But Lin Zan, who was usually very thoughtful, completely ignored this point at this moment. She urged Bixia to go find the Fourth Prince as soon as possible.
In this case, Bixia could only close her eyes, grit her teeth, and leave Hanfang Pavilion ready to die.
"What? There's delicious food at Li Zi's place. I'll go there now." After Jun Anqing knew there was delicious food, he jumped up happily the instant he did so, and followed Bixia to Hanfang Pavilion.
On the way back, Bixia wanted to remind the Fourth Prince something, but finally decided to keep silent. After all, she couldn't afford to offend either side.
I can only pray silently in my heart that when I enter the house, the Fourth Prince will be more tactful and not offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Jun Anqing jumped in after lifting the heavy curtains. He saw the table full of food at a glance, but then he saw his elder brother, the emperor, with a stern look on his face.
"My brother is here too!" Jun Anqing laughed without noticing, then sat down at the table, staring at the food on the table with shining eyes, and said to Lin Zhan. "Li Zi, you are so kind, there are so many delicious dishes."
"No, no, this was brought by the prince. I have a small stomach and can't finish it all by myself, so I called you here." Lin Zan also said happily, and then the two children of the same age started discussing food enthusiastically.
He completely forgot about Jun Beiqi who was sitting next to him.
Just when Jun Anqing was about to pick up his chopsticks, he felt an extremely cold gaze shooting towards him, so he looked up at Jun Beiqi.
"Oh, by the way, this meal was brought by my royal brother. Thank you, my royal brother." Jun Anqing said politely, but the cold look in his eyes did not disappear.
Lin Zan didn't pay any attention to all this. She ate with relish. Then, noticing that Jun Anqing didn't move his chopsticks, she urged him to eat.
Finally, Jun Anqing, who was always simple-minded, noticed something and asked Jun Beiqi cautiously, "Brother, can I eat it?"
"Do you think you can eat it?" Jun Beiqi snorted in his heart and looked at Jun Anqing with a cold face.
Jun Anqing's body trembled immediately and he put down his chopsticks silently.
"Tuanzi, what are you standing there for? Why aren't you eating? I can't finish it all by myself." Lin Zan saw that there were a lot of dishes on the table but he was the only one who picked up his chopsticks. He tilted his head and looked at Jun Anqing in confusion.
Jun Anqing glanced at Jun Beiqi quietly with the corner of his eye, and then blinked at Lin Zan, feeling really caught in a dilemma.
"Tuanzi, what's wrong with your eyes? Did you catch a cold?" Lin Zan still looked as if he didn't notice anything and urged Jun Anqing to eat quickly.
Looking at the table full of dishes, Jun Anqing was already drooling. He shrank his neck, raised his eyes and looked at Jun Beiqi, and asked again, "Royal brother, can I eat it or not?"
"Hmph!" Jun Beiqi snorted coldly and said nothing.
Jun Anqing didn't care about so much anymore. The hunger in his stomach urged him to pick up his chopsticks quickly, so he gritted his teeth and started eating under Jun Beiqi's oppressive gaze.
Then Jun Beiqi saw two half-grown children sweeping the entire dining table like a whirlwind.
After finishing the meal, Jun Anqing rubbed his belly with great satisfaction, while Jun Beiqi squinted his eyes and said, "I heard that Concubine De invited a martial arts master to teach my fourth brother. It just so happens that I am itching to learn martial arts today, so I can have some sparring with my fourth brother."
"Ah?" Jun Anqing, who had just finished his meal, looked at Jun Beiqi with a puzzled expression.
Jun Beiqi didn't give him any chance to react. He pulled him out of Hanfang Pavilion, came to an open space in the Imperial Garden, and threw him a wooden sword.
Lin Zhan, who wanted to watch the fun, naturally would not miss this opportunity, and trotted over, clapping his hands and saying, "Come on, Tuanzi!"
This moment gave Jun Anqing great courage and he nodded heavily, while Jun Beiqi, who was standing over there, had a sharp look in his eyes.
The two men soon started fighting with wooden swords, but Jun Anqing was only a ten-year-old boy and was no match for the prince who had already undergone the ceremony of coming of age.
Defeated in just a few moves, Jun Anqing sat there somewhat deflated, his clothes becoming a little messy from the fight with Jun Beiqi, and he was breathing heavily.
"It seems that your martial arts still need to be improved. Diligence brings success, while laziness leads to failure. You should stay in Chaoxia Palace and improve your martial arts knowledge, so as to avoid being punished again when the emperor conducts a spot check next time."
Jun Beiqi coldly taught Jun Anqing a lesson, then turned and left.
"Why are you so fierce? You're just like an old pedant." Jun Anqing muttered.
Lin Zan wanted to run over to comfort Jun Anqing, but she didn't expect Jun Beiqi to come back and take her away in his arms.
"Your Highness, put me down. Where are we going?" Lin Zan said angrily, fiddling with his short legs in Jun Beiqi's arms.
At this moment, Lin Zan hoped that he could grow up quickly so that he would not be held in someone's arms and be powerless to resist.
Jun Beiqi lowered his eyes and glanced at her, then said to her angrily, "Leave the palace."
When Lin Zhan heard the word "leave the palace", her eyes lit up instantly. She had not seen the scenery of Shangjing yet. "So it means leave the palace? Then I will agree with reluctance."
Then she stayed obediently in Jun Beiqi's arms and didn't move anymore.
Jun Beiqi took out the palace token and led her out of the palace. No one dared to stop him.
"Where are we going? How about going to Changyan Street?" Lin Zan was so excited that he was fidgeting in the carriage. He lifted the curtain to take a few glances outside and reminded Jun Beiqi quietly.
Jun Beiqi's eyebrows knitted together. "You have never been out of the palace, how did you know about Changyan Street?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Zan, who had been extremely excited just now, froze there in an instant.
Changyan Street was the place she longed to go to most when she was reading the book. The Changyan Street in the book was the favorite place for celebrities and ladies. It was equivalent to a combination of a pedestrian street and a super luxury shopping mall in modern society.
"Well... I heard it from Sister Bixia." Lin Zan's mind worked quickly, and then he mentioned Bixia.
Jun Beiqi just smiled slightly, without commenting or asking any further questions. This made Lin Zhan breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that he must be careful in front of this perceptive man.
"Let's go to Changyan Street." After Jun Beiqi finished speaking, he sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to rest, which made Lin Zan's heart excited again.
The carriage soon arrived at Changyan Street. Early in the morning, both sides of the street were already filled with the atmosphere of a market and crowded with people.
