Lin Feilu was still young and dressed as a cute child, whereas Lin Nianzhi wore a simple dress that exuded the appearance of a youthful teen. Although the two were wearing ordinary clothes, they could not mask their natural noble temperament. The guards trailed them from a distance from left to right wherever they went, so even the common folk could tell at a glance that they were probably some Young Ladies of some rich family who came out shopping.

The bustling streets of the ancient times were exactly as she imagined. The wide and tiled streets were lined with dozens of shops and vendors. The crowds were bustling and there were carriages coming to and fro. Some sellers were shouting, attracting the crowds attention in an attempt to tempt some buyers and some were making ends meet through entertainment. There were people who trained their animals with circus-like tricks as well, and neither aspect was any less than that of Sanlitun(2).

Lin Feilu was almost moved to tears when she was reminded of the sea of people and the lively atmosphere, completely forgetting that they had a purpose in leaving the palace.

Lin Nianzhi thought that the Little Fifth Princess was so excited because it was the first time she went out of the palace to see these sights. The Eldest Imperial Princess thought that it was still early anyways, so she was not in a hurry to go to the Rites Residence and take her around happily.

Lin Feilu deliberately kept her stomach relatively empty before leaving the palace just to eat all the street foods and alley delicacies of the ancient times. She held Lin Nianzhis hand, feeling that she hadnt been so happy for a long time.

Although they ate all morning and were not hungry at all, the two still went to the most expensive restaurant in the upper city for lunch during noon.

Lin Nianzhi was going to the private room, but Lin Feilu pointed to the open space by the window and said, Elder sister (3), I want to sit there.

(T/N: Theyre kind of undercover, so they wont address each other as royals here)

Lin Nianzhi asked strangely, The window is very windy and theres a bunch of dust. Thats where people come and go; whats there to sit on?

Lin Feilu: Generally, people with a certain status would sit at that spot.

For example, a hero of the righteous way or a leader of the demonic ways; mm!

Lin Nianzhi gave her a speechless look, but she complied and sat there. After calling for the waiter, she ordered a single item of everything that the restaurant had to offer.

The two guards dutifully stood by as they ate. Whenever they saw a passer-by looking at the Princesses, the guards would glare back with a such vicious look that made everyone anxious and afraid to look over and cower in fear.

Lin Feilu was not hungry, so she ate rather leisurely. The window seat was a bit cold, but the view was good and the street scene downstairs was unobstructed. For example, when she casually glanced down, she saw a few bully-looking men robbing civilian women.

Hmm? Robbing civilian women?

She knew it! Something was bound to happen as long as someone sat here!

If it was a righteous hero sitting here at this time, they would have shouted angrily, Stop! Its not reasonable in broad daylight!, and then jump out of the window and fly down. They would knock out the bullies with two or three epic moves, as well.

If it was a demonic sect leader sitting at this time, they would sneer and flick the chopsticks in his hand as a hidden weapon projectile. Then, they would knock down all the bullies and then listen to the panicked screams below while continuing to sip wine as if nothing had happened.

But currently, she was the one seated at that spot.
