The princess has super powers and space, so what's wrong with being a little arrogant?
Chapter 161 Xueying's Life
Mu Xiyue had a breakfast full of sweets, and she also found that her mental strength was stronger than before, so she didn't want to treat Xueying in two sessions today, and wanted to cure her in one go.
Her feeling was not wrong. Her mental strength was indeed much stronger than before. The speed and effect of the treatment were better than yesterday. In less than half an hour, the poison in Xueying's body was completely eliminated, and some of her hidden injuries and old illnesses were also cured.
After using the healing technique for so long, I'm not as tired as yesterday. It seems my mental strength has indeed become stronger.
Xueying felt relaxed all over, her body was more relaxed than ever before, and her mind was much clearer. Even the memory of being captured and trained as a death warrior as a child gradually jumped out of her mind. However, she wanted to recall it carefully and confirm whether her memory was correct.
When Tan Taihong saw Xueying fully recovered and her eyes were red again, Mu Xiyue was also very emotional. Such a tough guy's eyes were red for a woman again and again. How deep must his love be?
Ji Yun took Xueying's pulse. She looked like she was about to die yesterday, but today she had fully recovered. He was also amazed at the princess's extraordinary ability.
"Brother Tantai, Miss Xue is fine now, but she's still a little weak. I'll prescribe a tonic for her. She just needs to take good care of herself for half a month."
Ji Yun went out to find the housekeeper to get paper and pen to write a prescription, and Mu Xiyue also left the space to the two of them.
When Xiao Yibai came back from court, he heard that Xueying had recovered. He first went back to his own courtyard to see Mu Xiyue. He was relieved to see that Mu Xiyue was in good condition and looked much more energetic than after yesterday's treatment.
Mu Xiyue was delighted to see him back and told him that his mental strength had increased significantly. "Although Xueying is still a little weak, she can definitely move around freely. I asked Brother Hong to have lunch with Xueying. After Xueying rests, I'll talk to her about her master."
Xiao Yibai walked over to her and sat down on the couch with her. "Well, is Ji Yun bothering you? He is obsessed with medicine. I'm afraid you cured Xueying and he must be anxious to know how you did it."
Mu Xiyue repeated what she had said to Ji Yun. "I can only say this. Brother Hong has read a lot of fantasy stories in modern times. Plus, he's a time traveler himself, so it's easy for him to accept the idea of supernatural powers. I don't want to explain to everyone else one by one, or else I might be mistaken for a monster."
Besides, she can let people see her strength, but there is no need for them to know in so much detail.
At lunch time, Xiao Yibai and Mu Xiyue arrived at the dining hall first. Not long after, Tan Taihong and Xueying walked in side by side, with Ji Yun walking at the end.
Xiao Yibai saw Xueying stunned for a moment, with unusual emotions in his eyes that he quickly concealed.
Mu Xiyue's eyes were fixed on Tan Tai Hong and Xue Ying, so she naturally didn't notice Xiao Yibai's abnormality. Tan Tai Hong's attention was on Xue Ying, so he didn't notice the flash of emotion in Xiao Yibai's eyes. Only when Xue Ying came in did she notice the look Xiao Yibai was looking at her, and she quickly lowered her eyes to hide her emotions.
Mu Xiyue smiled and asked the three of them to sit down. The servants quickly brought the dishes. Xiao Yibai waved away the servants, and only five people were left in the dining room.
Xiao Yibai smiled and said, "Miss Xue, Yueyue specifically asked the kitchen to make something light. Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Xueying was captured and trained as a death warrior since she was a child and had never enjoyed such treatment. The look in her eyes when she looked at Xiao Yibai was not only filled with gratitude but also with emotions that Mu Xiyue could not understand.
"Xueying thanks the princess for saving her life, and also thanks the prince and princess for their hospitality."
Xiao Yibai picked up a piece of food for Mu Xiyue and casually spoke to Xueying, "I heard that Miss Xue joined the Death Squad since she was a child. Does Miss Xue still remember her parents?"
Xueying seemed to be at a loss for words. She hesitated for a moment before asking, "Does Your Majesty know a man named Yu Hongjian?"
Xiao Yibai's body stiffened, and he slowly said, "My uncle has a son named Yu Jingping."
Both of them answered the question irrelevantly. Although Mu Xiyue and Tan Taihong were confused, they intuitively felt that the Yu family was related to Xueying. Only Ji Yun opened his eyes wide, because he knew the Yu family. Could it be that the girl Xue in front of him was the daughter that the Yu family lost?
Xueying had already put down her chopsticks. She had been a death warrior before, so concealing her emotions was a must for her. But at this moment, it was obvious that her emotions were fluctuating greatly.
"Your Highness, my original name is Yu Jingqi."
Xiao Yibai tightened his grip on the chopsticks. He was right. The person he saw at first glance looked extremely similar to his aunt. Was it really such a coincidence or was it deliberately arranged by someone with ulterior motives?
Xiao Yibai exhaled lightly, regained his usual smile and said, "The food won't taste good if it gets cold. Let's eat first."
The five people at the dinner table ate quietly, each with their own thoughts.
Mu Xiyue had never heard Xiao Yibai mention his maternal grandparents, and she had never asked. Even at their wedding, no one from Xiao Yibai's maternal grandparents attended.
Now when Mu Xiyue heard Xiao Yibai mention his uncle, she realized that Xiao Yibai had never mentioned anything about his maternal grandparents' family.
After lunch, Tan Tai Hong took Xue Ying back to the Princess's Mansion first. He could see that Xiao Yibai had doubts about Xue Ying's identity. It was normal for a prince to be wary of people who appeared next to him. He wanted to hear what Xue Ying had to say first.
Ji Yun left after dinner. Xiao Yibai took Mu Xiyue to the study and took a book from the bookshelf.
Mu Xiyue had no idea what he was about to do. She watched him flip open the booklet, point to a picture, and say, "Sixteen years ago, my uncle was the prefect of Jinyang City. His three-year term had expired and he was returning to Beijing to report on his work. His daughter disappeared on the way back. My cousin is two years older than me. If she were still alive, she would be twenty-one this year. This is what the birthmark on her left shoulder looks like."
There was a red irregular quadrilateral in the picture. Mu Xiyue understood what Xiao Yibai meant. He thought that she should go and see for herself whether there was this red birthmark on Xueying's body.
Combined with the situation at the dinner table just now, it is not difficult to guess that Xueying is most likely Xiao Yibai's cousin.
Mu Xiyue said, "Xueying forgot many of her childhood memories due to poisoning. Brother Hong said that Xueying vaguely remembered that she was captured when she was young, so she is not as loyal to her master as other assassins. However, her memory is fuzzy and she has no way to find out her life experience."
Xiao Yibai sighed as he looked at the pattern in the booklet. "If she really is, then it's truly lucky. My uncle's family has never given up on finding her for so many years. Almost all the officials back then knew about my cousin's disappearance, and now it's such a coincidence. Someone with a keen eye would surely know that my uncle's family is still searching for my cousin, but besides my uncle's family, I'm the only one who knows about this birthmark."
Xiao Yibai closed the book and put it back on the bookshelf, then took Mu Xiyue by the hand and sat down on the soft couch beside him, and told her about his grandfather's family.
