Zuo Yuan's mother, Lady Zuo, was born in Wu Dun, a small town in the south of the Yangtze River. Influenced by the Lady Zuo, Zuo Yuan had always yearned for the good scenery of Jiangnan.

Ever since Lady Zuo had broken off her connection with her home, she never returned to Dark Dun. Lady Zuo missed her hometown, so she would often talk to Zuo Yuan about the things that happened at Dark Dun when she was young.

Thus, Zuo Yuan suggested going to Wu Dun to play, which Duan Yunfei and Wu Shan agreed to.

Duan Yunfei comforted her, "What's wrong with that? We'll go again next summer." And then she thought about the discussion, "I just don't know if I'll have a chance to go with you at that time."

Zuo Chong saw that Duan Yunfei had said these dejected words, and knew that she must be thinking about what if she married a woman next year, she would not be as free as she was now.

The group became quiet again, but Duan Yunfei was the first one to snap out of it. "Don't even think about it. We are here just to get out of the palace and relax. We have to be happy."

Wu Shan purposely changed the topic, "Oh right, Zuo Yuanyuan, you have already informed Xiu Huang, right?"

"Of course, you don't need to worry about my affairs, it's not like I'm like you." Zuo Yuanyuan was truly hurting Wu Shan all the time, and it was also because they grew up together and were close enough to each other that they could joke around with each other.

"That's impossible, that's Xiu Huang after all. If it was anyone else, you wouldn't be in such a hurry to notify them. Little Thirteen, was what you said right? " Everyone said that the nearer the red, the nearer the black. Just because he had been injured by his left preceptor since he was young, Wu Shan's ability to harm people became more and more apparent.

Zuo Chong saw that she could not win against Wu Shan this time, so she simply ignored him and continued drinking her tea.

After everyone had their meal, they rested for a while. When the afternoon was about to arrive, they went out and waited for Xiu Huang.

While they were chatting and laughing, Xiu Huang arrived at the Red Luan Palace at a leisurely pace.

"Greetings to Thirteenth Princess. Greetings, Sir Wu Shan, Miss Zuo Yuan. "

In fact, Duan Yunfei and the others had long said that they didn't need any luggage when meeting each other, but Xiu Huang was extremely courteous, and because of his status as the proton, he was never exempt from this kind of etiquette.

Duan Yunfei felt awkward, but she knew that Xiu Huang would not change his mind, so she did not speak anymore.

Zuo Yuan looked at Xiu Huang's package and shouted, You're only bringing these things? "We're going for more than ten days, aren't you a little short on luggage?"

Wu Shan could understand, but they did not have much personal belongings. After all, they could leave the house after taking their clothes with them, unlike the girls, who wore clothes with rouge and powdered water, and had all sorts of jewelry.

"My apologies to Lady Zuo, Xiu Huang indeed only has that much luggage."

Just then, Xiao Yang took out Duan Yunfei's bag. Zuo Yuan was shocked once again, it was one thing for Xiu Huang's luggage to be so little, but Duan Yunfei's bag was actually so little.

"Xiao Yang, did you leave something behind? It's too little."

Xiao Yang replied Zuo Yuan in embarrassment, "This servant did not help the princess pack these things. But the princess was the one who picked them up later, that's all."

"Little Thirteen, you only brought these kind of things?"

"Yeah, but it's only been a few days since we left the palace. Besides, we're out for a tour of the palace, not to fight in the battlefield. Why bring along so many things? We'll just follow the rules."

It must be known that even if she went out for three or four days, she would still bring more than that stuff. How could she bring bags of things with her this time, it seemed that she would have to simplify her luggage this time, so that Xiu Huang would not think that she was a troublesome young miss.

"Alright, since everyone is here, let's leave the palace now. After a while, Wu Shan will bring Xiu Huang back to the Wu Mansion, while you and Xiao Yang will follow me back to the Zuo Mansion. Wu Shan and I will pack up our things, everyone should get some rest tonight." Tomorrow, we'll gather at the palace gate. How about it? "

Everyone agreed with Zuo Yuanyuan's idea and went off to their own places.

"Young Master Wu Shan, I heard that you suggested for me to follow you out of the palace? I wonder why? "

Although Wu Shan was straightforward, he still thought deeply about it. If Zuo Yuan knew that he had betrayed her, Wu Shan's days would not be peaceful today.

From today onwards, I will call you Xiu Huang and you can just call me Wu Shan. We are of similar age, there is no need to be so particular, and you do not need to worry about people criticizing us. As for proposing this to His Majesty, I feel that it's been three years since you've been to the Jin Country. You stay in the Yusong Institute every day, and don't have anyone to talk to. Since the people who come are guests, we should do our best to please the locals. This time, we are taking Thirteen out to relax, so you might as well take this opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Jin Country. "I know that you love ancient books, but you can look for them in Jiangnan this time, don't you think so?"

Wu Shan was a smart person, since he had already said this much, he naturally understood what was going on. Wu Shan was tactful, was the one who came here as a guest? Xiu Huang clearly understood his own position in the Jin Country. The reason why Wu Shan took extra care of him was not because of his identity as the second prince of Xiliang, but because of Zuo Yuanyuan.

However, this was indeed a good opportunity. Xiu Huang had read about the southern parts of the Jin Country in his books. He yearned to see a place like this, the Xiliang would never be able to see such a scenery.
