Capítulo 284: Chapter 28 (2 updates)_1

Hua Yan had slept from the afternoon until the next morning. When she opened her eyes, it was already dimly lit outside. Yun Chi was nowhere to be seen by her side; the bedding was neat, without any sign of someone having lain down. She slowly sat up, put on her clothes, and got out of bed.

Caiqing, hearing movement, called out softly from outside the door, "Crown Princess Consort, have you awakened?"

Hua Yan hummed in response and came to the door. She opened it and breathed in the fresh morning air, then asked Caiqing, "Where is the Crown Prince? Did he not sleep all night? Where did he go?"

Caiqing nodded and said in a low voice, "His Highness the Crown Prince went to Huazhuo Pavilion last night. I heard from Lady Qiuyue that he initially played three rounds of chess with Young Master Hua Zhuo, and afterward, the two of them competed in martial arts and swordsmanship. They went back and forth sparring all night and seem to be still not satisfied."
