A different fairy road

When Xing Yuan returned to the Prince Consort's Mansion, it was already evening. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the gate of the mansion, which seemed particularly warm.

Pushing open the gate, Xing Yuan stepped into the courtyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion.

The courtyard was full of flowers and plants, birds singing and flowers fragrant, with a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere. Xing Yuan took a deep breath, feeling this familiar breath, which made her feel at home.

Just as Xing Yuan was enjoying this familiar feeling and was slightly stunned, a pleasant voice came from her ears.

"Prince Consort, you are finally back."

Xing Yuan looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lian'er trotting all the way over with a happy smile on her face.

Lian'er was wearing a pink satin dress with an exquisite ribbon tied around her waist, and she looked petite and cute.

"Yes, Lian'er, I just came back." Xing Yuan smiled faintly and replied in a gentle tone.

"Great, Prince Consort, wait a minute. Lian'er will go and call the princess."

After saying that, Lian'er didn't wait for Xingyuan to reply, and hurriedly ran towards the direction of the princess.

"This girl..."

Xingyuan looked at Lian'er's hurried figure, feeling helpless.

………………

In the princess's boudoir.

"Princess... Princess, Prince Consort is back!"

Lian'er pushed open the door and shouted breathlessly.

"Really? Xingyuan is back?" Zi Ruodie in the room raised her head, with a glimmer of surprise in her eyes. Then, she spoke.

"Yeah."

Lian'er nodded affirmatively.

After seeing Lian'er nod affirmatively, Zi Ruo Die immediately stood up, tidied her clothes, looked in the mirror again, and then said with satisfaction: "Where is Xing Yuan? Lian'er, take me there."

"Yeah, okay."

Lian'er replied, and then walked in front to lead the way for the princess.

………………

Seeing Xing Yuan waiting in the same place not far away, Lian'er shouted happily: "Prince consort, the princess is here."

Hearing Lian'er's pleasant voice again, Xing Yuan looked sideways and saw a slender figure, graceful and graceful, walking slowly towards him.

"Xing Yuan, I heard you just came back?"

Before Xing Yuan could speak, Zi Ruo Die looked at Xing Yuan with joy and spoke first.

"Yeah, I just arrived at the mansion."

Xing Yuan smiled faintly and said to Zi Ruo Die's eyes.

"You have been away from the mansion for dozens of days. Now that you are back, I have something to talk to you about."

Zi Ruo Die looked at Xing Yuan, paused for a moment, and suddenly spoke.

Are you looking for me for something? Is it because of the holy water? That's right, I forgot to share the holy water with the princess. I promised the princess that I would give her some after finding the holy water.

No, judging from Zi Ruo Die's expression, it seems to be something else...

Xing Yuan's calm eyes twitched slightly, and he was a little surprised that the princess came here this time.Looking for her, and at the same time secretly surprised.

Yulan Lotus Pond.

In the middle of the rippling water, among the emerald green lotus leaves, there are hundreds of delicate lotus flowers, white like snow, crystal clear, pink like clouds, gorgeous and charming, at a glance, there are thousands of shapes and beautiful.

The fragrance is refreshing.

In the pavilion, Zi Ruodie leaned on the red lacquer railing with a pair of beautiful eyes, looking at the beautiful scenery in the pond somewhat absent-mindedly.

Xing Yuan stood quietly aside, and glanced at the water surface, with doubts flashing in his eyes. Zi Ruodie brought her to this lotus pond, but never said anything. Did she just bring her to see the scenery?

"Madam... Ruo Die, if you have something to say, just tell me."

Xing Yuan couldn't help it. As soon as she opened her mouth, she suddenly remembered what Zi Ruo Die said last time. She paused and changed her address.

"You...what do you think of me?"

Hearing this, Zi Ruo Die turned her head to look at Xing Yuan, paused, and said softly.

"Hmm?"

These words were soft and heard. Xing Yuan's face was slightly stunned. She felt a little surprised, and at the same time, she was a little confused. Why did Zi Ruo Die ask her like this?

"You are beautiful, noble, and generous... But you are usually willful and capricious, don't listen to advice, have prejudices, and often misunderstand others..."

Xing Yuan thought for a while and replied immediately, but as soon as she said it, she regretted it and felt that what she said was inappropriate. She thought that Zi Ruo Die didn't want to hear these things. She paused, then changed the subject and began to list the princess' shortcomings.

Sure enough, Zi Ruo Die heard Xing Yuan's answer first, frowned, then her eyes turned, calmed down, and I don't know what she was thinking.

"However, your shortcomings are gradually changing. Aren't you willing to listen to others' stories recently?"

Seeing Zi Ruo Die's expression change, Xing Yuan continued.

Hearing Xing Yuan's words, Zi Ruo Die felt that she was not useless in Xing Yuan's heart, and her mood improved a little.

"Xingyuan, I want to ask you one more question. You are often not in the mansion. Are you hiding from me on purpose? Tell me honestly."

After a moment of silence, Zi Ruo Die's eyes were like a clear autumn water, staring at Xingyuan calmly.

"Yes... but that was at the beginning."

Xingyuan raised his eyes, nodded calmly, and added one more sentence at the end.

At the beginning, she did hide from Zi Ruo Die on purpose. After all, she and the princess were not on good terms at that time. It was not good to see each other in the mansion. At the same time, she was afraid that the princess would find out that she was a woman.

After listening to Xingyuan's words, Zi Ruo Die blinked, and her eyes reflected the ripples of the water, which slightly swayed. She could feel that at least Xingyuan's attitude towards her had improved a lot compared to before.

"If... I say if, if our identities continue like this, are we willing to live in peace for the rest of our lives?"

After a long while, Zi Ruo Die spoke again, and her words paused., while speaking, her pretty face showed a charming blush, and her heart was in a mess.

Zi Ruo Die didn't know why she said these things for a moment. After she finished speaking, she quickly turned her head and looked at the lotus pond, not daring to look directly at Xing Yuan.

Since the experience of the last few days in Damo Ruins, she couldn't forget it. Although it was only a few days, Xing Yuan had left an indelible impression in her heart. She had never understood him before.

It's strange to say that sometimes some people may not understand each other in their lifetime, and sometimes some people just get along for a moment, as if they have gone through a lifetime without knowing it.

After changing her impression of Xing Yuan, Zi Ruo Die began to think about her relationship with Xing Yuan.

As a woman, she attaches great importance to her reputation. As long as Xing Yuan's status as a son-in-law remains unchanged, she will always be Xing Yuan's nominal wife, and this cannot be changed in any way.

A cool breeze blew, and the charming flower buds in the lotus pond swayed and danced.

On the tender green lotus leaves, the round water droplets rolled around, and accidentally fell into the water with a "tick-tock" sound, causing a wave.

Xing Yuan was stunned. She never thought that the princess would say such a thing.

Looking sideways, Zi Ruo Die's face was turned away in panic, her long eyelashes trembling, and her figure was faintly reflected against the white waves on the water.

The soft light poured down, and the skin on her neck was white and crystal, shining with light, so bright that you could see the lines on Zi Ruo Die's ruddy earlobes, which were like beautiful jade, exuding a moving charm.

For some reason, since returning from Damoxu, Xing Yuan always felt that something had changed in Zi Ruo Die, but she couldn't tell what it was.

Seeing Xing Yuan silent, Zi Ruo Die slowly turned her face around. When she noticed that Xing Yuan was staring at her blankly, her face flushed again.

Seeing this, Xing Yuan quickly came back to her senses, her eyes flickered, her expression was a little painful and contradictory, and she was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to answer the question Zi Ruo Die had just asked.

After the last trip to Damo Ruins, Xing Yuan's impression of Zi Ruo Die did change a lot. It seemed that there was something more between them.

For the princess, Xing Yuan was not a cold animal. She also had feelings, but every time that strange feeling flashed through her heart, she quickly wiped out that unrealistic idea.

Thinking of the relationship between the two, Xing Yuan couldn't help feeling a little sad, because she knew that she had concealed the truth about her daughter's body and deceived Zi Ruo Die.

Sooner or later, she would confess this to Zi Ruo Die, but how would she treat her at that time? Would she be able to withstand such a blow?

When she told Zi Ruo Die the truth, perhaps that was when the two of them would break off their relationship.

"Actually... there is one thing..."

Xing Yuan suppressed his helpless thoughts and did not answer Zi Ruo Die directly. Instead, he slowed down his tone and spoke softly.

"What is it?"

ListenWhen Xing Yuan spoke, Zi Ruo Die raised her eyes, and her bright eyes became serious.

"I..."

Xing Yuan stared at the charming and beautiful eyes and opened his mouth, but when the words came to his mouth, every word seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, pressing on his throat, unable to spit out freely.

At this time, Lian'er's voice happened to come over, breaking Xing Yuan's embarrassment.

"My Lord, Prince Xiao is here, let you go."

Lian'er trotted over, still panting.

Prince Xiao is here? Xing Yuan frowned and pondered for a while, not quite sure what the other party was here for.

"Then I'll go first. Also, Ruo Die, these two bottles of things are for you."

Xing Yuan immediately turned around and said to Zi Ruo Die, handing the two jade bottles in his hand to the princess, and his heart was secretly relieved, but a hint of bitterness rose inexplicably.

Ruo Die, maybe I can only tell you the truth later, when my cultivation is strong, Xing Yuan thought in his heart.

"Is there a knot in your heart?"

Watching Xing Yuan gradually walk away with Lian'er, Zi Ruo Die's little face showed some doubts and worries.

Just now, she still saw a trace of pain and suffering from Xing Yuan's complex expression. Is it related to her? She didn't understand what Xing Yuan couldn't let go of?

Based on her understanding of Xing Yuan, the other party faced the danger calmly in the last Dharma Ruins, not even afraid of his life. It is hard to imagine what can stop this person?

Then, she lowered her eyes and stared at the two jade bottles that Xing Yuan gave her. Zi Ruo Die's heart surged with an inexplicable curiosity. She gently opened the lid of one of the jade bottles, and suddenly, a faint medicinal fragrance came to her nose.

"This is... the anti-aging pill!"

Zi Ruo Die looked at the pill in the jade bottle and couldn't help but shouting. Then, a happy smile appeared on her face.

Then, she opened another jade bottle.

"This... This is the holy water spring liquid!"

Zi Ruodie stared at the jade bottle containing the holy water spring liquid in her hand, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time. She didn't expect that Xingyuan would give her such a precious holy water spring liquid.

In fact, if it were before, she would never accept anything from Xingyuan. However, she had just expressed her feelings to Xingyuan and regarded him as someone she could entrust her life to.
