Ye Pianran didn't react for a moment and stared blankly at Chunyu Yang.

Recalling the scene when she became Liu Lulu's apprentice, Chunyu Yang's eyes revealed a hint of a smile, and he said, "Not leaving?"

Ye Pianran snapped out of her daze, lowered her head, and said with a slight blush on her cheeks, "I...can't ride a horse."

As expected of a pampered young lady raised in the capital. Chunyu Yang extended his hand to Ye Pianran and said calmly, "Come on up."

Sensing the disappointment in his tone, Ye Pianran felt a pang of guilt and took a step back to avoid his hand. But she immediately realized that her actions were too disrespectful and quickly lowered her head, saying, "My clothes are torn, please wait a moment, Your Highness."

Before Chunyu Yang could answer, Ye Pianran pulled Lingyi back to the carriage.

Pulling the carriage curtain shut to shut out the people outside, Ye Pianran gritted her teeth in frustration. She'd really lost her mind; why was she arguing with the Northern Martial King? He probably didn't even consider her a threat.

Lingyi chuckled when she saw her like this.

Ye Pianran rolled her eyes at her and said, "What are you laughing at? What's so funny? You threw away my medical book, and I haven't even settled the score with you yet."

"Yes, yes, yes, Lingyi will go and retrieve the medical books for Miss in a moment." Lingyi covered her mouth and laughed.

"Alright!" Ye Pianran coughed twice and said, "Didn't I tell you to secretly prepare an extra set of clothes? Check if the things are still in the car?"

Lingyi rummaged around in the car for a moment, then exclaimed with delight, "It's here!"

Before heading to the banquet at Qionglin Garden, Ye Pianran had Lingyi prepare an extra set of clothes to guard against any sabotage. Unexpectedly, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet hadn't even started yet, but it was already coming in handy.

As Ye Pianran changed out of the clothes Gongsun Yuan had personally dressed her in, her heart ached with bitterness. Before leaving home, she had promised her mother that she would return unharmed. If it hadn't been for Chunyu Yang's rescue, she and her mother would probably be separated forever.

No, being separated from her forever is too mild. I'm afraid the person behind her being here will ruin her reputation even more thoroughly after she dies.

A cold glint flashed in Ye Pianran's eyes. If she found out who had set this trap, she would make that person pay tenfold!

After changing her clothes and retying her hair, Ye Pianran, with Lingyi's help, stepped out of the carriage again.

She changed into an apricot-colored feather gauze dress with floral patterns, and a red jade tassel sash hanging at her waist. Although it was not as flamboyant and luxurious as the previous dress, it perfectly outlined her slender and exquisite figure. The red cherry blossom hairpin in her hair made her hair look like ink splashed on the ground and her skin as white as snow.

To cover the "scars" on her face, she put her veil back on, revealing only her bright, sparkling eyes and delicate eyebrows. With her head bowed and eyes lowered, she was as charming and beautiful as a hibiscus or crabapple blossom in spring.

Even Chunyu Yang, who always prided himself on his calm and collected nature, was somewhat mesmerized by the sight.

Ye Pianran, having lost her initial shyness, handed her hand to Chunyu Yang and said frankly and firmly, "Your Highness, I beg you."

Chunyu Yang's eyes darkened, and he said softly, "Excuse me," before gently pulling her onto the horse and sitting her in front of him.

Ye Pianran looked at Lingyi on the ground with some concern and asked, "Lingyi, what are you going to do?"

Just as Lingyi was about to speak, Chunyu Yang blew a melodious and high-pitched whistle. A moment later, the black-clad guard who had previously dealt with the lecherous man reappeared before them.

"Send this young lady back to the Marquis of Anshi's residence," Chunyu Yang ordered. After saying that, he spurred his horse and galloped down the mountain with Ye Pianran in tow.
