On the second day, Cheng Jiuyuan and others were at the agreed place, and Zhu Jin and Yan Yu arrived one after another.

After a while, Chu Wan's carriage also arrived. Chu Wan lifted the curtain and waved happily to Cheng Jiuyuan.

"Sister Cheng."

The carriage stopped and she jumped off happily.

At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted again, revealing Chu Heng's harmless and handsome face.

He looked at Cheng Jiuyuan and smiled gently.

Zhu Jin and Yan Yu looked at each other and saluted quickly.

"Meet the Fifth Prince."

"No need to be polite, I'm just a brother sending my sister to the academy."

Chu Wan rolled her eyes.

Everyone knows Sima Zhao's intention.

However, she was still happy to see her royal brother and future royal sister-in-law being so loving.

It takes a full hour to get to the academy by carriage. The royal carriage is naturally the most comfortable. Cheng Jiuyuan's carriage was carefully built by the Pei family.

So Zhu Jin and his companions, who were very tactful, "occupied" Cheng Jiuyuan's carriage and drove Cheng Jiuyuan into Chu Heng's carriage.

In the carriage, Chu Heng placed snacks and tea in front of Cheng Jiuyuan and looked at her gently.

"You don't go to the Ministry of Personnel every other day. Doesn't anyone pass the book to His Majesty?"

"The Ministry of Personnel is responsible for the appointment, dismissal, examination, promotion and demotion of officials. Who dares to report me?"

“Abuse of power.”

It was the end of July, the sun was shining brightly outside the car, there was not a breath of wind, and the heat wave was visible to the naked eye.

There was an ice basin in the car and we ate from an ice bowl, which was quite comfortable.

Cheng Jiuyuan felt that the carriage was moving too slowly. She opened the curtain and a wave of hot air hit her face.

Sure enough, there was no sign of Zhu Jin and her companions' carriage. Only their carriage was running slowly under the scorching sun.

She let down the curtain and said, "It's such a hot day, isn't the mountain hot?" She walked so slowly on purpose.

Chu Heng shook his head: "Those who practice martial arts are not afraid of extreme cold or heat."

Cheng Jiuyuan did not expose his trick, but just lamented Shanlan's worrying life.

Chu Heng opened the curtain and handed Shan Lan a bowl of cold drink: "Second Miss Cheng is worried that you will feel hot."

Shan Lan turned around and said with a grin, "Second Miss Cheng, I have an ice basin next to me. It's not hot."

Cheng Jiuyuan smiled and said, "If it's not hot, just bear with it."

Cheng Jiuyuan leaned against the cushion, reading a storybook, and someone beside her fed her grapes from time to time.

The carriage suddenly stopped.

Then Shan Lan's voice came: "Master, there are people blocking the road ahead."

The students of Baichuan Academy are all of noble status and will achieve great things in the future. The official road leading to Baichuan Academy can be said to be the safest route, and no robbers have ever been heard of.

Cheng Jiuyuan lifted the curtain and thought it was a robber, but it turned out to be Wei Pianpian.

"Fifth Prince, my carriage broke down on the road. Could you give me a ride?"

Cheng Jiuyuan glanced at Chu Heng with a teasing look in his eyes.

Look, your bad luck in love.

"My carriage is too small to accommodate all the passengers. Miss Wei, you'd better ask someone to repair it quickly. Shanlan, go around." After saying this, he was about to lower the curtain.

Wei Pianpian didn't expect that he would refuse so straightforwardly.

Wasn't he on the side of his cousin the Crown Prince? For the sake of his cousin the Crown Prince and the Wei family, he should lend a helping hand.

"Your Highness, the sun is so hot, your servant..."

"You can go wait under the shade of the tree next to you." Chu Heng interrupted her before she could finish.

Seeing how determined he was, Wei Pianpian finally looked at Cheng Jiuyuan standing beside her.

"Second Miss Cheng, we were classmates after all, and going to the academy is just a side trip. Can you talk to His Highness about it?"

Cheng Jiuyuan curled her lips and smiled.

This is finally seeing her presence.

"I'm sorry, Miss Wei, this is His Highness's carriage. How can I persuade His Highness?"

After saying that, Cheng Jiuyuan got into the carriage, sat down, and took a bite of ice cheese.

It's really hot today.

Chu Heng also lowered the curtain, Shan Lan waved his whip, and drove the carriage around.

Cheng Jiuyuan continued to lean against the cushion and read the storybook.

"Is it hot?" Chu Heng asked eagerly.

Just as he said, people who practice martial arts can regulate their body temperature, and with the ice basin, it really wasn't hot.

Seeing that she didn't answer, Chu Heng picked up his folding fan and fanned her.

"How dare I trouble His Highness the Fifth Prince." Although he said this, Cheng Jiuyuan didn't even raise his eyelids and enjoyed it with peace of mind.

"I really don't know when I provoked that Miss Wei. Really."

Yesterday he thought she was overthinking it and the incident with the medicine downstairs at Ruyi Building had nothing to do with him.

After what happened today, he suddenly felt insecure.

"I will fix it and won't let what happened yesterday happen again."

Cheng Jiuyuan said "hmm", and Chu Heng continued to feed and fan her.

Not long after, the sound of wheel was heard behind him. Cheng Jiuyuan lifted a corner of the curtain and saw Wei Pianpian's carriage following behind.

“This was repaired pretty quickly.”

Chu Heng ordered Shan Lan: "Don't be so slow, walk faster."

"Okay." Shan Lan whipped the carriage and it started running quickly.

When they arrived at the academy, the two got off the carriage.

"Come in quickly."

"Are you going back now?"

"I got some news about Zhang Jiucheng yesterday, so I have to go there in person today."

Cheng Jiuyuan's eyes lit up: "Then you should go back quickly, we can't let him get away."

Chu Heng sighed: "I've been sitting in the carriage for an hour, and now I'm forced to leave. How cruel."

"I said I don't need Your Highness to send me off."

"But I want to stay with you."

It was so straightforward that Cheng Jiuyuan didn't know what to say.

"Come in quickly, the sun is too strong."

"Then you should get into the carriage as well."

"Well, I'll wait for you to go in first."

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded, took her things and turned to walk towards the academy.

At this time, the Wei Mansion's carriage also arrived, and Wei Pianpian got off the carriage.

Chu Heng was about to turn around and get in the car when Wei Pianpian hurried over.

"Your Highness!"

"Is something wrong?"

Wei Pianpian's face, which always had a faint smile, showed a little more grievance: "Why is Your Highness so cold?"

Chu Heng glanced at Cheng Jiuyuan who had not walked far, and saw that she happened to turn around and look at this side, so he immediately took a step back to distance himself from Wei Pianpian.

"There are differences between men and women, and besides, I don't know Miss Wei well."

Wei Pianpian seemed a little bit unbelievable.

"Not familiar with each other? How come?"

"When I was young, I often went to the palace to visit my cousin the Crown Prince..."

Chu Heng frowned, remembering that the prince used to be followed by a little tail.

But when he was young, he avoided the prince and the queen as much as possible, so why would he care about who was behind the prince.

As he grew older, he buried the hatred deep in his heart and spent every day thinking about how to kill the prince and the Wei family. It was impossible for him to pay attention to the young lady of the Wei family.

"Your Highness, your servant..."

Chu Heng saw Cheng Jiuyuan had been watching there. Rumors were most likely to spread at the entrance of the academy, so he interrupted again: "Miss Wei, be careful with your words. Goodbye!"

After saying that, he turned around and got on the carriage.

Looking at Chu Heng who was fleeing and Wei Pianpian who was sad and depressed, Cheng Jiuyuan curled his lips into a smile, then turned and walked inside.

A student passed by and called her, "Cheng Jiuyuan, Master Jiang is looking for you, go quickly."

Cheng Jiuyuan nodded: "I'll go after I put my things down."

Cheng Jiuyuan returned to the dormitory to put his things away and went to find his master.

"Master, are you looking for me?"

Jiang Miaoduan handed a few articles to Cheng Jiuyuan: "Take a look."
