"Not at all." Xue Duan Sheng was overjoyed as he continuously raised his glass.

The Emperor fiercely praised Xue Luoyun, and General Yuchi was even more grateful towards him. Everyone was talking about Xue Luoyun during the banquet, and it could be said that Xue Ruyun had the limelight. "Wuuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu, wuu …"

Xue Shaoli and Xue LianDian stood up to toast her, but in their hearts, they were gnashing their teeth in hatred and going mad with jealousy. The smile on their faces looked uglier than crying.

In addition to the dissatisfaction in their hearts, the Third Prince Mu Lingfeng hated Xue Ruyun to the bones. He had meticulously prepared for so long just so that he could obtain the top spot in the Great Hunt. Everyone had displayed their abilities, but he didn't expect that Xue Muyun would unexpectedly snatch the limelight away.

"Everyone, you're too kind. I just did my best." Xue Muyun was extremely modest.

Mu Zhuoyun was sitting diagonally across from him. When he saw Xue Ruoyun's appearance, his heart palpitated, and he found it difficult to control himself. He stared at Xue Luoyun as he drank wine, one cup after the other. After a while, he actually started to faint.

Mu Zhuo could not see clearly, so he drank a few more cups of wine before shaking his head. He looked in the direction of Xue Ruoyun with a focused gaze. He was a bit intoxicated, but he looked even more charming, as if he was smiling at him.

"I may be guilty." As Mu Zhuo thought of this, he was worried that he would lose his composure. Thus, he stood up and said a few words to the Emperor before leaving to blow the wind and sober up the wine.

Mu Zhuoyun had been staring at Xue Ruyun the entire time, but he hadn't expected that there would be someone else who had also been staring at him the entire time. Seeing Mu Zhuo heading out, Xue Lian knew that the opportunity had come and hurriedly followed him out.

Mu Zhuo walked alone outside. The wind had sobered him up. Just as he was about to go back, he saw Xue Lian approaching him leisurely.

"Just now, I drank a few too many cups. I was a bit drunk, so I came out to enjoy the wind." Mu Zhuo did not feel disgust when he saw that it was Xue Lian's painting. After all, the two of them were only friends now.

The two of them walked to a pavilion and sat down.

"Oh, I see. Even though this wine is beautiful, it would still harm your body if you drink too much. " He then smiled coquettishly and took out a cup of soup from behind him: "Just now, this subject's daughter was too drunk, so she was a little drunk. Just now, I had this maid boil some sobering soup for me, and after drinking it, she immediately felt refreshed, this is still half a pot. Your Highness, would you like to drink a cup?"

Mu Zhuo saw her good intentions and didn't want to decline. Just as she was hesitating, she saw Xue Lian pour another cup and drink to his heart's content, deliberately relaxing Mu Zhuo's vigilance.

Seeing that she had drunk quite a bit, Mu Zhuo loosened her mouth and said, "Alright, I'll have a drink with it for now."

When Xue Lian heard this, he was overjoyed. He immediately ordered the maidservants to carry the soup up and personally deliver it to Mu Zhuo.

"Your Highness, after you." Xue Lian handed over the soup with both hands.

"Thank you very much." Mu Zhuo looked at her gratefully and took the cup for herself. She immediately felt that it was not enough and drank until she became abnormally thirsty before ordering another.

Unexpectedly, after a few cups of soup, Mu Zhuoyun did not feel sober at all, but instead felt even more drowsy.

"The effects of this Soup of Awakening aren't that great, why am I still unconscious after drinking it?" Mu Zhuoyun rubbed his glabella and said in a somewhat unclear tone.

"I think His Highness was in a rush when he drank it just now. This medicine hasn't reached its effect yet. Even if it's a godly medicine, it still has to have a process right?" Xue Lian's charming eyes were like silk threads as he calmly poured some more soup.

"Is that so?" Mu Zhuo was noncommittal.

"Yes, Your Highness, please drink slowly." Xue Lian poured out all the soup in the pot.

"Alright." Mu Zhuoyun didn't know why, but when she saw that she was even more enchanting than before, her eyes seemed to have a luster that didn't exist in the past. Furthermore, she was also wearing a dress that was similar in color to Xue Ruoyun's. There was a faint hint of the charm of Xue Ruoyun in her movements. Thus, when she spoke, Mu Zhuzhe also followed her lead.

Mu Zhuoyun took the cup and finished the soup in one gulp. The more he looked at Xue Lian's drawing, the more it resembled Xue Ruoyun.

When Xue Lian saw his eyes gradually become fiery hot, he shyly lowered his head. She glanced at Mu Zhuo from the corner of her eyes and saw him staring at her with a dazed look. His eyes were a little blurred. She ordered the servant girl, "You may leave. I'll call for you later."

"Yes, miss." The maidservant agreed and left.

"Your Highness, Your Highness …" Xue Lian waved his hand in front of Mu Zhuoyun's eyes, his red lips slightly parted as he lightly shouted.

"Oh, ah. What's the matter? " Mu Zhuoyun reacted.

"Does Your Highness feel better?" Xue Lian asked with concern.

"Alright, it's much better now." Mu Zhuozhi replied. He did not feel dizzy anymore. Although he was at a loss for words, his body was getting hotter for some unknown reason.

"Maybe it's because I drank too much just now." Mu Zhuo did not think too much and decided to stand up to return to the banquet.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince …" Xue Liangran panted as he shouted.

Hearing her shout, Mu Zhuoyun's heart softened, and her body became hotter.

"What's the matter?" Mu Zhuo swallowed his saliva and controlled himself. He looked at Xue Lian in front of him as if he had turned into two shadows.

"I'm fine..." Xue Lian lowered his head, his long eyelashes covering his lower eyelids. When Mu Zhuoyun looked at her again, he actually looked a bit similar to Xue Luoyun, to the point that he even looked more and more similar, as if the person sitting there was Xue Luoyun. He rubbed his eyes and looked again. The person sitting there had once again become Xue Lian's painting.

"Your Highness, are you feeling better?" Xue Lian asked with concern as she stood up and walked closer to Mu Zhuo. Whether intentionally or unintentionally, she rubbed her body against him.

Mu Zhuo could feel her body softening as a delicate fragrance wafted from her body, making people feel very comfortable.

"It smells so good." Mu Zhuoyun could not help but say.

"Your highness, the Crown Prince is joking. Why can't your daughter smell it?" Xue Lian chuckled lightly as he covered his mouth and snickered. As he spoke, he lifted up his sleeves and sniffed beside his nose.

"The sleeves?" Xue Lian asked.

When Mu Zhuo saw her fair skin and snow-white skin, she felt an intense urge rise up within her twin peaks. Her brain seemed to be unable to control itself as it stared at her, unable to shift its eyes away.

"No." Mu Zhuo seemed to be mumbling something.

"Is it a dress?" Xue Lian pointed at his slender waist.

"Nor?"

"Then where is it that you smell?" When Xue Lian saw that no one was around, Mu Zhuo became drowsy and leaned his body closer to Mu Zhuo.

Mu Zhuo lowered his head and saw Xue Lian's half-revealed breasts. They looked like two white jade buns that were about to burst out of his mouth.

"I think it's this …" He pointed at Xue Lian's chest.

"Oh, really?" Xue Lian's cheeks were flushed red and his face was filled with surprise and joy. It seemed that Mu Zhuoyun had completely lost consciousness.

"Then does Your Highness think I'm beautiful?" Xue Lian pretended to fall and threw himself into Mu Zhuoyun's arms. His breasts pressed against Mu Zhuoyun's chest, and he felt a powerful beat coming from there.

"Beautiful …" Mu Zhuo was completely captivated by Xue Lianshui and could not help but starve to death.

"You're too beautiful, Lin Yun. Can I call you that?" Mu Zhuo lowered his head and looked tenderly at Xue Lian's drawing in his arms. In Mu Zhuo's eyes, the person in front of him was Xue Ruoyun.

"Xue Ruyun!" The redness on Xue Lian's face turned ashen. So it turned out that the reason Mu Zhuo gave her so much tenderness was all because he thought of her as Xue Luoyun. She hated her so much that her teeth itched. She, Xue Lian, drew what was bad about her, and what was worse than her, Xue Ruoyun. Why he drank this medicine, he still remembered Xue Muyun in his heart.

Xue Lian's heart was in a state of desolation. In the end, she was unable to obtain the love that Mu Zhuo knew.

"However, I will not lose. Mu Zhuo is mine, and I will still be the winner of this battle." Xue Lian thought bitterly.

"After tonight, the Crown Prince will be mine. Just wait for him to cry."

Xue Lian raised his head. His white-clad body twisted alluringly. The shawl slowly fell off her shoulders, revealing half of her soft breasts.

"You're so beautiful," Mu Zhuoyun muttered to himself as his hand gradually climbed up Xue Lian's drawing waist.

However, Xue Lian drew back a few steps and pushed Mu Zhuoyun away. He was about to refuse. "Don't …"

"Don't go..." Mu Zhuo walked forward a few steps and once again held Xue Lian in his arms.

"Lin Yun, I really like you. Will you like me?" Mu Zhuoyun tightly embraced Xue Lian's painting as he muttered to himself.

"Will you like me?" Mu Zhuo lowered his head and looked at Xue Lian's painting gently. He could not stop himself from confessing.

"I'm sorry about the past. I didn't see my own heart clearly. However, ever since I saw you slap Xue Lian on the street, my opinion of you changed. I felt that you seemed to have changed, or that I might not have understood you before. " Mu Zhuoyun paused for a moment.

"Later on, I heard that you were in the Imperial Garden, fighting wisdom with the Princess Changle. I faintly felt that you had really changed. Then I began to be interested in your affairs and couldn't help but ask about you. At the place where I sold rouge, I already had feelings for you, but at that time I did not know my own feelings. Until that time in the forest, you descended from the sky like a fairy and pulled out your sword to save me. I was unconscious, but I felt relieved to see you. When I woke up, I was so disappointed I couldn't see you. It makes you happy to hear that you are in danger and that you are in danger. "I just realized that you've already hidden this much in my heart." Thinking of that day, Mu Zhuo's heart was exceptionally sweet.

"It's all my fault that I didn't look favorably upon my own heart and recklessly annulled the marriage, hurting you. So now, even if I find out that I am interested in you, I don't have the courage to show you that I'm afraid you'll blame me. " Mu Zhuo recalled the past and regretted it endlessly. He took the opportunity to pour out the words that he had kept hidden in his heart for a long time while drinking.

"This handkerchief was secretly left behind when you were wiping away my blood. I have always kept it, and every time I see it, it's as if I've seen you." Mu Zhuoyun took out the silk handkerchief as he spoke.

"I knew it would be this slut." When Xue Lian saw the silk handkerchief, he was extremely furious. He snatched it away and pretended to tear it apart.
