led Feng Lingxi down to kneel. Liu shi hastily led a group of people down to kneel and accept the imperial decree."By imperial decree, the Emperor proclaims: The honorable daughter of the General's m...Wind Lingxi was held by Huangfu Qingyun, feeling his trembling body. She raised her hand, wanting to pat his back, but hesitated.
For some reason, she didn't want to have too close a touch with Huangfu Qingyun. She asked Xiaoli, and Xiaoli said it might be because she didn't like Huangfu Qingyun that she felt this way.
Xiao Li said that if she liked someone, seeing him would make her heart especially happy. If she couldn't see him, she would feel sad and down. When he was around, she wanted to stick closer to him. When he wasn't, she would think about him. But she was unsure, not knowing if she really liked him or not.
"Your Highness, do you like me"
Feng Ling Xi asked out the confusion in her heart, and she felt Huang Pu Qing Yun's body stiffen. She wanted to push him away, but Huang Pu Qing Yun hugged her even tighter.
"Xier, I like you, can't you see"
"I didn't see it."
Feng Lingxi's confession made Huangfu Qingyun feel uncomfortable. Hearing her say, "However, Xiaoli told me that when you like someone, I think you seem to like me."
Huangfu Qingyun's smile widened at the corner of his lips, satisfied.
Although she has amnesia, she's not stupid. She understands all of this. She will see his future efforts and fall in love with him.
What did she say to you
Feng Ling Xi didn't hide it and blurted it out. Huang Fu Qing Yun pushed her away, looking into her conflicted eyes, "Then what about you Do you like me"
When I can't see you, I think of you when I have something on my mind, but I don't always think about you. I don't even know if what Xiaoli said is true about liking you.
"Yu'er, this is what it means to like someone."
"Huangfu Qingyun held her hand and, looking at her confused eyes, said softly, 'In the future, follow your heart and feel with all your being how it feels to be with me. Don't suppress your emotions.' "
"But I resist your embrace," Xiaoli said. "That's why I don't like you."
Huangpu Qingyun's smile gradually disappeared. Feng Lingxi, seeing her like this, unconsciously reached out and tugged at his sleeve, asking in a low voice, "Your Highness, are you angry"
Coming to her senses, Feng Lingxi's worried gaze met Huangpu Qingyun's. He shook his head. "How could I be angry with you You don't spend much time with me now. Once you're with me for a longer time, you won't reject me."
"Okay."
Huangfu Qingyun looked at the smile on her face, reached out and touched it, met her gaze, and both of them laughed brightly like flowers.
"By the way, Father told me today that we'll have some distinguished guests coming in a few days. I'll take you to meet them, okay"
"Guest"
Feng Lingxi's eyes lit up. "Who is it"
"Father didn't say, but it sounded like a very important guest."
"Wouldn't you tell me"
Feng Lingxi curled her lips, "How can your father be like a child"
Originally, Huangfu Qingyun was still a little downcast. Seeing Feng Lingxi's cute actions, she couldn't help but smile and say, "You, you're not even afraid of your father."
"Your father is such a good person, he wouldn't blame me."
Feng Ling Xi's brilliant smile became even brighter, Huang Fu Qing Yun smiled indulgently, "You really can't do anything about you."
"Your Highness, how many days are there until then"
Feng Lingxi hurriedly asked, "Does the distinguished guest have any requirements for etiquette You can find someone to teach me so that when we go, we won't embarrass you."
Hearing this, Huangfu Qingyun felt a pang of sympathy. He grasped her arms and looked at her with seriousness, "You don't have to learn anything. Just staying the way you are is perfect. In my eyes, you are one of a kind and don't need any changes."
Now, seeing her like this, Huangfu Qingyun felt good. Recovery of memories, let it happen naturally. He couldn't bear to see her in distress or unhappy. What he wanted was a happy Xi'er, even if she was the princess of the Great Yuan Dynasty, he wasn't afraid. Now, she was just Xi'er he rescued, a girl who fell off a cliff, a Yao tribe saintess betrothed to him.
Wind Lingxi charged towards Huangfu Qingyun with a brilliant smile, "Alright, then I won't change anything. I'll just be myself, and I won't learn anything else."
"Xiao Li, let's go out and play."
Feng Lingxi shouted, Xiao Li walked in, looked at Huangfu Qingyun, and walked towards Feng Lingxi.
"Miss."
"Let's go to the market for a walk while it's still early. It'll be too hot later."
Xiao Li glanced at Huangfu Qingyun. Seeing him nod, she responded. Huangfu Qingyun looked at Feng Lingxi's smile on her face, "Xi'er, you and Xiao Li go, I will send someone to protect you. I still have to enter the palace. My father wants to discuss something with me."
"Then you go, Xiao Li, let's go."
Feng Lingxi pulled Xiao Li's hand and quickly left the Prince's Mansion, the worry in her heart disappearing instantly.
Huangfu Qingyun looked at her movements, his eyes full of love. But his attitude towards her was helpless.
"Your Highness, is she really the Saintess of the Yao Clan"
The guard beside Huangfu Qingyun asked out his confusion, "Why does my subordinate feel that it's not like at all"
"The Zi Xing is a symbol of her status, and moreover, Father Emperor also said that Xi'er resembles the Holy Master in appearance. A few days ago when I learned of her identity, I sent people to investigate, and it completely matched. She is the Princess Consort betrothed to my finger by my palace, the Holy Maiden of Yao clan."
"It was just heard from subordinates that the Holy Lord of the Yao Clan had an accident on his way back to the Hui Clan and is still missing."
Huangfu Qingyun raised an eyebrow, "You send someone to check on the current situation of the Holy Lord, keep it secret and make sure no one finds out, lest things get complicated."
"Yes."
If Xi'er's mother were from the Hui people, she would surely go to the Chao Dynasty soon. According to what Father and Mother said, the Yao people would certainly come to fulfill the agreement between the Yao people and the Chao Dynasty. At that time, he would be able to know how Xi'er's engagement with him would be handled.
A figure dashed into the Yao Clan Temple and reported, "Saint Master, Yao Feifei and others escaped from the Yao Clan, killing dozens of our clan brothers."
Yǎo Wànyíng furrowed her brows, "How could they possibly kill their way out of the Yáo Clan They're only a small group."
"Someone is responding outside, our Yao clan's entrance has been discovered."
Yǎo Wǎnyìng narrowed her eyes, "What a Yao Qing, actually colluding with outsiders, daring to betray the Yao clan, I really shouldn't have kept them."
"My lady, Yao Feifei has left the Yao Clan. It's too late to catch her now. What matters most is to secure the entrance first, so that Yao Feifei doesn't bring enemies into the Yao Clan and take us by surprise."
"Since the Yao clan entrance has been discovered, it is no longer an entrance. Pass down my order, immediately change the Yao clan entrance and forbid any Yao clan members from entering or leaving. For those Yao clan members outside, exert all efforts to track down the whereabouts of Yao Feifei and others. Once their whereabouts are known, report it immediately."
Yes!
Dugu Cheng looked at Yao Wan Ying's cold eyes and stood up, "Madam, what do you need us to do"ixuan watched Tian Xiaomi avoiding his touch. Her pale, bloodless face made him ache with sympathy. Looking at her flat stomach, his heart felt like it was being pierced by needles, a pain so intense...
