Until they finally reached the front of the carriage, Princess Qi Yang refused to tell her directly why she had changed her attitude.

The sudden kindness made Jiang Qingqing dare not let down her guard easily.

It's outrageous.

After getting on the carriage, it drove all the way to the door of the so-called Yingniang shop on East Street.

Jiang Qingqing thought that Ying Niang's shop should be similar to a large restaurant like Fan Lou, but the carriage arrived at an alley but showed no intention of stopping.

Just drive in.

At one point Jiang Qingqing thought the wheels of the carriage were about to slide onto the wall of the alley.

The swaying carriage finally came to a stop as the driver let out a long sigh.

At the end of the alley, there is a different world.

Jiang Qingqing got off the carriage carefully. She was originally worried that she had no place to stay, but as she walked towards the door of the ordinary room, it was as if a new world had suddenly appeared in front of her.

Suddenly, everything became clear.

Looking at the small pond, green willow trees and leisurely bamboo houses in front of me, the style is completely different from the tiled houses in Kyoto.

This place can be said to be a little paradise in Kyoto.

Jiang Qingqing looked around with longing. She only needed to breathe a little harder for a moment to smell a faint fragrance in her nostrils.

It’s hard to describe the fragrance, but it’s definitely not the complex smell that fresh flowers can have.

When Princess Qi Yang saw this place, she didn't look as shocked as Jiang Qing Qing. She was just a little surprised by the sudden simplicity of the atmosphere since she was used to the prosperity of Kyoto.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Linting were the last to walk into the yard. Jiang Chen's first reaction was exactly the same as Jiang Qingqing's.

Princess Qi Yang took a quick look around, sniffed the fragrance in the air, and then said calmly, "It seems that Ying Niang has created some new incense in recent years."

"Is this the incense specially blended?" Jiang Chen was so surprised that he couldn't help but speak.

Princess Qi Yang nodded proudly and pointed to the edge of the pond which was blocked by green bushes.

The brother and sister looked over at the same time.

"See those bushes? There are dozens of the same incense hidden under those broad leaves. The scent gets stronger as you get closer to the pond. I remember Ying Niang said that each season has a different scent, right, Prince Xiao?"

Princess Qi Yang actively explained to Jiang Qingqing the little Easter eggs in Ying Niang's yard. There were some things she was not sure about, so she could only look at Xiao Linting, who was more experienced than her.

Jiang Qingqing keenly noticed that these were not the words Princess Qi Yang used to address her uncle some time ago.

She suddenly seemed to understand something.

As expected, a noble woman like Princess Qi Yang could not win the heart of a cold-faced man like the Emperor's uncle.

Xiao Linting, who was suddenly called, withdrew his gaze from the bamboo house and turned back to look at Princess Qi Yang, pondering for a rare moment.

Then, the uncle asked in confusion, "What did the princess say just now?"

"She asked the emperor's uncle whether the aromatherapy here changes with the seasons." Jiang Qingqing looked up at Xiao Linting and kindly repeated her question on behalf of Princess Qi Yang.

"It's not the four seasons, it's the twenty-four solar terms. Each solar term has a different smell. You'll naturally be able to tell them apart after visiting them many times."

He explained these rules calmly, and at the same time slowly stretched out his hand and gently waved it in front of Jiang Qingqing.

There was no need for too many words, just a slight gesture, and Jiang Qingqing stretched out her little hand without hesitation and held his fingers.

Princess Qi Yang saw Jiang Qingqing walking towards the bamboo house under the guidance of Xiao Linting.

"Do you feel that once Xiao Linting holds the little princess' hand, his walking speed slows down a lot?"

A big boy like Jiang Chen never pays attention to these details, and his shaking head is like a rattle.

"If you can't even see this, what else can you see?" Qi Yang looked at Jiang Chen's straightforward and frank expression, and she became anxious when she saw that no one agreed with her.

Jiang Chen, who was suddenly insulted, turned his head and looked at Princess Qi Yang.

There was a moment of displeasure on his handsome face, but the gloomy mood soon disappeared. He looked at Princess Qi Yang for a long while.

The gaze made Princess Qi Yang feel a little uneasy for no reason.

It was not until Princess Qi Yang could no longer bear the pressure and wanted to escape that Jiang Chen smiled again.

There was no trace of the heaviness from the previous gaze on the clear and bright face of the boy.

"The princess is a girl after all, so it's understandable that she observes more carefully than I do, but it's better not to make such a conclusion without any context."

This was a warning to Princess Qi Yang not to speak nonsense again, so as not to affect his sister's innocent reputation.

Princess Qi Yang stepped aside as if to shield herself from the sun and stopped looking at Jiang Chen's face. She hummed hurriedly and started to chase after Jiang Qingqing and the others.

Jiang Chen watched Princess Qi Yang fleeing in panic. The young man's expression turned from gloomy to cheerful again. After all the gloom between his brows disappeared, he took a step forward to catch up with Jiang Qingqing and the others.

On this side, after Xiao Linting brought the little girl into the bamboo house, he looked at the place that seemed to be a reception area and heard someone running out from the inner room due to some noise.

Jiang Qingqing carefully looked at the person in front of her. Judging from his age, he should be in the prime of his life, but his hair was tied up like a woman, and he wore two hairpins that were so fine that you couldn't tell the quality of jade.

"What a rare visitor! I thought you hadn't been here recently." The beautiful woman spoke decisively with a clear tone, and she seemed to be a generous person.

Xiao Linting didn't explain much, he just lowered his head to glance at the little kid beside him.

Jiang Qingqing stared blankly, pondering the character of the beautiful woman in front of him.

She was vaguely excited to have the inspiration to display so many mysterious little Easter eggs in the yard.

[It can’t be such a coincidence, I’m not meeting an old friend! ]

Xiao Linting was wondering what the little guy was talking about.

The beautiful woman bent down slightly. She was wearing a slightly low-cut skirt.

As she bent down, Jiang Qingqing could see with her peripheral vision...

"Hello, hello."

Even though she had been an empress in her previous life and had seen many female ministers wearing clothes with slightly low necklines, she still felt panicked at first sight.

Jiang Qingqing hid herself behind Xiao Linting, only slightly turning her head to reveal half of it, and her big round eyes moved around restlessly.

Xiao Linting had long guessed that she would bend down, so he looked away early to avoid the scene that he shouldn't see.

As luck would have it, Princess Qi Yang and Jiang Chen arrived late, and Princess Qi Yang saw the beautiful woman from far away outside the door. She had seen the beautiful woman several times and knew her character quite well. After entering the house, she stepped aside and made way.

Jiang Chen, who came hurriedly later, actually ran into that.
