Liu 'er's heart almost jumped out of her mouth when she heard this from behind the fence.
She looked at Prince Xian nervously, her body trembling slightly as she waited for his answer.
Prince Xian's face darkened slightly.
He knew how Liu 'er felt about him, but he only had Xiaoyue in his heart.
He didn't love Liu 'er at all and only saw her as a younger sister.
It would be unfair to Liu 'er if he married her just to appease his father.
He said coldly, "Mother, I only see Liu 'er as a younger sister. We're not suitable for each other."
Liu 'er's heart sank when she heard this.
She bit her lip uncomfortably, and her eyes turned red.
Yun Ruoyue quickly held her hand and looked at her worriedly.
Concubine Jing said, "Liuyun, aren't you close to Liu 'er? You don't like to talk to other women, but you like to teach her. This means that you have her in your heart. Are you still wasting your time on an insignificant problem? Don't miss out on your true destiny because of a woman you'll never get. "
"Mother, Xiaoyue is my savior, and Liu 'er is her younger sister. Of course I have to take good care of Liu' er for her. However, I only see Liu 'er as a sister and have no other feelings for her. "
He then continued, "Liu 'er and I are really not suitable for each other. I don't want to hold her back. I only see her as a friend, and I can't marry her. "
"But the emperor is forcing you. You have feelings for Liu 'er anyway. Can't you just marry her to appease the emperor?" Concubine Jing said anxiously.
"If I marry Liu 'er to appease my father, what kind of person would I be? Would that be fair to Liu 'er? "Prince Xian said coldly.
Concubine Jing said, "Feelings can be cultivated. There are so many couples in this world who don't even meet before marriage, but they still live happily ever after. If you can treat Liu 'er as a friend, you can cultivate feelings with her. When you have children, you might fall in love with her. "
Prince Xian shook his head helplessly. "Mother, I won't marry Liu 'er no matter what you say. This matter ends here. If you continue to force me, I'd rather not marry for the rest of my life. "
He did not want to develop a relationship with Liu 'er. He only cared about the feeling of love at first sight.
The scene of him and Xiao Yue meeting for the first time flashed through his mind. At that time, although Xiao Yue was a woman dressed as a man, his heart would pound when he saw her.
This was completely different from how he felt about Liu 'er.
"Your Highness, do you hate me that much? You'd rather not marry for the rest of your life than have me? "At this moment, Yun Ruoliu's indignant voice came from behind the fence.
Then, she ran towards Prince Xian in tears, looking at him with teary eyes.
Yun Ruoyue quickly followed her and comforted her, "Liu 'er, don't be sad. Feelings can't be forced. You and the prince are not fated to be together. I believe that your fate is waiting for you somewhere. You will definitely find it. "
As she spoke, she reached out and touched Yun Ruoliu's shoulders.
Yun Ruoliu said unhappily, "Sister, do you know? I envy you so much. I know that Prince Xian has always liked you. A person like me is not worthy of him. I shouldn't have wishful thinking! "
Yun Ruoyue was startled. So Liu 'er already knew about this.
Prince Xian immediately said, "Liu 'er, I'm sorry. Wang has always only treated you as a younger sister, so Wang can't marry you!"
"Younger sister?" Liu 'er cried, "Who would treat a sister who isn't related by blood so well? Could it be that you're not treating me well because you like me? Could it be that your gentleness and patience were all fake? "
Prince Xian said helplessly, "Because you're Xiao Yue's younger sister, Wang naturally has to take good care of you. I'm sorry, Wang didn't think things through before and caused you to misunderstand. In the future, Wang won't do that again! "
If he had known that Liu 'er would misunderstand him so deeply, he wouldn't have taught her to read.
Hearing Prince Xian's resolute words, Liu 'er felt like her heart was being cut by a knife.
She looked at him in pain, "So you're only good to me because of my older sister. If it wasn't for my older sister, you wouldn't even look at me, right?"
"Everyone likes my older sister and I also want to be as outstanding as my older sister. So I've been working hard to study and learn how to read. I hope to be as good as my older sister and be worthy of you. But I've found that no matter how hard I work, I'm not worthy of you. You're a high and mighty prince. How could someone like me dare to dream of marrying you? "
"Liu 'er, don't belittle yourself. You're actually very smart and you're gentle and kind. I'm actually not as good as you think. I believe that you'll definitely meet a better man than me. "Prince Xian said in pain.
Liu 'er shook her head in pain, "No! You've always been good. It was my wishful thinking. I should have known better and shouldn't have dreamed of something that didn't belong to me! "
After saying this, she let out a sigh, "Your highness, I'm sorry. I've disturbed you! Thank you for always caring and caring for me. I owe you too much and I can't even repay you. You don't have to feel sorry. I should be the one apologizing! "
"Concubine Jing, thank you for your good intentions. You can't force your highness to marry anyone. Please don't force his highness to marry anyone. My older sister is right. You can't force matters of the heart. "
With that, she gazed deeply at Prince Xian. "Your highness, I wish you all the best. I hope that you'll find a good match. Goodbye!"
As Liu 'er spoke, she wiped her tears sadly and ran out.
"Liu 'er!" Yun Ruoyue saw this and quickly chased after her.
"Liu 'er!" Prince Xian wanted to chase after her as well, but Concubine Jing pulled him back.
Concubine Jing sighed, "Liuyun, don't chase after her. I understand now! If you don't like Liu 'er, don't treat her too well. Don't give her hope. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. "
"I only taught her to read and write because I didn't want others to bully her. I didn't expect her to fall so deeply." Prince Xian said helplessly.
Concubine Jing patted his shoulder, "I'm sorry, my son. I shouldn't have forced you to marry Liu 'er. I'm the one who caused this situation. I've let Liu 'er down. I'll go to The Emperor of Li's estate to apologize to her. "
She thought that Liuyun would marry Liu 'er if she called her to Prince Xian's estate.
It turned out that it was wishful thinking on her part.
Feelings couldn't be forced.
However, Liuyun didn't like anyone. How could he get married in a month?
If he couldn't settle down in a month, the emperor would randomly choose a wife for him. He'd be in even more pain then.
-
After Yun Ruoyue ran out of Prince Xian's estate, she saw Liu 'er standing at the door and crying.
She quickly walked over and gently patted her shoulder, "Liu 'er, are you alright?"
"Older sister," Liu 'er cried and threw herself into Yun Ruoyue's arms, "Older sister, my heart hurts so much! Is it because I'm terrible that Prince Xian doesn't like me? "
"That's not it. Liu 'er, you're very outstanding and beautiful. Everyone likes you. "Yun Ruoyue comforted her.
