Yinzhen boarded the carriage and headed to the restaurant.
The restaurant the Crown Prince arranged was also quite good, but it wasn't Wangyuelou, which belonged to Yinzhen.
Upon entering the private room of the restaurant, Yinzhen curtsied and said, "Greetings, Second Brother Crown Prince."

The Crown Prince was taken aback by what he heard. In fact, he just wanted to have a casual chat with Yinzhen today. Recently, the eldest prince had been making some big moves, and those around him who were helping him were finding it hard to cope.
