Xiao Yiyan had given her a similar seal. The upper part of the seal was oval in shape, carved with phoenixes and melodies. The phoenix carved on this seal was flying phoenixes, making it look like a pair.
"He … "What do you mean, giving this to me?"
If Xiao Yiyan wanted to grant her and Xiao Yi Xiu's wish to give her a paired seal, it shouldn't have his name engraved on it.
When Xiao Yiyan gifted it to her, she could vaguely guess his intentions. Now that she saw this yellow seal made of Tian Tian, she couldn't help but think of the time when he carved that seal and wanted to compare it with his.
The bitterness in her heart had unknowingly deepened, and her eyes had become wet without her realizing it.
"It's not what you think." Xiao Yi Xiu shook his head heavily. "Xiao Yi Bei's been crippled. His seal is the only seal that the Xin Family has left." The reason why he gave me this was not because he had given up on you, but because he wanted me to control this square seal and arrange for all the businesses and dark factions under the Xin family to take over. "
Gu Qingli looked at him in surprise.
Xiao Yiyan did not just want to withdraw from the struggle for the throne, he also wanted to help Xiao Yixiu?
"Prince, wangfei, there is someone outside the mansion seeking an audience. He has a temper and his tone of voice is very arrogant." Suifeng reported to the outside.
"Who is it?" Xiao Yi Xiu pulled Gu Qing Li out.
Wind Following Sword shrugged, "A girl … Oh, that's not right. She has a group of guards behind her …" "It seems to be quite grand and impressive."
Gu Qingli couldn't help but hold her forehead.
Princess Lan Xun? She couldn't catch up to Xiao Yiyan, so why would she chase all the way to the Mo King's Manor to capture him?
The worst thing was that this Princess Lan Xun was still trying to make a name for herself. Was she trying to tear down Prince Mo's estate?
"Invite her in, but her bodyguards must stay outside of the Feng Qingxuan, otherwise let her return."
"Oh!" He dragged a long sigh with him as he walked out with a smile on his face.
"Jin Shu, Yu Ying, look at the tea."
Ever since she moved to the Feng Che Xuan, Yu Ying had also moved here. The original courtyard only had a janitor and servant left.
However, her jade-like face was clearly somewhat haggard, and the peerless aura in her eyes had also diminished a bit. It was as if in the evening, the little princess, who was high above the clouds, had fallen to the ground and had no choice but to stand in a place that did not belong to her.
"Princess, why have you come to the Mo Residence?" Gu Qingli smiled indifferently, neither servile nor overbearing, as she made a gesture of welcome.
Princess Lan Xun sat across from Gu Qing Li. Even though she looked so dispirited and in a bad mood, she did not lose her status as a princess. She sat up straight, her cold, disdainful gaze not even pausing on Gu Qing Li's face.
"Before this princess came to the Eastern Abyss, she heard of the name of the War God and became curious. She just wanted to see it for herself … I didn't expect to be less famous than you. " Princess Lan Xun's gaze swept over Xiao Yi's face.
Xiao Yi Xiu understood what she was thinking, but he only smiled coldly and disinterestedly, not minding that she was being rude to him in the least.
"This princess heard that Prince Mo has been sick for more than four years, so naturally, his body was much weaker than before. It's just that I didn't expect his aura to have long since withered away. He would even hide behind a woman in the face of trouble." Even up to the night of the hunt, when the bonfire was being held, she still hadn't given up on secretly observing Xiao Yi Xiu.
The scene of Gu Qingli standing in front of him protecting him had left her utterly disappointed.
"That's why when this princess said that I wanted to marry King Mo, it wasn't my original intention."
Gu Qingli smiled. "Oh? "So what?"
"Actually, what this princess doesn't understand the most is you, wangfei." Princess Lan Xun stared at her, full of suspicion. "This princess has never seen a woman like you. She looks extremely simple, but in reality, it's impossible for one to understand her in the slightest."
"According to what Princess Mu's wife said, you should be a woman who only knows how to show respect to others, a woman who doesn't care about her heart. You might even disregard your own shame and steal someone else's husband …"
"Gu Qingruo told you this." Gu Qingli broke into a laugh. "She also said that I originally loved King Mu. I was shameless on my wedding night and wanted to seduce him into failing, so I threw myself into King Mo's arms instead. "She also said that even if I were to marry into the Prince Mo's estate, I would still not be able to defend my path of a woman. Even King Chen attempted to seduce me …"
Princess Lan Xun's face reddened, and she pursed her lips in silence. She did not understand why she could speak so calmly in front of Prince Mo, much less how she could speak in such a relaxed manner.
"Then, does the princess still believe these words?"
Princess Lan Xun slightly lowered her eyelids. After a moment of thought, she said, "Perhaps you aren't as detestable as she says you are. I shouldn't have only believed her words." But when you agreed to my marriage to King Mo in the royal study, it was a trap, waiting for me to jump into it myself. You predicted that King Chen would be angered by this, that he would care about you and not want to hurt you, and that I would make him sad and let him know the consequences of offending me. Your move of retreating to advance makes his impression of me even worse, and he doesn't want to see me again … "
"Wait a minute, Princess, have you never reflected on yourself?" Gu Qing Li looked at her with a smile. "I gave you a chance, and even made my prince teach you. How to take out the silver needles in your body so that you could keep him here, but what did you do?" In front of him, you are forever superior and arrogant. You like to use the words' Western Paradise 'to suppress him, and you even used the words' hurt me 'to provoke him … Is this how you like someone? "
"I'm sorry, Princess Lan Xun. Even I don't think you like Prince Chen very much. You may never have been tempted by any man in your life, and you don't know how to express it, but you should know that liking is a kind of giving, not a kind of coercion and extortion. Emotion should be the planting of a seed, daily sunshine rain dew, meticulous care, wait for it to grow up. But you? You sow this seed and you pluck it every day, angry that it doesn't grow, but you never water it. Do you know that would be counterproductive? If you give it what you need, it will grow as you wish. If you go and pull it out, you will only kill it. "
Princess Lan Xun opened her mouth and constantly blinked her beautiful almond-shaped eyes. Her eyes revealed an even deeper confusion.
"Also, no matter how strong a woman is, she will have a gentle side to the man she loves. When you saw me protecting King Mo, you thought that he would only hide behind that woman. However, I have also given him my back, so I have no doubt that he will be able to protect me during critical moments. " Gu Qingli smiled lightly and shook her head, "You didn't even see what sort of person King Mo is before you easily gave him a definition. Just like how you don't even know what kind of person I am, first you listen to Gu Qingruo's words. "It is the same for you. You have never understood his heart. You don't know what he needs. You like him like this. Thin and powerless. How can you move him?"
Princess Lan Xun's delicate cherry lips pursed. She was wronged and angry, but she also seemed to be forcefully suppressing it. Beneath her long eyelashes, there was a sparkle of water, as if tears could fall at any moment, but with a sniff of her nose, she pressurized the layer of water.
"I want to chase after him. I don't believe that I won't be able to chase him back in this lifetime!"
Gu Qingli smiled, "You have to be able to catch up to him no matter who you want to catch up to. Regardless of whether it's going back to the west or the east, you can't just tie him up and bring him back."
Princess Orchon glared at her. "I will not be looked down upon by you. I will definitely be able to recover his heart." This princess was born with nothing that I cannot learn. This princess must be even gentler than you! "
She turned and walked away.
"Hey, Princess, do you know where he went?"
"Ugh …"
