The princes all knew that Mu Yunge had been suffering from a series of minor ailments lately, so they said, “Then you can come to us when you’re better. Why go to Zhou Hao?”
Seeing their displeased expressions, Zhou Hao felt a surge of satisfaction.
However, he maintained a blank expression on his face.
Soon, Mu Yunge was surrounded by several princes. Afraid that they would touch her, Mu Yunge held Yan Fei’s hand tightly.
Seeing this, the Second Prince said, “Ninth Sister, let’s play together. We don’t need to bring the eunuch. Let him go aside, and we play Cuju (ancient Chinese football).”
Hearing this, Yan Fei couldn’t help but look at Mu Yunge.
Mu Yunge scoffed, “What’s so fun about Cuju? My mother said I’m a princess, and I must always maintain an elegant and dignified demeanor. I can’t play this kind of running-around game with you guys and ruin my image!”
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince and the others couldn’t help but laugh.
“Don’t worry, we’re in the palace now. No one knows what you’re like there except us. Once we’re out, you’ll still be an elegant and dignified little princess!”
“That won’t do either. One must be consistent inside and out. From today onwards, I’m going to be a lady. How about this? I’ll be the referee, and you guys play!” Mu Yunge said.
“Alright! It’s settled then!” The Third Prince laughed.
Soon, the princes started kicking the ball, but they were clearly ganging up on Zhou Hao, deliberately kicking the ball at him.
After this happened several times, Mu Yunge shouted, “Don’t hurt people intentionally! If you don’t play properly, I’m leaving.”
Hearing this, the princes finally started playing properly.
[Ding! The hero’s love points to the host is +10.]
Just then, Xiao Hei promptly reported the change in Zhou Hao’s love point.
Hearing this, Mu Yunge said helplessly to Xiao Hei, “This time, the hero is much easier to win over than the villain! I’ll settle accounts with Yan Chen later!”
Hmph, his love point for her is still -8!
What a waste of how good she’s been to him!
However, considering the blood feud that had wiped out his entire family, Mu Yunge had no choice but to endure it!
After finishing the game of Cuju, Mu Yunge bid farewell to the princes and was then led away from the Imperial Garden by Yan Fei.
After Mu Yunge left, the princes immediately grinned maliciously at Zhou Hao, then said to the eunuchs they had brought, “Surround him! Don’t let him escape! Hmph, a mere palace maid’s son dares to try and steal our Ninth Sister? He’s asking for a beating!”
The eunuch beside Zhou Hao panicked, saying, “Your Highnesses, you can’t bully our Master like this!”
“Can’t bully him?! Hmph, we’ll bully him anyway, so what?!” The Second Prince rolled up his sleeves and charged at Zhou Hao like a cannonball.
Seeing this, Zhou Hao immediately dodged, causing the Second Prince to miss and nearly fall headfirst into the flowerbed.
Then, Zhou Hao took a leap and dashed away.
Seeing this, the Second Prince roared, “What are you all standing there for? Grab him! How dare he run?! Zhou Hao, you can hide forever, but you’ll get what’s coming to you! You just wait!”
Just then, the Emperor appeared and saw the Second Prince running in the Imperial Garden. He scolded him, “Second Prince, what kind of behavior is this? What are you doing running around in the Imperial Garden?”
Seeing the Emperor, the Second Prince immediately wilted and said, “Father, we were playing a game with the Fourth Brother! Who knew he wouldn’t listen? So I chased after him. I won’t do it again.”
Hearing this, the Emperor shook his head helplessly and said, “It’s good that you know you were wrong.”
But how could the Emperor not know what had happened?
However, he had so many sons, and he didn’t have the energy to cultivate them all. If it weren’t for Xiao Jiu’er’s affection for the fourth son, he wouldn’t have cared about this son at all.
