Qiao Xiuli looked at her round face, full of loneliness and sadness.

He couldn't bear it for a while.

"I am also at fault. There are many people in my family. If you stay here, you will inevitably come into contact with others."

"But I've already asked my friends to find a suitable house for me. When the time comes, you can move there, first to be clean, and second to—"

He paused and said with deep eyes, "You can play in the water freely, you don't have to just huddle in a small wooden bucket."

He vaguely remembered that the last time he accidentally broke into the house and saw Lanlan lying on his stomach in the wooden barrel, it seemed that the wooden barrel was narrow.

Lanlan jumped up with joy when she heard what Qiao Xiuli said.

She took Qiao Xiuli's hand and circled around him: "Li Li is so nice to you! Your friend is also a good person!"

Qiao Xiu left her to drag him, and there was always a faint smile on his elegant and gentle face.

Two days passed.

In the imperial garden of the palace.

Gu Nuo'er sat in the pavilion enjoying the shade, resting her cheeks in her jade hands, listening to the fourteenth prince sitting opposite, talking about Qiao Xiuli.

"My sister should understand the personality of brother Xiu Li. He has always been cold and not close to women. This time, he asked me to help me find a place for a girl."

"He looked for me the day before yesterday, and he asked people to ask him yesterday. He was so interested in this girl, so I had to come to you as soon as possible, so as not to delay for a few more days, he entered the palace in a hurry."

The fourteenth prince said this jokingly, and added a cup of herbal tea for himself.

Gu Nuo'er's long eyelashes curled up, and now she has a sweet smile on her face.

"If cousin can find someone he likes, it's a great thing to be happy about, but doesn't Brother Fourteen know the origin of this girl?"

The fourteenth prince shook his head as he tasted the tea: "I haven't met, but I just heard from brother Xiu Li that she is a friend's younger sister and came to the capital to play this time."

"Brother Xiu Li also emphasized repeatedly that he and the girl are just an ordinary relationship."

"If my sister is curious, you should be able to see the girl the day you take them to the house."

Gu Nuo'er's dark and moist eyes turned, and she responded with a smile: "I know, just wrap this little job on me!"

After saying goodbye to the fourteenth prince, Gu Nuoer returned to the Qiushui Palace.

She asked Wan Xuan to help take down a mahogany box on the high pavilion.

In the box, there is a house deed that the second prince will send every year from her birth until now.

Gu Nuo'er took them out one by one and selected them.

Seeing this, Wan Xuan asked, "What the princess is looking for, you might as well tell the servants, and the servants can also help."

Gu Nuo'er lowered her head, looked at the description of the deed in her hand, and said, "I have to find a suitable house and lend it to my cousin's friend."

"The other party is a girl, so you can't live in too big. After all, too much attention may make the girls feel uncomfortable, so it's best to go in and out."

Wan Xuan heard the words and suggested, "But if you have a close relationship with Young Master Qiao, the princess can't choose to be in a busy street, lest they interact with each other and others will see and gossip."

The two masters and servants picked one, and finally Gu Nuoer chose one.

"Let's go here, Hairpin and Willow Alley, a house with one entry and one exit. It's secluded and quiet, and it's not eye-catching."

After it was settled, Gu Nuoer said to Wanxuan, "Sister Wanxuan, send someone to pass on a word to cousin."

"Let's say I invite him to see the mansion together tomorrow afternoon, but he has to bring his friend's sister!"
