Zhu Yunyan saw Li Yue's appearance and couldn't help but frown slightly.

  Every time I see Li Yue like this, I always involuntarily soften my heart.

  But now seeing her like this, the image of Shen Youxia with tightly closed lips and staring at herself appears in front of her eyes, as if Shen Youxia's unyielding gaze is even more unforgettable.

  "If nothing's wrong, then you can go down." Zhu Yunyan slightly closed her eyes, one hand supporting her forehead and the other lightly waving her hand.

  Since An Yihans told him about the rumors between himself and Li Yue in Xiyang City at the dinner party back to Nanhou Mansion, Zhu Yunyuan didn't want to have anything to do with Li Yue anymore.

  Zhu Yunyan even thought that the Rui Wangfu should consider replacing its housekeeper and sending Li Xixiang's family to a distant estate, so as to prevent malicious people from stirring up trouble again.

  "Your Highness, if I have done something wrong and displeased you, please tell me so that I can correct it."

  Originally thought that pretending to be pitiful would get Zhu Yunyan's attention, but never expected to be driven away by Zhu Yunyan instead.

  Li Yue was indeed flustered.

  She couldn't fathom Zhu Yunyan's thoughts, and to the wise king who was high above, she was just the daughter of the housekeeper, relying only on the emotional ties that had grown since childhood.

  But for himself, it was an opportunity to climb high, while for Zhu Yunyan, it was something that could be discarded at any time and place.

  "Li Yue, we've grown up together, I don't know if you have any other thoughts in mind, but I've heard the rumors spreading around Xiyang City. Can't let these idle gossip spread further. We have a bond of growing up together, if you want to use this bond to achieve your own goals, I advise you to give up on that idea early."

  After all, Zhu Yunyan still couldn't bear to be too harsh on Li Yue and didn't make things clear, which was already a show of mercy and favor from Zhu Yunyan as the prince towards Li Yue.

  Unfortunately, Li Yue didn't think so.

  When Zhu Yunyan said this to herself, she knew that Rui Wang was letting her give up on him.

  But if I don't take a chance, how can I be true to myself after all these years of hard work.

  Li Yue fell to the ground with a thud, "Your Highness, I indeed had improper thoughts about you, but I never thought of gaining anything. I just wanted to be by your side forever, even if it's as a lowly maid. Your Highness, please believe my sincerity towards you, I really have never coveted the noble status of Rui Wang Fu."

  "Li Yue, isn't it clear what I'm saying? How dare you be so presumptuous?"

  Li Yue knelt on the ground with an air of inevitability, causing Zhu Yunyan's anger to surge up. After scolding her, he didn't even give Li Yue a chance to retort, and directly shouted:

  "Come on in!"

  Mo Yi, who had been guarding the door, pushed it open and entered. Seeing Li Yue kneeling on the ground and Zhu Yunyan standing in front of the desk with a furious expression, he couldn't guess what had happened in the fog for a moment.

  "Take her down for me and send her to Li Xixiang, tell him that the people of the Li family will leave Rui Wangfu immediately tomorrow and go to Zhenyang City to see the villa."

  Judging from the situation and tone, Mo Yi also knew that Miss Li Yue must have infuriated Prince Wang. Without saying another word, he directly picked up Li Yue and dragged her towards the courtyard where Li Xi Xiang was.

  Li Yue usually relied on her childhood friendship with Zhu Yunyan and the fact that her father was the manager of the Rui Wang Fu, so she was used to being domineering in the Rui Wang Fu.
