"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Xiao."

"It's my duty. I rescued you, so of course I have to take full responsibility. I can't let you, a weak..." Woman. Xiao Jinyu looked at Miss Han, who was taller than himself, and it felt awkward to use the term "weak woman" to describe her.

He simply changed his words, "I can't let a girl like you wander around outside. Although my family is big and has many rules, it's still easy for a girl like you to stay at home."

Han Yan looked at Xiao Jinyu with his cold eyes. His noble aura could not be concealed even when he was wearing ordinary clothes.

"I'm a little curious about how big Mr. Xiao's house is?"

Xiao Jinyu approached Miss Han with a fan covering her face, and said mysteriously, "My home is in the palace. It's big enough, right?"

Han Yan nodded, revealing a rare look of surprise, "Then Young Master Xiao is the prince?"

Xiao Jinyu did not deny it, because when they arrived at the palace, her identity would naturally be revealed, so there was no need to make it clear now.

He held his folding fan lightly and said quietly, "I am the seventh oldest prince, and my title is Prince Yu. You can call me Prince Yu."

Han Yan said: "Prince Yu is of noble status, and I am flattered to come and pick me up in person."

Xiao Jinyu sighed: "If I don't come to pick you up in person, you can't come in!"

The Queen is heavily guarded, how can an ordinary citizen enter as she pleases?

Han Yan: “…”

After entering the palace gate, the carriage drove smoothly to Qiancheng Hall.

After the carriage stopped, the attendants lifted the curtain, Xiao Jinyu stood up and got off, naturally standing beside the carriage, intending to personally help Miss Han get off the carriage.

But he always ignored the fact that Miss Han's legs were longer than his, and thought that Miss Han was a weak girl who needed his care everywhere.

When Miss Han came out of the carriage, Xiao Jinyu reached out her hand to help her.

Han Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the beautiful hand in front of him. It was white and slender, and it was obvious at a glance that it was a hand that had never done any rough work.

She paused, but still put her hand on the beautiful hand, then got out of the carriage.

Xiao Jinyu watched Miss Han's slender legs easily get off the carriage, and then he realized that his action was a bit unnecessary.

After everyone got off the carriage, Xiao Jinyu silently withdrew his hand and pointed at the plaque above his head and said, "This is Qiancheng Hall."

Han Yan raised his eyes to look at the plaque above his head. The three characters "Qiancheng Hall" were written in stone.

Afterwards, Xiao Jinyu brought Miss Han in and first took her to Yuqing Pavilion where she would live in the future.

Xiao Jinyu had Yuqing Pavilion cleaned up in advance and decorated it specially. The whole room was pink, and even the tree at the door was a peach tree. It was very suitable for a girl to live in.

Since Han Yan walked into the Yuqing Pavilion, all he saw was pink, even the curtain at the door was pink.

Xiao Jinyu was very satisfied with the place he had chosen. "You will live here from now on. Ping'er will still serve you. If you need anything, you can tell me directly."

Han Yan nodded: "Yeah."

Xiao Jinyu leaned close to Miss Han's ear and said, "You don't have to be so restrained in Qiancheng Hall, but you still have to follow the rules outside Qiancheng Hall, such as addressing yourself as a slave."

Han Yan asked back: "Why a slave?"

Xiao Jinyu said: "You are a maid now. If you don't call yourself a slave, what do you want to call yourself?"

Han Yan thought for a while and asked, "Is it not possible for me?"

Xiao Jinyu glanced around, then took Miss Han's hand and walked into the inner room.

Han Yan followed in with doubts.

When Ping'er saw their intimate behavior, she covered her mouth and laughed secretly while packing her luggage.

After entering the house, Xiao Jinyu held Miss Han's hand and said seriously, "How can you, a girl, call yourself a concubine casually?"

Han Yan asked back: "I am Prince Yu's person now, why can't I call myself a concubine?"

"But you are nameless and without status now!"

Xiao Jinyu was stunned, thinking back to how he had risked being beaten to borrow five thousand taels of gold from the prince to redeem Miss Han, with the purpose of saving her.

It is true that beautiful women love heroes.

Now the scene of the drama of pledge of love has appeared, what should he do? Marry her? Or marry her?

Han Yan took a step forward and looked down at Xiao Jinyu, "Is Prince Yu in a difficult situation?"

Xiao Jinyu subconsciously took a step back, steadied himself, and waved his folding fan to ease his embarrassment.

"Miss Han is as beautiful as a flower. It is my honor to marry you. But, Miss Han, have you reached the age of marriage?"

Although Miss Han has a slender figure, she is beautiful and has a bit of girlish tenderness between her eyebrows and eyes.

This was also the first time Xiao Jinyu saw her, and he immediately wanted to save her and protect her.

Han Yan was stunned when he heard this, and calculated his age in his mind for a long time...

She simply nodded, "It should be."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

"It's just right. I am not yet twenty years old..." Xiao Jinyu was stunned. Miss Han has already reached the age of marriage?

She stared at Miss Han for a long time, and she didn't seem to be lying.

Han Yan's cold eyes were full of seriousness: "Prince Yu, do you think it's feasible?"

Xiao Jinyu waved his folding fan, "There's no rush for these things. I'll have someone take you to get familiar with Qiancheng Hall."

Having said that, the man slipped away.

Han Yan stood straight in front of the round table, looking at Xiao Jinyu's leaving back, and slightly curled the corners of his lips.

After coming out, Xiao Jinyu put away his folding fan and looked back at Yuqing Pavilion. He sighed and nodded in agreement as he almost couldn't resist the temptation.

Miss Han is really beautiful, like snow on the mountain and the moon between the clouds.

It would be such a pity to be a concubine.

Xiao Jinyu, fanning herself with a folding fan, planned to go to the East Palace to have a meal and chat with the Crown Prince.

It was time to light the lamps.

In winter, it gets dark early.

Just as Xiao Jinyan was about to leave for Xiyun Pavilion for dinner, he saw Xiao Jinyu walking in, waving a folding fan, looking like a dandy young man.

"Leaving the palace again?"

Xiao Jinyan put away his folding fan somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, I went to pick her up. I just came to have a drink with my brother the prince after I settled her down."

"I'm going to Xiyun Pavilion to have dinner now. Let's meet next time." Xiao Jinyan stood up and did not intend to keep his brother for dinner just because he came.

Xiao Jinyu just came here to eat for free, and he didn't care where.

"Then I'll go too. It's a good opportunity to see how those little cuties are doing."

It would be fine if we didn't mention those "cuties". As soon as Xiao Jinyan mentioned them, his face darkened. "They are well taken care of. So well that you can't recognize them anymore."

Xiao Jinyu laughed when he heard this, "Brother, stop joking, how could I not recognize them?"

Xiao Jinyan ignored Xiao Jinyu's questioning and asked, "When do you plan to return the five thousand taels of gold?"

Xiao Jinyu was immediately paralyzed, "Brother, I don't have that much money now. When I have it, I will return it to you as soon as possible."

"Xiao Jinyan snorted and walked out.

Xiao Jinyu followed slowly.
