"You know my aim is only the trial, not the princess or her clan." As if reading Pri Minister Fang's thoughts, Ye Tian Yun replied.
"We will see." Pri Minister Fang sighed.
"Alright." Ye Tian Yun stood up from his seat, "I will get going now."
"Hmm, take care."
Ye Tian Yun nodded and left the study hall.
Staring at the closed door, Pri Minister Fang Yuan let out a sigh.
'I need to et with Gao Kang today.'
…
It was late noon by the ti Ye Tian Yunv returned to his room.
'Gao Xuan didn't co…'
He rembered their agreent and Gao Xuan's words that everything would be arranged by noon.
'The Royal Edict must have affected the Gao Clan too.'
"Should I visit the Purple Spring Garden today?"
Ye Tian Yun didn't hold any particular interest, nor was he looking forward to eting with Princess Xin.
'I wonder if I was able to leave an impact on her?'
He didn't have any experience flirting.
So his goal was a bit harder for him to achieve. However, he was not considering his own looks.
'There's still an hour left before I need to go to the Purple Spring Garden, I should use it to cultivate.'
In the whole day, he had not cultivated at all.
'One hour will give four hours to cultivate.'
'With one more week in cultivation, I might have a breakthrough.'
Ye Tian Yun couldn't help but smile at the thought of this.
No matter how powerful or old a cultivator is, the feeling of breakthrough is always filled with excitent and anticipation.
"Let's start."
He closed his eyes and appeared in the Cultivation Space.
Without any delay, he started to focus on his cultivation.
…
The sun had half-disappeared by the ti Ye Tian Yun finished his cultivation session.
'Let's get to the princess again.'
Ye Tian Yun took a long breath and exhaled.
Opening his door, he left for the guest courtyard to et with jun XIe.
When he arrived, the first thing he noticed was the construction work going on throughout the place.
'Madam Xin has already started working on this.'
Ye Tian Yun smiled, and after inquiring about the guard on duty, he found out that his friends were temporarily in the courtyard near the practice grounds.
This courtyard was different from others as it only had a single room, and the decorations were also bare minimum.
One could easily describe the whole place in one word as 'Simple'.
The first ones he encountered were Bai Qing'er and Wu Qingwu sparring with their swords.
They stopped upon noticing Ye Tian Yun's arrival.
"Young Master Fang," Bai Qing'er cupped her fists, "What happened?"
"Nothing, I am here for Jun Xie." Ye Tian Yun replied, "Is he still busy playing with the herbs?"
"Yes," Wu Qingwu was the one to reply, "He hasn't co out since morning."
"Oh," Ye Tian Yun smiled at the latter's dedication.
"Are you heading out?" Wu Qingwu asked.
"Yes." Ye Tian Yun nodded, "I am heading out, and I need Jun Xie to co with ."
"Have a seat, I will call him," Wu Qingwu smiled and headed for the room at the far end of the courtyard.
"WHere's Zheng Xiang?" Ye Tian Yun asked Bai Qing'er.
"He has gone for closed-door cultivation."
"Oh, that's good." Ye Tian Yun nodded, "But if he cos out, tell him to et and not go for six months of closed-door cultivation as previously planned."
"I will." Bai Qing'er nodded.
Just then, Jun Xie walked out of the room, and after a little chat with Wu Qingwu, he asked Ye Tian Yun, "Are we going today too?"
"Yes." Ye Tian Yun nodded.
"Alright, but…" Jun Xie paused for a mont and said, "It's not my place to ask, but are you sure with this? You're getting married in three weeks."
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Don't worry, I have everything under control."
"Hm, alright." Jun Xie nodded, "Let's go then."
Saying farewell to the two young ladies, both of them headed out.
…
Twenty minutes later, they were standing inside the Purple Spring Garden.
This ti, they had gotten lucky and entered the Garden when a random young master's carriage had arrived.
Though this one was soone else, not Young Master Ling Yun, whom they previously encountered.
Ye Tian Yun had now already changed his face back to his original appearance and headed for the location where he previously encountered Princess Xin.
'Let's go.'
Just like yesterday, the scenery and the environnt were still the sa.
Ye Tian Yun soon reached the [Burger Queen] stall run by the girl.
But then the smile on his face froze when he noticed the chair was empty.
'She didn't co today.'
If Princess Xin didn't co, it ant the day was wasted.
'I don't have unlimited ti now. I will be leaving for the Thunder Valley in a week, and then I also need to leave for the Wu Kingdom. I need to make as deep an impression of mine on the Princess as I can….'
Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath and headed for a seat.
He wanted to wait for so ti for the Princess, but from what he knew about her eting with Wang Yao, there were clear indications that she didn't co regularly, and if she arrived, she would always be there in the Garden when the western horizon drowned half of the sun.
'But today, I need her to make an exception.'
Ye Tian Yun frowned.
Since Princess Xin was busy today, and if she still ca to the Garden, Ye Tian Yun was sure that he had succeeded to a certain degree.
And just as he took his seat, he noticed soone - soone he would never think to encounter in this Garden.
Madam Fang Bai, Fang Chen's mother, was in the Garden!
'Why is she here?'
Ye Tian Yun frowned as he noticed Madam Fang Bai in disguise seated on a chair not far from them.
