(The repetition in the previous chapter was because I forgot that the princess had already returned home. I couldn't change it, so I had to change the order.)

Liang Chongyue habitually poured a glass of wine for Chi Rong and placed it next to his own glass.

When raising a toast, don't forget to clink glasses.

Chi Rong had also become accustomed to the fact that Her Royal Highness the Princess loved drinking. After bowing and standing up, he sat down next to Her Royal Highness the Princess and raised his glass to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"How long will it take for news of tonight's events to reach Father?"

"What happened today happened on the Qu'an official road. Many people saw it. Since it concerns the master, the news will reach the palace at the latest by the hour of midnight."

Liang Chongyue squinted his eyes, savoring the aroma of the wine, and spoke slowly:

"Send someone pretending to be someone from Prince Yi's residence to intercept them. They don't have to stop them, as long as they know that Prince Yi doesn't want this to reach their ears."

"Also, check on Prince Yi and this Wu Xian. To be able to raise a son like this, his father must be a cancer in the court. Big brother has made no achievements in the court over the years. This princess has a rich political resume, and this one more thing is not much. It is a good thing to be able to eradicate this cancer for Daxia, so leave it to Big Brother."

Liang Chongyue touched the puppy's head. Ping'an was already waiting outside the door with the chicken cooked by Chef Li.

"I understand, I will resign."

Chi Rong came and went without a trace. Liang Chongyue looked at the place where he disappeared. If someone didn't know, they would think that her Changshengtian was full of plywood and they all walked through the tunnel.

Ping'an put down the roast chicken and walked out. Liang Chongyue curled up in the recliner, enjoying the gentle evening breeze, which brought a faint aroma of wine. He was alone with the beautiful scenery of the lake, feeling very happy.

"Host, this roast chicken is so delicious. If you need this kind of work in the future, please call me. I will follow you in my next life, no, in the next next next next next eight lives."

It might be more comfortable if there wasn't the little pig making a grunting and showing off sound next to me.

The next morning, Liang Chongyue was still asleep when Xiang Jingchuan was already waiting in the main hall with some freshly baked pastries from Yipinjian.

Liang Chongyue drank a little late last night and didn't wake up until 1:15 PM.

"Your Highness, Young Master Jingchuan has arrived and has been waiting for you in the main hall for an hour."

"I know. Let him wait."

Liang Chongyue stretched his limbs, washed up with Yun Ling's help, and played with the puppy for a while before going to the main hall.

In front of a table full of exquisitely prepared breakfast, Liang Chongyue saw Xiang Jingchuan at a glance. The beauty was dressed in white today, and she was very pleasing to the eye. Seeing her made her appetite better.

"I pay my respects to Her Royal Highness the Princess. May Her Royal Highness be well and at peace."

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, cousin. Get up and have a peaceful feast."

Liang Chongyue calmly sat down in the main seat, glanced at the pastries brought by Xiang Jingchuan, and then smiled and introduced Chef Li's craftsmanship to Xiang Jingchuan.

"This chicken wonton soup is my favorite breakfast these days. Would you like to try it, cousin?"

Xiang Jingchuan tasted the chicken soup wontons that Her Royal Highness the Princess said she liked, and they were indeed delicious.

"The chicken soup is rich and the wontons are delicious. No wonder His Highness likes them."

Liang Chongyue just smiled in response and continued eating.

Xiang Jingchuan didn't think there was anything wrong. When he was at home, his mother often told him not to talk while eating or sleeping.

Her Royal Highness the Princess grew up in the palace, so the rules must be even stricter.

It was not until after the meal that Liang Chongyue remembered that she had not yet asked Xiang Jingchuan what he was doing here today.

"Chongyue forgot to ask, cousin came here early in the morning. Is there something important you want to talk to me about?"

When Xiang Jingchuan saw that Her Royal Highness the Princess had stopped eating, he quickly put down his chopsticks and took out the fruit he had just bought this morning from behind him.

"This is a specialty of Yipinjian. I thought Your Highness doesn't leave the palace often and probably doesn't know much about things outside the palace. I asked A Zheng and she said that this place's cherry pancakes are delicious, so I thought of buying some for the princess to try."

Liang Chongyue reached out and took a small piece, and put it into her mouth under Xiang Jingchuan's hopeful gaze.

"Sweet and sour, really good. Chongyue thanks cousin very much."

After breakfast, Xiang Jingchuan knew that Chongyue was being very considerate by having a small taste, so he handed the remaining fruits to Yunling and asked her to keep them.

"No need to thank me. I'm your cousin. You just came of age and moved out of the palace to live on your own. It's only natural that I should take better care of you. The restaurants near this Yipinjian restaurant are all good. I wonder if Your Highness is free today to go and try some with us?"

Xiang Jingchuan looked calm and composed, but where no one could see, his palms beneath his sleeves were practically sweating.

Afraid that Her Royal Highness would think that it was inappropriate for a man and a woman to be alone together, he quickly added:

"If Her Royal Highness goes, I will send someone back to pick up Ah Zheng. She has only just returned to the capital, and she will surely be happy to be with Her Royal Highness."

Liang Chongyue brought herself some tea and rinsed her mouth. She looked at Xiang Jingchuan, who thought he had hidden it well, but was actually so nervous that his lips trembled when he spoke.

She has always been tolerant and caring towards her family, but she knows clearly which men she cannot touch.

If Xiang Jingchuan had not been so proactive today and kept his love to himself, she would not have made a fuss.

"All of you please step back. This princess has something to say to my cousin."

Xiang Jingchuan looked at Her Royal Highness the Princess, who had restrained her smile and looked serious, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

After Yun Ling led his men to clear the table of things, he had tea served before leaving.

Xiang Jingchuan first poured a cup of tea for Her Royal Highness the Princess, and then poured himself a cup of tea.

"Cousin, we are alone here, and I have something I really want to tell you."

Xiang Jingchuan paused holding the teacup, and the tea in the cup almost spilled out.

Xiang Jingchuan put down the teacup in his hand. For some reason, he had vaguely guessed that what Her Royal Highness the Princess was going to tell him must be the thing he least wanted to hear at this moment.

"Your Highness, do you really have to tell me now? Can we have lunch together first?"

Liang Chongyue looked at Xiang Jingchuan, whose eyes were dark and unclear. He was a nobleman who was full of energy yesterday. With such an infuriating handsome face, his eyes lowered, he approached you and whispered to you, which really made people feel soft-hearted.

It’s a pity that Liang Chongyue is not an ordinary person.

She is kind and gentle to women, but that depends on the person.

If you show a little more pity and give a little hope to Xiang Jingchuan, you might as well be afraid that he won't give up.

"Brother, you will always be Chongyue's cousin. Whether Azheng is here or not, we can have dinner together anytime. But there are some things that Chongyue must clarify with you as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings."

Xiang Jingchuan wanted to say something else, but Liang Chongyue spoke first:

"Chongyue already has someone he loves, and he will definitely stay with her for the rest of his life. I hope my cousin can find his soulmate and get married soon. Chongyue has never attended a wedding banquet yet."

Liang Chongyue spoke playfully, and her eyes were full of sincerity when she looked at Xiang Jingchuan, so as not to make him feel too embarrassed.

Xiang Jingchuan was distracted by the princess's smile. He thought that the princess just had no feelings for him, but he didn't expect that she already had someone she loved.

The eyes that had shown some hope just now had completely lost their former luster.

The puppy lay beside the two of them, holding a chicken leg in its mouth. It looked at Xiang Jingchuan's lost look and expressed its confusion. Was the chicken leg not tasty?

Why do both of them want to fall in love?
