"Your Highness, is it today..."

Before Lin Shuang could say anything more, Ji Fengyao interrupted her and made a decision directly, saying, "You don't need to go with me today. Stay here and take good care of this courtyard for me. I will take Xique and Bailu with me. They seem simple and innocent, and others will feel more at ease knowing that I don't have any capable people by my side."

These words were indeed lenient towards Lin Shuang.

To outsiders, at least, Lin Shuang still appeared to be Ji Fengyao's capable assistant.

Lin Shuang felt a chill in her heart:

Looking around the courtyard, all the valuables were stored in the storage rings of the three of them, so what was there to see in the courtyard?

Bai Lu thought that Lin Shuang was genuinely concerned about Ji Fengyao's safety, so she stepped forward to comfort her, saying, "Sister Lin Shuang, don't worry, I will take good care of the Princess and won't make any mistakes that would make others laugh at the Princess."

As she spoke, Bai Lu presented a pink flower-shaped ring from the ring finger of her right hand to Lin Shuang, and said happily, "The princess specially gave me this storage ring yesterday, which is used to store clothes, daily necessities and other items. Look, the princess said it is a bellflower, and its flower language is unchanging love. She hopes that we can always love each other and remember our original intentions."

Lin Shuang: "..."

Looking at that exquisitely beautiful, girlish ring, I felt a pang of heartache!

She treated Bailu the same as herself, as if Bailu were her younger sister;

Unexpectedly, Bai Lu climbed to the top by stepping on her, and even flaunted it in front of her?

Human hearts are indeed fickle!

Everything else is meaningless except for one's own interests and power!

"...So beautiful." Lin Shuang forced a smile and stood up with Bai Lu's help. She pretended to be magnanimous and said, "Then, I'll leave the Princess Consort to you, sister. Everyone here today is from the royal family. Sister, you must be extra careful and guard against the Empress Dowager, the Empress, and others' schemes. Don't let the Princess Consort suffer any losses."

“Yes, I know,” Bai Lu nodded solemnly.

Hearing Lin Shuang's sincere words, Xi Que, remembering their past sisterly bond, happily approached and adjusted the starry pendant necklace around her neck, saying, "Sister Lin Shuang, don't worry, my young lady gave me this yesterday too. It contains one of each of the eighteen weapons she brought for her wedding, as well as one of my favorite weapons from the manor. If anyone dares to lay a finger on my young lady today, I'll beat them so badly their own mother won't recognize them!"

Lin Shuang: "!"

Holy crap!

Show off your grandpa's showing off!

That bandit really has some clever tricks up his sleeve!

They had just trampled her into the mud, and then they lavishly rewarded the two girls to win them over. This was deliberately designed to hurt her feelings!

Zhou Fu personally came to greet them at the door.

A kind-faced old man stood respectfully at the door and said, "Your Highness, it's time to set off. If we're any later, we'll miss the auspicious time."

Bai Lu and Xi Que helped the elaborately dressed Ji Fengyao out, one on each side:

The set of gold and silver ornaments within the regulations was dazzlingly bright. Although the items were tacky and the clothes were elaborate, they accentuated the little bandit's fair skin, round face, delicate features, and lively eyes.

Even though Zhou Fu was old, he was still moved by what he saw:

No wonder the prince gave him so many instructions before he left.

He would be pleased to see such a mistress.

Ji Fengyao, supporting Bailu and Xique, gracefully stepped out of the palace.

Suddenly, gongs and drums resounded outside the Prince's Mansion, and firecrackers crackled in unison.

Hundreds of guards from the palace, dressed in red silk, cleared a path for her along the street.
