“We can still go out from the city gate in the western city district. Furthermore, we are riding in the carriage of Prince Qi’s Manor. They won’t stop us.”

Xiao Jue and Xiao Jin had a blood feud. It was good for both of them. At the very least, the authorities would not think that Xiao Jin would help Xiao Jue leave the city.

After eating their fill, the family of four boarded the horse carriage.

The horse carriage slowed down when it reached the city gate in the western city district.

Although the city gate in the western city district was still open, everyone who went out of the city had to undergo strict checks to prevent Xiao Jue from escaping.

When it was the turn of Xiao Jin’s group, the soldiers guarding the city stepped forward to greet them. Just as Xiao Jin said, they didn’t even look at them before letting them out.

When the horse carriage came to a stop by the river, Su Ying realized that Xiao Jin was taking them on a boat cruise.

After getting off the horse carriage, Xiao Jin led the two children to the shore.

“Get on.”

The pleasure boat wasn’t small, but other than the servants, there were only the four of them. “You booked this whole boat?”

“This boat was originally the property of Prince Qi’s Manor.” It was just that he did not register it under the name of Prince Qi’s Manor but under Wei Siyuan’s.

“Cousin-in-law, Elder Cousin, all of you are here.”

Wei Siyuan walked out of the cabin.

Su Ying had previously said that she would go and give him a check-up but she had forgotten about it. However, he appeared to be recovering quite well. His recovery ability seemed to be much stronger than that of ordinary people.

“Are you alright now?”

Wei Siyuan said with a smile, “I’m fine now. I recovered my strength very quickly after taking Cousin-in-law’s medicine.”

After thinking for a moment, Su Ying still decided to get him into the cabin to give him a basic checkup.

“You have indeed recovered very well.”

Xiao Jin was completely relieved when he heard her say that. “It’s good that he’s fine.”

“They should be here soon.”

Su Ying was puzzled. “Who are they?”

Xiao Jin replied, “I told you before that I’ll bring you to meet some friends if 1 get a chance.”

Su Ying was a little curious to know who Xiao Jin was friends with.

Soon, there was movement on the deck.

Su Ying stood on the deck and saw a few men and women walking toward them.

Su Ying’s eyesight was quite good, and she detected a familiar figure in that group. “Zhu Lin? He is also one of your people?”

Xiao Jin looked at Su Ying and nodded. “Mm-hmm. He wasn’t very at ease with you previously.”

Xiao Jin wasn’t so sure about Zhu Lin’s mother but Zhu Lin’s relationship with Xiao Jin was actually not bad.

Su Ying gave a scornful sneer. So was that why Zhu Lin felt that she would harm the two children and wanted to take them away when they were in Sky Alpha City?

The few of them boarded the boat and greeted Su Ying when they saw her. However, a woman beside them looked at Su Ying with a hint of hostility in her eyes.

Su Ying raised an eyebrow and looked away.

“Everyone, don’t just stand there. Go sit up stairs. The snacks and drinks are ready,” Wei Siyuan said. Thereafter, everyone followed him to the second deck.

The second deck resembled a private room, and tables and chairs had already been set up inside.

Xiao Jin held Su Ying’s hand as they walked in and sat down on their chairs.

The two little ones sat to Su Ying’s left, and next to them was the woman in green. After sitting down, she picked some snacks for the two little ones with a kind expression. “1 remember that this red date cake is the favorite snack of the Young Prince and the Young Princess. Here, have a taste.”

The older toddler Ji and the younger toddler Ling looked at the snacks on the plate and didn’t touch them. Instead, they turned to look at Su Ying.

Su Ying had once told them that they mustn’t casually eat food given by other people. Even if they wanted to eat it, they had to get their parents’ permission first so that they didn’t accidentally eat food that had been poisoned.

Su Ying didn’t nod immediately when she saw the two little ones looking at her. Instead, she picked up a piece of red date cake and put it into her mouth. After swallowing the red date cake and making sure there was no problem, she nodded slightly. “You can eat it.”

When she saw this, the green-robed woman’s expression changed. “Your Highness, are you worried that 1’11 poison the snacks? This is too ridiculous. Everyone knew that in the entire capital, other than Xiao Jue, only Princess Consort Qi was hoping that something would happen to the Young Princess and Young Prince.”

“Xiang Lin, don’t spout nonsense.” As soon as Xiang Lin finished speaking, she was scolded by Wei Siyuan softly.

A man with a scholarly bearing tugged at Xiang Lin. “Don’t bring up the past again.”

Zhu Lin didn’t mind the drama and was gawking happily. “Xiang Lin wasn’t wrong. The previous Cousin-in-law was indeed quite despicable. She even hung the child up to beat him.”

“Get lost if you don’t know how to talk.” Xiao Jin’s icy eyes darkened. When his gaze swept over Xiang Lin, it was filled with a warning look.

Xiang Lin met Xiao Jin’s gaze, and her eyes revealed an aggrieved expression. “I… I was not sensible and offended Her Highness.”

Ji looked at the red date cake on the plate and pushed it away. “I don’t want to eat your red date cake. Mother is the best mother. I won’t allow you to speak ill of Mother!”

Ling also puffed up her tiny face and glared at her with displeasure. “You’re the bad guy!”

Xiang Lin looked at the children who used to address her as “Aunt Xiang” obediently. Yet, now, they were glaring at her in anger, and she felt hurt all of a sudden.

“I feel a little unwell suddenly. I’ll go to the first deck to get some fresh air first.” After saying that, Xiang Lin stood up and left.

Upon seeing this, the pale-faced scholar sighed helplessly. “I’ll go with her.”

“Gosh! The falling flowers are besotted but the stream flows past heartlessly. How pitiful!” The seemingly flighty Young Marquis Murong, whose smile carried a hint of wickedness, lamented with emotion.

Su Ying’s gaze swept across these people’s faces. It was obvious that, with the exception of Wei Siyuan, these people all had some opinions about her.

Su Ying didn’t mind either. She picked up the snacks on the table and started eating them with the two little ones.

Xiao Jin warned, “If you don’t respect Her Highness, don’t show yourself in front of me in the future.”

Xiao Jin’s words made the rest of the people become more solemn. He had always treated them as his friends and rarely said such harsh words. Although they were displeased with what Su Ying did in the past, they would not fall out with Xiao Jin because of this.

“Don’t be angry. Previously, we did have some misunderstandings with the Princess Consort. This won’t happen again. We hereby toast this cup of wine to Her Highness.”

Young Marquis Murong was the first to stand up and offer Su Ying a toast.

Su Ying picked up the wine cup on the table and downed it in one gulp.

Zhu Lin and the middle-aged man beside him also stood up to toast. Su Ying returned the toasts one by one.

After he saw them toasting, Xiao Jin’s expression eased a little.

“Cousin-in-law, you’re back. Those people in the northern wilderness will listen to you obediently and won’t rebel, right?” Zhu Lin opened his mouth and changed the topic.

Su Ying picked up a walnut on the table and gently squeezed it. The shell of the walnut instantly shattered. She blew the shattered shell fragments away and retrieved the nut inside before popping the whole thing into her mouth.

“Then I’ll let them have a taste of what it feels like to have their skulls crushed with one hand.”

Zhu Lin gagged at once, almost choking himself to death on his snack.

Murong Li gave Su Ying a thumbs-up. “Your Highness is still the best.”

“There’s no point in just sitting around. Why don’t we have a fishing competition today?” Wei Siyuan suggested.

“Do you want to play?” Xiao Jin turned to ask Su Ying.

Su Ying took a sip of tea. Freshly caught fish tasted the best. “Sure.”

After she agreed to the suggestion, Xiao Jin held her hand and led her to the deck.

“Father, Mother, we want to play too.”

Su Ying and her group had just reached the deck when they saw Xiang Lin walking towards them..
