"Your majesty." Bai Yixuan also knelt down, but she was still kneeling on the other side, not together with Mu Yefan at all, "Although Folk Girl is just an ordinary person, I don't wish to be so hasty when it comes to marriage, I'm not willing to marry you."
Mu Yefan never thought that Bai Yixuan would actually have the courage to directly reject him in front of the emperor. Actually Mu Yefan had already thought about it for a long time, and decided to say out his feelings for Bai Yixuan in front of the empress dowager and the emperor.
Mu Yefan did not look up, but he knew that Bai Yixuan's face must be extremely ugly right now. Maybe it was because he said those words out of the blue, or maybe it was because he was disheartened, but Mu Yefan was still unwilling to give up.
"Xiao Bai, marry me. With royal father and Royal Grandmother, they will definitely make the decision for you."
"Your majesty, Folk Girl entered the palace in her capacity as a doctor, it has nothing to do with this matter. If Folk Girl doesn't agree to whatever For the king his royal highness says, I hope your majesty won't listen to my words."
Bai Yixuan was now truly angry, who would have thought that Mu Yefan actually forced her to submit in front of the emperor and the empress dowager? Forget about the fact that the imperial power in Bai Yixuan's heart was not so important to him in the first place, she would definitely not turn back after hearing what she had said to Mu Yefan.
"Bai Yixuan, do you know who you're talking to? And who was the person that you rejected just now?" Mu Haolin frowned, obviously angry.
Bai Yixuan answered in a neither humble nor haughty manner, "Folk Girl knows that Folk Girl is talking to His Majesty, the empress dowager and the For the king his royal highness. The one who refused just now was the For the king his royal highness, but that's what I wanted to say.
"No matter who it is, you have to say it. Just based on what you said today, I can punish you for being contemptuous of the imperial family."
"If that's what the emperor thinks, then the Folk Girl has nothing to say."
"Xiao Bai." Mu Yefan was panicking. What he wanted was just a compromise from Bai Yixuan, and it definitely wasn't what was happening right now.
"Ye Fan, you really like such an incredible person."
Mu Yefan lowered his head and said, "royal father has repaid the debt, it's childrens's fault for being anxious, please do not blame Xiao Bai."
"What, is it because a prince like you was rejected by a Folk Girl? Could it be that you're planning to let this girl continue as she pleases? Could it be that the son of my Mu family can't even decide the marriage of a Folk Girl?"
Mu Yefan knew that all of what Mu Haolin was saying now was something that Bai Yixuan detested deeply, and Bai Yixuan would definitely not yield to him. Even if she really had to sacrifice Bai Yixuan's life, Mu Yefan had clearly recognized all of this.
"Bai Yixuan, I ask you again, are you really not going to agree to Ye Fan's request?"
"Folk Girl cannot agree."
"What a good 'can't agree. Someone …"
"Your Majesty, you've been forcing Wailing Home's savior since early in the morning. Aren't you too disrespecting him?"
With the words "savior", Mu Haolin became quiet. In fact, Mu Haolin had already heard it, the empress dowager was protecting Bai Yixuan, this girl. Although Mu Haolin felt that Bai Yixuan was different from the rest, he didn't expect that within a few days, the empress dowager would have subdued her.
"Please forgive me mother, but your son is in a rush right now."
"A moment of anxiety. It's been so many years already, yet you're still always in a moment of anxiety. When will you be able to get rid of this illness?
Mu Haolin didn't think that the empress dowager would actually use her own death to threaten him. He could only sigh and admit defeat, "Your son knows his wrongs, your son won't participate in the matters of the white girl. This is a matter of the younger generation, we are old now."
Although Mu Yefan's expression was not good, seeing that Royal Grandmother was helping him out, Mu Yefan heaved a sigh of relief. Bai Yixuan had been kneeling at the side the entire time with a pale face, and Mu Yefan knew that it was because of him. But regarding this relationship, Mu Yefan felt that there was no way he could give up.
After Mu Haolin and Mu Yefan left, the empress dowager sighed, "Girl, you're still not getting up? You're really stubborn, and this is only the Wailing Home here, if you speak to the emperor like that, I'm afraid you won't even be able to keep your life right now."
"Xiao Bai still needs to thank the empress dowager for protecting him."
"Tell Wailing Home why you rejected. Don't tell me Ye Fan isn't good? Don't you like Ye Fan?"
"Xiao Bai had heard a poem written in this way before. Life is precious, love is even higher."
The empress dowager nodded. "These words are rather interesting. They suit young people like you who have no regrets. Since that's the case, why didn't you agree to Ye Fan's request?"
"Esteemed empress dowager, don't be anxious. There's still the last two sentences." Bai Yixuan laughed and continued, "The next few sentences are what I like the most, if it's a matter of freedom, I can throw away everything."
The empress dowager had never heard of such bold words. Seeing the gentle heroic look on Bai Yixuan's face, Mu Yefan was not mistaken, the woman in front of her could indeed bring about a miraculous feeling. Bai Yixuan herself was like a treasure that needed to be continuously excavated.
I only heard the first two sentences when I was young. At that time, I already felt that there was something wrong with those words, was there nothing more important than love? I instinctively felt that there was something.
"Can't love and freedom coexist?" This time, Bai Yixuan did not answer very quickly. Instead, she waited for a long time before saying, "Empress Dowager, are you not clearer about this matter than I am?"
"Ye Fan has suffered a lot."
Without knowing why, Bai Yixuan laughed, "I know, when I saw For the king his royal highness, his life was indeed a little bleak."
The empress dowager was interested. "On the contrary, no one has ever told me about Ye Fan's life in the people. Xiao Bai, you and Ye Fan have known each other for such a long time, you should know quite a lot, right?"
Bai Yixuan nodded her head, "I do know a lot. When I first met For the king his royal highness, he was a hunter on the mountain and wore a mask, making him look a little scary. However, his temper was good, and after coming and going she quickly got used to it.
When the empress dowager heard this, her heart jumped. Bai Yixuan quickly replied, "It's a good thing that it's better now."
"For so many years, the Wailing Home had been worried that Ye Fan would not live a good life. It must have been hard on him.
"Even if the For the king his royal highness is a commoner, he is still very powerful. Just like what my little brother said, there is nothing that the For the king his royal highness doesn't know."
The empress dowager was also proud when she heard this, but Bai Yixuan's tone changed as she said, "However, I don't really dare to praise For the king his royal highness's culinary skills. Fortunately, For the king his royal highness met me later on."
"Ye Fan doesn't know how to cook?" The empress dowager also found this interesting as well. "That's true, no one in the imperial family knew how to handle these things, and furthermore, Ye Fan spent most of his time cultivating and writing these things when he was young. It seems like Xiao Bai you took care of Ye Fan for a long time."
"As a person, I didn't easily take credit, but for this matter, I really feel that my hard work is too high, and I hope the empress dowager won't blame me for my nonsense. At that time, after I ate the wild vegetable porridge of For the king his royal highness, I felt that there was nothing worse than this in this world."
The empress dowager was also amused by Bai Yixuan. "Wailing Home would like to see how this Ye Fan's wild vegetable congee has frightened Xiao Bai to such an extent."
"At that time, I gave For the king his royal highness a cat, but now that the cat is dead, the cat and the For the king his royal highness might be fated to be together, and no one can eat anything made by the For the king his royal highness, but the cat is very fond of it, and the For the king his royal highness's skills are also very powerful, so no matter what dangerous prey we catch, the For the king his royal highness will be able to catch them, and our family can be considered to be borrowing the power of the For the king his royal highness to eat venison."
Even if she had lived to this age, Bai Yixuan knew that she had devoted her entire life to this palace. Even if she had become like an intelligent person in the human world, she had only seen the human heart and not the scenery outside.
"Speaking of which, this is quite interesting. When Ye Fan was young, he was the most hardworking in cultivation. I never thought that he would have such a good karma."
Everything that I have experienced is now in the past, the matters between me and the For the king his royal highness are now in the past, in the end, I only know A Mu, and not the current For the king his royal highness. If I could return to the past, I would still be friends with him without hesitation, but now, I will still choose to reject him. "
The empress dowager suddenly felt that the girl in front of her was very clear about everything. She knew what she really wanted, and it would only make her sad, but even so, she still had to persevere with her thoughts.
"But Xiao Bai, Wailing Home can tell that you really like Ye Fan. Even if you like him this much, you can still give up on him."
"Empress Dowager, you don't need to continue probing me. I've already said everything I wanted to say. Although these things are very important in my eyes, I'll definitely persevere."
The empress dowager's thoughts were that Bai Yixuan was the only one who was truly wise, compared to the Song Lingyi who was betrothed to Mu Yefan, if Bai Yixuan accompanied him in the future, she would definitely be able to advise him on many aspects, unlike Song Lingyi who was an ignorant girl.
It was a pity that what Bai Yixuan lacked was only an identity, no matter how powerful her thoughts were, she was just a commoner. And the things that Bai Yixuan had just told her, she did not know how to refute.
"Xiao Bai, Wailing Home feels like he has become a lot more open-minded after talking to you for awhile. He actually feels like there are a lot of things that aren't as important as before."
"I'm very happy to be able to help Empress Dowager Xiao Bai."
"Even though I have many granddaughters, most of them are unable to talk about it at all. After all, it's just taking care of my body, so I can't say anything else. On the other hand, it's actually fate for you, Xiao Bai, to say all these words even though you are clearly so many years younger."
"Xiao Bai thanks the empress dowager for being willing to listen to my nonsense."
"Xiao Bai, Wailing Home asks you if you are willing to become Wailing Home's granddaughter. If Wailing Home wants the Emperor to recognize you as his adopted daughter and grant you the title of princess, then your identity does not have to be so awkward. In front of so many people, Wailing Home believes that you can make more choices.
