On the first day of the new year, paying respects to the new year was an eternal theme. When Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai were in the capital, other than the emperor, no one had ever needed them to personally pay a visit to him.
In the capital, people with status and position were everywhere. There were always a few that could not be avoided.
It was not that he did not want to go, but his father had already reported him to the palace. As his son, he naturally had to wait for an opportunity in the Prince Duan's Mansion.
"That's right. Your highness only returned last night. Isn't it an urgent matter for you to leave early in the morning?" Coincidentally, Son of Prince Duan and Chu Hao arrived one after the other. Hearing Son of Prince Duan's words, Chu Hao also asked a question.
"There's no urgent matter. The prince and his wife left the city for the new year." Facing the questioning of the bystanders, Warmth said that if the Prince had something to do, he could pass it on. However, Son of Prince Duan and Chu Hao were not so easy to pass on.
"New Year outside of the city? This New Year celebration … Do I have to leave the city? " Chu Hao raised her eyebrows and thought of what she saw at the palace banquet last night. Her eyes lit up as she jokingly said: "It can't be the two of you, the prince and the wangfei, right?"
"Err …" Warm Winter hesitated for a moment. Under the gaze of Son of Prince Duan and Chu Hao, she earnestly nodded her head: "Yes."
Early in the morning, the Prince and the Princess changed into new clothes. They only said that they were going out and that no one was allowed to disturb them.
"As expected..." Chu Hao nodded his head in understanding and revealed a meaningful smile.
The Son of Prince Duan did not understand, and asked curiously: "What happened, did I not know?"
Of course, Son of Prince Duan had heard some of what happened at the palace banquet last night, but regarding the details between Xiao Jiu'an and himself, he had not the least bit of knowledge.
How could his spies report such things? It was already not easy for him to find out about the matters of the palace.
"Nothing..." It's just that the relationship between the Prince Yanbei and the wangfei is really good. " Chu Hao had a brilliant smile on his face. On his face and eyes, there was something he wanted to do. There was something fun to do, but on the surface, he said it as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.
"Do you think I would believe it?" Son of Prince Duan looked at Chu Hao with a smile that wasn't a smile. She didn't give Chu Hao any chance to refuse and the two Son of Prince Duan brothers gently patted Chu Hao's shoulders: "Let's go. On the first day of the new year, meeting is fate.
After saying this, he didn't care if Chu Hao was willing or not. He dragged his people and walked towards the parlour. Of course, Son of Prince Duan would never forget to instruct Dong Ri so that she could clean up the mess at the table.
With Chu Hao's ability, if he wanted to struggle free of the Son of Prince Duan, even taking down the Son of Prince Duan would be a matter of a few minutes.
He and the Son of Prince Duan, one was allied with Xiao Jiu'an, the other was allied with him, both of them were connected to the Prince Yanbei, so they needed to get to know each other well, so that they wouldn't get along in the future.
The Son of Prince Duan dragged Chu Hao away, and the two borrowed Ji Yunkai's temporary residence to have a friendly exchange.
With the Son of Prince Duan deliberately trying to befriend them, and with the cooperation of Chu Hao, although the two of them were communicating for the first time, they were extremely speculative. When they came out, they would call each other by their names, and their relationship was as good as brothers.
When Winterpeak saw this scene, he silently memorized it and prepared to report it to Ji Yunkai.
Other than Son of Prince Duan and Chu Hao, Xiao Shaorong had also come on behalf of the Xiao Family. Xiao Shaorong was not surprised that she did not see him.
As Xiao Jiu'an's trusted aide, he knew a little more than the others, but of course, only a little more.
Feng Qi and Fei Xiao Chai also came, and upon learning that Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai had gone out early in the morning, Feng Qi paused for a bit, took the gift, and left.
As for the reason?
Fei Xiao Chai didn't say anything. Warm Winter didn't ask and just settled him down to receive the next batch of guests …
This year, there was an endless stream of people who came to offer greetings to Xiao Jiu'an.
But as the main culprit who should be attending the gathering, Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai were extremely relaxed. The two of them left the city early in the morning and arrived at Prince Yanbei's Mansion's villa outside the city.
The servants in the Villa seemed to have received the news a long time ago, and were not surprised at all by Xiao Jiu'an's and Ji Yunkai's arrival.
"So you already had a plan." Seeing the new year atmosphere around the manor, Ji Yunkai looked at Xiao Jiu'an meaningfully.
"Yes." Xiao Jiu'an responded coldly. Without even looking at Ji Yunkai, she brought Ji Yunkai to the backyard.
Last night, there was a snowfall in the capital city. The servants had already cleaned up the snow on the ground, but there was still a layer of not considered thin snow on the branches and roof.
Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai were dressed in black and red capes, they walked side by side towards the courtyard.
Unfortunately, both of them were oblivious.
There was a brazier in the backyard, which was extremely warm. Before even stepping into the room, Ji Yunkai was already sweating profusely, and had no choice but to take off her cape.
As soon as Ji Yunkai undid the buckle, Xiao Jiu'an reached out and took her cape, then casually put it on her arm.
After taking off the heavy cloak, Ji Yunkai heaved a sigh of relief. Seeing that Xiao Jiu'an was still wearing the cloak, she could not help but ask, "Aren't you hot?"
"It's not hot." Xiao Jiu'an replied with an indifferent expression, she looked no different from before, she was even colder than usual, as if she was deliberately maintaining a distance.
