Yui Mei and the rest of them left Hu’s house and returned to the mansion.

Li Min said he had work to do, so he headed to the harbor.

They went to the room that Li Min decided on after Yui Mei consulted him, and she left the exercise bike in it.

They also put the tricycle in a place overlooking the yard so that she could explain its origin later.

“Princess Pan, can I have a moment, please?”

The princess was having her tea when Yui Mei called her out, then they went to the exercise room.

“I requested to have this made so that you can exercise more effectively.
Lord Li Min introduced me to a craftsman.”

“Oh my, Lord Li Min did?”

 Princess Pan smiled when Yui Mei mentioned that Li Min had a hand in this.

She probably took it that he still held some interest in her, since he helped them, so she was elated.

‘Yup yup, you build your relationship by accumulating trivial experiences, just like this!’

Li Min would probably think that they were patronizing him if he knew that she purposely told Princess Pan about what he did.

However, it was a subtle, tricky problem.
Although it wasn’t good for them to meddle too much, they might also end up fanning their anxiety if they didn’t say a word.

Afterward, Yui Mei then explained how to use the exercise bike, and she also showed her the tricycle to her.
She told the princess that this was the model for her exercise bike.

“Oh my, this is such a rare sight! So, I’ll be the one to move this vehicle? It doesn’t need anyone else to pull it for it to move?”

Princess Pan was unexpectedly enthralled.

‘Hey, perhaps the princess likes novel things?’

She would probably thrive in this harbor city, where new items were always being introduced from different countries, because she wasn’t quick to judge or feel repulsed with things that she didn’t know anything about.

Princess Pan wanted to see how the tricycle operated, so Yui Mei obliged.

“Oh my, oh my, oh my! Can I also ride it!?”

“…It might be possible, if you practice.”

Princess Pan was truly enthusiastic like a little child, so Li Yong answered her question.

Yui Mei was relieved.

‘Alright, got her attention now!’

The princess was more open-minded than Li Yong, so Yui Mei immediately recommended the exercise bike to her.
Princess Pan slowly pedalled while Yui Mei, Li Yong, and her maid looked over her earnestly.

“This is so amazing!”

Princess Pan beamed, and her maid also nodded.

“Indeed, we could avoid the prying eyes of other people, and unwanted rumors, as well.”

‘As I thought, it’s hard to avoid being treated as an oddball, huh.’

No matter how motivated the person was, the opinions of other people around her wouldn’t change that easily.

That was why Yui Mei thought it would be better if the Princess regained her strength using this for the meantime.

***

Princess Pan was thoroughly absorbed in using the strange vehicle that Li Yong brought together with Yui Mei.

On that night —

“So, what should we do now…”

Li Yong muttered to himself as he stood in the yard.

They could already see the effects of Princess Pan’s medical treatment, or should they say rehabilitation to a certain extent.

The princess seemed determined and motivated to do her best in her own endeavors, so it could be said that they reached the point wherein they could be relieved from their duty.

However, they hadn’t solved the root problem of the princess’s illness yet.

The princess got dragged into the Huang Family’s feud in the first place.

They couldn’t just leave this situation be, because there was the possibility that she might fall into the same predicament once again.
They had to help so that her life might be easier.

 What did Yui Mei think of that?

Yui Mei was strangely drawn to the Princess.

She had gradually understood that she couldn’t really leave the oppressed and weak people alone, as was the case with Prince Youren.

She probably wouldn’t be able to go home with peace of mind if they didn’t make sure that Princess Pan was living peacefully.

‘Hm, in that case, then we have to destroy the root of the problem to a certain extent, huh.’

However, if Li Yong, who was considered as the representative of Ming Xian, interfered, then his master’s position would be jeopardized.

If he could do something about this without taking that risk…

Li Yong fretted.

“Hmpf, you seem troubled, kiddo.”

A male’s hoarse voice came from overhead.

“…!”

Li Yong abruptly raised his head, and his eyes widened in surprise.

“I heard from my subordinates that your group came.
However…”

Li Yong and Yui Mei were the only ones who openly interacted with the people of Kai, but a large number of Ming Xian’s guards were hiding in the shadows. 

Those shadow guards had relayed the information that there was another group working aside from them.

They had operated until this point without any contact from each other.

The emperor’s people had now contacted him.

That was good, but the problem was —

“I didn’t expect the big boss to go on an official trip.”
