On the other side, Yu Yunxi held Yu Junjin’s hand and returned to her room. She was still thinking about what happened earlier.

Feng Yili knew what was on her mind and asked lightly, “Are you thinking about the contents of the letter?”

“Hm? Do you know something?” Yu Yunxi asked curiously, raising an eyebrow.

“There’s only one person who can make your Godfather let down his guard. Perhaps that person is close to the Third Prince of Beixiao, ” Feng Yili said.

“Who is it?” the little bun asked curiously, tilting his head to the side after he sat down.

Feng Yili asked, “Yunxi, you’ve been in Xinan for so many years. Have you heard that… the King of Xinan’s Residence has another master?”

Yu Yunxi’s eyes flashed when she heard this. In the past, Shen Si and the others had mentioned that the King of Xinan’s Residence did not support any of the princes. In the battle for the throne, the King of Xinan’s Residence only had two choices. They could choose to stay out of it, but if the imperial court continued to trouble them, they would support someone they acknowledged to ascend the throne. However, after so many years, she did not know who the other party was.

“In the past, when my Imperial Father was still in power, he had a sister who was called Princess Chunyang,” Feng Yili said.

“I know that. She was an extraordinary woman. Her talent and her strategies were not inferior to men at all. She also helped the Great Ancestor a lot,” Yu Yunxi said with a nod.

“That’s right. She was my aunt. However, you probably don’t know this. Back then, before my Imperial Father fell ill, he left an imperial edict behind. He said the new Emperor lacked experience at that time so he gave Princess Chunyang power in court. He also gave her a secret edict.”

“A secret edict? What is it?” the little bun asked curiously. He was engrossed in listening to his parent’s conversation.

“Back then, I wasn’t in the imperial court so I didn’t know much. I had a good relationship with my aunt. When I returned to the capital to mourn, I wanted to ask her about this matter. Unexpectedly, she and her legitimate son mysteriously disappeared from her residence that night. The imperial palace mobilized thousands of imperial guards to look for them, but they didn’t find any trace of them at all..

“Ah? She disappeared? Then did she appear at all after that?” the little bun asked.

Yu Yunxi was also very interested in this matter. She looked at Feng Yili, gesturing for him to continue.

Feng Yili chucked when he saw the mother and son’s reactions. He shook his head and flicked the duo’s foreheads before he said in a deep voice, “Alright, since you’re family, I’ll tell you whatever you want to know.”

“After Imperial Brother ascended the throne, he was greedy for power. How could he tolerate Princess Chunyang controlling him? As such, he was naturally overjoyed that she went missing. He did not order anyone to conduct a thorough search and only did it perfunctorily. However, I’ve never given up on finding her all these years…” Feng Yili said. Then, he lowered his voice before he continued to say, “A few days ago, my men found out that she had a good relationship with your godfather back then. She had also appeared in Xinan before..

Yu Yunxi’s expression changed imperceptibly when she heard this.

‘Is it possible that the person Godfather supports is the legitimate son of Princess Chunyang?’

“That’s all I know,” Feng Yili said in a low voice.

“Then, how did you convince Godfather to let you stay before this?” Yu Yunxi asked skeptically. She knew that her godfather disliked Feng Yili before this so she could not help but wonder why her godfather’s attitude suddenly changed.

Feng Yili’s gaze darkened when he heard this. He was silent for a long time before he slowly said, “That’s because I know…”

However, before Feng Yili finished speaking, someone knocked on the door anxiously.

Following that, Liu Xiaolan’s anxious voice rang from outside.

“Eldest Senior Brother, is Sister-in-law with you? Little Junior Sister’s wound is too deep. The doctor can’t do anything about it. Can I ask for Sister-in-law’s

“Look after Junjin. I’ll go and look at your Little Junior Sister,” Yu Yunxi said before leaving.

“Sister-in-law?”

Liu Xiaolan did not expect to see Yu Yunxi.

Yu Yunxi frowned and said in a low voice, “Don’t call me Sister-in-law. It sounds awkward. Just call me Yunxi.”

“Yes.”

“Where is she?” Yu Yunxi asked.

“My room,” Liu Xiaolan hurriedly replied.

The duo went to Liu Xiaolan’s room immediately. When they entered the room, Yu Yunxi saw that Gao Shixuan was half-undressed, revealing her fair shoulders and slender legs.

Liu Xiaolan had rushed in a hurry. When he saw this scene, his ears turned red immediately. He quickly turned around and said stiffly, “Little, Little Junior Sister… Hurry up and tidy up your clothes.”

Gao Shixuan pushed her hair back and said nonchalantly, “It’s fine. Second

Senior Brother, you can wait outside.”

“Then, thank you, Sister-in-law,” Liu Xiaolan said to Yu Yunxi in a low voice before he hurried out, looking as though he was fleeing.

‘It seems like I should start wearing men’s clothes. Now that Little Junior Sister knows the truth, it’ll be awkward to continue interacting with her as a woman…’

When only the two women were left in the room, Yu Yunxi said lightly, “General Gao, no, Miss Gao, it’s cold at night. You should put on your clothes properly. Moreover, you injured your leg, not your shoulders.”

Yu Yunxi slowly walked over and pulled up Gao Shixuan’s clothes. She thought that it was fortunate she did not ask a certain Prince Regent to follow her. Otherwise, he might have been blinded.

“Thank you for your concern, County Princess,” Gao Shixuan said with a smile and a nod. She was very calm. It was as though she did not understand the meaning behind Yu Yunxi’s words.

“I heard that Miss Gao also knows medicine. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to treat this wound,” Yu Yunxi said meaningfully as she raised an eyebrow.

Previously, Liu Xiaolan had said that their Little Junior Sister knew medicine. It should not be a problem for Gao Shixuan to treat such a small injury.

In fact, the doctor in the King of Xinan’s Residence was also quite skilled. It was not difficult for him to treat Gao Shixuan at all. The only reason he said there was nothing he could do about was due to the placement of Gao Shixuan’s injury, which was on her thigh. Conscious of damaging her reputation, the doctor could only give up since Yu Yunxi was around.

Gao Shixuan lowered her head and said modestly, “County Princess, I’ve only read a few medical journals. I can’t even distinguish herbs. How can I treat myself? I’m not as skilled as you. If I have half of your skills, I’ll be extremely happy.”

Yu Yunxi frowned as she stared at Gao Shixuan. She really could see through Gao Shixuan’s thoughts..
