Return of the Phoenix Lady

Upon hearing this, Han Xing deliberately snorted and said, "Do you understand how good I am now? If I had known this, why did you..." Before he could finish his words, Ying Chen rushed over impatiently and hugged Han Xing in his arms.

Han Xing was startled by this sudden enthusiasm, but she calmly patted Yingchen on the shoulder and said, "Okay, okay, we'll be leaving here soon. Don't be afraid! Be good~"

Yingchen was furious. The good atmosphere he had just created was completely destroyed. He had no choice but to let Han Xing out of his arms and said, "Master, why are you here?"

Han Xing lost his composure when he heard this: "Why am I here? Yes! Why am I here? If it weren't for you, would I be wandering around here in the middle of the night with nothing to do?"

"Master, I..." Yingchen stammered, unable to speak.

At this moment, Jin Yifeng suddenly appeared, glanced at the woman lying on the ground, and said to Han Xing: "What should we do now?"

As soon as Yingchen saw the handsome Jin Yifeng, a look of sadness immediately flashed across his eyes.

"Yingchen, you..." Before Han Xing could finish, Yingchen said bluntly: "Master, I can't leave yet!"

"Ok?"

"The princess's grandfather is the current prime minister of the Jin Dynasty, Shangguan Hongyuan. He was the mastermind behind the extermination of my Qin family! I sneaked into the prime minister's residence and found no evidence of the extermination, but I heard him say that my mother was in his hands. Later, I was discovered by them. When they knew my identity, they wanted to kill me to eliminate future troubles, but unexpectedly, I was favored by this princess. Then, my cultivation was sealed and I was locked up here. And this old fox actually threatened me with my mother's life! Forcing me to stay here!" Ying Chen said hatefully. When he thought of the old fox's smug smile, he wanted to tear his mouth apart! And then end his life one by one!

Hearing this, Han Xing lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked, "When is your wedding date?"

Yingchen's expression turned unnatural when he heard this, and he said reluctantly, "The eighth day of next month."

"What are you going to do if we don't come?" Han Xing looked at Ying Chen leisurely.

"First, I will fake a marriage with the princess, and then use her to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion to rescue my mother. Then I will entrust my mother to Rui's care, and then I will go to fight to the death with the old villain Shangguan!" Yingchen lowered his head and said slowly.

Han Xing's face darkened after hearing this. He glared at Ying Chen coldly for a moment before saying, "Have you forgotten what I said?"

Yingchen raised his eyes, shook his head, and said bitterly, "No! I can't repay the young master's kindness in this life, I can only wait for the next life..." Before he could finish, Hanxing interrupted with a cold smile, "Next life? Yingchen, I tell you! In this life, you belong to me, Liu Hanxing, in life, and in death, you belong to me! There is no change!"

After saying that, without waiting for Yingchen's reaction, he pulled Jin Yifeng away, leaving Yingchen standing there with his head hung dejectedly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiyu on the ground moved, rubbed the back of her neck which was a little sore, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a handsome man who was covered with a layer of light silver light under the moonlight, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

Xiyu looked at the man in front of her with obsession, her mind was blank. After a long while, she stood up and thought for a long time, but she couldn't remember how she ended up here.

So, she mustered up her courage, walked up to the man, and said softly, "Brother Qin, it's so late, why is Yu'er here?"

After waiting for a long time, there was no response. Just when Xiyu thought he would not answer her, a cold male voice sounded: "Sleepwalking."

Huh? Sleepwalking? When did she start sleepwalking? Xiyu was surprised by this answer, but then she thought, maybe she missed Brother Qin too much, so she would come here to see him even when she was asleep. But Brother Qin didn't drive her away, which was really a cause for celebration!

Xiyu looked at Yingchen with some anticipation and asked cautiously, "Brother Qin, could it be that because Yu'er came here, you stayed up all night to take care of her?"

Upon hearing this, Yingchen couldn't help but frowning, thinking to himself, this woman is just too self-indulgent!

Seeing Yingchen silent, Xiyu thought he had tacitly agreed, and was happy in her heart. She said to herself: "Brother Qin, Yu'er knows that although you seem cold to Yu'er on the surface, you actually care about Yu'er, right? So, you still like Yu'er a little, right?" Seeing Yingchen did not answer and just looked out the window, Xiyu thought he was shy, so she was very happy and said: "That's great! Brother Qin, Yu'er knew that you would be moved by Yu'er's true feelings! Brother Qin, Yu'er is so happy! Haha~ Brother Qin, when I think about our upcoming wedding, Yu'er feels so happy! Yu'er is so happy to be with Brother Qin! Brother Qin~" Xiyu acted coquettishly towards Yingchen.

Yingchen was speechless. This woman had just gone mad, yelling at him, and now she was acting so understanding and gentle to him. Women really are fickle! Except for the young master, of course!

Xiyu was still saying happily, "Brother Qin, Yu'er is so happy! ... Oh, how about this, Brother Qin, I'll take you to meet your mother. That way you'll be happier and like Yu'er more!"

Yingchen's expression flickered when he heard this, and he finally said, "Are you willing to take me to see my mother?"

Immersed in joy, Xiyu quickly said, "Yes! Brother Qin, do you want to go?"

"of course."

"That's good. Hey...Brother Qin, Yu'er will take you to meet your mother. Will you like Yu'er more?" Xiyu looked at Yingchen with anticipation and asked.

Yingchen hesitated for a while, and finally hummed in his throat.

Xiyu was even happier after receiving a positive answer. She was about to say something when Yingchen spoke first, "It's almost dawn. Princess, please go back!"

Xiyu belatedly glanced at the sky, which was just beginning to show the light of dawn, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Good! Brother Qin must be very tired after a sleepless night! Go to sleep! Yu'er will leave now and won't disturb your rest!"

Watching the princess leave with an unusual degree of happiness, Yingchen sighed softly. However, when he thought about seeing his mother again, he felt excited and expectant. He just hoped that day would come soon.

Han Xing pulled Jin Yifeng away, but in fact he just returned to the roof from the house. When he saw the situation inside the house, he knew that the opportunity to save Yingchen's mother had come, so he didn't stay any longer and pulled Jin Yifeng back.

Halfway through the walk, Jin Yifeng suddenly stopped and said to Han Xing, "Xing'er, I suddenly remembered something that's related to the Qin family's extermination case. You go back first, and I'll go investigate, okay?"

Han Xing thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Okay, be careful."

When Han Xing walked alone to a remote palace, he suddenly heard a burst of angry curses and intermittent coughs: "Stinky boy! What's wrong with you? You can even mess up such a simple thing, you are really useless! If you still want to stay here, be smart! The palace will not keep useless people! Don't think that you don't have to do anything just because you are the king's child! Because you are nothing at all! Hurry up and chop those firewood! If you can't chop all the firewood, you won't have to eat!"

"Cough... cough... yes... cough..." Intermittent coughing sounds were heard.

What caught Han Xing's attention the most was that the man just said, "Don't think that you don't have to do anything just because you are His Majesty's child." Is this person who has been coughing the emperor's child?

After hearing footsteps for a while, Han Xing was about to go and take a look when he heard: "Ahem... Come out... Ahem..."

Huh? He actually knew she was here?

After a moment's silence, Han Xing walked over and saw a thin young man standing there. His face was unhealthily pale, his bony hands were stroking his chest, and he coughed from time to time. He looked very frail, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.

But how did such a sickly boy discover himself?

“…Are you curious…how I discovered cough cough…yourself?” The young man suddenly looked at Han Xing and said.

"It's windy outside, let's go inside and talk!" Looking at the weak boy, Han Xing said this subconsciously.

The boy was stunned for a moment, then smiled. I have to say, his smile was very nice, if only his face could be a little rosier.

"Thank you." The boy thanked her and walked into the house.

Han Xing followed him in. The room was simply decorated. It was the residence of the palace servants, but the air was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

"Please sit down...ahem..." the young man sat on the bed and said to Han Xing.

Han Xing walked over, sat on the only chair, picked up the teapot and shook it. There was water, but it was cold.

Seeing this, the young man could only smile and said, "Sorry... cough cough... cough cough..." Before he could finish his words, he burst into coughing violently.

Han Xing shook his head, picked up the teapot and held it in his palm for a moment, then poured it into the cup and handed it to the boy.

The young man looked at the steaming tea in front of him with a slight surprise, then smiled at Han Xing and said, "Thank you!"

After drinking the hot water, the boy's cough was relieved, and warmth seemed to surge in his heart, which had been cold for years.

"Although I am a sickly person, my senses are different from those of ordinary people, so I can discover you." said the boy.
