"Yes." Wen Ning felt relieved immediately, "Thank you for your answer, Your Highness. I don't have any other questions."

Xiao Yunci nodded, and said in a slightly higher voice, "Deng Wu."

"I'm here!" Deng Wu's voice came from the door immediately, startling Wen Ning. He? He was actually outside the whole time? There was no sound at all, which was quite scary.

"Come in." Xiao Yunci ordered.

The door was immediately pushed open, and Deng Wu quickly walked to Xiao Yunci and knelt down. From the corner of his eye, he saw Xiao Yunci's loose clothes that looked as if he hadn't worn at all, and he immediately narrowed his eyes and lowered his head, unable to bear to look at him.

"Send someone to escort Miss Wen out of the palace." He gave simple instructions.

"Yes! I'll do it right away!" Deng Wu stood up hurriedly and showed Wen Ning a flattering smile, "Miss Wen, please."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Wen Ning bowed to Xiao Yunci, and when she raised her head slightly, she met his slightly lazy look. His brown-black eyes looked even darker and deeper in the dim room.

She was flustered for a moment, and whispered "Your Majesty, take your leave" and hurried out the door. But just when she reached the screen, she remembered that Xiao Yunci had asked her to address him as "you and me", but she actually forgot it in the end.

She walked out quickly in embarrassment, not daring to look back at him. She only felt that his heavy gaze seemed to be always falling on her.

Today is also a nice day, the spring breeze blows across people's faces from time to time, gentle and comfortable.

Deng Wu seemed to have guessed that he would be doing this kind of work today, and he had already prepared the carriage. All the way from the palace to the capital, Deng Wu personally stood outside the carriage to ask about the prince's well-being, as if he was not the prince's follower, but Wen Ning was his real master.

Wen Ning was flattered and was polite to him repeatedly, but she found that the more polite she was to Deng Wu, the more he praised her with stars in his eyes, praising her to the point that she was unmatched.

The streets of the capital were deserted and lifeless. Wen Ning lifted the curtain of the car and looked out. They were almost at the Wen Mansion.

She hadn't been home for a long time, and she couldn't help feeling a little worried. Uncle Wen Yuanzheng and Aunt Cao had always put profit first. If they knew that she was going to marry Xiao Yunci, they would probably try every means to use her to get what she wanted.

When they arrived at the gate of the Wen Mansion, Deng Wu helped Wen Ning get out of the car. He walked to the gate with his chin held high and instructed several times to call someone to come out and pick up Miss Wen. However, the doorman went in for a long while and there was no movement.

Wen Ning lowered her eyes, knowing that none of these people in the family were easy to deal with, and turned to look at Deng Wu, "Eunuch Deng has worked hard today, why don't you go back to the palace and serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? I'm already at the door, I can go in by myself."

"How can that be possible? His Highness has ordered that it must be delivered. I will complete this task today. Miss Wen, you don't have to be polite."

Deng Wu was extremely persistent about this, so Wen Ning stopped being polite with her.

Deng Wu ordered his personal servant to go in and tell them that Eunuch Deng, who was serving the Crown Prince, had escorted Miss Wen back to the palace, and asked them to send someone to meet her.
