“I didn’t expect Mother to bring Feng Zixiu back as well. I wasn’t in the capital when Junjin was in trouble…”

Feng Yili felt a stab in his heart as well when he spoke about this matter. After all, Yu Junjin was not just Yu Yunxi’s son; Yu Junjin was his son as well. If he had been there, he would have protected Yu Junjin even if it ant risking his life.

Yu Yunxi was at a loss after she heard Feng Yili’s words. She did not know if she should believe him again.

“A blood test isn’t enough. I’ve been looking for Little Junior Sister all these years, hoping to clarify my relationship with Feng Zixiu. I didn’t expect Mother to bring Feng Zixiu to look for trouble with you…” Feng Yili said guiltily. This matter was his fault. He did not handle the matter regarding Feng Zixiu well and ended up hurting Yu Yunxi and Yu Junjin.

“Alright, let’s put that child aside for now. You know that Xinan is very important to , right? Why did you stop from returning to Xinan? Why did you rob the rations?” Yu Yunxi questioned him. She could not forgive him for this.

Faced with these questions, Feng Yili, who had been anxious to explain himself earlier, fell silent.

Seeing that he was silent, Yu Yunxi’s expression turned cold.

‘So he did it intentionally?’

She picked up the bowl of dicine and handed it to him. She pushed him away, saying, “Alright, Prince Regent, drink up and leave.”

She did not expect Feng Yili to stagger a few steps back when she pushed him. She frowned and said coldly, “Feng Yili, stop pretending. Although your internal injuries are serious, they’re not to this extent.”

However, after saying that, she quickly realized that sothing was wrong. She put the dicine down and grabbed his arm before using her other hand to remove his robe.

Seeing this, Feng Yili wanted to stop her. However, she was faster. A ripping sound rang in the air as she tore his top. Following that, she saw a dark palm print on his chest. She could tell that the palm print had been there for at least half a month.

She looked up and asked anxiously, “You… You were injured before coming to Xinan?”

‘No wonder… When he fought Nan Xun earlier, he clearly had the upper hand. I couldn’t understand how he was injured. As it turns out, he was already injured, to begin with…”

“I’m fine,” Feng Yili said with a frown, trying to cover himself up.

Yu Yunxi forcefully held his hand and checked his pulse. Her fingers trembled after that. She raised her head and asked angrily, “Are you crazy? Your previous injuries could easily break your ridians and turn you into a cripple, but you still dared to fight with Nan Xun?”

Feng Yili comforted Yu Yunxi in a soft voice, saying, “I know my body. It’s fine.”

“How did you get injured? Tell ,” Yu Yunxi said, flustered and anxious.

Feng Yili was silent for a long ti before he replied, “Before you left the capital, did you et Consort Qin?”

“Yes.”

“I once told you not to investigate the imperial family. I thought that keeping you away from them would protect you. I was wrong…” Feng Yili said with a wry smile, “The warm jade has always been with , but I’m unwilling to return it to you…

‘Didn’t Feng Weizhou say he had given the warm jade to his Little Junior Sister?’

Yu Yunxi was briefly stunned, but realization dawned on her quickly. She realized she had been muddle-headed. Feng Weizhou was despicable; how could she have believed his words?

‘But why did Feng Yili suddenly ntion the warm jade?’

At this mont, Feng Yili brought the warm jade out.

Yu Yunxi recognized it at a glance. It was the warm jade her mother had left for her.

Feng Yili looked like he was lost in his thoughts as he said, “I rember that five years ago, you placed the warm jade on , saying that it was given to you by your mother. I also rember you said that it could save one’s life at the critical mont.”

At that ti, she was so weak, but she still did her best to protect him. On the other hand, he failed to protect her until now.

“Yes, that was what my mother said. Perhaps the warm jade had dicinal effects?” Yu Yunxi said with a frown.

Feng Yili pulled a dagger out and ruthlessly cut his palm.

“You…” Yu Yunxi was anxious when she saw this.

‘He has really gone mad! He actually injured himself!’

However, Yu Yunxi’s words got stuck in her throat when she saw the following scene. She watched in shock as the warm jade absorbed Feng Yili’s blood. At the sa ti, Feng Yili’s face turned paler and paler.

Sensing that sothing was amiss, Yu Yunxi wanted to take the warm jade away. However, strangely, she could not remove the warm jade from Feng Yili’s hand. It seed to be stuck to his palm and could not be removed no matter what. She used a lot of strength and even had to use her internal energy before she was finally able to remove it.

When the warm jade landed on the ground, it did not shatter. Instead, it flashed with light.

‘It… It sucks human blood?” Yu Yunxi asked Feng Yili in shock.

“It can save lives, but it can also take away lives,” Feng Yili said solemnly.

“Why did Mother have such a thing? Why do Feng Weizhou and the Empress want it?” Yu Yunxi muttered. Her mind was in a ss.

“I heard that the warm jade is related to a hidden treasure. Perhaps that’s why Feng Weizhou and the Crown Prince covet it. As for the warm jade’s thirst for blood, I only found out about it when I was injured previously. If I didn’t discover it in ti, I’m afraid it would’ve already taken my life.”

“Why didn’t you tell about it? Why did you refuse to give it back to without giving a reason?” Yu Yunxi questioned indignantly.

Instead of answering the questions, Feng Yili asked solemnly, “Did you think Yu Zhongcheng killed your mother?”

“You an…”

“I found out so things over the years. A few days after your mother’s accident, the Empress went to the Yu Residence. Apart from that, after your mother was buried in a mass grave, a man dressed head to toe in black visited that place. That man also appeared in Consort Qin’s residence in the palace three years ago…” Feng Yili said in a low voice.

“Are you saying that my mother was killed by those people and that it had sothing to do with the warm jade?” Yu Yunxi asked in shock.

“The Empress knows that the warm jade is . As such, they can only attack if they want the warm jade,” Feng Yili said in a deep voice.

‘So this is why he refused to return it to …’

Yu Yunxi lowered her gaze. Her emotions were very complicated at this mont.

“The Empress isn’t the most difficult one to deal with. Consort Qin is the most difficult to deal with. Until now, I still can’t guess her motive and the identity of the person behind her…” Feng Yili said, “On the day Junjin was injured, I was away from the capital because my n found out that the black-clad man from three years ago appeared again. I chased after him and accidentally heard him telling his subordinate to kill you during the journey back to Xinan…”

‘The black-clad man wanted to kill on the way back to Xinan, and he was with Consort Qin… So Consort Qin wants dead as well?’

For a mont, Yu Yunxi did not know how to describe her feelings. She looked at Feng Yili and said in a low voice, “Your injuries…”

“They were from my fight with him. His martial arts are much more powerful than mine,” Feng Yili said solemnly as he shook his head.

‘Much more powerful than him? How terrifying is he then?’

Yu Yunxi’s expression changed drastically upon hearing these words.

“That black-clad man’s martial arts are unfathomable. I’m afraid he’s not alone. Perhaps he belongs to an organization. That’s why I couldn’t rest assured about you returning to Xinan…” Feng Yili sighed and said dejectedly, “Initially, I planned to make full preparations before returning to Xinan with you. However, you were in a hurry that day. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to stop you so I resorted to using that thod…

Feng Yili felt very regretful about his actions. If he had explained earlier, there would not be so many misunderstandings.

Yu Yunxi took a deep breath to suppress her emotions before she asked, “Then why did you steal the rations?”

“After you left the capital, I followed you. During the journey, I got rid of those who were lying in wait for you, hoping to launch a sneak attack. However, do you think that black-clad man would give up so easily?” Feng Yili said helplessly.

Realization dawned on Yu Yunxi imdiately.

“You’re saying there was sothing wrong with the rations and the people escorting it?”
