If he could, he wouldn't want to get on friendly terms with her in a place like that...

Pei Yu touched his forehead, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Ah Jin."

Lu JinNian was satisfied with his smile. Xiao Su raised her head and looked at him deeply. She lowered her eyes, thinking of something.

After they had eaten their fill, Pei Yu and Lu JinNian bade farewell and went back. Lu JinNian patted Xiao Su's shoulder, "Your highness, I will send you home. This time, I will not carry you. We will walk back and eat."

Xiao Su nodded and walked side by side with Lu JinNian. She turned her eyes to the side of her face and suddenly said, "A-Jin."

"What's wrong?"

Xiao Su pursed her lips, "Why do you call him brother Pei Yu?"

"About this, I feel like he's not bad and I'm already familiar with him. Is there a problem?"

"I thought we were familiar with each other now. Why did you call me only 'Your Highness' and not 'my name?'"

Was it because of her character? He was one of the three princes of Liang Jing City who was as humble as jade. No matter what he did, he was very upright. However, even though he looked weak, he was actually black-hearted and evil …

Cough cough. Lu JinNian touched his conscience and decided to swallow the truth and said, "My daughter really doesn't dare to call the prince my brother."

"Liang Jing City..." In the whole of Ming Xuan Country, not many people truly think that I am a prince. "

Xiao Su closed her eyes. Her amber eyes shone with a warm light under the lights of the street lights. However, these lights were very fragile, adding to her sadness. "Jin, call me Su, okay?"

The beauty under the lantern had a slightly hopeful tone. Lu Jinniang indicated that her little heart couldn't bear it any longer. Her breathing became sluggish as she took the opportunity to reply, "Alright."

Who said that only a hero would feel sad for a beauty? Lu Jinsheng wasn't a hero, but he couldn't escape a beauty's trap.

Hearing Lu JinNian agree to call him by name, the great demon king felt his mood lighten up. But before he could even smile, he saw Lu JinNian grab his hand and run away. Xiao Su was surprised, but didn't ask anything.

In the end, just like last time, Lu JinNian brought him to an alleyway with no one around. Without asking for his opinion, he carried him in his arms and flew towards No. 72 of Fengyuan Street.

Xiao Su's face was dark. She had agreed to take a walk back, she wouldn't carry him!

Actually, Lu JinNian was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control it, but he was more worried about this one. Even if it was just a sheep, it wasn't safe to stroll around the streets at night!

At this point, Xiao Su was still unaware of the importance of first impressions in their relationship.

Since he had initially left the impression of a weak little sheep, it was impossible for him to change his mind in a short period of time. Moreover, Lu Jinsheng was both rational and forceful, so even if the beauty scheme worked, its effectiveness and durability was limited.

This time, Lu JinNian landed in the yard and put Xiao Su down. Without looking at his expression, he waved goodbye, "Goodbye, Su."

The great demon king looked at the distant figure and unconsciously snorted. Seeing that she had obediently called out his name, he gave up.

"..."

22 February, morning court.

The Honda Monastery's Su Xing Yuan began. The second prince of the Ruixi Country, Murong Qi, and the third princess, Murong Tan, had already taken up residence outside the imperial palace and were waiting for an audience.

The emperor Xiao Wen Feng's long eyes narrowed slightly. He did not get angry, but instead said in a deep voice, "Proclamation."

Hearing the decree, the eunuch immediately raised his voice and shouted, "Xuan, the emissaries of the RuiXi Country are here to see you."

Mu Rong Qi, who was listening outside, led Murong Tan into the court. However, Mu Rong Qi had covered it up quite well, and the disdain in Murong Tan's eyes was too obvious. The officials watching from the front frowned.

Murong Qi glared at Murong Tan and warned her to restrain herself before bowing slightly, "Greetings to the Emperor of Ming Xuan."

Only then did Murong Tan follow and give a slight bow.

Xiao Wen Feng acted as if he didn't see their perfunctory attitude and said, "You two have come from afar and have a tiring journey. I don't know if you should rest properly?"

He sounded concerned about the two of them, but in fact, he was mocking them for not being able to tell the time of the visit through the paperwork. Not mentioning that they had suddenly come to visit, he had even delayed meeting them for an entire day.

Murong Qi remained unmoved. "My royal sister and I were just passing by to enjoy the river, so we came to visit once or twice. Therefore, we didn't have any official documents. I presume that since Your Majesty is magnanimous, he wouldn't blame us for being young."

Appreciate the scenery along the river? By the way?

The court officials at the side were all infuriated. The distance from the imperial city to Liang Jing was thousands of miles. It would take at least ten days to travel by the river. Two of the imperial family were full, yet they came all the way here to play?

What's more, Murong Qi was 23 years old this year, and Murong Tan was also 16 or 17 years old. Fine, this was very domineering. It was enough to look down on their Ming-Xuan Kingdom.

No matter what the court officials were thinking, Murong Qi continued, "Your Majesty, when my royal sister and I arrived at Liang Jing, we discovered that many ships were besieging the ship. May I ask what is the purpose of this?"

Was he here to denounce him?

Everyone was well aware of what had happened in Linchuan. It was clear that Rache had intentionally crashed into the ship and rampaged through it. Yet, he had preemptively claimed that it was Mingxuan's ships that had surrounded and attacked them, pretending to be the victims.

The corner of Xiao Wen Feng's mouth twitched. He then stepped forward and said, "This subject has his own plans!"

"Yes!"

"Yes, Your Majesty. As for the matter of the boat attacking Prince Rui's princess in Linchuan, this subject has his own song to play. After this matter has occurred, this subject will pay great attention to it and immediately send people to investigate all the ships and people on Linchuan."

"We've tried our best to capture and bring to justice those who are unfavorable to Prince Rui's princess as soon as possible, but we've discovered that no one is suspicious. They're all honest businessmen!"

Cui Yue didn't even look at Murong Qi and Murong Tan's expressions as he spat out the words like a cannonball, "But this subject is a serious and cautious person, especially towards Rui Xi Country's ambassador."

"Therefore, this subject sent people to check on the boats in Richie during the night. They discovered that there was a big hole in the boat, which caused the ship's homing function to be damaged, causing the boats to rampage in Linchuan, causing the princes and princesses who were eager to get ashore to see the illusion that the other boats were trying to encircle them."

"Your Majesty, this was an accident. I presume that the princes and princesses would really like to meet with your majesty to express their friendly feelings towards my Great Clarity Pavilion."

"Arguing is not the way!" Murong Tan hastily denied it.

The Prime Minister Pei Zhihe continued to speak unhurriedly, "Oh, the prince and princess aren't friendly with me, could it be that they have some sort of enmity with me?"

Before he finished speaking, the few martial artists in the center had already exposed their location, and were glaring at Murong Qi and Murong Tan.

Murong Qi quickly grabbed Murong Tan's sleeve, telling her to be a little more calm. Just as he was about to speak, Cui Fu choked and said, "Prince, Princess, could it be that you two made a hole on the boat and purposely rampaged around?"

"This is bad, those injured aristocratic children and merchants who have caused losses have already reported their losses to this official. This official also said that the ships of the Rui Xi Country crashed due to an accident. Later on, they will compensate everyone according to the price."

"There are many merchants who frequent the Ruixi Country. They all say that since it is an accident, they will not pursue the matter as long as it is not a compensation. So … Your Highness, are you two doing this on purpose? "After that, this lowly official will have no choice but to report it to the various noble families and merchant brigades …"
