A cool breeze blows on the Lancang River, stirring up the blue waves. The river water is clear and clean, like a mirror made of jade.

After the light rain, the sky was clear and the reflections of the various restaurants standing on both sides of the river were reflected on the surface of the river, with light and shadow complementing each other.

"Your Highness, please go first."

Liang Chongyue didn't bother to be polite with Li Yu'an and got on the boat first.

As soon as I entered, I was attracted by the exquisite carvings inside the boat.

The hollow design allows you to see the blue sky when you look up, and the clear blue river water when you look down.

The management of the Lancang River has always been of great importance to the government. The water in the river is so clear that you can even see the small fish playing at the bottom.

"This princess hasn't been on a river boat for a long time. The design of this boat is quite unique. Wangjiang Tower is also thoughtful."

Li Yu'an's eyes curved, and suddenly there were ripples in them, which were more eye-catching than the river water.

"To receive a word of praise from His Highness is worth it, no matter how complicated and tedious the work is."

Liang Chongyue turned around to look at Li Yu'an, and saw him smiling with his head down. His long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, leaving a shadow on his face.

When I looked up again, Li Yu'an looked like an innocent child who was praised, and his pretty little face was full of pride.

Seeing him like this, what else does Liang Chongyue not understand?

Looking back and carefully observing this exquisite hollow carving technique, it is not just the common flowers and rich patterns.

Liang Chongyue stretched out his hand and touched the hollow space. From a distance, the empty space looked like a puppy chasing butterflies.

Liang Chongyue suddenly thought of the little stupid dog in the system.

The wind suddenly blew on the river, and a large white cloud blew over from the horizon. Her perspective was just right to see the white cloud through the hollow space.

Under the blue sky, the bright contrasting colors make the carved puppy look even more cute and lively.

"Well done, this princess likes it."

Liang Chongyue never hesitates to give praise, and Li Yu'an's ingenuity this time is indeed interesting.

Seeing that His Highness liked the painting, Li Yu'an said nothing and waited quietly to the side to admire the painting of the beauty.

Seeing her as lively and cute as she was when she was a child, Li Yuan's smile never faded, and the happiness in his eyes almost drowned the boat.

There was a lively atmosphere of conversation and laughter on the Lancang River. Liang Chongyue had gradually learned to separate her career from her life over the years, and not let trivial matters in the court disturb her current interest.

Li Yu'an seemed to have forgotten about her illness and did not mention it at all.

The days are long in summer, and after it rains, the coolness doesn’t last long before it becomes hot and humid again.

Just now, Liang Chongyue was already on the boat, listening to Li Yu'an's account of what happened at the palace banquet last night.

As expected of a literary giant, his storytelling is more engaging than others.

"The whereabouts of the Second Prince of Dai Viet are unknown. Your Highness must be careful when you go out. This man is extremely barbaric and has evil intentions towards you. Your Highness must be careful and vigilant."

Liang Chongyue thanked Li Yu'an with a faint smile, then lowered her eyes as if admiring a pool of river water. Only she knew that she was thinking that if her scumbag father had not discovered the body of the second prince, it would have been soaked and floated by now.

There are many fish in the artificial lake of the Imperial Garden. I don’t know if they will eat human flesh since they are fed every day.

"Thank you for your concern, Grand Tutor Li. The guards around this princess are quite skilled and should be more than capable of dealing with the Second Prince of Da Yue."

Li Yu'an still didn't know what happened after the palace banquet last night. The second prince of Dai Viet was indeed very rude. Fortunately, His Highness claimed to be ill and did not attend the palace banquet.

Otherwise, given His Highness's temper, he would probably vomit out all the leftover food he had the night before.

"Let's go, we're getting to the shore."

Once the cool feeling wore off, the air became stuffy and the river surface wasn't much better, not to mention that the boat was long and narrow. Apart from the boatmen standing at both ends, the space in the middle would have been too crowded if there were more people.

Just like when he came up, Liang Chongyue reached the shore first with the help of Jing Suiyang. The first thing he did after Li Yu'an got ashore was to say goodbye to him.

"Your story today was good, but unfortunately, I am weak and need to go back to take medicine. Let's stop here for today."

Liang Chongyue spoke in a gentle tone, coughing from time to time. She looked directly at Li Yu'an while speaking. No matter how many excuses Li Yu'an had, he could not say a single word of no.

"Okay, then I'll escort Your Highness."

Li Yu'an followed behind His Highness like a flower protector, until he sent His Highness to the carriage, and then he stood there, staring at the carriage in a daze.

The window of the private room No. 1 upstairs was opened. Xiang Huayang supported his waist with one hand and leaned on the window with the other hand, looking down at Li Yu'an's back with a look of scrutiny.

"He looks like a pretty boy, and a sickly child. He sticks to Chongyue every day like this, and the emperor doesn't care about him. I don't know how he can be a father."

Li Yu'an noticed that a pair of unfriendly eyes had been staring at the prince since he left. He turned around suddenly to catch the other party off guard, but apart from a few open windows, he didn't see a single figure.

Xiang Huayang leaned against the window. This was his blind spot. Unless Li Yuan was at the same height as him, he would definitely not be able to see him.

Ever since Li Yu'an's health deteriorated, he has practiced observing everything for so many years that it is impossible for him to be wrong.

Li Yu'an's gaze lingered on the open windows for a moment, and finally fell on the window of the No. 1 private room where His Highness had stayed before.

Unlike other places, the angle of this window is smaller than others. It doesn't seem like it is opened to enjoy the view, but more like a small window deliberately opened to peek at him.

Li Yu'an stood there, staring at the open window. After a while, when he saw that there was no one there, he began to look away.

"Master, where are we going now?"

Cheng Zhao suddenly appeared behind Li Yu'an. Li Yu'an was still wondering who was in the Emperor's No. 1 private room.

That gaze was sharp, and few people could reach that level without the baptism of years.

If he is really a young man, he must be a military general and have made great achievements on the battlefield with real swords and guns.

Cheng Zhao followed the Grand Tutor's gaze and soon discovered something was wrong.

"Grandmaster, would you like me to go and take a look?"

Cheng Zhao's eyes were as bright as torches, staring at the open window.

As long as the Grand Tutor gives the order, he will fly up and capture the person alive.

"No problem, go back."

His Highness invited us to Wangjiang Tower twice. This place might still be His Highness's property, but a big tree attracts the wind, and His Highness did not want to show off too much, so he did not reveal it.

If he allowed Chengzhao to arrest people, the matter would become a big deal and would inevitably damage the reputation of Wangjiang Tower.

Cheng Zhao seemed to have not expected that the Grand Tutor would actually let this person go, but he was just a guard and had no right to make decisions.

Cheng Zhao took the reins from the servant, and after the Grand Tutor sat firmly, he did not forget to glance at the open window as he drove away.

After everyone had left, Xiang Huayang showed his face from behind the window. Looking at the carriage going away, Xiang Huayang snorted coldly and sneered. A strong interest welled up in his eyes, which had been indifferent in the past.
