Chapter 465: The Second Princess's Scrutiny
"This……"
Liang An was stunned, hesitating and not knowing how to answer, and looked at his young master secretly for help.
Ji Fengwu followed his gaze, her black eyes slightly narrowed, her gentle brows full of scrutiny.
"Who is this?"
A sharp and scrutinizing gaze fell on her face, as if trying to see through the veil to her true appearance.
Although covered by the veil, Ji Yunxie still felt a little uncomfortable. He pursed his thin lips and bowed slightly.
"Meet my second cousin."
Thinking that this matter would be known to others sooner or later, Ji Yunxie had no intention of hiding anything.
Hearing his address, Ji Fengwu confirmed her guess, her pupils shrank slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"You are... Yun Xie?"
No wonder she guessed so.
First of all, the little servant Liang An has always been inseparable from her cousin.
Secondly, the figure of the man in front of him seemed familiar, and the people following him were obviously the female guards of Beichen Palace.
She had heard that King Beichen particularly doted on her cousin, and had never heard that there were other men in the mansion besides Ji Yunxie. In addition, Liang An followed her closely, which made Ji Fengwu have a bold guess in her heart.
Now Ji Yunxie's words confirmed her guess, how could Ji Fengwu not be shocked.
Second floor private room
Ji Fengwu's eyes frequently fell on Ji Yunxie, especially his legs.
This made Liang An, who was standing aside, frown fiercely and murmur in dissatisfaction in his heart.
What's wrong with the Second Princess? Even if she is the young master's cousin, there should not be physical contact between men and women. How can she just stare at the young master so casually? It's too frivolous.
Seeing the subtle atmosphere, Liang An couldn't help but cough lightly.
"Cough cough~"
He smiled and said, "Sir, I heard that Shiyilou has launched some new delicacies, which are very popular. I will go and take a look and order some of your favorite dishes."
Hearing this, Ji Yunxie nodded: "Well, remember to order me a dish of Jade Snow Lotus, which the prince likes."
When Liang An heard this, he smiled and said, "Oh, I see."
Ji Fengwu raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly: "It seems that my cousin and King Beichen have a very good relationship." Ji Yunxie pursed his lips and said nothing. He didn't know much about this second cousin. Although she looked gentle and elegant, he had no desire to get close to her.
Ji Fengwu narrowed her eyes and stared at Ji Yunxie's veil, with no smile in her eyes.
"Why aren't you talking, cousin? And why are you wearing a veil in such hot weather? Is it so shameful that you can't even look at me?"
The lukewarm tone revealed a hint of displeasure.
Ji Yunxie was slightly stunned, his eyelashes drooped slightly, his fair hands grasped the bottom of the veil, and he spoke in a gentle voice.
"Replying to my second cousin, Yun Xie had a rash recently and his appearance was a little indecent, which frightened you, second cousin, so he wore a veil. I hope you can forgive me."
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Ji Fengwu frowned, staring at Ji Yunxie's face hidden by the veil, with displeasure flashing in her eyes.
"I see."
Everyone knows that her cousin has become ugly because of the birthmark. Now she heard that he has a rash again. He must be so ugly that he cannot be seen in public. No wonder he has to cover it up.
Originally, she didn't care about Ji Yunxie's appearance, she was just looking for an opportunity to ask him some questions.
Ji Fengwu restrained her expression, glanced at Ji Yunxie's legs, and her eyes flashed with darkness.
"I don't know when my cousin's leg will be healed. I remember that the last time I saw my cousin, he was sitting in a wheelchair. How come he is healed now?"
The moment Ji Fengwu saw that Ji Yunxie's legs were intact, she was shocked.
How could a person who had been disabled for eight years be healed after returning from Liuzhou?
It's only been over a month, right?
Even if it is cured, it will take time to walk again.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that Ji Yunxie's disability was all fake.
Otherwise, how could it get better so quickly?
Ji Yunxie had long anticipated that his leg healing too quickly would arouse suspicion, and he had also prepared an excuse.
"The reason why Yun Xie can walk is that the prince accidentally received a bottle of bone-repairing plaster from a senior monk in his early years."
"It's just that Yun Xie was born weak, so he didn't take any medicine at first. It wasn't until a few days ago that the prince got some medicinal herbs in Liuzhou to help Yun Xie recuperate, and then he started to treat him."
"Oh?"
Ji Fengwu's eyes were dark and her tone was gentle, which was quite meaningful.
"I heard that the King of Beichen was assassinated on his way back to the capital, and you, my cousin, were seriously injured while blocking the arrow for the King of Beichen. It has only been a few days, but I saw that you are alive and kicking, and you don't look like someone who was seriously injured."
