Simple Request

"I still don't think this is the right way. It's just a bit - Can't you just talk to your brother normally?" Princess Nalan asked knitting her brows. She was currently in a carriage outside the palace discussing some very haphazard plan with Prince Yi.

"As I have already said, it's not such a simple matter...He won't just simply allow it." Prince Yi said with a frown, annoyed she was still not understanding the situation. He had honestly never encountered anyone less self-aware before. But then again, it was because she was the way she was that he was able get to her.

Therefore, he could not complain. 

"Okay, but won't this be complicating things even more?" Princess Nalan asked, confused, "Causing a scene is unnecessary... We've already written to my grandfather and father so-"

"Do you really think they will easily accept it?" Prince Yi asked with a raised eyebrow, "It will be great if it were that simple..." Prince Yi said with a hint of sarcasm.
