Ji Fengyan hurriedly caught the figure that had pounced at her. When she steadied her gaze, she had almost cried from laughing.
The Fourth Princess was hugging Ji Fengyan’s elbows tightly with her face covered in tears and snot. She looked at Ji Fengyan with her teary red eyes.
“Ji Fengyan you didn’t die? You really didn’t die? Wuwuwu… don’t you scare me again,” the Fourth Princess touched Ji Fengyan’s warm elbows and checked that Ji Fengyan was really fine. Then, she started to bawl even more.
Ji Fengyan looked awkwardly at the Fourth Princess, who was hugging her and sobbing her hearts out, and then at the Emperor with a helpless look.
The Emperor laughed softly. “My fourth child hit it off really well with you. When she heard that you were going to the capital inst.i.tute, she had pestered me to make you stay and be her guard, and her pester truly gave me a headache.”
Upon hearing what the Emperor said, the Fourth Princess was unhappy.
“Father, if you had agreed to my request then, why would there be so many incidents? After such a huge incident, Ruse had been severely injured and Fengyan had almost died… You are not giving me Fengyan and have sent away Ruse. You are too mean…” The Fourth Princess’s childish rant made the Emperor laugh uncontrollably.
The fact that Liu Ruse was a terminator was indeed surprising, and even the Emperor knew about it only after sending her to the capital inst.i.tute.
When Liu Ruse left, the Fourth Princess had also cried for a long time. Until Liu Ruse was sent back sickly, the Fourth Princess had almost cried her eyes out.
“No matter what, Fengyan and Ruse had finally returned. Father, you have to give me the permission to not let any of them run off again. Otherwise, what do I do if they are injured again?” the Fourth Princess whimpered as she looked at the Emperor grudgingly.
The Emperor looked his own daughter, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
Before the Emperor could speak, a cold voice sounded in the main palace.
“Isn’t fourth sister being too childish? Liu Ruse and Ji Fengyan were originally terminators and had the duty of fighting the demon clan. If everything was like what you had said, that they would stay in the capital city, then in future when the demon clan attacks the boundary who would lead the army to fight the demon clan?” with the cold voice that sounded, the Eldest Princess made her entrance slowly.
Upon seeing the Eldest Princess, the expression on the Fourth Princess immediately stiffened. She did not dare to even look into the eyes of the Eldest Princess, so it was obvious that she was scared of her.
“Why are you here?” the Emperor could not help but be puzzled when he saw the Eldest Princess.
The Eldest Princess paid her respects gracefully.
“Father, just now I heard that Ji Fengyan had returned safely, so I had wanted to come over for a look. Even though I have some misunderstanding with Ji Fengyan previously, now that she could return safely, I am also glad for her. After all, Ji Fengyan contributed a lot to the incident at the capital inst.i.tute and prevented additional losses to the Kingdom of the Sacred Dragon. How could I not meet her after she had made such huge achievements?”
Every sentence that the Eldest Princess was saying was complimenting Ji Fengyan for her bravery and this made Ji Fengyan raise her brows instinctively.
Ji Fengyan did not believe that the Eldest Princess would change this much in such a short amount of time.
Previously, the Eldest Princess had used all her authority to try to make things difficult for her, yet now she had suddenly changed to complimenting her. This made Ji Fengyan feel that something was amiss.
“Yes, Ji Fengyan is a rare talent and the fortune of our kingdom. Little Four, stop fooling around.” The Emperor smiled as he nodded.
