In the Gale Imperial Palace.
"Father, she has arrived. Do you want to see her?" Feng Ling stood in front of a man in a royal robe and said respectfully. The man's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. His face was dignified and clean. He looked like he was in his thirties even though he was in his forties. He was Feng Ling's father, the new king of the Dafeng Kingdom, Feng Lie.
"No need, I have already seen her." Feng Lie did not look at him and said with his back facing him.
Feng Ling was not surprised. When he went out of the city to welcome Ye Shuiyao, he had already inadvertently discovered that Feng Lie had appeared in front of the city gate. After a glance, he left expressionlessly. For so many years, he had rarely seen Feng Lie smile. That dignified face had been fixed on his face for many years, making people feel timid before they even opened their mouths.
"That Yeh family girl is indeed a goddess. Her appearance and temperament are all extraordinary. She is worthy of any man in the world. However, as the son of Feng Lie and the future king of the Great Wind Country, you actually forced me to give up a golden opportunity for a woman. You really disappoint me. "Feng Lie coldly snorted and still didn't turn around.
Feng Ling had heard these words too many times. He sighed and said, "I am sorry, father. I know I have disappointed you. I can't be as decisive as you were in the beginning. I can feel that if I can't get her, I will regret it for the rest of my life. However, I promise you, only this once. From now on, I will do my best to assist you and help you conquer the world … "
Feng Lie turned around and looked at him with a complicated look. "Do you think you can do it a second time? I never thought that the promise I got from Senior Wind when you were born would be used like this. Senior Feng's kindness to the Dafeng Kingdom is as heavy as a mountain. Otherwise, even if you begged me for three days and three nights, I would not even frown. "
"Father, please don't be angry." Feng Ling heard the gentleness in Feng Lie's voice and relaxed.
"Fine, fine. Since it has come to this, it is useless to say more. You are a hundred times better than your brothers. If I can't conquer the world before I die, I will place all my hopes on you. This time, I'll take it that you've made a big mistake due to your youthful arrogance. I'll be waiting for you to make up for it with your actions. "
"I definitely won't disappoint Father!" Feng Ling solemnly vowed.
Feng Lie nodded his head. His expression finally calmed down as he calmly said: "There are some things that you won't feel at ease if you don't settle them early. Since that's the case, your wedding will be held tomorrow. We will immediately send out invitations. My son's wedding must be held with great fanfare. Everyone in the world will know about it, and the Yeh family's spirit will be crushed. Are you satisfied? "
Feng Ling was overjoyed. He knelt down and said, "Thank you, Imperial Father, for your kindness."
"Hahahaha, I really didn't expect that the daughter of Ye Wei who fought so fiercely on the battlefield all those years ago would be forced to become my daughter-in-law … Ye Wei, oh Ye Wei, you still lost to me in the end. Let's see how you'll win this round, hahahaha!"
Jadewind Pavilion.
Feng Ling walked in with light footsteps. At the same time, the maid guarding the door made a silent gesture, afraid that she would disturb Ye Shuiyao who was inside.
Ye Shuiyao sat on the bed embroidered with phoenixes and spent the entire afternoon like this. It was as though she had suddenly lost her vitality, and no one knew what she was thinking about.
"Princess Yao Feng." Feng Ling walked closer and called out softly and respectfully. That day at the Yeh family, he only caught a glimpse of her. Most of the time, he only saw her back. Now, he could finally observe her from the front. The more he looked, the faster his heartbeat became. It was as though he was floating in the clouds.
"Get out!"
A cold voice made Feng Ling sober up. He wasn't angry at all because this was her personality and charm. He smiled and said: "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you anymore. I'm here to tell Princess Yao Feng that tomorrow is the day of our wedding. If Princess Yao Feng is homesick, why don't you relax and walk around the palace. After a long time, you'll like it here. Feng Ling will take his leave. "
After he finished speaking politely, he smiled gently and walked away with light footsteps like when he came.
When Ye Shuiyao arrived at Tianfeng City, Ye Wuchen had just arrived at Tianlong City. Back then, it took him more than twenty days to travel from Tianlong City to Flame Dragon City. It only took him a short fifteen days to return.
The moment Ye Wuchen stepped into Tianlong City, someone immediately ran to report to Long Yin. Ye Wuchen had this thought in his heart. He quickened his footsteps. It wasn't that he was afraid of homesickness, but he was worried about Ye Shuiyao. The strange feeling he had during this period of time told him that something must have happened to her.
When he passed by the Hua family, he hesitated for a moment. He asked Oculum and Ningxue to wait outside. Just like the first time he entered the Hua family, he climbed over the wall and entered silently.
Hua Shuirou leaned against the bed. She was weaving a long white scarf with her slender fingers. The weather had already begun to turn cold. After late autumn came winter. This scarf was naturally knitted for her fiancé. Ye Wuchen once said that her culinary skills were unparalleled in the world. Her needlework was not inferior to her culinary skills. She had everything that the best wife should have, and she did every one of them to perfection.
She used to knit for her father and herself. Now, she knitted for Ye Wuchen alone. This caused Hua Zhentian to grumble in jealousy that she forgot her father when she had a lover.
There was a gentle and beautiful smile on her lips. She enjoyed the satisfaction and joy of knitting for her lover. She hoped that he would like it. In the past, she never had such a strange feeling when she was knitting. It was because there was someone in her heart that she could not cut off. Her mood changed because of this.
The room was very quiet. There was only the soft sound of knitting. Just as she finished the last stitch, a familiar smell wafted into her nose. Hua Shuirou abruptly raised her head and looked at the smiling face that had haunted her dreams. She did not panic like the first time he suddenly barged in. She forgot about the things in her hands and could not help but throw herself into his arms. She tasted the feeling of missing someone for the first time. Moreover, it had been a month and a half. She finally understood what kind of torture it was.
"You are finally back …" She whispered softly in his ear. She hugged him tighter and tighter. She was afraid that he would suddenly escape. She did not even notice that the scarf that had just been knitted had fallen to the ground.
This was the first time Hua Shuirou took the initiative to hug him. The joy and longing of overcoming shyness made him touched by this young girl's tenderness again. He patted her back and said, "My Little Rourou seems to have lost weight. Is it because you missed me?"
Hua Shuirou still hugged him, enjoying the feeling of being close to him. After a long time, Ye Wuchen heard her quiet "En" sound. His heart warmed up again.
After a long period of affection, the two of them finally separated from each other. Ye Wuchen caressed her tender face and said softly, "I just came back and haven't gone home yet. When I passed by here, I couldn't help but miss you, so I sneaked in. I'll go home first and let my family rest assured. I'll come back later, okay? "
Hearing that he couldn't wait to see her before going home, Hua Shuirou's joy and happiness made her feel as if she was about to melt. She said with a blushing face, "Husband, you went out so far. Auntie must be very worried. You should go home first."
"Oh? Auntie? "Ye Wuchen looked at her with a smile that was not a smile.
Hua Shuirou lowered her head. The blush on her face made her look like a blooming lily. She shyly said in a small voice, "It's mother."
"That's right. Don't call me by the wrong name in the future, okay?" Ye Wuchen said with a smile.
"En …" She responded in a low voice. She finally saw the scarf lying on the ground. She bent down to pick it up and patted the nonexistent dust off it in a flurry.
"This is?" Ye Wuchen could tell at a glance that this scarf was knitted for him.
"This is … the scarf I just knitted for you. The weather is starting to get cold … Ah, you're still wearing such thin clothes. You'll freeze." Hua Shuirou found that he was only wearing a thin layer and immediately felt distressed. She tiptoed and tied the scarf around his neck, "Can you wear it now? It's a bit cold outside right now. Otherwise, you'll really freeze. "
She naturally didn't know that Ye Wuchen was immune to cold and heat. Even if he stood naked on an ice mountain, he wouldn't feel the slightest bit of cold. Ye Wuchen didn't want to see her disappointed. He put his hand on the scarf and said with a gentle face, "Okay, then I'll only wear the scarf that Little Rourou made for me in the future."
"But, your clothes are so thin. Can I make a coat for you?" Hua Shuirou raised her watery eyes and looked at her.
"Okay. I'll definitely like the coat that Little Rourou made." Ye Wuchen said with a doting expression. He knew that for this young girl, making a coat was not hard work. Instead, it was a kind of enjoyment. During the time he left Celestial Dragon City, he had been missing Hua Shuirou's gentleness. He was glad that she could become his wife.
He entered and left quietly. The difference was that when he came out of the Hua Family, Ye Wuchen had a white scarf wrapped around his neck. It matched his white clothes very well.
"Let's go home!" Ye Wuchen pulled Ningxue and Oculum's hands and walked in the direction of the Yeh family.
They pushed open the door. The Yeh family, who had already received the news, were already waiting there. Wang Wenshu almost pounced on him. She asked him about his well-being in a panic. She asked him if he had suffered outside. She only relaxed when she saw that his complexion was normal and he didn't lose any weight.
When he stepped through the door of the Yeh family, he felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. It was a feeling that something was missing. Moreover, whether it was Ye Nu, Ye Wei, Wang Wenshu, or even Ye Wuyun who had a fake smile on his face, there was something strange hidden in their expressions. His heart became a little heavy. However, he resisted the urge to ask. Before that, there was something he had to solve.
"Chen'Er, did you get the Heaven Extinguishing Flame Dragon Fruit?" As expected, not long after they entered, Ye Nu asked cautiously. After all, this matter concerned the lives of the Emperor and Empress. It also concerned the reputation and glory of his Yeh family.
"I got it," Ye Wuchen replied. He forced a smile at the corner of his mouth. His answer made Ye Nu and Ye Wei heave a sigh of relief.
At this moment, there was a commotion in front of the Yeh family's door. Long Yin had personally come and walked in, laughing loudly.
Ye Wuchen naturally knew of his origins. He was worried and did not want to waste time. Without waiting for the Yeh family to greet him, he directly went up and said, "Wuchen greets Your Majesty. Fortunately, I did not disappoint you. I have finally retrieved the Heaven Extinguishing Flame Dragon Fruit."
"Hehehehe, We knew that you would not disappoint us. A few days ago, We heard from the City Lord of Yan Dragon City that a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth in white had brought two girls in the direction of the Volcano of Annihilation. It should be you. Come, let us see what kind of divine item the Heaven Extinguishing Flame Dragon Fruit is. "
If it was said that Long Yin still had great suspicions before, then his suspicions of Ye Wuchen were now very small. When Ye Wuchen had left, he had sent people to Yan Dragon City at top speed and had people pay attention to Ye Wuchen's whereabouts. The result was that Ye Wuchen had indeed gone to the Volcano of Annihilation. At this point, there was indeed nothing for him to suspect. He did not believe that Ye Wuchen would be so stupid as to fabricate a disease and then have him risk his life to retrieve the antidote to claim credit.
