Chapter 970: Still Relatives
Lin Hui had been keeping her head down since she sat down, her whole mind focused on how to talk to Xiliuyuan, when she suddenly heard Sang Yin's surprised voice.
Then she looked at Ye Qianning, not understanding why the Fifth Princess was so surprised.
"yes."
Ye Qianning nodded.
Sang Yin received the confirmation, and surprise flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, Xiang Minghou remembered: "No wonder I felt that he looked familiar when I first saw him. It turned out to be General Xiang."
When she was thirteen years old, she met Xiang Minghou once at the Loushan Academy. It was when he sent Ye Qianning to Loushan. At that time, she and Ye Qianning were not in the same academy, and she heard people talking about them all the time. When she returned to the academy during her break, she secretly looked at him at the academy gate.
Moreover, she was discovered by Xiang Minghou, and she still remembers clearly the look in Xiang Minghou's eyes at that time.
Xiang Minghou now has a beard and scars on his face, so he was not recognized at first glance.
"My father is no longer a general, and we are just ordinary citizens now." Ye Qianning said.
Helian Chen snorted at the fifth princess.
Lin Hui also seemed to have thought of the name Ye Qianning: "Are you the daughter of General Xiang who was stranded away back then?"
Ye Qianning looked at her indifferently without saying a word.
Lin Hui didn't know why she felt a little scared. Although she was still young at the time, everyone in Kyoto was talking about it. They said that she was dismembered and her body was made into fertilizer for flowers.
There are all kinds of rumors, but they are all pretty scary.
During that period, if the children in Kyoto City were disobedient, the adults would use Ye Qianning to scare them. If they were disobedient, they would be like Ye Qianning, and the ghost would take away their bones to make soup.
After hearing these words for a long time, they became a shadow in my childhood.
"You're not..." Sang Yin wanted to ask something but stopped herself in time, choking a little. "As long as you're fine now, I'm glad. Mother, grandparents, and uncle would be very happy if they knew you were fine."
Although she didn't know what the relationship between Ye Qianning and the Zhan family was, her death that year left her mother and the Zhan family devastated, and her grandmother missed her so much that she became ill for a long time.
When my mother named little twelfth child Nian Ning, my father had a big argument with her.
She didn't understand at the time, but later she realized that Nian Ning meant she missed Ye Qianning!
"Father Zhan and I have already met in Dayu City." Ye Qianning smiled faintly.
"Daddy Zhan? Is he my uncle?"
"Well, she is my godfather, so we are still relatives."
Sang Yin didn't know there was such a relationship. No wonder the Zhan family cared so much about her.
"Fifth Princess is older than you. If you don't mind, I will call you sister from now on."
"Okay, Sister Qianning has recognized me a long time ago, right?" Sang Yin, who had been weighed down by worries, finally felt relieved.
"Yeah, Du Yi said that."
“No wonder.”
Sang Yin was also very curious about why Du Yi followed her, but due to the occasion, she did not ask.
"Sister, there's no need to save money for your sister in Bermuda."
Sang Yin nodded.
Lin Hui secretly clenched her fingers, feeling somewhat regretful. If she had known that she would be rescued, she would never have run away. The Fifth Princess had not spoken to her since just now.
She needed to think about how to calm the Fifth Princess down.
"Xi Liuyuan, you still said that you are not here to chase Ye Qianning?" After seeing Ye Qianning, Helian Chen became unfriendly to those who had a connection with him back then.
Lin Hui was surprised. Would Prince Xiyan chase after Ye Qianning?
"Young Prince, what you said is inappropriate." Xiliuyuan raised his eyes and said lightly.
"Others may not know, but I know it. I sat with her as soon as I entered Bermuda. Doesn't that mean I recognized her a long time ago?" Helian Chen looked a little alert.
"It's confirmed." Xiliuyuan did not deny it.
Helian Chen frowned upon hearing this: "Ye Qianning, listen to me, he must have some plans, otherwise why would he keep staring at you?"
"The young prince has misunderstood." Ye Qianning was helpless.
"It's not a misunderstanding. I didn't even recognize your disguised face, but he recognized you the moment he came in. He must have someone secretly watching you."
"I met the Prince of Xiyan in Dayu City."
"We've seen that too."
"I mean, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has seen this face of mine."
"Me too..." Helian Chen was about to retort, staring at his face: "Dayucheng, you also changed your appearance?"
Ye Qianning nodded.
Helian Chen was silent for a moment, thinking that Ye Qianning had not changed her appearance when he met her. It turned out that she had been wearing this face before meeting him. His mood couldn't help but improve.
Sang Yin understood the meaning behind their conversation and looked at them for a while, "Sister Qian Ning can disguise herself?"
"Yes, I learned it from a Taoist priest overseas."
"Is it the crazy Taoist who kidnapped my sister back then?" Sang Yin had heard of it.
"Yes, he is my savior."
"When the Taoist priest left those words, everyone in Kyoto thought you had met with an accident. Now that you are fine and back to Uncle Xiang..., it's great." After Sang Yin grew up, every time she took Nian Ning to her grandparents' house, her grandparents would hold Nian Ning and chatter to her, their eyes red every time.
Later, when she grew up, she also looked into what happened and more or less understood it all.
Lin Hui also kept staring at Ye Qianning. She had an unattractive appearance. Although she had disguised herself, she was a fat girl back then and her appearance was not much better.
What concerned her was what was the relationship between Ye Qianning and Prince Xiyan?
"Ms. Ye, do you still remember me?" Lin Hui asked.
Ye Qianning looked towards her.
"We met Miss Ye when we were young." Lin Hui said again.
"Remember."
"There was some chaos back then. If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince protecting me, Hui'er wouldn't have dared to think about the consequences." Lin Hui said, looking towards Xi Liuyuan with gratitude: "Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Hui'er thanks His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for saving me that day. I will definitely repay this kindness."
Ye Qianning supported his head with his little hands, and didn't mind being treated as a footstool by Lin Hui. He watched the show with great interest.
Sang Yin frowned, not knowing what Lin Hui was going to say next.
Helian Chen stared at that place with a look that showed that they were having trouble, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was thinking about something.
"What else did Miss Lin say?" Xiliuyuan said coldly.
"Have you forgotten, Your Highness? When Hui'er got lost, she met Your Highness, who saved her. On the way, you also encountered Miss Ye and Prime Minister Gao arguing."
"Really? This prince doesn't remember."
"Hui'er, remember, Dad has taught you since you were young that you should repay a drop of kindness with a spring. Hui'er will never forget the kindness of His Highness." Lin Hui looked solemn.
"How do you repay someone with a spring of gratitude?" Ye Qianning suddenly asked.
Lin Hui was slightly stunned.
"How else can I report it? I am most familiar with this kind of plot. I will definitely pledge my love to you." Helian Chen continued.
Ye Qianning turned to look at him in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Helian Chen asked puzzledly.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could Miss Lin be such a vulgar person?"
"That's what it says in the storybook."
"Look less."
Ye Qianning also felt that Lin Hui had this intention...
But who is Xiliuyuan?
She was afraid that the tea she had would spill out.
