Early morning of the second day, before Duan Yunfei had awoken, Xiao Yang prepared to leave the palace to invite Zuo Yuan and Wu Shan into the palace.
"Xiao Ya, I'm going out of the palace. If Princess doesn't wake up soon, you can let her sleep for a while. Princess is a bit tired yesterday."
Last night, Duan Yunfei and Xiao Yang had a long conversation through their knees, and only when the sky was about to brighten did they reluctantly return to the hall to rest. Xiao Yang could not bear for Duan Yunfei to show exhaustion on her face because of getting up early today, so he instructed Xiao Ya to let Duan Yunfei sleep a little longer.
"Xiao Ya understands, big sister Xiao Yang, do you need Xiao Ya to tell the princess when you're coming back?"
Last night, Xiao Yang and Duan Yunfei had already requested to head to Wei Yuan Residence and Zuo Xiang Fu, so it was likely that Duan Yunfei knew she wasn't there, and was able to guess where she was going.
"You just need to tell the princess that I have matters to attend to outside the palace. Princess, she understands. That's right, before the princess wakes up, ask the royal kitchen to prepare the brunch. The Princess does not like food that is too hot. When the Princess has washed up, the temperature of the brunch would be the most suitable. "
Xiao Ya did not have the experience of attending to Duan Yunfei after she woke up to wash and eat. Xiao Yang was worried that Xiao Ya would not be able to take care of Duan Yunfei properly, so he urged her on a little more.
Xiao Ya memorized every single one of Xiao Yang's words. This was the first time she had served Duan Yunfei alone, so she definitely could not make a mistake.
"Sister Xiao Yang, don't worry, I will definitely do my best."
"Then I will leave the palace with ease." Just as Xiao Yang was about to leave, Xiao Ya hesitated for a moment, then pulled on the corner of her clothes and said softly: "Big sister Xiao Yang, did I cause trouble for the princess yesterday?"
"Aren't you just causing trouble for the princess?" [You have caused trouble for the Young Master. He is standing right there. You splashed water all over him. Not only did he not get angry, he even begged for mercy on your behalf. Yet, you actually refused to appreciate it.] Tell me yourself, what shall I say about you? " Xiao Yang stopped in his tracks and thought for a moment to teach them a lesson.
"I... "I know I made a mistake …" Xiao Ya was aware that she was in the wrong, so she could only say that she knew she was in the wrong.
"That's right, today is the first day that Xiao Gui Zi will be in Red Luan Palace. Don't ever go against him again, have you remembered it?"
When Xiao Yang saw Xiao Gui, who was cleaning the fallen leaves, remembered that from today onwards, he would be working with Xiao Ya. Thinking about Xiao Ya's attitude towards Xiao Gui, Xiao Yang couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Aiya, Sister Xiao Yang, you and Princess have already said this many times, I really will remember it. I've decided that I will never cause trouble for him, so you can rest assured. "
Since Xiao Ya had already said so, Xiao Yang did not want to blabber anymore. After all, the sun was about to rise and she was still rushing out of the palace to invite Wu Shan and Zuo Yuan. It had to be said that there was still some distance between the Wei Yuan Residence and the Zuo Xiang Fu.
This was the first time Xiao Yang had gone to the Wei Yuan Residence alone. Previously, when they came here together, Xiao Yang felt that the Wei Yuan Residence was not ordinary and it was filled with a sense of majesty.
When Xiao Yang got off the carriage, he remembered the time when Wu Shan helped her out of the carriage. The warmth on Wu Shan's hands allowed her to feel at ease, something he had never felt before.
"Xiao Yang, what nonsense are you thinking about? That person is the eldest son of the General Wei Yuan and the cousin of the Thirteenth Princess. Xiao Yang felt ashamed of having such thoughts. She and Wu Shan were destined to be people of two different worlds.
The butler of the Wei Yuan Residence recognized Xiao Yang, but he waited for a long time but still did not see him get down from the horse carriage.
"Miss Xiao Yang, Thirteenth Princess did not come today?"
Xiao Yang had yet to tell the butler the reason why she was here today. Only when the butler asked her about this matter, did she realize that the butler had been waiting for Duan Yunfei to get off the carriage the entire time.
Yes, today the princess sent me to invite Young Master Wu Shan to the palace, I'll have to trouble you to go in and inform him.
Since Duan Yunfei had sent someone to personally invite him into the palace, then Duan Yunfei definitely had something to do. The butler did not dare delay any longer and immediately ran into the residence.
Very quickly, Wu Shan followed the butler out.
Xiao Yang had clearly only met Wu Shan yesterday, but he felt that Wu Shan had matured a little after just one night. It was probably because of the feelings in her heart.
"Young Master Wu Shan." Xiao Yang bowed towards Wu Shan.
"Xiao Yang, the butler said that Yun Fei sent you to find me to enter the palace? Is Yunfei in trouble? "
Xiao Yang snickered in his heart, "Young Master Wu Shan, the princess did encounter some good fortune, and not some trouble."
But this was merely Xiao Yang's internal activities. For such an important matter, Xiao Yang had to let Duan Yunfei personally tell him.
"Xiao Yang also doesn't know why the princess is looking for you. It's just that the princess seems to be in a hurry."
In the end, Xiao Yang still betrayed her, and lying to Wu Shan was not Xiao Yang's intention, but Xiao Yang had also received inspiration from Duan Yunfei teasing her last night, since it was supposed to announce the marriage, then why not make it more dramatic?
"Then let's hurry up and leave."
Wu Shan was worried about Duan Yunfei and was about to enter the palace.
"Young master Wu Shan, don't be anxious, the princess has invited the Miss Zuo Yuan to the palace too. Young master, can you follow Xiao Yang to the Residence of Zuo?"
Wu Shan was unable to guess what Duan Yunfei was planning to do, but no matter what, Wu Shan would support Duan Yunfei.
"Alright. You get on the carriage first, I have some things to tell the butler. "
After watching Xiao Yang get on the carriage, Wu Shan said to the butler, "When Mother is awake, tell Mother that I have entered the palace, so she does not need to worry. Today, I might come back a little later, so Father and Mother won't have to wait for me to come back for dinner. "
"This old servant understands."
After hearing the butler's reply, Wu Shan got into the carriage.
The carriage was not big, so Xiao Yang and Wu Shan sat facing each other, not saying a word. The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Xiao Yang, how have you been recently?"
Wu Shan wanted to ease the atmosphere, but he forgot that he had clearly seen Xiao Yang yesterday, which made the atmosphere even weirder.
"I'll have to trouble young master Wu Shan to think about it. Xiao Yang is fine." Although Xiao Yang calmly replied, he still felt it was strange. Didn't they just meet yesterday, why would Wu Shan ask her if she was safe and sound recently?
"Then... "That's good."
Wu Shan knew that he had a dumb mouth, and was so nervous that he said the wrong things in front of Xiao Yang.
Luckily, they soon arrived at the gate of the House of Zuo.
After the butler of the Zuo Xiang Fu heard what Xiao Yang had said, he immediately went in to get Zuo Yuan.
Zuo Yuanyuan also asked Duan Yunfei why he invited her to the palace as well. Xiao Yang merely repeated what he had said to Wu Shan.
Just like that, the three of them headed in the direction of the palace.
