After a long while, Ye Luoli still could not find a single trace of the woman.

”Where can I go?”

Ye Luoli looked at the empty and desolate courtyard. Following that, that piece of withered leaf fell down, and the woman seemed to have left long ago.

The poison in her body had yet to be dispelled. Where could she go?

The sun shone brightly in the sky as Dongfang Chen and the rest finally embarked on their journey to Xi Liang.

”Crown Prince, the woman from that day, she … Where is it now? ”

Inside the carriage with the prominent imperial identity, Ye Luoli sat opposite of Dongfang Chen in a dignified and quiet manner, and asked carefully.

But when she said those words, she was a little regretful. That woman clearly held a different status in the Crown Prince's heart compared to others. Crown Prince would definitely have sent people to protect her since long ago, so there was no need for her to worry.

When Dongfang Chen, who was sitting opposite to her, heard her words, his hand that was flipping through the books paused. His pretty eyes flickered with words, as if they were like a deep river, unfathomable.

”Li'er, Jing Yan, she … Normally, things weren't like this. She was gentle and considerate, and Japan was an accident. She might not be able to accept you at the moment, but I believe in you, Li'er. With your kind heart, I believe that you two will get along well with each other. ”

Dongfang Chen put down the book and sat beside Ye Luoli, hugging her tightly.

He did not know how to face Shangguan Jingyan, the woman who had once risked her life to kill him.

However, as a member of the Imperial Family, he could not have a pair of people for his entire life. Even if he could make a promise for them, he could only deceive himself.

”Crown Prince, Li'er knows that it's not easy for you. Li'er has nothing else to ask for, she only wishes to have a place in your heart.”

Ye Luoli leaned lightly on Dongfang Chen's shoulder, a look of loneliness flashed past his eyes as he said softly.

How could she not know that as long as she was able to stay by his side, even if she could only watch from afar, she would still be blessed?

Now that she loved and hated him, she did not know that many years later, she would actually be able to take the most important thing in her life.

Because the birthday banquet for the Emperor of the Xi Liang was coming up, the entire Ye Capital, which was located in the capital of the State of Xi Liang, was bustling with noise and excitement.

In the Mirror Moon Pavilion, Shangguan Jingyan wore a black robe that was snug to her body. She wore a man's hair in a bun, like a beautiful man who had just walked out of a painting.

Thinking about Dongfang Chen and Ye Luoli's wedding, it was like her heart was slashed by a knife, the pain made her unable to breathe.

He clearly knew that it was impossible for Dongfang Chen to only love him, and when she saw it with her own eyes, her heart, was still in such pain.

There were two or three wine jars scattered crookedly on the table. She drank them all down one by one, as if that was the only way to relieve the pain in her heart.

”Oh, this young master has a good tolerance for alcohol.” Someone, bring me another ten bottles for this young master. ”

As Shangguan Jingyan was drinking until he was dazed, he suddenly heard such an arrogant tone.

She drowsily opened her eyes and saw an unfamiliar man sitting beside her, looking at her with a faint smile.

That slightly sinister smile made her feel extremely uncomfortable. She glanced at the man, then took out a silver needle and threw it on the table. She abruptly stood up and walked towards the door.

However, just as she stood up, a wave of dizziness came from her head. A pair of powerful hands supported her in an instant, causing her to fall into a wide embrace, saving her from the pain of falling to the ground.

She slowly raised her head and could only vaguely make out the outline of that person's figure. Her bright and clean lower jaw unexpectedly had a bit of charm and familiarity, as if she had seen that person somewhere before.

”Meeting is fate, why should the girl leave? Stay and drink with me, I can guarantee you a lifetime of prosperity. ”

The man suddenly grabbed her waist, lifted her lower jaw, and closed the distance between them as he spoke sinisterly.

Hearing him say that, Shangguan Jingyan left and woke up, pushed the man away, and anxiously stabilised his tottering body, only then could he clearly see the man's appearance.

So it was actually the crown prince of the Xi Liang, Mo Feiye. No wonder he was so arrogant.

Thankfully, Mo Feiye didn't recognize her, so she had a chance to ease up.

”This young master really knows how to joke around. This young master is a righteous man, it's not as good as Long Yang, farewell!”

Shangguan Jingyan sneered at him, then propped himself up as he walked towards the door.

”Eh, why is Young Master in such a hurry? This young master only wants to drink and chat with you, that's all. Since you're not giving me face, could it be that there's some unspeakable secret? ”

Shangguan Jingyan had only taken two steps when she was blocked by a fan. Mo Feiye's cold voice came from behind her as a wave of cold wind blew past her.

As for Mo Feiye, he dared to conclude that his intuition was not wrong. The person in front of him was definitely a woman, and not someone from the Xi Liang.

He had seen a lot of beauties in Xi Liang, but there was no one as cold and noble as her. Her body was emitting a bewitching aura, causing people to be unable to shift their gaze away.

He definitely had to get this woman.

”Young master, what is the meaning of this? This young master has matters to attend to, I'm sorry to say that I won't accompany you. ”

Shangguan Jingyan suddenly pushed Mo Feiye who was blocking his path with his palm and used the momentum to run for the door.
