Keep your voice down. Are you trying to look glamorous dressed as a forced lover?

Ji Mingzheng thought to himself, "So it's not just acting; she really doesn't dislike me."

Everything she said before was true.

Mingzheng's gaze fell on the amputated leg. She might not mind, or perhaps she didn't understand, that people with disabilities in both legs are often a real problem.

Even after leaving his wheelchair, he wanted to help her, but various problems and limitations might arise.

Even though he has never given up riding and archery, even though he is still a killing general on horseback, and even though he is in a wheelchair, he is still stronger than countless people, and can even protect her.

However, in critical moments, if any unexpected situation arises or a crisis occurs, they may not only fail to help her, but may even become a burden to her.

Compared to him, Wen Sheng might be a better match for her.

Just as he was about to speak frankly, Wen Sheng arrived.

Besides looking at Ji Mingzheng, Wen Sheng also wanted to talk to him.

Because of their good relationship with Ji Mingzheng, the two of them could enter the house without being informed; they knew everything at a glance.

Unexpectedly, Li Qingyan was also there.

"Your Highness?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Li Qingyan's eyes: "Wen Sheng, you're here. We were just talking about you. Look, Ji Mingzheng has a little pimple on the corner of his lip, exactly the same as yours."

Wen Sheng touched the red mole on the corner of her lips, then looked at Ji Mingzheng, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.

"Please sit down." Ji Mingzheng also had a smile on his face, happy for Wen Sheng's arrival, but when his gaze swept over Li Qingyan's eyes as he looked at Wen Sheng, his jawline couldn't help but tighten a little.

Li Qingyan watched them sitting together. The two had completely different styles, yet each had their own unique charm, and both had the same red mole on the corner of their lips.

She started missing her phone terribly again; it would be so interesting to capture this moment on camera.

The regret in her eyes puzzled Wen Sheng: "What is Your Highness regretting?"

"It's a pity that I couldn't capture the two of you together; it was a very interesting scene of you sitting together."

"We can ask an artist to paint it." Wen Sheng looked at the red pimple on Ji Mingzheng's lips, then at the smiling Li Qingyan, and completely understood her thoughts. He also wanted to record this moment.

"That's certainly possible. Let's invite him sometime. After it's drawn, it can serve as a memento and let everyone see the charm of the number one handsome man."

Li Qingyan thought that as long as the painter's skills were good enough to capture some of Wen Sheng's spirit, such a painting would be preserved and would surely be loved by countless people in the future.

Wen Sheng blushed and said, "Isn't Your Highness exaggerating a bit?"

Seeing how happily they were chatting, Ji Mingzheng thought the two of them standing together looked like a perfect match, like a golden couple.

He thought it was time for them to stand together.

Wen Sheng seems to like His Highness too...

Just then, Li Qingyan suddenly looked at him:

"It's no exaggeration. Just ask Ji Mingzheng. If the two of you were to appear together, you would definitely be loved by a lot of people. It would make people have a hard time choosing and end up wanting both of you."

Ji Mingzheng was already lost in thought, and upon hearing this, his heart skipped a beat.

When she talks about others, perhaps she's also talking about herself?

She wanted him, and she also wanted Wen Sheng?

Wen Sheng noticed Ji Mingzheng's absent-mindedness and the strange atmosphere when he came in, and he quickly made an excuse to leave.

Only Ji Mingzheng and Li Qingyan remained in the hall. Li Qingyan chatted with Ji Mingzheng for a few more minutes before pressing for an answer she hadn't received yet:

"Ji Mingzheng, you still haven't answered me."

Ji Mingzheng said truthfully, "Your Highness, I am very happy that you don't mind my leg disability, but my leg is sometimes really inconvenient. There is only so much I can do to help you. Playing along with you is probably the most I can do."

He had finished reading the storybook His Highness had given him, and he had even read the later parts of the story. The disabled general in the story, unable to live like a normal person, turned into a hedgehog with all his struggles and inferiority complex. He wasn't a hedgehog, but he could understand those struggles and hesitations, and even empathize with them. He was also a person who cared about his reputation and didn't want to lose face in front of her, and he was even more afraid of delaying her affairs.

If His Highness were just an heir from an ordinary family, he might not think so much, but she is a princess.

Now that His Majesty is in a coma, and His Highness's condition is also special, with the Wise Prince eyeing us covetously, if we are not careful, not only the throne, but even our lives will be in danger.

But Her Highness's life involves far more than just her; it involves countless people and the fate of the nation.

Even a small mistake can lead to a huge error, and he didn't want his disability to cause trouble.

"Your Highness, your status is too special. Rather than finding someone who might cause unexpected problems, it would be better to find someone else."

His tone was somewhat strained, but he still said, "I think Wen Sheng likes you, you can choose Wen Sheng."

Wen Sheng gave in last night, but there are clearly feelings between them.

He shouldn't have interfered.

Li Qingyan frowned: "I will ask Wen Sheng myself, and besides, you are both my concubines, why can't we choose together?"

"I know my identity is special, that's why I came to you, but you pushed me to him. Is it because you don't like me?"

She asked in bewilderment, "If you're concerned about your legs, then you don't need to, because it doesn't affect anything."

She thought that, given Ji Mingzheng's personality, if he liked her, he shouldn't refuse her.

Unless he doesn't like her.

Ji Mingzheng's eyes flickered. He hadn't thought much about it before; it turned out she really wanted to choose both.

He stood there in a daze, not saying a word for a moment, but he thought that it was impossible for it not to have an impact, and if he really agreed to her, then his relationship with Wen Sheng would also change.

He had seen two brothers turn against each other because they fell in love with the same person, and he had also seen two very good sisters fall out because of a man.

Losing a friend is the least of your worries; often, all three suffer greatly, not only from unhappiness but also from family feuds.

Behind him stand countless soldiers and his family. His disability has already brought great trouble to the Ji family; he cannot bring any more trouble.

Unless, of course, the marriages between the three of them are merely arranged and lack any genuine affection.

But his relationship with Wen Sheng and His Highness went beyond a simple marriage...

Emotions are the most uncontrollable thing, and he didn't want all three of them to suffer in the end, or even involve their families.

Their identities are all too special.

"Your Highness, I have indeed considered legs, but I hesitate, not only for that reason, but also because I feel that Wen Sheng is more suitable for you."

Ji Mingzheng didn't say anything about how the three of them would suffer, because it was a bit of an overreaction, and he didn't want His Highness to think that he valued Wen Sheng more.

Because she now holds a very important place in his heart.

Li Qingyan did not expect him to have this attitude or to give her this answer.

She had assumed their conversation would go smoothly.

She wasn't confident about Song Qinian because he was difficult to deal with.

But Ji Mingzheng and she had always had a good relationship. When she was sick before, he was the only one who came to her aid and even stayed with her all night. Even when she bit him, he wasn't angry.

She even pestered him to fart so they could both embarrass themselves, and he blushed and finally farted.

Even with acting, he didn't adapt but still obeyed.

She thought he liked her somewhat.

But he actually used Wen Sheng to reject him, which annoyed Li Qingyan.

Song Qinian refused, and he actually refused too; that's not right.
