I'm a bit stuck in writer's block, so this is just a small chapter. I've been thinking about it for two days but still can't figure out how to write it?°(°ˉ??ˉ?°)°.

"Your Highness has not been to the library for some time."

As soon as Yingying opened the door and walked into the library, Hati floated out from the darkness and saluted Yingying.

"I've been busy lately, but today I have some free time, so I'm just right to read a book."

Yingying nodded, walked to the place where she had seen it last time, took out the familiar book, returned to the table and started reading.

"Dong dong dong."

Not long after Yingying sat down, there was a knock on the door of the library. Her interest was disturbed and she frowned in displeasure.

"Do you need to contact Master Yu Nan?"

Hati asked, bowing beside Yingying.

"No need. She is helping the Queen Mother deal with things. Grandpa Hati, you can go and see her. If she is not an important person, just send her away."

"Yes."

Hati floated to the door and opened it, only to find a handsome young man standing outside the door, followed by three attendants carrying gifts.

"Master Ling Yi? What are you doing?"

"Ah, it turns out to be Grandpa Hati. Didn't I just find these rare elixirs to replenish the body and send them to Your Highness? Your Highness has been busy with work recently and is afraid that she will not be able to bear the burden."

Ling Yi looked like an innocent little boy and Hati was fooled for a while. He turned around to report, but found that Yingying had already put down the letter and walked towards him with displeasure.

"Your Highness."

Hati slightly cupped his hands and floated to the side.

"Your Highness, look, I just found these elixirs and sent them to you because I was afraid you were busy recently."

Ling Yi waved at Yingying with a smile on his face, looking just like the male protagonist in a novel.

"Finished?"

There was no fluctuation on Yingying's pretty face, and she glanced at him calmly.

Ling Yi was a little hesitant. He wanted to get closer to Yingying this time, but Yingying's attitude of not wanting strangers to approach her made him a little timid.

"Just tell me if you have anything to say."

Yingying seemed a little anxious, with a hint of impatience in her tone.

"That's it, could your Highness allow me to accompany you to the park next time?"

Ling Yi asked bravely with a "die early or die" mentality.

"Tell me next time."

Seeing that Yingying relented, although she didn't agree, at least there was some hope, Ling Yi felt a lot happier.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Any thing else?"

"Your Highness, are you here, reading a book?"

Ling Yi tentatively stood up on tiptoes and looked past Yingying into the library, and asked in a low voice.

"how?"

Seeing Yingying was unhappy, Ling Yi waved his hands quickly.

"It's okay. I'm just worried that His Highness will get lonely when he reads alone. I usually read some books, so I thought I could read with His Highness to relieve his boredom. If His Highness doesn't want to, I'll leave now."

Seeing Yingying's face getting darker and darker, Ling Yi quickly changed his words.

"No delivery."

After Yingying said that, she turned around and returned to the library.

Seeing Ling Yi hesitant to speak, Hati sighed and let Ling Yi leave with the gift.

"What does Grandpa Hati think of this person?"

Not long after Hati came back, Yingying suddenly put down the book and asked calmly.

"This, I don't know what His Highness means."

Hati quickly pretended to be stupid. After all, if he said the wrong thing at this time, he would definitely be in trouble.

"Just tell the truth, and I'll forgive you."

Yingying was a little helpless. More and more people around her began to become as smooth as Hati, which made her a little unhappy.

"From my perspective, this man seems to be ignorant of worldly affairs, but he is very thoughtful. I'm afraid he came here this time to get closer to His Highness. As one of the top five aristocratic families in Kyoto, the Ling family naturally wants to get closer. If they want to go further, the easiest way to think of is to let Ling Yi come and make friends with His Highness."

Yingying nodded, Hati's analysis was obviously on point.

"So what do Grandpa Hati and the others want to do next?"

Yingying didn't intend to end the topic just like that.

"I dare not say."

Although Hati saw Ling Yi's personal feelings for Yingying, and there were many young masters from aristocratic families like him in Kyoto, he did not dare to say this out loud.

"He wants to marry me, am I right?"

Yingying looked at Hati with a dead smile, and the coldness in her eyes scared Hati to lower her head and dare not look at her.

"They are innocent. Chasing a girl is not a wrong thing. Regardless of whether I like her or not, even if it's an engagement, I have to put the empire first. I also need to consider my mother's feelings."

Hati raised his head in surprise, but saw the determination in Yingying's eyes.

"My mother saved my life. Without her, I wouldn't be who I am today. I will never refuse anything she wants me to do. Over the years, she has treated me like her own daughter, and I treat her like my own mother."

"Your Highness, repaying a favor is important, but being yourself is more important. This is probably what His Majesty wants to tell you. Only by facing yourself and being yourself can Your Highness see the future clearly."

"I know."

Luanfeng Palace.

Yingmeng looked at the memorials one after another on the desk. There was no doubt that they were either giving gifts to Yingying, or applying to send a girl from the family to the palace to be a maid for Yingying. When the court raised the issue of Yingying's engagement, such memorials suddenly became more frequent.

"Yunan."

Ying Meng put all the memorials on the desk and rubbed her head helplessly.

"The servant is here."

Yu Nan walked in quickly from the door.

"Where is Yinger now?"

"Back to Your Majesty, you are in the library."

"That's all, I'd better go and have a rest."

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

"explain."

"Ling Yi, the leader of the Ling family, went to the library to find Her Highness the Princess an hour ago."

"You are trying to please Ying Er again. Alas, having such a lovable daughter makes me, as a mother, a little troubled."

Yingmeng regretted letting Xin Yixi follow Xin Ling back to Xinsheng Empire. When Xin Yixi was with Yingying, these things would happen less frequently.

It seems that we have to put Ying Er and Xiao Xi’s marriage on the agenda.

Yingmeng thought so.

"Is there a maid accompanying Ying'er?"

"Back to Your Majesty, His Highness did not ask the maid to follow him."

"How about this, Yu Nan will stay with Ying'er these days. If Ying'er goes to the library, you will watch at the door and don't let those people disturb Ying'er's interest."

"The slaves obey the order."
