The emperor finally let her go but they stand still in that position because He Yanyu is still feeling stiff. It's been a week since the last time she had seen the emperor and she had finally forgotten that the emperor of this empire is peculiar. He is somewhat sincere person but still she is having a hard time believing that since she feels like he is a lady-killer. She had heard about lady killers to Zi Yan since she doesn't want her to be a victim of one. Which a sad thing for the emperor.

She is still looking down when she saw a palm that was being offered to her which belong to the emperor. She was hesitating but still she reached that hand and held it. He did say that he will not force her to marry her and she had already agreed to his courtship.

She was then guided by the emperor near the lake and her eyes sparkled. She then once again run near the river while holding the emperor and because of that he was dragged by the woman. He cannot help at how adorable she is now. She then immediately sat but still she didn't let go that's why they were almost fell and the servants saw what happened and they went near the couple.

He Yanyu was shocked at what happened and she was extremely guilty but still she didn't let go of his hand.

\"Your Majesty are you alright?\" when they reached the two they had finally saw the woman's face that is on the verge of tears and they stared at her for a while and completely forgotten their emperor. What a lustrous jade eyes, gentle countenance and beautiful features but somehow they thought that they had seen her before.

The emperor saw his servants looking at his woman who's on the verge of crying and it is extremely adorable, he immediately hugged her to hide her and then comfort her, he then looked at his servants and they were extremely frightened at his look which made them retreat from their position.

\"Shh it's alright\" He said and then pat her back gently, she stopped her trembling but she doesn't have the courage to look at the emperor right now. The emperor knows that she is feeling extremely awkward and shy and he also can't himself since he had embraced her tightly which made them extremely close to each other and the woman in his arms is extremely fragrant and soft that is why he suddenly broke the embrace which surprised the princess but before she looked at him to asked what's wrong.

\"Do you want to ride a boat?\" He Yanyu is still feeling wronged but she set that aside and agreed to him since she is quite curious of the fish inside the river.

The Emperor then called Emperor Wei and ordered them to undocked the boat near the river.

The emperor helped He Yanyu to ride the small boat which can only fit to people. The whose paddling was the emperor which made the princess uneasy. The servants are also scared since they are worrying to much not just for their emperor but also to the beautiful princess with him which is also supposed to be their future empress.
