"His Highness doesn't like to drink medicine. Coincidentally, Senior An wasn't in the manor for a few days. Presumably, His Highness hasn't taken any medicine since then."

Zi Hui paused, and asked curiously: "Princess, why are you bringing up this matter?"

After a moment of silence, surprise filled her eyes, as well as a hint of happiness that was hidden beneath them. "Could it be that you want to know more about His Highness?"

This was a good thing!

Absolutely, very good!

"…"

What was this all about …

Lin Xuecha glanced at Zi Hui coldly.

She was only looking at the time, to determine if the person last night was Su Nanxing or not …

What was she so excited about?!

When she was studying the ink today, she could smell the scent of the black bamboo.

It is also called the smell of ink.

Su Nanxing spent his days in the study room. As time passed and he got closer, more or less, he would get the smell of something like that.

However, he often drank medicine, and once he took the medicine, he would have the fragrance of medicine on him, which was not strange.

Su Nanxing was sick the day before yesterday, he had already been taking the medicine the day before yesterday.

However, the man from last night had the scent of Ink Bamboo Incense on his body …

A trace of light quickly slipped past Lin Xuecha's clear eyes.

~ Could it be that the ingrate is really not Su Nanxing?

In the end, was she being overly suspicious …

Grand Guanyin Temple was the largest, most prestigious ancestral temple in the entire Tianchen Kingdom.

The people of Tianchen Kingdom, the believers of Buddha, were more respectful than the people of other nations.

Lin Xuecha slowly walked out of the palace gate.

She wore no makeup on her face, and her clothes were still simple and elegant.

However, thinking about what Marquis Anping's Wife said, she changed into palace attire today.

It looked like a princess.

Lin Xueyu left the residence earlier than Lin Xuecha.

A thin veil covered her impeccable face.

Second Madame stood beside her and when she saw Lin Xuecha, she did not have much emotion on her face.

On the other hand, Lin Xueyu looked at her twice, and then asked indifferently, "Elder sister, do you want to take the Elder Sister Lian's carriage?"

Empress had always liked Lin Xueyu, but compared to Baili Lianer, she loved him a little more.

Baili Lianer wanted to go to Grand Guanyin Temple and pay respects to the Buddha, but no one accompanied him on the way.

Lin Xuecha looked down upon her and dragged her away.

Lin Xuecha smiled faintly, "The Emperor said that I should go with His Highness. Thinking about it, I should go to His Highness's carriage."

Hearing her words, Lin Xueyu did not pester her any further.

That is, do not use a woman's ring, to reprimand her, men and women had better different cars, or reputation is likely to be damaged.

He also did not use harsh words to mock her frivolous personality. She actually walked on the same carriage as him.

She only looked deeply into Lin Xuecha's eyes, and then started a conversation with Second Madame.

The Second Madame instructed her in a low voice, "Don't drink too much of the cold water in the temple. The Grand Guanyin Temple's temple is built on top of a tall mountain and the temperature at night is very low.

"Even if you can't sleep, remember to wear an extra shirt when you go out. Also …"

Lin Xueyu, on the other hand, patiently listened and responded.

There was no sign of impatience.

Seeing how filial they were, Lin Xuecha's indifferent gaze shifted, and his heart suddenly hurt.

A thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

If her mother hadn't been killed by that slut, would it be …

Could it be that she could also grow up in such a happy manner? Could she also experience the feeling of being exhorted and pitied by others?

In the sunlight, her face was somewhat pale.

Her delicate, jade-like hand, which was covered under her wide sleeve, had long since clenched into a fist. Her palm emitted a faint chill.

Unfortunately, there won't be, there won't be, there won't be, there won't be at all.

Her mother had died ten years ago, right before her eyes, right by her side.

She had been motherless a long time ago, and she had been …

No one paid attention to Lin Xuecha, and no one wanted to pay attention to her either.

She didn't know where her focus was.

It was just that when he saw the water vapor in the corner of his eyes, Lin Xuecha suddenly bit his lips.

Then, he slowly looked up at the top of his head, forcing the mist in his eyes back until his vision was clear.

When she looked at Lin Xueyu once again, the mother and daughter pair, Lin Xuecha's expression had already returned to normal.

Looking towards Lin Xueyu's direction, there were three horse carriages rapidly approaching from the east.

The other one was coming slowly from the direction right opposite the main gate of Marquis Anping Palace.

Lin Xuecha had sat on Su Nanxing's carriage before, so he naturally knew what Su Nanxing's carriage looked like.

Her gaze landed on that horse carriage, right opposite the entrance of Marquis Anping Palace.

The carriage sped forward, blocking the three carriages that were coming from the east.

Qian Wu's face revealed himself, he got off the carriage and nodded at her.

Lin Xuecha had not yet spoken when Zi Hui moved.

Zi Hui said, "Princess, Your Highness wants to invite the princess over."

Her voice was not loud, just loud enough for everyone nearby to hear.

There was a complacent look on Ting Zhu's face, as if he was saying, just wait and see, how good Princess Jing Ran treats my family's princess.

At the front of the line...

Every year, Capital City would send someone to pay respects to the Buddha.

In particular, the sons and grandsons of princes who had been personally appointed by the old emperor represented a supreme honor.

Moreover, on the road to Grand Guanyin Temple, the noble person who walked at the very front meant that a joyous event was bound to happen this year.

Lin Xueyu indifferently swept a glance at Qian Wu, and then looked at Lin Xuecha.

At this time, in the second carriage to the east, someone lifted the carriage's curtain, "Princess Yuexi, Princess Luoxi, my family's young lady requests the two princesses to come together."

Lin Xuecha walked towards Su Nanxing and stopped in her tracks.

There was a saying that when there were many choices, once the choice was wrong, it was either a blessing or a curse.

Baili Lianer was considered a popular person to the empress.

She also seemed to have a good personality, and her reputation in the palace was also very good.

If he rejected her invitation, it would be equivalent to offending her.

Offending her was equivalent to offending the empress, and even more so, someone who liked her …

She, Lin Xuecha, was a woman who had just regained her Capital City and had already been targeted by others before she could even stand steadily.

He even broke off the engagement with someone from the royal family, becoming a joke in the eyes of the world. His reputation was ruined, what qualifications did he have to reject the invitation of a girl that the empress doted upon?

Lin Xueyu had already taken a step forward as he walked towards Baili Lianer.

Maybe because she heard that Lin Xuecha did not make any movements, she turned around.

Looking at Lin Xuecha, she said: "Elder sister, why aren't you following me?"

Lin Xueyu's voice was extremely pleasant to hear, it was extremely similar to the voice of a skylark, clear and pleasant to hear.

On the east side, the carriage that was last in line was immediately lifted by someone.

That person's face was exquisite, she was extremely pretty, his gaze was locked on Lin Xueyu's body, and the corner of his mouth raised in a big curve.

The man jumped down the horse carriage, without caring about the attendant beside him warning him, he walked over to Lin Xueyu's side with big strides, "Little Sister Xueyu."

Lin Xuecha bowed to him slightly. "Xueyu greets Fifth Prince."

"Little Sister Xueyu doesn't need to be so courteous." Fifth Prince Su An was full of smiles on his face, but also felt a little uneasy.

The atmosphere immediately became tranquil, and his expression seemed to grow more anxious and uneasy.

Su An didn't know where to place his hands, it was the second time he got so close to a beauty, it was really …

It really did seem like a dream.

After a moment of hesitation, he opened his mouth and spoke with a sincere expression.

"Little Sister Xueyu, look, my carriage is big, why don't you share a carriage with me? Your sister can sit with Lian'er, we can sit together.

After he asked the question, before Lin Xueyu could even answer, the carriage curtain beside Qian Wu was slowly lifted.

A slender white hand was revealed, but the curve of the curtain wasn't too great. The face of the person inside the carriage couldn't be seen.

He could only hear the faint voice of the person in the carriage, like water slowly flowing in a small stream, cold and indifferent.

"Snow tea, come here."

In this dynasty, if one were to say that the power of the empress mattered, then …

The authority of an Emperor was supreme.

Baili Lianer was doted upon by the empress, but Su Nanxing was doted on by the old emperor.

Once Su Nanxing said this, the following matter was naturally easier for her to handle.

Lin Xuecha lowered his head, and bowed towards the direction of Baili Lianer's carriage.

She opened her mouth and softly said, "Xueju thanks Elder Sister Lian for your kindness, but master's orders cannot be disobeyed. I hope that Elder Sister Lian will not be angry."

Finished speaking, she stood up, swept a glance at the Fifth Prince who was looking at her after hearing the noise, and slightly nodded.

Then, he walked to Su Nanxing's carriage and got on.

Once inside the carriage, Lin Xuecha half knelt in the middle of the carriage, and started to pile up the books beside Su Nanxing, until no one was sitting.

Then, like Su Nanxing, she sat on the same side as him.

The man in the car glanced at her, his eyes neutral.

Lin Xuecha smiled at him, "Xueju suddenly wants to sit by the side with Master. Master, do you mind?"

These words were of course a lie.

The location of the Grand Guanyin Temple was quite far away.

Given the speed of the carriage, it would take them at least dusk to reach the foot of the mountain.

After that, he used two hours to climb up to the temple. It just so happened that it was dark.

It was impossible for her to not rest for the day.

Furthermore, on the road of Grand Guanyin Temple, it was not easy to walk on it, and it would probably be extremely bumpy.

After last time's lesson, she wouldn't fall twice in the same place.

She didn't believe it. The two of them were sitting on the same side, but no matter how much the carriage jolted, no matter how heavy her sleep, would there be any other accidents?!

At most, she would just be thrown to the other side of the carriage …

However, it was impossible for them to have any sort of intimate contact with him.

The man didn't seem to see through her thoughts. He only shifted his gaze back to the book in his hands.

He was silent, neither saying nor saying that he minded.

To Su Nanxing, this kind of casual response, Lin Xuecha had long seen through. He did not expect his response.

It was done, and she asked if he didn't mind. It was just a formality, a polite way of speaking, how could Su Nanxing reject her?

Lin Xuecha lifted a corner of the carriage curtain beside him.

He happened to see Lin Xueyu and bowed towards the Fifth Prince Su An, then heard her say:

Thank you for your kind intentions, just that Xueyu had made an agreement with the Elder Sister Lian long ago to sit together with her in the carriage.

Seeing Lin Xueyu getting up, Fifth Prince Su An walked towards Baili Lianer's carriage, looking anxious.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to say something, he suddenly heard a berating voice that ruthlessly struck towards Fifth Prince Su An.

"Fifth brother, are you done yet?"
