"Fuqiu, have someone take all the rouge that Princess Roujia sent from the warehouse."

Yu Guiwan hurried into the palace and gave an order.

She sat in the front hall waiting, and soon a servant came out carrying a wooden box.

When she opened the wooden box, there was still a faint pink color left on the edge. She had checked it last time, and now there was not much left.

Yu Guiwan squatted down and carefully identified the smell.

"What are you doing? Is there something wrong with these things?"

Xie Sui heard in the backyard that Yu Guiwan had all the rouge in the warehouse taken out as soon as he returned home, so he went to the front to take a look.

When Yu Guiwan heard Xie Sui's voice, he stood up and expressed his doubts: "I suspect that the person behind the danger I encountered last time might be related to Ming Yu Zhai." There was nothing to hide about this matter. Yu Guiwan knew that Xie Sui had also asked people to look for him, but no useful clues were found.

If it weren't for the rouge sent by the eldest princess, she would not have found this clue.

When Xie Sui mentioned this, a dark color covered his eyes. "Ming Yu Zhai."

"Bei Chu, send someone to investigate Ming Yu Zhai's background." He immediately ordered Bei Chu beside him.

"Do you remember anything else?" Xie Sui looked at Yu Guiwan, his expression relaxed, and his tone softened.

She shook her head.

"I was drugged at the time, but the smell was a little special, so it left a deep impression on me."

Fortunately, you are okay.

Xie Sui said silently.

He still feels scared when he thinks about what happened last time.

Xie Sui continued, "I have to go to the palace tomorrow night. Xie Xiao is back, so I specially organized a family dinner."

Speaking of this, Yu Guiwan raised his eyebrows, with a hint of pride in his eyes: "Okay, I guess he should want to see me too."

When the medicine works together, no one can remove it except the master himself.

"Hmm?" Xie Sui asked curiously.

Yu Guiwan looked at the people around her. After all, it was not appropriate to say it out loud in public, so she took a few steps towards Xie Sui. Just as she was about to step on top of him, Xie Sui took the initiative to bend down towards her.

The servants standing in the hall didn't dare to raise their heads, for fear of seeing something they shouldn't see.

"I gave him inhumane drugs."

After hearing what Yu Guiwan said, he let out a muffled laugh.

Yu Guiwan stared at the corners of his slightly curved mouth, unable to look away.

Xie Sui laughed, it was so unfair.

"In that case, why don't we give him another big gift." He leaned close to Yu Guiwan's ear, raised his eyebrows slightly, and spoke in a casual voice.

"What gift?" She raised her eyebrows.

Yu Guiwan looked up and met Xie Sui's gentle and affectionate eyes. She quickly looked away, fearing that she would fall into Xie Sui's eyes.

At this moment, the two of them looked like a loving couple in front of the servants.

The next day, Yu Guiwan and Xie Sui changed their clothes and prepared to enter the palace. The weather in April was neither too cold nor too hot, so they didn't need to wear cloaks.

Yu Guiwan looked at Xie Sui wearing a dark purple brocade robe, and she subconsciously felt that he was wearing too little.

She said inexplicably, "Your Highness, although the weather is getting warmer, you still need to bring your cloak."

Although Xie Sui's health has improved and there is a possibility of recovery, he still can't be too reckless.

"Bei Chu forgot to take it." Xie Sui found an excuse to shift the blame.

Bei Chu, who was following behind Xie Sui, looked wronged but could not speak.

How could he not remember such a thing? It was clearly the prince himself who said that there was no need to wear a cloak.

Yu Guiwan naturally didn't believe it. How could Bei Chu make such a small mistake after following Xie Sui for so many years? However, she did not expose Xie Sui.

After getting their cloaks back, the two of them got into the carriage.

As soon as she got on the carriage, Yu Guiwan set her eyes on Xie Sui. "What was the great gift that Your Highness mentioned yesterday? It's time for you to tell me now, right?" She looked at Xie Sui with curiosity.

Being stared at by a pair of bright eyes, Xie Sui's Adam's apple rolled. He kept it a secret, "You'll know soon."

After Xie Sui said this, Yu Guiwan became more curious.

On the way to the palace, she felt itchy.

……

As soon as the two of them got off the carriage, they ran into Xie Yunqi and Fu Yan. Xie Sui spoke first, "My nephew, it's been a long time since we last met. It seems you've had a good month."

Xie Yunqi bowed to him, a forced smile on his face, "Thank you for your concern, uncle."

"From now on, my nephew must remember this." Xie Sui warned in a low voice, then took Yu Guiwan past the two of them and walked into the hall.

Xie Sui saw that Princess Roujia was also there today, so he brought Yu Guiwan to her.

"Shi Yu has met the Imperial Sister. Last time I received the good things from the Imperial Sister, I never had the chance to thank her."

Xie Sui bowed, and Yu Guiwan followed suit, "Guiwan greets the Imperial Sister."

"We're all family, there's no need to say thank you." Xie Rou said coquettishly, then turned her gaze to Yu Guiwan and said happily, "Do you like those rouges? If you like them, just tell me."

"Thank you, sister. I really like rouge. I'm afraid I won't be able to use up all the rouge in my lifetime."

"As long as you like it, don't be polite with me." Xie Rou said generously.

The three of them were chatting when they heard someone singing outside the door:

"The King of Freedom has arrived—"

Xie Xiao was wearing a plain long gown today and holding a folding fan in his hand. His simple attire was out of tune with the people present.

After he walked in, everyone's eyes fell on Xie Xiao, and everyone looked at him with sighs.

Unexpectedly, this King Xiaoyao is so young—

It cannot be humane.

You have to know that at his age, he is still childless. He has never remarried since the death of Princess Xiaoyao. I didn't expect that he would have this problem now. It's really sad.

Xie Xiao walked towards Yu Guiwan and the others.

"Shi Yu, are you feeling better?" Xie Xiao asked.

"Thank you for your concern, my royal brother. It's not a big problem anymore." Xie Sui said casually.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Xie Xiao patted Xie Sui on the shoulder and spoke with a smile, looking like a good brother.

Then, Xie Xiao looked at Yu Guiwan who was standing next to Xie Sui, "This is my sister-in-law, right? This is the first time we meet, right? I don't have anything good to give you, so please don't despise me."

As he spoke, the person next to Xie Xiao handed over a wooden box, which contained a fine jade bracelet that was obviously worth a lot of money.

Yu Guiwan was just hesitating whether to accept it when she heard Xie Sui's voice, "Since it's the emperor's wish, we shouldn't refuse."

"Thank you very much, my Royal Brother."

Yu Guiwan leaned forward slightly, and Fuqiu stepped forward to take the things.

Fu Yan, who was standing not far away, saw this scene and stared at the fine jade bracelet, feeling very unbalanced.
