Su Lixia began to implement her plan, and with the idea of ​​currying favor with the second male lead, who was incredibly wealthy, she sent him an invitation.

Yi Zexuan and Lin Ziwen were drinking tea and discussing matters when a servant handed them the invitation.

"Who is it for?" the young guard asked as he took it.

"It was a message sent by the Fifth Princess to Young Master Lin."

"Oh~" The little guard looked at Lin Ziwen with a mischievous grin.

Upon hearing that it was given to him by Su Lixia, the latter immediately perked up and grabbed it.

"I didn't see you looking so energetic when I arrived."

He pretended not to hear Yi Zexuan speaking to him.

After reading the post, he realized that Su Lixia wanted to invite him to work and have fun together, which suited him even better! He was already bored of being cooped up in the palace for the past few days!

"I have other matters to attend to, Your Highness. Please bear with me." With that, he ran off with a smile.

Seeing this, Yi Zexuan downed a cup of tea in one gulp, and put the cup down as a signal for the little guard to follow.

Lin Ziwen rushed to Su Lixia's place.

He bowed and asked, "May I ask what brings the princess to me?"

Although he already knew what they were going to do, he still wanted to know why Su Lixia had specifically sought him out.

Su Lixia was dozing off in the rocking chair when she heard the sound. She wiped her drool, sat up, and exclaimed in confusion.

Upon seeing this, Lin Ziwen almost burst out laughing.

"Ah! Young master, you've arrived so quickly. Please have a seat." Su Lixia invited him to sit down.

Lin Ziwen sat down and then watched as Su Lixia took something out of her sleeve.

"Clang clang!" Su Lixia held up the token for Lin Ziwen to see with a happy expression.

Looking at the dragon patterns on it, Lin Ziwen understood a little better.

"This is my father's token. With this token, we can leave the palace!"

Lin Ziwen nodded and said, "I see. Where would the princess like to take me out of the palace?"

“Ah…this…” Su Lixia was speechless, scratched her head and said, “Actually, I have grown up in the palace since I was a child and have never been anywhere else. As for what fun places are outside the palace, I don’t know.”

Upon hearing this, Lian'er was taken aback and stepped forward, saying, "Princess, have you forgotten that His Majesty forbids you from leaving the palace at will because you caused too much trouble at the Princess's residence before?"

Faced with Lian'er's sabotage, Su Lixia was at a loss for words, as these things weren't written in the book!

"Really? I don't remember."

"Otherwise, why would we have stayed in the palace all this time?" Xiaolian shrugged.

Lin Ziwen coughed, somewhat embarrassed.

"Haha, really? That's all ancient history, isn't it? This princess doesn't even remember it." Su Lixia said, while giving Lian'er a look, signaling her not to ruin things anymore!

"Then let's take it one step at a time. Since the princess is unfamiliar with it and I don't know it either, wouldn't it be interesting and fun to go anywhere?"

Su Lixia nodded twice and suggested, "What you say is absolutely right, young master. Why don't we change into casual clothes and then go?"

"Let's go?" Lin Ziwen asked in confusion. Aren't we going to prepare a sedan chair?

"Then this servant will go and prepare the carriage for the princess!" Xiaolian said excitedly.

"Don't make it too big, keep it low-key!" Su Lixia shouted to Xiao Lian's back.

Lin Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief. Back then, it took him half an incense stick's time to ride a horse from outside the palace to the main hall. If he were to walk...

Once the carriage was ready, the group left immediately. Apart from the three of them, Su Lixia only had two guards accompany them, along with the coachman.

The young guard watched the carriage leave from outside the palace before returning to report.
