Feng Jin glanced at Er Bao with a hint of disdain, thinking that when he grew up, he would be just like Ling Mohan.
Having one ice block at home was already enough. If there was another little ice block, it would surely freeze people to death.
Da Bao seemed to keenly sense Feng Jin's dislike for Er Bao. He quickly tugged at Feng Jin's collar, a smile spreading across his face, as radiant as the sun.
"Fortunately, at least Da Bao is a warm man and a little sun. Our family's warmth will depend on you from now on."
Feng Jin liked Da Bao more and more, wishing she could hold him in her arms all day. Who wouldn't like a sunny little warm man?
However, in the not-too-distant future, Feng Jin would deeply regret these words.
"Young Madam, the Princess of Xiliang has arrived," Cai Qing said hurriedly as she entered to report.
Feng Jin's hands, which were holding the child, stiffened, and she quickly handed Da Bao to the wet nurse beside her.
"Why is she here?" Lin Yuwei asked with confusion. She did not have a good impression of the Princess of Xiliang after the events at the palace banquet.
Knowing that the other party was already married with children, yet stubbornly insisting on marrying him, such a person was definitely not good. Lin Yuwei instinctively felt that the Princess of Xiliang's visit this time was definitely with ill intentions.
"Please ask her to wait in the front hall for a moment. I will be there shortly."
"Yes, Young Madam."
"Sister Feng Jin, the Princess of Xiliang is deeply in love with General Ling. Her visit this time is definitely not with good intentions. You must be careful when you meet her."
Lin Yuwei did not yet know the twists and turns of the story, so she naturally assumed that Murong Jinyun had come for Ling Mohan.
"I know. You come with me to see."
Feng Jin pulled Lin Yuwei towards the front hall. As they arrived, Murong Jinyun quickly stood up, "Young Madam Ling."
When she caught sight of Lin Yuwei beside Feng Jin, she paused slightly, quickly composing herself, "Princess Jing is also here. What a coincidence."
"This is Dongchu. What's coincidental about me being here? It's quite a journey for the Princess to come from Xiliang to Dongchu."
Lin Yuwei said sarcastically, showing no pleasant expression towards Murong Jinyun.
"I came for love, so there is no hardship."
She had already waited for three years and finally had an opportunity, so how could she let it pass?
Lin Yuwei took this to mean that she was determined not to give up on Ling Mohan, and immediately became angry, "Ling Mohan is already married with children. Must you hang yourself on a crooked tree? You are the Princess of Xiliang, so why are you so desperate to marry?"
"Princess Jing, you misunderstand me. I..."
Before Murong Jinyun could finish explaining, Lin Yuwei continued to pester her, "Just give up on this idea. Ling Mohan will never marry you. Hurry back to where you came from."
"Alright, you should say a few less words."
Feng Jin helplessly pulled Lin Yuwei back. How had she not noticed before that Lin Yuwei had such a sharp tongue?
"Princess, what is the reason for your visit?"
"I... I..."
Murong Jinyun stammered, the words at the tip of her tongue seemed to be stuck, making it difficult to speak.
After a long pause, Murong Jinyun finally said disjointedly, "I came here... I came to apologize to you."
"The previous incident was... I mistook the person, which caused such a big disturbance and caused trouble for you and General Ling. I apologize!"
Having spoken the words that had been suppressed in her heart, Murong Jinyun felt incredibly relieved and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Feng Jin observed Murong Jinyun's expression, taking in the subtle action of her sighing after speaking. Murong Jinyun, despite her fierce and unapproachable demeanor, was simply a young girl at heart.
"It's alright. Since it was a misunderstanding, there's no need to mention it again. Don't take it to heart."
The two of them had resolved their differences, but Lin Yuwei was still confused. "What do you two mean? You just said you mistook someone. Whom did you mistake?"
Lin Yuwei was bewildered by their conversation. According to the plot, shouldn't they be rivals in love?
When rivals meet, their faces turn red. Even if they don't get into a fight, they should at least be confrontational. But what was with this incredibly harmonious atmosphere?
Feng Jin meticulously explained the entire incident to Lin Yuwei, "That's all that happened. Do you understand now? Stop speaking harshly to her."
Lin Yuwei, surprised, reacted and realized there were so many stories involved. Putting aside other things, she truly admired Murong Jinyun's courage.
If it were her, she probably wouldn't have been able to do this and would have given up long ago.
"I apologize. What I said earlier might have been too extreme. Please don't take it to heart."
It was really a big misunderstanding. She felt too embarrassed to face Murong Jinyun.
"It's nothing. It's true that I was too extreme before. Others might have reacted even more strongly than you."
After returning from Lianxin Pavilion, she had carefully thought about it. What she had done was indeed a bit excessive. Although it was to protect her love, it was also a form of harm to others.
Especially since it turned out to be a misunderstanding, she felt extremely awkward.
"By the way, this jade token originally belonged to General Ling. I've occupied it for so long, please help me return it to General Ling."
She had already found skilled craftsmen to join the jade token as one. In the end, it had to be returned to its rightful owner.
"This jade token is a peace charm I obtained from Huguo Temple. By a twist of fate, it became your token of love and has great significance to you and Gu Beichen. I took the liberty of giving this jade token to you. Whether you and Gu Beichen end up together or not, it can serve as a memento."
This jade token was insignificant to them, but it was the token of love between Murong Jinyun and Gu Beichen. Keeping it was useless, so it was better to go with the flow and do a good deed.
"Thank you, Young Madam. I will accept it without any refusal." Murong Jinyun no longer declined and took the jade token. This jade token had been with her for three years, and she would indeed be unaccustomed to returning it.
"Princess, may I ask presumptuously, how do you plan to handle the matter with Gu Beichen?"
Feng Jin's gossip spirit was instantly ignited, and she leaned closer to Murong Jinyun to inquire.
"Right, how do you plan to handle it?" Lin Yuwei also joined in the fun.
With their questions coming one after another, Murong Jinyun became shy and replied coyly, "I have already written to my father about this matter, but ultimately, I will have to listen to my father's wishes."
After all, it was a matter of lifelong marriage. She still dared not make her own decisions and had to wait for her father's approval to make a decision.
