Dress up as a sickly person to capture the villain princess!

That tear looked so real under the dim candlelight that Xia Zhiyuan could even see the tear marks on Zhao Changlin's cheek and his wet eyelashes.

"Your Highness... Zhiyuan is not..."

Is it too late for her to explain now?

Xia Zhiyuan spoke in a panic, as anxious as if he were making a relative's child cry, but completely different.

After all, in Xia Zhiyuan's heart, Zhao Changlin has always been a high and mighty prince, a woman among women, and the king among women.

She took out her handkerchief, folded it gently, and was about to wipe away Zhao Changlin's tears.

The concern on Xia Zhiyuan's face was self-evident.

Zhao Changlin hated this about her the most. Why could she always make such a calm decision about the relationship between them and take the initiative to comfort him?

All of this should be done by myself.

Even the risky decision was agreed to by Xia Zhiyuan without the Queen Mother's permission, without even telling her.

In what position did she put herself, the high and mighty prince, or the unreachable crown prince of the Eastern Palace?

Or maybe it's both.

But she was not satisfied, she wanted to go further.

Xia Zhiyuan raised his wrist, holding the handkerchief, and just as it touched the profile of His Highness, Zhao Changlin grabbed his wrist.

Pressing upwards, although Her Highness's movements were powerful at the beginning, they gradually slowed down afterwards, as if Zhao Changlin couldn't bear it and pinched her too hard.

"I know you have your own way of thinking. I shouldn't be so angry. But, Zhiyuan, I don't want you to see him again."

After going around in circles, it turned out that His Highness was jealous. Xia Zhiyuan was not angry, but just thought that His Highness looked very cute.

Her fingers were tightly clasped around her wrist, and Xia Zhiyuan could feel the warmth of her princess's palm, the light sweat on her palm, and the coldness of the wooden screen.

Although he was not used to this kind of restrained situation, Xia Zhiyuan did not get angry or lose control.

She knew that His Highness had never been disobeyed by anyone since he was a child, so it was normal for him to have a bad temper occasionally.

However, this was the first time that Xia Zhiyuan saw the prince cry because of jealousy. It was so cute.

Xia Zhiyuan was neither anxious nor annoyed. Instead, he placed his other hand on His Highness' neck, with a smile in his eyes. His pair of clear, autumn-like pupils were charming.

She stretched out her index finger and placed it on Zhao Changlin's neck, stroking it bit by bit along the blue veins on his fair skin. Wherever her fingertips touched, ripples appeared.

"Your Highness, you look so adorable when you're jealous."

Finally, the fingertips stopped at Zhao Changlin's chest and tapped. Xia Zhiyuan seemed to be able to feel that His Highness's heart was beating slowly, so vividly.

If it were someone else, they would definitely not tease Her Royal Highness the Princess like this, but Xia Zhiyuan was different from others from the beginning to the end.

"Your Highness, don't you know that Zhiyuan is willing to go through fire and water for you? That's because Zhiyuan trusts you."

She tilted her neck and moved closer, her warm breath falling on Zhao Changlin's neck, causing a tingling sensation.

Xia Zhiyuan could see what Zhao Changlin was thinking at a glance, without using any system, relying solely on his own intuition.

"Ji Yuan believes that Your Highness will move forward and succeed in everything he does."

"I will not be at a loss because of the indecision of the Loyal and Brave Marquis, nor because the court is in chaos, and will only be able to focus on the small piece of land in front of me."

"Your Highness, do you know why Zhiyuan chose to stay with you?"

Hearing this, Zhao Changlin was stunned for a moment and stood there in a daze. She knew from the beginning that Xia Zhiyuan was using her in order to get rid of the Xia family's control over her.

But such a candidate does not necessarily have to be himself. There are too many people in Jinzhou City who can achieve what Xia Zhiyuan wants.

The same can be said of the loyal and brave Marquis Lu Boshan.

The status and position of the wife of a marquis was considered a good match for a fourth-rank non-hereditary civil servant, and it was even a marriage of high status.

What's more, Lu Boshan is not a fool without military power.

Zhao Changlin shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. The emotions in her eyes were no longer as turbulent as before. Instead, she calmed down and listened carefully to Xia Zhiyuan's guidance.

"I don't know..."

Your Highness is still like this. He is very romantic when he is romantic, but very stubborn when he is stubborn. If you don’t know, can you just tell me directly?

Forget it, forgive her.

She didn't bother with the sad prince, she should be more generous.

"Then Zhiyuan will be merciful and tell His Highness."

Xia Zhiyuan gently kissed Zhao Changlin's earlobe with a little affection.

A warm and moist feeling swept over him. Before Zhao Changlin could react, he heard Xia Zhiyuan's voice, which was wrapped in a wave of moisture, echoing slowly in his ears: "Of course it's because Zhiyuan fell deeply in love with His Highness from the first moment she saw him."

These words made Zhao Changlin's cheeks turn red in an instant, and his original angry state changed in an instant. Zhao Changlin knew in his heart that this was just a means for Xia Zhiyuan to fool him.

But even so, she was happy with it.

"You said that yourself."

"No regrets."

Zhao Changlin released his hand that had been pressing against hers, and looked at the marks on it with some distress. The crabapple flowers on the screen were still in full bloom.

Even Xia Zhiyuan's wrists were printed with pink crabapple flowers.

"Of course, Your Highness is Zhiyuan's sister, and Zhiyuan will naturally not deceive Your Highness."

With a slight smile, Zhao Changlin tilted his head.

Continue to hold her tight.

In a while, I really have to leave here. The time we spent together day and night before seems precious, but now I have to plan everything so that I can see her.

Otherwise there will be endless troubles, and countless eyes and tails following you.

"I know that love is hard to express. Once you say something, you have to make a decision and it's hard to take it back."

"If you are just under pressure from me, you don't have to do this."

Her eyebrows and eyes are still charming, so breathtakingly beautiful that it makes people forget to breathe.

"Today...I made a mistake."

Zhao Changlin seemed to be really reflecting on her mistakes in front of Xia Zhiyuan. Her words and seriousness made Xia Zhiyuan burst out laughing and continue to kiss her.

She increased the force of her teeth, leaving marks on the prince's soft earlobe. Xia Zhiyuan squinted his eyes comfortably.

"Your Highness is not wrong."

"What Zhiyuan wants is not your apology, but your promise. Does your Highness love Zhiyuan as much as Zhiyuan loves you?"

The intimate actions, ambiguous words, and the face of the sweetheart are all vivid in my mind.

How should she answer this?

Naturally, I am happy and naturally, I am excited.

"Yes, I am pleased with you."
