Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Shen Hezhi walked out of the carriage and asked, “Did the Prince Regent come here to send me off?”

Shen Hezhi was very Dale. and his body looked frail. It was as though a gust of wind could blow him away. He also coughed from time to time.

Yu Yunxi was very anxious when she saw this. However, when she wanted to step forward, Shen Hezhi’s gaze swept over, silently stopping her. With this, she could only suppress her urge to step forward.

Feng Yili said in an extremely cold tone, “I went to your temporary residence, the Yu Residence, and the Revival Hall, but I couldn’t find them…

‘Them?’

Yu Yunxi felt a little relieved when she heard this. It seemed like they had successfully distracted the Emperor; Qian Jin and the others had taken Yu Junjin away.

At this moment, Luo Xiuran spurred his horse forward and asked solemnly, “Also, Qian Qing’s leg is still injured. Why did she leave?”

Shen Hezhi’s flashed.

Qian Qing had followed Yu Junjin and left. According to Yu Yunxi, it was not safe for Jian Xin to stay in the capital so she had also left with the others. They were likely quite a distance away from the capital now. As long as Shen Hezhi and Yu Yunxi could leave successfully, they would meet up with the others.

“Maybe they went out to relax. They’re free and can go wherever they want. They don’t need to report to me nor do they need your consent,” Shen Hezhi replied expressionlessly. Then, he added, “Prince Regent, Young Marquis, if you want to find them, you should look for them in the capital. The war in Xinan is urgent. I’m sorry, but I don’t have time to waste talking to you here.”

“Lord Shen, I understand her very well. She won’t let you return alone. She must be in your entourage. If you hand her over, I’ll let you leave immediately,” Feng Yili said. His attitude was unyielding and unquestionable.

“Prince Regent, why are you doing this? You’ll only push her further away,” Shen Hezhi said. His light eyes surged with complicated emotions.

“I said that I’ll let you leave immediately if you hand her over,” Feng Yili said, remaining unmoved.

Shen Hezhi had no intention of backing down. “I really don’t have the person you’re looking for, Prince Regent.”

Both sides seemed to have their daggers drawn at this moment.

“In that case, you’ll have to return to the capital with me. You can only leave after I find her,” Feng Yili said stonily.

At this time, the guards from the Prince Regent’s Residence began to advance on the guards from the King of Xinan’s Residence.

Yu Yunxi, who was hidden in the crowd, looked at Feng Yili with eyes filled with disappointment.

‘Why did Feng Yili become like this in just two days? It’s as if he has become a different person…’

Shen Hezhi was so angry that he covered his chest and coughed. “Prince Regent, you used to be a general! Don’t you know what it’s like to be in a state of emergency during war?”

As though he did not hear Shen Hezhi, Feng Yili ordered expressionlessly, “Men, escort Lord Shen back to the city!”

Seeing that Jiang Ying and the others were about to make a move, Yu Yunxi could no longer hold back. She quickly got off her horse and walked to the front. She looked at Feng Yili and said angrily, “Feng Yili, I won’t leave. You don’t have to make things difficult for them.”

When the general guarding the city gates saw this, his expression changed to one of shock and fear. He patted his chest and said in relief, “Fortunately the Prince Regent rushed over. Otherwise, if the County Princess leaves the capital, the Emperor will be furious.”

Anyone could tell that the Emperor did not want Nanyue to succeed, but he also did not want to give up on the chance to take control of the King of Xinan’s Residence. That was why he wanted Yu Yunxi to stay behind. If she successfully fled back to Xinan, how could the Emperor not be furious?

“Feng Yili, your mother and your child hurt Junjin. We went to the military base to look for you. It’s fine if you didn’t want to see us, but…” ‘What? She came to look for me? Junjin was hurt?’

Feng Yili’s gaze darkened.

Just as Feng Yili was about to explain himself, Yu Yunxi continued to say, “I wrote to tell you that Xinan is in danger. You didn’t reply, and I can also tolerate that. However, why are you stopping us now? Feng Yili, I thought you’d at least be supportive of my return to Xinan. The people there treat me like family! When I didn’t have a home, they took me in. I can’t, and I won’t leave them in the lurch.”

Yu Yunxi’s eyes were slightly wet, and her voice trembled slightly when she spoke. She thought Feng Yili was different from the others in the imperial family, but she could not help but wonder if she was wrong.

Feng Yili’s aura changed immediately when he heard her words. His grip on the reins tightened.

Luo Xiuran was very anxious as he listened from the side. He quickly explained, “Yunxi, it’s not like that. We don’t mean any harm. Don’t be rash..

“Enough, Luo Xiuran,” Feng Yili said before Luo Xiuran finished speaking. He looked at Yu Yunxi with a complicated gaze as he slowly said, “Follow me back to the Prince Regent’s Residence. I’ll explain everything to you.”

Yu Yunxi took a deep breath. Then, she pretended to be calm before she turned around and said, “Brother, you leave first.”

Shen Hezhi’s expression was complicated. However, he also understood the meaning behind her words. After he took a deep breath, he said, “Alright, I’ll leave first. Take care of yourself.”

Yu Yunxi did not look away for a long time as she watched Shen Hezhi and the others from the King of Xinan’s Residence leave.

Feng Yili rode his horse over and reached out to pull her up.

“Yunxi, I…’

However, Yu Yunxi did not even spare him a glance. She turned around and walked back to the city step by step. Her back was straight, and there was an inexplicable air of loneliness about her.

“Yili,” Luo Xiuran called out worriedly.

‘This time… Did we do something wrong?’

Feng Yili pursed his lips as complicated emotions swirled in the depths of his dark eyes.

“Bring the soldiers back first,” Feng Yili said to Luo Xiuran before he dismounted from his horse.

He followed behind Yu Yunxi, maintaining a distance. He did not get too close to her nor did he fall behind.

“C-County Princess?”

When Yu Yunxi arrived at the Revival Hall, the few employees there were shocked to see her. After all, almost everyone had left. Even Doctor Li and his wife had left to study the disease. Only a few people stayed behind to look after the Revival Hall.

“All of you can return to what you were doing,” Yu Yunxi said calmly before returning to her room. 𝚋𝚎ｄｎｏｖ𝚎𝚕．𝚌ｏｍ

“Yunxi!”

“Let go,” Yu Yunxi said coldly.

“Let me explain myself,” Feng Yili said. He grabbed her shoulders, forcing her to face him.

‘Can it be explained?’

Yu Yunxi’s thick eyelashes fluttered slightly.

Feng Yili assumed she would ask about Feng Zixiu or the reason for his actions today.

Unexpectedly, she asked, “Can you return my mother’s warm jade to me?”

Feng Yili frowned when he heard this. He said unnaturally, “Didn’t we come to an agreement back then? If you help me detoxify my poison, I’ll return the warm jade to you.”

Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked meaningfully, “Alright. You don’t have to return it now, but can I look at it?”

Feng Yili’s expression turned even more unnatural.

Seeing this, Yu Yunxi realized that Feng Weizhou might not be lying to her. It might be true that Feng Yili had given her mother’s warm jade to someone else.

Yu Yunxi said with a sneer, “What’s wrong, Prince Regent? You look troubled. Don’t tell me that the warm jade is missing, or perhaps… you gave it to someone else?”

Feng Yili’s gaze flashed with urgency as he tightened his grip on her shoulders and asked, “Did someone say something to you?”

Feng Yili’s reaction only further confirmed Yu Yunxi’s speculation..
