Su Yingxue had a strange look on her face. “She’s just a sleepyhead. What’s wrong with that?”
Seeing Su Yingxue’s eyes glistening, Zhilan laughed coquettishly. “Yes, Miss is right!”
Just as Su Yingxue arrived at the palace, Yun Dan found her and asked about Su Yurou’s situation. “The Eldest Princess invited a socialite from Jiang Du City to attend a banquet. Yesterday, the Second Young Miss, Miss Su didn’t show up. It can be said that she didn’t give the Eldest Princess any face. Didn’t Eldest Young Miss properly ask Second Young Miss about this matter?”
“No, I didn’t.”
Su Yingxue answered very straightforwardly. “To be honest, my sister has never listened to me. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have been unaware that she listens to the Eldest Princess. However, she has been sleeping a lot recently. If the Eldest Princess misses her, you can go to the Marquis’s Manor to visit her and see if she is willing to get up to meet the Eldest Princess.”
Yun Dan frowned. She had thought that Su Yurou was unable to come out because Su Yingxue had done something to her.
But now, Su Yingxue actually allowed her to visit Su Yurou?
What was the meaning of this?
Yun Dan could not guess, but she had to make a trip to the Marquis’s Manor.
She bowed to Su Yingxue. “In that case, 1 will go and visit the Second Young Miss on behalf of the Eldest Princess.”
Yun Dan left the palace and went to the Marquis’s Manor. She met Chu Yihan at the entrance.
She was Han Yuwen’s servant and had met Chu Yihan before. However, when she bowed to Chu Yihan, Chu Yihan did not pay attention to it. Instead, he saw Su Yingxue and quickened his pace. He walked in front of her and held her hand.
Su Yingxue saw that Yun Dan was unhappy and even teased. “Just now, the Eldest Princess’s people bowed to Your Highness, but Your Highness ignored them.”
Chu Yihan looked indifferent. “What does it have to do with me?”
He brought Su Yingxue to the Fragrance Pavilion near the Perching Phoenix Palace.
On the way, Qin Muyan waited for Su Yingxue for a long time. He walked up to greet her. “Miss Su, what were you busy with today? I can help you.”
Su Yingxue smiled politely and was about to say that it was nothing.
Beside her, Chu Yihan exuded an icy aura. “No need!”
He pulled Su Yingxue behind him and blocked Qin Muyan’s line of sight. He sized Qin Muyan up coldly. “If you’re too free, why don’t you practice martial arts and military tactics?”contemporary romance
Qin Muyan, a man eight feet tall, exuded a powerful aura similar to Chu Yihan. “In terms of martial arts, I may not be able to immediately defeat the Ninth Prince. However, when it comes to marching and fighting, if Your Highness is unconvinced, how about we have a friendly exchange on the battlefield?”
“No!”
Seeing that the tension between the two was escalating, Su Yingxue quickly positioned herself between them, putting an end to the brewing conflict.
Smiling, she said to Qin Muyan, “Your Highness, we are going to meet the Eldest Princess of the Qi State right now. She has invited the Ninth Prince for a chess game, so we won’t trouble you.”
“Chess? I can also learn a thing or two. How about we go together?”
After Qin Muyan spoke, he took the lead, not allowing Su Yingxue a chance to refuse.
Su Yingxue felt a headache coming on.
Chu Yihan pulled her forward, and Su Yingxue looked at her pitiful little hand being held in his hand. She let out a soft sigh. “Your Highness, please be gentle.”
Han Yuwen arranged the chessboard, anticipating Su Yingxue’s arrival, but she didn’t expect Qin Muyan to follow.
Among the four, Su Yingxue had the lowest status. She slightly bent her legs and greeted Han Yuwen, “Greetings, Eldest Princess. I hope you’re doing well.”
“I’m doing very well.”
In contrast to the usual formalities, Han Yuwen’s sharp gaze was fixed on Su Yingxue..
