Of course, his approach was good.

It's just a bit out of place.

After a long while, the little eunuch slapped his forehead.

"Oh no, the princess is still inside."

Two incense sticks later, the princess arrived with the emperor's decree, requesting a private audience with the prince.

This led to the scene of high-ranking officials and generals having lunch in the prince's courtyard.

At this moment... perhaps the princess is having lunch with the prince.

Then Su Yan barged in...

The young eunuch was a little afraid to imagine what would happen next.

But upon closer examination, it's possible that he was punished by the princess for trespassing into the study and received a beating.

Or perhaps she was reprimanded by the prince for not following the rules?

After all, the Emperor's decree was in effect; to trespass now would be to tarnish the royal family's reputation.

A beating would be too lenient.

If the princess intended to torture him, things would likely be even worse.

Countless thoughts flashed through my mind.

Su Yan walked into the study.

Then, they heard a familiar, sweet-voiced woman's voice.

"Your Highness, please try this dish. I had the chef from the Imperial Kitchen specially prepare it. I've heard that you've been enjoying some meat dishes lately."

A scene came into view.

Princess Liang Yue was dressed in a pink dress embroidered with butterflies and peonies, with a hair ornament on her head, a beautiful smile on her face, and her fingernails, dyed with balsam juice, were particularly eye-catching.

She was standing to Yuwen Xu's side, feigning intimacy, when she reached out and lifted the lid of a dish.

Su Yan pursed her lips even tighter.

Yuwen Xu, whose eyebrows were lowered, looked up, probably noticing someone coming in.

Their eyes met.

A glint of light flashed quickly in his eyes.

It's been five days since we last met. I thought we would gradually forget each other because we no longer have any contact.

But then I found that I couldn't suppress the joy in my heart.

Soon, the calm look in his eyes turned complicated.

Su Yan spoke in a muffled voice

"You don't eat with me, you eat with other people."

Didn't you say you were very busy?

Making her wait day after day clearly shows that he doesn't want to eat with her.

Hmph, bad guy.

Her sudden voice made Liang Yue raise her head.

He paused for a moment when he saw a woman with delicate features and dressed in a light white dress appear.

Naturally, the thought of comparison and scrutiny also arose in my mind.

Then, Liang Yue covered her lips and smiled faintly, but there was no smile in her eyes.

"Where did this little girl come from? Does she know what crime it is to trespass into this study?"

Su Yan glanced at her.

Then he turned to look at Yuwen Xu again.

"If you don't want to eat with me, then don't eat. I'll find someone else to eat with me."

Su Yan said this with extreme grievance.

Her eyes were filled with tears, a look of grievance on her face.

Let her wait day after day, and let her sleep alone at night.

She clearly has someone else now.

Why not tell her?

She's not going to eat him.

She tried hard to hold back her tears and turned to walk out.

Now that she has someone else, she wants to find another one.

Yuwen Xu frowned.

"stop"

Su Yan didn't want to talk to him at all for the time being.

I'm thinking about who I should have dinner with next.

Yuwen Xu felt a pang of panic as he watched her walk away without looking back.

"Someone come here!"

The voice was a bit too loud.

Six black-clad shadow guards appeared at the door in a single line.

Holding a slender, soft sword, he blocked Su Yan's path.

Su Yan could tell from their expressions that they wanted to fight her.

She blinked rapidly, tears welling up in her eyes.

She turned her head to look at Yuwen Xu, her voice even more aggrieved.

"You're going to get someone to beat me up? You're wrong, it's your fault, what right do you have to bully me like this?"
