'Isn't that 2nd brother?', from afar there is a pair of eyes watching the couple from inside a carriage. The carriage with a recognizable design belongs to the crown prince, Long Qing.

Long Qing just finished his meeting with his uncle, General Lan. When they were going through the road, he saw his 2nd brother. He asked the driver to stop near the market. Wanting to call his brother over, he just about to tell eunuch Rong to go to his brother. But before he could do that, he realized his brother is not alone there is a lady beside him. Squinting his eyes, he could recognize that silhouette. It was a silhouette he have been seeing for the past 10 years.

"What are they doing together?", it is a well known fact that his brother and Li Xi Rui doesn't see eye to eye.

Eunuch Rong also look at the same direction. Squinting his old eyes, he said, "Are your highness talking about 2nd prince and Princess Anping?".

When Eunuch Rong saw the crown prince is looking at him, he said, "There is a rumor about 2nd prince and Princess Anping. The commoner saw them walking together a few times. It seems like the rumor is true". Eunuch Rong nodding his head while looking at the distinctive couple walking through the crowd.

Long Qing's face fell. It hasn't been that long but Li Xi Rui already eyeing his brother. 'LI XI RUI, this prince had never thought you are that kind of woman!', Long Qing couldn't watch the scene in front of him any longer.

"Go back to the palace!", he dropped the curtain.

Eunuch Rong is befuddled, 'why is his highness suddenly in a bad mood?'. He doesn't dare to delay the crown prince's command, so they left to the palace.

Inside the carriage, Long Qing is still fuming, 'So Li Xi Rui, any one is okay as long it's a royal is it? It hasn't been that long since our engagement has been annulled. Now, in a matter of weeks, you already set your sight on my brother!'.

Long Qing still remembered the little girl she used to be. The little girl he fond of to the point he promised to make her a princess. But as she grew up, the attitude he once thought as refreshing and naive become obnoxious and irritating to him. So he left to make a room for her to grow up. So she could change. Never had he once thought, she will become more and more unruly. The rumors he heard about her attitude and rudeness make him hesitant to fulfill his promise.

When he met Mu Jiu Jiu, the woman is so different from his own fiancee. He started to become closer to her. After 3 years, he started thinking that Mu Jiu Jiu is the one worthy enough to be his princess consort. So, he decided to break their engagement. Li Xi Rui had done enough to humiliate him.

He had thought Li Xi Rui will be making a scene that time in the assembly hall. But contrary to his expectations, Li Xi Rui accepted the annulment calmly. And when he saw her in his imperial aunt's residence, he had thought she changed. Never had he ever thought she will just change target.

Suddenly, he commanded, "Go to the Li residence!".

"Yes, your highness", Eunuch Rong is shocked but not daring to voice his opinion, he could just follow the command.

When they arrived in front of the Li residence, Eunuch Rong had thought the crown prince will step into the residence but contrary to his expectation, he just told them to wait there.
