Bai Jinjin fixed her hair, cleared her throat, and said to Ye Jiuge, "I'm here to invite you to play outside the palace today."

Ye Jiuge was a little surprised. Could the princess leave the palace at will?

Seeing his expression of complete disbelief, Bai Jinjin put her hands on her waist and said, "What I said is true, don't disbelieve it."

Seeing this, Ye Jiuge also showed some interest. It would be best if he could leave the palace openly, which would save him from having to climb over the wall.

Seeing that Ye Jiuge was slow to answer, Bai Jinjin took Ye Jiuge's hand and ran out. Ye Jiuge looked at their intertwined hands in a trance and fell into memories.

A woman whipped him with a whip, shouting "monster" loudly as she did so.

Ye Jiuge silently tightened the two people's clasped hands, trying to draw some warmth from them. He had never been treated so gently before.

It seems that being sent here as a hostage is not entirely without benefits. Looking at Bai Jinjin with her hair flying in front of her, the dark mist in her eyes thickened a little.

One last chance, if you are still this warm...

But the embarrassing thing was that Bai Jinjin found herself halfway through her run, still wearing the princess's attire. It would definitely be a shame to dress so ostentatiously in public.

He could only change quickly, turned around and looked at Ye Jiuge's equally luxurious clothes, raised his head and said awkwardly: "Hey, well, we didn't change clothes."

Ye Jiuge was just about to let go of her hand and turn around to change his clothes, but Bai Jinjin thought he was angry and didn't want to go, so she hurriedly grabbed him.

"Oh, don't go. Let's go to my place. I'll ask Zi Ling to find you a set of men's clothes and we can leave right away."

But Ye Jiuge was somewhat dissatisfied with Bai Jinjin's behavior and asked, "Have you ever brought other people into your bedroom before?"

Bai Jinjin was stunned on the spot. Isn’t it just changing clothes?

"No, you're my first friend, so I brought you there."

When Ye Jiuge heard that he was the first one, his mood inexplicably improved.

Seeing that the atmosphere around Ye Jiuge had calmed down, Bai Jinjin knew that she was right. This was her strong man and she couldn't afford to offend him.

But I also sighed that Ye Jiuge's mood was really as moody as in the novel.

Arriving at Chaoyang Palace, Zi Ling was looking for Bai Jinjin everywhere. Seeing Bai Jinjin appear from the doorway, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurried forward to check if Bai Jinjin had any injuries.

Seeing this, Bai Jinjin immediately stopped Zi Ling.

"Okay, Zi Ling, I'm fine. Quickly prepare two sets of men's clothes for me."

Zi Ling was very confused.

"What does the princess need men's clothing for?"

Bai Jinjin quickly patted Ye Jiuge's arm and said, "I want to go out of the palace with this brother and play quickly."

Only then did Zi Ling notice the man behind Bai Jinjin. He had sword-like eyebrows and a nose as sharp as a knife. His aura was so cold that he seemed unattainable.

Zi Ling was so engrossed in watching that she didn't hear what Bai Jinjin said, nor did she notice Ye Jiuge's furrowed brow and the murderous intent in his eyes.

Seeing Zi Ling staring at Ye Jiuge in a daze, he patted her on the back. Zi Ling came back to her senses and then knelt down in horror.

"Princess, please forgive me. I was really distracted for a moment."

But Bai Jinjin waved her hand indifferently.

"It's okay, it's okay. Go and prepare two sets of men's clothes for me."

Zi Ling didn't dare to ask more questions at this time, and went to get her clothes timidly.

Soon, the clothes were brought, one black and one white. Bai Jinjin wanted to give the white one to Ye Jiuge, but Ye Jiuge took the black one with disgust. Bai Jinjin could only curse Ye Jiuge in her heart.

Sitting in a carriage, I watched the prosperity of the people, shouted to buy buns, and three or two ladies gathered together to talk about someone's family gossip.

The man selling candied haws flashed past Bai Jinjin's eyes. Bai Jinjin quickly stopped the man and held the candied haws in her hand. Bai Jinjin was very satisfied.

It also made Ye Jiuge sigh that it was so easy to satisfy.

When Bai Jinjin heard this, she looked at Ye Jiuge with a smile.

"You know what it means to be contented."

Ye Jiuge smiled leisurely when he heard this.

"How can a person in the palace be content with what he has?"

Bai Jinjin didn't like to hear this.

"What do you mean people in the palace can't be content with what they have?"

Ye Jiuge stopped talking, and the atmosphere in the carriage suddenly became quiet.

Bai Jinjin was very upset. Why did she argue about this?

Ye Jiuge, who seemed calm, had similar thoughts in his mind. Both of them wanted to find an opportunity to talk but neither of them spoke.

The carriage arrived at the suburbs, and a breeze blew into the carriage. The fresh air made Bai Jinjin take a few deep breaths.

Ye Jiuge was happy to see this.

"What are you doing?"

Bai Jinjin didn't answer. She pulled Ye Jiuge out of the carriage and closed her eyes facing the sunlight.

Ye Jiuge on the side was very confused about what benefits this would bring.

Bai Jinjin opened her eyes contentedly. Seeing Ye Jiuge didn't move, she pulled his wrist and said, "Why are you standing there? Come with me, close your eyes and face the sun~"

Ye Jiuge looked at her with amusement as she closed her eyes, a smile that had never appeared in his eyes before.

Facing the sun with Bai Jinjin, it is so warm...but it seems that the warmth on the wrist can warm the heart more.

At this moment, the sound of horses came. Ye Jiuge looked vigilantly in the direction of the sound and said in a sharp tone: "Jinjin, hide behind me."

Bai Jinjin was frightened by the sudden sound of horse riding and hid behind Ye Jiuge without hesitation, holding his sleeve tightly.

The sound gradually approached, but Ye Jiuge became more and more relaxed. This sound...

Sure enough, a guard appeared. Bai Jinjin immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful. Damn, it was so exciting.

When the guard saw Bai Jinjin, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Princess and Concubine have something important to discuss with you. Please come with me."

Hearing this, Bai Jinjin shrugged and said, "Okay, okay, my cheap mom really knows how to choose the time."

But when Bai Jinjin looked at the lush grass, she couldn't help feeling a little regretful.

"It seems that there are no fireflies."

Ye Jiuge said, "I'm going to stay here for a while. You can go back first."

Seeing this, Bai Jinjin stretched out her voice and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first. Remember to go back before the palace is locked."

Ye Jiuge nodded and sat on the ground, waiting until Bai Jinjin disappeared from his sight.

Several dark figures came down from the tree and knelt on one knee respectfully. However, Ye Jiuge's words filled the black-clothed men with doubts, and they finally answered yes.

Bai Jinjin followed the guards back to the palace, and when she arrived at her stepmother's palace, she opened the door and went in lazily.

"Mother, Jinjin is playing outside. What's the matter that requires you to return to the palace in such a hurry?"

When Concubine Ye saw Bai Jinjin coming back, she looked unhappy. She walked up to her and poked Bai Jinjin's face with her finger.

"Jinjin, did you forget that you promised mother to come back for lunch?"
