Chapter 123 Yang Gezhi’s Return

"Your Majesty?" Yang Gezhi dressed elegantly in white greeted Huo Liuyun in a cold voice. He approached Huo Liuyun with a gentle smile under the moonlight.

Huo Liuyun turned back expressionless, "What brings you here?"

Yang Gezhi had a gentle smile as he replied, "I heard that Miss Feng has moved in here." Yang Gezhi seldom left the palace. He knew that Huo Liuyun had succeeded to the throne, but he didn't know what happened at the Royal Ancestral Temple. Neither did he know Feng Yun'er was Yun Canglan.

Huo Liuyun gave Yang Gezhi a wary look, "You know Yun'er?"

Yang Gezhi was speechless, thinking of what happened that one night.

"I… We're friends."

Huo Liuyun squinted at Yang Gezhi, "You have many friends."

"I'm flattered."

"What are you doing here?" Huo Liuyun looked at Yang Gezhi coldly, as if looking at a rival in love. He didn't know who Yun Canglan liked and what Yun Canglan thought anymore, but he hadn't given up completely. Yang Gezhi must be up to something.

Shui Minghan, aka Mister Wu Hen, who always wore a frosty look, took a fancy to Yun Canglan. Lei Tianyan, who stood smirking at everyone by Yun Canglan's side when Yun Canglan divorced Feng Gui, had ulterior motives.

Yang Gezhi blinked, 'Yun'er? Hmm... How intimate they are. Feng Yun'er embarrassed Huo Liuyun at the last banquet, but now Huo Liuyun addresses her as Yun'er.'

Seeing Yun Qi walking carrying a bucket of water, Yang Gezhi stopped him.

im, but I won't hurt him. I'll ask Huo Liuyun to approve of his return to the Ling Kingdom."

Yang Gezhi kept his head down at the gate sadly.

Yun Qi opened the door and turned up his nose at Yang Gezhi, "Your Highness, as you heard, you will be able to leave the Can Kingdom soon. Don't worry."

Yang Gezhi raised his head and asked hopefully, "Could I meet with Miss Feng, please?"

Yun Qi stretched out his arms to block the gateway, "What do you want? Would you break in forcibly?"

"No, I don't…" Yang Gezhi lowered his head and mumbled a few words, but Yun Qi didn't hear or care about that.

"Your Highness, now you should go back happily to pack your things, ready to go back to your kingdom. My mistress is efficient. Maybe you can leave tomorrow. Just go." Yang Gezhi was disappointed.

At last, he walked away reluctantly.

Yun Qi proudly watched Yang Gezhi go and then closed the gate of the Qifeng Palace after confirming that he had really left.
