Over at the palace, Lu Yunting walked to Jiang Yueyang's side and quietly held her hand under the cover of his cloak.

Jiang Yueyang turned her head to look at him, with a smile overflowing in her eyes, and a little bit of shyness.

"Yangyang, someone wants to see you."

"Hmm? Who wants to see me?"

"The granddaughter of the ancient divine doctor."

Jiang Yueyang was a little surprised, "Why does she want to see me?"

"He said he was curious about what you look like."

Hearing such an answer, Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but stare slightly, his mind full of thoughts.

After a moment, she smiled and asked, "When does she want to meet?"

"You decide."

"Then let's meet at Qingfeng Tower tomorrow."

Lu Yunting nodded, "Yangyang, I have to go see His Majesty later, so I can't take you home."

Jiang Yueyang gently squeezed his hand and said, "It's okay. I'm not a child. I can go home by myself. But why are you looking for His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty wants to see the granddaughter of the ancient divine doctor, but..."

"She doesn't want to see His Majesty?"

"Um."

Jiang Yueyang seemed to be thinking about something, "Your Majesty probably wants to see her because of the Queen and the two unborn children."

"There should be the Queen Mother as well."

Jiang Yueyang nodded in agreement. Ever since Prince Rong's death, the Queen Mother's health has been getting worse day by day.

Your Majesty is a filial son. Even though the Queen Mother is not very kind to him, he still hopes that the Queen Mother can live a long life.

"Yangyang."

"Ah Yue."

They both spoke at the same time.

Jiang Yueyang chuckled, "I'll speak first."

"good."

"I wanted to ask you last night." Jiang Yueyang thought for a moment, "Why...why do you like me?"

"Yangyang, I can't really explain why. To be honest, your smile is very warm, and I want to keep this warmth to myself. And..."

Lu Yunting placed her hand on his heart and said, "Every time I see you, my heart beats violently here."

"Oh." Jiang Yueyang responded shyly.

"What about you?"

"Me?" Jiang Yueyang raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I am a superficial person. I like your face."

Hearing this, Lu Yunting lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Yangyang just likes my face?"

He couldn't help but think of the time when she saved him during the Lantern Festival, it seemed like it was just because he was pretty.

However, he didn't think that she just liked his face. After all, he was not the only one who was good-looking.

"You don't seem unhappy?"

"Well, I'm not unhappy. So... Yangyang just likes my face?"

"Of course not." Jiang Yueyang listed the things she liked about Lu Yunting one by one, "I also like your figure, your temperament, your character, your demeanor on the battlefield, your... everything."

Hearing such a straightforward answer, Lu Yunting was filled with joy and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

At the end, her ears turned red with embarrassment.

After a while, they saw the palace gate and stopped at the same time.

"I'm here, you can go back and see His Majesty."

"Yeah." Lu Yunting let go of her hand.

Jiang Yueyang waved her claws slightly at him, then turned and walked towards the palace gate.

After taking only two steps, Lu Yunting called out, "Yangyang."

Jiang Yueyang instinctively turned around and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.

"See you later." Lu Yunting kissed the girl secretly and then fled.

Jiang Yueyang couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw his hurried steps and back.

The system said: [Host, your target is under your control. ]

[Hmm~] Jiang Yueyang was very proud.

[How is it? Am I sensible now? I didn’t say anything just now to disturb you. ]

【Keep up the good work. 】

At this time, on the other side, Wen Shuyan brought Fuqiu to the door of Zuixianju, and the wooden door was ajar.

She raised her hand to knock on the door, but before her hand fell, she heard a familiar voice.

"Master Li, I didn't drink any of the two jars of wine you gave me. My father drank them all. Can you sell me some?"

"Miss Qiao, drinking is harmful to your health."

Qiao Xi's voice was filled with laughter. "Mr. Li, you make wine to sell. Aren't you afraid of ruining your reputation by saying this?"

"Why?"

"Good wine never hurts the body."

Wen Shuyan clenched her hands and took them back, then lowered her eyes to look at the ground.

"Girl..." Fuqiu called out with concern.

After a moment, Wen Shuyan raised her eyes to look at the words on the door plaque, with a hint of sadness in her voice.

"Fuqiu, let's go back."

"promise……"

Wen Shuyan withdrew her gaze and turned to leave. The breeze gently blew up her skirt, leaving nothing behind except bitterness.

At this time, Li Yan looked towards the door as if he had realized something.

Seeing this, Qiao Xi asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just felt like there was someone outside."

Hearing this, Qiao Xi stood up and walked to the door. She looked around and didn't see a single person.

Then she returned to the tree.

"No one's outside."

Li Yan said, "That might be my illusion. Miss Qiao, can I ask you a question?"

"Mr. Li, you can ask as much as you want."

Li Yan scratched his head in embarrassment, "Then... the Miss Wen who was with you that day, is she the daughter of Prime Minister Zuo's family?"

Qiao Xi was stunned, and the smile on her face froze, "...Yes, Master Li knows A Yan?"

"I've heard of it before." Li Yan's eyebrows were gentle and smiling, "Miss Wen's talent is well-known in the capital."

"Is Mr. Li a scholar?"

Just after she asked, she realized something and replied with a smile: "I was wrong. The names of your wines are very elegant and your handwriting is also good. How could you not be a scholar?"

Li Yan smiled, which was considered as his agreement.

Qiao Xi released her hand that was pinching her clothes, stood up and said with a faint smile: "Mr. Li, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do, so I'll... leave first."

Without waiting for Li Yan to answer, Qiao Xi turned around and walked quickly towards the door, and the maid Hua Ying hurriedly followed.

"Miss Qiao, your wine."

Qiao Xi didn't even turn around, "I'll have someone come get it later."

Li Yan was full of confusion. What happened?

On the other hand, Doctor Zhou left the Imperial Hospital early.

First I went to the place where the free clinic was held that year, and then I walked aimlessly on the street.

His ears were filled with all kinds of noisy sounds, but he was not disturbed at all, because his mind was full of every little detail of the past.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, he suddenly stopped. The person opposite him had a flash of surprise in his eyes and also stopped.

“Miss Shen.”
