In the first year of Longshi, the Great Yue conquered the city of Mantuo.

They said, my name is Nanping.

Some people call me Princess, but some people call me Miss Nan.

That beautiful military grandma and white-haired grandpa call me Ping girl, only one person is different from the others.

He called me, Your Highness.

"Pofeng, are you unhappy?"

"Also, why is your name Pofeng? It sounds tattered and not a very auspicious name."

Pofeng is the lord of Mantuo City.

He was always busy with government affairs, dealing with urgent matters within the city and the border within hundreds of miles, so it was difficult for me to catch a glimpse of him.

But whenever he has free time, he will come to see me.

And I was very happy. I would chat with him and occasionally have dinner together.

Pofeng's face was filled with helplessness as he picked up some food for me and replied, "Your Highness, my name means 'nothing can be established without destruction', 'to resist the wind and move forward'."

"Besides, I'm not unhappy."

I simply took action and poked the corners of Pofeng's mouth with my fingers to make him lift up both sides.

"Then why do you never smile?"

Ever since Sister Luo'er... Oh no, Aunt Luo'er and the others left Mantuo City, Pofeng's eyes have become increasingly gloomy.

I could feel his loneliness.

He is just like me, can't bear to part with them, right?

My action startled Pofeng.

He grabbed my hands in panic and took them away with a little force.

He told me: "Your Highness, you can't do this."

I was very curious: "Why? Aunt Luo'er said that we have known each other since childhood. You will take care of me like an older brother. As long as I am willing to stay here, you will not despise me even if it is for the rest of my life."

"Even though we're siblings, we can't even do something like this?"

"Pofeng is so stingy."

Pofeng just patted my head and said, "Because, men and women shouldn't touch each other."

"Besides, I can't offend you by being disrespectful."

I have to say that Pofeng is a responsible and capable city lord.

The people of Mantuo City were so happy that they even worried about his marriage.

I hid in the corner of the city lord's meeting hall and eavesdropped on them arguing about this matter. In addition to the impatience on Pofeng's face, there was also a strong sense of resistance in his eyes.

It seems that he is very reluctant to get married?

But when that sister named Que'er married Sha San, wasn't the whole city bustling with activity and everyone had a happy look on their faces?

And I heard that Nan'an City sent an invitation to Pofeng a few days ago.

The man named Leng Dian is Princess Shang.

Princess, I am a princess too.

Will I get married someday?

I accidentally made a noise and fell out from the corner, pulling the curtain.

Before I could get up, Pofeng rushed over and picked me up.

"This is the distinguished guest that His Majesty and His Majesty have kept in Mantuo City. He was recently injured and needs urgent attention."

"My Lords, please withdraw first."

"Don't mention the matter we mentioned today again. This city lord knows the situation well. There is no need for you to worry about it."

"If you are too free, why not take care of General Zheng first?"

After saying that, Pofeng hugged me and ran away... Oh no, he strode away.

General Zheng, who was originally watching the fun with his arms folded, suddenly became the next victim in everyone's eager eyes.

He roared in panic: "Pofeng—you are so unkind—!"

The wind turned a corner and I disappeared.

"You are truly authentic. You used to lead the Lotus Sect to oppose us everywhere. Now that we can allow you to work with us, it is a great favor from His Majesty and His Majesty."

"How dare you watch my fun."

"Then we can just share the hardship, what's the problem?"

Pofeng had a sneer on his face and his eyes were full of coldness.

I could sense that he was somewhat hostile towards General Zheng.

Because I was staring at him so intently, Pofeng thought he had scared me.

He carefully placed me on the low couch, then took a big step back and apologized to me with some panic: "I just offended you. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

I'm not angry.

Instead, my heart couldn't help but beat faster, and my cheeks turned red and hot uncontrollably.

I think I must be sick.

So he stood up and ran to the yard of Grandpa Luo and Grandma Pei, even shouting in panic: "Grandpa Luo, save me - I think I have a fever -"

I heard a clanging sound behind me.

It was like he was supported by something and fell down.

But I didn't dare stop and kept running.

Grandpa Luo said, I am not sick.

After listening to me explain why my heartbeat quickened and my cheeks became hot, he and Grandma Pei laughed so hard that they were out of breath.

"Silly girl."

"You have a strange disease that causes strange phenomena when you get close to the wind!"

"Then you still don't want to see Pofeng in the future?"

I couldn't help but twist my fingers and nod my head: "I want to...I want to see Pofeng."

"Hey, what about the fact that men and women shouldn't touch each other? I just like playing with Pofeng."

I figured it out pretty quickly.

“Every time I’m with him, I feel very happy.”

"He made me feel that I am not really alone in this Mantuo City!"

So, let it be a strange disease.

I ran back happily to find Pofeng.

However, Pofeng had already gone out into the street.

So I also left the City Lord's Mansion.

There were guards following me, and Mantuo City was very safe now, so I quickly found Pofeng with the help of the people.

"Breaking the wind——"

I rushed over and hugged Pofeng's arm.

It's not easy to get rid of me in the wind on the street.

His ears were red with discomfort. He clenched his fists and coughed softly, then whispered to me, "Your Highness, the people are watching us. Why don't you let me go first?"

I finally found him, I won’t let him go.

So, I rejected his request very seriously!

It's a rare opportunity for me to go out, so I asked Pofeng to take me for a walk.

I used to be afraid of crowds.

I'm also afraid of others staring at me.

But recently this situation seems to have become less and less.

Because the people here look at me with kindness, even if I go out on the street without guards, they will still give me food and fun things along the way.

Because they all like Aunt Luo'er and Uncle Huang very much.

So, I like them too.

I ran around the street pulling the broken wind.

Take a look at the exquisite jewelry for a while.

After a while, he bought a whole bunch of candied haws sticks and gave one to each guard, including Pofeng.

I'll buy some buns later.

I'll buy some clay figurines later.

Sometimes I want to buy ready-made clothes, and sometimes I want to go to a restaurant for dinner.

Although everyone knew the city lord Pofeng, he still gave away all the silver along the way.

He didn't seem to be annoyed by my troubles, nor did he seem to be impatient with my going through so much trouble.

Not only was the guard already piled high with things, but his hands were also finally filled with boxes.

However, after the meal, Pofeng asked the guards to take back the things they had bought today.

He took me to the night market again.

I saw many wonderful performances here.

I am so happy.

I took Pofeng's hand, bought a lantern, and put on a mask.

Finally, we went to release river lanterns together.

"I hope Pofeng will become happier day by day, and one day he will be able to laugh out loud like me!"

Pofeng seemed surprised. I will make a wish for him.

"Is this your little prince's wish?"

I replied as a matter of course: “Of course!”

"Pofeng, it's your turn to make a wish! Come on, what will you wish for?"

"Are Uncle Huang and Aunt Luo'er coming back to see you... or are you able to return to them?"

"Or do you want a beautiful girl to fall from the sky and become your wife?"

"still……"

The more I guess, the more excited I become.

I didn't want the wind to break my mask and it bounced hard on my face.

"No guessing allowed."

I pretended to be angry: "Well, you are committing treason, what is your punishment?"

Pofeng ignored me.

He whispered a wish to the river lanterns: "May Nanping... be happy and healthy, and live a life without worries."

Not the little prince, but Nanping?

My heart seemed to skip a beat.

I also became more curious about whether his wish was sincere.

So I leaned forward and turned my head towards him, wanting to see his true expression.

But I forgot that this was the riverside, so I tilted my body and almost fell into the river.

Fortunately, Pofeng was quick enough to hug me and hold me in his arms.

Our two masks collided with each other.

I think I kissed him through the mask.

After that night, I liked seeing Pofeng more and more.

I want to go see him every day when I have free time.

Seeing him makes the whole day happy and fulfilling.

Otherwise, I always feel empty inside, as if something is left undone.

And he would often bring me some small toys to play with.

He spends more and more time eating with me.

Our relationship became closer and closer, but just then, my mother came.

The first time I saw her I knew she was my mother.

I remember her and she always appears in my dreams.

My mother hugged me and cried until she almost fainted several times.

She hugged me and called me her sweetheart, called me Nanping, said I was her life, and said that she was lucky I was still alive.

It's strange, of course I'm still alive.

Why is it okay?

I cried too.

I don’t know why, but I feel a little sad seeing my mother like this.

However, I still can't think of anything else.

They all said that it would be better if I couldn’t remember it, so that I could live as happily as I do now.

But after A Niang came, she was not very friendly to Po Feng.

I even saw her scolding Pofeng twice as if she were scolding a servant.

She warned Pofeng not to approach me again.

I am angry.

Angry A Niang's attitude towards Po Feng, Angry A Niang wanted to drive Po Feng away as soon as she came.

"Auntie!"

"Nanping doesn't like you treating Pofeng like this!"

"Pofeng takes care of me and accompanies me like a brother. If it weren't for him, Nanping wouldn't be so happy!"

A-niang wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled and asked me, "You think of Pofeng as your brother? Really?"

"Ping'er, although he doesn't deserve it, I'm happy to hear you say that."

After saying this, A Niang looked at Po Feng with a meaningful look.

Pofeng's face turned ugly.

At that moment, my heart also became very uncomfortable.

He bowed and kept backing away.

Then he turned around and left resolutely.

"Po Feng..."

I don't know if I said the wrong thing.

But since then, I have never seen Po Feng again.
