The king was visibly upset.

Could it be that, as the minister guessed, he was so insatiable that being a Marquis was not enough, and he wanted more?

"Give me a reason."

Mu Jingchen didn't change his face, and said bluntly: "Rescuing Zhoucheng is really to rescue Liyue, and there is no other meaning. I am worthy of receiving the reward from Your Majesty."

"No matter what your purpose is, it is true that you saved the people of Zhoucheng, and you deserve this reward."

The king's insistence did not bring about his compromise.

He still replied without shame: "Your Majesty, please take it back!"

The king made an exception and gave him such a great honor. Instead of thanking him, he refused. The king naturally felt ashamed.

Even, I feel that he is a little ignorant.

But facing the ministers, the king did not show any dissatisfaction.

He looked at Mu Jingchen with a cold face, and said, "Since you are so persistent, well, I will do what you want."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Mu Jingchen's expression was cold. After rejecting the king, his expression remained calm, as if nothing had happened.

The king originally thought that he was Huangfu Liyue's husband, so he took the opportunity to promote him so that his status would match his daughter's.

But now, he flatly refused, which the king never expected.

This time, the reward was ended amidst the doubts of the king and his ministers.

...

Until Huangfu Liyue and Mu Jingchen left the main hall together.

The two walked side by side to the Chang'an Hall.

Mu Jingchen didn't say a word all the way.

He was always calm, but Huangfu Liyue finally couldn't hold back anymore.

She stopped, looked at him, and asked puzzledly: "Just now, why did you refuse the reward from the king?"

Mu Jingchen then stopped and turned to face her.

"Liyue, I have already said that the materials I raised to help Zhou Cheng are only for you, and it is not appropriate to accept a reward."

"However, you clearly know that the father wants to promote you this time. He wants you to make a big difference in country Y in the future, so..."

"Liyue."

He interrupted her suddenly, and said very coldly: "I never thought of coming to country Y to develop."

Huangfu Liyue opened her mouth, but the words she wanted to say were blocked.

I never thought of coming to country Y to develop, so I never planned to stay in country Y for a long time, right?

She really couldn't understand this point.

Even if it's for his career, for the powerful family he has now, he accepted the reward, which would be more helpful to his career and family.

But he refused straight away, which made her feel that he was deliberately severing ties with King Y's family.

At this moment, she was very disappointed, not only because of the reward, but because of his attitude.

Mu Jingchen sensed her depression, approached her, and caressed her face.

"I don't want to be bound, I have no other intentions, I hope you can understand."

She raised her eyes slightly, and met the eyes as black as a deep pool.

After a long time, she finally said, "Maybe, I'm thinking too much, let's go back."

"Ah."

He didn't explain too much, took her hand and held it tightly in his palm, and walked towards Chang'an Hall step by step.

Then they lived a peaceful and happy life.

Mu Jingchen often runs between country Y and country Z, and his children also live in each of the two countries for a period of time.

The Quan family controlled by Mu Jingchen is already known as the No. [-] nobleman in country Z, and has become the largest family in Jiangcheng.

The enterprises under his hands spread all over the country.

And Huangfu Liyue, even though she became a princess, did not forget her previous dream.

She was allowed by the king to establish her own clothing company under the banner of the royal enterprise, and has her own clothing brand: SY.

Their lives are all developing in a better direction.

However, not long after, this peaceful life was broken by another sudden incident.

……

Five months later.

Chang'an Hall.

Bai Liyue sat on the sofa in the lobby, concentrating on hand-drawing a dress design.

Just as the inspiration was bursting, and the painting reached a critical point, an irritable voice came from outside the door.

"Sister! Please save me!"

As the voice drifted to Huangfu Liyue's ears, Huangfu Yeting walked in.

Then the pen in her hand stopped.

Seeing her younger brother's irritated face, she smiled lightly and joked, "Why, have you been bullied by the future princess again?"

Two days ago, Princess Ji Lingxi of Country E was ordered to come to Country Y to choose one of the two princes, and the two countries will marry each other.

In the past few months, Huangfu Yuncheng has resumed suffrage.

After Ji Lingxi came to country Y, the king ordered people to summon Huangfu Yuncheng and Huangfu Yeting.

Not surprisingly, Ji Lingxi chose Huangfu Yeting.

The king immediately ordered that the two be married on a certain day.

However, this gave Huangfu Yeting, who was completely unprepared, a headache.

Ever since the king announced their marriage, Ji Lingxi has been pestering him tirelessly every day.

As for Huangfu Yeting, when he saw her, he hid everywhere like a mouse seeing a cat.

Huangfu Liyue knew without guessing that he was avoiding the princess again.

Listening to her teasing words, Huangfu Yeting frowned.

"What future princess, sister, I'm only old now, I don't want to marry a wife at all!

Besides, even if I want to marry a wife, I don't want to marry her like that! "

Huangfu Liyue didn't agree with the disgusting words from his younger brother's mouth.

She recalled the appearance of Princess Ji Lingxi.

He has a clear appearance, is very cute, and has a lively personality.

"Ye Ting, you are somewhat dissatisfied. I think that princess is pretty good. What makes you dissatisfied with her?"

Huangfu Yeting couldn't tell the reason for a while, and after thinking for a long time, he finally said: "She is too ignorant of the rules, and she is too noisy. She doesn't have the demeanor of a royal princess at all!"

The noble daughters and princesses he had met were all gentle and pleasant, delicate and polite.

But this Ji Lingxi was completely different from them.

Huangfu Liyue probably understood what he meant, but she still didn't agree with him.

"Who stipulates that the princess must stick to the rules, be modest and polite? Everyone has their own personality. You should cherish a girl who is so lively when she grows up in the royal family!"

As soon as the words were finished, a girl in a sky blue dress and a simple ponytail ran in.

"Huangfu Yeting! You actually hid here so you wouldn't go shopping with me!"

This girl looks pretty, with a natural unrestrained vigor.

When he saw Huangfu Liyue, he quickly saluted again.

"Hello, sister Liyue."

"Princess Lingxi, you're welcome."

As soon as Huangfu Liyue finished replying, Huangfu Yeting immediately sat beside her and asked her for help in a low voice: "Sister, please, send her away quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, Ji Lingxi turned to him dissatisfied and said, "Huangfu Yeting, why have you been avoiding me? The king has agreed to our marriage, so why don't you take this opportunity to develop a relationship with me! "

Huangfu Yeting gave her a slightly disgusted look.

As a princess, he didn't even have a trace of reserve, so he was very speechless.
