Chu Jinghuai ruffled her hair, apparently accustomed to her heartlessness. "In a month at the least, two at the most, I will be back."
"Yeah!" Chen Jingxi nodded.
Chu Jinghuai pulled off the jade pendant from his waist and threw it to her, "Take this jade, you can mobilize everyone in the mansion, including the secret guards."
Chen Jingxi weighed it and found it quite heavy, so it must be expensive. "If this gets broken or lost, you won't ask me to compensate you, right?"
Chu Jinghuai was speechless. His princess's focus was always so nonsensical.
"You don't have to pay for it."
"That's fine, thanks."
Chu Jinghuai sighed, stood up, and was about to leave, but suddenly stopped and looked at her.
Chen Jingxi raised her eyebrows, "Your Highness, is there anything else? Are you reluctant to leave me?"
Chu Jinghuai coughed lightly, "I want to tell you to wait for me in the palace and don't let me find out that you've met someone you shouldn't have. Do you understand?"
"Okay, okay, I got it."
Chu Jinghuai nodded with satisfaction, "Help me pack my luggage."
"Don't you have a maid?"
"This prince wants the princess to clean up."
Chen Jingxi rolled her eyes. This guy not only talks a lot but also makes a lot of demands every time he goes out.
"Yes, Your Highness Prince Su."
If it weren't for this jade pendant, I really wanted to slap him twice to make him wake up. What kind of conditions are he asking for?
Chen Jingxi packed Chu Jinghuai's luggage according to her own living habits, and she took everything she thought she would need.
When they were about to set off, Ling Ying was carrying three bags. The small one was almost invisible and was his, and the two big ones were Chu Jinghuai's.
For a moment, Ling Ying wondered if the prince was going to live in Pingliang for a long time and would never come back.
When Chu Jinghuai saw Ling Ying, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Ling Ying, why did you bring so many things?"
"Your Majesty, this is all yours. I am the only one who has it."
Chu Jinghuai coughed lightly, "Alright, I understand."
He now knew that asking Chen Jingxi to pack her luggage was a wrong decision.
As he mounted his warhorse and was about to set off, he suddenly paused and called out, "Ling Feng."
As soon as the words fell, Ling Feng jumped out of the air and knelt on one knee, "Your Majesty."
"You stay here to protect the princess. If there is any uncontrollable situation, report to the king immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty."

As night falls and the lights come on, a bustling and lively scene quietly unfolds in a corner of the capital.
"Second Young Master, you're here." Mother Xu greeted him warmly.
"Mother Xu, what's going on?"
"There are so many people here. Second Young Master, your method is really useful."
With a "swish", Chen Jingxi opened her fan. Her method was not a good one, it was just a worn-out flyer distribution method used by modern people.
The flyer said that Yicuilou had just opened, drinks were half price, and there would be a mysterious performance.
People are always greedy for bargains, and the mysterious performances arouse curiosity.
These two tricks are useless for real dignitaries, but it doesn’t matter. As long as Yicuilou’s reputation is spread, there is no need to worry about not attracting people.
As you enter Yicui Tower, a light and elegant fragrance hits your nose. The lobby is decorated exquisitely and elegantly, with calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls and antiques and jades placed on the desks. Every detail reveals a refined taste.
At this moment, many guests had gathered in Yicui Tower. Some were talking in low voices, some were drinking from their glasses, their faces filled with excitement and curiosity.
Chen Jingxi sat down in the private room on the second floor.
"When does this mysterious show start? It's not just a prank, is it?"
"I've been waiting for this for half an hour."
"I'm almost full of drinks."
Many people started to join in the fun, and the scene gradually became noisy.
Seeing this, Mother Xu hurried forward, her face full of smiles, and said loudly: "It's almost done, it's about to start."
After saying that, she turned towards the second floor, and Chen Jingxi nodded slightly.
Mother Xu clapped her hands, and then a melodious music sounded.
A light slowly rose in the center of the hall, and a group of dancers began to dance.
"Good." Everyone cheered.
When the dance ended, strands of silk suddenly fell from the tall buildings, like clouds in the sky, and the dancers danced with one hand wrapped around the silk.
Everyone looked up and was shocked by the sudden scene, and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Wow, it's so beautiful."
The dancers hanging in the air, dressed in flowing gauze, look like fairies descending to earth.
Following the rhythm of the music, the dancers' movements became faster and faster, and the wine jugs in their other hands swayed gently as they danced, emitting a faint aroma of wine.
Suddenly, a dancer floated lightly downwards. She slowly fell, tilted the wine jug in her hand, and poured the clear wine accurately into a man's glass.
The man looked at the dancer in fascination, his eyes flashing with admiration and desire.
He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, wanting to catch this dreamy dancer.
However, just as his hand was about to touch the dancer, she suddenly jumped lightly and returned to mid-air.
A strand of black hair gently brushed across his palm. He looked up at the dancer in mid-air and saw a mischievous smile on her face, as if she was teasing him.
He put his hand to his nose and sniffed it, causing the guests around him to laugh.
He smiled as well, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
…
"Young Master." A woman came in with a pot of wine.
Chen Jingxi glanced at her and asked, "Miss Lin, why are you here?"
Lin Chan said, "I had nowhere to go, and when I saw Yicuilou was hiring, I came to try."
