Chapter 172 Peach Blossom Pavilion



Tao Xi Xuan

"Master, Tao Xi Xuan has been open for five days now, and Miss Xiao has not yet arrived. Perhaps Miss Xiao is not from Feng Lan Kingdom?"

"Yes, Miss Xiao should have already returned to her own country."

Yu Qian and Yu He saw Jun Qingzhi standing by the window, and after thinking for a moment, they spoke up.

Jun Qingzhi had been in this room for five days, hoping to see Xiao Xi'er.

"You can all leave."

Yu Qian and Yu He stepped out of the side room and exchanged a glance.

"Yu He, what do you think of Miss Xiao?"

"I don't know, maybe she'll be treated like a younger sister, after all, the Prince's mansion was originally supposed to have a third young lady."

"Yu He, what exactly is this Miss Xiao like? I've never met her before."

"There should be a chance to meet again in the future."

The two of them had already gone down from the third floor to the second floor.

Yu He stood at the top of the stairs on the second floor and looked down.

"Yu Qian, go wait on the first floor."

"If you see Miss Xiao, go and report to your master."

After saying that, Yu He was about to go upstairs when Yu Qian pressed down on his shoulder.

"Yu He, I've never even met that Miss Xiao, how would I know?"

"..."

"Never mind, you go upstairs to serve the master, I'll go downstairs."

"Alright, I'll go downstairs with you. I'll go make a pot of tea for the master."

The two continued down to the first floor, where Yu He stayed at the money collection and accounting area.

Yu Qian went to make tea for Jun Qingzhi.

The eastern half of the third floor of Taoxi Pavilion was divided into two rooms.

One is a private room, and the other is a sleeping room.

Jun Qingzhi stood in the side room, still looking down at the street below.

There was a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

——————

The small group, having just crawled out of the dog hole, were strolling leisurely down the road.

At this moment, Bai Zhong suddenly appeared in front of the group and looked at them.

"Young masters and ladies, you must remember not to reveal the princess's identity."

"Furthermore, outside the palace, the princess's surname is Xiao, and her name is Xiao Xi'er."

Bai Tangyan was startled by Bai Zhong's sudden appearance. After listening to what Bai Zhong said, Bai Tangyan asked a question.

"Who are you?"

"And how did you get out?"

"I am the princess's guard; remember, you must not reveal the princess's identity."

Bai Zhong sensed someone approaching, so he used his light-footed skill to hide in the shadows. Unaware of this, Bai Tangzhi and the others assumed Bai Zhong had simply left.

"No!! Little Xi'er, is this your guard???"

"Yes, these are the guards Daddy gave me!"

"That's my boyfriend~"

After hearing this, Bai Tangyan thought about Bai Zhong from earlier and felt that Bai Zhong was very unreliable.

"Little Xi'er, I don't think your guard is reliable."

"No, that's not true~, the guard is very nice."

Bai Zhong, hiding in the shadows, had no idea why Bai Tangyan considered him unreliable, and he also never expected Xiao Xi'er to defend him.

"Little Xi'er, what Yan'er means is, since he is your bodyguard, why doesn't he protect you closely?"

"He disappeared as soon as he finished speaking. How can he protect you?"

Qin Jingke also took Xiao Xi'er's hand and said what he wanted to say.

"Yeah, sister, how can he protect you like that?!"

"Well... I don't know either... anyway, the guard is really good."

"Those are secret guards."

"Zi Xu is right. Presumably, that guard was His Majesty's, and he assigned people to protect Xiao Xi'er."

Everyone looked at Fang Zixu and Wei Yuanxuan, their eyes questioning, "How did you two know those were secret guards?"

"The old man said that only the Emperor can have secret guards."

"And you, Wei Yuanyuan, how did you know?"

"this……"

After Fang Zixu finished speaking, Xiao Xi'er looked at Wei Yuanxuan, wanting him to explain how he knew about the secret guards, but she didn't hear him say anything.

So she asked it herself, and after asking, she saw Wei Yuanxuan looking conflicted.

Torn between two thoughts, Wei Yuanxuan thought of Wei Kun, and then of his mother who had been bullied by Wei Kun. He leaned down and whispered something in Xiao Xi'er's ear.

Xiao Xi'er's eyes widened after hearing this, and then Wei Yuanxuan covered her mouth.

"Little Xi'er, promise me. You can only tell your father about this; you can't tell anyone else."

Okay~

The others who hadn't heard Wei Yuanxuan speak all looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

But they didn't hear anything, so the group gave up.

Then the group resumed their walking.

"Sister, since your surname is Xiao, can I also have the surname Xiao?"

"Hmm... I think so."

"Yay, I share the same last name as my sister again!"

“I called Xiao Jingke outside the palace,”

Okay, okay!

"I'm Xiao Xi'er~"

As she spoke, Xiao Xi ran in front of the group, stood there, turned around to look at her five friends, and said with a smile.

Okay, we've got it.

After the group walked over to Xiao Xi'er, Bai Tangyan and Fang Zixu quickly took one of her hands each.

Qin Jingke, who was a step too slow, looked at his short legs and began to feel annoyed, thinking that his legs were too short.

Then he quickly ran to follow Bai Tangyan. Why not Fang Zixu? Because Qin Jingke and Fang Zixu didn't get along.

"Little princess, where are you going?"

The group of people walking along stopped when they heard the word "little princess" and turned around to see Qi Sinan.

Qi Sinan was bewildered by the angry and dissatisfied looks from the six people.

He even took a step back.
