Female Master: The Cold Prince

"Father, if this was done by the eldest princess, it is not impossible."

Ever since she learned from the ministers that the court officials were dependent on her, she no longer dared to look down on this seemingly pure and simple imperial sister.

She asked herself if she had the ability to make court officials choose to rely on her in such a short period of time.

"Find a way to suppress the court officials who support her and don't let her grow up. A princess born to a lowly slave dares to covet things that don't belong to her. She really doesn't know how to live or die." Feng Jun said with a gloomy look in his eyes.

I haven't touched the father and daughter for these years, but I let them go because the slave was relatively law-abiding.

Unexpectedly, this lowly slave became more and more daring. He even dared to instigate his daughter to form gangs and rob his daughter's things, and regarded him, the Lord Feng, as a mere decoration.

"Yes, father." She obeyed despite her disdain.

They were just a few ministers from humble families. She didn't take them seriously.

As night fell, the sky was still gray.

The maids guarding outside the study were standing in a serious posture. When they saw a figure slowly walking towards them, they looked at each other and walked forward quickly.

"Your Highness the Prince!"

Zhongli Muchen looked haggard and seemed quite depressed.

"This prince wants to see His Royal Highness Prince Chen for something. Please let him know."

His voice was low and hoarse, but several maids still heard it clearly.

There was a hint of embarrassment in their eyes. The prince did not like to be disturbed when he was handling official business. After hesitating for a moment, one of them turned around and went into the study to pass on the message.

Xiahou Jiuyue, who was flipping through a military book, heard the maid's words and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Prince Yuxia? Let him in."

Tomorrow is the day he returns to China. He must have something to say to her this time.

When Xiahou Jiuyue saw the young man who was full of vigor and vitality in the past suddenly become haggard, she was suddenly stunned.

These past few days, he had been staying in his room and had never come out, and she had never disturbed him.

Unexpectedly, he got himself into such a state that those who didn't know would think she was abusing him.

If he returns to China in this state and is seen by Zhong Li Yue, the brother-doting madman, she will come after her and fight her to the death.

"Mu Chen greets His Royal Highness Prince Chen." He said in a hoarse voice. Before leaving, he still wanted to see her one last time.

"I wonder what the prince wants to see me about?"

Xiahou Jiuyue put down the military book in her hand, pressed her temple with her hand, and didn't look at him.

She didn't want to face him, especially those affectionate eyes, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable.

"Mu Chen is here to say goodbye. I have caused a lot of trouble to Prince Chen during this period of time and made Prince Chen worry." He said with reluctance in his eyes.

The calmness of the past few days made him realize that even if she had not been poisoned and unconscious, and had not broken off the engagement, she would never have married him.

There were too many people and things between him and her, there was no way they could have a future. Her attitude had already said it all.

"Your Highness is too polite. I hope you won't mind my poor hospitality." Xiahou Jiuyue said.

"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. Thank you for your care during this period of time. Mu Chen will definitely remember it in his heart." He said seriously.

Seeing him like this, Xiahou Jiuyue showed a rare hint of embarrassment on her face. How could she not know how she had neglected him these days?

"Your Highness, there is no need to do this. It is our duty to take care of you. If you have nothing else to do, go to bed early!"

She couldn't stand the awkward conversation between the two of them, so she wanted to end the topic between them.

Hearing the order to leave in the other party's words, Zhongli Muchen's already pale face became even paler.

He looked at the woman in front of him quietly, without saying a word. Her hurt and reluctant eyes gradually became firm because of a certain decision.

Seeing him like this, Xiahou Jiuyue's eyes flashed slightly.

"If you have anything to say, Prince, just tell me directly."

Zhongli Muchen lowered his eyes and said in a low voice: "Muchen has a question, I hope the King of Chen can tell me."

"Oh? Your Highness, please tell me." She narrowed her eyes slightly, not understanding what the prince wanted to ask.

"Mu Chen wants to know, has Prince Chen ever had someone he fell in love with at first sight?" After saying that, he looked at the other person with burning eyes.

He had wanted to ask this question for a long time. He really wanted to know what kind of man would be attracted to such an outstanding woman like her.

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Jiuyue was stunned for a moment. This question was totally beyond her expectations.

Seeing the urgency in his eyes, Xiahou Jiuyue felt a throbbing pain in her head.

"Prince, this is a private question of mine. I refuse to answer it. If you have nothing else, please go back!" Her tone was cold, with a hint of impatience between her brows.

Even though he knew this would be the result, Zhongli Muchen still couldn't help but feel the pain in his heart.

When Xiahou Jiuyue saw his sad and lonely expression, she seemed to see the shadow of Yu Suyuan in a trance.

That person was just like him, clearly heartbroken, but trying hard to suppress his emotions.

Xiahou Jiuyue was a little moved in her heart, but for some reason, she finally said, "Never."

Her tone was full of helplessness, and upon hearing this, Zhongli Muchen was stunned for a moment, followed by a surge of joy in his heart.

There was a smile in the corners of his eyes but tears welled up in them. The sadness in his heart was swept away at this moment, and he finally got the answer he wanted.

Coming out of the study, he stood at the door, looking deeply at the people in the room, and muttered to himself: "I have it."

There was a hint of bitterness on his lips. Yes! He did.

From the first time I saw her, I was attracted by her clear and unique temperament. Later, I asked everything about her. The more I knew about her, the more fascinated I was by her, and I was deeply attracted to her and couldn't extricate myself.

Whenever he thought about the fact that this woman would be his wife, he would be so excited that he couldn't sleep all night. He was really happy.

Even though she was extremely cold towards him and avoided him, he was still full of expectations. He believed that as long as they got married, one day she would definitely see his feelings.

But he had destroyed all of this, and she would no longer belong to him.

Thinking of this, Zhongli Muchen's eyes gradually turned red, and he looked into the house with a dazed look, but the door was closed at this time, and he could only see the candlelight coming from inside the house.

Inside the house, Xiahou Jiuyue was also feeling complicated at the moment. It was not that she was unfamiliar with matters of love, but she just couldn't do it now.

There are dangers everywhere around her, and she could lose her life if she is not careful.

She did not deny that she was ambitious and wanted to create her own world on this continent.

The premise is that she cannot have any weaknesses, cannot get emotional, and cannot respond. The only thing she can do is turn a blind eye.

But she didn't understand. She didn't have much contact with him and she tried to avoid him whenever possible. How could he develop feelings for her?

The next day, outside the city gate, Zhongli Muchen sat in the carriage heading back home. He hadn't slept all night, and his eyes were bloodshot, making him look even more tired and haggard.

Looking at the people coming and going at the city gate, he could not see that man alone. The light of expectation in his eyes gradually dimmed.

Will we never get to see each other again for the last time?
