Returning to the carriage in Xiaoyaoju, Xian Zijian's expression returned to calm and casual. She leaned quietly on the carriage and looked at a grape she had picked and placed in her hand, her eyes slightly dazed.
"Young madam, are you tired?" Liuli asked softly, taking the thin quilt and placing it on Xian Zijian's legs.
Xian Ziqian breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I'm a little tired, just take a rest. Your marriage to eldest brother is coming soon. You don't have to follow me every day these days to go about your own business. I will call you if anything happens."
.As for the banquet in the evening, you don’t have to show up, there are some things that are better for you that you don’t know.”
Liuli knew that there must be a reason why Xian Ziqian specially made an appointment with Princess Hanyu and Guan Yucheng to have dinner together, and also made a special appointment with Prince Yu and Xian Ziyi. It was not appropriate for her to be present with only these few people.
"Yes." Liuli responded. Seeing Xian Ziqian's brows furrowed slightly, as if she was thinking about something, she stopped disturbing Xian Ziqian and only stayed with her quietly, listening to the crisp sound of the carriage on the road.
This went on until they arrived at Xiaoyaoju, Xian Zijian didn't say another word, and went back to rest.
Zuixian Tower, because the entire restaurant has been rented out by Xian Ziqian in the name of Xiaoyaoju. Although it is brightly lit, there is no noise of people coming and going. There are even many guards standing outside, because Han is the one who is invited.
Princess Jade and Guan Yucheng, as well as Prince Yu, naturally need to be protected by more guards.
Xian Ziqian, who went back to Xiaoyaoju to rest until night, arrived at Zuixian Tower early, earlier than the agreed time. After resting, she seemed to be in much better spirits. Liuli was not with her, and the two guards were not with her.
Hidden somewhere and protected, not appearing in front of others.
"Why do you suddenly want to invite them to dinner?" Xian Zi'ai, who also came early, sat at the table, looked at Xian Zi'an opposite, and asked slightly curiously, "Given your personality, you should not like to deal with these powerful people.
What’s more, you are from Prince Xuan’s palace, and you are a figure that the three of them have to fawn over. Did Mr. Xuan ask you to do this? Hasn’t he come back yet?”
Xian Ziqian shook her head and said casually: "It's just a matter of face. Prince Xuan's Mansion and Guan Mansion have always had a good relationship. My husband and your husband are acquaintances, and they are even closer to the second son of the Guan family. Now he is going to go far away."
Border pass, your customs house must give it away. Prince Xuan’s house must also take care of some face due to emotions and reasons. Besides, I am still the adopted daughter of the Queen Mother and the adopted sister of the emperor. In terms of seniority, I am still the elder of Princess Hanyu.
, she got married and left, and I couldn’t show up due to poor health, so it was appropriate to see her off."
Xian Ziai curled her lips and said with some disdain: "It would be weird to believe you."
"Whatever you want." Xian Ziqian smiled slightly and said half-jokingly, "I originally meant well and knew that you had been harboring thoughts about Prince Yu, but once Princess Hanyu left, it would be difficult for you to see Prince Yu.
I have good intentions to create opportunities for you and Prince Yu, but you are not grateful and still make sarcastic remarks, which really betrays my good intentions."
Xian Zi'ai did not say anything or object. Xian Zi'an was right. Princess Hanyu was indeed an eyesore between her and Prince Yu. However, once Princess Hanyu left the capital and went to the border, she would basically have no chance to see Prince Yu again.
Of course, unless Prince Yu wants to see her, but for now, she is not in Prince Yu's heart that he wants to see her very much and wants to see her at any time.
"Don't you disapprove of my idea of attacking Prince Yu?" Xian Ziai asked after a while.
Xian Zijian smiled slightly and said lightly: "Because I suddenly realized that I really don't like the emperor. If I want this emperor to disappear, there is no other way but to kill him. But simply killing him is a bit wasteful, so why not help you achieve your goal?"
, I will sell you this favor to help you create some opportunities for Prince Yu who has made your decision to ascend the throne."
"You don't like the emperor?" Xian Ziyi was startled, "Why did he offend you?"
Xian Ziqian did not answer, because at this time, there were footsteps coming up the stairs, and the two guards secretly protecting her also reminded her by transmitting sound into her ears, telling her that Princess Hanyu, Guan Yucheng and his wife, as well as Prince Yu, had already arrived.
They parked the carriage outside Zuixian Restaurant, and then told her that they started going upstairs and which floor they reached.
"Are they here?" Seeing Xian Zijia's sudden silence, Xian Ziyi immediately looked at the door of the single room, and then listened to the increasingly clear footsteps outside, "They are indeed here. I haven't seen Hanyu in this time.
The princess and Guan Yucheng don’t know what they are busy with.”
Xian Ziyi still didn't answer Xian Ziyi's question, but just looked at the door of the single room.
"You are already here." The first person to come in was Prince Yu, with a smile on his face, the same as the one he saw at the Queen Mother's place in the morning. He said, glancing at Xian Zi Ai quickly, "It's just a distance away.
Seeing that the lights here are bright, but there are not many people, and there are a lot of guards, the princess you like is really thoughtful and cautious, no wonder grandma has always liked you."
Although he was talking to Xian Ziyi, his eyes always glanced at Xian Ziyi.
"It was my elder sister who reminded Zi Xian to do this."
Being smart and reserved, it is inevitable that some people will like her and others will hate her. She was afraid that someone in the palace would miss her, so she repeatedly told Zi Yun to pay special attention to her safety. So Zi Yun specially added some guards."
"Zi Ai has always been so considerate." Prince Yu pretended to be casual and said.
A hint of shyness flashed across Xian Zi Ai's face, "Prince Yu is always considerate and always considers Zi Ai's emotions. Zi Ai is willing to do anything for Prince Yu. This is sincere and not intentional."
"I know," Prince Yu said gently, and sat down at the table. When the guards he brought saw that Prince Yu had already sat down and there was no one else in the room, and Prince Yu gestured for them to go out, they quickly followed him.
Disappeared outside the door, "There are no outsiders here, no need to be polite."
The door that had just been closed was opened again, and Princess Hanyu and Guan Yucheng walked in from the outside.
"Brother Yu." Princess Hanyu looked at Prince Yu with an expression of joy on her face and said in a cheerful voice, "When Hanyu was outside, he saw a carriage that looked like it belonged to the palace. She was wondering if you would
Come here when you have time, and it turns out to be you. Hanyu is so happy that he can sit down and talk with you in private before leaving. Grandma is doing well, and Hanyu misses her very much."
