437 Shocked (2)

Xuanyuan Ce looked disappointed for a moment before saying, “I was rude.”

Ji Yunxi smiled and did not continue this topic. She turned around and gave him a few more detailed instructions before leaving.

Chu Feng received Xuanyuan Ce’s instructions and sent her out of the courtyard.

As soon as she left the courtyard, she b.u.mped into Xuanyuan Ye, who had come to pay his respects.

“Princess.” Chu Feng cupped his hands and bowed.

Xuanyuan Ye stopped in her tracks. Her gaze bypa.s.sed Chu Feng and landed on a girl in white with a veil.

Although her appearance could not be seen clearly, just from her slightly raised eyes, it was obvious that she was outstanding.

Xuanyuan Ye subconsciously tightened her grip. The girl who could not be seen clearly in the dream last night also became clear at this moment.

Chu Feng noticed her gaze and thought that the person behind her might also be His Highness’s daughter. Moreover, she was valued by His Highness.

He moved his feet subtly to block Xuanyuan Ye’s vision and explained, “Miss Ji was sent by the emperor of Great Xia to treat His Highness.”

Xuanyuan Ye saw Chu Feng’s small action and inexplicably overlapped with the dream, making her feel even more upset. She stabilized her mind and nodded. “I’m here to pay my respects to Father.”

Chu Feng looked a little troubled.

He had been by His Highness’s side for so many years, so it was impossible for him not to know his att.i.tude towards the princess consort and her daughter. He was no different from a stranger.

In the past, even if His Highness returned to Phoenix City, these two people would not approach him, let alone greet him. What was wrong with them today?

Chu Feng cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to show it. He said, “Your Highness, you haven’t eaten breakfast yet. Why don’t you…”

Xuanyuan Ye interrupted him. “I’ll leave after paying my respects. It won’t take up too much of Father’s time.”

Chu Feng was speechless.

Could it be that he was being too tactful? But he couldn’t just say that His Highness might not want to see her.

Sensing that the atmosphere was a little off, Ji Yunxi said at the right time, “Lord Chu, let’s part here. I can go back alone.”

“Wait.” Xuanyuan Ye suddenly stopped him.

Ji Yunxi stood still and looked back at her. Their eyes met, and there was a faint smell of gunpowder in the air.

Chu Feng thought to himself, “This is bad.”

Xuanyuan Ye was angered by her gaze and sneered. “You’re just a doctor. Why didn’t you bow when you saw me? Is this the etiquette of your Great Xia?”

She was wrong. So what if her father did not like her? She was still the most respected princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.

No one could come and ruin this. No one could s.n.a.t.c.h her things away.

Mo Yu frowned unhappily. She was about to move when Ji Yunxi stopped her.

She looked at Xuanyuan Ye with a teasing gaze and slowly bowed. “Greetings, Princess.”

Xuanyuan Ye clenched her fists. The other party had clearly bowed according to her request, but she did not feel happy at all.

“Why are you all standing here? Are you waiting for me?” A sloppy voice sounded.

Chu Feng heaved a sigh of relief when he saw who it was.

Xuanyuan Ziming seemed to not sense anything wrong with the atmosphere at all. He walked up to Ji Yunxi and sized her up. “Eh, it’s you. Why are you here?”

Chu Feng could only introduce them again.

Xuanyuan Ziming looked enlightened and asked, “Is my imperial uncle alright?”

Ji Yunxi shook her head. “His Highness is fine.”

“I knew it. Imperial Uncle has always been in good health. How can he fall just like that?” Xuanyuan Ziming said matter-of-factly and waved his hand. “If there’s nothing else, you can leave first.”

Ji Yunxi bowed and turned to leave.

Xuanyuan Ye kicked Xuanyuan Ziming unhappily, but she did not dare to flare up because this was the courtyard where Xuanyuan Ce lived.

“Why? Are you mesmerized by my beauty so early in the morning? I’m really sorry. I’m your cousin. It’s destined to be impossible between us.” Xuanyuan Ziming rubbed his chin in distress. “It’s also a sin to be too good-looking. It seems that I’ve already committed an unpardonable sin.”

Xuanyuan Ye was shocked by his words. She stopped calling him cousin and scolded with a red face, “Xuanyuan Ziming, can you be any more shameless?”

Xuanyuan Ziming looked at Chu Feng with an understanding expression. “I’m here to pay my respects to Imperial Uncle.”

The commotion in the courtyard could definitely be heard from inside. His Highness’s silence was equivalent to tacit agreement.

Chu Feng thought that he understood what Xuanyuan Ce meant. This time, he did not say anything else and respectfully invited the two of them in.

Xuanyuan Ye’s eyes darkened.

After returning to the room, Mo Yu said coldly, “Young Master, she’s just a princess. Why do you have to…”
