While An Yiqing and Gong Le were drinking tea, a guard came to report: "Your Highness the Third Prince, Prince Bolin has arrived."
Prince Bolin, the son of Marquis Bolin, was named Xi Ziyen. An Yiqing often indulged in eating, drinking, and merriment with Xi Ziyen, indicating Xi Ziyen's equally fun-loving nature.
Without even looking at the guard, An Yiqing said, "Let him come here."
"Yes, Your Highness."
As soon as Xi Ziyen arrived, he cupped his hands and bowed in greeting, "Your Highness the Third Prince."
An Yiqing gestured for Xi Ziyen to sit down before smilingly asking, "What brings you here today?"
Xi Ziyen glanced at Gong Le, who was sitting very close to An Yiqing, and laughed, "I haven't seen the Third Prince out playing these days, so I came to check."
An Yiqing nudged his chin towards Gong Le, "Isn't it because this little ancestor came to see me? I have to accompany her, leaving no time to go out."
