Chapter 55: Fifth Princess, why are you here?

The carriage slowly stopped at the palace gate, and the voices of the guards on duty were heard.

"Check the carriage."

The driver asked in confusion, "Didn't they not check before?"

The guard said solemnly, "New regulations."

Having said that, he was ready to lift the car curtain.

Shangguan Sui reacted quickly and, relying on his small stature, hid in the corner of the carriage.

Xiao Ziyuan immediately covered her with his cloak.

then……

Shangguan Hong was discovered before he could hide...

Shangguan Hong showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

He was immediately taken off the carriage by the guards.

The guard glanced at the carriage again and let it pass after finding nothing unusual.

The carriage drove smoothly out of the palace.

"Okay, it's alright."

Shangguan Sui immediately took off his cloak and gasped for breath.

"Phew, I was really scared. It was so dangerous."

The carriage followed the instructions and quickly drove to the backyard of the Feng Mansion.

Xiao Ziyuan carried Shangguan Sui down from the carriage.

Shangguan Sui looked at the high wall in front of him and couldn't help but frowning.

"Should we climb in?"

Xiao Ziyuan nodded, "Okay, flip it in."

Shangguan Sui couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

[Huh? How do you translate that? I'm just a three-year-old kid! Don't make things difficult for me!]

[With my short legs, I can never climb up no matter how hard I try! ]

Xiao Ziyuan chuckled and looked behind him.

Wu Zhu nodded and immediately took a step forward.

Before Shangguan Sui could react, Wu Zhu picked him up like a chick.

In just a blink of an eye.

She flew into the air, jumped over the high wall and entered the backyard of the Feng family.

Soon, Xiao Ziyuan was also brought in by Wu Zhu.

It was already dark, and the three men were sneaking around in the Feng family's backyard.

Soon, by listening to the conversation of the maids, they found Feng Xici's courtyard.

The lights in the house flickered and faint sounds were heard.

"Miss, it's time to take your medicine."

"I know. Just leave it there."

This was followed by a series of coughing sounds.

Shangguan Sui’s eyes widened.

[Oh my god! Sister Feng is sick! ]

After the maid put down the medicine, she bowed and left.

I saw the maid's back gradually going away.

Shangguan Sui and Xiao Ziyuan, two figures, one big and one small, sneaked in and pushed open the door.

Feng Xici leaned against the couch and coughed softly.

There was a hint of weakness on her cold face, like an orchid in the water.

She heard the door open and frowned, "Didn't I say I wanted to be quiet for a while?"

Then she looked up and was immediately stunned.

His expression was somewhat surprised, "Fifth Princess... why are you here?"

Shangguan Sui immediately ran to her bed with his short legs, his pink little face full of distress.

"Sister Feng, why are you sick~"

"How do you feel now?"

Feng Xici smiled gently, "Don't worry, Princess. I'm much better now."

"It's just that I caught a cold a while ago due to the wind. I couldn't hold on for a while and fell ill."

Shangguan Sui nodded when he heard this.

"I trust Sister Feng's medical skills the most! I'm sure you'll get better soon!"

She winked at Xiao Ziyuan behind her.

Xiao Ziyuan immediately handed over a packaged plum cake.

Shangguan Sui handed the plum blossom cake to Feng Xici, "This is the plum blossom cake my second sister gave me. I think it's delicious, so I specially saved a portion for you."

Feng Xici was deeply moved and immediately reached out to take it.

"Thank you so much, Princess."

Shangguan Sui smiled cheerfully.

"It's okay. By the way, Sister Feng, I want to ask you something."

Feng Xici nodded, "You go ahead."

Shangguan Sui blinked his beautiful big eyes, his little face full of curiosity.

"Sister Feng, does my eldest brother have someone he likes?"

"Do you know who it is? If you know, please tell me~"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xici's ears immediately turned red and her cheeks also started to feel hot.

How should she answer this...

She pursed her lips.

"Well, the princess can ask the eldest prince about this matter herself."

"How should I know..."

Shangguan Sui tilted his head, "Sister Feng, do you really not know?"

Feng Xici's face turned even redder.

The voice became weak and thin, "I really don't know..."

Shangguan Sui and Xiao Ziyuan looked at each other.

[Eh? Something is not right... Why is Sister Feng blushing? ]

But Shangguan Sui did not ask any further questions.

After all, Sister Feng is still sick, and the most important thing now is to let Sister Feng recover well.

Shangguan Sui chatted with her for a while, and then left with Xiao Ziyuan.

I can't stay here any longer, I have to hurry back to the palace!

On the way back to the palace.

Shangguan Sui couldn't help but ask Xiao Ziyuan beside him.

"Tell me, is it that Sister Feng feels embarrassed about this question? Or does she like Big Brother?"

"Otherwise it's really hard to explain why Sister Feng blushed. She is usually such a cool person."

Xiao Ziyuan shook his head, "I don't know either. I'm not very clear about this kind of thing."

Shangguan Sui glanced at him.

[You really don't understand. After all, in the original book, you grow old alone.]

Xiao Ziyuan: …

Is he that miserable?

Shangguan Sui sighed.

This was the first time she encountered something she didn't understand since she came here from the book.

The next day, Yifeng Palace.

"Jue'er, your mother is really worried about you. It's been almost a year since you got married, but how come you don't even have a concubine?"

The Queen looked at Shangguan Jue in front of her with a worried look on her face.

Shangguan Jue nodded, "Mother, I just want to marry a woman I like."

The Queen sighed, "Then let me ask you, among the girls in the Sun Garden, do you like any of them?"

Shangguan Jue shook his head.

"I don't have anyone I like."

The queen frowned, "Are they not good enough?"

Shangguan Jue continued to shake his head, "No."

Just because...

He already has someone in his heart...

The queen wanted to say something but was interrupted by Shangguan Jue.

"Mother, I have to report to my father today, so I need to go to Yu's study."

The queen sighed, "Go ahead."

After Shangguan Jue left, the Queen whispered something to the screen behind her.

"Come out."
