Wanqian hoped that the Emperor would tell him to leave immediately. He did not feel at home if he had to linger in the Zhenjie Hall. Not only that, Eunuch Yue was also staring at him with a strange look that made him even more uncomfortable.
"Do you think Li Ying Yue can withstand fifty moves from you?"
"Your Majesty, me and the Great Princess have never faced each other directly. But, judging from the intelligence and dexterity possessed by the Princess, I somehow believe that she can do it."
"Goodoo. Then you can go."
Finally, a single sentence that Wanqian was waiting for came out from the Emperor's mouth. Of course the General was very excited.
"Thank you, Sire. I'll pull myself out first."
Wanqian saluted the Emperor and immediately set foot from the Zhenjie Hall.
"Don't you feel that Wang Wanqian is weird today?"
Eunuch Yue glanced towards the Emperor. Actually he felt it too, but he thought it was no big deal. In his opinion, Wanqian must be nervous because if Ying Yue petitioned the Emperor, he would be confused about having to budge or not.
"Jawab Sire, as I see the Great General is not strange. He must have had a hard time dealing with the Great Princess."
The Emperor thought for a moment, then nodded.
'Yue Liang'an's words had a point. The boy really ....'
"Hopefully Li Ying Yue could face the Royal Tradition."
"Mr Princess can do it."
"Do you think Li Ying Yue is going to piss Zixuan off out there?"
***
Ying Yue opened her eyes slowly. He slept very well until morning. But still he still could not forget the late Physician Mei and why Xi Wei defended him. Though the evidence clearly shows that the late Physician Mei killed the late Consort Li.
Ying Yue could see Xi Wei perched on the window. Either still awake or asleep.
'The freak ... he can even sleep in the window frame in such a comfortable position.'
Ying Yue turned her attention to Qingqing who was still asleep and faithfully clasped her Princess Master's hand. The Princess stroked gently to Qingqing, but it made the Servant Girl wake up.
"Oh, is the Princess awake?"
"Shhhttt ...."
Ying Yue placed her index finger in front of her lips and pointed towards Xi Wei.
"No need to tell him to make a storm. I woke up from that."
Ying Yue rolled her eyeballs lazily.
"Are you awake or aren't you asleep?"
Xi Wei smiled because Ying Yue's guess was correct. He hasn't slept at all. But he did not say it and switched the conversation.
"Before Xiao Zixuan wakes up, you should get ready. I'm gonna take you somewhere."
Qingqing directly glared at Xi Wei and restrained Ying Yue.
"Where else will you take our Princess?"
Ying Yue lowered Qingqing's hand and hinted to the Servant Girl not to be offensive to the sapodilla-skinned young man.
"Tokay! Geck! Geck!"
The door of Ying Yue's room was knocked. Qingqing turned her lips toward Xi Wei and immediately opened the door to see who was knocking.
"Oh, it turns out Mr. Jing. What's up?"
Ying Yue was slightly startled when she saw Caihong.
"Mr Princess, did you forget that you've booked a horse carriage for a walk today?"
Ying Yue and Qingqing immediately stared intently at Xi Wei who was putting on an innocent look and only smiled behind a part of the face covered in a cloak hood.
"Yes, I forgot that I booked a train for a walk today. Thank you, Mr. Jing."
The door was closed by Qingqing.
"Calm down, if you don't want us to just be the two of you, just take your Private Servant named Qingqing with you."
After saying so, Xi Wei immediately jumped down and disappeared inside the horse carriage.
Ying Yue was very relieved as it turned out that Xi Wei was also uncomfortable just being alone with her. But he was also happy that Xi Wei was not a person who was easy to change. Especially after the incident in the middle of the night. The mature-skinned youth did not stay away from him at all.
'Luckily I have a lot of typical Hunting Festival clothes.'
"Qingqing, prepare the clothes I used in the Hunting Festival."
"Huh?"
"Prepare it."
"Okay, Grand Princess."
Xi Wei sighed on the horse carriage.
'Do they have to dress up first? Li Ying Yue knew I wouldn't take them for a walk.'
"Master, there's a message from the Great General for you."
The coachman whispered and handed a small piece of paper to Xi Wei. It turned out that he was the one sent by Wanqian and pretended to work as a Train Driver so that he could freely go here and there.
Xi Wei read the message in that small piece of paper. He kept inside a large crate containing gold taels given by Chaguan next to the small coffin. The mature sapodilla-skinned youth gave one tael of silver as a tip for Wanqian subordinates.
At the same time, Ying Yue walked out of the inn with a completely different appearance. Not flashy at all. She was like a Swordswoman from the martial World. Qingqing also thus―if the Servant Girl, a mature brown-skinned youth knew she did not want it, but the Princess forced her.
"Your looks are a good fit."
Ying Yue did not press Xi Wei's praise.
Xi Wei got off the carriage board, allowing Ying Yue and Qingqing to enter the carriage.
Ying Yue and Qingqing directly entered without any concern for Xi Wei. If it was Qingqing, from the beginning she did not like Xi Wei's disrespectful attitude. But unlike Ying Yue, she was probably still angry that the mature-skinned young man did not tell the truth about the late Physician Mei and the late Consort Li.
Xi Wei understood that Ying Yue was disappointed. But he cannot say it because he thinks the time is not right.
Xi Wei tried to talk to Ying Yue.
"Have you decided?"
Of course Ying Yue understood what Xi Wei meant by 'deciding. The princess will not change her mind anytime soon or will never change her mind forever. But he remained silent.
'He's coming. What else am I asking? Wouldn't that just make him even more angry?'
The horse-drawn carriage walked leisurely on the clear yellow streets of Chizi.
Xi Wei closed his eyes and permeated every word that was thrown by the people around him. Ying Yue enthusiastically enjoyed every sight from behind the transparent curtain of the carriage. As for Qingqing, the Servant Girl was learning to embroider a fragrance bag to pass the time.
Everyone has their own activities and world.
