Qian Qing remained silent, feeling awkward.

Luo Xiuran, on the other hand, happily picked up the sachet. Then, he scoffed at Feng Yili and said, “What do you know? This sachet is so beautiful.”

“Young Marquis Luo, this sachet…” Qian Qing said with a frown.

However, Luo Xiuran tied the sachet to his waist and said proudly, “I already took this sachet. Whether you planned to give it to me or not, it’s already mine.”

Qian Qing: .

‘He’s really domineering…’

Qian Qing did not protest. After all, the sachet was indeed made for Luo Xiuran.

She lowered her head and quickly said to Feng Yili and the little bun, “Your

Royal Highness, Little Master, I’ll take my leave first.’

With that, Qian Qing quickly left. No matter how one looked at it, it seemed like she was fleeing.

Luo Xiuran touched the sachet at his waist, feeling as happy as a child who had just gotten candy. He even approached the little bun and said proudly, “Did you see that? Qian Qing specially embroidered this sachet for me. You must be envious.”

The little bun: .

Feng Yili:

At this moment, a servant passed by, and Luo Xiuran even ran over to show off. “Look at this. My beloved woman embroidered it for me. Alas, you don’t have such a treatment…”

The servant:

‘Is this fool really Young Marquis Luo?’

At this moment, the little bun suddenly turned around and ran toward the study with his short legs.

When Luo Xiuran saw the little bun running away, he asked curiously, “Hey, Junjin, why are you going back to the study again? Didn’t you say that you didn’t want to study?”

“I want to study now!” the little bun said urgently.

“Why?”

“My mother doesn’t want me to play with idiots. I better go and study.” Luo Xiuran:

Luo Xiuran turned to Feng Yili before he said, looking aggrieved, “Yili, aren’t you going to correct Junjin?”

Feng Yili glanced at Luo Xiuran and replied, “I think his words made sense.” Luo Xiuran:

‘Hmph! They don’t understand my happiness!’ Luo Xiuran thought to himself as he gritted his teeth and returned to his room.

On the other side, Yu Junjin lowered his head and ran to the study. Since his father had yet to give him any instructions on what to do at the palace banquet tonight, he decided to study first. Suddenly, he bumped into someone.

“I’m sorry! I deserve to die!”

The little bun looked up and saw a woman kneeling in front of him, and his eyes flashed.

‘Uncle Jiang Ying and the others have always been the ones to clean Father’s study. What’s a maidservant doing here?’Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

Despite the thoughts in his mind, the little bun’s expression did not change at all. He still looked obedient and naive as he asked softly, “Who are you?”

The maidservant lowered her head and replied respectfully, “My name is Yueshan. I just entered the residence today. That’s why I got lost and bumped into you.”

The little bun sized the other party up.

‘She’s dressed like a maidservant. I heard that the residence hired a group of maidservants recently…’

However, the little bun still did not let his guard down. He pursed his lips before saying softly, “Father doesn’t like servants running around. Just go where the steward tells you to. Don’t wander around again..

“Thank you for your reminder, Little Prince. You’re such a kind person,” Du Yueshan said gratefully with a nod. Then, she rose to her feet and left in a hurry with her head lowered.

‘She seems well-behaved. I hope I was overthinking things…’ the little bun thought to himself as he stroked his chin.

On the other side, Du Yueshan’s smile vanished, replaced by a cold expression as soon as she reached the rockery. She toyed with her hair and scoffed inwardly.

‘I thought it’d be difficult to enter the King of Youshan’s Residence, but it turned out to be so easy… However, if I want to attract the King of Youshan’s attention, I still have to expend some effort…’

Nighttime.

The streets of the capital were decorated with lanterns and colorful banners. It was very lively.

At this time, a carriage was waiting at the entrance of the King of Zhenbei’s Residence. It was sent by the Emperor Emeritus to pick Yu Yunxi up.

Can Ban held his sword in front of his chest as he muttered, “Is the Eldest

Princess not ready yet?”

Yu Yunxi had a noble status. She naturally had to show her face in front of the envoys from various countries tonight. As such, the Emperor Emeritus wanted her to enter the palace as soon as possible. However, Can Ban had waited for a long time, but she was still nowhere to be seen.

Meng Xia, who was standing at the side, said disapprovingly, “How can a subordinate rush his master? Or how can a man rush a woman? The Eldest Princess naturally needs time to get ready. Just wait.”

“Is that so?”

Can Ban frowned.

Ever since Can Ban was old enough, he had been training with the secret guards. After that, he was chosen to follow the Emperor Emeritus. At that time, the Emperor Emeritus had been living in a temple, surrounded by monks. As such, Can Ban did not know much about women.

Can Ban looked at Meng Xia and said, “When you were training with us, you didn’t take so long to get ready…”

“You idiot, you still have the cheek to say that!” Meng Xia said, annoyed.

In the past, Meng Xia had to train with the guards, and most of them were men. All of them would take into consideration her identity as a woman, but Can Ban never did. Once, when they were on a mission, he had insisted that she rode on the same horse with him. When she refused, he confidently said that he rode with the others all the time and that it would save time and trouble to ride on the same horse. He could not understand why he could not do the same with her.

“If I had to get ready for a banquet, I’d take a long time as well. All girls are like this. You just don’t understand. No wonder no woman likes you even though you’re already so old,” Meng Xia said disdainfully.

Can Ban frowned and said seriously, “I’m just a year older than you. You’re not even in a hurry to get married, so why should I be in a hurry?”

“You…”

Meng Xia could not refute his words. In the end, she could only shut her mouth in embarrassment.

‘Unexpectedly, this fool is quite good at arguing with people…’

Meanwhile, Qian Qing watched the duo’s interaction from the side. She crossed her arms and slowly walked to Meng Xia’s side. She nudged Meng Xia with her elbow before she said meaningfully with a smile, “As it turns out, you and Can Ban are old acquaintances.”

“We don’t know each other well!”

“We’ve known each other for over ten years!”

Meng Xia and Can Ban replied in unison, but their replies were contradicting.

Meng Xia glared at Can Ban with a warning gaze before she said, “We’ve known each other for more than years, but we don’t know each other well.”

Can Ban tilted his head slightly. An expression of confusion could be seen on his handsome face as he asked, “We’ve known each other for more than ten years. We’ve trained together, ate together, slept together, and fought together. Why don’t we know each other well?”

Meng Xia was flustered by Can Ban’s words. “You, stop, stop! Who slept with you?!”

“You. Seven years ago, you accidentally fell down a cliff. I went to look for you, and when I found you, we stayed in a cave for a night. At that time, you took the initiative to hug me and refused to let go,” Can Ban replied seriously, “Also, six years ago, you were drunk, and you barged into my room. You pushed me off my bed and occupied my bed. Naturally, I wouldn’t let you have your way. In the end, we ended up snatching the blanket from each other the entire night. Also, five years ago…”

At this moment, Meng Xia rushed over and quickly covered Can Ban’s mouth.

“Shut up!”
