Mu Xiuhan was deposed as the crown prince and was seriously injured. He was temporarily out of bed. The news from the court spread to the East Palace.

But he knew that Mu Cang and Yan Li's wedding was postponed to the eighth day of the first lunar month, and there were only two days left. So he was extremely anxious, but he couldn't tell Jiang Jingyue his thoughts truthfully.

After breakfast, he lay on the bed alone, thinking hard. After thinking about it, he felt that only his sister Mu Xue could help him.

So he called Jiang Jingyue over: "I haven't seen Xue'er for a while. Send someone to find Xue'er. I have something to say to her."

Jiang Jingyue knew what he was thinking and thought he just wanted to get together with her brother and sister, so she nodded and said, "Yes."

Last night, Jiang Jingyue looked too good after taking care of Mu Xiuhan until the second half of the night. She looked listless. Even if the maid put on an extra layer of rouge and powder, it could not hide the haggardness and dullness between her eyebrows.

As for Mu Xiuhan, every time he looked at her, he would feel strong regret, hating himself for being blind at the beginning, because Jiang Jingyue was a well-educated lady.

But the fact proved that Yan Li was a pearl with hidden light, and Jiang Jingyue was at best a fish eye, which was eclipsed by the pearl.

Now he regrets it, and regrets it every day, and he doesn't know if there is still a chance to make amends.

After receiving the news, Mu Xue quickly arrived at the East Palace with her maid: "Is there something the emperor wants to see you for?"

As soon as she stepped into the palace door, a strong smell of medicine hit her nose. Mu Xue couldn't help but frown: "Why is there such a strong smell of medicine here? How did the palace servants serve? Did they open the windows for ventilation on time?"

The maids were terrified and knelt down to apologize.

Jiang Jingyue smiled and said, "We open the windows for ventilation every day, but the princess comes here often, so she may be too accustomed to the smell of medicine."

"What does the emperor's sister-in-law mean?" Mu Xue raised her eyebrows, "Are you blaming me for not coming to visit my brother in time?"

Jiang Jingyue's smile froze, and she quickly said, "That's what I mean..."

"You all leave." Mu Xiuhan dismissed the palace people, and added, "Everyone go out, and talk to Mu Xue alone."

Jiang Jingyue felt a strange sense of relief in her heart, but she said nothing. She bowed respectfully, turned around and walked out with the palace people.

Mu Xue walked into the inner hall and sat down on a chair near the bed: "What does my brother want to say to you?"

Mu Xiuhan got up with difficulty, his face pale and weak: "Xue'er, you can let Yan Li marry the Ninth Uncle."

Mu Xue frowned, and disgust suddenly appeared on her beautiful face: "Why did my brother mention her for no reason?"

Mu Xiuhan said indifferently: "You also hope that Yan Li will marry the Ninth Uncle, right?"

Mu Xue didn't speak, her expression was very ugly.

In the past month, Yan Li's limelight has completely suppressed her, the legitimate princess. She would subconsciously feel disgusted when she heard Yan Li's name, and she hated her so much that she would disappear completely.

But Yan Li is just like a strange cat with nine lives. No matter how others deal with her, the people who suffer in the end are others.

Her good luck makes people jealous and hate, but they can't do anything about it.

"Yan Li is going to marry the Ninth Prince, why are you talking about her now, brother?" Mu Xue said coldly, "Do you suddenly think that Jinx is better than Jiang Jingyue?"

Mu Xiu said calmly, "Yan Li is indeed better than Jiang Jingyue."

"Brother?" Mu Xue looked at him in surprise, "What are you talking about?"
