The prince, who was about to go down the stairs, slipped when he heard the sound and almost fell down.

What savior? Aren’t you my savior? Suddenly, the prince thought of something.

Could it be...

When he thought of that possibility, he didn't even bother to say a word to his mother and chased in the direction Yaoyao left.

"Jun'er!"

The queen was worried and followed him.

On the other side, Zhao Chengwen called two imperial guards and said, "Sister, you can leave the palace now. I will send someone to take you back home."

Zhao Jingqi was about to say something when she was suddenly patted twice on the knee.

As soon as she lowered her head, she met a pair of big, dark grape-like eyes.

"Hello, Jiejie~"

Chu Yaoyao opened her little mouth, revealing her few tiny teeth.

As she laughed, her chubby little cheeks puffed up.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that this pink and chubby little face must be very easy to knead.

Zhao Jingqi was slightly stunned and rubbed her fingers, "Uh..." Whose child is this? So cute.

I really want to pinch it.

Want to steal...

Zhao Chengwen, who was standing by, realized that this was the little princess that the emperor had protected at the banquet even though he was injured himself. Looking to the side, he saw that Concubine Shu was there too.

"I have met the little princess and the Concubine Shu."

Hearing this, Zhao Jingqi bowed slightly and said, "Greetings to Her Majesty Shufei."

Then he looked at Yaoyao who was standing beside him and said with a gentle smile: "I have also met the little princess."

"No need to be so polite."

Concubine Shu nodded slightly at them, then looked helplessly at the little girl who kept staring at other girls.

Suddenly I felt sad.

"Yao'er."

"Yeah?" Chu Yaoyao turned around and saw her mother waving at her.

She was reluctant to leave and returned to her mother, looking back every few steps.

Holding his mother's hand, he did not forget to look over there.

[Sister Zhao is so pretty. ]

After hearing this, Concubine Shu pinched the little bun on her head, but she didn't expect it to be a little naughty.

As soon as the prince arrived, he heard those words, and he subconsciously looked at the beautiful figure not far away.

Under the moonlight, the girl stood gracefully, her hair and clothes fluttering in the wind, making her look like a fairy, with curved eyebrows, bright eyes and white teeth...

The prince was slightly stunned.

It seems...it's true.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Zhao Chengwen bowed and saluted.

Hearing the voice, the prince came back to his senses and suppressed the slight throbbing in his heart, "No need to be polite, I am here to convey my father's will."

When the Zhao brothers and sisters heard this, they immediately prepared to kneel down to receive the order.

"Wait a minute!" The prince stopped him, "This is a secret decree, Commander Zhao, let's talk for a moment."

The two men walked a few steps to the side, and the prince whispered to Zhao Chengwen about capturing Xiao Hu.

"I accept your order."

Then Zhao Chengwen hesitated, "But little sister..."

"Commander Zhao, don't worry. I will send someone to escort Miss Zhao back home."

"Thank you very much, Your Highness."

After saying this, Zhao Chengwen strode away with the Imperial Guards.

On the other side, Zhao Jingqi was a little panicked when she suddenly met the prince.

The prince actually had a lot of questions to ask her, including whether she remembered saving a boy eight years ago.

I want to ask her if she has looked for him over the years.

I want to ask her if she still has the token he gave her...

There were so many things he wanted to ask that for a moment he didn't know how to start.

The two of them just remained in strange silence...

[It's so embarrassing. If I keep silent like this, when will Sister Zhao be able to become my sister-in-law? ]

Just when Chu Yaoyao was about to transform into a matchmaker, the prince finally spoke.

"Hey! Miss Zhao, have we met before?"

"puff!"

Chu Yaoyao quickly covered her little mouth, and looked back and forth between the two of them with her big eyes.

[Hahahaha, I can't bear it anymore, I really can't help it, this pick-up line from Prince Brother is too old-fashioned! ]

Hearing this, the prince clenched his fist awkwardly, raised his fist to cover his mouth and coughed lightly.

This is called gradual progress! This is his strategy. What do you, a baby, know? Zhao Jingqi couldn't help but chuckled and asked, "Your Highness is asking about the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the pavilion in the center of the lake in the suburbs?"

How could she forget? She always carried the jade pendant with her.

The prince nodded, "Yes, it's me!"

Looking at the condition of the two, Chu Yaoyao nodded with satisfaction.

[It seems that the prince also likes Sister Zhao. It turns out that Sister Zhao is not just wishful thinking. That's great. ]

Thinking of the original text in the book, Chu Yaoyao felt depressed.

[In the original text, the prince died of asthma caused by allergies and high fever.]

[After the death of the crown prince, Sister Zhao remained unmarried until the father and son of the Zhao family were framed by treacherous officials and died one after another. It happened that there was a war on the border, but there were no generals available in the court. Sister Zhao led the troops to fight, and finally died on the battlefield. ]

The prince's hands hanging by his side trembled slightly.

[Brother Crown Prince, hurry up! If you don't live up to expectations, I will introduce Sister Zhao to someone else. ]

Prince: ...

Why did he suddenly feel that this little brat was a bit annoying? However, Yaoyao brand light bulb did not forget its mission.

She raised her head and said softly, "Mother, it's so cold."

Concubine Shu picked her up and put the cloak on her.

Chu Yaoyao looked over and said, "I've been reminded to this extent, Brother Crown Prince, don't you understand? Hurry up and give the cloak to Sister Zhao."

The prince untied his cloak and handed it over somewhat embarrassedly.

[Oh my god, I thought you had come to your senses, why don’t you put it on me? ]

Chu Yaoyao was so angry that she kept shaking her head.

…

Not far away, the queen turned around with a smile.

"My queen, aren't we going to look for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

The queen shook her head. "What are you looking for? No one is allowed to disturb you!"

Thinking of what she had just seen, the queen lowered her head and chuckled, with an anticipatory look on her face. It seemed that there would be a happy event in the palace soon.

She had to get ready.

He turned around and ordered: "Let the people from the Imperial Observatory and the Monk's Clothing Bureau come tomorrow."

The horoscopes have to match, a good day has to be chosen, and the dress has to be prepared early...

Outside the palace Qian Nianzhi knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes, choking with sobs: "Father, I know I am no longer qualified to be your daughter. Today I thank you for raising me. You must take care of yourself in the future."

After saying that, she left.

"Sister." Qian Tongzhi wanted to stop her but was stopped.

"Father?"

"Oh, let her go."

Qian Nianzhi looked into the distance and said, "Mr. Xue, I'm here. You must wait for me!"

On the other side, Zhao Chengwen had just walked out of Lanyue Palace when he heard someone calling him from behind.

"Butler Su?"

Su Maowen trotted over and said, "Hey, Commander Zhao, you made it so hard for me to find it."

"May I ask what's going on, Steward Su?"

"Your Majesty has ordered Zhao Chengwen to lead the Imperial Guards to capture Xiao Hu!"

Standing up from the ground, Zhao Chengwen looked at Manager Su's back and scratched his head in confusion.

This... Didn’t the prince just convey his decree?
