64 She Have To Be More Careful (1/2)

When Princess Lingchen returned to her palace, she saw her cousin brother, Jiang Xiao Tian stood at a corner. The princess stopped, and her entourage stopped a distance from her with their head bowed low.

Jiang Xiao Tian walked towards the Crown Princess and bowed politely. ”Your Highness.”.

”Were you waiting for me?” It has been almost a week since the last time she met him during her stroll in the city.

Jiang Xiao Tian smiled. ”I do have some matters I need to discuss with you.”

The Princess nodded. ”Let's take a walk at my garden.” She tilted her head slightly to the right and called, ”Ah Zhen.”

Ah Zhen stepped forward beside her with a thick robe in her hand. She helped the princess to cover a cloak around her body and retreated to the side to give them privacy.

Princess Lingchen then led her cousin brother towards her garden. Most of the trees have shed their leaves, and the ground was covered with a thin white layer of snow as the capital experienced light snowfall last night. They stopped once they reached a bench. A few months ago, her favorite Camellia flower was blooming.

”Are you alright?” Princess Lingchen gave Jiang Xiao Tian a look over.

Jiang Xiao Tian was startled by her question. It took him a few seconds before he answered, ”I'm fine. Thank you for your concern. Your Highness.”

Princess Lingchen continued to watch him. She knew that he was lying. She had noticed the way Jiang Xiao Tian walked earlier. Although he tried to hide it so well, she could see the way he was slightly limping.

She wondered if he was injured, and quickly dismissed that thought. She knew that the Emperor had not sent him out on a dangerous mission after he returned to the capital.
