Zhenyuan Palace

After Qi Congyuan returned, he and Qi Zhen re-entered the study and discussed the cooperation with the eldest prince. Although the process was a bit difficult, the result was good, and Qi Zhen agreed to cooperate with the eldest prince.

Of course, this is only in a superficial sense. It is safer to keep deeper information in your own hands.

"So, when did you become so familiar with Miss Lian San?" Just when they had finished discussing everything and Qi Congyuan was about to leave, Qi Zhen stopped him.

"Um... this..." Qi Congyuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "How should I put it?"

"To make a long story short," Qi Zhen said, "I'm just asking how far you've progressed."

"Ah?" Qi Congyuan was stunned.

"Don't act crazy or stupid." Qi Zhen sneered, "I've been through that period too. Don't think I didn't notice the expression in your eyes every time you faced that Third Miss. I've seen your father so many times, you can't hide it from me."

"We just expressed our feelings to each other." Since Qi Zhen had exposed it, Qi Congyuan no longer hid it. "Father, you... shouldn't break us up, right?"

"Am I such an unreasonable person in your eyes?" Qi Zhen looked at Qi Congyuan, "You little brat, why do you think about your father and me every day?"

"Isn't that so?" Qi Congyuan muttered softly, "I wonder who told me to have less contact with people in Kyoto."

"What are you mumbling about?"

"Nothing." Qi Congyuan responded hastily, "So, father, have you agreed that we can be together?"

"Will my promise be of any use?" Anyway, the situation has come to this point, so he doesn't care what the children do. However, "Hey, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but it's taken you so long to express your feelings to each other. What are you doing? When I was pursuing your mother back then, it was easy to get her in one go!"

"Didn't you tell Xiaolu earlier to watch me limit my interactions with people in the Prime Minister's Residence?" Qi Congyuan silently retorted. "Why are you complaining about my slowness now? And I heard it from Uncle Yuan and the others. You made so many jokes when you were pursuing my mother, but how come you say it's so easy?"

"It's Old Yuan and the others again!" Qi Zhen didn't expect to be slapped in the face just as he finished speaking. However, "Then tell me, did I finally catch up with your mother?"

"Anyway, it's not as simple as you say."

"Hey, brat, you... Never mind. I won't bother with you. You're just shameless! You'll never go wrong if you listen to your father."

"That's clearly three words."

"What did you say?"

"Nothing!" Qi Congyuan stood up hurriedly. "Father, I remembered I have something else to do. I'll leave now."

Qiuyue Pavilion

"Your Highness, are we really going up like this?" Ye Yu stopped Chen Xin who was about to go upstairs. "What if it's a trap? Your Highness, why don't we go back?"

"No problem." Chen Xin patted Ye Yan's shoulder, "I trust Miss Lian San."

"But……"

"Crown Prince, Xiaoqing is already waiting for you upstairs." Just when Ye Yan was about to say something, a voice suddenly appeared and interrupted him.

"You are..." Chen Xin was very familiar with the person who suddenly appeared in front of him. It seemed to be... Lian Miyue's husband, the playboy of the Luo family.

However, why is the person in front of me a little different from the one I met before?

"Xiao Qing said that except for the eldest prince, everyone else should wait outside." Luo Lingyan stopped Ye Xian who wanted to go up with him, "Don't worry, there's no one else here, it's safe."

Seeing Ye Yan was about to say something, Luo Lingyan spoke first and interrupted him.

"Grand Prince, please."

Qiuyue Pavilion Top Floor

[Host, I just sneaked over to the palace to take a look.] 037 was chatting with Su Ruanluo. [But with the dragon energy obscuring it, I couldn't detect anything. Host, isn't Xiaoqi really useless? He can't help you at all...]

"It's okay, Xiaoqi is already great." Su Ruanluo comforted the depressed 037, "Didn't Xiaoqi help me a lot before? Who said Xiaoqi is useless! Xiaoqi is very useful. In my heart, Xiaoqi is the best!"

[Really, host?] Hearing Su Ruanluo's words, 037 instantly returned to normal, [Host, is Xiaoqi really the best in your heart?]

"of course."

"Knock knock knock... Xiaoqing, the eldest prince is here." Luo Lingyan's voice sounded outside.

"Squeak." Su Ruanluo walked to the door and opened it. "Grand Prince."

"Then Xiaoqing, you guys chat, I'll keep watch outside for you." Luo Lingyan was very self-conscious.

"Thank you, brother-in-law."

In the room

"What exactly does Miss Lian San mean by calling me here?" Chen Xin got straight to the point the moment he entered. "And what about the word 'cooperation' on the note?"

"Crown Prince, why don't you sit down and have a glass of water first before discussing business?" Su Ruanluo poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chen Xin.

"Lian Qing, I'm in a hurry and don't want to waste time here." Chen Xin didn't take the tea from Su Ruanluo's hand. "If you have something to say, please tell me now! If you don't, I don't mind leaving directly."

"Are you sure?" Seeing that Chen Xin didn't answer, Su Ruanluo didn't give in and just turned around and started drinking. "Regarding the matters concerning the General's Mansion, the Queen, and the Seventh Princess, are you sure you want to leave?"

"What do you know?!" Hearing the familiar words, Chen Xin suddenly looked at Su Ruanluo, "You..."

"I told you to sit down and talk slowly." Su Ruanluo still looked calm and collected. "Prince, would you like a drink?"

"Alright? Can you tell me now?" Chen Xin sat down and drank the tea from Su Ruanluo's hand in one gulp. "What do you know?"

"No hurry, wait for one more person."

"Still waiting..."

"Sorry, I'm late."

At the window, a figure suddenly appeared.

"Why are you climbing through the window instead of going through the main gate?" Su Ruanluo walked to the window helplessly and opened it to let the person outside in. "It's so high, aren't you afraid of falling?"

"I am still very confident in my martial arts ability." Qi Congyuan rubbed the tip of his nose and sat down next to Su Ruanluo. "Besides, I want to see you as soon as possible."

"you……"

Looking at the scene in front of him, Chen Xin had a feeling that he shouldn't be here.

Besides, when did these two people become so familiar with each other?

Why didn't he know?

Does the emperor know?

"Now that everyone is here, let's get down to business." Su Ruanluo looked at the eldest prince, a look in her eyes that Chen Xin couldn't understand. "Want to cooperate, eldest prince?"
