A crown princess who doesn't do infrastructure construction isn't a good doctor.

After leaving the Chu residence, Qin Suiyou saw that Beitang Yan was still puffing out his cheeks and looking indignant, so he asked, "Is your hand injured?"

When Qin Suiyou heard Chu Wei's rude remarks, he briefly stopped Beitang Yan, who was about to lash out, but then told him not to go too far before letting him go.

So Beitang Yan shook his head and said, "No, I listened to you and didn't hit too hard, so I wouldn't get hurt."

"Since you've already hit someone and aren't injured yourself, what are you still angry about?"

Beitang Yan turned to stare at Qin Suiyou and said resentfully, "But you still gave him medicine to treat him."

Seeing that Beitang Yan had finally shown something that a "five-year-old child" wouldn't have considered, Qin Suiyou felt inexplicably gratified for himself.

So he explained again, "I did it to avoid trouble. Even if the Grand Secretary doesn't hold it against me because of the kindness I showed him by treating his illness, judging from Chu Wei's personality today, if we don't deal with it, he will definitely cause trouble everywhere afterward. If he can't find us, then besides the Grand Secretary, he can only cause trouble for Miss Chu. In that case, he'll have to go to Prince An's mansion."

It's unclear how much he actually listened to, but Beitang Yan's expression seemed a bit calmer. However, he quickly changed his mind and raised his hand in front of Qin Suiyou.

"Although you're not injured, you've gotten dirty. Blow on it for me."

Qin Suiyou raised an eyebrow, his eyes filled with inquiry as he asked, "Where did you learn all this?"

Beitang Yan extended his hand towards Qin Suiyou again and said matter-of-factly, "No, but we're a married couple, I can't ask a stranger for help."

Seeing that Beitang Yan's large hand didn't even turn red, Qin Suiyou patted it lightly.

"A whole bunch of fallacies."

After saying that, he symbolically blew a breath on Beitang Yan's hand.

"How about this, you can..."

When Qin Suiyou looked up, he saw Beitang Yan staring at him blankly with a dazed expression. After shaking his head and flicking him on the forehead, Qin Suiyou shoved his still-raised hand back into place.

"Hurry up and change your clothes."

Instead of returning to the Prince An's Mansion with Chu Yuning, the two boarded a small carriage driven by Chen Xiaodong halfway there. Qin Suiyou thought that since they were already out, they couldn't just go back like that, so they decided to go to Zhao's Woodware Shop.

The two changed out of their servants' clothes. Qin Suiyou quickly changed and noticed that Beitang Yan was already dressed, but he was holding a belt and looking at it for a long time without fastening it.

What are you standing there for?

Beitang Yan handed the belt to Qin Suiyou, saying innocently, "This belt needs to be tied at the back, I can't do it right."

Seeing that they were almost there, Qin Suiyou wanted to get it done quickly, so he took the belt over.

"Turn around."

Beitang Yan readily agreed and even consciously raised his hand to make room for his waist.

Encircling Beitang Yan's slender waist, Qin Suiyou used both hands to hold the two ends of the belt and skillfully tied a neat and secure knot with the tie. While tying the knot, he suddenly thought of something.

"You don't like getting too close to others. You even try to avoid Gao Yu when she helps you with your clothes. How did you tie your belt by yourself before?"

Beitang Yan shook his head confidently and said, "I don't remember."

"They certainly know how to make excuses."

"It's true, don't you believe me?"

"Of course I believe, how could I not believe?"

"I'm starting to doubt that you believe me."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

"..."

"Masakazu, we've arrived."

Upon hearing Chen Xiaodong's voice, the two, who had been having childish conversations the whole way, finally stopped.

"Lanfeng told me the other day that you were a good driver, and after experiencing it today, I can confirm it is true. You are very capable."

Chen Xiaodong, a naive young man, was quite embarrassed when praised by such a beautiful woman, and for a moment he didn't know where to look.

"Thank you for your praise, Zhengjun."

The three then walked into the woodworking shop. As always, there was no one at the entrance. Without Chen Xiaodong's prompting, Qin Suiyou went straight to the backyard. Chen Xiaodong looked at Beitang Yan, who was following Qin Suiyou, and was a little puzzled. He didn't seem to have seen this person in the Prince's Mansion before.

The sight of the pure, clear sky inexplicably sent a shiver down Chen Xiaodong's spine. He quickly lowered his eyes, not daring to look any longer, then ignored the vague unease and followed.

In the backyard, Lawson came alone today and was working with Master Zhao and others. He was asking Master Zhao for advice, and Master Zhao's other apprentices were listening in. Zhao Kun, who was still whittling a wooden board, was about to change tools to sweep away the sawdust on the table when he first saw Qin Suiyou and the others.

Subconsciously assuming Qin Suiyou was there to buy wood products, Zhao Kun said, "Sir, would you like to buy ready-made or custom-made? The ready-made samples are in the outer room, but if you want to make a custom order, our shop currently has a large order and cannot accept any new orders at the moment."

Before Qin Suiyou could speak, Chen Xiaodong, who had been deliberately hiding in the back, jumped out.

"Brother Zhao!"

Zhao Kun wasn't frightened, but he was somewhat surprised.

"Xiao Dong? You're here to see Lawson?"

Chen Xiaodong shook his head, raised his hand to signal Zhao Kun to look at Qin Suiyou, and then said, "I brought a distinguished guest with me. He is the heir apparent of our Prince An's Mansion."

Before Zhao Kun could react, Luo Sen, with his sharp ears, heard the word "Zhengjun" (正君). He looked up and saw that it really was Qin Suiyou. He immediately told Master Zhao and ran over.

When Lawson ran up to Qin Suiyou, he immediately saw Beitang Yan, whose face was still disguised. But looking at his figure and his position next to Qin Suiyou, he knew who it was.

After that, Lawson ignored everything else and first greeted Qin Suiyou.

"Your Majesty!"

Qin Suiyou smiled and nodded in response. At this moment, Master Zhao and his group put down what they were holding and came over. Knowing Qin Suiyou's identity, it would be a lie to say they weren't terrified. Zhao Kun also realized what was happening, and the group immediately prepared to kneel down.

"Wait a minute, everyone, there's no need for such formalities. I'm just here to take a look. You can all go about your business. My bookstore is waiting for your supplies."

The group did not kneel down again, but they still bowed.

Then Master Zhao said to Zhao Kun, "You shall entertain His Highness the Emperor."

Upon hearing this, Lawson said to Master Zhao, "Master Zhao, I am familiar with the woodworking business, so I will take care of it."

"But His Highness has come to the woodworking shop, how can we let you..."

At this moment, Qin Suiyou spoke up: "Just let Lawson talk to me. If you are too polite, I'm afraid he will be sad."

At the opportune moment, Lawson acted as if he was being excluded and felt sad. When Master Zhao saw this, he was afraid that Lawson would really think that he was rejecting him, so he was too embarrassed to say anything more. He comforted Lawson a few times, saying that he did not mean to distance himself from him, and then called his apprentices back to their respective positions to work.
