”I say, third brother Nan, do you even have any shame? You actually lied to me, a little girl! ” Jiang Zilan, who was standing to one side, jumped up and pointed at the friendly man in blue clothes, as if he was looking at a beast. After that, he clasped his hands at the ninth princess, ”Your Highness, please do not believe what third brother Nan says. He is intentionally trying to cheat us. He has cheated almost all those who were able to reach the second floor of the Mu Yun Tower. ”

”Is the crown prince playing the zither really that nice to listen to? Why... Never heard of it? ” Princess Wuyou asked with a puzzled expression. However, she had a thought that she wanted to hear it from him. If she hadn't heard it with her own ears, she didn't believe that there would be someone in this world who could play better than Qin Guan.

It was the first time in her life that she had been so obsessed with someone. There was a gentleness in that person's melody.

Princess Wuyou's words caused Jiang Zilan to feel a little awkward. His face turned ugly, and he hesitantly said, ”Chief, in short, Your Highness doesn't need to listen to what third brother Nan says!”

”Zi Lan's words are a bit biased. I'm just stating the truth.” When the blue-clothed man smiled, he remained gentle, as if the person being spoken of wasn't him.

Mu Ru Yue, on the other hand, carefully looked at the man before her. She felt a peculiar feeling in her heart. Was this also a member of the Nan Family? The Nan Family and the Seventh Prince's Estate were very close, but they didn't know what sort of person the Third Young Master of the Nan Family was.

”Pui!” Third Brother Nan, you dare to say that you're not cheating? ” Jiang Zilan shouted, unwilling to forgive him.

Princess Wuyou stood beside Mu Ru Yue, looking at the two of them talking to each other. She was still disappointed in her heart. The person she wanted to see was not here at all.

”Stop arguing.” Just as everyone was happily watching them argue, a light voice came from the side. This voice contained a hint of coldness, causing everyone to instantly calm down.

Upon hearing that, Jiang Zilan acted like a mouse seeing a cat and immediately restrained himself. After which, he glared at the blue-clothed man in dissatisfaction. Although Jiang Zishan was delicate and pretty, in reality his temper was explosive.

He would be lazy when he was free, but once he saw anything he was unhappy about, it would explode.

It was also because of this personality that most of the people here were on good terms with him. After all, within the circle of the capital, there weren't many who could speak up for their justice. Everyone had to say some polite words to each other across their smiling faces.

Jiang Zilan was like a limpid person among these people, but he did indeed have the right to do so. After all, Jiang Zilan's family was the mother of the current Crown Prince. A family that belonged to the late empress.

The emperor loved the empress deeply. Although the empress had no choice but to bestow the title of empress now, he had no choice but to comply with requests from the crown prince and the Jiang family. Because of this, many people were dissatisfied. That was the reason why there were Clan disciples like Jiang Zilan.

Jiang Zilan was the only son of his family. If he wanted to be famous, no one would dare to give him face. It could be said that even until today, he knew very little about those dark matters.

How could such a person not be liked by others?

After the blue-clothed young master heard the cold voice, he only smiled. Then, he heard the cold voice not too far away, ”Your Highness, this is not a place that you should be. Please return to the palace as soon as possible.”

”I don't want it.” Princess Wuyou almost blurted out these words.

Then, everyone felt that the atmosphere here had become even colder. Mu Ru Yue looked at the person who spoke. He saw Yun MuRan sitting calmly on a chair, and after hearing that the princess had rejected his suggestion, he opened his eyes slightly.

A pair of piercing phoenix eyes seemed to be able to see through one's heart. This person gave off an ice-cold feeling, yet he had a very good appearance. He was different from the Crown Prince. He had the domineering aura of an official hidden between his brows. No one dared to ignore it.

Princess Wuyou was frightened by her gaze and hid behind Mu Ru Yue. And then... The man's gaze landed on Mu Ru Yue.

This was the first time Yun MuRan had seen the Seventh Princess who was known to the entire city.
