1514 Preventing Anything Inappropriate From Happening Between Them

“Why are you asking me that? Shouldn’t you be looking into the mirror yourself?” Yaoyao replied brusquely.

Lu Liangwei pinched Yaoyao’s hand when she heard this. “Why are you talking that way to Youyou, you cheeky girl?”

Yaoyao stuck her tongue out at Lu Liangwei and ran toward Long Yin.

Lu Liangwei looked at Beitang You apologetically. “This child has been spoiled by us. Please don’t hold it against her.”

“I won’t. I actually think that Yaoyao is quite adorable and straightforward.” Beitang You laughed softly and did not take it to heart.

Lu Liangwei shook her head. “You shouldn’t speak up for her. She’s just a little troublemaker.”

Yaoyao stamped her feet when she heard that. “How can you talk about your daughter that way, Mother?”

“Am I wrong?” Lu Liangwei raised an eyebrow. “When haven’t you been a troublemaker?”

Yaoyao got moody and tugged at her royal brother’s sleeve. “Big Brother, did you hear what Mother said?”

Long Yin rubbed her head. “Mother is right.”

Yaoyao let go of his sleeve angrily when she heard that and ran toward Long Yang.

“Father, Mother and Big Brother are bullying me.”

When Long Yang saw how pitiful his daughter looked, he turned to the other two and said, “That’s enough from both of you. Why are you ganging up to bully Yaoyao? You’re punished with copying scriptures when we get home.”

“I have to copy them too?” Lu Liangwei dragged out the words as she darted a look at him.

Long Yang immediately added, “Long Yin has to copy them twice.”

Long Yin, “”

Why was he the one who always ended up punished?

Beitang You found it interesting to watch their interaction as a family. He found himself feeling envious and looking forward to having a family of his own.

Even everyday quarrels felt warm and fuzzy to him. He could tell that their family lived a happy and harmonious life.

It reminded him of how cold his palace was in the Yan Kingdom and it made him feel a little sad.

Yaoyao had her father’s support and she immediately made a face at Long Yin happily, thinking, ‘Bully me, won’t you? Now you’ve got it from Father. Haha!’

Anyone could see how delighted she was.

Long Yin was not as childish as she was and he shook his head with slight exasperation.

Something moved inside Beitang You when he saw how happy and carefree this young girl was.

The next day in the imperial study.

When Long Yang heard Beitang You’s proposal, his almond-shaped eyes narrowed. “You want to marry Princess Yaoyao?”

“Yes,” Beitang You said sincerely. “I hope Your Majesty would be able to agree to the request of a junior.”

Long Yang scoffed and rejected him outright. “You better give up on this. I would never allow my daughter to be married off to a place so far away.”

Beitang You was disappointed when he heard the answer and did not say another word about it.

Long Yang’s expression softened when he saw Beitang You accepted this quietly. He looked at the well-brought-up young man and compromised. “How about this? You’ve come all the way here and it isn’t right for me to let you return to the Yan Kingdom empty-handed. I’ll get the Ministry of Rites to pick a few beauties to return to the Yan Kingdom with you.”

Beitang You smiled a little bitterly when he heard this. The Emperor was not willing to marry off his daughter to him but was trying to push other women to him instead. Did he look like he was lacking women?

Despite thinking that, he answered, “Thank you for your kind intention, Your Majesty. I appreciate it, but there is no need to go through such trouble.”

Long Yang raised an eyebrow. “Aren’t you still single?”

“I am not married yet, but I don’t want to make do with this so easily,” Beitang You said lightly.

Long Yang immediately understood when he heard this. “As you wish.”

“I’ll take my leave first!” Beitang You gave him a fist and palm salute.

After he left the imperial study, he went to say goodbye to Lu Liangwei personally.

They chatted with each other for a while before Lu Liangwei saw him out of the city.

It was only when he left the city gates that Beitang You found out that this was also the day Chu Qi was returning to West Water Frontier with the two princesses in tow.

When he saw Yaoyao next to Ji’er, his eyes brightened with the pleasant surprise.

Lu Liangwei waved goodbye to her two daughters and, after reminding them to take care of themselves, she watched as they climbed up the horse-drawn carriage.

Even though Lu Liangwei and Long Yang agreed for Ji’er to go to West Water Frontier with Lil Qi, they were still worried about it, which was why Yaoyao volunteered to accompany Ji’er there. She claimed to be protecting Ji’er, but was actually supervising them and preventing anything inappropriate from happening between them.

Lu Liangwei was a little exasperated at this, but Long Yang felt much more relieved by this, which was why he allowed Yaoyao to head to West Water Frontier as well.
