Yu Yunxi shook her head at Qu Jing and said, “He’s just worried about Qu Yu. General Qu, it’s fine. Qu Yu and I can be considered friends. There’s no need for you to be so reserved.”

The weight in Qu Jing’s heart was lifted when he heard these words.

‘The Eldest Princess seems to be easier to get along with than I imagined. She’s just like Princess Changning back then…

At the same time, Qu Jing also recalled what his daughter told him about the Jiang family.

‘That’s right. If the Eldest Princess didn’t trust the Qu family, the Jiang family might have succeeded in framing us… The Qu family will always remember her kindness… Since she’s helped the family so many times, she definitely won’t hurt Yu…

Yu Yunxi said to Qu Zhengyi, “Don’t worry. I have some medical skills. I just want to make sure your young miss is okay.”

Before getting into the carriage, Yu Yunxi looked at Qu Zhengyi a few more times.

Qu Zhengyi was handsome, and he looked upright. Even if he was dressed simply in a guard’s attire, it was difficult to hide his extraordinary aura.

Yu Yunxi had seen Qu Zhengyi’s worry for Qu Yu earlier. When she recalled his brief confrontation with Qin Wencheng earlier, she realized that the little guard’s feelings for Qu Yu were not simple.

Yu Yunxi referred to Qu Zhengyi as ‘little guard’ in her mind because he looked a little young. In fact, he seemed to be a few years younger than her and Qu Yu.

‘Let’s hope that age won’t become a barrier between them…’

With that, Yu Yunxi entered the carriage.

Unbeknownst to Yu Yunxi, Feng Yili had caught her looking at Qu Zhengyi a few times. She was also naturally unaware that because of these few extra glances, he was feeling extremely jealous. He stared at Qu Zhengyi with a glum expression on his face.

If Yu Yunxi had not lost her memories, he would not have been worried at all. After all, he was certain that her heart was with him. However, she had lost her memories now. Who knew if she would fall in love with another person?

‘Is that young guard her type? Should I get rid of him?’

In just a blink of an eye, Feng Yili had already thought of a hundred ways to kill someone.

Yu Yunxi, who was unaware of Feng Yili’s murderous thoughts, checked Qu Yu’s pulse.

Qu Yu’s pulse was stable, and there was no sign of poisoning.

Yu Yunxi sighed in relief.

At this moment, Qu Yu moaned.

Yu Yunxi looked down and discovered that Qu Yu had regained consciousness. She quickly helped Qu Yu up and asked, “Qu Yu, how do you feel?”

Qu Yu blinked. After a moment, when she realized Yu Yunxi was in front of her, she wanted to get up and bow.

Yu Yunxi hurriedly stopped her. “It’s just the both of us here. There’s no need to be so polite.”

Only then did Qu Yu realize she was in her carriage. She quickly asked, “Eldest

Princess, how did I end up here?”

Yu Yunxi held Qu Yu’s hand and asked seriously, “Qin Wencheng carried you back. He said that when he found you, you were already unconscious. Qu Yu, after I asked you to find the King of Youshan, what happened?”

Qu Yu frowned as she tried to recall what happened.

“After I left, I rushed to look for the King of Youshan. I thought that if I couldn’t find him, I’d look for someone else to save you. Unexpectedly, I encountered another group of men in black. Their martial arts were even more powerful. I was careless and was knocked out by them,” Qu Yu said, sounding very vexed.

She had been practicing martial arts with her father since she was young and had been to the battlefield. She did not expect to be knocked out so easily.

After a moment, Qu Yu asked anxiously, “By the way, Eldest Princess, what happened to those assassins? What happened to you after I left?”

Yu Yunxi shook her head slightly and said patiently, “Don’t worry. The King of

Youshan found me after that.’

Then, Yu Yunxi recounted what happened to Qu Yu.

Qu Yu frowned and said solemnly, “Fortunately, you’re fine. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to make up for my mistake even if I died. You clearly asked me to look for reinforcements, but I…

“Don’t say that. It’s not your fault. By the way, those men you encountered, were they the imperial guards?” Yu Yunxi asked.

‘If the men who went after Qu Yu were the same men who tried to kill me, then it’s really strange…’

Yu Yunxi understood why the Emperor wanted to kill her, but why would he send people to go after Qu Yu? It did not make sense.

“There were too many of them, and they were very aggressive. I don’t know if they were the imperial guards in disguise. I didn’t expect Qin Wencheng to save me,” Qu Yu said with a frown. She did not believe that Qin Wencheng would be so kind.

“Alright, don’t think about it anymore. Just rest well,” Yu Yunxi said softly.

After getting off the carriage, Yu Yunxi saw that Qu Zhengyi was still standing at the side.

Qu Zhengyi looked nervous. It seemed like he wanted to ask Yu Yunxi a question but was worried his low status would offend her.

Yu Yunxi held back her laughter and said, “Don’t worry. Your young miss is fine.

“Thank you, Eldest Princess, thank you,” Qu Zhengyi said.

Seeing that Qu Zhengyi was about to kneel, Yu Yunxi stopped him and said, “Your young miss and I are friends so you don’t have to thank me. During this period of time, you have to stay by her side at all times. I have a feeling that Qin Wencheng has ill intentions.”

Yu Yunxi recalled the conversation she had with Qu Yu in the carriage. Then, she also recalled how Duchess Qin had asked for the Empress’ help to look for Qu Yu. Qu Yu had once told her that Duchess Qin was shameless and determined to force Qu Yu to marry into the Qin family.

‘Did Qin Wencheng suddenly treat Qu Yu well because he was forced by the Qin family? Forget it. No matter what, we still have to keep an eye on him before Qu Yu leaves for Kongzhou…

“Yes, Eldest Princess,” Qu Zhengyi hurriedly replied with a nod. Even without Yu Yunxi’s reminder, he was already wary of Qin Wencheng.

‘That sanctimonious person isn’t worthy of the young miss at all!’

“General Qu, don’t worry. Qu Yu is fine. She just needs to rest,” Yu Yunxi said. “Eldest Princess, thank you. You’ve helped our Qu family a lot,” Qu Jing said earnestly.

Yu Yunxi hurriedly shook her head and said, “Don’t say that, General Qu. I really didn’t help much. Please be careful during your trip to Kongzhou.”

After bidding farewell to Qu Jing, Yu Yunxi returned to Feng Yili’s carriage. As soon as she saw him, she could tell that he was in a bad mood. She asked, “Feng… King of Youshan, what’s wrong?”

No matter what, they were once husband and wife. She wanted to show him some concern.

Feng Yili glanced at Yu Yunxi and asked in a low voice, “Is that little guard very good -looking?”

If one listened carefully, one would be able to hear a hint of gloom in his voice.

‘That little guard?’

It took Yu Yunxi a moment before she realized Feng Yili was talking about Qu Zhengyi..
