Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m fine. Princess Hui An, don’t worry.”
Princess Hui An sniffed her body but did not smell the medicine. She was slightly relieved.
“Weren’t you going to look for medicine? Why were you fighting?”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled helplessly. “I happened to make it.”
Princess Hui An frowned slightly and said, “Don’t go to the border next time. It’s too dangerous.”
At the side, Little Shunzi said, “Princess Hui An was worried about you. She hasn’t slept for a few nights, and she hasn’t had a good appetite. She’s even lost weight.”
Princess Hui An glared at Little Shunzi. “Who asked you to talk too much! If you continue talking nonsense, I’ll pull out your tongue!”
Little Shunzi shrank his neck resentfully.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the thin Princess Hui An and said softly, “Princess, you have to take care of yourself in the capital.”
Princess Hui An said stubbornly, “I took good care of myself. I even gained weight. As for you, you look much thinner.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and didn’t continue the topic. “I didn’t have time to write to you this time. Please forgive me, Princess.”
Princess Hui An said proudly, “Of course you won’t have time to write letters since you went to war. I’m not such an unreasonable person.” Su Xiaoxiao took out a small box. “This is for Princess Hui An.”
“What?” Princess Hui An asked.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “The snow lotus I picked when I went to Heavenly Mountain to look for medicine. This is a real Heavenly Mountain snow lotus.”
Princess Hui An’s eyes were bright as she looked at the box. She looked very calm. “At least you’re considerate. What did you give Jingning?
She would never ask if she was giving a gift to only her again because she knew that this girl was a person who benefited from both sides! If she was given a gift, she would give one to Jingning!
Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “I haven’t given it yet.”
Princess Hui An extended her hand. “I’ll give it to her for you.”
There was no need…
As they were speaking, Princess Jingning walked over.
“Princess Jingning!” Little Shunzi hurriedly bowed.
Princess Hui An snorted angrily. ‘What are you doing here? Are you done? Have you chosen your husband so quickly?”
Su Xiaoxiao hummed. “Picking a consort?”
Princess Hui An smiled and said, “That’s right. She’s old enough to get married.
Mother has been looking for a husband for her recently!”
After Jingning got married, she would not be able to snatch her sidekick! Princess Jingning calmly looked at her idiotic sister. “I’m also picking one for you.”
Princess Hui An exploded. “Why are you picking one for me? I’m not getting married!”
Princess Jingning said, “You’re already at the age of marriage. Mother Xian has come to look for Mother several times and asked her not to leave you behind when choosing a husband for me.”
“Is there a suitable candidate?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
Princess Jingning said calmly, “I don’t have any for the time being. She does have a few… Mother Xian likes Jing Yi the most.”
Princess Hui An said angrily, “I don’t want to marry Jing Yi! ”
The two children would be in a tizzy after getting married. Su Xiaoxiao didn’t dare to imagine that scene.
Princess Hui An thought of something and suddenly looked at Princess Jingning with a smile. “I heard that Mother likes Top Scorer Su very much. She might even let Su Xuan be your husband!”
Princess Jingning said readily, “Alright, I’ll marry Su Xuan and be Qin Su’s cousin-in-law in the future.”
Wasn’t this a family… Princess Hui An’s face darkened.
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head secretly. Like Xiaohu, she clearly couldn’t win against him, but she still had to pinch him.
After defeating her sister, Princess Jingning turned to Su Xiaoxiao and said, “You don’t have any arrangements next, right? Coincidentally, I ordered a batch of jewelry. Follow me out of the palace to choose one or two.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Okay.”
Princess Hui An snorted. “I want to go too!”
The three of them left the palace in the carriage and went to the Jade Pavilion to choose jewelry. Su Xiaoxiao had only eaten some osmanthus cake in the carriage to fill her stomach and was a little hungry now.
There was a tea shop nearby that was not bad. It was clearly a tea shop, but it made good plum blossom meat.
The three of them chose a room on the second floor.
Just as she sat down by the window, Su Xiaoxiao heard a familiar voice from next door. She leaned out of the window and asked tentatively, “Fourth
Cousin?”
The voice next door stopped abruptly.
Su Xiaoxiao had just sent Su Xuan back to the Directorate when Su Xuan skipped class again and was caught by his sister.
Su Xuan decided to hide and deny it no matter what, but he could not help but have stupid teammates beside him.
“Miss su?”
Shen Chuan also leaned out of the window and smiled in surprise. “It’s really you? What a coincidence! Brother Su! It’s Miss Su!”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled dangerously. Hide, Su Xuan, continue hiding.
Su Xuan slapped his forehead.
Shen Qinghe got him into trouble!
The two of them came over to greet him.
This was the first time Shen Chuan had seen the two royal princesses. He was so nervous that he was at a loss. He cupped his hands and bowed obediently. “Greetings, Country Protecting Princess. Greetings, Princess Hui An.” “Rise,” Princess Jingning said.
Shen Chuan looked straight ahead, not daring to blaspheme the two royal princesses with his eyes. “Yes.”
Shen Chuan didn’t know the two of them, but Princess Jingning knew him. As one of the most outstanding Top Scorers in this batch, Princess Jingning had read a few of his articles and had a deep impression of him.
Naturally, she had also seen Su Xuan’s. The two of them could be considered outstanding.
However, Su Xuan was a Top Scorer in the capital, while Shen Chuan was only a Top Scorer from a local area. In addition, his background was not as good as Su Xuan’s, so his reputation was not as great.
Princess Jingning glanced at Shen Chuan again.
He was a talented person and looked innocent. She could see through him at a glance, unlike Su Xuan. He looked quiet and harmless, but he had a pair of unfathomable eyes.
This man was like a deep pool with endless secrets.
Princess Jingning did not like this feeling of being out of control, but her mother had taken a fancy to him…
“Since you’re here, sit down,” she said.
Shen Chuan looked at Su Xuan.
Su Xuan smiled quietly. “We’ll do as you say.”
Tea with the princesses… Shen Chuan was so nervous.
There was an empty seat beside Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xuan walked over and sat down. Shen Chuan sat on the side. On his right was Su Xuan, and on his other side was Princess Jingning.
The storyteller was telling the story of the war at the border in the lobby on the first floor. Princess Hui An sat by the window and listened with interest.
Su Xiaoxiao realized that Su Xuan was looking at her and couldn’t help but ask,
“What’s wrong?”
Su Xuan said softly, “It’s nothing. The storyteller talked about marriage. That devastatingly beautiful royal princess married into a barbarian land. The two armies fought and used her as a bargaining chip to force her to offer wine to the soldiers like a female slave. She even had to stand on the city tower with disheveled clothes. She couldn’t stand the humiliation and jumped off the city tower. It’s really a pity.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Xuan strangely. “The storyteller didn’t tell this part.”
Su Xuan picked up his teacup and lowered his eyes. “Oh, it was from the last time.”
Shen Chuan leaned over. “Which time? Why haven’t I heard of it?”
Su Xuan smiled quietly. “You weren’t around.”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Princess Hui An.
Princess Hui An was excited when she heard this. As she placed her hands on the windowsill, her eyes were bright, revealing the purest beauty of a young girl.
“We’ll go back to attend class first.” Su Xuan bade farewell to them and went downstairs with Shen Chuan.
Su Xiaoxiao thought of Su Xuan’s words and couldn’t help but look at the lobby again.
Su Xuan seemed to have sensed something and stopped in his tracks, looking up.
“Who are you looking at?” Princess Hui An followed Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze and looked down. Seeing that it was her follower’s brother, she waved at him.
With this wave, the snow lotus box in her arms fell.
“My snow lotus…”
She hurriedly flew forward to grab it. She used too much strength and pounced forward.
Su Xuan looked at the princess who was smashing down at him..
