The old eunuch comforted him, "Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Princess is just temporarily confused. She will figure it out in a few days."

"I hope so." The emperor stared at Baili Yue and held her hand tightly.

"I have lost too much, and I don't want anyone to leave me again. Yue'er, you must stay by my side."

The emperor had made up his mind and would never allow Baili Yue's request. At the same time, he also thought of Rong Mingxuan's words today and had a new plan in mind.

"Gao De, what do you think of Vice Admiral Rong's suggestion?"

If Baili Yue married Rong Mingxuan, she would not mention the cancellation of the princess's status. Daughters must get married, and Rong Mingxuan was young and promising, both civil and military, and was the most suitable candidate.

The emperor's eyes flickered, and he felt more and more that this method was feasible.

The old eunuch bowed his head and answered respectfully: "Deputy General Rong is indeed very outstanding. Many wealthy families in the capital want to marry into the Rong family."

The emperor nodded with satisfaction: "You are right, he is indeed a good choice. I believe that he will treat Yue'er well."

At this time, Baili Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly. She had actually woken up a long time ago, but she didn't want to open her eyes or face her father. She didn't expect to hear such a decision.

Her father wants to marry her to Rong Mingxuan!

Baili Yue felt mixed emotions. She closed her eyes, listened to her father's whispers, and slowly fell asleep again.

In her dream, she returned to the hunting ground. She wore men's clothes and quietly went into the forest to hunt. She accidentally encountered a tiger, ran away in panic and called for help, and finally met Rong Mingxuan...

Afterwards, she dreamed of many past events that she had once ignored, and those memories became unusually clear in her dreams.

Rong Mingxuan remembered every word she said, and every time he returned to the capital, he would bring her all kinds of new things.

However, there was no place for Rong Mingxuan in her heart, and she even forgot the previous agreement. In a fit of anger, she destroyed all the gifts he sent her.

Baili Yue slowly opened her eyes. The room was quiet. After her father and the old eunuch left, she was left alone.

She stared blankly at the bed curtain with a complicated expression on her face, and whispered softly: "Rong Mingxuan..."

She felt very sorry. However, this was just a feeling of guilt. She had no love for Rong Mingxuan, so she would not agree to marry him.

"I'm sorry, Rong Mingxuan, I still can't marry you."

Just then, the door was gently pushed open, making a slight sound.

Baili Yue quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. She was not sure how to face everyone when she woke up, especially if it was her father who came in.

A heavy footstep gradually approached the bed, obviously a man. Baili Yue's heart was in turmoil, and his hands under the quilt clenched into fists.

The man stopped in front of the bed, and his eyes seemed to penetrate her tightly closed eyes, making her feel very uneasy.

"Yue'er..." the man called softly.

Baili Yue's body trembled. Why did this voice sound so familiar?

"Yue'er! Yue'er!" the man called again, trying to wake her up.

She suddenly opened her eyes and saw a eunuch she had never seen before, reaching out his hand to touch her.

Baili Yue's face suddenly changed and she screamed in fear: "Ah! You, who are you..."

Before he could finish his words, his mouth was tightly covered.

The eunuch stared at her with his bright black eyes and whispered, "Hush, don't make a sound, it's me."

"Mmmmm..." Baili Yue struggled hard, her eyes wide open with fear.

Who is this person and how did he get into her room?

"It's me! Yue'er, it's me!" the eunuch said anxiously while removing the disguise on his face.

As the skin was torn off, a familiar face appeared before his eyes, and Baili Yue's fear slowly turned into surprise.

"elder brother?"

"Yue'er." The person who came was Baili Ye, who was disguised as a eunuch. He sneaked into the palace and went straight to his sister.

Seeing his long-lost brother, Baili Yue felt both relieved and aggrieved. "Brother, why? Why did you embark on this path of rebellion?"

"Are you okay? Where are you now? Mother, is she okay?" Baili Yue asked rapidly, his eyes fixed on Baili Ye.

When the news of Baili Ye's rebellion leaked, the emperor sent troops to capture him, but he disappeared like a gust of wind, and also disappeared with Concubine Wu who was practicing in the nunnery.

Baili Yue was almost unable to stand when she heard the news. Her brother and mother suddenly disappeared, leaving her alone in the palace.

She asked herself silently: Why didn’t you take me with you?

To her, the status of a princess was far less important than being reunited with her family. She only wanted to be with her mother and brother, and nothing else mattered.

"Yue'er, you have suffered a lot." Baili Ye suddenly appeared, his eyes full of pity, and gently stroked Baili Yue's thin cheek.

Baili Yue's eyes were moist and tears couldn't stop falling.

"Take me away, brother. I want to go with you. We can leave here and find a quiet place to live."

She no longer considered the consequences. No matter what her brother did, she only hoped that her family could be reunited. She wanted to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the capital, find a piece of pure land, and never step into this place of conflict again.

That way, their father might not find them.

"Brother, take me away!" She snuggled tightly in Baili Ye's arms.

Baili Ye had a complicated look in his eyes and patted his sister's back gently.

"Be patient, Yue'er, we will be reunited soon."

"Why do we have to wait? Why can't we leave now?" Baili Yue was puzzled. She didn't want to stay in this place that broke her heart.

Baili Ye wiped away her tears with a serious expression.

"You can't leave yet, Yue'er. We need you to be an insider in the palace."

"When I succeed and take back everything that belongs to me, we can be together forever! Mother will also come back to us. Then, the world will belong to us."

His words revealed a strong determination.

It turned out that Baili Ye had never given up the idea of ​​fighting for the throne. That escape was just a temporary way to avoid being convicted. He had been secretly planning and preparing to act again.

Baili Yue's existence was the key to his plan. She was his biological sister, so she was naturally willing to lend him a helping hand.

Seeing his sister so haggard, Baili Ye felt mixed emotions and became more determined to achieve his goal as soon as possible. He wanted Baili Yue to live a happy life and not suffer any harm.

Hearing his brother's words, Baili Yue opened his eyes wide in surprise. "Brother, what do you mean?"

"Yue'er, this throne has always been mine." Baili Ye's voice was low and firm.

"If Baili Yan hadn't interfered, the throne would have been mine long ago. Once I ascend the throne, I can bring mother back to the palace, and our family can be reunited."

"Brother!" Baili Yue called in a low voice, feeling both surprised and uneasy.

Baili Yue's heart was shocked and he took a step back involuntarily, shaking his head.
