Xie Lingqin nodded, looking at Yuwen Yao with some doubt, thinking to herself, "Given Yuwen Yao's jealous nature..."
"no."
Yuwen Yao's face was warm, his phoenix eyes slightly curved, "It should have been the Crown Prince of Western Xia who came, but he has seen you before, and his gaze towards you was too impure, so..."
"So you resorted to underhanded tactics and blocked their way?" Xie Lingqin hit the nail on the head.
Yuwen Yao nodded, "My wife is intelligent."
"Go away, you're shameless, there's no one else like you." Xie Lingqin turned her head, clearly colluding with Xuan Yuandu in a treacherous scheme, yet she still put on an innocent act of being uninvolved. There's no one else like her.
As Xie Lingqin pondered, she smiled again, looked towards the city gate, and silently mourned for the ghostly Western Xia prince.
A commotion erupted at the city gate.
Although they were far apart, Xie Lingqin could still see it from a distance, and Yu Qingyi's back stiffened.
Look ahead again.
He rode a tall horse, dressed in red, with bright red lips, a distinct profile, and a strong presence.
“Princess of Southern Qi, Nan Fenghuang, truly a heroine among women, so valiant and spirited. No wonder she was able to subdue Yu Qingyi.” Xie Lingqin smiled, but before her smile could fully spread, she felt a gaze from the horse at the city gate looking directly in her direction.
The owner of that gaze was none other than Nan Fenghuang.
"This Southern Phoenix is quite formidable; it actually knew I was here."
"It is said that Nan Fenghuang was exceptionally gifted from a young age, with extremely keen senses."
Yuwen Yao explained softly.
Xie Lingqin agreed wholeheartedly, and was neither afraid nor timid. Instead, she smiled slightly in the direction of Nan Fenghuang.
Nan Fenghuang's eyes flickered slightly, and she secretly greeted her before turning around to look behind her. "Royal brother, we've arrived. Prince Yi has come to pick us up personally. Would you like to get out of the carriage?"
"There's no need to trouble Prince Yi any further. I'll head to my lodgings now."
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingyi immediately bowed with relief, "Then, I will lead the princess and the second prince to the palace."
“No need, we want to stay at Jinhua Tower.” Nan Fenghuang waved her hand in refusal, looking at Yu Qingyi, her intensely dark eyes sparkling with an ambiguous tension.
Upon hearing this, Yu Qingyi was overjoyed and then pretended to look at the second prince of Southern Qi.
"When in Rome, do as the host says. I will follow Prince Yi's lead."
"Very well, I will now summon this Vice Minister Wang beside me..."
“Yu Qingyi, our relationship isn’t exactly that of strangers, is it? Can’t you personally escort me?” Nan Fenghuang raised her chin, her hands twisting the horse’s reins tightly.
"How could that be? I'll see you off, I'll see you off. And you, Minister Wang, will see the Crown Prince of Western Xia off?"
"I will obey the Crown Prince's will."
Wang Renyi would certainly not disobey Yu Qingyi.
So, with a chorus of voices rising and falling from the crowd, the group split into two groups.
"The second prince of Southern Qi didn't even get out of the carriage to chase after me."
Meanwhile, in the teahouse, Xie Lingqin frowned slightly. "The princess is riding a horse, but the prince is riding in a carriage alone. This Southern Qi is quite interesting."
“Let’s go. I think Yu Qingyi is waiting for us to rescue him.”
Xie Lingqin nodded, "I also want to meet this princess of Southern Qi."
As soon as Yuwen Yao and Xie Lingqin arrived at Jinhua Tower and entered, they saw Yu Qingyi and Nan Fenghuang fighting fiercely in the main hall.
Everyone inside and outside Jinhua Tower kept their distance.
The former second prince of Southern Qi was now wearing a hood and a plain white robe with silver patterns on the sleeves. He stood there watching the two fight, showing no intention of stopping them.
Yuanyang, standing to the side, looked slightly anxious, as if she wanted to persuade him but knew she couldn't.
"Crackling and popping..."
"Bang, bang..."
Jinhua Tower is now half destroyed.
The shopkeeper was so distressed that his face turned pale, and the waiters were all dumbfounded and dared not step forward.
How did they start fighting?
Finally, Xie Lingqin spoke up out of curiosity.
As soon as she spoke, the second prince of Southern Qi, who had been standing to the side, looked at her, but then looked away after a moment.
Yuanyang, who was standing nearby, immediately stepped forward to explain to Xie Lingqin.
"Miss Lingqin, it was because the princess accidentally stepped on Prince Yi's foot while going up the stairs, and then Prince Yi stepped on the princess's foot, so..."
Xie Lingqin listened, her starry eyes slightly startled.
This is……
They're probably looking for a fight.
"Alright, I think they played pretty well, let's go."
Xie Lingqin tugged at Yuwen Yao's sleeve, indicating that it was not appropriate for her to get involved in this matter.
"This is not the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion."
A rough voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
Xie Lingqin paused, looking towards the source of the sound.
In a corner of the hall, a person was looking in her direction.
This man was tall, with dark skin and rugged features; he was clearly not from Taipei Veterans General Hospital.
"I am Heibushui, from a barbarian tribe, and a subordinate of Prince Zhuidamu."
The person who came over had already introduced themselves.
