My Princess and Crown Prince Are Revived
Chapter 384 Unclear Explanation

Chapter 384: Chapter 384 Unclear Explanation

The faces of the two princes turned cold in an instant.

The atmosphere in the tent was somewhat off.

But alas, Chu Baihan and Jian Yun did not notice.

"Good, thank you, Princess and Sister Jian Yun," Zhu Xinyue cooed.

"This general is grateful to the Princess for saving Yueyue’s life. I cannot imagine what I would do if anything happened to her..."

Zhu Yinian quickly knelt to thank Chu Baihan.

"General Zhu, there is no need for thanks. How could I, as Princess, stand by and watch Xinyue in danger? I believe Lord Zhu must be very anxious waiting at home, and the military camp is not a place suitable for recovery. Please take Xinyue back to the Zhu Residence immediately," said Chu Baihan patiently.

Zhu Yinian opened his mouth to respond to the command.

But at that moment, Zhu Xinyue spoke first.

"No, I can go back on my own. There’s no need to trouble big brother," she said.

She did not even glance at Zhu Yinian, and her tone was somewhat cold.

Everyone felt that Zhu Xinyue was acting a bit strangely at this time.

Wasn’t she the one who used to be most attached to and concerned about Zhu Yinian?

Zhu Xinyue took a deep breath and then struggled to her feet.

"Princess, I am not so weak. I can go back on my own," she said.

After saying that, she began walking towards the exit.

"Yueyue, big brother will take you back," said Zhu Yinian as he stepped forward and grabbed Zhu Xinyue’s hand.

But Zhu Xinyue forcefully shook off his hand.

She put on a pale smile and whispered to Zhu Yinian, "Big brother, I’m so tired. I want to go back now. You are a general and have many things to take care of, so there’s no need to waste time on me."

As she spoke these words, her gaze was cold and distant.

"Yueyue..."

A sharp pain struck Zhu Yinian’s heart.

Why had Yueyue suddenly become so indifferent towards him?

This feeling was truly unbearable.

But Zhu Xinyue did not seem to have any intention of explaining.

She nodded at everyone and then left with firm resolve.

"Nan Xing, follow her and make sure Miss Zhu returns safely to the Zhu Residence," Chu Baihan said, giving Nan Xing a look.

"Yes, Princess."

"General Zhu, are you very upset right now? Perhaps you should not chase after her. Stay in the camp and think carefully about what exactly you did wrong," Chu Baihan said to Zhu Yinian before she left.

"Princess, what you said just now means..." Jian Yun followed Chu Baihan, wanting to voice her own confusion.

But before she could, Chu Baihan interrupted her.

"Given our relationship now, do you still need to be so formal with me? Just call me Baihan," Chu Baihan said patiently to Jian Yun.

Jian Yun quickly adjusted.

She smiled and said, "Okay, Baihan. The question I wanted to ask is, why is Xinyue suddenly harboring resentment toward General Zhu? And what did you mean by what you said to him?"

"It must have been something Xie Feifei said to her. She and Zhu Yinian are not biological siblings, and they must have had feelings for each other. But the things Zhu Yinian is doing are pushing Xinyue further and further away," Chu Baihan sighed and then spoke with a complex tone.

Zhu Xinyue must still love Zhu Yinian in her heart.

But...

She also harbored resentment.

It would probably be better for her to let it all out.

"Sigh, I feel the same way. Xinyue must be feeling extremely wronged. Whatever the reason, General Zhu’s previous trust in Xie Feifei was a form of harm to Xinyue," Jian Yun said, nodding seriously in agreement.

Yan Lian and Yan Lin were standing not far away, listening to every word of the conversation between Chu Baihan and Jian Yun.

Yan Lian sneered, then said sarcastically, "Is that girl named Zhu Xinyue really that great? Both the eighth prince’s wife and Yunyun care so much about her."

Seeing that Yan Lin did not speak, Yan Lian could not resist egging him on, "Big brother, why don’t you go and snip that girl off? Then there’d be no one left to compete with us for a wife."

The followers behind them: "..."

So, this is what Prince Nine is like.

Yan Lin granted Yan Lian an eye roll out of mercy before sneering, "I do not kill the innocent recklessly."

"But she has taken away the eighth prince’s wife’s care," continued Yan Lian, egging on.

"No matter what, I hold the highest position in the eyes of your eighth prince’s wife. Just now, she even stabbed Feng Shan with a knife for me. As long as I’m alive, those frivolous matters will ultimately hold little weight in her heart," Yan Lin replied with another sneer, his tone quite proud.

Yan Lian: "..."

He really couldn’t tell whether he was envious or just having a laugh in his heart now.

How come the words of brother eight sound like he’s the eternally favored enchantress of the Imperial Palace?

"Hmm? Are you two eavesdropping?"

Chu Baihan turned her head and saw Yan Lian and Yan Lin, asking with a strange tone.

"It was Yan Lian who pulled me over here; he’s worried Miss Jian is paying too much attention to other girls and neglecting his feelings," Yan Lin immediately pushed Yan Lian away and complained with a serious face.

That’s right, the illustrious Prince Eight of Yan Country had actually stooped to tattling.

And what’s more, he seemed quite practiced at it.

Hearing his words, Yan Lian was both frantic and embarrassed.

How could brother eight reveal his thoughts like this?

Jian Yun bowed her head; it was not only her face that was blushing, but even her ears had turned pink.

"Prince, you misunderstand. I think of Xinyue as a sister. She’s sensible and well-behaved, a truly lovely sister," Jian Yun said helplessly, trying to explain to Yan Lian.

A prince... having such preposterous thoughts?

Her and Xinyue, they were just two girls, could they possibly develop another kind of relationship?

"I don’t care, you should only have eyes for me. Neither men nor women can compete with me for the position of official wife... no, not just the official wife, even the position of concubine is out of the question!" Yan Lian said, lifting his head and puffing out his chest as he spoke loudly.

He wasn’t afraid of losing face; what he wanted was to secure his status.

Not too far away, many of Yan Country’s followers dropped their jaws in surprise.

So, this is what Prince Lian is like when he encounters true love.

"Alright, alright, Prince, I understand what’s on your mind. If we have something to say, I can go to your tent," Jian Yun said with a tense tone.

She was truly afraid that if the conversation continued, Prince Lian might utter some more astonishing remarks.

It was utterly embarrassing.

"Alright then, let’s go to the tent and whisper," said Yan Lian, rubbing his hands energetically as he headed towards Jian Yun with an expectant tone.

The looks on everyone’s faces were quite complex.

In broad daylight, Prince Nine and Miss Jian were off to the tent for a discussion?

"No, no, it’s not what you think; I genuinely just want to explain things clearly to the prince," Jian Yun stamped her foot in desperation as she noticed the looks from everyone.

"Oh~~~~ We understand, it’s just talking, nothing else," the crowd exhaled deeply before speaking with loaded meaning.

Jian Yun: "..."

It seemed this matter was beyond explanation.

Left with no choice, Jian Yun had to hurry away with Yan Lian.
