spiritual power in his body.

Mu Yong turned over the contents of the bag, and there were twenty gold coins and a small box. Mu Yong's heart skipped a beat just because of the twenty gold coins, but he was dragged to the ground by the contents of the box.

"This is an old item from His Royal Highness Qi's childhood."

In the exquisite locket lies a beautiful leather ring.White spirit animal skin, a pure gold buckle, and a light red gemstone inlaid in the middle.Even after so many years, those few pieces of gold can still stand indifferently.

But it's a dog collar.

Mu Yong only felt that he was stuck by the ice, and he was almost shocked by the cold.He is certainly eager to change his life, eager to achieve success.But he was unwilling to all these gifts from others, especially the princess's gift, which had already been marked with a price.

The words that Mu Yong wanted to refuse rose from his chest, but they got stuck in his throat again, stirring up and down.Before he could figure out how to say it.The princess had already stood up and did not look at him again. "Now, follow me to meet His Highness Qi."

Mu Yong gritted his teeth secretly, but he had no choice but to get up, and followed Her Royal Highness step by step, and soon came to an independent tower. The princess walked directly to the innermost door, and then Wei An bowed and opened the door.

Mu Yong was surprised to find that the room was darker than the outside.Thick curtains blocked almost all the light.After my eyes adjusted, I saw two people inside.Naturally, they also saw the princess and saluted the princess one after another.

The princess walked into the room step by step, the heavy curtains were pulled aside by Wei An, and the sunlight flooded in.

The princess simply asked a few words.Mu Yong, who was waiting outside the door, also saw those two people clearly.The corner of his mouth twitched in embarrassment.

These two people are men, one is young, the other is slightly older, well dressed, the most conspicuous thing in common is that their hair color is relatively light, almost close to yellow.Although hair color is related to talent, it is not absolute.So in a short period of time, the princess found two people with the same yellow hair but better backgrounds for His Royal Highness Qi?And looking at the two people's eager attitude towards the princess, Mu Yong was even more helpless, and he couldn't catch up with the fool.

At this moment, Mu Yong finally didn't have to face the princess, and his mind turned.By the way, who is His Royal Highness Qi?Why is the princess so interested in this fool?The royal family is not easy to conceive, and there are very few viscounts. Since His Royal Highness is a prince, why has he never heard of it?

When Mu Yong was doubtful, in the room, the two seemed unwilling to give up and were still trying to talk to His Royal Highness Xue Qi, but even in front of the princess, they didn't get any response.

At this moment, the princess turned around and looked at him, "Mu Yong, come here."
