New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies

Seeing that Ertai had successfully obtained the approval of his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, Erkang's heart instantly became anxious like a lit firecracker. He slightly turned his head and secretly glanced at Ziwei beside him, with a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes. He secretly thought in his heart that he wanted to be like Ertai and openly express his special relationship with Ziwei in front of everyone, so that Xiao Zhihang and others would know clearly.

You know, although they are only Ziwei's godparents in name, in Erkang's heart, they are already equal to his biological parents, and they are important figures who have accompanied Ziwei since she was a child. He longs to convey his deep and sincere feelings for Ziwei to them completely.

Whenever she met Erkang's anxious eyes, Ziwei would involuntarily avoid his gaze, and her originally fair cheeks gradually became slightly flushed. She really didn't have enough courage, and she felt too embarrassed to go with Erkang to ask for his parents' consent under the gaze of so many people. In her opinion, this scene was simply a great shame and embarrassment, and her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand.

However, when Erkang saw Ziwei's unwillingness to face the situation, he suppressed his impulse and tried to stay calm, even though he was still anxious. He knew that he must not act too hastily. If he mentioned this matter rashly in front of everyone, it might really put Ziwei in an embarrassing situation. He secretly told himself that he must hold back, he must hold back, and not bring unnecessary trouble and embarrassment to Ziwei because of a momentary impulse.

Just at a glance, he saw Ertai standing next to Xiaoyanzi with a seemingly attentive smile on his face. He naturally brought her the steaming cup of tea and gently handed it to her. Then he bent down and filled it with water for her. His movements were skillful and smooth.

He was so openly hanging around Xiaoyanzi, whispering something from time to time, that made Erkang, who was sitting not far away, furious. This guy was simply too much, he was so openly courting Xiaoyanzi.

After watching this lively show, everyone looked unsatisfied.

Benjamin has always been sharp-minded, and he had long noticed Erkang's hesitant look. He knew Erkang's inner entanglement and struggle, so he kept looking at him with encouragement, hoping that he could muster up the courage to step forward.

After Erkang glared at him fiercely, he turned around and hid aside silently, with his hands folded across his chest, looking unhappy. He kept mumbling something, obviously sulking.

Luo Junchen and others stood quietly by, carefully observing the changes in these people's states. There was a sly smile in their eyes, as if they had seen through everything.

Only Mu Yun knew about this. Her beautiful brows were tightly furrowed. She seemed to have heard "return to the palace" just now. "Return to the palace"? Was it the imperial palace that represented power?

So who are they?

She always thought that they came from noble families or were chivalrous knights. After all, almost all of them, including Xiaoyanzi, knew martial arts, and even the weak Ziwei and Qing'er knew a little martial arts.

I didn't expect that they might be related to the palace?

Mu Yunzhi felt that the identities of these people were so mysterious, and the elders in front of her were also very mysterious. She wanted to find out, but she was afraid that after she found out, she would find out that they were of noble status, and she would be alienated from getting along with them.

Yongqi was sitting next to her and noticed her looking around and her shock. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Mu Yunzhi shook her head and didn't want to ask about their identities. She didn't want to have too many connections with the royal family. Now they were just ordinary people and could still talk and laugh together. If she found out that they were princesses or had some other identities, although her status as the daughter of a minister was not low, it would definitely not be so natural to get along with them.

Yongqi seemed to notice that her expression was not right when she heard the word "return to the palace" just now, so he asked with a smile.

"Are you curious about our identities? When we first met, we concealed our identities because we were not familiar with each other. But now we have been in contact for a while and we are good friends. It’s okay to tell us our identities." Yongqi spoke to himself without waiting for Mu Yunzhi to refuse.

Mu Yunzhi wanted to refuse, but the other party continued, "Let's start with Xiaoyanzi. She is a legend.

Did you see that? That’s the famous hero Xiao in the martial arts world, Xiao Zhihang. He is Xiao Yanzi’s biological father. The woman next to him is her mother, who is also the daughter of a wealthy family.

What is the legend of Xiaoyanzi? See Ziwei next to her, right? She is her sworn sister. Because of her sworn brotherhood with Ziwei, she became the current emperor's favorite Princess Huanzhu.

After he finished speaking, Mu Yunzhi blinked a few times in confusion, obviously not understanding the meaning.

Seeing her so cute and confused, Yongqi couldn't help but chuckle, and continued, "Ziwei, her mother is a woman that the emperor knew among the people. However, due to some reasons, Ziwei's mother was not brought into the palace by the emperor. Ziwei is a commoner princess who was born among the people.

When the emperor was ready to bring Ziwei and her mother into the palace, Ziwei had already become sworn sisters with Xiaoyanzi, and Ziwei had also become the adopted daughter of Xiao Zhihang and his wife.

Therefore, when the emperor brought Ziwei and her daughter back to the palace, he saw that Xiaoyanzi was lively and cute, so he adopted her as his adopted daughter.

Ziwei is one of the most beloved princesses of the current emperor. She is Princess Mingzhu and Xiaoyanzi is Princess Huanzhu. Ziwei's mother was named He Fei, and Xiaoyanzi's father was named Earl because he had been protecting the people among the people. Xiaofeng is her biological brother and the son of the Earl's Mansion.

Qing'er's father is Prince Yu, the younger brother of the current emperor. She is also one of the emperor's most beloved princesses. She is Princess Qing.

Erkang and Ertai are brothers. Their father is a Grand Secretary and also an Earl.

Benjamin, a nobleman from Great Britain, entered the palace when he was young, and when he grew up, he became the court painter of the palace.

After listening to Yongqi's introduction, Mu Yunzhi swallowed her saliva and thought to herself that she had such a group of nobles around her.

Although she didn't really want to know their identities, now that she already knew them, she didn't feel inferior, after all, her status was not low.

Thinking about the young man beside her who had never said his identity, and he was so close to other people and knew all the inside information of the palace, he must be of a high status. She had a guess in her mind and couldn't help asking, "What about you, are you a prince?"

Yongqi smiled and said, "I am the son of the Emperor and Concubine Yu, the current Fifth Prince."

"What, Fifth Prince? Are you the fiancé that Fu Jin wants to introduce to me?"
