Li Nian took Jinhe from Xiao Yunyu with a cold face and got into the carriage.
The carriage continued along the road to the city. It was not early at this time, and some breakfast shops had closed. Only those shops that served breakfast and lunch together still had food to choose from.
"Let's go to Baihua Pavilion..."
As soon as Xiao Yunyu finished speaking, he received a glare from Li Nian.
He immediately explained: "It's not what you think. Baihua Pavilion is the largest restaurant in Yuexi City."
"You'll know when you go there," Xiao Yunyu explained softly, one arm around his wife's waist. "The Hundred Flowers Pavilion was named after the owner's wife, who loves flowers. To please her, the owner found all kinds of flowers. Their yard is filled with flowers almost all year round, hence the name 'Hundred Flowers Pavilion'."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of Baihua Pavilion.
"Let's go to the second floor." Xiao Yunyu took Jinhe from Li Nian and walked towards the second floor.
Li Sisi followed silently, completely losing her previous lively and cheerful look.
Li Nian felt helpless as she looked at Li Sisi's absent-minded look.
The entire second floor was not made up of private rooms, but a lobby like the first floor. The sun was shining brightly at this time, so they chose a table on the balcony outside the house.
Looking from this direction, endless green mountains appear before your eyes like a watercolor painting with layers of peaks.
Looking down closely, the various flowers planted by the proprietress were in full bloom, with nearly a dozen varieties and colors of chrysanthemums alone.
The petals vary in shape and size.
Apart from chrysanthemums, other flowers do not bloom as dazzlingly as these, but they are quite charming in their own way.
The boss brought the food to the table one after another.
At this time, another guest came up to the second floor.
Judging from the footsteps, it seemed that they were walking towards them, probably wanting to enjoy the beautiful scenery here.
Li Nian casually turned his head to look over and was suddenly stunned.
"Mr. Xu?"
Hearing Li Nian's low cry, Li Sisi, who was distracted, instantly perked up.
"Madams, how are you?" Principal Xu bowed politely.
Li Nian and Li Sisi immediately stood up to return the greeting and invited Director Xu to sit with them.
Director Xu was not polite and sat down.
Li Nian asked, "What a coincidence, you're here too?"
Xu Shanchang had a well-placed smile on his face: "Of course it's not a coincidence. I am here waiting for Prince Xiao on the orders of the princess."
Hearing this, Li Nian looked at Xiao Yunyu in confusion: "What's going on?"
While feeding Jin He, Xiao Yunyu replied, "Didn't you ask me to follow the princess? So I listened to you and contacted the princess."
He glanced at Li Sisi, who was clearly distracted. "Xiao Yunchen will be fine. The princess has already made all the arrangements. Otherwise, why do you think the Fourth Prince would listen to you?"
Li Sisi looked bewildered: "So you and Chenchen discussed this? And then you kept it a secret from everyone?"
"Does Xiao Yunchen listen to you?" Xiao Yunyu asked back.
Li Sisi didn't understand what he meant, but still shook her head and said truthfully, "I won't listen."
"That's all right, isn't it? So Xiao Yunchen doesn't know." Xiao Yunyu took a leisurely bite of food and ate it, saying lazily, "Xiao Yunchen has his own ideas, I don't, so I listen to my wife."
After saying that, he looked at Li Nian, his eyebrows slightly raised: "I will help whoever my wife asks me to help."
The tone was quite ostentatious.
Li Nian asked him, "So what are your plans next?"
"I have asked Pei Yanli to bring troops to the capital on the pretext of escorting Xiao Yunya back to the capital." Xiao Yunyu had a wicked smile on his lips.
Li Nian: …
It feels like this guy is causing trouble on purpose.
"Then what?" Li Nian asked.
"Then I will lead the soldiers and the princess to cooperate with us from inside and outside." Xiao Yunyu said with confidence, as if he was not worried at all that this matter would fail.
Li Nian got the point: "So the princess is also in the capital?"
Xiao Yunyu praised: "My wife is really smart. She guessed it right at the first try."
After listening to Xiao Yunyu's arrangements, Li Sisi's worries finally dissipated a little.
Xiao Yunyu warned: "You can't tell anyone about this matter. You must keep it a secret. I will leave tonight. Please help me cover up and don't let my father know."
Li Sisi was puzzled: "Can't you tell my family?"
"How many people do you think will support the princess becoming empress?" Xiao Yunyu's expression grew serious. "This road is not easy to walk. I can do my best to help, but whether she can win the support of the people in the end depends on the princess herself."
Li Sisi nodded: "That's for sure. As long as you show your achievements, you will always convince others."
"I'm afraid that before I can make any achievements, someone will oppose me and disobey my order." Principal Xu said worriedly.
Li Nian whispered, "Then just be a tyrant and kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. Kill them until they dare not oppose you."
Hearing this, Principal Xu looked at her in astonishment: "No, doing so will only lead to greater dissatisfaction."
