Hearing this, Xue Yurou became even more embarrassed. She smiled slightly and said, "That's true. Let's wait until we have a chance to see the princess. But won't Your Highness go and see the princess?"

"Let's see what she does. She has her own people to serve her, so I don't need to worry about her."

Xue Yurou felt smug. It seemed that what the maid said made sense; she could only get these things because of her status as a princess.

As morning approached, Lin Ziwen arrived at the door. Seeing Xue Yurou there, he nodded in acknowledgment.

Xue Yurou frowned. Judging from his past behavior, he shouldn't be this cold. Could it really be what she thought? Could a person be changed in such a short time?

"You haven't had lunch yet?"

Yi Zexuan chuckled and asked, "Is your Lin family so poor that you can't even afford to eat? Or are you just here to freeload a meal from me?"

Lin Ziwen chuckled and explained, "Look at what you're saying, isn't it just that we're good friends and it's more fun to eat together?"

"I did not think so."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ziwen curled his lip, stood up and said, "In that case, I won't eat here anymore. Farewell."

"Wait, you can't go to the princess's place if you don't eat here. According to our custom, the manor will host a three-day banquet for the princess, so if you go there, there might not be any food."

"Hey!" Lin Ziwen couldn't stop smiling. He rubbed his face and said, "That's great! No one has come to this manor for a long time. I almost forgot about it."

Yi Zexuan raised his eyes and rolled his eyes at him, then clicked his tongue and said, "Then you'd better wait patiently."

Lin Ziwen shrugged and said, "Then I won't bother. I'll go to the backyard to pay my respects to the princess." With that, Lin Ziwen strode away.

Seeing this, Yi Zexuan put down his pen, sighed softly, and said, "If he keeps coming to my backyard, it will be bad for me, the princess, and him on our wedding day."

"Then what is this, young master?" Xue Yurou asked tentatively.

"It's nothing, he just hit it off with the princess at first sight."

Xue Yurou covered her mouth and chuckled softly, saying, "That's interesting. Wouldn't it be even more convenient for a young master to see a princess than for a prince?"

"That's true."

The two sat for a while longer, and then Uncle Li came in and said, "Your Highness, the food is ready and can be served immediately."

Yi Zexuan hummed in agreement and asked, "Have you sent someone to fetch the princess?"

"They sent someone, but the messenger came back saying the princess hasn't woken up yet."

"What's the reason? Why haven't you woken up yet in the middle of the day?" Xue Yurou asked.

Uncle Li didn't want to answer her, but out of respect for Yi Zexuan, he replied, "Last night the princess drank a few cups of wine and got drunk. She must still be drunk now."

Upon hearing this, Xue Yurou looked at Yi Zexuan and said, "I suppose the princess doesn't drink alcohol, and it's no small matter that she hasn't woken up yet. As the master of the palace, why doesn't Your Highness go and take a look?"

“Sleeping for so long is definitely a problem. Go out and find a doctor to take a look at the princess.”

"yes."

Meanwhile, Su Lixia was fast asleep on the couch, showing no sign of waking up, while Xiao Lian paced anxiously back and forth.

The old woman brought in honey water, and seeing Xiaolian's appearance, she couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "If you wander around here for another half a day, the princess might wake up."

Xiao Lian scratched her head and explained, "Logically speaking, she shouldn't have been unconscious for so long. Granny, do you think the princess is alright?"
