As soon as Yun Yi finished speaking, he suddenly realized that his behavior just now was a bit rude and disrespectful, and a faint blush instantly appeared on his ears.

Then, he bowed to Liu Fu in a flustered manner and apologized, his tone sincere:

"Marshal Liu, please forgive my ignorance and offense!

I definitely didn't mean to interrupt you, old man. I hope you will be magnanimous and not blame me!"

However, at this moment, everyone present was no longer paying attention to Yun Yi. Their eyes were all cast on Shen Qingge who was standing beside him.

Liu Fu looked at Shen Qingge with a look of pity, and his eyes seemed to be able to melt ice and snow.

He thought to himself:

Such a lovely girl should have been like other married ladies from noble families, living a stable life as a virtuous mistress, staying at home to take care of her husband and children and enjoying the happiness of family.

Now he has fallen to this point and has to join the guard camp, living on the edge of a knife all day long!

Alas... It is really hard to imagine how much sorrow and helplessness this poor child has accumulated in his heart, so that he can be so stubborn and believe that his father and brother are still alive.

Thinking of this, Liu Fu couldn't help but shift his gaze to the Lingnan King Xiao Heng next to him.

This noble king is handsome and elegant, and he is still in his early twenties and unmarried. He seems to be quite a match for Qingge.

And from the look he gave Shen Qingge just now, it was obvious that he also revealed some affection.

It's a pity that Qingge was once a married woman and the king's brother. I wonder if the proud royal family will have any grudges against her because of this.

In fact, it was not that old Liu Fu had old-fashioned ideas, he was just worried that Shen Qingge would be wronged in the future.

But Xiao Heng, who felt his gaze, had different thoughts at this moment.

He knew very well that Shen Qingge was not a person who spoke nonsense. If he said so, he must have some solid information.

So he looked at Shen Qingge with an inquiring look, hoping that she could give a reasonable explanation.

Seeing this, Shen Qingge was also calm. He slowly stood up and handed a cup of hot tea to everyone present.

I thought to myself, now that the Water Qilin has returned, it's time to tell everyone the truth. There's no need to keep hiding it.

After serving the last cup of tea, Shen Qingge finally put down the teapot gently, raised his head and looked around:

"At this point, I don't need to hide anything anymore.

But before that, please be fully prepared mentally!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she stretched out her hands, clapped her palms lightly twice, and said:

"Water Qilin, come out quickly!"

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked and turned their eyes to the roof of the side hall of the palace.

A trace of nervousness appeared on everyone's face, fearing that a huge beast would suddenly jump out from there and overturn the entire roof without saying a word.

Unexpectedly, in a moment, everyone was dumbfounded again.

A handsome young man in a light blue gown suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

Yun Yi rubbed his eyes in disbelief, then mustered up the courage to gently poke Shui Qilin's shoulder with his fingers and pinch himself.

"Ouch...that's going to hurt!"

He said in pain, then suddenly turned his head to look at Shen Qingge beside him, and stammered:

"Mrs. Shen...Mrs. Shen, is this...is this the legendary Water Qilin that appeared outside the city gate?

It can actually transform into a human form? And it looks like a human! "

Before Shen Qingge could answer, Shui Qilin's powerful and deep voice suddenly sounded like thunder:

"Why? Do you have any doubts about this?"

As the words fell, a powerful gust of wind almost blew Yun Yi away a dozen feet.

Yun Yi was caught off guard and was pushed back repeatedly by the air wave.

He quickly half-crouched down, circulated his internal energy, and finally managed to stabilize his body.

At this moment, his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and he was extremely shocked.

This mythical beast can not only transform into a human form, but can also speak.

It’s really unheard of and unseen!

Seeing this, Shen Qingge frowned slightly, patted Shui Qilin's head, and said with a hint of anger:

"Shui Qilin, don't act so mischievously in front of His Highness and Uncle Fu. Speak to them properly!"

After hearing what Shen Qingge said, Shui Qilin reluctantly stood up straight.

However, even so, its attitude towards Xiao Heng and others was still not very respectful.

After all, it is a divine beast that has made a blood pact with Shen Qingge and only obeys Shen Qingge. The kings, princes, generals and ministers in this world are insignificant in its eyes.

Shen Qingge shook his head helplessly twice, and then told everyone the whole story.

She first looked at Xiao Heng and Yun Yi:

"Your Highness, do you still remember the prefect Zhang of Anshan County, Xiao Mo's uncle?"

"Of course I remember!" Xiao Heng nodded.

"When he was dying, I learned from him that his father and brother were missing and Xiao Mo had not found their bodies!

And he has been sending people to search in the north.

So, I guess there is a possibility that my father is still pregnant!"

"Such a big thing, why have I never heard you mention it to me?"

"At that time, during our exile, we were all busy with our own affairs. I wanted to wait until the situation stabilized before looking for him!"

Shen Qingge responded apologetically.

However, it can still be seen that Xiao Heng looked slightly hurt.

He didn't know why Shen Qingge was unwilling to ask him for help, even though he could clearly allocate more manpower.

Liu Fu quickly interrupted:

"Hey... let's not dwell on this.

Qingge, please tell me what you found out!"

"In that case, Shui Qilin, tell His Highness and Uncle Fu the news you've gathered!

I really want to know too!"
