Ye Siheng's eyes flickered; he immediately set aside his documents and left the study. It was already June, and the weather was scorching hot. As soon as he stepped outside, a wave of heat greeted him.
Nanli had just returned from outside, her forehead glistening with sweat, and her cheeks flushed. Seeing Ye Siheng in the corridor, she flashed a radiant smile, "Why didn't you go to the palace today?"
For the past two days, he seemed to have more free time. Ye Siheng took out a handkerchief, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and led her into the main house. "My elder brother's health has slightly improved, so he can handle some state affairs. I'm not as busy now."
Qing Feng, who was standing by, looked embarrassed. It was clear that he stayed home to keep an eye on the princess and dispel any doubts she might have.
Rainbow had already brought in the ice, and with the fans, a cool breeze swept through the room. Chunbao then brought in some sour plum soup to help Nanli cool off.
