Early the next morning, Feng Qi went to Qingsong Courtyard to have breakfast with his grandparents as usual. However, before he even reached the gate of the courtyard, he met the person he expected.

"Sister Qi'er, wait for me." Xiao Qianqian's voice sounded from behind.

Feng Qi listened to the voice, the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously, she turned around and smiled, "Cousin, are you here to pay your respects to grandpa and grandma?"

Xiao Qianqian felt a little embarrassed at the moment. The general's mansion didn't have such rules. It didn't require every child to pay respects to their elders in the morning and evening, so she usually didn't come.

At the moment, I could only smile and reply, "Yes, sister Qi'er, let's go together."

After saying that, he walked up to Feng Qi, took her arm, and walked into the yard together.

Old Mr. and Mrs. Xiao looked at the two sisters coming together arm in arm. Although they were a little surprised, they were still happy.

After having breakfast together, Xiao Qianqian took the initiative to speak, "Grandpa and grandma, I made an appointment with sister Qi'er to go boating on the lake together today."

Madam Xiao looked at the two sisters with a loving face, "Go, bring more people, and be sure to pay attention to safety."

The two nodded in agreement and left Qingsong Courtyard.

"Sister Qi'er, is there anything else you need to prepare?" Xiao Qianqian asked.

Feng Qi didn't expect her to be so impatient, and of course she couldn't let her wait for long, so she said, "Cousin, I'm ready, let's go."

The two arrived at the gate of the general's mansion and saw a carriage parked in front of the door. Feng Qi frowned.

"Sister Qi'er, you don't mind if we ride in the same carriage, right? This way we can talk on the way," Xiao Qianqian spoke first.

Feng Qi smiled and said, "Of course not, I also want to have a good chat with my cousin!"

In this way, the two of them, each with their personal maid, rushed to Danyang Lake in a carriage driven by a coachman.

Xuanwang Mansion

Early in the morning, a loud shout broke the tranquility of Prince Xuan's Palace.

"Little uncle, little uncle, are you ready?" Si Zirui started shouting from outside the mansion gate.

When I arrived at the front hall, I ran into Shadow and asked, "Where is the young uncle?"

"The master is having breakfast," Shadow replied.

When Si Zirui heard this, he quickened his pace and rushed to the dining hall. In order to get here earlier this morning, he only ate two buns and was not full.

So, Si Xuan, who was having a meal, suddenly saw a figure sitting down opposite him. He grabbed the food on the table and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he had been hungry for several meals.

Si Xuan put down his bowl and chopsticks. He really didn't feel like having a meal with Si Zirui, so he prepared to go back to his room to change his clothes.

"Uh uh..." When Si Zirui saw that the little uncle had left, he held the steamed dumplings in his hands and stuffed his mouth full. He opened his mouth to call for help but no words came out.

Or it was Shadow who choked him, and he said, "Don't worry, Master. Please go back to your room and change your clothes."

Si Zirui then began to eat with peace of mind again. The food, drinks and other necessities in Prince Xuan's Mansion were better than those of the two of them. They were both princes' mansions, so why was their home so bad?

After having a comfortable breakfast, Shadow told him that his master had gone out, which made him run madly again. Fortunately, he caught up with the carriage.

He climbed directly onto his little uncle's private carriage at the door. Looking at the person who climbed in, Si Xuan resisted the urge to throw him down.

He could only turn around and pick up a book and stop looking at his useless nephew.

Danyang Lake

At three quarters past the hour of the si River, many horse-drawn carriages were already parked on the grass by the lake.

Feng Qi got off the carriage and looked at the surrounding scenery. It was indeed very beautiful. If there were no mess, she could have a good time sightseeing.

"Sister Qi'er, let's go. I sent someone to book a boat in advance yesterday," Xiao Qianqian said after getting off the carriage.

The two walked towards the pleasure boats docked by the lake. There were small ones on this side and a few large ones on the other side, all of which were equipped with rooms.

"Sister Qi'er, today it's just you and me, so we have booked a small pleasure boat. Next time we can invite more friends and book a bigger one," Xiao Qianqian said with a smile.

The two of them boarded the boat together, and the boatman rowed towards the center of the lake.

The two maids placed the cakes they brought on the small table in the cabin.

Feng Qi admired the surrounding scenery. The lake was full of blooming lotus flowers and small boats were floating on the lake in groups of three or two.

Similarly, she noticed that when their boat left the shore, a large pleasure boat also left the shore, keeping a distance from them.

"Sister Qi'er, what do you think of the scenery?" Xiao Qianqian asked with a smile.

"The scenery is truly beautiful. I didn't expect that there would be such a scenic spot in the bustling capital." Feng Qi was telling the truth.

"I knew sister Qi'er would like it."

"Sister Qi'er, let's go outside. The scenery we see from the bow of the boat is truly amazing," Xiao Qianqian suggested.

After saying that, he took her hand and asked her to stand up without caring whether Feng Qi agreed or not.

Feng Qi followed her momentum and walked to the bow, pretending to be a little scared and holding Xiao Qianqian's arm tightly.

The ship, which was originally some distance away, also moved towards them the moment they walked out of the cabin.

But in a moment he could clearly see the person on the opposite deck, the third prince Si Ziyu.

Xiao Qianqian pretended to be surprised and said, "Meet His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

"Miss Xiao, there's no need to be so polite. If you're just going out for fun, you don't have to care about those empty formalities," Si Ziyu said pretentiously.

In a blink of an eye, he saw the woman next to Xiao Qianqian, his eyes were full of amazement, and he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What is this lady's name?"

Xiao Qianqian smiled and replied, "This is my cousin Feng Qi."

Feng Qi couldn't pretend she didn't know him anymore, so she said, "I, Feng Qi, greet the Third Prince."

Si Ziyu raised his hand and said, "Miss Feng, there's no need to be so polite."

"Cousin, let's go in." Feng Qi pulled her in.

Si Ziyu invited, "Would you two ladies be so kind as to come aboard and join us for a cruise?"

Xiao Qianqian would of course not let her in, so she said, "It is difficult for me to refuse the invitation of the Third Prince, but..."

Then he looked at Feng Qi again, and said with embarrassment, "Sister Qi, look..."

Feng Qi almost laughed in her heart, that's it? But she still refused, to see if they had any other tricks. "Cousin, it would be bad if the news got out that this couple was alone."

As soon as these words were spoken, Si Ziyu and Xiao Qianqian's faces turned dark. This was saying that they had no sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame!

"I didn't think it through. Sister Qi'er is right," Xiao Qianqian said awkwardly.

Si Ziyu said apologetically, "Miss Feng is right. I was just thinking about having fun and almost ruined the reputation of the two ladies. Please forgive me."

Just as Feng Qi was about to turn around and leave, the boat suddenly shook violently, causing Xiao Qianqian beside her to scream in fright.

In panic, he pushed Feng Qi hard.

Feng Qi almost wanted to hit her, but he suppressed his anger, pretended to be frightened, and grabbed Xiao Qianqian's sleeve.

The result is predictable. The two fell into the lake together. The two maids and the people around them all shouted for help...
