"How come Fourteenth Prince has the time to come to the Snow Pavilion? However, in the future, you should be careful. After all, this is the residence of a woman, it is best not to casually enter as a man, to avoid gossip," Qu Tan'er's voice was gentle, and she shifted the topic with an admonition, using the tone of an elder.
Upon hearing this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across Mo Jingxuan's handsome face.
Qu Tan'er's words were quite reasonable.
"I... I don't have anything specific. Just came by to take a look."
"Alright, I'm not unreasonable. Yuela is inside. If you have time, visit her and strengthen your relationship," Qu Tan'er scolded first, then gave a piece of sugar, successfully resolving her awkward situation.
"Oh? Yuela is here too? Then, I'll take my leave."
"Take care, no need to see me off," Qu Tan'er politely waved her hand to bid him farewell.
Mo Jingxuan's peach blossom eyes flickered, and in the end, he chose to step aside.
Just as he turned to a corner, he heard from behind...
"Jing Xin, quickly stabilize the ladder. I'm going up."
"Mistress, how about I go out of the mansion?"
"No, I need to ask about this myself, otherwise, I won't be at ease."
"But..."
"There's nothing to hesitate about, it's decided."
"But..."
"If you hesitate any longer, it will be dark soon!"
Jing Xin was speechless and could only stabilize the ladder. However, she also carefully observed the surroundings, fearing that Mo Jingxuan might come again.
But, what was there to fear?
"Princess, please come down. If you get injured, we servants can't bear the responsibility." The steward's respectful voice echoed. At the same time, without waiting for Qu Tan'er to respond, he continued, "The Prince asked me to come over and remind you, the ground outside the wall is a bit hard. He's afraid that if the Princess jumps down, it might result in... "
"It might result in broken hands and feet, head injuries, or even paralysis and a miserable death, right?" Qu Tan'er narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of anger appearing on her face, but she restrained it.
The steward remained silent for a while before calmly speaking, "The Prince is concerned about the Princess' well-being."
"Alright, tell the prince I just came up for some fresh air. I didn't plan to do anything. You can leave." Qu Tan'er said dejectedly, looking at the world outside the mansion, then turning back to glance at the cage inside the mansion. Indeed, heaven and hell were separated by a thin line.
For those who couldn't cross, perhaps could never cross.
Qu Tan'er let the steward leave, but he didn't move.
Qu Tan'er swept a glance at the steward and climbed down reluctantly.
As she descended, Qu Tan'er also noticed a few guards standing not far behind the steward.
She smirked, a black line appearing on her forehead. She didn't need to find a high building, a river, or a piece of rock to smash her head against. There was already a ready-made hard wall for her to collide with.
The Princess consort climbing a wall - her face was thoroughly lost...
At this moment, the steward ordered the guards to directly move the ladder.
Qu Tan'er couldn't be bothered to say anything more. She glanced at Jing Xin, who was also silent, turned around, and walked towards the room. Leaving the sight of everyone, she asked seriously, "Jing Xin, besides the main gate, is there any other way to get out?"
"There isn't," Jing Xin shook her head.
"There should be..." Qu Tan'er squinted her eyes. She originally walked towards the bedroom, but now she turned towards the courtyard gate.
"Mistress, where are you going?"
"The Frost Pavilion."
And then...
