The Facility of the Military Supervisor was not in the Royal Palace, but in the north-west of the Eastern Suburbs of the Palace.

Except for the officials and craftsmen of the Military Supervisor, even the Ministers of the Central Government couldn't enter without an Imperial decree.

That day in the morning, Murong Ci and Qin Ruo rode a carriage to the Eastern Suburbs.

and were stopped halfway as they passed the street.

Qin Ruo lifted the curtain of the carriage, and a clear and cheerful voice came in:

"Where is Your Highness going?

I want to go, too."

In front of the carriage stood a pretty girl, dressed in a pink and purple summer robe, with a purple-red silk skirt, and a purple Jade hairpin inserted diagonally on the hair buns.

She was smiling with her pouting eyebrows.

It was Princess Duanrou, Murong Shi.

Murong Ci's heart twitched, and she reluctantly said,

"This Prince has something important to do today, so I'll meet with the Princess another day."

Murong Shi climbed up and said with a smile:

"I'll go, too. I won't be in Your Highness's way.

Your Highness can treat me like Qin Ruo."

"The Princess has a Noble status, so how can it be compared with a servant like me?"

Qin Ruo smiled and immediately squatted next to the coachman, blocking her way.

"Qin Ruo, I want to go up! Let me pass."

Murong Shi said anxiously.

"Princess, Your Royal Highness really has something important to do today, so we can't delay it anymore."

Qin Ruo explained kindly.

"I will accompany Your Highness!

I won't bother Your Highness, let alone delay your affairs."

Murong Shi smiled and said.

This time she was determined and insisted on following.

"How do you separate the Azuki-Red Beans and Sesame Seeds like I asked you last time?

Did you think of a way to separate them quickly?"

Murong Ci held her forehead speechlessly,

"If you haven't thought of it, the Princess might as well go back to her Palace and continue thinking first, and then come back to me after thinking about it."

"Your Royal Highness, I have been thinking about it for several days, but I just couldn't think of it."

Murong Shi smiled,

"But then I went to a shop selling Azuki-Red Beans and asked the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper said, I just need to find a suitable sieve and sift the Azuki-Red Beans down.

Yes, Your Highness, I tried it and it really worked."

"The Princess is asking others to get the method, and didn't invent or think by herself, so it doesn't count."

Qin Ruo smiled.

"But I really couldn't think of it."

Murong Shi pouted aggrievedly, and looked at His Royal Highness in the carriage with brilliant eyes.

"Princess, this Prince has really important matters to do today.

Why don't you go to see Shen Zhiyan, and later I'll will find him when the affairs are done."

Murong Ci gave up and said.

"I see..."

Murong Shi tilted her head and hesitated.

Without paying attention, the carriage rushed forward like an arrow, grazing past her.

If she had gotten closer, she would have been hit.

She froze for a moment, and instinctively hurried her legs to catch up with it,

"Your Highness, wait for me...!

Your Highness...Your Highness..."

Passers-by stopped to watch, unable to stop their gossiping heart,

'Your Highness?

Could it be His Royal Highness?

Who is that girl chasing the carriage?'

Qin Ruo urged the coachman:

"Hurry up! You can't let the Princess catch up."

Murong Ci smiled slightly, and finally got rid of the "pestering Princess",

"Qin Ruo, this time around you were witty."

Qin Ruo returned inside the carriage and said with a smile:

"The Princess started screamed after chasing for a while.

Many people were watching her."

Murong Shi chased for a while, and saw that the carriage was getting farther and farther, so she could only breathe and sigh at the carriage.
