The villain read my mind and aborted me in my mother's womb. The team begged me not to die.

After the banquet begins.

Just like the previous palace banquet.

The process is the same.

Ao Zhuo also said words of welcome.

Ye Chen and Ye Qianqian also nodded politely.

but.

Ye Qianqian discovered something different.

Those are the women who call the shots.

Many people looked towards Ye Chen.

And many were blushing.

[I didn’t expect that my third brother’s charm would be so great! 】

[On my first day in the grassland, I have attracted the attention of such a woman! 】

[Ouch, this is really incredible! 】

[However, my third brother probably won’t like you. He came with a mission this time! 】

【Be sure to find the ruby ​​mine. 】

Face those enthusiastic eyes.

Ye Chen acted as if he hadn't seen anything.

Mind your own business, drink wine and eat some side dishes.

Sai Zhuo said to Ye Qianqian.

"These are the sisters in my tribe, even though they are cousins."

"But they are all very good women. I see that they look at your third brother very enthusiastically."

"How about it? Do you want your third brother to choose a girl to be his wife?"

Ye Qianqian shook her head.

"I can't be the boss of Third Brother. Third Brother must decide everything by himself."

"If Third Brother doesn't have this intention, then it will be in vain."

Sejo nodded.

"That's true!"

After the banquet is over.

Ye Chen rode a horse to the lake.

Watch the moon's shadow fall on the lake.

He frowned.

The shadows keep changing.

He couldn't guarantee whether there were ruby ​​mines in this lake.

Next to Ye Chen were the guards sent by Ao Zhuo to protect him.

Ye Chen asked.

"Has this lake existed since ancient times?"

"Yes, Your Highness the Third Prince, this lake has been here for hundreds of years."

"Have there been any major earthquakes on the grassland?"

"Yes, according to records, there have been at least ten major earthquakes, but none of them affected Dazhuo Lake."

"However, I heard that the most serious earthquake seemed to have cracked the earth, and the two mountains that were originally connected were separated. However, this is just a legend and there is no record."

Ye Chen didn't ask any more questions.

Ye Qianqian was in the palace at this time.

Se Zhuo took out his jewelry and let Ye Qianqian choose.

"Ye Qianqian, do you think there is any jewelry here that you like? You can wear it."

"Huh? You still want to give it to me?"

"Of course. You are a guest and you have saved my life. Of course I will give you something valuable. This is my most precious treasure here."

"I'll give them all to you, except for this ruby ​​that looks like a key."

"I'm not that greedy."

Ye Qianqian picked up the ruby ​​​​like a key.

"Is this precious to you?"

"This, my royal grandmother left this for me, so I can't give it to you."

"Oh!" Ye Qianqian nodded.

"That is indeed very precious, but how did this gem look like a key?"

Sejo shook his head.

"I don't know either. Anyway, when the imperial grandmother gave it to me, she said it was left to her by her imperial grandmother. However, when she gave it to her, her imperial grandmother could no longer speak clearly, so she passed it on to me later. "

Sejo said and hung it around his neck.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

"Well, why don't you wear it more often?"

"Because I was young, my mother-in-law was afraid that I would bump into her. But now that I am six years old, I know how to protect her."

Just at this time.

A woman came in.

"Cedro."

"Sister, what's the matter?"

"I want to see Ye Qianqian."

"Okay, she's right here! Ye Qianqian, this is my cousin, Tao Zhuo."

"What do you want from me?" Ye Qianqian asked.

Taozhuo spoke directly.

"I like your brother."

Ye Qianqian was startled.

"Is it so direct?"

Sejo nodded.

"Yes, women on the grassland always seem to be so direct! If you like her, just chase her. If you can't catch her, forget about it. Isn't that what Lanzhuo is like?"

Sejo muttered softly.

"Zhou Yanyan is just stalking her."

Ye Qianqian nodded.

"Indeed."

"Looking at it this way, Zhou Yanyan still embarrasses Dayuan!"

Taozhuo asked Ye Qianqian.

"I want to know what kind of person your third brother is?"

Ye Qianqian frowned.

[Oh, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, you are not my third brother’s perfect match! 】

【You can’t be together! 】

[But since you are so enthusiastic, I can’t refuse you directly. 】

Ye Qianqian said.

"The third brother is a very brave person."

"This time, he came to the grassland also for the ruby ​​mine. He doesn't care about things like love at all."

"Even if you really pursue Third Brother, I'm afraid Third Brother won't accept you."

Taozhuo said with a smile.

"Yes, he knows what he wants. I just admire this kind of man who focuses on his career."

"It's much better than those people who live in debauchery!"

"The man I, Taozhuo, like should be like this!"

"Forehead!"

Ye Qianqian scratched his head.

【You are right to think so! 】

[But - alas, you really have no fate! 】

Ye Qianqian thought for a while.

Then he said.

"Before I left Dayuan, Master Cangyun told me that the third brother's fate would not appear until ten years later, so any woman he meets now will not be his right fate."

"Sister Taozhuo, even if you are so enthusiastic, I am afraid that my third brother will break your heart. It is better to just choose someone who likes you. It is also a beautiful thing."

Taozhuo shook his head.

"How will I know if I don't try?"

"Marven hasn't met me yet, how can you be sure that he won't fall in love with me at first sight?"

"Or maybe you won't like me after we meet for a long time?"

"I have never believed in prophecies. Instead of believing in these, it is better to follow your heart and do what you want to do. Even if the prophecy is true in the end, it is far from what I expected at the beginning. At least , and I will not regret the choice I made.”

"Don't worry, if Ye Chen really doesn't care about me, I will never pester him!"

"I have been following Sister Lanzhuo's way of doing things."

Ye Qianqian thought for a while.

Ok.

Such a bright and flamboyant woman.

I really couldn't bear to refuse her.

Ye Qianqian nodded and said.

"In that case, let me tell you some things that Third Brother likes to do."

"The third brother likes reading, riding horses, archery, and practicing martial arts. He has been learning about mining in the past few years."

"This is also the reason why my father asked my third brother and me to come here this time."

"As for things like relationships, Third Brother doesn't have a clear standard now."

"In other words, he doesn't even know what kind of woman he likes."

Taozhuo nodded.

"I understand!"

"Where is Ye Chen now?"

"In Dazhuo Lake."

"Okay, I'll go find him."

Taozhuo finished speaking and left.

Ye Qianqian still hasn't recovered from the shock.

"Is my third brother's peach blossoms so strong? People are chasing him wherever he goes!"

Sejo shrugged.

"I can only blame your third brother for being too charming!"

"Then do you think my third brother is very charming?"

"Well, it's very big!" Sezo said.

"Similar to my brother Hezhuo."

"In the past, many women on the grassland also liked my brother very much, but after they knew that the person my brother liked was Lan Zhuo, they all quit. We will not pursue a man who does not like us!"

Ye Qianqian smiled.

"It's really different from the women from the Central Plains. Most of the women from the Central Plains are very reserved."

"That's probably because I don't like her enough. If I like someone, I'll take the initiative, no matter if it's a man or a woman. Isn't that what Zhou Yanyan is like? It's just that she is too stubborn, and now she is being used emotionally."

After Taozhuo came to Dazhuo Lake.

I saw Ye Chen still standing by the lake thinking about something.

Taozhuo walked over.

The guards didn't stop him.

After all, this is a royal family.

"Third Prince."

Ye Chen turned around and took a look.

"you are?"

"I am Tao Zhuo, Se Zhuo's cousin."

"Well!" Ye Chen clasped his hands in his fists, "Then she is also a princess, see Princess."

"Third Prince, there is no need to be polite. I came here to tell you."

"I want to be with you."
