Chu Xiyao didn't want to disturb Ling Yan; she was having such a good time with her friends, and he couldn't bear to ruin that beautiful moment.

But when he turned his head, he saw that Chu Zhan had already walked towards them, so he had no choice but to follow.

When the two arrived, they exchanged greetings.

Chu Zhan's smile was warm and sincere, yet it also retained a touch of youthful unruliness and straightforwardness as he said, "Greetings, ladies. I was just passing by when I was struck by your beauty, and I have taken the liberty of asking if you would do me the honor of having a cup of tea with me?"

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Princess immediately turned cold and said, "You lecherous scoundrel! How dare you be so lustful and offend even this princess!"

Chu Zhan was both surprised and found it reasonable when she revealed her identity.

After all, these women in front of them were clearly extraordinary; it wouldn't be surprising if they were princesses.

So he immediately and earnestly introduced himself, saying, "You are Princess Da Zhao. I am the fourth prince of Western Chu. I came to Da Zhao for a visit and just met the princess and her companions. I only wanted to befriend them because of my love for beauty. I have no other intentions. Please forgive me, Princess."

Upon hearing this, the Ninth Princess stopped pressing him for an answer.

The main point is that both she and the others could tell he wasn't lying.

Because his eyes were clear and pure, full of appreciation and innocence, and he had no filthy or vulgar thoughts.

The Ninth Princess was somewhat displeased because he had invited them so rashly on their first meeting.

Chu Xiyao remained silent the whole time, but occasionally stole glances at Ling Yan with a veiled look.

Lingyan found this quite amusing.

After the two finished speaking, Chu Xiyao said, "Everyone, I apologize for our abruptness. We will take our leave now."

After nodding to the group, he pulled Chu Zhan away.

After they were some distance away from the group, Chu Xiyao spoke up to reprimand him, saying, "Your actions just now were far too hasty."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhan immediately protested his innocence: "What lust? I just think these girls are quite unique, more vibrant and free-spirited than any other women I've met, so I wanted to make friends with them. I had no other intentions."

Chu Xiyao believed him after hearing this and did not pursue the matter further.

Because he knew he was not a frivolous person.

At this moment, Chu Zhan asked curiously, "Ninth Uncle, do you know the most beautiful person among them? Is she also a princess?"

Chu Xiyao knew who he was talking about as soon as he heard it.

He couldn't help but feel a surge of pride.

He remained calm and said, "She is the Princess Consort of Prince Rui."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhan immediately widened his eyes and exclaimed excitedly, "So she is Princess Rui! She truly is the most beautiful woman in the world! So beautiful! And the shops under her name that I've seen these past few days have also broadened my horizons and made me forget all my worries. Princess Rui is so outstanding, how does she compare to your sweetheart, Uncle Jiu?"

Chu Xiyao did not reply upon hearing this.

How is he supposed to answer that?

Are you saying they are the same person?

Seeing that he remained silent, Chu Zhan pleaded, "Uncle Jiu, my dear Uncle Jiu, I didn't hold it against you for drugging me every night to meet my future Aunt Jiu these past few days. What is she hiding that you're doing this to me without letting me know? Just tell me who she is, okay?"

Chu Xiyao remained unmoved.

Hearing this, he changed the subject, saying, "Let's go. Didn't you want to go to Huangjue Temple to try their vegetarian food and meet the legendary Master Jianhui? Do you still want to go?"

After saying that, he strode forward and left.

Chu Zhan realized what was happening and immediately jogged after him, calling out, "Uncle Jiu, wait for me!"

………………

Lingyan and the others were resting in the pavilion.

The servants had already laid out exquisite snacks and hot tea in the pavilion.

After resting for a while, the group admired Xie Zhiyi's painting together.

The painting not only features plum blossoms, but also women even more beautiful than plum blossoms.

Everyone was very happy and enjoyed it very much.

This is also a memorial for them.

As dusk fell and the sun began to set, they found a high place to sit side by side and admire the beautiful scenery of the setting sun casting its last rays on the earth.

Only when the golden light gradually faded did they embark on their journey home, filled with joy and reluctance.

The group hadn't felt this happy and relaxed in a long time.

Therefore, we were all a little reluctant to leave when it was time to go back.

However, they also agreed to get together more often in the future.

This kind of simple, wonderful joy is something we don't usually experience.

Because Chu Xiyao saw Ling Yan being so cheerful and lively during the day, he suggested that they play and joke around together when they were together in the evening.

He was rejected without hesitation by the other three.

Lingyan, on the other hand, didn't seem to care.

Suddenly remembering something, she turned to Chu Xiyao and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being discovered by your nephew if you come out?"

Chu Xiyao laughed and said, "Don't worry, I drugged him. Even if he's on guard now, he can't escape it."

The medicine won't last much longer; he'll be returning to Western Chu soon.

After Chu Xiyao finished speaking, he smiled and suggested another idea.

They blindfolded Lingyan, and the four men kissed and groped her, making her guess who each of them was.

If she guesses wrong, she should be severely punished.

The other three were very excited and delighted after hearing this.

They all wanted to punish her severely.

Lingyan said: Bring it on, she will definitely not be punished.

But she was proven wrong.

Lingyan went berserk.

How could she have guessed none of them correctly?

After all, I've spent so much time with them.

I wouldn't say I know them completely, but I'd say I know at least 70-80% of them.

But she guessed none of them correctly.

This unscientific!
