The sky was somewhat overcast in a courtyard of the post station.

Su Yan's door was open, and she was sitting at the round table eating snacks.

Xun Jing was also beside her.

After a long while, he finally spoke.

"Her Highness seems to have been exceptionally busy these past few days."

Su Yan thought about her itinerary for the next few days.

Sleeping.

She spoke

"not busy"

As he spoke, he took a bite of the pastry.

Furthermore, Xun Jing said...

"profound?"

A pleasant voice came from deep within his throat.

A slight smile played on his lips.

"It seems that Her Highness does not wish to see me."

Su Yan looked at him.

"No"

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yan remembered that Jin Yi had been inviting her over the past few days, but she had refused each time.

She looked away and took a bite of the pastry.

"Yes, I am a bit busy."

He said this in a low voice.

Well, don't be too guilty about lying.

Xun Jing looked over and leaned closer.

"Does Your Highness still remember the promise made in the carriage?"

"What promise?"

"You want me to marry you, and you even said that once I marry you, everything you have will belong to me."

Su Yan looked up at him.

Then, he said

"I heard that the emperor's ministers and the envoys from Jianglan Kingdom will be arriving tonight."

There's no time like the present; let's make things clear today.

She spoke

"So eager?"

After all, there's still a large portion of that flower business that hasn't been planted yet.

Xun Jing looked at her thoughtfully, and after a long while, he spoke.

"I am soft-hearted and kind-hearted, and therefore very easy to deceive."

I hope Her Highness is not lying to me.

Su Yan shook her head upon hearing his sudden remark.

"Won't"

Xiao Hua silently complained.

The male protagonist has probably misunderstood the meaning of the phrase "soft-hearted and kind-hearted".

They even attributed this term to themselves.

I have no idea how he said it.

Not long after they started eating, Su Yan was summoned to the Zhennan Prince's mansion by the Zhennan Prince's men.

Su Yan had just left.

Xun Jing, who was about to return to his own courtyard, stopped in his tracks.

Her eyes and brows were lowered.

Jin Yi, standing behind him, couldn't help but speak up.

"Your Highness?"

What's wrong with Your Highness?

Judging from the looks of it, I'm not in a good mood.

It wasn't like this when we went to Princess's room for snacks.

Just then, Xun Jing said...

"Let's go to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion."

As soon as he finished speaking, he changed his route.

After a moment of surprise, Jin Yi quickly agreed.

Su Yan was summoned again.

Once again, I was put on the waiting list.

This time, however, I will not ignore it as I did last time.

They specially arranged for her to stay in the small courtyard where she used to live.

Besides Xiao Tao serving him, four other maids were arranged to be by his side.

It seemed as if they were about to help her bathe and change clothes.

Then, one of the maids spoke.

“Your Highness, you are meeting the envoy tonight, so you cannot dress so casually.”

"Please, Your Highness, bathe and change your clothes."

Su Yan's attention was completely drawn to the empty courtyard.

Yes, it's a great place to grow flowers.

Incidentally, her gaze drifted to the corner of the wall on the left.

This is the place where she planted flowers last time.

Now, with those few rains, it has sprouted.

Su Yandao

"You all go wait outside and come back in half an hour later."

The maids looked at each other.

"this······"

Xiao Tao gently scolded from the side

"Her words no longer carry any weight?"

After all, Su Yan is a princess.

They still had no choice but to listen.

So he quickly responded and went to stand outside the courtyard.

Xiao Tao thought that Her Highness the Princess was unhappy.

Want to comfort

"Your Highness, although the Prince of Zhennan only wanted to put on a show in front of the envoy."
