I went to Yi Zexuan's place instead, intending to talk to him about this.
"Don't you have a tail following you? How dare you come directly to my residence?"
Lin Ziwen sneered: "He's too busy taking care of himself to care where I might go."
"I think you underestimate him."
Lin Ziwen shrugged: "Then let's hope his man can resist the charms of a beautiful woman."
Yi Zexuan was speechless. Anyway, once things got out of hand, he didn't need to worry about these things. A series of events would only leave him feeling powerless.
"By the way, this is a letter from His Majesty to the princess. Please take it to her when you get back."
Lin Ziwen took the letter in surprise: "How did a letter from the palace addressed to the princess end up with you?"
"It's been sitting there for a few days now, and I've been so busy that I'd completely forgotten about it. It all started when the Japanese king was practicing archery in the courtyard. He happened to see two pigeons flying by in the sky, and on a whim, he shot them down with his arrows. Only then did he realize they were carrier pigeons from the palace. He's already sent an apology letter using his own pigeons. From now on, the pigeons from his household that go to the capital will be the princess's."
Lin Ziwen frowned, then laughed: "Why do you always do big things quietly?"
"I don't understand what you mean by that."
"The arrows you used probably didn't have arrowheads, right? The pigeon is probably alright. Tell me, where did you secretly hide it?"
Upon hearing this, Yi Zexuan looked up at him and said, "You're so clever. Those two were just broken by me. Even after they were healed, they were still limping. Now they've become domestic birds."
"Alright." With that, Lin Ziwen put the letter in his pocket, then added, "It will be even easier for the princess to communicate with the palace from now on. But do we still have our own pigeons to communicate with the palace?"
"Of course we have them. We've trained so much already, one more won't make a difference."
Lin Ziwen hummed in agreement: "Then this young master will head back now."
"Let's go back."
The two arrived at their destination and then parted ways.
On the way back to the mansion, Lin Ziwen said to the man, "You did well today, but you are not allowed to leave the mansion for the next few days. You must stay here until it is safe to come out."
"yes."
Upon arriving at the mansion, Lin Ziwen went straight to Su Lixia, who was lying on the couch reading the novel she was wearing.
"My goodness, when will such an exciting scene happen?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Ziwen arrived at the door.
"The princess is resting in her room. Rong Xiaolian, go in and inform her."
"Thank you for your trouble."
Then, Xiaolian went inside and went up to him: "Princess, Young Master Lin has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Su Lixia hummed in response and told him to come in.
Then he tossed the book aside, got up, stretched, and went downstairs.
"Why are you here so early today? You're not here to play Gomoku with me, are you?" Su Lixia smiled wickedly.
Lin Ziwen waved his hand: "I'd better practice some more. Right now, I'm going to be tortured by the princess."
Su Lixia laughed heartily: "Oh dear, it's actually very simple."
"Here, I have something to give to the princess, and I also have some good news to tell her."
"Oh?" Su Lixia looked pleasantly surprised and excitedly rubbed her hands together, saying, "What is it? What is it?"
Lin Ziwen took out the letter: "This is it. It came from the capital. It's a letter from His Majesty to the princess."
Upon hearing this, Su Lixia paused for a moment, then slowly took the letter.
"How did this letter end up with you?"
"I went to the palace this morning to take care of some things, and then I went to the Prince's residence. This was given to me by the Prince, and he asked me to pass it on."
Su Lixia nodded and said, "This is exactly the same plot as what I just read. He went to the palace to do something big, and then came back to find out about the carrier pigeons. However, in the original book, they used their own carrier pigeons to communicate with Shengjing and learn some information from them. Logically speaking, the letter should not have ended up in his hands. Now that he has returned, it seems that what happened in the palace has only just begun."
Seeing that Su Lixia remained silent for a long time, Lin Ziwen waved his hand in front of her: "Princess?"
Su Lixia snapped out of her daze: "Huh?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Su Lixia shook her head: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't received this kind of news in a long time, so I'm a little sad."
"From now on, you'll be able to control these things yourself, and then Granny won't have access to them anymore. Isn't that a good thing?"
Su Lixia nodded and said, "That's right, then please thank Your Highness for me."
"These are minor matters. Princess, you should quickly read what the letter says."
"Okay." After saying that, Su Lixia opened the letter.
"The letter was indeed about this matter." Su Lixia was speechless. Last time, someone sent a message about her period pain back, which made them very distressed. They're probably still worried even though they haven't seen the reply yet.
Lin Ziwen didn't ask what it was about, and just waited for Su Lixia to tell him herself.
"I also need Ziwen to write a reply for me. In the letter, just say that I am doing well here and that everyone should not worry. Last time it was just a small matter, but Granny made a big deal out of it."
"that's all?"
"Let's leave it at that for now and put their minds at ease first."
Lin Ziwen pursed his lips: "Is the princess afraid that they'll worry? I can tell that the princess still misses them very much."
"It's alright, it's nothing. But Ziwen, you're something else. You said you were going to see Ali, but why are you calling her 'princess' all over again?"
Lin Ziwen suddenly realized and exclaimed, "Right, right, right! It's not completely corrected yet, but it will be fine once we get used to it. Let's prepare paper and ink, and I'll write for Ali."
"good."
