Feng Yili barged into the next room directly. However, when the door opened, only Qin Wencheng, Yu Xiaoxiao, and their servants were in the room. His eyes were filled with urgency and panic as he searched the room, but he did not find the person he was looking for.
‘I clearly heard the name Yu Yunxi earlier…’
“Who are you? How dare you barge in? Do you know whose room this is?” Qin Wencheng’s attendant berated, but he quickly fell silent when he saw Feng Yili’s cold gaze.
‘Who is he? Why is his aura even more terrifying than that of His Royal
Highness the Crown Prince?’
“Was there another person here earlier?” Feng Yili asked sternly.
Qin Wencheng narrowed his eyes and carefully sized up Feng Yili. “Who are you?”
Qin Wencheng was more astute than his attendant. He could tell that the man in front of him was not an ordinary person.
Feng Yili ignored Qin Wencheng as his expression grew gloomier.
At this time, Yu Xiaoxiao questioned shrilly, “Do you know who we are? How dare you?”
At this moment, Luo Xiuran hurried over and said, “Yili, let’s go. We must have heard wrongly.”
Luo Xiuran also heard Yu Yunxi’s name earlier, but he felt that they must have misheard. They were not probably disguised today, it would be troublesome if they were recognized. Seeing that Feng Yili still had no intention of leaving, he gritted his teeth and quickly pulled Feng Yili away.
Seeing that Feng Yili left without a word, Yu Xiaoxiao felt as though they had been looked down upon. She stood up angrily, wanting to chase after Feng Yili to deal with him.
At this moment, Qin Wencheng stopped Yu Xiaoxiao, saying, “Xiaoxiao, that man’s aura isn’t something ordinary people possess. I wonder when such a person appeared in the capital?”
After that, Qin Wencheng ordered, “Qin Sheng, go and investigate that man’s identity.”
“Yes.”
Yu Xiaoxiao sat down and said unhappily, “Brother Wencheng, could that man be in cahoots with that sl*t, Yu Yunxi?”
When Qin Wencheng heard Yu Yunxi’s name, his mood plummeted, and his expression darkened.
Just a moment before Feng Yili barged in, Yu Yunxi jumped out of the window with Meng Xia.
“That b*tch must have deliberately toyed with us! She made us give the food to the beggars and gave us a fake name! In the end, she even ran away!” Yu Xiaoxiao said resentfully.
Qin Wencheng’s expression was cold. Naturally, he also realized that Yu Yunxi had toyed with him earlier. In all these years, this was the first time someone dared to toy with him like that.
At this moment, a servant from the Qin family rushed into the room and said tremblingly, “Young Lord, the duke wants you to go back.”
Yu Xiaoxiao bit her lower lip before she asked, “Brother Wencheng, is Uncle Qin angry because of Fuman Restaurant?”
Qin Wencheng said, slightly angry, “I’ll go back. You don’t have to rush me!”
At the same time, Meng Xia followed Yu Yunxi. She felt extremely refreshed at this moment. When she saw how angry Qin Wencheng was at Yu Yunxi’s departure, she felt very satisfied. After all, the Qin family was not good and neither was Qin Wencheng.
‘He deserves it!’
Meng Xia suddenly thought of something and asked worriedly, “Eldest
Princess, will it affect you now that you told them your name?”
Yu Yunxi raised an eyebrow and asked in return, “The palace banquet is tomorrow night. They’ll find out eventually. What’s wrong if I reveal my name?”
As for whether the duo would be able to guess her identity in advance, that would depend on their abilities.
Meng Xia nodded. Suddenly, her attention was drawn to a small item from the stall next to her.
Yu Yunxi could not help but laugh when she saw this.
At the end of the day, Meng Xia was still a young girl. In order to manage the servants in the residence, she had no choice but to mature quickly.
“Do you like that?” Yu Yunxi asked with a smile.
“No, I don’t like it,” Meng Xia replied and quickly shook her head.
Yu Yunxi’s smile deepened. She said softly, “Alright, alright. Although you don’t like it, I like it. Can you accompany me to have a look?”
“Yes, Eldest Princess.”
Meng Xia knew that Yu Yunxi was doing this for her.
While the two stood in front of the stall, a low-key carriage passed by behind them.
Luo Xiuran sat in the carriage and looked at the cold and silent man sitting across from him a few times. Finally, he could not hold it in anymore and said, “Yili, I know you miss Yunxi, but the dead can’t be resurrected. It’s been three months. You should be able to see the truth clearly. We heard wrongly earlier. If I didn’t pull you away in time and you were recognized, it would’ve been troublesome…’
Luo Xiuran was going to continue nagging when Feng Yili said, “She’s not dead.”
Luo Xiuran:
‘Here we go again…
Over the past three months, every time Luo Xiuran spoke to Feng Yili about this, Feng Yili would only say repeatedly that Yu Yunxi was not dead.
‘Forget it. It’s good that he has some hope. Otherwise, I’m afraid that he’ll follow Yunxi…
“Alright, let’s not talk about this. Let’s talk about Qi Ye, the Imperial Preceptor. Is he really in the capital of Xichu? We’ve been investigating for several days, but we haven’t found any clues,” Luo Xiuran said seriously with a frown.
Feng Yili said coldly, “There’ll be a banquet in the imperial palace of Xichu tomorrow night. It’s for the Eldest Princess who just returned. There’ll be many people in attendance. If Qi Ye has a connection with the imperial family of Xichu, he should be at the banquet tomorrow.”
“Wait. Yili, don’t tell me you plan to attend the palace banquet tomorrow night?” Luo Xiuran asked in shock.
Luo Xiuran said anxiously, “Yili, calm down. Our identities can’t be exposed.”
If their identities were exposed in the imperial palace of Xichu, the consequences would be unimaginable.
“I’ll think of a way. Our identities won’t be exposed,” Feng Yili said expressionlessly.
Luo Xiuran sighed.
‘Forget it. Since he’s determined to go, I won’t be able to stop him. He’s determined to find Qi Ye to avenge Yunxi after all…’
Luo Xiuran stroked his chin and muttered curiously, “Speaking of which, the Eldest Princess of Xichu had never appeared in front of the people of Xichu. Now, there’s suddenly a palace banquet held for her… What else do we not know?”
Then, he asked Feng Yili, “Yili, aren’t you curious about the Eldest Princess?”
“No,” Feng Yili replied indifferently..
