Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

The third and fourth princes, who happened to be passing by, had to rein in their horses.

"Is something wrong, my sister?" the Third Prince asked.

He was not as handsome as the Crown Prince, who was like a fairy in a painting, nor as handsome as the Second Prince, who was sharp and edgy. He had a gentle and refined temperament, and was calm and composed.

Although he usually keeps a low profile, those who pay close attention will find him to be unpredictable.

Just like Ying Hengzhi at this moment, she said to 008: "Brother Ba, this Cang Mingyou is indeed extraordinary."

008's tone revealed a hint of excitement as he said, "Host, you're right. This Third Prince is indeed extraordinary. Who would have thought he would be the ultimate winner? Host, choose him!"

"Myna bird, I need to get close to him. Can you help me do that?"

Don't worry, host, helping you is my only goal.

A hint of a smile appeared in Ying Hengzhi's eyes.

"Can't I greet my third and fourth brothers unless there's something wrong?"

Mingluan looked a little aggrieved.

"No, my sister, you've misunderstood. I just thought something was wrong with you," the Third Prince said.

Mingluan playfully scolded, "Third Imperial Brother, Luan'er hasn't returned to the palace for so long. Do you know what's really going on between the Crown Prince and that Ying Yufu?"

The Third Prince understood immediately; so that's what it was about.

The Third Prince said, "Sister Mingluan, I don't know much about this matter either. When I learned about it, it was when Father Emperor dissolved the engagement between Princess Anguo and Second Brother, and then at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he bestowed a marriage upon Princess Anguo and His Highness the Crown Prince."

As for the rest, I was busy with Ministry of Works affairs and was unaware of them.

The third prince's answer was very vague.

Mingluan frowned in displeasure: "Third brother, you've lived in the capital for so long, how could you not know the inside story? Why would Father do this out of the blue? And the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion... how could the Crown Prince agree to this?"

The Third Prince said, "Your Highness, you should ask the Crown Prince what he thinks."

Mingluan felt even more frustrated. She glanced at the Third Prince. This elder brother had always been like this since he was a child, always treating everyone the same and never offending anyone. If you pressed him for answers, he would speak; if you didn't, he would always remain silent.

It was really boring.

Then Mingluan looked at the Fourth Prince, "Fourth Brother, you're not as busy as Third Brother, you must know a lot, right?"

The fourth prince immediately looked distressed: "Sister Mingluan, even the third prince doesn't know, how could I possibly know? I get scolded by my mother and father every day if I don't finish my studies."

The fourth prince's still somewhat immature face scrunched up in a frown.

"You—" Mingluan was furious, glaring at them angrily: "Fine, I won't ask you anymore. I'll go back and ask my mother. She'll definitely know."

"Let's go!" Mingluan turned around angrily, preparing to get into the carriage.

Ying Hengzhi said, "[Myth brother, now is an opportunity.]"

[Okay, but host, you need to be mentally prepared for failure.]

"Myna, I know. I'm not in a hurry; I'll proceed slowly."

【it is good! 】

After the conversation ended, a gust of wind suddenly rose from all around. The wind came suddenly and strangely, swirling around and stirring up a fallen leaf from the ground.

One of the fallen leaves spun particularly fast and grazed the horse's calf. The horse, in pain, reared up and galloped forward with the carriage.

Ying Hengzhi was just then brushed past by the carriage. She cried out in surprise and suddenly staggered backward toward the Third Prince's horse.

"Hissing sounds!"

The Third Prince's horse was startled; its eyes widened, and it scrambled to one side.

On the other side, Princess Mingluan had just stepped onto the carriage and hadn't even entered the compartment when the horse suddenly became frightened and galloped away. She was jolted and lost her balance, falling backward and crashing to the ground.

boom!

Princess Mingluan fell flat on her face.

Upon seeing this, Su Jinyu and Wu Lingduo both ran towards her.

At the same time, Ying Hengzhi also fell to the ground.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 5 points of Princess Mingluan's Luck Value. The more unlucky the blood pack is, the more Luck Value you will gain!]

Ying Hengzhi was overjoyed.

[Great, Eighth Brother! The Third Prince is indeed difficult to deal with; his horse actually dodged me just now. How can I get him to come closer?]

"Host, watch me!" System 008 said.

With 5 points of luck, 008 was very generous. Suddenly, a whirlwind blew up all around, dust rose everywhere, and the horse stomped its hooves restlessly. The Third Prince and the Fourth Prince had to dismount and calm the horse.

Suddenly, a branch broke off from a nearby tree and fell towards Ying Hengzhi and the Third Prince.

"what!"

Ying Hengzhi exclaimed and retreated towards the Third Prince.

The third prince also led his horse backwards repeatedly.

But Ying Hengzhi still bumped into him.

Finally, the branch "just happened" to land near Ying Hengzhi's feet, "just in time" without hurting her.

Then the Third Prince asked worriedly, "Are you alright?"

A glint of joy flashed in Ying Hengzhi's eyes, and she said in a soft voice, "Thank you, Third Prince, I'm fine..."

The Third Prince gave her a strange look, and Ying Hengzhi also slowly raised her eyes, looking at him with a pitiful expression.

The Third Prince looked puzzled, then said very politely, "Could you move your body a little? Your hand is pressing on Xiaoyu's front paw."

Ying Hengzhi was momentarily bewildered. Following the Third Prince's gaze, she saw that her hand was resting on one of the horse's front hooves.

The horse had a good temperament and didn't kick her away.

Ying Hengzhi stiffly withdrew her hand. Seeing that she still didn't move away, the Third Prince took the initiative to lead the horse back a little and asked again, "Are you alright?"

He gently stroked the horse's mane.

The horse snorted softly in response.

"I'm glad you're alright. This place is strange; there's a ghostly wind. Let's go back to the manor. I'm sleepy, and you must be too, right?"

The third prince mounted his horse and rode away immediately.

The fourth prince also felt that what the third prince said made sense, so he quickly mounted his horse and left with him.

Ying Hengzhi remained seated in the same spot.

She stared blankly at the Third Prince's departing figure, her teeth grinding together.

"Myna bird, is he blind? Didn't he see me, a grown man, fall down?"

System 008 hesitated before replying, "Perhaps he only cares about his horse."

No wonder he's still single; who would want to marry someone like him!

System 008: [Of course it's you, host!]

Ying Hengzhi: [...]

Rong Qing rushed to the carriage and reined in the frightened horse. Fortunately, the strange whirlwind did not blow again.

Seeing that the horse had calmed down, he quickly went to Princess Mingluan, only to find that her face was covered in dirt and her nose was bleeding, looking quite pitiful.

Mingluan cried out in pain, pointing in Ying Hengzhi's direction, "Go check on Zhi'er too, she fell down too."

Rong Qing then walked up to Ying Hengzhi, smiling as she asked, "Miss Ying, how are you? Are you hurt? Can you get up by yourself?"

Ying Hengzhi glanced at him, somewhat embarrassed, "I'm fine, I should be able to get up."

As she spoke, she got up from the ground, limping.

[Myna bird, please increase my charm!]

【Good host. 】

[Ding! Charm value increased by 5, host is now even more beautiful and endearing.]

Ying Hengzhi felt smug. She looked up at Rong Qing, who was momentarily stunned and said, "Miss Ying, let me help you."
