In Prince Zhao's mansion, Jin Dou and Song Yujiao were busy cleaning the princess's room when a maid walked in again: "Princess, the prince asked you to go to the front hall and play the piano for the guests."

Princess Xiyue nodded and said to Jindou and Song Yujiao, "You two, follow me."

"Yes, Princess." Jindou and Song Yujiao looked at each other and quickly followed Princess Xiyue.

The three of them arrived in the hall, and after exchanging greetings, Princess Xiyue sat in front of the zither and began to play.

Jindou stood next to Princess Xiyue, thinking in his mind how to pass the note in his sleeve to his second brother.

Wei Qing's eyes were fixed on Jindou as soon as Jindou came in. When King Zhao saw this, he mistakenly thought that Wei Qing was staring at his daughter and felt very proud.

After all, his training of his daughter was not in vain. Now, she has finally caught a handsome son-in-law from the capital.

When Princess Xiyue finished her song, King Zhao laughed heartily and said, "Go sit next to Lord Wei and pour him some tea."

"Yes, father." Princess Xiyue blushed and walked towards Wei Qing. Jindou saw that the opportunity had come, so he hurriedly walked to Wei Qing's side with Song Yujiao.

Without paying attention to Xie Xiaohu staring at him, Jindou took advantage of the fact that the people on King Zhao's side were not paying attention and quietly slipped a small note into Xie Xiaohu's hand.

Here, Princess Xiyue sat shyly next to Wei Qing, her eyes full of affection. She stretched out her slender hands, filled a cup of tea for Wei Qing, and said in a soft voice: "Please drink, Lord Wei."

Wei Qing felt like he was on edge at this moment. Thinking of Jin Dou standing behind him, he was afraid that Jin Dou would get angry and misunderstand him. He moved aside as much as possible, creating a little distance between him and Princess Xiyue, and said, "How can I let the princess pour tea? I'd better let this minister do it myself."

"Hey, Lord Wei, please don't be polite. Lord Wei is young and promising. It is my blessing to be able to serve tea and water to Lord Wei," said King Zhao with a laugh.

Haha, Jindou stood behind and thought to himself, it seems that this prince has taken a liking to the second brother and is planning to make him a son-in-law.

Wei Qing didn't know how he managed to hold on during the banquet. Princess Xiyue beside him was diligently adding tea and wine for him. But when he thought of Jindou standing behind him, Wei Qing felt that it was not good to drink or not to drink. For a moment, he just wanted to stand up and leave immediately.

After the banquet was finally over, as soon as he returned to the room, Xie Xiaohu hurriedly handed the note to Wei Qing.

Wei Qing looked at the scrawled note with a headache. After finally figuring out its meaning, he was so angry that he slammed the note on the table.

These two people really think they are heroes of the martial arts world. They never use their brains to think about it. Even if they can find something in the palace, they will probably be killed by the people in the palace before they can even leave!

"Sir, what...what is written on this?" Xie Xiaohu asked in confusion, looking at the crooked handwriting on the note.

Wei Qing raised his head and briefly explained to him the meaning of the note.

"Then... sir, what should we do now?" Xie Xiaohu asked anxiously. Is it possible that they have to stay in this palace? If they don't leave now, judging by the King of Zhao's intentions, he will probably pack up his daughter and send her to their bed right away.

Wei Qing frowned here and thought to himself that he had to find a way to talk to Jindou and see what her plans were.

In Princess Xiyue's courtyard, Jindou massaged Princess Xiyue's shoulders while saying, "Princess, this gentleman today is a perfect match for you, a perfect match."

"Don't talk nonsense," Princess Xiyue said with a red face.

"Princess, I'm not talking nonsense. You and this gentleman are truly a match made in heaven!" Jindou flattered her until she changed the subject: "But, Princess, this gentleman is about to return to the capital. There are so many beautiful women in the capital. Princess, you must seize the opportunity."

Princess Xiyue was silent for a moment after hearing Jindou's words. Her father had said the same thing to her yesterday, but what should she do?

"Then...what should I do?" Princess Xiyue asked in a low voice.

"Princess, you should use the excuse of serving porridge and tea to appear in front of this gentleman more often," Jindou encouraged.

Song Yujiao, who had been standing nearby, finally understood Jindou's intention and quickly said, "Yes, Princess, now that this gentleman has left, we don't know when he will come back. Don't miss this opportunity."

"This..." Princess Xiyue was a little restless.

"Princess, the prince's birthday banquet will be held in two days. After the birthday banquet, the master will leave." Jindou quickly added fuel to the fire.

Hearing this, Princess Xiyue finally couldn't sit still anymore, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

Wei Qing was just sitting in the room with Xie Xiaohu, his brows furrowed, when he heard someone outside shout, "The princess is here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door opened and Princess Xiyue and Jindou walked in one after another. Jindou was holding a food tray in his hand.

"Sir," Princess Xiyue put her hands aside and bowed.

As soon as Wei Qing came in, he set his eyes on Jindou. He saw Jindou following the princess. After raising his head and meeting his eyes, he blinked hard twice.

Wei Qing couldn't guess what the golden beans meant for a moment, and Princess Xiyue blushed after calling him "Sir", not knowing what to say next.

When Jindou saw this, he had no choice but to say, "Princess, didn't you make tea for the master yourself?"

After hearing this, Princess Xiyue blushed and took the cup of tea from the tray held by Jindou. She handed it to Wei Qing and said, "Sir, this is a cup of tea that I made especially for you. Please enjoy it."

Wei Qing reluctantly took the tea and said to Princess Xiyue, "Princess, please sit down."

After the two sat down, Wei Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip. When he looked up, he saw Jindou looking at him. He hurriedly and panickedly put the teacup on the table.

Jindou stood next to Princess Xiyue, blinking hard at Wei Qing and pointing outside.

What did this mean? Was someone eavesdropping outside, or was he planning to go out and do something? Wei Qing couldn't figure out what Jin Dou was up to.

Well, it's really tiring to not have a telepathic connection! Jindou rubbed his eyeballs that hurt from blinking, thought for a moment, and said to Princess Xiyue: "Princess, the sun is shining outside. Why don't you ask the adults to go out for a walk?"

Princess Xiyue was sitting there, not knowing what to do. Upon hearing this, she immediately stood up and said to Wei Qing, "Sir, let me take you out for a walk."

Wei Qing finally understood what the golden bean meant by pointing outwards, so he stood up and said, "Alright, I just want to enjoy the scenery of the palace."
