However, the moment she opened her mouth, Qin Xuan's originally calm eyes flashed with a trace of surprise.

Yan Yuan?

She knows Yan Yuan?

He thought back to the moment when the woman had opened her eyes. Was the joy on her face because she had mistaken him for Yan Yuan?

What was the relationship between this woman and the King Jing of the Easternum?

There was no need to ask, Qin Xuan knew that this woman was definitely not a simple person. This also proved Qin Xuan's speculation at the beginning, her coming out to save him, and even appearing in the Nanling, was definitely not a coincidence.

After Liu Ruo Qing called out to Yan Yuan, his vision immediately cleared up, and when he saw the person in front of his, the smile on her face immediately disappeared.

"Prince Duan?"

She propped herself up and looked at Qin Xuan in front of her, her face revealing a face full of astonishment.

Qin Xuan kept the thoughts in his head and looked at Liu Ruo Qing: "You're awake?"

"Yes."

Liu Ruo Qing nodded and got off the bed, "Why am I here?"

She looked around and saw that it was an inn.

"You fainted outside Chu Yang Pass, so I brought you here."

Qin Xuan walked to the chair at the side and sat down, "How are you feeling now?"

"Not bad, but I don't have much strength."

Just then, Qian Wei returned with a waiter carrying some medicine, "Your Highness, Miss's medicine is ready."

"Bring it in."

Qian Wei brought the medicine over to Liu Ruo Qing, "Miss, drink the medicine first."

"Thank you."

After consuming the medicine, Liu Ruo Qing looked at Qin Xuan and asked: "Duke Wei, what's wrong with me?"

Qin Xuan was about to speak, but then, after hesitating for a moment, he asked: "Don't you know the condition of your body?"

Liu Ruo Qing did not think too much into it. Listening to Qin Xuan's question, she thought for a while and said: "I think it's because the soil and water are not used to it.

Hearing that, Qin Xuan's eyes flashed a little, and without batting an eyelid, he looked at Qian Wei and shook his head.

Liu Ruo Qing did not notice, and only said: "Prince, as a prince of the Nanling, why have you come to the Easternum as well?"

She didn't know much about Qin Xuan, but her intuition told her that this person definitely could not be underestimated. A prince of the Nanling coming to the Easternum with only a guard by her side was already unreasonable.

Hearing her ask that, Qin Xuan's lips slightly moved, and laughed: "Didn't Miss say that I could ask you in person if I had any questions? Therefore, This King came here personally. "

Qian Wei, "..."

Your highness is so humorous.

Liu Ruo Qing was stunned for a moment. Only now did she recall the words she had asked the youths following her to pass to Qin Xuan when he was in the Nanling.

She looked at Qin Xuan, unable to believe in her heart that Qin Xuan had rushed all the way from the Nanling to the Easternum just to answer some question from her.

Qin Xuan saw that she was looking at him in silence, and smiled, his beautiful eyebrows moved slightly: What? "The young lady doesn't believe you?"

Liu Ruo Qing scoffed and asked: "Duke, do you believe it yourself?"

Qin Xuan choked on her question, then laughed heartily, and then said with a solemn expression. "This king has a question, may I ask, what is this lady's relationship with the King Jing?"

Hearing Qin Xuan mention Yan Yuan, Liu Ruo Qing's lips lifted into a smile. It was slightly stiff as her originally bright eyes subconsciously dimmed in an instant.

"Why is the prince asking this?"

Liu Ruo Qing's voice had become somewhat colder. Naturally, Qin Xuan could feel it.

He said half-jokingly, half-seriously, "It's not that the lady said that if there's any problem, can This King personally ask you?"

Liu Ruo Qing nodded her head, she did not deny the words that she had said before, but said: "I did say that, but I did not say that I should answer Your Highness's question, did I?"

Qin Xuan, "..."

This was the first time Qian Wei had seen a woman dare to talk to their master like this. He was surprised for a moment, then looked uneasily at Qin Xuan's beautiful yet evil side face, worried that this master would get angry.

What surprised him was that Qin Xuan only smiled indifferently, and did not mind Liu Ruo Qing's current attitude, nor did he continue to ask about her previous question. He cupped his hands towards Liu Ruo Qing and said apologetically: "It was this king who took the liberty."

Liu Ruo Qing bit his lower lip, and did not speak further. In his heart, because Qin Xuan had lifted Yan Yuan up, he felt a little stifled pain.

Seeing Liu Ruo Qing's gloomy expression, Qin Xuan guessed that it was related to Yan Yuan, and he was able to guess a bit of the relationship between her and Yan Yuan.

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Then would the lady mind telling This King your respected name?"

He paused for a moment, and then explained in a somewhat deliberate manner, "The lady saved This King, but to this day, This King still does not know how to address the lady."

Liu Ruo Qing did not plan to hide anything from him, it was just a name, and so she said: "I am surnamed Liu and my name is Ruo Qing."

Other than the name, she did not explain herself further. On the other hand, when Qin Xuan heard the name "Liu Ruo Qing", a hint of shock quietly flashed past his deep eyes.

Liu Ruo Qing?

Isn't she Crown Princess Jing?

Didn't she die a month ago?

Suppressing the shock in his heart, he smiled, "So it's Lady Liu. Nice to meet you."

Liu Ruo Qing did not bother being polite with Qin Xuan, and nodded her head slightly, suddenly thinking of the matter of entering the Heavenly Palace, she turned to Qin Xuan and said: "My prince, do you have a pass ultimatum to enter Chu Yang?"

"Naturally."

Liu Ruo Qing's eyes lit up, "Then, can I go with you?"

Qin Xuan's eyes trembled slightly, but he did not hesitate at all. He smiled and nodded, "If Miss does not mind, then this king will naturally be willing to accompany you."

Finished speaking, she got up from her chair, and said to Liu Ruo Qing: "Miss's body is not feeling well, let's rest first, tomorrow morning, we will enter Chu Yang Pass."

"Alright, thank you for your help, Your Highness."

After exiting the room, Qian Wei, who had been silent all this time, could not help but open his mouth: "Prince, she …. Could she be the Crown Princess Jing? "

The entire families of the two officials of Easternum were exterminated by the Shen Ji Hall, and the reason, was to force the imperial government to release Crown Princess Jing Liu Ruo Qing who was a member of the Shen Ji Hall.

This incident not only caused a huge uproar in the Easternum, but even the surrounding countries were slightly aware of it.

In order to protect the Crown Princess Jing, the Kaiser provoked the wrath of the masses, and in the end, forced the Kaiser to kill the entire Crown Princess Jing.

After the death of the Crown Princess Jing,, who had awakened from her coma, pointed her sword at the Kaiser in the throne room.

Although Kaiser ordered for this matter to be kept a secret, there was no such thing as a secret, and many people knew about it, but no one dared to say it out loud.

The reason why Qin Xuan knew about this was naturally related to the Nanling, Qin Mu Huai.

"This matter is fraught with doubts. Let's just wait and see."
