"But that princess is really beautiful."

"It's the clothes that are pretty, and I also noticed she's wearing makeup. She's not nearly as pretty as Miss, but clothes make the man. It's just that the gorgeous outfit makes her look better. If Miss wore it, she would be much prettier than her."

Upon hearing this, the female lead didn't seem particularly happy. She smiled slightly and said, "Perhaps."

After saying that, the female protagonist got up, sat on the edge of the couch, and said while stretching the quilt, "Even the young master's eyes were fixed on that princess, which shows how happy he was."

The maid's lips twitched, and she comforted her, "Why should Miss care about him? If he doesn't bother you, then there will be even less discord between you and the Prince."

The female lead nodded and lay down, saying, "Okay, you should go and rest too."

"Yes, then Miss, please get some rest." With that, she left.

At night, Su Lixia slept restlessly, making noises from time to time, and the blanket was kicked off several times.

Yi Zexuan frowned, stood up and looked at her, muttering to himself, "Forced to stay here, it seems she's serving you. You little princess, you're really lucky."

After saying that, Yi Zexuan reached out and covered her with the blanket again.

The next day, before dawn, the young guard went to find Yi Zexuan.

"Your Highness? Your Highness? It's time for the morning court session!"

"Huh? Where is the prince?" The young guard looked around but couldn't find Yi Zexuan.

Just as he was about to leave, something occurred to him, and he froze on the spot, whispering, "Oh no!"

After learning the reason, the young guard quickly ran over, took out his key, and opened the door.

She walked in quietly and saw Yi Zexuan sitting at a round table drinking water.

"The water has become murky overnight. Send someone to replace it with fresh water. The princess needs to drink more water after she wakes up from her drunken stupor."

Before the young guard could even speak, Yi Zexuan had already assigned him tasks.

"Yes, but Your Highness..." the young guard said nervously.

"Just go and make the arrangements as I've been told. I'll go to court myself." With that, Yi Zexuan stood up.

The young guard scratched his head, puzzled, and asked, "Then why doesn't Your Highness change your clothes before going?" He thought to himself, "If you change your clothes, I can go with you."

"No, today's matter is urgent, I must go there quickly. Keep your voice down, don't disturb the princess's rest." After saying that, Yi Zexuan strode away.

"Huh?" Yi Zexuan reached out his hand, wanting to try and persuade him to stay.

"Hmm~ I'm not getting up!" Su Lixia lay on the tatami mat, dreaming that someone was calling her to get up, so she angrily kicked off the blanket again.

"Heavens!" The little guard was startled and jumped, but after glancing at Su Lixia who was still fast asleep, he was relieved.

The young guard went out and bumped into Xiaolian, who loudly questioned him, "What are you doing! What are you doing sneaking around the door like that!"

Upon hearing this, the young guard stepped forward, covered her mouth, and then shushed her, saying, "What can I do? None of you are up yet, and no one is taking care of the princess. The prince only asked me to change the princess's water pot so she can drink it when she wakes up."

"Waaah!" Xiao Lian was still being covered by his hand and couldn't speak.

The young guard then realized he had let go, coughed twice to cover his embarrassment, and asked, "Are you alright?"

Xiaolian frowned, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "Mind your own business!" Then she went into the house and closed the door.

The young guard chuckled, quite puzzled.

Xiao Lian stepped forward, looked at Su Lixia who was fast asleep with her mouth open, covered her with the blanket, shook her head and sighed, "Drinking so much, doesn't the princess know she can't drink alcohol?"
