The setting sun shone obliquely into Muyun Pavilion from the main gate, casting a halo over the pavilion.

In the library on the second floor, Xiao Yu looked at the diagram of the secret room mechanism that Yan Qing had drawn based on his memory from yesterday, and thought about how to crack it.

Yun Ting has been to Xuzhou and has not returned yet. Yan Qing’s lightness skills are not good enough and he can’t get in at all. Now if he wants to explore again, he can only go by himself.

"My lord, the princess is here."

Just as I was thinking about something, I heard the voice of a servant outside.

"understood."

Xiao Yu closed the scroll and put it on the bookshelf, then opened the door of the study. Just as he was about to walk out, he saw a woman in a blue gauze dress poking her head out from behind the servant. Her bright eyes looked at the library behind him.

Xiao Yu frowned slightly. He didn't expect Su Lingyue to come here.

Su Lingyue noticed a slight change in Xiao Yu's brows, but she had no intention of turning back.

Xiao Yu was still on guard against her, but she wanted to get into Xiao Yu's heart and see his joys and sorrows.

"Your Majesty, can I see your library?"

Su Lingyue smiled softly, without a shadow in her bright eyes.

In the setting sun, she was like a blue feather, gently scratching Xiao Yu's heart.

"come in."

Xiao Yu replied calmly, then turned aside.

Su Lingyue slightly sideways passed by Xiao Yu and walked into the library.

After Su Lingyue came in, Xiao Yu closed the door again. It was already evening, and without enough sunlight, the library was a little dim.

"Your Highness, is there a light?" Su Lingyue turned and asked the person behind her.

"Ah."

Xiao Yu passed by Su Lingyue in the dim light. He did not turn on the light, but walked to the window and opened it.

The golden sunset shone into the house through the open windows without any obstruction.

After the light came on in the room, Su Lingyue couldn't wait to start visiting the library.

The library is not very big, and its six neatly arranged rows of bookshelves are all filled with books.

From astronomy to geography, from medicine to metaphysics and feng shui, from sword manuals to music scores, many of them were out-of-print copies, but Xiao Yu actually had them all.

"Your Majesty, this is truly a treasure trove."

Su Lingyue couldn't help but sigh. Whenever she saw something interesting, she would pick it up and flip through it.

"It's okay." Xiao Yu's tone was still indifferent. He stood by the window and looked at Su Lingyue quietly.

Although there are a lot of books here, there is not a single dusty thing, which means it must be cleaned regularly.

“Have you read all of this?”

"Well, I read it a few times."

Su Lingyue picked up the "Book of Changes", which made her feel headache just by reading it.

"You've read this one too?"

"Yeah." Xiao Yu responded lightly.

Su Lingyue quickly put the book down and couldn't help but sigh: "You didn't fall asleep while reading this and you can read it several times. I admire you very much."

Xiao Yu seemed to be interested and asked, "Why, do you often fall asleep while reading?"

Su Lingyue shook her head. "No, I can't read the metaphysical and strange books. First, they are obscure and difficult to understand. Also, they look a bit... well, I just can't read them."

"Afraid?" Xiao Yu asked with a slight curl of his lips.

Su Lingyue didn't want to answer this question, so she quickly picked up a medical book and changed the subject.

"…Your Majesty, can you lend me this book for a few days?"

"can."

Xiao Yu agreed readily.

When Su Lingyue walked to Xiao Yu's side, she saw a scroll on the bookshelf.

Su Lingyue was curious and wanted to pick it up to have a look, but Xiao Yu's slightly cool hand covered her warm hand and said lightly: "This is not allowed."

Su Lingyue looked up. Xiao Yu was standing beside her. His cold face like jade was just within reach of her. His deep eyes were looking down at her, and his slightly warm breath was falling on Su Lingyue's face.

Su Lingyue's cheeks and ears began to feel hot, and her breathing also became hot, entangled with Xiao Yu's hot breath.

Because it was too hot, Su Lingyue could not see clearly. She blinked and her eyes were slightly rippling.

Su Lingyue looked at Xiao Yu's chest rising and falling slightly. His breathing seemed to be hotter than before, and it fell on her hot face.

Xiao Yu's eyes were like deep pools, making Su Lingyue indulge in them and almost suffocate. Her eyes moved slightly downwards and stared at Xiao Yu's slightly red lips.

It looks very soft.

Su Lingyue blinked, her eyes trembled slightly, and then she swallowed.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu raised his other hand, covered Su Lingyue's eyes, and said, "Su Lingyue, I can't show you this yet." His voice was slightly hoarse.

Su Lingyue blinked, "Well... I... don't want to watch."

Xiao Yu's action of covering his eyes made Su Lingyue confused.

Why are you covering your eyes for no reason?

Su Lingyue pulled her hand away from the scroll and said softly, "My Lord, I can't see anymore."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Changshi loosened his hand, picked up the scroll from the bookshelf and put it higher, then turned and walked to the window, looking at the sunset outside.

Su Lingyue walked to the window and stood beside Xiao Yu. The evening breeze blew into the attic, dispersing some of the heat.

Su Lingyue looked at the layers of sunset glowing in the sky, which emitted golden light and made Xiao Yu beside her seem to glow.

Su Lingyue leaned her head slightly on Xiao Yu's arm and sighed, "The name Mu Yunxuan is really appropriate. Does the prince also like to watch the sunset?"

Xiao Yu said softly, "Yeah, I like it."

"I like it too." Su Lingyue agreed softly.

Su Lingyue and Xiao Yu watched a beautiful sunset together. She felt that this was the most beautiful sunset she had ever seen in her 17 years of life.

Until the sun set completely and the attic fell into darkness, Su Lingyue was still leaning on Xiao Yu's side, her heart still surging with joy.

"I'll light the lamp." Xiao Yu's voice was gentle in the darkness.

"Yeah." Su Lingyue moved her head away and stood up.

After a moment, the lantern on the table next to it lit up, and the dark room instantly became bright again.

Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue and asked gently, "What are you doing here today?"

After Xiao Yu reminded her, Su Lingyue finally remembered the purpose of coming to see Xiao Yu.

Su Lingyue took out two sachets from her arms.

"I entered the palace today and visited my mother. She gave me two sachets, saying they were for repelling mosquitoes."

As he said that, he handed the black sachet embroidered with mandarin ducks to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu took the sachet and chuckled, "You are so thoughtful. Is my mother okay?"

Su Lingyue said: "Well, he looks good."

Su Lingyue put the sachet back into her arms, and then took out a roll of measuring cloth.

"Yesterday I said I wanted to make a new set of clothes for you, but when I went to the cloth shop I realized I didn't know the size. Your Majesty, don't move. I'll measure you."

Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue and said, "I just responded casually, but you took it seriously!"

Su Lingyue said seriously: "Well, the prince and I will live together for a long time, and I think the prince will not lack anything. Sending clothes during festivals is a good choice.

So, I'm going to start measuring, Your Majesty, don't move."

"Yeah." Xiao Yu responded and really didn't move.

Su Lingyue was not familiar with using a measuring tape, so she measured one part over and over again.

Xiao Yu seemed to be unable to bear Su Lingyue's groping on him, and finally spoke up, jokingly saying: "Su Lingyue, do you want to measure the size or do something?"

"This is my first time measuring, so I'm not very familiar with it."

Su Lingyue felt a little guilty about touching Xiao Yu.

My original intention was to measure the arm, but I accidentally felt the firm muscles and pinched them a couple of times.

When measuring his waist, it looked like he was holding Xiao Yu's waist. When his hands touched the tight waist and abdomen, he wondered why the man's waist and abdomen were so hard. He couldn't help but feel curious and pressed it twice.

After measuring, Xiao Yu looked at Su Lingyue with amusement.

Su Lingyue didn't dare to look Xiao Yu in the eye. She picked up the paper recording the size and the borrowed book and ran away.
