"Your Highness, please take a seat."
Yuan Xi'ao stood still, his eyes as cold as ice as he looked around the hall, and said:
"Prince Ling, when did I, Han Lan, come? Why didn't my father mention me?"
Ling Yu smiled calmly and said:
"I heard that the Crown Prince was badly defeated in the Battle of Fencheng..."
He paused at this point, and looked at Yuan Xi'ao with a stern expression, and continued:
"Now that Longyin possesses such a powerful weapon, I cannot help but wonder whether Longyin will one day expand westward and encroach upon the territory of Daqing.
He is a talented person and has come to visit without any reason, hoping to meet with the prince for a detailed discussion.
I never thought that before I could deliver the invitation to the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came to see me first.
Isn’t this a coincidence?”
Yuan Xi'ao heard this, and his dark expression finally softened a bit, and he said:
"It's a good idea, Lord Ling. Let's discuss it in detail tomorrow.
However, today two important fugitives escaped from the imperial court, and the court had to investigate the people in the city door to door.
Lord Ling, I'm sorry."
After he finished speaking, he waved to the guards behind him, but suddenly heard Ling Yu sneer:
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is so majestic. I came here with sincerity, but I didn't expect to be insulted like this.
I've heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very arrogant and it seems that he disdains to join forces with Daqing.
Well, go ahead and search. I will return to Daqing early tomorrow morning."
An incense stick of time later, Si Jinxing and Li Qingyang were having dinner when they heard footsteps outside the door.
The maid outside the door lifted the door curtain and said:
"Greetings to the master."
Si Jinxing looked in the direction of the voice and saw Ling Yu, dressed in a moon-white robe, striding into the room.
He was still the same as when we first met, with picturesque eyebrows, eyes like stars, gentle, elegant and noble.
She quickly stood up, clasped her fists and said in thanks:
"Meet Master Lingyu. Thanks to you today, I was able to escape from that man's pursuit."
Ling Yu looked at the young woman in front of him, as if time had stopped.
When he first met her more than half a year ago, she had her face covered with a veil, revealing only a pair of elf-like eyes.
He immediately memorized her eyes, so much so that he recognized her at a glance in Wuning Mansion a few days ago.
At this moment, looking at her so closely, I felt as if there was something unclear spreading in my heart.
He smiled and said, "Miss Si's words are too much. It's just a small favor, not worth mentioning."
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing pursed her lips and smiled. This was what he said last time.
She glanced at Li Qingyang beside her and introduced:
"Master Lingyu, this is Li Qingyang. Master Li, this is Master Lingyu."
When Ling Yu heard this, the smile on his face deepened.
What kind of introduction is this? This Miss Si is really on guard!
After the meal, Ling Yu said:
"Tomorrow I will go to the Prince's Mansion, and then I will take you out of the city."
