Princess Xiangsi - Chapter 152
She nuzzled her face against his chest, sniffed, and said, "Li Ge, I won't hide it from you anymore. You can't leave me."
Her voice was soft, and the sense of loss in it caused a slight pang in Li Ge's heart.
He reached out and hugged her tightly.
"Woman, I won't leave you. Don't worry unnecessarily."
"real?!"

"Really, when have I ever lied to you?" Li Ge released Qing Yun, stared intently into her eyes, and said, "Now you can tell me what you've been hiding from me, right?"
Qingyun nodded and said softly, "Mm."
Li Ge and Qing Yun returned to the pear tree where they had been and sat down.
After a moment of contemplation, Qingyun suddenly said in a muffled voice, "I don't know what to say?"
“You woman…” Li Ge’s lips twitched, and finally he could only say helplessly, “I’m asking you a question, so tell me the truth.”
Upon hearing this, Qingyun nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice.
"When did you find out you weren't Princess Fengxue?"
Qingyun was taken aback, and couldn't help but secretly admire the man's keen observation.
"It's been a long time!"
Li Ge took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to roll his eyes, and said through gritted teeth, "The specific time."
After thinking for a long time, Qingyun replied, "When I returned to the Li Palace from Juechen Valley, I was controlled by the music of the zither and couldn't help but walk into the forest that had entered the array. Then you came to find me. Yes, that's right. That's when I regained my memories."
Li Ge was startled, recalling the complex look in her eyes he had seen in that grove of trees. So he hadn't been mistaken; she had indeed regained her memories. No wonder she had started acting strangely ever since they returned.
"And then you encountered people from the Qin Palace in the woods?"
Qingyun was startled, and her eyes immediately widened like copper bells.
"How...how...did you know?"
"I went to Immortal Valley a while ago and asked Elder Immortal. Elder Immortal told me a little bit about your background."
Qingyun narrowed her eyes, exuding a dangerous aura. "You went to Immortal Valley without telling me?"
"Because a certain woman wouldn't tell me, I had to ask her myself."
"How much did the old immortal tell you?" Knowing she was in the wrong, Qingyun had no choice but to change the subject.
"Not much. The old immortal only told me that your mother was Mei Jue and that you had developed martial arts skills that were even more advanced than before through playing the zither."
"that's all?"
"Okay. That's it."
"Nothing else?"
That's all.

Upon hearing Li Ge's answer, Qing Yun immediately deflated like a punctured balloon and slumped her head. After a while, she raised her head and said pitifully, "Waaah... Li Ge, I don't know any more than you. All I know is that this glass bead bracelet was given to me by my father and mother. Other than that, I don't know anything else."
"Then how could you believe what the people from Qin Palace said? Woman, with your intelligence, would you believe that?"
Qingyun blinked and said, "Of course I don't believe it. But they brought out a lot of things related to my mother. When I saw them, I had a very strong feeling that made me have to admit that she was my mother. I didn't have that feeling with my mother." Qingyun shrugged and smiled, "Maybe that's the blood relationship! It makes me believe without a doubt."
Didn't the people at Qin Palace tell you anything about your mother and father?
Qingyun shook her head. "They said it's not the right time yet."
"They say it's not the right time yet, so why don't you use your status as the palace master to force them to say it? I remember there used to be a woman who liked to use her status as a princess to coerce others into doing things."
Qingyun was taken aback, but this time she didn't widen her eyes. She was only slightly surprised, then calmly smiled and said, "You guessed it?"
Li Ge smiled and said, "It's not hard to guess. Since your mother is the Palace Master of Qin Palace, then you will naturally be the Palace Master who inherits her position."
Qingyun nodded.
At this moment, Qingyun seemed to remember something, and she cried out, "That's not fair! You promised me you'd never leave me when you were in the palace. I just answered so many questions for nothing to keep you from leaving! Now it's your turn to answer my questions!"
"good."
"When did you make the clothes I'm wearing? When did you teach Qingyi how to do this hairstyle? And..." Qingyun's voice lowered, "...and when you saw her wearing the clothes you made and wearing the hairstyle you created, you...you didn't even react!"
"Woman, with so many questions, which one do you want me to answer?"
"Let's answer together."
"Alright. This dress was made last month, and the hairstyle was taught to Qingyi a few days ago. As for why there was no reaction, it's because I didn't notice it."
Qingyun pouted, "I'm standing right in front of you, how could you not notice?!"
