CHAPTER 452 (1): INVITE

Su Xi-er had just linked arms with Pei Qianhao, and the pair had been about to walk into the Prince Hao Residence when an Imperial Army guard sped over on horseback.

He stopped before the entrance and dismounted. “Prince Hao, the Second Imperial Prince has returned to the palace. Consort Dowager Guo is setting up a banquet, and has specifically invited you and the Princess Consort.”

Pei Qianhao turned towards Su Xi-er. “Do you want to go?”

“Of course, Consort Dowager Guo is sincerely inviting us.” Su Xi-er answered and pulled him forward.

Pei Qianhao signalled to a guard at the side with his eyes, and the latter immediately went to the backyard of the Prince Hao Residence. It wasn’t long before a horse carriage was brought before them.

“Come here.” Pei Qianhao grasped her hand and walked to the side of the carriage. Supporting her waist, he gave a little push to help her get onto the carriage.

“Swiftly return to the palace and report to Consort Dowager Guo that this Prince will be there soon.” Pei Qianhao ordered the Imperial Army guard and leapt onto the carriage.

The Imperial Army guard mounted his horse and cracked the horsewhip, rushing on ahead to deliver the message.

Inside the spacious carriage, Pei Qianhao was afraid that the ride would be too bumpy for Su Xi-er, and had set her on his lap, letting her use his chest as a pillow.

Thus, Su Xi-er didn’t hesitate to take advantage, even adjusting her position from time to time to get more comfortable.

“It’s so hard to wait upon the Princess Consort.” Pei Qianhao couldn’t help but whisper in her ear and tease her.

“You still have to wait upon me, no matter how hard it is. This life of yours has fallen into the palm of my hand.” A glint flashed past Su Xi-er’s eyes as she purposely raised her hand to make it look like a wolf’s paw.
