"Mr. Yun, let's begin in a while!"

Xiao Feimo did not hesitate at all, as though this was only a small matter that could not be any smaller.

Seeing Xiao Feimo agree so readily, Yun Qing was slightly surprised, this was a matter of life and death, he was actually so bold, he did not even hesitate before agreeing. In any case, he had already explained the relationship between them clearly, he nodded at Xiao Feimo and said, "I will go prepare some things first, then send someone to call for the Duke."

"Thank you, Mister."

Yun Qing nodded and followed him.

Feng Qingying walked in front of Xiao Feimo, "According to Mr. Yun, this matter is very dangerous, Your Highness can't think of anything else!"

"This is the only method. Qing Qing, are you worried about This King again?"

Xiao Feimo's tone was extremely relaxed, there was even a slight smile on the corner of her lips.

Feng Qingying was indeed worried for Xiao Feimo, but she was unwilling to admit it in front of Xiao Feimo.

"This bit of pain is nothing to This King. Don't worry, This King will definitely not let you be widowed."

Who said she was worried about being widowed? She was afraid that Xiao Feimo wouldn't be able to hold on.

Feng Qingying did not speak. No matter how hard he tried to conceal his worry, it could not be concealed.

Xiao Feimo reached out and patted her shoulder, "Qingqing, don't go anywhere. Just wait here for this duke.

She was a doctor, and had seen such things too many times. If what Yun Qing said was true, then the challenge would be the limit.

If she wanted to survive through those extreme limits, it would require an extremely strong mental fortitude and a very strong endurance. Even she did not dare to say these words lightly.

She believed in Xiao Feimo, and was worried about him as well.

"Then I will wait here for Your Highness."

This matter was no longer within her control. Waiting for news was the only thing she could do right now.

Xiao Feimo suddenly took out a blood-red jade bracelet from his bosom. It was an extremely beautiful jade bracelet, and as he pulled Feng Qingying's hand, he placed the jade bracelet on Feng Qingying's jade-like wrist.

Thinking about what he was about to do, Feng Qingying didn't reject him.

"It's very suitable for you to wear a bracelet. Don't give the bracelet to anyone else in the future."

Previously, when Feng Qingying gave her the jade bracelet, she was already very good-looking. However, after wearing the bracelet that Xiao Feimo gave her, she realised that she was much more suitable for using red.

It had to be said that Xiao Feimo had good eyes.

Xiao Feimo's voice was rarely so gentle as she gently held Feng Qingying's hand. Her hand was soft and slender, and holding it was extremely comfortable.

"Mr. Yun is so powerful, now that I'm right here, will Shangguan Nanyi let Mr. Yun take the Soul Absorbing Orb?"

Feng Qingying changed the topic, and unnaturally withdrew her hand. If this continued, she really did not know how to respond.

"Nope." Xiao Feimo's tone was very confident, "Mr. Yun won't touch you, and Shangguan Nanyi won't do it here."

"Why?"

"Believe in This King. If you are not confident This King will not bring you here."

On this point, Feng Qingying really believed in Xiao Feimo. Although he still had some things to hide from her, after finding out what she should know, she would not delve into Xiao Feimo's hidden secrets anymore.

"The entire Yan Kingdom still requires you, your highness. You must hold on, your highness."

"Do you need This King?"

Xiao Feimo looked at Feng Qingying with his bright eyes.

"I …" Feng Qingying was suddenly stumped. Those words were stuck in his throat.

"Your Highness, Teacher will now invite you over."

The old housekeeper had already come to invite someone over.

"Tell This King the answer when This King returns."

After Xiao Feimo finished speaking, he wanted to follow along.

"Wait." Feng Qingying shouted, and followed, "I will go with the Duke."

"This King does not need to accompany you."

After leaving these cold words, Xiao Feimo had already left in big strides. Feng Qingying stood on the spot and stamped his feet.

Then, the old butler brought Feng Qingying to a room in the backyard to rest. Because Yun Qing didn't like seeing people, both Lian Gu and Forge didn't follow him.

There were a lot of books in the room. Feng Qingying casually took a book and sat by the window to read, but he couldn't read at all. His mind was filled with Xiao Feimo's safety.

She was truly afraid that something might happen to Xiao Feimo. This kind of worry was completely outside of her expectations, as she had never cared so much about a man all these years. So she actually cared about Xiao Feimo's life and death.

Xiao Feimo asked if she needed him to protect her too. She was an imperial concubine, so he definitely needed Xiao Feimo's support. Feng Family could not be separated from Xiao Feimo's protection, if not, he would definitely cut open her with his Feng Family.

She attributed all her worries here and didn't want to give herself any other possibilities.

Just as she was in a state of upheaval of emotions, there was suddenly a knock on the door outside. When Feng Qingying came back to his senses, he realized that she had not turned over a single page.

"Who?"

"Princess, it's time to go to the dining room for dinner."

"I'll be right there."

Feng Qingying closed the book and glanced outside the window. He realized that the sky had long ago turned dark, and he had unknowingly sat for an entire afternoon.

She straightened her clothes, got up, and followed the old housekeeper to the dining room.

Initially, she thought that Yun Qing was also there, but she didn't expect that there would only be Shangguan Nanyi in the dining hall, with two sets of chopsticks on the table: one meat and three servings. Red Braised Carp was the only meat dish, it was very simple.

"Sir, you're not coming to eat?"

"Teacher wants to look after the prince and eat in his room. Please have a good meal with the marquis and the princess. If you need anything, just call me."

With that, the old butler left.

Feng Qingying sat down opposite to Shangguan Nanyi, he did not expect to be able to eat fish here.

"Master likes to eat vegetarian food so it's very simple. If you don't like the food enough, ask the cook to make one or two more."

"It's common practice to go back to the country. Even the duke can eat it, so how can I not?"

Feng Qingying's tone was extremely cold. Actually, she was a little hungry, but she didn't want to talk to Shangguan Nanyi too much.

After that, the two of them did not speak for a while. Feng Qingying lowered his head and focused on eating, eating in half a bowl, thinking about whether or not to send Xiao Feimo some, but was afraid that he would not be able to finish it.

"Please forgive me for the offense I have committed last time."

"What is the marquis talking about?"

Feng Qingying didn't even bother to look up. She seemed a little embarrassed and didn't say anything else.

After that, the two of them continued to eat. Neither of them said anything, and after eating, Feng Qingying got up and left the dining hall.

"Princess."

Shangguan Nanyi's voice came from behind him.

"Is the Marquis still busy?"

Feng Qingying did not turn back as he asked.

Seeing Feng Qingying being so cold, Shangguan Nanyi seemed to sigh, "I'm fine."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Feng Qingying, who was walking far away, seemed to have heard Shangguan Nanyi recite a poem. It was the poem she recited to Shangguan Nanyi the first time they met.

She stopped in her tracks for a moment as she felt that Shangguan Nanyi's manner of speaking was a bit baffling. She knew that Xiao Feimo had gone to see Shangguan Nanyi before, but she did not know what he had said to her.

As long as Shangguan Nanyi did not have any ideas about the Soul Absorbing Orb, she had no intention of becoming enemies with him.
