Ye Siyuan was anxious, fearing Si Mingjing wouldn't agree!
She was concerned about Crown Prince Lisao's safety.
"Mingjing, Crown Prince Lisao's status is special. If he were assassinated in Yecheng, those unaware might think my brother was the mastermind. If that led to war between our countries... Therefore, we should fulfill our duties as hosts and properly protect Crown Prince Lisao. Wouldn't you agree?"
"Alright."
Si Mingjing knew her brother, the Crown Prince, wouldn't rest until he achieved his goal. She just didn't know what he truly intended by insisting on staying at the palace.
Crown Prince Lisao smiled faintly, raising his face to look at Si Mingjing. "Thank you, my dear sister. I can't argue with such hospitality, so I shall graciously accept your kindness."
Si Mingjing desperately wanted to rip that scheming smile off his face.
Wounded and exhausted from the long journey, Crown Prince Lisao put down his teacup and stood up. "My dear sister, I'd like to rest now."
