On the morning of the second day, Ye Li received an invitation from the Zhang fu as expected. An invitation for Master Chu Junwei to attend a banquet in the afternoon. Seeing the plain invitation, Ye Li couldn't help but shake her head and laugh inside. This Zhang Baiwan was really cunning. It hadn't even been a day and he probably hadn't even recovered from the wounds inflicted by Mo Jingli's people.
"Is Master going to attend the banquet?" Wei Lin asked curiously.
Ye Li put down the invitation and said with a smile, "Of course I'm going. Didn't you hear Master Lin say? This is the first time Zhang Baiwan has taken the initiative to invite. How can we not give face? "Wei Lin was noncommittal. In any case, if Wang Fei was going, they just needed to follow and protect her. With Zhang Baiwan's abilities, he couldn't pose any danger to Wang Fei. Even if Zhang Baiwan really wanted to marry his daughter to Wang Fei … … cough cough, Wang Fei couldn't marry him.
"Master, Xi Yard has woken up." As she spoke, the servant girl taking care of Princess Xi Xia came to report. Wei Lin said with slight shock, "She's very lucky, she actually managed to survive." It wasn't that Wei Lin disliked Princess Xi Xia and wanted her to die, but Princess Xi Xia's wounds really weren't light. The external wounds weren't fatal, but after the wounds became infected, Princess Xi Xia developed a high fever and didn't wake up. So many days had passed. Even the doctors in the fu had given up. They could only take care of her since she hadn't died. Unexpectedly, when everyone had given up, she had woken up.
The servant girl said with a strange expression, "But … … that girl seems a bit strange."
"Strange? What is it? Is she stupid, crazy, or has she lost her memories? "Wei Lin asked.
The servant girl shook her head and said with a slight nod, "This probably … … she's stupid. No, she probably has lost her memories."
Ye Li stood and said, "Let's go take a look."
When they came to Xi Yard, they heard sobbing before they entered. However, the sobbing didn't sound like Princess Xi Xia's sobbing. Mainly … … with Princess Xi Xia's age and personality, she definitely wouldn't … … cry so loudly.
When they stepped in, they saw the mess in the room. Ye Li stood at the door and frowned as she looked at the woman hiding at the foot of the bed. Her eyes were clear and bright. She definitely didn't have the eyes of a lunatic or a fool. However, the expression on his face was indeed a little strange. Seeing them come in, the woman who was hiding at the foot of the bed and crying immediately stopped and stared at them vigilantly.
Ye Li tried calling out, "Princess Xi Xia, are you feeling better?"
Princess Xixia pursed her lips and suddenly threw herself at Ye Li.
"Young Master, be careful!" Wei Lin was shocked, and he kicked the person who was pouncing over.
"Wei Lin, don't." Ye Li hurriedly cried out. Wei Lin was taken aback and hurriedly withdrew some of his strength. However, he still sent Princess Xi Xia flying with a kick. But because he had held back eighty to ninety percent of his strength, he didn't fall too hard.
Princess Xi Xia clearly didn't expect to be sent flying with a kick. She sat on the ground in a daze for a while before suddenly bursting into tears. "Wuwu … Royal sister, bad people bullied Xia 'er …"
Wei Lin stilled. He turned back to look at Ye Li and said, "So she really is dumb." With Princess Xi Xia's personality, how could she act like this in front of outsiders? She really sat on the ground and started crying. Ye Li looked down and said, "I feel that there is a difference between this and being dumb. Xi Xia, do you recognize me? "
Xi Xia was too focused on crying. When she heard Ye Li's words, she hiccuped and looked dazedly at Ye Li. She suddenly reached out to grab Ye Li's face. "Brother, you are so beautiful." Ye Li raised his fan to block her hand. He looked at her with a smile and said, "Does Xi Xia recognize Brother?"
Princess Xi Xia blinked in puzzlement. She bit her lip and shook her head. "Who are you … I am the Princess of Nanzhao. You are not allowed to bully me! I want to find my royal sister. "
"Do you still remember your royal sister's name?" Ye Li asked. Princess Xi Xia rolled her eyes and gave her an expression that said you were dumb. She said proudly, "Of course my royal sister is Princess Anxi of Nanzhao. My royal sister is very powerful. If you dare to bully my royal sister, she will definitely have people beat you! "
Ye Li couldn't help but lower her head and laugh. "I am good friends with your royal sister. But … how come I don't know that she has a younger sister?"
"Nonsense! All of Nanzhao knows that this princess is Princess Xi Xia! "Princess Xi Xia glared angrily.
Ye Li nodded and said, "Alright, but I am not from Nanzhao. If you really are Princess Xi Xia, I will send you back to see Princess Anxi. How old is Princess Xi Xia this year? Why are you here? "
Princess Xi Xia grabbed her hair and said with some distress, "Seven years old. I … I don't know. My … royal sister said that she would celebrate my birthday … wu wu … "Thinking of something, Princess Xi Xia pouted and looked like she was about to cry again.
Ye Li thought and asked, "Does Xi Xia know Mo Jingli and Dongfang You?"
"Then who is it?" Princess Xi Xia asked without much interest. "Brother, are you going to send me home? I will have royal father and royal sister reward you heavily. " Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "It doesn't matter who it is. Xi Xia, rest well first. When you are better, I will send you back."
She pointed at the wounds on her body. Although they had healed a lot these days, they still hurt. Reminded by Ye Li, Princess Xi Xia looked at the wounds on her body and wanted to cry again.
After coaxing her with great difficulty, Ye Li let out a sigh of relief and took Wei Lin out. Wei Lin said with some confusion, "What is going on with this Princess Xi Xia? Is she pretending? "Ye Li shook her head and said," Princess Xi Xia's brain can't make such a perfect disguise. Just now, when I asked her if she knew Mo Jingli and Dongfang You, her eyes didn't change at all. If she is pretending … Princess Xi Xia is too good at acting. "
"That's true." Princess Xi Xia had almost died at the hands of Dongfang You. She absolutely hated Dongfang You to the bone. Even if she was good at acting, it was impossible to not have any feelings.
"Send someone to watch over her. When we leave Jiangnan, send someone to send her back to Nanzhao." Ye Li said.
"Yes." Wei Lin nodded and said, "Young master, it's time to go to the Zhang mansion for the banquet."
They had wasted a lot of time at Princess Xi Xia's place. In the blink of an eye, it was already afternoon. Ye Li had to change her clothes and go out for the banquet.
Zhang Baiwan really deserved the reputation of being the stingiest and stingiest in Nanjing. The entire Zhang mansion looked simple and unadorned. Even the inside of the mansion was ordinary. If people didn't know, they would never think that this was the mansion of one of the richest merchants in Nanjing. The servants in the mansion were also like kittens. Looking at the housekeeper who was leading the way wearing old clothes with patches, Ye Li couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Probably because Ye Li's expression was too explicit, the housekeeper embarrassedly pulled at his clothes and whispered, "Young master, you must be joking. In fact, we are usually not so rude. It's just that yesterday master … to prevent master from feeling uncomfortable, so … "
