“King of Youshan, you..
Yu Yunxi was prepared to scold Feng Yili, but he raised his hand and stroked her head as though he was coaxing a child as he said, “I’ll be back soon. Don’t worry about me.”
“I’m not worried about you!” Yu Yunxi through gritted teeth.
Feng Yili let out a low chuckle and said, “Alright, alright, you’re not worried about me. However, I’m worried about you. Is that okay?”
Yu Yunxi:
Yu Yunxi looked at Feng Yili with a complicated expression and asked, “King of Youshan, what do you mean by this?”
He was completely different from the rumors, and he often took liberties with her. She really did not understand him.
Feng Yili looked at Yu Yunxi with a burning gaze as he said in a deep voice,
“The King of Youshan’s Residence lacks a lady of the house…”
‘W-what? Is he saying that he wants to marry me?’
Yu Yunxi’s heart skipped a beat. When she regained her senses, she said unnaturally, “If the King of Youshan is lacking someone to manage your residence for you, I’m sure you’ll be able to find someone. I believe many women in the country covet that position…”
Yu Yunxi assumed that Feng Yili was only looking for someone to manage his residence for him so he had his eyes on her. For some reason, she felt very uncomfortable when she thought about this.
“I want a wife not because I want her to manage my residence for me. I want a wife so I can warm her bed when the weather is cold…” Feng Yili said hoarsely. Then, he added, “Be good. You’re… really important to me so you must protect yourself. ”
After saying that, Feng Yili stared at Yu Yunxi intently for a moment before he turned around and mounted his horse, leaving the city in a hurry. Clearly, he had something very important to attend to.
Yu Yunxi’s heart thumped loudly as she watched Feng Yili leave. She raised her hand and touched her chest. The empty feeling she had been feeling for months seemed to have vanished. Her three months of depression also seemed to have vanished.
‘No, wait. Who the hell is he exactly?’
Yu Yunxi looked in the direction where Feng Yili had left again. This time, his figure could no longer be seen. Her eyes were slightly wet as she asked in a trembling voice, “Meng Xia, did I know the King of Youshan before?”
Meng Xia had just come out not long ago so she was unaware of what had transpired between Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili. She was confused when she heard Yu Yunxi’s question, and when she regained her senses, she shook her head and replied, “No, Eldest Princess, I don’t think you knew him before..”
“Then is it possible that he’s not the King of Youshan at all?” Yu Yunxi muttered in a low voice, still in a daze.
“What?”
“It’s nothing. Let’s return to the Yu Residence first,” Yu Yunxi said lightly.
After Yu Yunxi got into the carriage, she felt that it was very cold and cheerless. At this moment, she finally recalled that there was another person. She called out, asking, “Meng Xia, is Luo Xiuran… Is Young Marquis Luo still there?” Meng Xia looked at the person next to her.
Luo Xiuran looked very gloomy because of Feng Yili’s sudden departure.
“Yes, Eldest Princess. He’s still here.”
“Invite him into the carriage,” Yu Yunxi said flatly.
“Yes, Eldest Princess.’
Meng Xia walked toward Luo Xiuran and said, “Your Marquis Luo, the Eldest Princess invites you into the carriage.”
‘Yunxi?’
Luo Xiuran frowned slightly. He could not figure out Yu Yunxi’s intentions.
However, he did not hesitate and climbed into the carriage.
In the spacious carriage.
Although it was dark outside, the carriage that was illuminated by a huge night pearl was very bright.
A boiling pot of tea resting on a stove stood on a table.
Luo Xiuran asked, inexplicably nervous, “Yun… Eldest Princess, what’s the matter?”
Yu Yunxi was not in a hurry to answer Luo Xiuran. She poured a cup of tea for him and for herself. She looked at him silently for a long time after that before she finally asked, “Young Marquis Luo, you were born and raised in Tianxia,
right?”
Luo Xiuran’s smile froze.
‘Why is she suddenly asking about this?’
“Y-yes,” Luo Xiuran replied stiffly. This was the only word he could manage.
Yu Yunxi picked up her teacup and carefully sipped the tea. Then, she asked, pretending to be casual, “Then how do you know the King of Youshan?”
Luo Xiuran’s expression grew even more unnatural. He coughed lightly before he responded, “I was traveling the world a few years ago. That was when I got to know the King of Youshan.”
“Is that so?” Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow. It was difficult to tell if she believed
Luo Xiuran or not. After a long while, she asked again, “What kind of place is Tianxia?”
Luo Xiuran seemed to have come back to life when he heard this question. He quickly raised his head and puffed out his chest as he said excitedly, “Tianxia is a country with beautiful scenery and simple people. The capital is very lively.
Although Xichu is prosperous, it’s still different…”
Yu Yunxi took another sip of tea and murmured, “Is that so? If I have the chance, I really want to have a look…’
Luo Xiuran finally sensed that something was amiss.
‘Yunxi’s mood seems a little… strange… Why did she suddenly ask me about Tianxia?’
Yu Yunxi smiled at Luo Xiuran and asked again, “I also heard that you and the Prince Regent of Tianxia are life-and-death friends… Is that true?”
Luo Xiuran:
‘I was right. Something is definitely wrong…’
“Then can you tell me what kind of person he is?” Yu Yunxi asked, maintaining a careless smile on her face.
“Of course, of course. Yili is the second most handsome man in Tianxia. The most handsome man in Tian Xia is naturally me. He is highly skilled in martial arts. When he was in his teens, he had already made his enemies tremble in fear on the battlefield. Such a person would naturally make the Emperor feel wary… But that’s all in the past. The Emperor doesn’t dare to do anything to Yili now. If you… If his Princess Consort were around, he would be the happiest person in the world now…”
As Luo Xiuran spoke, his voice became more and more desolate.
‘Princess Consort?’
Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed briefly. Then, she asked probingly, “Young Marquis
Luo, do you mean that Tianxia’s Princess Regent has passed away?”
Luo Xiuran denied it immediately. “Of course not! They’re just separated for some reason.”
Luo Xiuran still wanted to say more, but he was not sure if it would affect Feng
Yili and Yu Yunxi’s relationship. In the end, he only asked weakly, “Eldest
Princess, do you still have any questions for me?”
“No,” Yu Yunxi replied before she said to Meng Xia, “Meng Xia, go to the King of Youshan’s Residence first. We’ll send Young Marquis Luo back first..”
