So, this is what Huairou was worried about?
Yuan Yao could understand...
Huairou is the emperor's first daughter, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will likely be granted the title of Grand Princess in the future.
The eldest princess, being the most noble woman besides the empress and empress dowager, must set an example for all women in the world.
From a young age, she was required to be gentle, proper, generous, and dignified in every word and deed.
But now, she, who should be the best role model, is involved in something as trivial as shaving people's heads...
"Sister Huairou," Yuan Yao called out to her.
Huairou lowered her head: "Hmm?"
Yuan Yao looked up at her with her little face: "Sister Huairou, a person's life is neither long nor short."
So, if you want to do something, just do it. Don't let invisible shackles bind you and make you feel wronged.
Huairou was stunned upon hearing this.
After a moment, she smiled gently: "Yao'er, you're right."
She is not yet grown up and does not yet have to fulfill the duties of a princess.
She's still young, so even if she rebels once, no one will blame her.
However, if she rebels, she will blame herself, and perhaps even regret it for the rest of her life...
After figuring things out, Huairou felt very relaxed.
The group left the National Academy and took a horse-drawn carriage to Four Seasons Spring.
Springtime all year round, this time of year is when there are many guests.
In the morning, Yuan Yao specifically told Manager Bai that there was no need to reserve a private room.
We need to save the private rooms to make money!
They all went up to the third floor and entered the study.
The third floor is usually deserted, quiet, and the rooms are spacious enough.
Upon entering the study, the servant brought water and had everyone wash their hands.
Soon, a table full of various desserts and fruits was laid out.
Xie Zhi picked up a piece of melon before asking, "Yun Chan, did you check the route I asked you to look at?"
Xie Zhi took out a route map and circled it with his slender, pale pink fingers: "Enter from here."
The place he was pointing to was the garden of the Rongguo Duke's mansion.
The blueprints showed the names of each courtyard, including Gu Yucha's room...
However, the entire Duke's mansion was marked with many crosses.
These marked areas are all guarded...
Xie Zhi spat out a mouthful of melon seeds: "To get from the garden to Gu Yucha's room, you have to climb over several walls! It's too difficult!"
He'll probably run out of energy if he climbs the wall too many times.
Yun Chan raised her beautiful eyes and gave him a cold look: "The Rongguo Duke's Mansion employs many guards."
"If we enter from another direction, with the prince's agility, are we confident we can bypass him?"
"I had no choice but to ask you," Xie Zhi said, tossing away the melon rind and clapping his hands.
Yun Chan frowned: "Forgive my bluntness, but with the skills of the young master and the young marquis, they would most likely be caught if they went there."
"Bullshit!" Lin Xuan's temper flared up: "I'm a master kung fu master! If you don't believe me, fight me and see who falls first!"
Yun Chan sneered: "Why don't you try?"
Lin Xuan frowned immediately: "Try it then! I just don't hit women, but when it comes to hitting sickly people, I won't hold back!"
"Stop!" Yuan Yao's childish voice stopped the two.
She pushed the two bowls of ice cream forward and gave one to Yun Chan and one to Lin Xuan: "It's hot, cool down, and don't fight!"
Anyone who dares to quarrel during the four seasons of spring, I'll throw them out!
"Hmph!" Lin Xuan glared at Yun Chan.
Yun Chan frowned, raised her hand shakily, and covered her mouth with a cough: "Cough cough..."
He coughed quite forcefully, and his pale skin turned pink from the blood rushing to his face.
Seeing his appearance, Lin Xuan was slightly surprised: "You..."
Yun Chan coughed, her voice slightly hoarse: "It's my body that's failing me, it has nothing to do with the Marquis..."
Lin Xuan felt particularly uncomfortable after hearing these words.
He couldn't hold back and snapped, "I haven't even said anything yet! How can you be so weak that you can't even be spoken to?"
"Someone like you could knock out ten of them with one punch!"
Yun Chan: "Cough cough cough..."
The only sound in the study was his heart-wrenching yet desperately suppressed coughing.
Yuan Yao was in a real bind.
She slammed her hand on the table: "Shut up, all of you!"
Lin Xuan glared at her angrily.
Yuan Yao glared back: "Lin Xuan, the first time I met you, you started fighting with Xie Zhi!"
Xie Zhi is one thing, but if you fight him, just treat it as a friendly exchange of martial arts skills.
But Yun Chan's body is so weak, how can you fight him?
Can't you just give in to him a little?
"Me? Let him have his way?" Lin Xuan said angrily, "I didn't really hit him! I just said a few words to him!"
“Then say whatever you want about him!” Yuan Yao said, “You’ve angered Yun Chan to death. When Chu attacks, you’ll be on the battlefield.”
Lin Xuan: "..."
Lin Xuan was furious.
He might as well just walk away.
However, reason compelled him to stay.
He tried to suppress his anger and looked at Yun Chan.
Yun Chan's skin was already fair, but because of the cough, it turned pinkish, and the veins on the back of her thin hands bulged high...
never mind!
Don't stoop to the level of a sickly person!
Lin Xuan snorted coldly: "Yun Chan, sooner or later, I'll fight you! You'd better get your broken body back soon!"
So annoying!
Despite saying he was annoyed, he picked up a bowl of ice cream.
Yun Chan suppressed a cough: "Let's talk about it later..."
Lin Xuan looked up at him, glared, and said, "Hmph!"
Yuan Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She said, "Once you finish your ice cream, you two are considered to have made up!"
Lin Xuan, who had just swallowed the last bite of ice cream: "?"
Is it too late for him to vomit it out now?
"That's enough!"
Huaiyao pulled out a whip and lashed it on the ground: "I didn't come here today to watch you two argue."
"Quickly, let's discuss how to get revenge for me!"
Xie Zhi finished another piece of cool melon, tapping his fingers on the table: "Let's not delay, let's take action tonight."
"Tonight?" Yuan Yao was somewhat surprised.
Xie Zhi said, "It seems that the Duke of Rong is about to leave the capital."
So that's how it is...
Yuan Yao asked, "Is everything prepared?"
Xie Zhi raised an eyebrow: "Of course."
He got the ink from Yun Chan before leaving the palace yesterday.
Night clothes, sleeping pills, razors, and calligraphy brushes were all readily available.
Xie Zhi stroked his chin: "There's just one thing I'm a little worried about."
"What's wrong?"
Others crowded around.
Xie Zhi hesitated and said, "The problem is, if we disturb the first family, it will be difficult to enter the second family..."
Lin Xuan asked, "How about we split up and each go to one of the houses?"
Xie Zhi sized up Lin Xuan: "No, if you get caught, your father will break your legs."
Lin Xuan silently withdrew his legs.
Huaiyao raised her head and said, "I'm leaving the Rongguo Duke's Mansion to you. Lin Xuan and I will go to the Changdu Marquis's Mansion."
This princess will personally paint a turtle for Bai Wantao!
It's so satisfying to take revenge yourself!
“I said…” Yuan Yao’s sweet, childlike voice rang out from the side.
Immediately, everyone looked at her.
Yuan Yao looked at the group and said, "How about I leave the palace tonight? I'll take care of the Rongguo Duke's mansion?"
She had her bodyguards protecting her, but she really didn't trust the other kids to go...
