Returning to the King of Zhenbei’s Residence

Yu Yunxi's temples throbbed.

'It seems like the Emperor wants him dead even more… I wonder what kind of trouble I'd get into for helping him…'

As though he could read Yu Yunxi's mind, Feng Yili looked at her with his dark eyes and asked hoarsely, "Eldest Princess, do you regret helping me?"

Yu Yunxi scoffed. "Regret it? No. It doesn't matter what I do; the Emperor will not tolerate my existence. My situation isn't much better than yours."

Feng Yili did not refute her words, and he only looked at her with a gentle gaze.

'Her situation in Xichu isn't easy, and I took so long to find her…'

Feng Yili felt extremely regretful that he did not find Yu Yunxi sooner, causing her to suffer so much.

"Alright, we're already a distance away from the imperial palace. King of Youshan, please get off the carriage," Yu Yunxi said bluntly, ordering him to leave.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yili did not protest. He only nodded before he left the carriage.
